I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 853: Kicking the Iron Plate

Chapter 853: Chapter 853: Kicking the Iron Plate

Suizi was originally standing in front of the large iron gate, but now there was a hole in the gate.

The iron gate had actually been pierced through.

If it hadn’t been for Yu Jingting instinctively pulling Suizi out of the way, it would have been Suizi with a hole through her body.

"Damn bitch! Stay away from Sister Nan! Otherwise, next time I’ll blow your head off!" a warning came from the mouth of the alley.

Then came the sound of a motorcycle speeding away.

"Damn!" Yu Jingting pushed Suizi into the Courtyard and drove off in pursuit.

"Be careful!" Suizi yelled after his retreating figure.

In the Courtyard, Suizi found a bullet head.

They actually came with a gun!

There was no complete ban on guns at this time, and possessing firearms wasn’t that unusual, but the fact that the warning was shouted in Cantonese suggested it was probably aimed at Jinnan.

The attacker probably thought Yu Jingting was a pushover, someone they could bully as a warning.

Turned out, they kicked an iron plate.

Back in the day in their village, Yu Jingting was the kind of man who, if a dog barked at him twice, would chase it out of the village with a stick. And now someone had the nerve to show up on his doorstep and threaten his wife!

As if he would stand for that.

Suizi watched anxiously, hoping Jingting wouldn’t be at a disadvantage against someone with a weapon. It hadn’t been five minutes of anxious waiting when Yu Jingting’s car, like a flash of lightning, zoomed back.

He got out of the car like a god descending, all imposing.

Opening the trunk, he pulled out a big bundle.

Suizi took a closer look and her heart settled down.

As long as it wasn’t her family members at a disadvantage, anything was acceptable.

A man with yellow hair was bound tightly by Yu Jingting, turned into a glutinous rice dumpling, with a sock stuffed in his mouth – and he was still mumbling through it.

Yu Jingting dragged the man out and threw him on the ground, then gave him two more kicks.

"Show off! Keep showing off in front of me!"

"Mmm mmm mmm!" The man continued to curse through the sock.

"First, get him inside the Courtyard, don’t let the neighbors see," Suizi was still pretty concerned about their reputation.

Uncle Si was enjoying tea in the Tea Room with Fan Huang, who rarely had the time.

"Jingting has really become more reliable. These past few days, I’ve received a lot of calls, all of them praises for him. He’s been doing really well in the Special Zone, helping the local farmers towards prosperity, and they’re lining up to sing his praises," Fan Huang said, clearly pleased with his son-in-law, as he’s often received calls from local leaders.

"That’s because our Suizi knows how to manage her husband. This kid wasn’t focused on serious matters before marriage; a well-guided wife makes a trouble-free husband," Uncle Si said.

The two old men complimented each other’s children, both quite satisfied.

No sooner had they finished praising Yu Jingting than they saw him dragging a tightly bound person into the Courtyard, cursing all the while.

Suizi followed closely behind him, not forgetting to cautiously close the big gate.

Fan Huang & Uncle Si: ...

It really is ill-fated praise. We’ve just complimented the kids on being steady, and they bring back someone all tied up?

After three seconds of silence, Fan Huang stood up.

"Suddenly remembered I still have unfinished work. I must go. When Suizi comes back, tell her to visit me. I have some fine tea set aside for her," Fan Huang opted for selective blindness.

"Alright, when Tiegen ’also’ comes back, I’ll have both kids visit," Uncle Si also chose selective blindness.

Clearly, Suizi and her husband had entered their chamber, but both fathers intermittently turned a blind eye, choosing to trust in Suizi and her husband.

Kids’ business should be left to kids, adults joining in spoils the fun.

After Fan Huang left, passing by the side room, he could still hear Yu Jingting’s fierce voice:

"Who sent you here? Too stubborn to talk? Wife, bring me the chili water!"

Fan Huang quickened his step, yeah, he heard nothing.

Yu Jingting unleashed a torrent of fury on Huang Mao, hitting and cursing him, repeatedly demanding a confession.

From staunch defiance at the outset, Huang Mao’s expression turned to one of aggrieved helplessness—this man’s mouth was positively toxic, and he had never heard anyone curse with such venom. Even if he’d wanted to confess, it wasn’t an option with a sock stuffed in his mouth.

"Good, it seems this guy would rather die than confess. He’s got some backbone, alright. In that case, I’ll oblige you. Wife, fetch the bone-carving knife—do we still have cement?"

Huang Mao felt a chill at Yu Jingting’s words. What... what’s he planning to do?

Was he going to chop him up and sink him with cement in the sea?

Suizi watched Huang Mao shivering in fear and finally spoke up.

"Husband, maybe he wants to confess? Should we take out the sock first?"

Huang Mao nodded vigorously, ah, right, right!

"Spill it, which dog sent you here?" Yu Jingting removed the sock from Huang Mao’s mouth, somewhat ruefully, "Shame about my new socks, pure cotton too..."

"No one sent me, I just really don’t want you to be with Jinnan!" Huang Mao had lost his bluster, looking at Yu Jingting with fear in his eyes—weren’t mainlanders supposed to be honest and straightforward?

The thuglike man in front of him seemed more like a gangster than he did, and what was more frightening was that he actually had a car!

Huang Mao felt his entire worldview being overturned.

He remembered the newspapers on the island clearly stating that over here, people had only just started to have enough to eat and having a bicycle at home meant you were wealthy.

That was why he’d dared to cross over on a stolen motorbike to cause trouble, confident that Yu Jingting couldn’t catch up to him.

But then, Yu Jingting drove a car... Huang Mao now felt utterly disoriented, as if all the information he had received was incorrect.

"Oh, so it looks like you’re still intent on stubbornly resisting, huh? Fine, have it your way. Wife, the bone-carving knife—"

With a strong pull from Yu Jingting, one end of the rope binding Huang Mao was thrown over the beam, and Huang Mao was hoisted off the ground.

Suizi dutifully handed over the knife, also taking up the role of commentator.

"We were supposed to have roast whole lamb tonight, Dad spent half the night sharpening the knife. It might not slice through iron like mud, but it’s sharp enough for cutting meat."

Chop, chop what meat? Huang Mao jumped again, thinking how could such a seemingly soft and delicate girl speak with such merciless intent?

"Your life has improved so much you can eat roast whole lamb now?" Huang Mao’s teeth chattered as he desperately tried to engage them in conversation, hoping the terrifying couple would spare him.

"Hmm, not enough lamb, why not make up the difference?"

Huang Mao was on the verge of tears. How could this girl look so sweet yet speak so venomously?

"I’m telling the truth! No one sent me; I just really don’t want him to be with Jinnan! I’ve loved Jinnan for many years, and even though she doesn’t fancy me, she shouldn’t end up with a mainlander!"

"Why do you think my husband would end up with Jinnan?" Suizi found it very strange.

If there were any rumors, wouldn’t they be about her and Jinnan?

Upon hearing Suizi’s question, Huang Mao briefly forgot about the glint of the knife, bristling with indignation:

"Isn’t it because the boss took a fancy to him? He insisted on having an arranged marriage. Although I’m just a pauper now, I’ve got ambition, and my feelings for Jinnan are sincere! I’d even be willing to share her with the sisters from the nightclub! Why not choose me..."

Suizi understood.

Huang Mao was but a hanger-on in unrequited love with Jinnan, having come with her to push Yu Jingting into backing off. But the problem was—

"Isn’t Jinnan the White Paper Fan? Could it be—" Suizi suddenly realized.

"Jinnan, what’s her real name?"

"Yu Zhaodi, aren’t you guys about to be related by marriage and you still don’t know this?"
