Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Slapping the Face 2

A living example of a henpecked husband, scared of his wife to death.

Today, after she had suffered and been beaten, she definitely wouldn’t let Yun Yue and the other one off the hook.

Five minutes later, a slightly overweight middle-aged man rushed in.

Both, the aristocratic lady and the buzz-cut man, lit up when they saw him and went forward to complain.

"Hubby, you’re finally here! Look at my face, it’s all swollen; you must stand up for me!" She cried and lamented.

"Brother-in-law, look at my face, and the injuries on my body, it hurts so much," the buzz-cut man complained, putting on a pitiful face.

The people in the hall watched them emotionlessly.

Hah!

What a pair of odd siblings!

Jin Binbai glanced at her, comforted her with a few words, then his gaze fell on the buzz-cut man and his brow furrowed, "What trouble have you caused this time?"

The buzz-cut man looked at him nervously.

"Mr. Jin, how can you speak to him like that! He’s your brother-in-law!" the aristocratic lady snapped while patting his back, her eyes fierce.

Jin Binbai’s body shuddered, and he flashed an obsequious smile, "Wife, please don’t be angry, I was just asking."

"Not only did that woman hit my brother, but she hit me too. Arrest her!" she demanded with a pleased and arrogant air, pinching her beautifully manicured nails.

"There’s been a misunderstanding here..."

People in the hall couldn’t help but interject.

"No matter what, hitting people is wrong. How can you just leave her be? What if she hits someone again or runs away?" Jin Binbai waved his hand after dealing with business all day and now having to address this petty brawl, what a bunch of useless people he was dealing with.

"Your brother-in-law is suspected of bullying a young girl, I can’t cover that up."

The police officer who had brought Yun Yue and the others back interposed sternly, feeling compelled to intervene to prevent future occurrences, thanking his stars the young girl encountered Yun Yue today, but what about next time?

Jin Binbai’s eyes widened in disbelief, and he turned to look at the buzz-cut man, his anger warming, "Is what he said true? You bullied a young girl?!"

Putting it nicely it’s bullying; putting it harshly it’s rape!

The buzz-cut man didn’t speak, but his guilty look said it all.

"Scumbag!" Jin Binbai slapped him, his audacity getting bigger and bigger!

Good hit!

Green-Haired felt incredibly relieved, things were finally making some sense.

The buzz-cut man staggered from the blow, looking plaintively at the noble lady, "Sister."

"They’re talking nonsense. Why take it seriously? Just give that woman some money and it’ll be settled, these two cannot be let go," the aristocratic lady demanded glaringly, was this trivial matter worth his anger?

Jin Binbai frowned, "But this isn’t a small matter, it could affect my position."

The aristocratic lady sneered, "Give that woman some money and they won’t speak out. Even if they want to, can’t you just suppress it?"

"Are you going to do it or not? If you don’t, don’t expect to have any good days when you get back!"

Jin Binbai looked at her with a headache; he dreaded her reckless and shrewish demeanor.

"Alright, alright, your way then," he rubbed his forehead, dealing with such a wife and brother-in-law, he really had bad luck.

He looked at Yun Yue and the other one, their attire unconventional, not looking like decent folks.

Yun Yue watched the drama unfold, finally witnessing what it meant to abuse official power.

"I dare anyone to touch them!"

Wei Xuan strode in, his head bandaged, with two middle-aged men following behind.

"Boss, you’re finally here. There are dogs here, and they bite," Green-Haired stood up and ran to complain, pretending to be aggrieved - anyone could do that!

The people in the hall glanced at him, an urge to laugh inexplicably.

Just you, son, she couldn’t retort a single word, who would dare to bully you!

"Don’t worry, no one will dare to bully you here today," Wei Xuan arrogantly twisted his head, only then noticing that his bangs had been shaved...

He was going to make that man regret this!

This handsome face was nearly ruined.

"Dad." Wei Xuan looked back at the men, but saw his dad bypass him and move to the front.

"Yun Yue, did I arrive too late?" Wei Guohang looked at Yun Yue with a pleasing smile, having dropped everything to rush here the moment he received her message.

Never did he expect to encounter an injured Wei Xuan at the door.

Before he could show concern, he had walked right in.

Wei Xuan: "?! "

Was he seeing things?

His usually unsmiling father was actually smiling at Sister Yue?!

And such a flattering smile?!

Sister Yue couldn’t possibly be his illegitimate daughter outside, could she?!

"Just in time; if you came any earlier, they would still be flaunting their authority," Yun Yue put away her phone, her eyes gleaming ambiguously as she stared at Jin Binbai.

The latter’s eyes widened in a ghost-like expression, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"So what if you called for help? You’re still no match for us!" the aristocratic lady lifted her chin at Yun Yue, judging her plain clothes to be insignificant, daring to compete with them!

"Shut up!" Jin Binbai slapped her face, knocking her unconscious to the ground, glaring fiercely, "You’re going to get us killed today!"

The lady’s eyes widened in shock, the first time he had hit her and the first time he had lost such temper, she was too shocked to speak.

Wei Guohang stared at Jin Binbai, his aura speaking volumes, a stern look on his face, "Jin Binbai, quite the official authority you have there! Who did you say you were going to incarcerate?"

Jin Binbai, scared and sweaty, wiped the sweat from under his neck, "How did you get here?"

"How do you think?!" Wei Guohang stared at him; had he arrived any later, the entire hall would have been torn apart by her; these people had no idea whom they had provoked!

"Jin Binbai, they say to choose a wise wife, but the scandals of your wife and brother-in-law have spread far and wide, Lan City’s dragon is elusive, and there are too many rumors about him. Ten years ago, Lan City couldn’t even be considered a fourth-tier city, but under his leadership, it leaped directly to becoming a second-tier city.

Such achievements are astonishing both in Lan City and beyond.
