Chapter 42: Little Suizi Protecting Her Husband

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Little Suizi Protecting Her Husband

Suizi rushed anxiously towards the Broadcasting Room, afraid that if she was too late, Yu Jingting might get into trouble.

Just as she arrived at the broadcasting room door, she saw a few people preparing to push the door open.

With sharp eyes, Suizi noticed the village chief and some uniformed police officers, one of whom was holding a notebook.

They must be conducting a household census.

Without thinking, Suizi shouted:

"Uncle! What are you doing with all these policemen!"

Suizi usually spoke softly and gently, but today, she was shouting so hard that she almost lost her voice.

If Yu Jingting was still inside hitting Li Youcai, it wouldn’t be good if these people saw. She could only hope that streetwise Jingting would act sensibly today and stay out of trouble.

"Ahh, Suizi." The village chief paused when he noticed her.

The two policemen looked her way, one of them brightening up.

"Chen Hansui!"

"It’s you, Liao Yong."

Suizi recognised Liao Yong; he was a fellow vocational school classmate.

Seeing a familiar face put Suizi more at ease.

She maintained her loud volume, doing her best to buy time for Yu Jingting.

"Liao Yong, so you became a guardian of the people after graduation, focusing on catching ’bad guys’. It suits you perfectly! "

Suizi deliberately put heavy emphasis on the words ’bad guys’.

A subtle reminder to the number one "bad guy" from the Wang family inside the room, to manage his actions, stop soon and tidy up the scene if time allowed.

This loud shouting left Liao Yong’s eardrums buzzing and he looked at Suizi in confusion.

Chen Hansui was known for speaking very little in school, she was very conservative, good with female students but rarely interacted with male students.

Now, back in her hometown, she not only greets men but also does so loudly?

"Suizi, do you know this comrade?" the village chief asked.

"He is—"

Before Suizi finished speaking, the door to the broadcasting room opened and out came Yu Jingting, supporting a faint Li Youcai. His piercing eyes ignored the bystanders and landed on Liao Yong.

The uniformed young man facing him was tall and stalwart with thick eyebrows and big eyes. The phrase ’messenger of justice’ might as well have been written on his face. Yu Jingting squinted his eyes.

"What happened to Youcai?" The village chief asked.

Actually, these people had also been attracted by the extraordinary broadcast and had hurried over after completing the household survey.

"I was reasoning with him, and this young man probably felt guilty for his actions which caused him to faint out of shame."

Yu Jingting’s response made Suizi’s eyes widen.

This is what it meant to white-wash a black lie. She had truly witnessed it now. Few can compete with the streetwise guy when it came to the thickness of skin.

Liao Yong was still looking at Suizi, oblivious to what Yu Jingting had said. The slightly older police officer who came with Liao Yong, however, spoke up.

"Are you Yu Jingting? We received a complaint that you’ve been bullying men and dominating women in this area. Is this true?"

"Which villager claimed that?" Yu Jingting frowned.

The man pointed to the unconscious Li Youcai.

"Are the injuries on his body your doing?"

If Yu Jingting admits it, he would at least be detained for a few days.

Suizi was worried Yu Jingting would lose his cool and confront everyone. She quickly tugged at him and shook her head.

"My husband does have a temper, but to accuse him of bullying and domineering is simply too far-fetched. Do you have any evidence? The law requires evidence. I believe you all are fair enforcers of the law and wouldn’t arrest someone based on unfounded rumors."

"And who are you?"

"I am Chen Hansui, Yu Jingting’s wife."

Suizi deliberately avoided confirming whether the injuries on Li Youcai were inflicted by Yu Jingting or not. She didn’t give a direct answer.

"If you’re saying my husband assaulted someone, please present valid evidence. Either an eyewitness or physical evidence would suffice, right?"

None of those who witnessed Yu Jingting fighting last night dared to step forward. His reputation was such that few dared to cross him.

"Exactly. Our village is a model village. If there were such cases of bullying and domination, I, as the village chief, would definitely be aware of it." The village chief immediately echoed Suizi.

The presence of a bully in the village would undoubtedly affect the village chief’s re-election, so regardless of whether there was any evidence, the answer would always be no.

"The woman who reported you is called Lun Lamei. She and Li Youcai are involved in an illicit relationship. They both hold a grudge against me and have been spreading vicious rumors about my family. The entire village can testify to that." Suizi steered the narrative in a direction that favored her side.

"Damn! I knew it was her doing!"Yu Jingting was appreciating his wife’s articulate defense when he heard this and charged up again.

Suizi gave him a warning look and gestured to him to keep quiet.

Yu Jingting obstinately turned his head to the side, silently fuming and plotting a hundred ways to deal with Lun Lamei.

Liao Yong looked surprised, and it took a moment for him to find his voice again.

"Chen Hansui, you...you...you got married?!"

Back in school, there were quite a few people who liked Suizi.

Suizi was beautiful, gentle and excelled acadically. Everyone thought she would be allocated to a university or a stable company because of her excellent academic achievements, especially if she had a bit of connection.

They lost contact after graduation, and Liao Yong felt disappointed. Now, seeing her again, she was married?!

Mention of this matter inflated Yu Jingting’s confidence. Without waiting for Suizi to respond, he laid his hands on Suizi’s shoulders.

Claiming ownership!

Li Youcai, who was being supported by him, slid to the ground and collapsed into a heap once Yu Jingting let go of him.

"We got our marriage certificate two months ago. Now, she even carries my child in her womb. Hey, you were my wife’s schoolmate? Why didn’t you come for a drink at our wedding?"

Being a male himself, Yu Jingting could not ignore the unusual way this man was looking at his wife. What, did he think he was invisible?

"Well, you sure moved fast." the older police officer commented.

"How can a man be fast? Bro, I don’t like what you’re implying. Right, honey?" Yu Jingting said snidely.

Suizi blushed, of course he wasn’t fast. He never was and he never will be. Her fear of him in her previous life was also related to this. He was huge and never knew when to stop - Damn it!

Suizi stepped on him again to suppress her thoughts that had been led astray by the streetwise guy.

"Uh..." The older police officer who had misspoke was embarrassed.

Besides the thick-skinned Yu Jingting, no one else felt at ease.

Liao Yong looked at Suizi, once the goddess of his campus, then at Yu Jingting. No matter how he looked at him, Yu Jingting did not seem like a good person.

It wasn’t that he was ugly, in fact, he looked spirited and robust. When he stood by Suizi’s side without uttering a word, they even gave off a beauty-and-the-beast vibe. However, once he opened his mouth... it was unspeakable.

"Chen Hansui, are you really—" Liao Yong wanted to ask, did you do it willingly?

"Did anyone force you?" The older officer bluntly asked. The villagers had already reported that Yu Jingting was no good. Now seeing that Yu Jingting even had an educated and beautiful wife, the more they looked, the more suspicious it was.

"What the hell do you—" Just as he was about to finish the sentence, Suizi hit him.
