The person who came was Gu Shi. He had received intelligence and came here alone without waiting for the police officers behind him.
He was afraid that Zhang Lijun would run away again and make a comeback, which would be troublesome.
The thug who robbed Zhang Lijun was just one of many henchmen. Zhang Lijun didn't even know his name, let alone recognize him.
Looking at the scene before him, Gu Shi chuckled and said, "Oh, dogs fighting!"
Zhang Lijun was in so much pain that he could only groan on the ground, unable to even utter a word of retaliation.
The younger brother carried the heavy backpack on his back, his eyes were red, and all he wanted was to get out.
The two clenched their fists; a fierce battle was inevitable.
The younger brother looked at Gu Shi, but in the end he couldn't hold back and launched the first attack.
Because they didn't know Gu Shi's background, they immediately attacked Gu Shi's face with a hook punch, which Gu Shi easily dodged.
Then the underling tried another sweeping leg kick, but Gu Shi countered with a kick that made the underling's expression change.
The younger brother thought to himself, "This person is quite capable; I can't be so careless."
So the younger brother abandoned his backpack, threw it on the ground, stretched his limbs, swung his neck, and got into position.
A fierce battle was about to break out between the two sides, and they soon found themselves grappling with each other again.
My years of fighting experience haven't gone to waste. Even though the opponent was Gu Shi, both of us ended up with bruises.
Gu Shi only had a cut on the corner of his mouth, some wounds on his hands, and some pain all over his body, but otherwise he was fine.
The younger brother fared much worse; he exhausted all his strength and was beaten so badly by Gu Shi that his face was covered in blood.
He was lying motionless on the ground, and it was unclear whether he had stopped breathing.
Gu Shi let out a breath before walking over to Zhang Lijun.
Although Zhang Lijun had stopped howling, he still hadn't gotten up from the ground and was lying there on the dirty muddy ground.
Gu Shi walked over and kicked him first: "Zhang Lijun, are you still going to run?"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Lijun slowly turned around and looked at Gu Shi with a grin.
"You're that notorious jinx from Pear Blossom Village!"
Zhang Lijun was certain that he had helped Li Juan more than once, and he also knew that Li Juan hated Lin Qingyu.
They also knew that Gu Shi, a famous man from Pear Blossom Village, had opened many factories on his own at a young age.
That's something his crooked ways can't compare to, but he is indeed quite handsome.
Zhang Lijun grinned, brushed his hair aside, and casually revealed the small pistol in his pocket.
"No wonder all those young wives want to marry you; they're not honest even after marriage."
Gu Shi stared at the dark gun barrel pointed at him, his pupils shrinking instantly before slowly returning to normal.
He stood there without moving, calmly saying, "Zhang Lijun, you haven't done anything wrong yet, there's still a way back. Don't make any more mistakes..."
"Shut the hell up!"
Zhang Lijun hates being lectured to; he can't stand hearing such things.
"What right do you have to tell me what to do? Your life is in my hands now. If you dare to touch me, I'll kill you!"
Gu Shi stopped lecturing and began to persuade him: "Don't be impulsive. The police will be here soon. If you take the money and run now, you might still be able to get away."
Zhang Lijun remained unmoved and said, "I'm not running anymore, I accept my fate, but if I can take one person down with me before I die, I'll be satisfied, hahaha!"
He laughed loudly. He slowly got up from the ground, his eyes fixed on Gu Shi.
"Don't try anything funny, put your hands up!"
Gu Shi lost his balance and almost fell, while Zhang Lijun's hands were sweating with nervousness.
"I told you to shut the hell up! You better behave yourself!"
This time, Gu Shi obediently raised his hands without saying a word, but his gaze remained fixed on Zhang Lijun.
To be precise, it landed on Zhang Lijun's right hand, where he was holding the pistol.
At this moment, Zhang Lijun was feeling smug and wanted to walk past Gu Shi to pick up the backpack on the ground, but unexpectedly Gu Shi suddenly moved.
Gu Shi swung his fist toward Zhang Lijun's face, startling Zhang Lijun into immediately pulling the trigger.
The loud gunshot I had imagined didn't ring out; instead, there were two click-clack sounds.
Before Zhang Lijun could react, Gu Shi's fist had already landed on his face.
The next second, Zhang Lijun lay on the ground again, this time unable to even howl, and fainted.
Gu Shi picked up Zhang Lijun's pistol and, as expected, found it unsafed.
"Thank goodness you didn't have insurance!"
He took the gun and searched Zhang Lijun again to make sure there were no dangerous items before turning around to tie the two of them up.
But to their surprise, the henchmen on the ground had already disappeared, along with the backpack.
Gu Shi didn't chase after anyone; his goal was Zhang Lijun. Once he caught this person, he would be at ease.
At the same moment, Lin Qingyu walked into Li Juan's small villa.
This place is no longer what it used to be. The small garden, which had been neglected for several days, was soon overgrown with weeds.
When Lin Qingyu entered the small villa, she discovered that everything inside had been moved out.
She took a few more steps inside and found Li Juan sitting alone on the floor; even the sofa had been taken away.
It's normal for people to covet a solid wood sofa made of pear wood, after all.
"You've arrived, and you can see what's going on here. There's no room for you to sit, and I can't even greet you properly! Ha!"
Li Juan was holding a bottle of liquor, with several empty bottles beside her. It was unclear how long she had been drinking, even though they were all imported liquors.
"Juanzi, I only have one question to ask you."
Lin Qingyu's voice was cold, as if all the caring words and happy things she had said before were not spoken by the same person.
Li Juan sneered, "Ha, what's there to ask? It's all because of your husband. If it weren't for him, would I be in this situation now?"
Li Juan played the villain by falsely accusing Lin Qingyu, and Lin Qingyu might have believed her if she hadn't been the victim.
Ignoring Li Juan's expression, which seemed to want to devour her, she still asked the question.
"You arranged my kidnapping, didn't you? I saw your things in the cellar. That cellar is yours, isn't it!"
Lin Qingyu had no doubts at all. She knew very well that Li Juan had done all of this, and she didn't know why she had come here.
Upon hearing what she said, Li Juan suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! So what if it's me, or it's not me? What's the point of saying all this now!"
Lin Qingyu still wanted to hear her say it herself; up until now, she had always reserved a place for Li Juan in her heart.
Li Juan suddenly stood up, swaying unsteadily, but holding the wine bottle tightly in her hand.
"Lin Qingyu, what are you pretending to be so high and mighty for? Aren't you just here to laugh at me? Now that you've got what you want, can you get lost!"
Li Juan's hair was a mess; it was already permed into big waves, but now it was even more tangled.
Adding to what has happened in the past few days, she looks much more haggard.
Before Lin Qingyu could say anything, Li Juan suddenly grabbed a wine bottle and smashed it at her!
