The people who arrived were none other than Leng Mochen and his group. Heizi drove one car, while Leng Mochen drove another. They didn’t dare let Long Wu drive, fearing sothing might happen.
At the entrance of the village, they coincidentally encountered the village chief, who led them directly to assist with catching the culprits.
Heizi and the village chief got out of the car and imdiately pulled out their police badges. "We’re currently investigating a missing persons case. Where is that woman?"
"She’s in the yard! Officer, it wasn’t us, we were forced to do it! It was that Mrs. Yang Sr.! She knelt before and begged until I gave in!"
Long Wu ignored the excuses and kept walking straight toward the yard. When that old woman saw the police cars arrive, she was frightened and began pacing back and forth, trying to hide Su ng.
The mont Su ng saw Long Wu, tears rolled down her face. Just seeing her like that made Long Wu’s heart ache.
"ng ng, it’s okay now! Don’t be scared!" He spoke as he tore the dirty cloth from her mouth and threw it to the ground. Then, he walked behind her to untie the ropes. Within monts, she was free, and he held her tightly in his arms.
Su ng sobbed uncontrollably. The reason she hadn’t cried earlier was that she believed—deep down, without a doubt—that Long Wu would co looking for her once he realized she was missing. She didn’t know why, but her heart was just that certain.
Seeing the two of them embracing so openly in her presence, Mrs. Yang fud with anger. She glanced around, grabbed a shovel, and made a move to hit Long Wu with it.
She cursed viciously as she swung, "I’ll beat these shaless dogs to death! How dare you act like this in front of ? Who knows what kind of filthy things you’ve been up to behind my back!"
Leng Mochen walked in at just the right mont. In a few swift strides, he kicked Mrs. Yang to the ground.
Mrs. Yang took the opportunity to sit on the ground, slapping her thighs theatrically and wailing, "You’re bullying ! Sobody co look at this! Here’s this shaless slut, hugging up to this wild man right in front of ! Oh, my poor son! Where are you? Co back and take a look at this! Old man, where the hell are you? Look at how people are bullying us right at our doorstep! I can’t take it anymore..."
By now, a large gathering of villagers had already ford at the gate, and with this scene, even more people crowded around, effectively sealing off the area.
The crowd buzzed with mixed comnts—so speculated that these were Su ng’s family mbers coming to settle the score with the Yang family, while others, noticing the presence of police, whispered that Mrs. Yang Sr. must have done sothing terrible to warrant this.
At this mont, Long Wu released Su ng and clenched his fists. This shaless old woman—if she wasn’t taught a harsh lesson, she’d never realize what kind of trouble she was courting.
Without a word, he charged toward Mrs. Yang and unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks. People often say a man shouldn’t hit a woman, but it depends on whether the woman deserves it or not.
At first, Mrs. Yang kept cursing indecently, shouting, "A wild man is hitting ! Officer, save !"
But it didn’t take long before her tone changed. She started begging for rcy, wailing, "Stop! Help! Please!" Her front teeth were knocked out, leaving her words slurred and whistle-like.
Heizi stayed where he was, not bothering to intervene. He fully supported Long Wu beating her senseless—not just to give the crowd satisfaction but, more importantly, to give Su ng so sense of justice.
From Mrs. Yang’s actions, even without Su ng saying anything, one could guess the tornt she had endured. With a domineering, unreasonable old woman like her, there was no way Su ng had been treated kindly.
Although the village chief didn’t step in, seeing this group’s extraordinary deanor, he wisely chose not to ddle. Besides, Mrs. Yang Sr. had always been a malicious presence in the village, bullying others at will and earning almost universal dislike. Not a single soul stepped up for her, and in fact, many in the crowd clapped in support, having long harbored resentnt for her tyranny.
Su ng watched the scene impassively, a deep sense of relief coursing through her. Thinking back to those tornting years under this old woman’s control, and comparing it to her life now, she could hardly believe the difference. Sotis, she didn’t even dare recall those days.
But in the dead of night, she often woke up crying from nightmares filled with those dark mories. Deep in her heart, she always carried the fear that soday she might be forced back into that existence.
It was her recurring nightmare...
By the end of it all, Long Wu didn’t hold back. Mrs. Yang wasn’t just half-dead from the beating but also faced jail ti. The three n involved deeply regretted their actions and found themselves locked behind bars as well.
As for how long they’d spend inside—given that arrangents had been made for them to "receive proper care" on the inside—it wasn’t going to be pleasant. Even ten days in there would be unbearable for them...
anwhile, Mrs. Su seed to have undergone a complete transformation lately. Her concern for Su ng had grown intense, and she no longer nagged about her past usual topics—like when Su ng and Long Wu would officially get together or when they’d settle their marriage.
In private, she confided in Li Si, saying, "As long as ng ng can live a good life, I don’t want anything else. I just want her to be healthy and safe."
