Tang Zhizhou raised an eyebrow, using one hand to restrain Gao Jiewei to prevent him from moving around, while the other hand reached directly for his clothes. His stomach was clean, his back was clean, and there were no wounds or bruises on his body.
"You're all jiggling with fat, and you don't even have a bruise on your body. You're kidding me if you think Lu Ziyin hit you!"
Everyone saw it too, of course; the person who kept shouting that he had been beaten was completely clean, without any wounds!
"Mom! Mom!" Gao Jiewei was held back by Tang Zhizhou and couldn't break free, so he had no choice but to ask his mother for help.
When Liu Cui saw that her precious son was being held back by Tang Zhizhou, she panicked and, without caring who was around, swung her rolling pin at him.
"I'll beat you to death if you touch my son!"
Tang Zhizhou was taken aback by Liu Cui's sudden attack and quickly released Gao Jiewei to dodge.
But Liu Cui was too fast, and the rolling pin was quite long. She waved it around in the air and managed to hit Tang Zhizhou a couple of times, and even hit him in the face once!
Everyone was stunned by what they saw, and several men who had come to watch the commotion immediately rushed forward to stop Liu Cui.
The blows to his body were alright, but one hit his face, and Tang Zhizhou immediately yelled, "Holy crap, my handsome face! It's ruined!"
Grandma Ding was also anxious. She rushed forward, cupped Tang Zhizhou's face in her hands, and asked with concern, "Xiaozhou, let Grandma take a look. Is he alright?"
A bruise had formed on his fair left cheek, and it was gradually swelling up.
"He hit so hard, what if he's really disfigured!" Grandma Ding was extremely worried. She looked at Liu Cui and said angrily, "Liu Cui, let's not even talk about whether my Mengmeng and Yinyin hit your son or not, but everyone saw you hit our Xiaozhou!"
"You're so vicious! You actually laid a hand on a child and slapped him in the face! What will you do if this child gets seriously injured?"
Liu Cui had already been restrained by several men, and the rolling pin had been taken away. After the beating, Liu Cui had regained some of her senses. Seeing Tang Zhizhou's swollen face, she panicked and instinctively tried to protest, "This...this isn't me..."
"You still dare to lie? So many people are watching! Do you think I'm blind, or do you think all these villagers are blind too?!" Grandma Ding said angrily.
"Yes, beating someone so badly is really too much!"
"You swung the rolling pin yourself, and you still won't admit it!"
"This Gao family's daughter-in-law is really..."
The people around her were all talking at once, one after another, leaving Liu Cui speechless.
Lu Ziyin also looked at Tang Zhizhou's face. The injury looked quite serious, but it hadn't damaged any bones or tendons. At most, it would just be swollen for a while and wouldn't disfigure him.
However, Lu Ziyin approached Liu Cui with a smirk: "Auntie, I don't know if you've ever been to school or have any legal awareness. Injuring someone in public is a legal offense. My friend's face is badly injured, and there were so many people watching—there's plenty of evidence!"
"What, what do you mean..." If she hit someone, she would at most be scolded a couple of times. Liu Cui was thick-skinned and not afraid. But what did Lu Ziyin mean by the law?
Only then did Liu Cui truly become frightened.
"It doesn't mean anything." Lu Ziyin sneered twice. "I just wanted to tell you, auntie, that although my friend and I aren't particularly outstanding, we're just lucky. Our families are incredibly wealthy, and we've hired several lawyers."
"So, given what you just did, it wouldn't be difficult to get your whole family arrested. What do you think, auntie?"
Lu Ziyin's words not only shocked Liu Cui, but also stunned all the villagers watching in the courtyard.
Is this really that terrible?!
When Liu Cui heard Lu Ziyin say that she was going to be taken to the police station, her legs went weak with fear. "You, you're lying! You, you also hit my son, so you, you'll go in too!"
Lu Ziyin glanced at Gao Jiewei, who was terrified, and said calmly, "Auntie, you need evidence to speak. Whether I hit your son or not, your son and you know perfectly well. On the contrary, your son ruined a pair of my pants worth over ten thousand yuan, and I've already been lenient by not asking him for compensation! Now, you've injured my friend. So, it's all your fault, Auntie! I've said it to this point, Auntie, aren't you still not clear-headed?"
"I...I..." Her options were completely blocked. She hit someone, and now she has to pay compensation. What...what is she going to do...?
"Waaah..." Liu Cui collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears. "Young man, I was wrong... Please, please don't hold it against me, I was really wrong... Waaah..."
Don't send her to the police station!
Liu Cui was no longer the arrogant woman she had been when she caused trouble. Now, with snot running down her face, she looked like a defeated hen—laughable, pathetic, and ignorant!
"This..." Grandma Ding didn't expect Liu Cui to suddenly burst into tears, nor did she expect things to be as serious as Lu Ziyin said. She was a little confused for a moment.
"Mengmeng, is what Yinyin just said true? Does his family really have a lawyer? Will they sue Liu Cui?" Grandma Ding leaned close to Ding Kemeng and whispered to her.
Lu Ziyin spoke with such seriousness that Grandma Ding almost believed him!
Tang Zhizhou heard Grandma Ding's voice. Although his face hurt, he couldn't help but smile and replied in a low voice, "Grandma, Lu Ziyin wasn't lying. Our two families do have some money, and we do have a lawyer in the family!"
"Ah..." Grandma Ding was shocked by Tang Zhizhou's words. It turned out that Yinyin really wasn't lying!
