Was Wu Xia just pretending to be crazy and foolish before? So she could relax everyone’s guard and get close to kill Shuzhen for revenge?! After thinking it over, that seems to be the only way to explain everything smoothly. But, damn it, from beginning to end, she was just digging her own grave! Although Shuzhen was resolute from the start, not even a hint of trying to mediate peace, she didn’t hesitate. She slapped Wu Xia not just once, beating up her sister-in-law was something so fierce it was renowned for miles around. Things happen for a reason, and Wu Xia, with her own issues left untreated, being not honest about them, even spent money on a deceitful doctor to blame her man... Just that alone, as soon as it’s revealed, as the sister-in-law, it’s natural to be enraged! After all, the Liu family now has only three siblings looking after each other; their relationship is closer than usual! And before the divorce, Wu Xia, double-crossing, helped out the vixen outside to harm her own sister-in-law. Though it wasn’t widely spread, it still leaked quite a bit of information. New grudges and old hatreds alike, Shuzhen didn’t even consider grabbing a knife to kill Wu Xia, which showed some restraint. Why would Wu Xia, instead, come to the Lian family wielding a knife to commit violence? This is really, when the woods are large, you find all kinds of birds. The victims don’t hold grudges against her, yet she, the perpetrator, is relentless! Before Shuzhen and her husband could speak out, the villagers who had rushed to save them immediately labeled Wu Xia as a violent offender attempting murder. Bound with a rope, she was directly taken, with Liu Shouyi leading the charge, to Director Jiang in the town. As for why not the police station? Haha, ordinary folks like us can’t understand those twists and turns, can’t figure out those differences. But they listened to the old captain who often muttered about this place, naturally assuming that it could handle everything. If it’s wrong, we might as well transfer the person to the police station? It’s because of this woman and Lin Yuanzhi that his efforts were ruined, instead of succeeding. The harm done to him fits the epitome of a mastermind villain! A rare opportunity can’t be found easily! Now with the troublemaker right at hand, can he watch them slip away? Seeing Shouren trying to snatch the opportunity back from him, Director Jiang quickly waved him off: "No need, no need, whether us or the police station, aren’t we all places for serving the people? Why bother with a clear boundary! It’s difficult for the villagers to make the trip, and since they are here at my door, we might as well keep her. Several comrades can follow me to take a statement, let’s dive into the details." "It’s not good, isn’t this causing more trouble for Director Jiang! Still, let a couple of us folk handle it ourselves, let’s not burden Director Jiang!" Liu Shouyi said with a fawning smile, a complete portrayal of exhausting us poor villagers without causing you any inconvenience, simply flattering to the point of being unbearable. Director Jiang was puzzled: Was this still the bold and decisive Liu family’s second son? Could he have been swapped? With his mind filled with revengeful thoughts, the stark contrast of Liu Shouyi didn’t register, not taking it to heart. Who knows what he might have whispered into the chief’s ear, but the leader’s face still showed disapproval, although barely agreeing to his suggestion. Liu Shouyi reluctantly had to let it go and record the statement. When leaving, he constantly glanced back and forth between the surname Jiang and Wu Xia, clearly worried about favoritism and unjust dealings. Director Jiang was furious, almost wanting to grab him by the collar to explain thoroughly he had no relation with that Wu Xia. At most, at most, he wanted to use this chance to make a great achievement, inadvertently being fooled by her and Lin Yuanzhi, the grandson! After leaving the office of Director Jiang, Liu Shouyi immediately put away the fawning look and hurried back home. Such a commotion today, his little sister must have been terrified, surely needing comfort from him as her second brother. His little sister had never been brave since childhood; on rainy days, she wouldn’t even dare stay alone in the house when thunder rolled. Now with knives involved, wouldn’t she be petrified? When he received the news earlier, even he, a grown man, had his legs go weak! Shuzhen wasn’t worried at all right now! Wu Xia and such, long forgotten, all her attention was focused on her husband! Watching as he helped her clean up the mess bit by bit, even willing to choke Wu Xia’s neck himself to find out why she fainted and lost her voice. Meticulously considering all the tiny details for her, transforming her from a murderer into a victim of self-defense. Completely willing to be suspected himself rather than let her suffer any gossip, he was protecting her to a great extent. To have such a man care and protect her so wholeheartedly, it was simply the one bright spot in her bleak past life. But now, her long-hidden secret suddenly got exposed, and her ruthless side was fully revealed to her husband. Shuzhen felt her heart couldn’t help but race. Ever since the villagers rushed in, her brother led the charge and tied up Wu Xia to report it. As the ’victim,’ she, along with Lianshan, was left behind for being overly frightened, she started thinking about how best to lay out her confession. But before she could arrange her words, she was suddenly caught in an embrace. Then Shuzhen heard her husband ask, half-nervously and half-curiously: "Actually, are you a fairy, darling? How else could you have such powerful spells! Did I do you a favor in a previous life, and you came to repay me in this life? No, no, don’t tell me; if I learn your true identity, and you return to the heavens without being my wife, where will I cry!" Are you serious? Pal! Shuzhen was stunned, never expecting that before she started fabricating, her husband had given such a fantasy explanation himself. If not for seeing his hand shaking, and his face changed color, believing he guessed right, leading to a saga of a celestial romance. Holding her tightly, leaving her a bit breathless. Shuzhen really wanted to go along with it and accept the fairy tale. Being a fairy meant you should know some spells, which perfectly explained her powers. Even the future prospects could be thrown into mystical predictions, making things far simpler. But if such simplicity was built on her husband’s constant worries and fears, how could Shuzhen bear it?
