Chapter 212 Selflessness
When Zhao Xi saw Shang Zhiqing's attitude towards Old Man Gong and Old Man Cai, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Yes, yes, Lao Gong, Lao Cai, let's go inside and talk." Zhao Xi smiled and invited everyone inside.
Supported by Tian Jinhua and Zhao Xing, Zhao Lichun quietly retreated, attempting to escape.
"Where are you going?" Sweetie suddenly asked, drawing everyone's attention back to the three of them.
Tian Jinhua, already feeling guilty, was startled. Seeing that it was Tian Niu who had ruined her plans, she was furious and raised her hand to hit her, yelling, "You brat, what are you yelling for? Ouch..."
A large hand appeared just in time and grabbed her raised hand.
Tian Sheng, his face contorted with rage, gripped Tian Jinhua's hand tightly, veins bulging, his grip strong enough to make Tian Jinhua scream in pain.
"Tian Sheng, how dare you? Let go!"
Tian Sheng ignored him, his eyes flashing with ruthlessness, and the force in his hands increased more and more, terrifyingly so.
Tian Jinhua felt like her bones were about to shatter. Her arrogance vanished, replaced by panic. Her mouth started babbling without thinking, a mix of soft and hard words: "Tian Sheng, Xiao Sheng, I'm your aunt! If you dare touch me, you're committing a heinous crime! Wake up! Don't do anything foolish… With your current status, if you commit another offense, you'll be dragged out and shot…"
Upon hearing this, Tian Sheng's expression grew increasingly grim, his eyes brimming with resentment that seemed poised to burst forth and destroy all injustice in the world.
"Brother, brother." Tian Niu was terrified and anxiously grabbed Tian Sheng's arm, whether because of Tian Jinhua's words or Tian Sheng's current state, it was unclear.
Su Xiao frowned slightly, immediately stepped forward to the group, and said to Tian Sheng, "Tian Sheng, let her go first, let's talk this out."
Tian Jinhua was right when she said that Tian Sheng, given his identity, cannot afford to commit any more crimes.
Tian Sheng felt extremely frustrated. He looked at Su Xiao, and he was also influenced by her today. Seeing how readily she could teach that person a lesson, he became excited as well.
Tian Sheng released her grip, and Tian Jinhua, now free, immediately took two steps back, shouting, "You bastard, you're utterly lawless! How dare you lay a hand on me! I'm going to report you..."
Tian Sheng stared at her with disgust, without saying a word.
Su Xiao wasn't going to tolerate her. She turned to Zhao Xi and said, "Secretary Zhao, aren't you going to do anything about this? I originally thought our Xiaheshan Village was a place with simple folk customs and outstanding people, but I never expected... ha..."
Su Xiao sneered, glanced at Zhao Xing and his family of three, and said indifferently, "These are Secretary Zhao's relatives?"
Zhao Xi was furious with this family. She secretly regretted cleaning up their messes in the past, which made them more and more outrageous and reckless.
"Su Zhiqing, it's just a surname, how can we be considered relatives? Don't worry, Zhao Lichun's crimes are clear to everyone, there's no room for argument, I will definitely handle it impartially and will not show favoritism." Zhao Xi said, distancing himself from the matter and making a promise.
Zhao Xing's family was dumbfounded. "Brother, you can't just abandon us. Lichun is your nephew."
"Shut up." Zhao Xi said sternly, "Zhao Lichun's mistake was egregious and deserves to be punished. Jianguo, take him away and lock him up first. Notify the village committee members to hold a meeting early tomorrow morning to deal with this."
Upon hearing this, Captain Zhao Jianguo immediately signaled to the two squad leaders to work together to pull the person away.
Su Xiao frowned slightly, glanced at Zhao Lichun, and said nothing.
