"Don't do this. My dad said he'll find a way to make you happy. Why did you have to make such a fuss?"
This is going to be so awkward when we see each other in the future.
"Come here quickly, we've just arrived at the commune. I'll take you to buy a new outfit, perfect for our wedding."
Xiao Jiang shook her head vigorously, her refusal couldn't be clearer; she was so frightened by the man's approach that she kept backing away.
"No, no, I won't go! You're not allowed to come near me!"
Xiao Li approached with a smile, but his eyes held no warmth as he spoke softly.
"Be good, listen to me. Let's not take up Secretary Lin's precious time here. Let's go back first and discuss it slowly."
By now, most of the onlookers believe it was a family dispute. Some had already turned to leave when they heard a scream of "No!" followed by a loud bang.
Almost simultaneously, Cheng Yuanshan and several police officers appeared near her. Some of them restrained Xiao Li and the two female educated youths who were next to her, while others caught the fallen Xiao Jiang.
The two girls beside her were trembling with fear, especially when they saw Xiao Li's gloomy face, they shuddered even more.

Several police officers surveyed the scene, nodded solemnly, and took the dazed individuals away.
Old Li wanted to say something, but in this situation, anything he said would sound like a sophistry. He opened his mouth, but in the end, he just sighed deeply.
Secretary Lin watched coldly from the sidelines, and snorted coldly.
“Old Cheng, go back and interrogate him properly. If there are any problems, come to me. If anyone is putting pressure on you, transfer them to me. I’ll be waiting here. I want to see who is providing this protective umbrella.”
Secretary Lin and Cheng Yuanshan were both veterans, and their temperaments were similar. They couldn't stand such messy things, and they were straightforward and honest, so most people couldn't handle them.
On the roadside, the two men on the oxcart were initially watching the commotion, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they saw a scene of blood everywhere.
Jian Dan was stunned for a moment.
