"Mom, Sis, it's been three years without us knowing."
"I wonder how you two have been all this time?"
"From now on, I will definitely make sure you live a happy life!"
Thinking of these two closest people to him, Du Fei's face was filled with tenderness.
Letting out a sigh, Du Fei walked into Du Family Village.
Three years ago, when Du Fei left, Du Family Village was still full of tile-roofed houses and cement roads. But now, every household had built a two-story villa, and the village roads were paved with asphalt, neat and wide.
He never expected Du Family Village to change so much in just three years.
Soon, Du Fei saw his own three-story villa.
Perhaps Du Fei's family's three-story villa wasn't much now, but three years ago, only Du Fei's family could afford to build a villa in the entire Du Family Village.
This was all because Du Fei's father, Du Wenzhong, had vision and foresight, being the first in the village to engage in aquaculture and grain transportation.
Walking to the door, Du Fei's excitement became uncontrollable as he thought about seeing his mother and sister whom he hadn't seen in a long time.
Taking a deep breath, Du Fei reached out his hand, intending to knock on the door.
Creak.
Unexpectedly, just as Du Fei reached out to knock, the iron gate was opened from the inside.
"Du Fei?"
The person inside exclaimed immediately after looking up.
After exclaiming, their eyes darted around, and they immediately changed their expression, forcing a smile. "Xiao Fei, weren't you sentenced to ten years? How did you get out so quickly?"
"Auntie? Where's Mom?"
As Du Fei spoke, he intended to bypass his aunt and find his mother.
However, the aunt standing at the door showed no intention of moving aside.
Du Fei frowned slightly.
"Your mom moved back to the old house. I'm busy."
Du Fei's aunt said impatiently, and without inviting him in to sit, she locked the main door right in front of him.
Heh.
The warmth and coldness of human relationships were perfectly exemplified by Du Fei's aunt.
Back then, when Du Fei's father became the first millionaire in the village, his uncle's family visited every few days.
Besides showing concern for Du Fei's mother, his aunt never came empty-handed when visiting Du Fei's house.
She acted as if they were inseparable.
But now, with Du Fei returning from prison, his aunt treated him like a stranger upon seeing him. This was a stark contrast to the past.
Never mind, he didn't have time to argue with her.
Why did his mother move back to the old house?
Despite some doubts in his heart, Du Fei's only thought at this moment was to see his mother and sister as quickly as possible.
The old house was the one where Du Fei's grandparents used to live.
It wasn't far from his house, and with Du Fei walking quickly, he arrived in a few minutes.
By the courtyard wall of the old house, his mother, Wu Chunmei, was sitting on the ground. Du Fei's sister, Du Yunyun, stood beside her, arguing angrily with someone.
"Mom!"
Du Fei took two quick steps and arrived beside his mother.
Wu Chunmei initially thought she had misheard. When she looked up and saw Du Fei in front of her, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
"Xiao Fei, is it really you? Mom missed you so much."
Du Fei hugged his mother tightly. "Mom, it's me, I'm back. From now on, I'm not going anywhere."
"Brother."
Du Yunyun, standing beside them, also had red eyes and a choked voice.
Du Fei stood up, patted Du Yunyun's head, and asked, "Little sister, what happened?"
"Yo, the convict is back?"
Du Fei turned around and looked coldly at the few people in front of him.
With just that glance, the people in front of him felt a chill, as if they were being stared at by a venomous snake.
"Brother, Du Dabao wanted to smash our house and pushed Mom down!"
At this moment, seeing Du Fei appear, Du Yunyun seemed to have found her backbone and became bolder. She stepped forward and pointed at the leader of the opposing group.
Hearing that his mother was pushed down, a murderous intent immediately surged from Du Fei.
Bang!
In the next moment, everyone saw a blur before their eyes, and Du Fei had already grabbed Du Dabao, the leader, by his collar and lifted him up.
Du Dabao was over 1.8 meters tall and weighed over 110 kilograms, like a small calf. He was the type who could scare children into crying just by glaring at them on normal days.
But at this moment, Du Fei lifted his large frame as if he were carrying a chick.
"Pushing my mom and wanting to smash our house? Du Dabao, I think you're tired of living!"
Du Fei's voice was cold, as if from hell.
Du Dabao struggled to breathe, his eyes bulging, and his tongue hanging out.
"Let Brother Bao go!"
"Damn it, this convict wants to kill Brother Bao."
"Let's get him together!"
Seeing Du Dabao on the verge of death, the remaining few people shouted and charged at Du Fei.
"Brother! Be careful!"
Du Yunyun was afraid Du Fei would be at a disadvantage.
But unexpectedly, Du Fei used Du Dabao, whom he was holding, like a broom and swept away all the charging people in a few strokes, knocking them to the ground.
Bang!
Du Fei threw Du Dabao aside like trash.
Speaking of Du Dabao, he was quite famous in Du Family Village.
However, it wasn't a good reputation, but a notorious one.
This guy was an orphan, and he had associated with shady characters since he was young. As he grew up, relying on his imposing physique and the fact that he had no one to care for, his reckless nature made him tyrannical and bullying in Du Family Village.
"Hoo, hoo..."
Du Dabao gasped for air, and it took him quite a while to recover.
"Du, Du Fei, you served a few years in prison and think you're amazing, huh? You dare to oppose me, Du Dabao, be careful I'll burn... Ah!"
"Du Dabao! I'm telling you one last time!" Du Fei stepped on his chest. "If you dare touch a single hair on my family members, I'll make sure you don't see tomorrow's sun!"
"What are you looking at? Get out, all of you!"
At this moment, Du Fei was exuding an unparalleled dominance.
These guys had actually recovered by then, but they were all opportunists. Seeing that the most formidable Du Dabao was easily defeated by Du Fei, they dared not make any rash moves.
Du Dabao wanted to leave some threatening words, but the pain in his chest and neck persisted, so he could only stare at Du Fei's retreating back, gritting his teeth.
After speaking, Du Fei turned around, completely disregarding Du Dabao and the others.
He helped Wu Chunmei up and, with Du Yunyun in his other arm, the three of them walked into the house side by side.
"Mom, little sister, why did you move back to the old house? And what was going on with those people just now?"
After helping his mother sit down, Du Fei asked.
This old house had been practically uninhabited since his grandparents passed away.
Although Du Fei's father had spent money to repair it in the meantime, it was an old house that had been unoccupied for decades, so it looked very old, with some places even missing tiles.
"Alas, it's all my fault..."
Wu Chunmei sighed deeply. After Du Fei's father had an accident, and Du Fei was also imprisoned, losing two family members at once, Du Fei's mother and sister were greatly affected.
But they both firmly believed that Du Fei was innocent, so they tried everything they could to rescue Du Fei.
