Chapter 178: A Real Man

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The troublemakers were intimidated by Big Yellow and swiftly scattered away. The crowd realized the spectacle was over and dispersed as well.

Tian Hai’s father and his group dashed away, finally stopping far enough to catch their breath after making sure the fierce Tibetan Mastiff didn’t chase after them.

Exhausted and humiliated, they had neither the money nor their dignity.

They’d hoped for Su Jing’s aid, only for her to switch sides. The sight of Tian Hai’s father irritated them further.

A young man stepped forward and kicked Tian Hai’s father into the mud. Despite his attempts, Tian Hai’s father couldn’t get up. He ended up lying there in disgrace.

“You promised profits, and we’re left with bruises. If you don’t compensate for our injuries today, I’ll break your legs too!” The young man’s threat echoed, and the others rallied behind him.

“Give us what we came for, or face the consequences!”

The troublemakers, led by Tian Hails father and his companions, were intimidated by the dogs and swiftly scattered away. The crowd realized the spectacle was over and dispersed as well.

“Give us what we came for, or face the consequences!”

“Why don’t you head back and bring the money? Or we’ll make sure you can’t walk!”

Tian Hail s father, wallowing in the mud, pointed at the young man with teary eyes, pleading, “How can you do this? I’m your uncle!”

The group surrounding Tian Hail s father mainly consisted of Tian Hails regular companions, so their lack of moral integrity was somewhat expected.

Yet, the surprising blow came from his own nephew, striking him with an unexpected intensity. In that moment, Tian Hai’s father couldn’t help but feel a wave of ill fortune crashing upon him.

The young man, in a display of vehement anger, spat out his words sharply, “Damn your uncle. Do you think an old thug like you deserves respect? Go back and fetch my money! ”

“No! It’s all because of those two old fools from Chu Xi’s family. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here!” Determined, he marched back, intending to confront them.

Meanwhile, Li Zhu overheard Tian Hai’s father’s words from a distance as he followed.

It struck him as odd; Su Shen had supposedly resolved the issue, so why were the Tians still causing trouble?

So it was those two old people instigating from behind the scenes.

Li Zhu turned back to the Su family, pondering the situation. Shortly after, a police car arrived, and officers apprehended Tian Hail s father and his companions.

“You and Tian Hai are suspected of engaging in hooliganism. Please cooperate and come with us for questioning!”

In those times, the penalties for such criminal acts were severe. Should one be found guilty of orchestrating hooliganism, they could face more than seven years of imprisonment.

Faced with the police, the culprits lacked the audacity to act insolently; their only solace was to hope that Su Shen wouldn’t press charges against them.

After Tian Hai’s father and his associates departed, Su Jing promptly took action. She alerted the authorities and left for the city in a police vehicle.

Gu Zi couldn’t comprehend why Su Jing hadn’t completely severed ties with Tian Hai yet, but she refrained from commenting on it.

In the living room, Li Hua diligently applied medicine to Lin Cheng’s wounds, while Lin Hun tended to his own injuries. Others might not understand why Li Hua held such admiration for Lin Cheng, but she alone knew that her man possessed true courage and integrity.

Observing the scene before her, Gu Zi felt a deep sense of contentment. Being safeguarded and supported by her family was an incredibly gratifying feeling.

“Brother Lin, I see you as my true elder brother now and forever,” said Lin Hun.

Initially, he had aimed to secure a position in the breeding farm through Lin Cheng and serve under Su Shen. However, he had come to realize that the man he once belittled as a servant to his sister and wife was, in fact, a resolute and honorable individual.

After Lin Cheng, Lin Hun, and Li Hua finished tending to their injuries, they busied themselves cleaning up the courtyard.

Meanwhile, Gu Zi set the table with the prepared dishes and called everyone to gather for the meal.

In the midst of the meal, Li Zhu returned and shared what he had witnessed earlier.

Gu Zi suddenly recalled glimpsing Chu Xi’s father-in-law lurking around when the Tian family had arrived. It all made sense now.

Li Zhu said, “I just came in and saw those two old people hiding beside the house. Should I go and get them?”

Gu Zi shook his head. “Ignore them for now. You should stay for dinner.”

Gu Zi, considering the potential consequences, advised against it. She believed it was wiser to let them be for now rather than risk any further complications.

She had a better idea. She didn’t want to waste time looking for them.

Li Zhu looked at the delicious spread on the table and couldn’t move his legs.

After dinner, Lin Cheng, Li Zhu and Lin Hun returned to Little Lin Village.

When Su Shen and Jin Long received the urgent news and hurried back home, Gu Zi was just about to head upstairs.

Earlier that day, Jin Long and Gu Zi had traveled a considerable distance to the water source. The urgency of the situation prompted Su Shen to speed his return.

Despite taking motion sickness medicine, Jin Long still felt nauseous and vomited several times during the journey. Upon arriving and seeing that everything was resolved without incident, Jin Long couldn’t help but feel his earlier discomfort had been for naught.
