In fact, before Yan Wangchuan had started beating Song Jingren, the school’s security guards had already called the police when they heard that something had happened. The school had a network with the police station, so when the police received the call, they rushed over.

At the time, the two of them had already reached a secluded place.

The surrounding students saw that there was no more excitement to watch, and the crowd was basically gone. Only the security guards were still watching not far away, afraid that something else would go wrong.

Song Jingren had been beaten up by Yan Wangchuan before, so he couldn’t help feeling fear when he looked at him. Yan Wangchuan was slightly taller than Song Jingren, and he was dressed all black. His expression was cold, and when he looked down at Song Jingren slightly, he was extremely intimidating.

Song Jingren watched as Yan Wangchuan took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and put a cigarette in his mouth…

Just as Song Jingren took out a lighter from his pocket, Yan Wangchuan had already lit it himself. He furrowed his eyebrows as he took a deep puff.

“Mr. Song, do you remember what I told you last time we met?” His words were as cold as ice, so cold they seemed to split the atmosphere.

It was bone-chilling.

The cigarette he was smoking wasn’t from a big brand, and these kinds of inferior cigarettes had a choking smell and a strong impact.

Just like the aura he exuded…

… domineering and biting.

“Last time…” When Song Jingren was beaten up before, he had stayed in the hospital for more than a week. When the police had questioned him, although he knew Yan Wangchuan’s identity, he didn’t dare to say it clearly. At the time, he was in a daze from being beaten up and couldn’t remember what Yan Wangchuan had said.

“When I introduced myself to you, there was a sentence I said in front of it.” Yan Wangchuan narrowed his eyes. The smoke shrouded his eyes, making them look obscure.

Some unknown storm seemed to be looming.

“In front…” Song Jingren furrowed his eyebrows, unable to recall what Yan Wangchuan had said no matter how hard he thought.

“I told you to come find me if you want anything.” Yan Wangchuan puffed out a mouthful of turbid smoke.

“Mr. Yan, this is our family affair. I don’t think it’s any of your business.” Song Jingren thought that since this was a school and there were people coming and going, Yan Wangchuan wouldn’t dare to do anything to him.

As a man, he knew very clearly what Yan Wangchuan was thinking.

He was interested in Qiao Aiyun.

He subconsciously compared himself to Yan Wangchuan. At this moment, he and Qiao Aiyun were like fire and water. At the thought that she still had such a suitor after the divorce, he felt very uncomfortable.

If her life didn’t go as she wished, others would say that it was irrational of her to get divorced. But if she found someone better than him, everyone would only say that he was blind.

Some people were just like that, afraid that others would lead a better life than them.

Yan Wangchuan turned his head and looked at him. “This was originally your family affair, and I indeed shouldn’t be meddling in it. But even if I were a passerby, as a man, I can’t stand you laying your hands on a woman and a child.”

“Don’t think that I don’t know about your relationship with Qiao Aiyun. Did the two of you never contact each other all these years? Otherwise, why would you suddenly appear so coincidentally that night?

“With you being so eager right now, I don’t think you’re as aloof as you seem.

“Everyone is hiding their own thoughts. My divorce with her also created an opportunity for you.” Song Jingren chuckled softly. “The two of us are similar. You don’t have much right to criticize me.

“If you don’t have anything else, I’ll take my leave first.”

Song Jingren reached out his hand to rub his face and didn’t notice Yan Wangchuan’s increasingly cold expression at all.

Yan Wangchuan threw the cigarette butt onto the ground and extinguished it with his foot.

He narrowed his eyes, and his gaze exuded a ruthless aura.

Song Jingren licked the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was over. “F*ck, she hit me so hard.”

But before he could finish speaking, his collar was suddenly grabbed. Before he could react, he was dragged back by a strong force and slammed against the wall.

Bang!

The wall was hard and cold, so Song Jingren’s back hurt from the collision. His collar was being grabbed, so it was strangling his neck, and it was difficult to breathe…

The person in front of him was extremely strong, and he was almost lifting his entire body up. His legs were half suspended in the air, and the more he struggled, the harder it was for him to breathe.

This suppression was overpowering, making him unable to move.

“You’re giving me a chance?” Yan Wangchuan sneered. “If possible, I’d rather not have such a chance for my entire life.

“I don’t want to force her to do anything. I respect her in everything. I watched on as she married you back then because I wish for her to be happy.

“But I didn’t do that for you to bully her like this.”

“You…” Song Jingren reached out his hands and tried to pry his hand away, but the difference in strength was too great.

“You did something wrong, yet you didn’t repent, and you dared to lay your hands on the child?”

Yan Wangchuan clenched his fist tightly…

… and threw it at Song Jingren’s face…

… one after another, without any mercy.

Song Jingren usually lived like a prince, so when he fell into Yan Wangchuan’s hands, he didn’t even have the energy to fight back. Just as he was about to raise his hands to fight back, he was already knocked down by a punch.

Yan Wangchuan just wished he could crush Song Jingren to pieces.

The security guards at the side were holding their batons and wanted to stop them, but they were deterred by Yan Wangchuan’s ruthlessness. They walked up to him, but they didn’t go forward to stop him.

By the time the police arrived, Song Jingren was already beaten to a pulp.

When Qiao Aiyun ran over, the police car had already taken him away…

“… That uncle dressed in black just now was so fierce. He beat that other uncle up so hard. I feel like he was going to knock the other uncle’s face crooked.”

“Although hitting someone is wrong, I still think that this man is so handsome.”

“He was so ruthless. F*ck, that was one-sided abuse.”

…

A few female students were still gathered nearby and whispering.

Qiao Aiyun was so furious that she was about to die. Is this what he meant by handling it properly?

***

She couldn’t catch up with the police car and could only run back to the car, preparing to drive to the police station too.

“Mom?” Song Fengwan saw that Qiao Aiyun’s face was covered in sweat. When she got in the car, she slipped and almost fell. Qiao Aiyun got into the driver’s seat and prepared to start the car.

She was anxious, and she struggled for a long time, but the car didn’t start.

“Mom, the key isn’t in.” Song Fengwan pointed at the car key on the gear shift handle.

Qiao Aiyun was so angry that she stepped hard on the accelerator. The more anxious she was, the more flustered she became.

“What’s wrong?” Song Fengwan clutched the key in her hand. Qiao Aiyun was not in the right condition to drive.

“Your Uncle Yan hit him. Now he’s been taken to the police station.

“Say, he’s already so old. How can he still be so impulsive?

“He still dared to tell me that he’d handle it properly? Is this how he handles it?”

Song Fengwan saw that she was exasperated and suddenly laughed.

“Young lady, how can you still laugh at a time like this?”

“Other than toward Uncle Yan, I’ve never seen you be so unreasonable and exasperated before.”

Qiao Aiyun was so angry that she wanted to slap Song Fengwan. Unreasonable?

“Let’s take a taxi there. It’s not suitable for you to drive now.” Song Fengwan held her hand. “Don’t worry. Uncle Yan knows his limits. He’ll be fine.”

“Limits?” Qiao Aiyun was furious. “I hope he has them.”

***

The two of them took a taxi to the police station. At the entrance of the police station, they saw Song Jingren’s secretary, Little Zhang, talking to a police officer and handing him a cigarette.

When he saw Qiao Aiyun, he was still a little nervous. He said softly, “Madam, Miss.”

Qiao Aiyun initially wanted Song Fengwan to go back and wait for the news, but she insisted on coming along. Qiao Aiyun was anxious to see the situation and could only let her be.

“Mom, go in first. I’ll make a call.”

“You’re on the phone so much.” Qiao Aiyun sighed and walked into the police station. She asked someone where the two who were just brought in were.

Song Jingren was a Yuncheng native, and his business was rooted here, so he had a lot of connections. Song Fengwan was worried that Yan Wangchuan would be at a disadvantage, and she wanted to help him but was powerless, so she could only seek help from Fu Chen.

Fu Chen was working in the study, and he furrowed his brows slightly when he saw her call. “Hello.”

“Third Brother.”

The sweet voice made Fu Chen’s heart tremble. She took the initiative to call me Third Brother.

“What’s the matter?”

“Do you know anyone in Yuncheng? Can you help me?”

“Tell me what happened first.” Fu Chen’s fingers tapped lightly on the laptop. Third Brother? Her voice did sound quite sweet.

Song Fengwan briefly explained the situation and naturally skipped over the fact that she got hit. “I’m worried that Uncle Yan will be at a disadvantage, so I want you to help him. He only did that because he wanted to stand up for me, so…”

“Okay, you don’t have to worry about this. He’ll be fine.”

If Yan Wangchuan didn’t even have the ability to protect himself, he wouldn’t be qualified to stand up for others at all.

Being just brave but without a tactic, anyone could do it.

…

With his assurance, Song Fengwan felt at ease and walked into the police station…

After asking around, she found where Yan Wangchuan was currently at, but she saw Qiao Aiyun standing at the door with her hands clenched tightly, looking angry. She walked over quietly…

“… So you admit that you beat Song Jingren up?”

“He deserved it.”

Song Fengwan’s mouth twitched. He’s already in the police station, but he’s still so self-righteous.

“Have you two met before? And you two became enemies?”

“This is the second time we’ve met. There’s far from any enmity between us.”

“You two have only met twice, and you’ve already beaten him up twice. Each time, it got worse than the last. This time, you almost broke his ribs. If there’s a next time, what else do you want to do?” The police officer gnashed his teeth in anger.

“Next time, I’ll make him go out horizontally.”

Song Fengwan nearly spat. Uncle Yan really is a ruthless person.
