"I see." Qin Zhao nodded.

Fang Tianying said, "I'm in a hurry to come out today. I'll take the person back first and come back to apologize to my benefactor in person another day."

Qin Zhao nodded in agreement.

Fang Tianying bowed to him and left with his men.

The young master of the Fang family came and left so quickly that the villagers present were a little slow to react.

Throughout Linxi Village, including several neighboring villages, everyone knew the Fang family. The Fang family was the largest family in Heyang Town, and they were from a completely different world.

How could Qin Zhao know such a big shot?

However, Fang Tianying did arrive in time. Once the group left, Chen Laosi was suddenly left isolated and helpless.

He completely lost his support and rushed over to grab Qin Zhao's collar. "Tell me, where did you hide the fish? Huh? I clearly saw you feeding the fish last night. You know who is lying!"

He used too much force and Qin Zhao staggered and hit the door panel.

Qin Zhao's expression remained calm as always, and he said softly in a voice that no one else could hear, "So what?"

Chen Laosi was stunned.

"...Do you have evidence to make them believe you?"

Chen Laosi raised his head. The sickly boy who used to be kind to others and even a little tolerant looked down at him, with a hint of irony in his eyes.

A layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on Chen Laosi's back.

In a daze, several villagers beside him came forward and pulled him away.

Li Dali asked with concern: "Qin Zhao, are you okay?"

Qin Zhao lowered his eyes and shook his head: "It's okay."

He walked up to the village chief and said politely, "I hope the village chief will make the decision for me regarding today's matter."

The head of Linxi Village had always been fair in his work. He sighed heavily and said, "Old Fourth Chen, just do as you said and go home to pack your things."

"What..." Chen Laosi's face turned pale in an instant. "No, don't chase me away. I've lived here since I was born. Where else can I go? Village chief, please spare me for my mother's sake. Don't chase me away!"

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place." The village chief shook his head. "Everyone, please go away. Qin Zhao, I want to apologize to your husband on behalf of everyone. We have offended many villagers today."

Qin Zhao: "Thank you, Village Chief."

Qin Zhao took one last look at Chen Laosi, walked past him and went back into the house.

Ever since he lost all his memories, Qin Zhao had been living under someone else's roof and rarely made enemies. But today, this person not only caused him trouble, but also bullied his little fish.

Qin Zhao saw Xiaoyu's aggrieved and frightened look when the group of people broke into the house.

Just for this reason, there's no way he'd just let it go.

The villagers in front of the house gradually dispersed, and Chen Laosi's shouting and crying could still be heard through the door, but it gradually faded away.

Qin Zhao walked into the bedroom and saw the little monster wearing his clothes and sitting by the bed.

The dress was too big for him, covering him from head to toe. His fishtail had transformed into legs, and a pair of white feet stretched out from the edge of the dress, dangling gently over the edge of the bed.
