Ji Chen's expression changed drastically. "What did you say? Say it again?"
"I just got back from the police station. Anyway, my sister-in-law was badly injured. When they opened the sack, there was blood on the corner of her mouth. I guess she resisted fiercely and was beaten by those thugs. I took her to the hospital..."
"Give me the car keys." Before Gu Xiaohei could finish speaking, Ji Chen stepped into the car.
Gu Xiaohei tossed the keys to him, saying, "The lime hasn't been added yet."
"Get out of my way!" Without waiting for the workers to carry the bags away, he unloaded the lime, and bags of lime fell onto the freshly laid cement surface.
Where is your sister-in-law?
"The contract should be signed at Hong'an..."
Ji Chen floored the gas pedal and made a sharp turn, causing everyone present to cough and cough, swallowing a mouthful of dust.
Gu Xiaohei looked helplessly at the messy scene and muttered, "If I had known it would turn out like this, I wouldn't have reminded him to unload the goods."
Li Guochao sighed, "This means losing a day's wages. With so many workers, this kid is being too reckless for his wife."
Ji Chen arrived at the gate of Hong'an Factory just in time to see Jiang Xue walking out excitedly.
Ji Chen quickly opened the car door and ran out, saying, "I'll take you to the hospital."
Jiang Xue was startled by Ji Chen's sudden appearance. "Don't pull me!"
Jiang Xue's arm was also injured, and Ji Chen's rough pinch made her arm ache.
Ji Chen realized he had used too much force. "Did I hurt you?"
Jiang Xue looked at the somewhat dull-witted Ji Chen, wondering how this person could not even care about others.
Unfortunately, they ran into the couple who were returning to their posts, and to make matters worse, the older woman was also following behind them.
"Girl, thank you so much! You're our savior!" The couple expressed their gratitude to Jiang Xue from afar.
Jiang Xue glanced at the aunt behind them, whose face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
When the older woman saw the bruises on Jiang Xue's face and the two people pulling and tugging at each other, she took off her canvas shoes without saying a word.
He rushed straight to Ji Chen, grabbed Ji Chen's collar, and smashed Ji Chen with the sole of his shoe.
"I told you not to hit your wife, I told you not to hit her! You don't cherish such a good wife, and you still hit her."
Ji Chen was being beaten and screaming, but although he was very confused, as a man, he couldn't bring himself to fight back.
Jiang Xue quickly stepped forward and grabbed the woman, saying, "No, no, this isn't my husband."
"Huh?" The woman, holding up her canvas shoe, stopped in mid-air, completely bewildered. Oh no, she'd hit the wrong person. How embarrassing.
“This is not my husband, this is my cousin. My injuries were caused by Liu Daxing. He was trying to take me to the hospital, so there was a scuffle.”
Ji Chen felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. What did he mean by "I'm her cousin"? "I'm her husband."
"ah......"
Jiang Xue stomped on Ji Chen's foot to shut him up.
"He's my husband's cousin from his side of the family, and he's a really nice guy," Jiang Xue explained awkwardly.
The woman's heart, which had just been in her throat, instantly returned to its place.
“Go back and tell her husband that if he dares to hit her again, then this auntie will find her a new husband to marry.”
The aunt patted Jiang Xue's arm. "Girl, don't be afraid. If your husband still beats you, you should get a divorce. Don't worry about no one wanting you as a second wife. There are still people who want you as a second wife in our city. I'll introduce you to my nephew. He's a craftsman. Don't be afraid. You should make a clean break."
