A five-day holiday is neither too long nor too short.
Xu Zhitie was still riding high after returning from the county town, even more so than before.
Chen Yunyun praised Xu Zhitie highly in front of everyone at the factory.
Zhao Laowu, a newcomer to the patrol team, stood with Chen Laosan. Zhao Laowu nudged Chen Laosan with his elbow.
"Brother Chen, you said you're the factory manager's younger brother? Then why does she seem to treat Xu Zhitie better than you?"
It's no wonder that Zhao Laowu had such a question.
Chen Yunyun was too good to Xu Zhitie. She praised him at the meeting and took him to handle all kinds of affairs in the factory. It was as if she was grooming Xu Zhitie to be the next factory director.
"I heard that Director Chen will only be working for another year or two before resigning. It seems like the position will eventually go to Deputy Director Xu..."
Chen Laosan was furious. "What do you know! I'm her own brother. I'm the closest to her!"
Zhao Laowu sneered, "You're her own brother, how come you're made to work as a patrolman like me, having to watch people's faces every day? You're just bragging, Director Chen doesn't even give you a second glance."
The meeting ended, and the patrol teams returned to their posts.
Without waiting for Chen Laosan, Zhao Laowu rolled his eyes and went to discuss switching groups with the patrol captain.
Feeling extremely aggrieved by the mockery, Chen Laosan skipped lunch and went straight to Chen Yunyun's house.
The farmhouse wall was low, and Chen Laosan climbed over it with a little effort.
He climbed over into the chicken coop, and the chicks were startled and started squawking.
Xu Jingtian heard the commotion and, thinking it was Chen Yunyun returning, happily went outside, exclaiming, "Mother, look!"
She wore a pretty little dress she brought back from the capital; the white princess dress made her look exceptionally radiant.
When Xu Jingtian realized that it was Chen Laosan standing next to the chicken coop, not Chen Yunyun, her face darkened. "How come it's you?"
Chen Yunyun wasn't home. Chen Laosan came out of the chicken coop, and his gaze on Xu Jingtian was filled with nauseating emotion.
"You look beautiful." Old Chen walked towards Xu Jingtian with a malicious smile on his face. "Tell your uncle, how old are you?"
Xu Jingtian was very vigilant. The man's gaze made her feel uncomfortable. She ignored Chen Laosan's words and turned to run back into the house.
"Why are you running? Uncle won't eat you. Let me see your little skirt." Old Chen chased after him into the house.
Chen Yunyun pushed open the door and came in, with Xu Jingrun following behind her. They were running low on firewood; they had just returned from chopping wood on the mountain, and both of them were carrying branches in their hands.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Xu Jingtian's cries for help.
"Mother—"
"elder brother--"
"Help me!"
Xu Jingtian is in trouble!
Chen Yunyun threw down the firewood and rushed into the house. The scene that greeted her made her heart leap into her throat.
Xu Jingtian squatted on the ground against the wall, hugging her knees with her hands, her hair disheveled.
Hearing Chen Yunyun come in, Chen Laosan withdrew his hand from Xu Jingtian's hair.
"Sister, you're back?"
Xu Jingtian, who was squatting down, suddenly rushed over and hugged Chen Yunyun tightly, her small body trembling uncontrollably.
Chen Yunyun was heartbroken. She looked closely and saw that Xu Jingtian's hair was messy and there were scratches on her hands, but her clothes were neat.
Chen Laosan probably didn't cause her any real harm, but this has already touched a nerve with Chen Yunyun!
[Mind reading ability activated, effect lasts for five minutes]
Chen Yunyun looked at Chen Laosan and asked coldly, "What were you doing just now?"
Chen Laosan, without blushing or panting, said, "I didn't do anything. I just chatted with her. Who knew this child was so easily teased? Why is she crying? I didn't do anything."
[Chen Laosan's inner thoughts: Little brat, it's an honor for you that I can touch you. Don't be ungrateful, stop crying!]
[Chen Laosan's inner thoughts: That ingrate Chen Zhaodi, she came back at the worst possible time! Damn it, she ruined my plans!]
[Chen Laosan's inner thoughts: This little girl has such smooth skin. I'll come back someday when Chen Yunyun isn't around!]
Chen Yunyun was furious after hearing only half of what was said.
It's so dirty!
Xu Jingtian is only six years old!
Chen Yunyun clenched her fists. She originally wanted to slowly boil the frog in water and let Xu Zhitie and Chen Laosan fight like dogs.
But I never expected Chen Laosan to pull this stunt.
Xu Jingtian was in Chen Yunyun's arms, her hot tears soaking the collar of Chen Yunyun's clothes.
Chen Yunyun was no longer willing to tolerate it. Even if the King of Heaven himself came, she would still kill that bastard Chen Laosan!
A murderous glint in one's eye cannot be hidden.
Chen Laosan noticed that Chen Yunyun's gaze towards him was becoming increasingly cold and ruthless.
He sensed something was wrong and began to try to fix it.
"No, I really didn't do anything."
"They're just a little burden, is it really that big of a deal? They're not related to you by blood, I'm your real brother!"
Anything he says now will only add fuel to the fire.
Chen Yunyun handed Xu Jingtian over to Xu Jingrun, took the children to the outer room, rolled up her sleeves, and closed the door behind her.
When he turned around, his murderous intent was undisguised.
"Trying to be a scoundrel, is that it?"
"I'll fucking make sure you never get to have fun again!"
Before Chen Laosan could react, Chen Yunyun kicked him away, sending him crashing into the earthen wall behind him, scattering dirt and sand everywhere.
Old Chen propped himself up and roared, "Are you crazy? How dare you hit me!"
Chen Yunyun was no longer listening to him. "Go to hell, you scumbag! Die!"
Chen Yunyun gathers her strength and sprints forward.
He kicked Chen Laosan hard in the temple.
Chen Laosan tried to block it with his hand, but failed. He let out a wail and collapsed to the ground.
Chen Yunyun didn't stop. She flipped Chen Laosan over and punched him relentlessly, leaving no part of his body unscathed.
[Host, stop hitting him! Killing him will bring karmic consequences!]
Chen Yunyun couldn't listen; all she could think about was the scene she had witnessed when she came in.
She couldn't help but ask herself, what would happen to Xu Jingtian if she came back late?
Xu Jingtian is only six years old. Is she going to be sexually assaulted just because she wore a white dress?!
Chen Yunyun had never been so angry before; she wished she could beat Chen Laosan to death.
[Host, please stop fighting!]
Chen Yunyun straightened up and withdrew her hand.
The system breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Chen Yunyun raised her foot and stomped down hard.
"ah--"
Chen Laosan screamed in agony. He had been kicked unconscious, but the pain woke him up immediately. He covered his groin with both hands, sweating profusely and in great pain.
The system was stunned. [Host...]
From the next room, they could hear the noise coming from this room.
Xu Jingrun loosened his clenched fists, and Xu Jingtian, no longer in the mood to cry, ran over anxiously, saying, "Mother!"
She was afraid that Chen Yunyun would be arrested for assaulting someone.
Chen Yunyun said gently, "A-Tian, don't come in. Be good."
The place is too dirty; don't let it offend the children's eyes.
