When Bai Yajing brought Liu Meiling to the Zhao family's house, she saw the big-character poster on the door.
"They've arrived!"
"Let's go in then!"
The two of them simply climbed over the wall and went in without even knocking.
Upon entering the main hall, they found Zhao Qiang and Zhao Gang lying on the ground, their faces bruised and swollen from being beaten.
Meanwhile, Zhao's parents were huddled in a corner, panting heavily, with their third son's child in their arms.
"The traitor! The traitor!!"
"What a misfortune for your family! You will be punished!"
Liu Chun hid in her room with her two children, completely unlike her unreasonable and domineering self during the day. Instead, she acted like a quail, not daring to utter a single word.
Even when her own husband was being beaten and wailing in pain, she didn't come out to take a look.
Ma Pingchuan, Qiao Yu, and Zhao Liang sat to one side waiting for them to come over.
Bai Yajing ignored the two old men over there and walked straight to the two brothers, squatting down in front of them.
"Tell me, who came up with the idea to ruin our reputation?"
Zhao Qiang subconsciously turned to look at the third brother. It really was the third brother who came up with the idea, and it was he who persuaded the two elders through persistent pleading.
Zhao Gang's eyes flickered slightly, and he silently turned his head to bury himself, but halfway through, he realized that doing so would be an admission of guilt, so he quickly stopped.
Seeing his stupid appearance, everyone wanted to facepalm. Bai Yajing scoffed and kicked him a few times with her toes. "Speak! Don't test my patience."
Zhao Gang stammered. He didn't want to talk about it, but he had just been beaten up and was still in a lot of pain, so he was really scared.
Bai Yajing had no patience to listen to his whining. She picked up a wooden stick that had fallen to the ground and tossed it in her hand.
"I hate being schemed against the most. It's okay if you don't tell me, I can find out very quickly."
However, since your family dared to provoke me and scheme against me, this matter will not be so easily resolved.
Since you're the mastermind, it's not unreasonable for me to take one of your legs, is it?
After saying that, she raised the wooden stick in her hand and was about to hit his leg.
Terrified, Zhao Gang retreated repeatedly, yelling, "Ah!!!! No!!!!"
Zhao Liang, however, cooperated with Bai Yajing to hold him down firmly, preventing him from escaping.
Just as the stick was about to fall, Zhao Gang's face contorted with terror, and he roared, "I'll talk!!!"
Bai Yajing clicked her tongue lightly, but still put away the wooden stick in her hand. "Do you have to see the coffin before you shed tears! Tell me, who is it!"
Zhao Gang was already covered in sweat, and he swallowed hard.
"Yes, it was a middle-aged man. He gave me two hundred yuan and asked me to take my parents to ruin your reputation, and preferably make the Bai family's Xinsu store go out of business!"
"After it's done, I'll get another three hundred yuan!"
Upon hearing this, the group exchanged bewildered glances.
Ma Pingchuan and Qiao Yu were thinking about who else had their eyes on the factory recently.
Zhao Liang and Liu Meiling were so angry that their faces turned red and their necks bulged. Liu Meiling couldn't help but swear, "Damn it!"
Where did this piece of trash come from! Why can't they stand to see others doing well?!
Zhao Liang was so angry that he raised his fist and beat the third brother again.
Bai Yajing thought for a long time but couldn't think of anyone suspicious. She stopped Zhao Liang, who was about to hit her again, and turned to look at Zhao Gang, who was no longer recognizable.
"You don't even know him, yet you dare to offend me for his sake?"
It's not that she's exaggerating; the Bai family has a prestigious reputation, and she's also the director of a military hospital, so most people wouldn't easily choose to offend her.
