As a well-known family in S City, the Su family forces their children to learn combat karate from an early age to prevent them from being kidnapped, and Su Ling is no exception.
He was very beautiful when he was little, with fair skin and naturally curly hair. He was as cute as a doll and attracted attention wherever he went. However, he was a bit delicate and would get angry easily when he bumped into something. Even his karate teacher was helpless.
Until one day, when he was bullied by three little boys in kindergarten, Su Ling's stubborn temper came out and he was determined to get revenge. So when he took fighting lessons, he stopped crying. After a month of learning, he began to see results. He beat the three little boys to the ground. From then on, no one dared to mess with him anymore.
After twenty years of study, Su Ling's karate skills are at least the third degree black belt. He usually keeps a low profile, and others just regard him as an elegant gentleman. Little do they know that if they anger him, the consequences will be disastrous.
Xu Dingshi was kicked away by him without any preparation and lay on the ground wailing. Xiao Guo and Zhang Li came back to their senses from the shock and ran forward nervously to help him up.
"Xu...Brother Xu, are you okay?" Zhang Li asked.
Xu Dingshi recovered his strength, struggled to his feet, clutched his stomach, hissed a few times, and angrily said, "Let me kick you and see if you're okay! Damn it! This kid knows martial arts just like Old Man Su!"
"What should we do? Just let it go?" Xiao Guo asked unwillingly.
"Of course not!" Xu Dingshi snatched the knife from Xiao Guo's hand and rushed towards Su Ling fiercely. He just couldn't believe it. After ten years in Liuxian Town, he couldn't beat a pretty boy? He just got lucky and took advantage of him and succeeded in a sneak attack!
He really didn't accept the toast and ended up having to drink the forfeit. The person who hurt his brother Xu last time is still lying in the intensive care unit of the hospital.
Xu Dingshi stabbed Su Ling with a knife. Su Ling reacted quickly and snatched the flat stick from Aunt Zhang and used it as a stick. When Xu Dingshi got close, the flat stick poked forward and hit his neck. Xu Dingshi couldn't dodge in time and screamed in pain. The flat stick changed direction and hit his wrist holding the knife. After several consecutive hits, the knife in Xu Dingshi's hand fell off and flew out. Xiao Guo and Zhang Li next to him saw this and attacked Su Ling together. Su Ling stuck the flat stick in his hand into the ground, used the flat stick as a fulcrum, jumped up, and did an invincible tornado kick.
"ah--"
“Wow—”
"Ouch--"
Aunt Zhang watched in shock as the three hooligans flew out at the same time, their backs hitting the ground, their limbs facing the air, and they burst into tears.
Su Ling landed handsomely, kicked the flat ball with his right foot, and the flat ball bounced up. He easily caught it with one hand and pointed it directly at Xu Dingshi.
Xu Dingshi widened his eyes in horror as he looked at Bian Dan who was so close to him. He was so scared that he crawled back regardless of the pain.
"You...what do you want to do? Killing...killing someone means paying with your life!"
Su Ling looked down at him and said coldly, "When you stabbed someone with a knife, why didn't you think about killing someone and paying with his life?"
Xu Dingshi's body was shaking like a sieve, his eyes filled with resentment. "Old...I'm going to sue you! For intentional injury!"
Xiao Guo crawled over to Xu Dingshi, pulled out his cell phone, and bluffed, "Call the police! We're calling the police!"
Su Ling smiled, and it sent chills down Xu Dingshi's spine. He pointed at the white object under the eaves of the courtyard gate and asked slowly, "Do you see that thing?"
Xu Dingshi looked in the direction he pointed and was suddenly stunned.
"S...surveillance cameras?"
"Yes, it was the surveillance camera," Su Ling said. "I didn't want to argue with you any further and was about to go back to the house, but you persisted and attacked me from behind. After I kicked you away, you stabbed someone with a knife. Then three people surrounded and beat me up, and I fought back with a stick. It was completely self-defense. Who do you think the police will arrest after watching the surveillance video?"
Xu Dingshi's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You kid... you're trying to trick me!"
"What do you think?" Su Ling asked back.
I bought a bunch of electrical appliances in town and installed surveillance cameras. I didn’t expect they would come in handy now.
Xu Dingshi was so exhausted that he could only swallow his anger and ran away in disgrace with his two younger brothers.
Su Ling put Bian Dan down and watched them escape.
Aunt Zhang sighed and walked over with concern. "Xiao Su, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Su Ling smiled.
Aunt Zhang looked at his harmless smile and couldn't help but wonder if the young man who had just fought three people alone was him.
"Xu Dingshi suffered a setback this time, and he will definitely cause trouble again next time." Aunt Zhang knew the nature of the Xu family's son very well, and said with a worried look on her face.
Su Ling took out his cell phone and dialed 110. "Call the police first."
"Will this... work?" Aunt Zhang was pessimistic. Xu Dingshi was a successful businessman in town, and he had the backing of someone who allowed him to act so recklessly.
"No matter if it's useful or not, it's always right to call the police first." Su Ling said.
An hour and a half later, a police car drove into Shixi Village. When the villagers heard the sirens, they all came out curiously. Su Ling provided them with the surveillance video. After understanding the situation, the police went to Lao Xu's house and arrested Xu Dingshi and three others.
At that time, Xu Dingshi and his two younger brothers were planning how to take revenge on Su Ling in the house. They were suddenly caught and were confused. When they saw Su Ling standing behind the police, they shouted angrily and were restrained by the police and taken into the police car.
Zhang Li and Xiao Guo were taken away together with sad faces. The villagers pointed at them and talked about them. Lao Xu and Li Qiu were so scared when they saw their son being arrested that they cried and begged Su Ling to let their son go.
Su Ling pursed his lips and stood still. Aunt Zhang couldn't bear to see this and stepped forward to scold him, "God knows what I'm talking about. If Xiao Su hadn't been able to protect herself, she would have been stabbed to death by your son! Now that they've been arrested, it's entirely their own fault!"
Li Qiu was stunned for a moment, then knelt down and begged Su Ling: "Master Su, please be magnanimous and let my Ding Shi go! I only have this one son, and he can't go to jail! If he goes to jail, who will be willing to marry him in the future?"
Su Ling frowned, unmoved: "Everything will be done according to legal procedures. If you have any demands, you can talk to the police."
Li Qiu and Lao Xu slumped to the ground, feeling powerless and helpless. The other villagers shook their heads and sighed, "If we had known this would happen, we wouldn't have done it in the first place!"
"If a son does not teach, his father and son will suffer!"
"A loving mother often spoils her child, tsk tsk tsk—"
"I heard Xu Dingshi got into trouble in town, so he ran back to the village to hide."
"Is it related to the forced demolition? Someone posted a video online. It's tragic, so tragic. A perfectly healthy person was beaten to death."
"You saw it too? That's the one! I heard the developer is the Lin Group. They bought a piece of land outside of Liuxian Town. Several families living there didn't want to move, so they hired thugs from the town to forcibly demolish the land in the middle of the night. A conflict ensued, and someone was killed!"
"Was it Xu Dingshi who beat him to death?"
"I'm not sure, but it's definitely related to him."
When Su Ling heard the word "Lin Group", he frowned.
At noon, after finishing his statement at the police station and returning home, Su Ling didn't even cook. He couldn't wait to open Weibo and search for information. King was circling around his feet, but he didn't pay any attention to him.
His Weibo account was a newly registered one, and he didn't follow anyone. The homepage was full of advertising push notifications. He clicked on the hot search and scrolled down, but didn't see any topics related to the Lin Group.
He bit his lip subconsciously and entered keywords into the search box. In an instant, a bunch of forced demolition news related to the Lin Group popped up.
It seems that after the incident happened, the Lin Group withdrew the hot search immediately, but it was difficult to stop the public from talking. Marketing accounts that were watching the show, competitors who were taking advantage of the situation, and passers-by who were filled with righteous indignation all launched fierce criticism against the incident of forced demolition and killing people.
If the incident escalates and is not handled properly, the Lin Group’s century-old reputation may be ruined.
Su Ling found the official Weibo of Lin Group and saw a statement full of official jargon. It was empty and it was as if nothing had been said.
Shaking his head helplessly, Su Ling continued searching. He could no longer find the video of the man being beaten to death, but there were still some blurred pictures.
Despite filing for divorce from Lin Feng, Su Ling still had deep feelings for him and did not want the Lin Group to be involved in this controversy. This matter involved human lives, and no matter how powerful the Lin Group's background was, it could not be sloppy. It had to be handled properly to appease the public anger.
I wonder if Lin Feng will personally handle this matter?
Su Ling exited Weibo, held the phone in his hand, and hesitantly clicked on the call icon with his fingertips. The set of numbers that he remembered so well kept jumping in his mind. He pressed the number "1", suddenly put the phone down, bent down, picked up the "woooo" King, and buried his face in its soft fur.
"Woof woof, woof~" The puppy, who finally received attention, made a coquettish sound.
After raising it for a month, the little thing has become fatter and feels heavy in my arms.
Su Ling raised his head from King's fur and scratched his chin. "Grow up quickly, little thing. When you grow up, come and look after the house for me."
When the three hooligans came to make trouble this morning, the little thing wanted to follow them out, but was locked in by Su Ling. Now that Su Ling came back, it made a dissatisfied whirring sound, as if complaining.
The heavy mood was diluted by the cute appearance of the little thing. Su Ling showed a gentle smile and played with it affectionately for a while.
Since they are getting divorced, the Lin family's affairs will have nothing to do with him in the future. He believes that with Lin Feng's ability and the strength of the Lin Group, they will be able to overcome the difficulties.
After thinking it over, I put the matter behind me and went to the backyard to pick vegetables.
Ever since he had unlocked his vegetable-growing skill, Su Ling had been unstoppable, planting all sorts of vegetables in his backyard, building a trellis for the vines to climb. Now, his backyard had greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, shallots, and a kind of golden bell fruit that Su Ling had never tasted before.
Golden bell fruit, also known as red mud, looks very similar to bitter melon, but is smaller in size, with a golden shell and bright red flesh inside. Each one looks like a ruby and tastes sweet and fragrant in the mouth.
Reaping the fruits of his labor, Su Ling felt a surge of satisfaction. Since the backyard wasn't enough for planting, he decided to cultivate the three mu of vegetable patch outside. He read some of the books on planting that his second grandfather had kept in his study, and after gaining sufficient theoretical knowledge, he immediately took action, building a plastic greenhouse around the three mu of vegetable patch and planting cabbage, cucumbers, and tomatoes.
What to do if you grow too many vegetables and can't eat them all? Of course, sell them! As for how to sell them, Su Ling hasn't figured it out yet, so he'll decide after the harvest.
After lunch, Su Ling was grinding ink in the waterside studio when Li Dahai came to find him.
"Brother Su, the loquats on the mountain are ripe. Do you want to go pick them together?"
"Hmm? Loquat?" Su Ling put down the ink stick and raised his eyebrows slightly.
He almost forgot that, in addition to the large tea plantations on Phoenix Mountain contracted by his second grandfather, he also planted a number of fruit trees, loquat being one of them. May and June are the time when loquats are ripe, and picking them now is the most delicious.
Su Ling changed into sportswear, put on a straw hat, carried a bamboo basket, and went up the mountain with Li Dahai.
Climbing up the south slope, I saw rows of fruit trees. Bunches of loquats hung on the branches, golden like ping-pong balls, making people salivate.
At this time, many villagers used ladders to put on the trees and climbed up to pick the fruits. When they saw Su Ling and Li Dahai coming, they greeted them warmly.
This morning, many people saw Xu Dingshi being taken away by the police. After Aunt Zhang spread the word, everyone in the village knew that the son of the Xu family stabbed Su Ling with a knife in order to get compensation. Fortunately, Su Ling had the ability to protect himself, and Bian Dan used his golden cudgel like Sun Wukong's golden hoop to defeat Xu Dingshi and others.
He is worthy of being the successor of Master Su!
Like Mr. Su, he is a martial arts master!
Su Ling was puzzled by the villagers' admiring looks. With a gentle smile on his face, he responded to them one by one.
On the way here, Su Ling asked Li Dahai and learned that his second grandfather had rented out some of the mountain land to villagers to plant fruit trees. The rent was very low, ten boxes of fruit per season. This meant that Su Ling could pick ten boxes of loquats today.
Ten frames?
It seems a bit too much!
Can he finish it all by himself?
"If you can't finish it, sell it!" Li Dahai reached out and picked a loquat, peeled it, and stuffed the whole thing into his mouth, and his left cheek bulged.
"How much is it?" Su Ling also picked one, peeled it gracefully, and took a bite. It was tender and juicy, sweet and sour, and delicious.
"Set up a street stall!" Li Dahai said as a matter of course, "Grandpa Su used to bring it to the town to set up a street stall to sell it. People in the town loved it, and it sold very well."
Su Ling spat out the loquat seeds and blinked her beautiful peach blossom eyes.
The author has something to say: Su Ling: So... should I set up a stall to sell loquats?
