The autumn harvest is in progress.
"Changfeng, let's invite our parents, elder brother and sister-in-law, younger brother and younger sister over for dinner tonight."
Qiu Shui was busy for two days. When the Gu family members came home, they ate a few bites and went straight to sleep. They all lost weight.
It just so happens that Gu Changfeng is home today, so he can help cook and give everyone a nice meal.
"Okay, I'll go in a bit."
Whatever my wife says goes.
These past few days, his parents have been busy with farm work, and Gu Changfeng has been feeling very sorry for them. If it weren't for his busy work schedule, he would have gone to the fields to help with the work long ago.
"What does my wife want to eat? I'll go to town and buy it for her."
We have vegetables at home, but not much meat.
"Then go to town and buy a chicken. There's some dried cuttlefish that Grandpa and Grandma sent over last time in the fridge. It'll be perfect for making cuttlefish and chicken soup."
"Buy another pork knuckle; I'm craving the skin of Dongpo pork knuckle. And..."
Ruan Qiushui listed the dishes she wanted to eat, her little mouth never stopping.
"Okay, that's enough."
Gu Changfeng silenced his wife's mouth with his own; if she continued, the whole feast would be over.
"Alright then, that's all for now."
Ruan Qiushui thought about it and decided not to make things difficult for her husband.
"Then you stay home and rest, I'll be right back."
My younger sister went to the fields to help with the autumn harvest, and there's no one at home to take care of my wife right now, so she just has to be good on her own.
Gu Changfeng rode away on his bicycle, and Ruan Qiushui decided to go back to her room for a nap.
"Woof woof woof, woof woof woof."
After an unknown amount of time, Hei Zi suddenly started barking incessantly in the courtyard.
Ruan Qiushui sensed something was wrong and quickly got up.
At this moment, two burly men in white clothes with their faces covered by black cloth climbed over the courtyard wall.
"What are you yelling for? I'll kill you."
One of them rushed straight to where Hei Zi was, took out a dagger, and stabbed it in the head.
"Be quicker."
The other person followed behind, looking around to see if there were any living people.
"Woof woof woof".
Kuroko was agile; she dodged to the side and then pounced, biting the man's arm.
The sharp teeth pierced the skin and dug deep into the flesh.
As Kuroko swung his body forcefully, a piece of flesh was torn off.
"ah."
The man, in pain, loosened his grip, and the dagger fell to the ground.
Well done, hater.
Ruan Qiushui could see it clearly through the window.
If she weren't so heavily pregnant and slow to move, she really would have liked to take a stun gun and go out for a surprise attack.
"Woof woof woof".
Hei Zi pressed his advantage, pushing off with both feet, and was about to bite the man's throat.
"Damn it."
Seeing this, another man quickly stepped forward to help, kicking Hei Zi in the stomach.
Heizi nimbly dodged the man's foot and continued attacking the injured man.
"Quick, help me."
The injured man was no match for the enemy and retreated repeatedly.
My initial courage has almost completely vanished.
He really didn't expect that a dog could be more powerful than him, a grown man.
"Grass."
The man glared at Hei Zi with a sinister look. Seeing Hei Zi lunge at the injured man, he reached into his waistband, pulled out a handgun, and was about to shoot it at Hei Zi's back.
"Hey, watch out, Kuroko."
Ruan Qiushui didn't care about being exposed at this moment. She pushed open the door and ran outside.
Kuroko was also her family, and she couldn't just watch him die.
"who?"
Hearing the noise, the man quickly turned around.
On the other side, Hei Zi lunged at the injured man, who stumbled backward until the back of his head hit the courtyard wall, causing him to fall to the ground.
"idiot."
The man heard a heavy thud as something fell to the ground and knew something was wrong.
"stop."
The male protagonist pointed the 'q' at Ruan Qiushui and slowly approached her.
"Woof woof woof".
Hei Zi judged that the man was incapacitated and turned to run towards Ruan Qiushui.
It wants to protect its owner.
"Make it stay still, or I'll open Q."
"You don't want both your child and your life to end, do you?"
The man moved closer, threatening.
"Hey, don't come any closer."
Ruan Qiushui called out to Hei Zi, trying to calm herself down.
"Woof woof woof".
Hei Zi was agitated, pacing back and forth three meters away from the man.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
There must be another reason why they didn't kill her immediately.
"I want Gu Changfeng dead."
The man spoke harshly.
"I heard you're his wife and pregnant with his child. If I asked Gu Changfeng to choose between his life and yours, what would he choose?"
The man gave a sneer, as if he could already see Gu Changfeng committing suicide.
"What deep-seated hatred do you have that makes you want to kill someone?"
Ruan Qiushui had already guessed the man's identity; he was nothing more than a suspect who had been driven to desperation by Gu Changfeng.
But right now, all she could do was stall for time until Gu Changfeng returned.
Although she could simply leave and enter the space, Kuroko couldn't.
“Deep-seated hatred? The hatred of killing one’s father and brother is irreconcilable.”
Two weeks ago, his leg injury hadn't healed, so he stayed behind alone in his old hideout.
The father, along with his eldest and second eldest brothers and other brothers, received instructions to prepare for a big heist.
He did not return home that night, and a group of people stayed in the jail for two days to block the news.
Three days later, news came that they had been killed.
He asked someone in the know, and they said that his father and the others originally had a chance to escape.
It was Gu Changfeng who suddenly appeared, cutting off their escape route and forcing them to be captured alive.
Gu Changfeng was also the leader of that operation, and it was Gu Changfeng who suggested being executed.
He killed his family, so why is he allowed to live peacefully without any consequences?
He wanted him dead, and he wanted his family to be buried with him.
He lingered in the Red Flag Brigade for five days, gathering a lot of information from the brigade members.
I know that Gu Changfeng loves his wife dearly, and I also know that his wife is pregnant.
He happened to see Gu Changfeng riding his bicycle out today, so he brought his helpers to his door and used Ruan Qiushui to blackmail Gu Changfeng.
"Have you ever thought that it's time to turn back? Hatred can't solve all problems."
Since they'd already gone this far, Ruan Qiushui was truly speechless.
Even though they deserved it, they wouldn't listen to reason with you.
If you say too much, he might get angry and shoot you.
“Here’s a rope. Tie yourself up, quickly.”
The man tapped the Q button and tossed out the hemp rope he carried with him.
Do I look like the kind of person who would tie myself up?
She's so pregnant right now that it's hard for her to raise her arms or bend over, and she's still going to play bondage with you?
"I'll do it, you stay where you are."
The man had no choice but to stride forward.
At this moment, the only threat to him is that dog.
He didn't even consider Ruan Qiushui, a pregnant woman, a threat.
Ruan Qiushui's heart leaped into her throat as she watched the man approach with his phone in hand.
"Damn, this is so troublesome."
The man held the q, but it was inconvenient to tie it with rope, so he simply clipped the q to his waist and held the hemp rope in both hands.
Seeing the man raise his arms, Ruan Qiushui swiftly and decisively snatched the phone, pointed it at the man, and took two steps back.
"Now, stand still and don't move."
Ruan Qiushui pulled the gun, cocked it, released the safety, and aimed in one smooth motion.
