Chapter 174 Chen Yuan, can you help me?
Su Wan turned around and saw a pretty girl with a slender figure, looking at Chen Yuan with tears in her eyes. The two seemed to have something in common.
She subconsciously glanced at Chen Yuan beside her. He pursed his lips and said nothing, but from his eyes, she could tell that he knew this girl.
The girl twisted her slender waist and walked in front of Chen Yuan, her voice still soft and weak.
"Chen Yuan, have you forgotten me? I'm Zhang Li, and we were classmates in junior high school!"
The girl named Zhang Li spoke, walked towards Chen Yuan again, and reached out to hold his hand.
Chen Yuan reacted quickly. He took two steps back, keeping a distance between them, and said politely and distantly, "Hello, Zhang Li. This is my lover, Su Wan."
After saying that, he turned and looked at Su Wan.
Su Wan was not angry either. She looked at Zhang Li with a smile that was very appropriate.
"Hello!"
"Hello, I...I just haven't seen an old classmate in a while, so I came to say hello."
Zhang Li glanced at Su Wan cautiously, her eyes misty, as if she had just been bullied by her.
"So, are you done greeting us? We're going home now, so you should go back early!"
After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he pulled Su Wan and wanted to leave.
Zhang Li suddenly called out to Chen Yuan from behind, her voice trembling, "Chen Yuan, can you...can you help me?"
Upon hearing this, Su Wan stopped and looked at Chen Yuan who was pulling her leisurely.
Chen Yuan naturally didn't move forward. He turned around and asked in confusion, "How can I help you?"
"My husband beats me every day after he eats and blames me for not being able to give birth to a son. I really can't stand it anymore. Can you help me get a divorce?"
Su Wan was surprised to hear this.
Why would her husband help others get divorced?
And judging from Chen Yuan's attitude just now, it seems that the two of them are not very familiar with each other.
Or is there something she doesn't know?
Su Wan was extremely curious and her eyes moved back and forth between Chen Yuan and Zhang Li.
After a while, Chen Yuan finally said, "If your husband beats you, you can go to your family to ask for an explanation. If you want a divorce, you can go to the local police station or the Women's Federation. I may not be able to help you because I will be returning to the army soon."
"But I heard from people in the next village that you helped Wang Cheng's family in Wangjia Village. Can't you help me?"
Zhang Li pleaded, "I've heard from my classmates that you're a high-ranking official in the army now, and many people listen to you. Please use your power to help me."
"I really can't help you. I'm just a soldier. I don't have that much power."
"Chen Yuan, I beg you..."
Zhang Li suddenly knelt down and grabbed Chen Yuan's trouser leg. "I really can't stand his beatings anymore. My three daughters are living a miserable life now. If I don't divorce him, he will beat me to death."
Although she didn't like Zhang Li's behavior, Su Wan couldn't help but soften her heart and said, "If your husband is violent, you can go to the Women's Federation for help, or the police station. It's useless to go to my husband. He's just a soldier and he's not responsible for this kind of problem."
Hearing Su Wan's words, Zhang Li's eyes were filled with obvious resentment.
But she quickly said, "I've heard from them that Chen Yuan is now the battalion commander, a very high position! The police station here has to give him face, so his words must be heard."
"It's not that I don't want to help you, but I can't cross those rules. Besides, you have family. No matter what happens, you should tell your family immediately and let them make the decision for you."
What Chen Yuan said made sense, but Zhang Li didn't want to listen.
She clutched Chen Yuan's trouser legs tightly, crying like a tearful person. "When we were in school, we were at least desks in front and behind each other. For the sake of our friendship, please help me! My family asked me not to divorce. They said they wouldn't let me go home even if I divorced. I'm really desperate."
Just as Su Wan was about to step forward and pull her hand away, a burly man suddenly jumped out from behind her.
He angrily pulled Zhang Li's hair and pulled her to the ground.
"You bitch, you dare to talk about other men here, do you have someone else outside? I was wondering why you always want to go out recently. So you are looking for another man to stand up for you?"
He wanted to punch Zhang Li on the head in anger, but was caught by Chen Yuan.
Su Wan also helped Zhang Li up and said, "If he abuses you like this, you can go to the police station and report it."
Zhang Li sobbed and said, "If I report the case, he will definitely be taken to the police station."
"When he pulled your hair just now, he didn't intend to let you live. He wanted to beat you to death. Even so, you are unwilling to go to the police station to report it?
Su Wan felt her scalp tingling when she thought of the man's rude behavior just now.
"What's wrong with you, bitch?"
Hearing that Su Wan wanted the woman to take herself to the police station, the man cursed rudely.
Chen Yuan's eyes darkened. "You'd better be more respectful when you speak. She is my wife."
The man obviously knew Chen Yuan. He shrank back a bit when he heard Su Wan was his wife, but he still shouted, "I hit my own wife, and even the police couldn't arrest me. What right do you have to point fingers here? I'm telling you, you'd better stay out of my family's business, or I'll beat you up too. Hmm."
He spoke very arrogantly, as if he had done this kind of thing countless times.
Zhang Li, who had just been throwing a tantrum in front of the man, suddenly stopped.
Su Wan looked at her with a look of disappointment. She was not willing to fight for it herself, but wanted to make them the scapegoat. How could such a good thing exist in the world?
"You're right, that's a matter between you and your wife, and it has nothing to do with us."
After that, he pulled Chen Yuan's hand and said, "Let's go home. That's their business. She doesn't even fight for herself. What else can we say?"
After hearing Su Wan's words, Chen Yuan looked at Zhang Li deeply.
After all, they were classmates, so before leaving, he couldn't help but say, "Even if he hits you while you're married, it's still domestic violence. You can go to the police station to report it, or go to the Women's Federation and they can help you resolve the matter."
No matter how many things there are, he can't help.
Because he and Su Wan were indeed preparing to return to the army, and they also wanted to stay at home with their family and did not intend to care about other people's affairs.
Besides, Zhang Li's attitude just now showed that she might just want him to teach her man a lesson and she didn't really want a divorce.
