Lin Ziton had been in Chenjia Village for over a month, and the villagers were very friendly. This was the first time she had seen anyone provoke Yan Shouyi.
She knew Yan Shouyi's temper. If these two young men hadn't gone too far, Yan Shouyi would never have gotten angry, let alone kicked their car into a ditch.
So she frowned and asked Yan Shouyi in a low voice, "Are you sure you're not going to pursue this, just let it go?"
Yan Shouyi shrugged, "What's there to argue with these guys about? Let's see them get their car out of the ditch first."
Lin Ziton also thought Yan Shouyi made sense. To avoid upsetting him, she simply linked her arm through his and said, "I'll go fishing with you today!"
Wang Dazhi and Chen Lao Ba stared with wide eyes.
Such a beautiful woman, and so understanding and considerate. Not to mention Chenjia Village, even in Rongcheng, you wouldn't find one like her even with a lantern!
And she was married to Yan Shouyi, who had no power, no influence, and no money?
Just thinking about it made them incredibly jealous!
Chen Lao Ba was an experienced womanizer. He usually spent lavishly in Rongcheng and had charmed all sorts of women. Therefore, he instinctively thought Lin Ziton wasn't an unattainable woman. He confidently stepped forward and handed over his business card.
"It must have been a misunderstanding just now. Sister-in-law, this is my business card. Let's exchange contact information. It's good to have friends to help with matters. Who knows, we might have business dealings in the future?"
As Chen Lao Ba spoke, he kept blinking, looking no different from a rutting poodle.
He deliberately exposed his Rolex watch, worth tens of thousands of yuan, to highlight his status as a wealthy man.
This trick had worked very well in the past, but today, in front of Lin Ziton, the outcome was different.
Lin Ziton didn't even glance at Chen Lao Ba. She didn't even reach out to take the business card and completely ignored him.
Yan Shouyi, however, took the business card and casually tossed it into the ditch:
"Lao Ba, do you really think I, Yan Shouyi, have no temper?"
Overtly seducing someone else's wife was more than just an insult.
Fortunately, Yan Shouyi had calmed down considerably during this time. Otherwise, he would have thrown a punch long ago. With his current strength, Chen Lao Ba probably wouldn't have survived even one punch and would have gone to meet the King of Hell on the spot.
So Yan Shouyi restrained himself, but only by a thread.
If the other party pushed his luck further, he wouldn't show any mercy.
Chen Lao Ba was startled by Yan Shouyi at first. He felt that in Rongcheng, he was a prominent figure and possessed an aura that ordinary people couldn't easily look at. But in front of Yan Shouyi just now, he felt like a powerless child.
Yan Shouyi's gaze seemed capable of killing!
But after a few seconds, Chen Lao Ba suddenly realized he seemed to have been intimidated by Yan Shouyi. He had just returned to the village and already suffered such a loss of face. How could that be allowed?
Thinking that Yan Shouyi was merely a carpenter by birth, with no power, no influence, and no money, clearly just a pauper to be bullied, Chen Lao Ba suddenly felt confident.
He intended to openly snatch Yan Shouyi's wife!
So he shouted at Yan Shouyi's retreating back, "Yan Shouyi, you married a beautiful wife, and you think you're hot stuff! You're just a carpenter, building beds and repairing houses for people. What's there to be proud of?"
"Your wife is still naive to choose to be with you. When you have no money in the future, she will ruthlessly abandon you!"
"Do you really think you've found true love? Believe it or not, I can produce a million yuan in minutes and get your wife remarried... Pfft!!"
Before Chen Lao Ba could finish speaking, he was suddenly struck with immense force, sent flying through the air, and slammed into the courtyard wall of Yan Shouyi's house!
He clutched his chest, as if he had just been hit by a locomotive. He didn't know how many ribs were broken!
"Cough, cough... cough, cough..." He coughed continuously, blood also flowing from the corners of his mouth.
Wang Dazhi watched from the side, dumbfounded. In the previous second, Yan Shouyi was carrying them out of the village, and in the next, he appeared in front of Chen Lao Ba and kicked him flying!
Was this something a human could do?
Yan Shouyi retracted his leg and said coldly, "I didn't want to bother with you before out of consideration for you being a fellow villager, but you've gone too far, not knowing your limits. How about it, am I easy to bully?"
As he spoke, he lightly "patted" the hood of the Mercedes-Benz twice, leaving two handprint-shaped dents.
Chen Lao Ba's heart pounded with fear. Only then did he realize that Yan Shouyi was no ordinary person. At least his formidable physique was enough for him to take on the entire village single-handedly and walk around with impunity!
Chen Lao Ba shouted fearfully, "Yan Shouyi is hitting people! He, an outsider, is hitting people from our Chenjia Village! Everyone, please come and help, uphold justice!"
Most of the surrounding villagers were surnamed Chen and were locals of Chenjia Village. Some were even relatives of Chen Lao Ba.
But at this moment, no one stepped forward to help Chen Lao Ba.
Firstly, they generally liked Yan Shouyi more, and secondly, Chen Lao Ba's words earlier were indeed excessive.
Yan Shouyi had saved their lives!
As for Chen Lao Ba, he was just a young man from Chenjia Village, at most having some ill-gotten money. He had never helped the villagers!
Therefore, Yan Shouyi was the one with popular support. At this moment, not even one person was willing to step forward to help Chen Lao Ba up.
The village chief said sternly, "Lao Ba, you were indeed talking too recklessly just now. As the saying goes, disaster comes from the mouth! Apologize to Shouyi quickly and ask for his forgiveness!"
Chen Lao Ba looked at the village chief in disbelief. He was the one who was beaten, yet he was being asked to apologize?
Yan Shouyi should be the one apologizing. He had no right to make me apologize to him!
Lin Ziton looked at Chen Lao Ba with disdain and said lightly:
"I've seen at least eight hundred to a thousand of your kind of self-important fellows in Rongcheng. Do you really think that little bit of money you have is so great? Money to me is just a meaningless string of numbers!"
Wang Dazhi still hadn't come to his senses, his mind only focused on speaking up for Chen Lao Ba so that Chen Lao Ba would owe him a favor in the future.
So he quickly went to help Chen Lao Ba up and retorted to Lin Ziton, "Your family is poor and hasn't seen money. Do you know how much a million yuan is?"
"I indeed don't know," Lin Ziton smiled, "because I've never seen so little money."
Wang Dazhi was stunned: "Bragging should have limits. A million yuan is still considered little?"
This statement was a joke in Wang Dazhi's eyes, and an even bigger joke in Lin Ziton's eyes.
The money she handled in Rongcheng was at least tens of millions to hundreds of millions. She genuinely didn't know the concept of a mere million yuan.
Chen Lao Ba gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Shouyi... you remember this, you dare to go back to Rongcheng. If you dare to go back, I'll definitely find someone to cripple your legs!"
Unappreciative!
A cold glint flashed in Yan Shouyi's eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, a commotion suddenly arose at the village entrance.
Someone was running and shouting, "Everyone run! The triad is here!"
Everyone froze.
What triad?
Hadn't that disappeared long ago?
A few years ago, the country launched a campaign against organized crime, and anyone with even a little power was arrested and imprisoned. Nowadays, people didn't even dare to shout for reinforcements when fighting, for fear of being considered part of the triad.
Then, at the village entrance, a black Rolls-Royce Cullinan led the way, followed by a fleet of Mercedes-Benz Maybachs, and then some Mercedes-Benz S-Class. These cars drove into Chenjia Village in a neat procession, filling the narrow village paths.
The people in the cars were all men wearing black suits and sunglasses, with serious expressions and unsmiling faces, giving off an aura of being unapproachable.
They looked very intimidating!
If this wasn't the triad, what else could it be?
The villagers immediately became vigilant, fearing they would be bullied by this group of triads from outside. Some even ran home to get hoes as weapons.
Yan Shouyi was also puzzled. Even if it were the triad, why would they come to Chenjia Village, this impoverished remote area?
Were they bored?
At this moment, the convoy quickly drove to Yan Shouyi's doorstep. Due to the presence of Wang Dazhi and Chen Lao Ba's cars, the large Cullinan could no longer advance.
The convoy stopped.
An old man wearing a Zhongshan suit stepped out of the car.
Chen Lao Ba saw that the person had an extraordinary aura and must be some kind of big shot, especially since he was driving a super-luxury car like the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. He absolutely couldn't afford to offend him.
So, despite his broken ribs, he took out his Mercedes-Benz key and said to Wang Dazhi,
"Dapao, quickly... take my key and move my car for the elder."
His submissive demeanor was completely different from his arrogant attitude in front of Yan Shouyi just moments ago.
Wang Dazhi took the key and was about to move the car when he heard the old man shake his head and say, "No need to move the cars. We're only going this far. We'll pick someone up and then leave."
Only this far?
Pick someone up?
With such a grand display, they were here to pick someone up?
Everyone became curious. When did Chenjia Village produce someone so capable that a convoy of Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz cars would come specifically to pick them up? Da Feng Fiction
The old man turned to face Yan Shouyi and Lin Ziton and said respectfully,
"This old servant, Ye Chengfu, has come to escort Miss and her son-in-law back to Rongcheng!"
Upon hearing this, the entire crowd erupted in an uproar, especially Wang Dazhi and Chen Lao Ba.
The other villagers in the village had always thought Yan Shouyi was a promising young man, they just didn't know how promising he was.
But Wang Dazhi and Chen Lao Ba had always thought Yan Shouyi was just a poor pauper with no power or influence, who was lucky to marry a beautiful wife.
But now it seemed things were not that simple!
Such an extravagant and luxurious convoy had come to pick them up to return to Rongcheng!
Yan Shouyi frowned and asked Ye Chengfu, "Grandpa Ye, why didn't you let us know and just came here looking for us?"
Ye Chengfu said, "There's been a problem with the house the family head had built for Miss and you at West Lake. We're in a hurry for you to return and resolve it."
West Lake had a problem again?
No wonder they were in such a hurry.
Yan Shouyi nodded, understanding. He said, "But since you're already here, don't rush back. Come to my place and sit for a while."
Ye Chengfu did not refuse. He simply waved his hand, instructing his subordinates to park their cars neatly on the side and guard the perimeter of Yan's courtyard.
The group of men in black were well-trained and quickly secured all sides of Yan's courtyard, not letting even a fly through.
Two of the men in black shouted, "Mr. Ye, these two cars are blocking the entrance to son-in-law's house!"
Ye Chengfu merely glanced at them, realizing that these two cars did not belong to Yan Shouyi's friends. He then said,
"Who dares to park their car in front of our Lin family's son-in-law's house? Isn't this blocking the son-in-law's sunlight? Smash them! Smash them until they're scrap, then haul them out and throw them into the garbage heap at the village entrance! And then set them on fire!"
