Chapter 173 Zhao Xiaoyu's Scheme Fails
These days, who can guarantee they won't get sick? Village doctors have limited skills, but connections at county hospitals are a real temptation.
Lin's mother wasn't fooled. She pushed through the crowd, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Zhao Xiaoyu, and started yelling:
"Pah! Stop talking nonsense! I don't care what kind of crooked tricks you used! But that brat Bi Mamin said herself that it was my daughter Baozhu who should be tied up on the mountain! Nobody would believe there wasn't something fishy going on here!"
Zhao Xiaoyu suddenly looked up at Lin's mother, her eyes flashing with a chilling light that could freeze a person, but her face still maintained a wronged expression:
"Auntie, you're so wrong to say that!"
Her voice trembled with tears, “Baozhu is the most beautiful girl in our surrounding villages. The bandit leader himself shouted from the mountain that he had arrested the wrong person! This undeserved disaster is our Bi family’s doing, suffering for Baozhu!”
As she spoke, her eyes reddened further, tears welling up in them: "I don't ask Baozhu for any compensation... I only ask... I only ask that the Lin family will be lenient in the future and stop making things difficult for us..."
This seemingly aggrieved complaint did indeed shake some villagers, with some muttering under their breath:
"If that's true... then the Bi family really did take the blame for the Lin family, shouldn't they give them some compensation?"
"Bullshit!"
Lin's mother instantly exploded, rolling up her sleeves and spitting almost in the speaker's face! "At your age, you can't even catch the hottest shit! Can't you use your brain when you go out? The Bi family is to blame for us? Where's the evidence?!"
She unleashed her full firepower, turning her gun towards Zhao Xiaoyu:
"I think you're up to no good, you little slut! The brigade leader hasn't even given you permission to go back to the village yet, and you're already causing trouble! I heard that you and your two children were being 'taken care of' quite well by the bandits up in the mountains? Could it be that you climbed onto a bandit's bed to save your lives? And your nursing job—the county hospital is a one-off position! You're a nobody with no skills and no qualifications, how did you get in? Huh? Could it be... that you got it by trading your body again?!"
Lin's mother's words came like a machine gun, relentlessly slapping Zhao Xiaoyu until her face turned deathly pale. At this moment, an aunt who was on good terms with Lin's mother also raised her voice in support:
"Don't let this vixen fool you, everyone! Have you forgotten how she seduced Bi Yuntao? How well-behaved Baozhu used to be? If the Bi family hadn't gone too far in breaking off the engagement, would they have driven the child to this state? I think Zhao Xiaoyu is just trying to pin the blame on Baozhu now!"
These words were like the last straw; Zhao Xiaoyu's face drained of color, and tears streamed down her face like a broken string of pearls. Especially when she caught a glimpse of the suspicious and disgusted look in Bi Yuntao's eyes—
"I didn't—!! You're trying to kill me—!!"
She suddenly let out a piercing, desperate scream, abruptly lowered her head, and slammed herself against a large, sharply angled rock beside her!
A sudden change occurred! The speed was astonishing! The onlookers gasped in surprise, but no one had time to react!
Only Qin Haifeng, standing beside the stone, remained unmoved, observing coldly.
He was in the shadows while Bi Yuntao conspired with the bandits! No matter how beautifully Zhao Xiaoyu sang, he didn't believe a single word. If the organization hadn't been determined to uncover her secrets, he would never have allowed that family to set foot in the village again!
Lin Baozhu, observing coldly, had a sneer on her lips. It's more fun to have the enemy right under your nose… Didn't Zhao Xiaoyu hook up with a big shot? Then she'll make her sickly, unable to leave the village!
In the end, Zhao Xiaoyu's head was bleeding profusely, and her eyes, blurred with blood, stared in disbelief at Qin Haifeng standing next to Lin Baozhu...
She had already planned it out: if she banged her head against his head, Qin Haifeng would definitely stop her, and then she could conveniently end up in his arms!
Then, she can use this as an excuse to frequently approach him. With her methods, she believes that it won't be long before this man becomes devoted to her.
He'll use his relationship with that bitch Lin Baozhu to reclaim the jade pendant that represents Lin Baozhu's identity...
pity……
"Little Rain!"
Bi Yuntao shouted and rushed forward to hug Zhao Xiaoyu, whose face was covered in blood, crying his heart out...
But her crying looked so fake! She didn't shed a single tear for ages.
Amidst the chaos, the captain's voice finally rang out:
"Alright! Stop it, all of you! What's all this commotion?!"
He looked around at everyone and said, "Since the police said it was a misunderstanding, then it was a misunderstanding! We'll all be living in the same village from now on, and we'll run into each other all the time, so let's all go home!"
After speaking, he gave a stern look to Bi Yuntao, whose face was ashen:
“Your house has burned down, and the village can’t just ignore it. Your family will temporarily stay in the dilapidated temple at the village entrance. The village will organize people to help you rebuild your house—but you can’t skimp on the wages and materials!”
“…Thank you, Captain.” Bi Yuntao gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words.
As the crowd gradually dispersed, Lin Baozhu leaned closer to Qin Haifeng, lowered her voice, and spoke with a sly glint in her eyes:
"Hey, tell me... could we make use of Old Man Bi...?"
"Don't think about it..."
Qin Haifeng shook his head slightly, lowering his voice even further, "As soon as Zhao Xiaoyu finished her call, the old leader sent someone to secretly take Old Man Bi away! He was bait to catch a big fish; if we touch him now, it will alert the people behind him."
After saying that, he suddenly pressed his lips close to Lin Baozhu's earlobe, his hot breath like a subtle electric current drilling into her ear:
"Don't worry, the two of us... are more than enough to deal with that bunch of bastards from the Bi family!"
"Um……"
The scalding breath and deep voice sent shivers down Lin Baozhu's spine, sending an indescribable tingling sensation through her ears and into her entire body! Her legs went weak, and she nearly lost her balance, hurriedly turning her head to avoid it.
Her soft lips brushed against his chin unintentionally, sending an even more intense shiver through him!
"you!"
She jumped back half a step like a startled rabbit, her cheeks flushed, and her voice trembled slightly, "Just talk... why are you getting so close?!"
