"I'll forget about my share, we are all family here, all family!" Han Zhen, seeing Ge Dongxu calling her back, got so frightened that her legs began to tremble, and she hurriedly said.
Ge Dongxu, hearing this, couldn't help but look at Yuan Li with so confusion.
"She is Liu Lihe's sister-in-law!" Yuan Li saw the puzzled look on Ge Dongxu's face and whispered an explanation.
The explanation was not helping at all; not only did Ge Dongxu, who had already established a friendship with her, but even Cheng Yazhou and Wu Qianjin, who didn't have much affection for Yuan Li, were filled with fury upon hearing this.
Liu Lihe's family really was despicable! After swindling Yuan Li to this extent, his sister-in-law even led the charge in demanding wages from her!
"Slap! Slap!" Ge Dongxu, furious, stepped forward and grabbed Han Zhen by the collar, and fiercely slapped him on her face.
"Damn it! Other people might not know what exactly happened between Yuan Li and Liu Lihe, but don't you know, being his sister-in-law? Yet, you still co here demanding wages from her. Are you even human!" Ge Dongxu grew angrier as he spoke and couldn't help but slap her several more tis.
At this mont, the people around who heard Ge Dongxu speak started to sense that sothing was amiss and looked at Han Zhen with a hint of doubt.
Previously, Han Zhen and Liu Lihe had told them that Yuan Li had found another man and had disowned them. Not only did she divorce Liu Lihe, but she also made the bank press them hard for debts.
Whether Yuan Li had a man outside or not was sothing these workers did not know and couldn't judge. But the bank pressing for debts, causing the factory to halt production, was true. Moreover, in the eyes of the ordinary people, since Yuan Li was a leader at the bank, they naturally associated her with the bank's actions. They were unaware that Yuan Li did not own the bank and that she was only a Deputy Branch Manager with limited power. Moreover, since they had divorced, she naturally wouldn't continue to vouch for delays in paynt or similar issues on behalf of Liu Lihe.
At this point, Han Zhen was completely overwheld by Ge Dongxu's dominance and barely dared to respond, while Yuan Li, seeing Ge Dongxu speak and vent for her, couldn't help but have her eyes well up with tears.
"Stay right there, don't move. If you dare take one step, I'll break your leg; don't think I can't do it!" Ge Dongxu released Han Zhen's collar and said coldly.
"I won't leave, I won't leave." Han Zhen, covering her face, hurriedly said, terrified that Ge Dongxu might slap her again.
Seeing that Han Zhen didn't move, Ge Dongxu then looked toward the factory office and shouted, "Liu Lihe, Yang Hong, have you seen enough? If you have, co out and clarify things in front of everyone."
Liu Lihe and Yang Hong had, of course, seen everything clearly outside. Seeing Ge Dongxu, this "fierce god," shouting at them, Yang Hong imdiately turned pale, saying, "What do we do now? He's not going to hit too, is he?"
"What's there to be afraid of? This is Wangzhou Township, not the county town! Moreover, I already called my classmate, and he'll be here soon," Liu Lihe said darkly and with forceful pretense.
Liu Lihe's classmate was a police officer at the Wangzhou Township police station, and also his childhood playmate. Liu Lihe, when squandering the money made from this factory, often treated him to a good ti.
Although the inco of rural police officers isn't comparable to their urban counterparts, due to being far from the emperor's reach and dealing with powerless common people, rural police have more prestige than city police and are less restrained in their actions. For this reason, rural police hold a significant status in the eyes of the local community.
With Liu Lihe's assurance, Yang Hong felt sowhat relieved and asked, "Should we go out now?"
"Go out, of course, we go out. If we don't, wouldn't it appear that we are afraid of them, that we have sothing to hide?" Liu Lihe said as he led the way out of the office.
As Liu Lihe approached, Ge Dongxu finally had a clear view of his face and thought to himself, truly a case of a splendid exterior hiding a rotten interior. Who would have thought that such a handso and tall man could be so shaless and despicable. He guessed Sister Li must have been deceived by his looks in the past.
"Yuan Li, didn't you say you were going to bring soone to acquire our factory? What is this supposed to an?" After approaching, Liu Lihe pointed at his sister-in-law and preemptively accused her. Find more to read at empire
"I should be asking you the sa. Isn't the ss you dumped on enough? Now you even have your sister-in-law demanding wages from ?" When Yuan Li saw Liu Lihe and Yang Hong co out and accuse her first, she couldn't help but beco emotional, her voice sharp with accusation.
"What do you an by 'ss'? It wasn't just who managed the factory, you were also involved. Now that we're divorced, you just ignore it and throw the whole burden of debt on , how can you do that?" Liu Lihe retorted.
"You, you… bullshit! All the money we made over the years has been squandered by you and Yang Hong, and I didn't get a penny! And now that you're insolvent, I was the guarantor initially, and I still have to cover for you!" Yuan Li trembling all over from Liu Lihe's questioning, burst out with a curse.
"You don't have to cover for ! I'm not forcing you!" Liu Lihe shalessly responded.
"You..." Yuan Li was so angry she was lost for words.
Ge Dongxu gently patted Yuan Li's shoulder and said, "Sister Li, don't be angry, there's no point in talking to soone like him!"
After speaking, Ge Dongxu charged forward and fiercely grabbed Liu Lihe's arm, giving it a harsh pull.
"Snap!" Liu Lihe's arm was imdiately dislocated, hanging loosely as he cried out in pain.
Ge Dongxu, however, paid no heed to him and grabbed the other hand, once again giving it a vicious pull to dislocate it.
Everyone witnessing this scene broke out in a cold sweat, including Cheng Yazhou and others.
They had never expected that once Ge Dongxu beca ruthless, he could be so harsh! They used to think he was a good, obedient student!
"Alright, stop yelling. Do you believe if you keep on, I'll break both of your legs too?" Ge Dongxu coldly warned Liu Lihe.
Although in excruciating pain, Liu Lihe had finally realized how fierce Ge Dongxu was and dared not make another sound. Inwardly, he cursed that police officer classmate of his for not arriving yet.
Seeing fear in Liu Lihe's eyes, Ge Dongxu slowly took his arm, "snap, snap," he reset the dislocated joints.
Ge Dongxu, already past sixteen though not yet eighteen, wasn't legally an adult, but causing a disability would still hold him criminally responsible, albeit possibly with a lighter sentence. Hence, teaching Liu Lihe a lesson was enough; there was no need to actually break his arms.
"I suggest you answer whatever I ask you, otherwise next ti I won't fix them back, and your legs might be next," Ge Dongxu warned as he dusted off his hands.
Watching Ge Dongxu's casual deanor, people around felt their own elbows ache in sympathy.
"Fine, you're ruthless! It was who had my sister-in-law demand wages from Yuan Li…" Liu Lihe, looking at Ge Dongxu's seemingly harmless face, was thoroughly intimidated and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
There's no choice, a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him!
"What's going on? What's going on? Who was hitting people in the factory just now? Is there no law anymore?" Before Liu Lihe could finish, a fierce shout ca from the entrance of the factory.
