Just as Yan Lin was about to pull Xu Manzhi away, Zhou Xiangqun came in with several young people. As soon as they saw the three of them, they came up to greet them.
"Hey, everyone's here. Pengyue, let me introduce you to a friend. His name is Deng Hui. His father was a veteran of the Eighth Route Army. His whole family is powerful. He's already a division-level cadre at a young age. He's a top-notch comrade. He's the one who helped me protect your father..." he introduced enthusiastically.
Xu Manzhi was filled with questions.
She said irritably, "Why are you meddling in other people's business? By helping the bad guys, you're just making yourself a scoundrel."
Snap.
My fists are itching to go.
She really wanted to hit someone.
"Is this Comrade Jiang Pengyue that you've been talking about?" Deng Hui was wearing a dark blue long-sleeved jacket and black pants, with dark skin and a square face.
His gaze fell upon Xu Manzhi with a hint of amazement.
It's so beautiful.
Zhou Xiangqun is incredibly lucky; he managed to snag a bargain.
In wealthy and powerful families, the requirements for women are not high. As long as they live a decent and honest life, that's enough. If the wife is beautiful and has a sweet tongue, she might even be of some help.
Such stunning beauty shines wherever she goes.
Zhou Xiangqun felt bad after being rebuked by Xu Manzhi, thinking that his good intentions had been unappreciated. However, he maintained a calm demeanor on the surface.
He chuckled dryly, "After all, he's your father. You're being too heartless; people will gossip about it."
It's not like I'm joining the army.
They place great importance on in-law relationships.
"Hehe, I don't have time to banter with you, I'm going fishing first," Xu Manzhi said.
She picked up the bucket and left.
Even the biggest things can't stop her from doing her important work.
Yan Lin was perfectly fine and hadn't been harmed by that wild woman, so all her worries had long since vanished. Right now, even if the sky were to fall, nothing was more important than fishing.
Big Yellow followed in a flash.
She was fishing, and it chimed in.
Perfect.
As soon as Xu Manzhi left, Zhou Xiangqun awkwardly scratched his head, looked at Deng Hui, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, that's just her personality, she doesn't like socializing."
"It's alright, it's alright. Girls are all proud before they get married. They need their husbands to teach them well, and they'll become more sensible in the future," Deng Hui said with a smile.
Whoosh whoosh.
A cold gaze swept over the two of them.
Deng Hui's theory, in particular, provoked strong dissatisfaction from a certain man, who clenched his fingers and made a cracking sound.
Some people just walk right into the line of fire.
"Comrade, you must be the legendary Yan Lin, the Yama of Life and Death?" Deng Hui said with a smile.
He extended his wrist to Yan Lin.
Yan Lin glanced at it.
It's spotless.
No scars.
He didn't reach out, but said coldly, "You're right, I'm a rough man who only knows how to fight and kill. I'm clueless about anything else. I just hope there are fewer filthy people in the world, otherwise it will dampen the spirits of our soldiers."
"What do you mean?" Deng Hui's expression changed.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Zhou Wen quickly tried to smooth things over, saying with a forced smile, "Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand. Yan Lin is just like that. He doesn't like socializing and speaks his mind directly. He's a soldier, hehehe."
Don't know how to socialize?
Deng Hui immediately thought of Xu Manzhi, who had just left, and said sarcastically, "Hehe, you and Comrade Jiang Pengyue have the same personality, quite a match—"
"That's right."
Yan Lin finally heard some nice words, and the anger in his heart subsided.
His brow relaxed, and he said calmly, "A rough man like me is not worthy to be in the same frame as refined people. I won't disturb your elegance any longer, I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he strode away without looking back.
Watching his heartless back, Deng Hui was furious and looked at Zhou Xiangqun, saying, "Luckily, he's not your friend, or I would have been so angry I would have died."
Zhou Xiangqun was also furious.
He couldn't understand how his fiancée could know someone like Yan Lin.
Unreasonable and stubborn.
So what if he can fight? He's still just a crude brute.
Whoever marries him is doomed!
"Let's go check on Kai Shui. He always drives for us, and now he's been bitten by a dog. I wonder how he is doing," Zhou Xiangqun said with concern.
"Yes, let's go see him."
Deng Hui, still holding Zhou Wen's hand, laughed and said, "You, as the person in charge, have to speak up. Chen Kaishui is your family member. He suffered so much, you should kill the dog that bit him and make the dog owner pay some compensation."
The Zhou and Deng families were related by marriage in the past.
They know each other.
Deng Hui also frequently borrowed a driver from Zhou Wen.
"Let's just forget about it. I'll get compensation for Kai Shui later. Gouzi was brought by Yan Lin to track down the criminals, so he was injured in the line of duty. It's only right and proper that I handle this," Zhou Wen said.
He had always found it strange.
Yan Lin's dog, ignoring everyone else, only bit into the boiled water; there must be a hidden reason behind this.
Therefore, he planned to take advantage of the compensation discussion to get some information out of Chen Kaishui.
Haicheng Gujia.
Jiang Pengyue had already tied a note to the pigeon, inviting the other party to meet at the Jiang family mansion at midnight tonight.
It's actually safer there now that it's sealed off.
Her heart was in agony, fearing that even this last bit of strength would slip away from her grasp.
Since the strange man disappeared, her mind has been filled with all sorts of wicked thoughts, which she can't even control, and she is completely different from her former naive self.
It felt as if some evil within me had been awakened.
She felt uneasy, bewildered, and each day felt like an eternity.
"Jiang Pengyue, get out here right now! You dare to harm me? Are you looking for death?!"
