Once Xu Yuehuai realized that there was no one else from No. 4 Middle School, she stopped holding back and began to walk around, searching.
The room wasn't big, only about ten square meters. You could walk around the whole room in just a few steps.
Xu Yuehuai went out today, thinking it would be daytime, so she didn't bring a tinderbox. Without a way to light anything, she couldn't see her surroundings clearly.
But in a daze, I looked around and felt that the house looked like a woodshed.
"Why are you locking me up here? Who told you to do this?" Xu Yuehuai immediately realized that someone must have told the magistrate that if she came looking for him, he should lock her up.
Xu Yuehuai called out, but there was no response from anyone around. They had locked her up here alone and ignored her.
Since no one was around, Xu Yuehuai began to think of a way to leave. She picked up a wooden stick from inside the house and went behind the door, intending to knock on it.
But just as Xu Yuehuai was doing this, the door was suddenly opened from the outside!
With a loud bang, the door was pushed open! And there stood a figure outside!
The man was quite tall and stout, and his figure looked somewhat familiar. His aura also made people feel as if they had seen him somewhere before.
Xu Yuehuai was guessing, and before she could figure out who it was, the person spoke up: "You dare to be so arrogant! Now you've been caught by my men, haven't you?"
"You made me get beaten up so badly yesterday, today I'll teach you a lesson, you little slut!"
That voice belonged to Manager Ding! Xu Yuehuai felt somewhat relieved after learning that the other person was Manager Ding.
As long as it's not Maimaiti and his group, they'll be easier to deal with!
Xu Yuehuai then rushed out of the house without giving Manager Ding time to react.
When Manager Ding saw Xu Yuehuai rush out, he wanted his family to come and capture Xu Yuehuai.
Before he could even utter a sound, Xu Yuehuai started hitting him with a wooden stick.
"Master! Master, be careful!" shouted the servant next to Manager Ding.
Shopkeeper Ding had no way to dodge; he was rather stout and couldn't avoid it at all!
Xu Yuehuai suddenly appeared next to Manager Ding, but instead of hitting him, she grabbed his throat and pressed the sharp end of a wooden stick tightly against his neck.
"If you don't want to die, let me, the Liu family manager, and the young master of the Liu family leave!"
"If either of them gets into any danger, you won't survive either!"
Xu Yuehuai was not joking with Manager Ding at all. He directly took the wooden stick and forcefully stabbed it into the blood vessel in Manager Ding's neck. Soon, a strong smell of blood filled the air.
Shopkeeper Ding felt a sharp pain in his neck. He reached down and touched it, finding a handful of scalding hot blood. His heart trembled instantly, and he even felt unsteady on his feet.
"No! Let's talk this out! Don't fight! I didn't mean to kill anyone, I just wanted to teach you a lesson!"
Xu Yuehuai said, "Didn't you intend to cause a death? Then why did you arrest Manager Liu and the others and bring them to the government office?"
Shopkeeper Ding suddenly felt a little guilty, and his palms became sweaty. He quickly made up an excuse and said to Xu Yuehuai.
"I simply called them over so I could have a proper chat with the magistrate about what happened yesterday."
“You know what happened on East Street yesterday. Those people have gone mad, daring to lay a hand on me and beat me up like this. Of course, I have to make sure they are punished properly.”
So, Manager Ding went directly to the county magistrate late at night and told him about the matter on East Street, hoping that the magistrate would help him make a decision.
That's why the yamen runners went to the clinic that night and arrested Manager Liu and his men, bringing them to the county government office. All of this was simply due to Manager Ding's petty nature.
Xu Yuehuai didn't care why Manager Ding had captured the Liu family; all she wanted now was a result: for Manager Ding to release the Liu family immediately!
"Stop talking nonsense. I want to see Manager Liu and the others appear in front of me safely!"
Upon hearing this, Manager Ding, fearing that Xu Yuehuai would harm him again, quickly asked a nearby guest to fetch the person.
"What are you all standing there for? Didn't you hear what this young lady said? Go and fetch Manager Liu and the others! Do you want to watch me die here?"
Shopkeeper Ding's servants hurriedly went to find Shopkeeper Liu and his young master. Meanwhile, Xu Yuehuai kept Shopkeeper Ding under control.
Having his vital spot seized by Xu Yuehuai, Manager Ding dared not move. He could only wait for his servants to bring Manager Liu and the others over.
A short while later, Manager Liu and his group were finally brought over. Their clothes looked exceptionally clean and tidy, but Xu Yuehuai immediately spotted the flaws.
These clothes didn't fit Liu and his companions well; they looked like children wearing adult clothes.
Xu Yuehuai knew that Manager Liu and the others must have been harmed by Manager Ding's men. However, the fact that they weren't in any real danger was good news.
"Release Manager Liu and the others! Let them come over here!" Xu Yuehuai pressed the wooden stick against Manager Ding's neck again.
Shopkeeper Ding suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck, as if a lot of blood had flowed out again. He quickly pressed his palm against the area below the wound.
"Didn't you hear what your aunt said? Hurry up and let Manager Liu and the others over!" Only when Manager Ding speaks will his servants do anything.
The guests quickly released Manager Liu and the young man from the Liu family, but the two looked at Xu Yuehuai in shock.
I never expected Xu Yuehuai to be so capable, able to control Manager Ding all by herself! And even get Manager Ding to release them!
"Miss Xu! Why did you come to save us?" The young man from the Liu family was very moved; he had thought he was going to die.
But unexpectedly, they encountered Xu Yuehuai when they were in despair! Xu Yuehuai single-handedly stormed into the county government office to rescue them, which was an immense life-saving grace!
Seeing Liu's younger brother crying, Xu Yuehuai said to him, "We can talk about other things later. Let's leave here first."
After saying this, Xu Yuehuai dragged Manager Ding toward the exit. On the way here, Xu Yuehuai had memorized the surrounding route early in the morning, so now that she was leading Manager Liu and the others out, she didn't need anyone else to guide them.
