The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234: Chapter 233: Seek Justice for Me

An explanation? What was there to explain? The villagers had no interest in hearing excuses from a child trafficker.

They weren’t listening.

Lin Jiandong’s face was ashen.

He was supposed to be the village’s good old boy, yet he’d just wet his pants in front of everyone. How could he ever show his face in public again?

The thought made him wish he could just pass out.

But Leng Yuan was standing right there.

He had stopped hitting him out of sheer disgust.

But if Lin Jiandong dared to pass out, Leng Yuan would just kick him awake.

Lin Jiandong didn’t dare to move a muscle.

The farce wasn’t over yet. Chen JianShe soon arrived with the brigade leader and the village chief.

When the crowd saw the brigade leader and village chief, they immediately parted to make way.

On the way over, Chen JianShe had already explained the whole situation to Chen Beiguo.

’He couldn’t believe Lin Jiandong had been audacious enough to sell Xiao Yang to traffickers.’

’And this was supposed to be the village’s resident good guy!’

’The man was an animal!’

When he arrived with his men, he saw that the entrance to the Lin Family’s home was surrounded by a massive crowd, packed several layers deep.

All the villagers were there to watch the spectacle.

Despite the strong winds, heavy snow, and freezing cold.

But they were packed together for warmth, none of them bothering to brush the snowflakes from their clothes. They craned their necks, straining to see inside, afraid they might miss a single detail of the drama.

There wasn’t much entertainment in the village. Most days were just filled with idle gossip, and they were sick of hearing about the trivial, everyday squabbles of their neighbors.

But today’s events? This was a real shocker.

One of the gossiping aunties had even made a special trip home to grab a handful of sunflower seeds.

She usually saved them for a special occasion, and this spectacle was exactly that.

She even kindly shared them with a few other aunties she knew nearby.

Just as Chen Beiguo came over, he happened to walk right into the seed-sharing and had about twenty of them pressed into his hand.

Chen Beiguo...

His face darkened and he snapped,

"There’s a full-blown fight going on in there and none of you think to break it up? All you know how to do is gawk!"

With that, he shoved the sunflower seeds back into her hand.

The auntie didn’t seem to mind being scolded. Seeing the brigade leader return the seeds, she just beamed.

"Brigade Leader, you have to help me! Leng Yuan is trying to kill me!"

’I’m an honest man! How dare Leng Yuan treat me like this? It’s outrageous! Couldn’t they have just talked things out? Why did he have to get violent?’

Chen Beiguo shot Lin Jiandong a disgusted look and kicked him away.

"Alright, that’s enough. None of you are going anywhere. You’re all coming back to the brigade headquarters with me."

With a cold expression, Chen Beiguo ordered a few men to haul them to the brigade headquarters.

Seeing things were going south, Chen Shulan tried to sneak away, but Aunt Zhao grabbed her.

The Zhao family didn’t live far from the Lin Family, so Aunt Zhao had rushed over as soon as she heard the commotion.

’She’d seen the whole thing from start to finish, and what a show it had been.’

Caught, Chen Shulan gave a hollow laugh.

"Sister-in-law Zhao! I was just about to head over there myself!"

Aunt Zhao didn’t call her out on the lie, instead pointing behind her.

"The brigade headquarters is this way. I’m just letting you know, you were walking in the wrong direction."

It was the epitome of seeing the truth and not saying it aloud.

Everyone knew, but no one said a thing.

With no other choice, Chen Shulan resigned herself to her fate and followed the brigade cadres.
