Chapter 24: Can his people be bullied at will?
Zhou Tao lifted Zhang Xiuhong up with one hand. Looking at his trouble-making wife, he was filled with rage.
Ever since he married this shrew, he hasn't had a single day of peace.
It would be bad enough if he just made a scene at home, but now he's even going to the family compound and wrestling with people on the ground, completely losing face.
What upset him the most was that... the person he beat was his boss's wife.
What a sin!!!
Chen Wenzhong followed closely behind. Seeing that his wife Yang Qiuxia's hair was a mess and her face was scratched, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
He was the head of a regiment, and his wife was fighting with the wives of his subordinates. How could this be...
"This is a family compound. If you want to fight, go to the training ground. I'll let you fight to your heart's content!" Chen Wenzhong shouted at the top of his voice.
He is a rough guy and treats his family and lover the same way he did in the military camp.
Yang Qiuxia's heart trembled at his shout. She sat on the ground for a long time, but Chen Wenzhong refused to help her. She cried even more sadly.
"Your wife was beaten up, and not only did you not help me, you even yelled at me..."
Yang Qiuxia cried so hard that she felt wronged.
Chen Wenzhong glared at her: "You are so pretentious, don't I know you? Hurry up and get up, don't embarrass yourself here..."
Yang Qiuxia had no choice but to stand up angrily and stand behind Chen Wenzhong.
Shen Sisi stayed in Gu Chengfeng's arms the whole time, looking at the men from the two families.
Zhou Tao has a delicate appearance, is tall and thin like a walking bamboo pole, and seems to be a good-tempered person. He must have been bullied by Zhang Xiuhong a lot.
Chen Wenzhong is completely different. He is big and strong, with very dark skin. You can see that he has a bad temper, is straightforward in his actions, and is quite patriarchal.
One can't control his wife, and the other can't play with his wife.
No wonder Zhang Xiuhong and Yang Qiuxia dared to act so arrogantly in the compound and cause trouble everywhere.
"Tell me, what's going on?" Chen Wenzhong asked calmly.
Just as Zhang Xiuhong was about to speak, Yang Qiuxia started to complain: "It was her. She told me that Shen Zhiqing had found a mistress outside. I just chatted with her for a few minutes, but Shen Zhiqing overheard us... and then he attacked us."
The further she spoke, the more guilty her tone became.
Zhang Xiuhong instantly broke down and jumped up, wanting to tear her apart.
"Nonsense! Believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart..."
Zhou Tao quickly hugged his wife around the waist and pulled her back to the ground: "Enough! Zhang Xiuhong, are you done yet..."
Zhang Xiuhong was so frightened by his shout that she froze in place: "You...you actually yelled at me..."
"I should have yelled at you a long time ago. I've spoiled you to the point of being lawless. You even dared to attack the leader's family members."
"I..." Zhang Xiuhong's eyes instantly turned red: "Zhou Tao, she clearly framed me and bullied me, why are you so ungrateful? Are you still a man..."
"What did you say? Say it again?" Zhou Tao was also completely angry.
He made some mistakes in the camp today and was called in by Captain Chen to be criticized. He was also scolded by his wife in public and was worried that he had no place to vent his anger!
Zhang Xiuhong felt her husband's angry gaze and suddenly felt a little scared.
"What are you looking at? I'll settle the score with you when I get home..."
Zhang Xiuhong turned her head and spat at Yang Qiuxia: "I treated you as a sister, and you hurt me like this. From today on, I, Zhang Xiuhong, will never reconcile with you!"
Yang Qiuxia bit her lip angrily: "Okay, from now on it's either you or me."
No one expected that the duo, who were once close friends, would become enemies like this.
Besides deep contemplation...
From the moment she deliberately put the hat on me, I knew they would start a fight.
In order to protect themselves, the two will definitely blame each other and turn from "comrades-in-arms" into "hostiles."
Chen Wenzhong was also in a difficult position as things had turned out like this.
On one side is his own wife, and on the other side is his subordinate's wife. It is wrong to help his relative. If it gets out, others will think that they are not united enough.
So he frowned and looked at the woman in Gu Chengfeng's arms: "Chen Zhiqing, tell me, what's going on?"
After being called, Shen Sisi stood up from Gu Chengfeng's arms and calmly pulled her thin shirt.
"This is what happened..." Shen Sisi recounted what happened in an orderly manner without omitting anything.
At the end, she choked up and said, "Captain Chen, Yang Qiuxia and Zhang Xiuhong are not just spreading rumors. I suggest you investigate thoroughly."
Chen Wenzhong was so angry that he was shaking all over and his old face was ashamed. He never thought that his wife could say such vicious words.
Saying that someone is finding a mistress outside, isn't that forcing him to die?
Zhou Tao standing by was also filled with shame and anger. He knew that Zhang Xiuhong was a big mouth and always liked to make trouble, but he didn't expect the nature of her behavior to be so bad.
It’s no wonder that Shen Zhiqing fought back. If it were him, he might have beaten him even harder.
During this period, Gu Chengfeng didn't say a word, his face became darker and darker, and the coldness and hostility on his face were about to burst out.
Without waiting for Chen Wenzhong to speak, he said in a low, hoarse voice, "I believe Sisi. She will never do anything to let me down."
"But this incident has damaged her reputation and also involves safety issues. We must investigate and use facts to give us justice."
He knew that the "mistress" they were talking about was Heizi, but he was not in a hurry to clarify. Instead, he deliberately asked Chen Wenzhong to send someone to investigate.
After all, he is Shen Sisi's fiancé, and it would be difficult for him to silence the public by exposing Heizi's identity.
They might even make up a story that he was deliberately covering up for her and trying to hide her shame.
It would be better to let others investigate and clear Shen Si Si's name.
Besides, let these people learn a lesson!
Were they also the ones who spread rumors and bullied Gu Chengfeng?
Since Gu Chengfeng had spoken, Chen Wenzhong could only wave his hand and call the guards around him.
"Take your men to the docks and find a bald man in his twenties with half of his left ear cut off. Find out what he does."
The guard saluted: "Roger that!"
Seeing that they were serious, Yang Qiuxia glared at Shen Sisi fiercely.
It's all her!
This troublemaker!
She was so nervous that she broke out in cold sweats, fearing that the bald man was of bad character and would get into trouble himself and also implicate her husband, Mr. Chen.
In a hurry, she walked to Shen Sisi in three or two steps, lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "I'm sorry, Shen Zhiqing, we were wrong in this matter. We shouldn't have made up stories about you behind your back. I really haven't seen that man. Otherwise, let's forget about it?"
"Forget it?" A layer of frost covered Shen Sisi's dark eyes. "For you, this matter is just a light kiss, but what about me? I have to endure the insults and spit, who will say let it go for me?"
Yang Qiuxia wiped her eyes pretentiously and said, "I understand. If you want to blame someone, blame Zhang Xiuhong. I also believed her lies."
He cleared himself with just one sentence.
Zhang Xiuhong was so angry that her face turned red. Just as she was about to yell, Zhou Tao pulled her back forcefully.
He warned in a low voice: "That's enough! I know who you are. Don't you think you haven't made enough trouble?"
"It's fine if you're just a chatterbox normally, but now you're going too far and even spreading obscene rumors. How could I, Zhou Tao, end up with a woman like you?"
"If you still want to live like this, go and apologize to Shen Zhiqing. If you don't want to live like this, forget it. We'll file for divorce tomorrow!"
