Zhu Yaowu fought for his eldest brother, and brought his three younger brothers with him. The three of them had just finished their exams and did not return home at night, so they came out to fight.

Ji Ling slept soundly at night. When she was woken up by the phone call, she felt like she was in a dream. Even after she hung up the phone, it still felt unreal.

It took me a while to regain my spirits.

Just now, the police station called her and asked her if she was Zhu Yaowu's parent and asked her to go to the police station to pick him up.

Ji Ling did not dare to delay and rushed to the police station according to the address given on the phone. She saw that the four brothers of the Zhu family were all there with bruises on their faces. They were almost unrecognizable from their original appearance.

Also present was Wu Jian, who was beaten even more severely. The blood on his face had already dried, and he looked hideous and scary.

There was a woman standing next to him, shouting at Zhu Yaowu and the others, asking how they could beat him up like that.

The weather was too cold, so when Ji Ling came over, she wrapped herself up so tightly that only her eyes were exposed. She looked clumsy and cute, and Zhu Yaowu and the other three laughed after seeing her.

"Comrade police, look how arrogant he is! He's still laughing." Wu Qi's face turned pale with anger.

The policeman said, "They are not laughing at you."

Wu Qi turned around in confusion, and then saw a figure standing not far behind him, a person who wrapped himself up like a ball.

She was stunned for a moment, then asked belatedly, "Are you their parent?"

"Yes, I am." Ji Ling slowly took off her scarf, then her neckerchief, and finally her hat, revealing a delicate little face.

Wu Qi had never seen Ji Ling, but she instinctively recognized her and frowned slightly.

"You are not their parent." Wu Qi said bluntly.

Ji Ling looked at her and said calmly, "The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. I am their sister-in-law."

After a simple reply, Ji Ling ignored her and walked up to Zhu Yaowu and the other three, and asked seriously, "What's going on?"

Zhu Weiyue said loudly, "Wu Jian secretly wrote to Big Brother saying that he liked you, so we went to ask him, but who knew that he got so angry that he started beating people up? He was the first to start, so we fought back."

"You were the ones who started the fight right away." Wu Jicheng stood up and started swearing.

Wu Jian cursed fluently despite the unbearable insults. Just from this action, we could tell how arrogant he was in normal times.

The police interrupted him, "If you swear again, we will arrest you."

Wu Jian remained silent.

Wu Qi also looked embarrassed. "Comrade police, how do you think we should handle this now? Both sides said that the other side started it first, but there is no evidence. My brother was beaten like this, they should be held responsible, right?"

The police officer said, "The other party was beaten badly. We are calling both of your parents here to see what you both mean. Do you want to reconcile or go through the formalities?"

Wu Qi opened his mouth and wanted to say that he would go through the formalities, but when he saw the injuries on the faces of the four Zhu brothers, he hesitated for a moment.

"Let's mediate privately." Ji Ling had no good feelings towards the Wu family, and could sense Wu Qi's hostility. "Both sides are injured, so go home and get treatment. I won't hold you responsible, and you won't hold us responsible. What do you think?"

Wu Qi didn't want Ji Ling to take the initiative, but she had already come up with a solution. If she didn't follow this method, the matter would become a big deal and her father would also be alarmed.

Ji Ling reminded her, "Your brother stole my letters at school, pestered me and refused to tell me, and even wrote letters to my husband in an attempt to destroy my family. These are the causes."

"Let's settle it privately." Wu Qi agreed reluctantly.

After the settlement agreement was signed, Zhu Yaowu asked, "We did nothing wrong, why do we need to settle?"

"What else? He stayed in there for half a month, and you guys stayed in there for half a month too? Are you stupid? Didn't you know to run away after beating someone up? And you were caught in here. Besides, don't you know to put yourself in a sack?" Ji Ling was scolding four people. When Wu Qi came out, he heard these words.

Wu Qi's eyes widened and he looked at Ji Ling in disbelief. Ji Ling seemed very timid just now, but who would have thought that she had such a side behind the scenes.

Ji Ling didn't care at all about being heard. When she saw Wu Jian coming out, she said bluntly, "Be careful when you walk at night next time. You never know when you might get beaten again."

"Ji Ling, you are threatening me." Wu Qi said angrily.

Ji Ling looked at her suspiciously, "Do you know me?"

Wu Qi felt guilty, "You are so famous, of course I recognize you."

Ji Ling didn't think so, "But in my opinion, you should know me in another way."

"I don't understand what you're saying." Wu Qi protected his brother by his side. "No one got anything good from what happened today. I hope this matter will end here. You are all students. You know what the impact will be on you if the incident gets out of hand."

"Who are you threatening?" Zhu Yaowu stepped forward.

Ji Ling reached out to stop him and smiled at Wu Qi and his brother, "You are right. This is our fault. We must reflect on it."

Wu Qi snorted coldly and left with his brother.

Zhu Yaowu got angry and turned away without talking to Ji Ling.

Ji Ling ignored him, hailed a taxi, and asked a few people to get in. Zhu Yaowu was pushed into the car by Zhu Weiming.

Ji Ling reported the address, and the four brothers behind were talking and no one paid attention. When the car stopped and they followed Ji Ling out, they realized something was wrong.

"Sister-in-law, isn't this your home?" Zhu Weiyue said before getting in the car that he would not go back to the compound, but would stay at Ji Ling's place for a few days.

Ji Ling glanced at Zhu Yaowu who was still angry and replied, "Today I will teach you what it means to play the pig and eat the tiger."

The four people didn’t understand.

Ji Ling pointed to the neighborhood behind them and said, "This is where Professor Wu lives. Didn't you feel wronged just now? Let's go and apologize to Professor Wu now."

"Apologize?" Zhu Weiyue didn't understand yet, but Zhu Weiming already knew.

He smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is right. We should indeed apologize for beating Wu Jian."

"Yes, and I'm still a student. What if Professor Wu gets angry and makes things difficult for me? So we should apologize." Ji Ling said, and walked to the guard to set an example for the four people, "Uncle, uncle?"

It was late at night, and Ji Ling called several times before the old man on duty got up and said, "Miss, what's the matter so late at night?"

Ji Ling lowered her head. "Uncle, I brought my uncles here to apologize to Professor Wu Wen. Although it was his son who was harassing me and secretly took the letter my husband wrote to me, my uncles shouldn't have gone to find Professor Wu's son, let alone hurt him while hiding. Could you please let us in? Although it's late, we are here to apologize sincerely."

The four Zhu brothers: The security guard was furious and said, "You are making a fuss. You seduced someone else's wife and injured the man's family. How can we let you come here to apologize?"
