Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 583: Chapter 582, Blind

Zhou Yi looked at Xu Wendong, a meaningful smile flashing in his eyes, ”What do you mean? Want to play tough with me?”

Xu Wendong calmly put down his chopsticks, then took out his phone and sent a message in the Xu Family Village’s group chat, afterwards looking at Zhou Yi, ”So what if we play tough?”

Zhou Yi, enraged and embarrassed, said, ”No one has ever dared to take advantage of me since I was a kid. If that’s what you’re thinking, you better consider the consequences!”

Xu Lu, her face icy, said, ”Zhou Yi, I advise you to get out of my house right now, or I’ll call the police!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi burst into laughter, ”Call the police? Go ahead, I’d like to see if they’ll handle this matter.”

Xu Lu’s expression stiffened, a deep feeling of helplessness overcoming her.

She knew the Zhou family had a good relationship with the local police chief, so even if she called them, they’d definitely side with Zhou Yi.

”Why involve the police in personal matters of the Xu Family Village?”

Accompanied by a resounding voice.

A man in his forties, nearly two meters tall, with a burly build dressed in a military coat, arrived at Xu Lu’s home with a large group of able-bodied men from the Xu Family Village.

Seeing the aggressive arrival of the Xu Family Village youth, Zhou Yi and his lackeys panicked at once.

Although Xu Family Village was poor on the town’s scale, its fierce and exceptionally united spirit was something people dreaded.

”Er Gou, this is none of your business, go back!” Xu Qingtao hadn’t expected his clansmen to show up and immediately rebuked them.

He was afraid the situation would spiral out of control.

The middle-aged man named Er Gou grinned and said, ”Uncle, it was Little Uncle who asked us to come. I’m afraid we can’t listen to you.”

In the village, Xu Qingtao was very senior, almost a grandfatherly figure.

Although Xu Wendong was young, apart from the Xu Qingtao brothers, he was considered a senior in front of other clansmen.

Even some villagers in their forties or fifties had to address him as Little Uncle.

Xu Wendong said, ”Er Gou, kindly show these people out.”

”Alright!” Er Gou displayed a playful smile.

Zhou Yi, with a cold gaze, said, ”I’m telling you, don’t act rashly. My dad is Zhou Changjiang, and if you dare lay a finger on me, you’ll regret it!”

Slap!

Er Gou landed a hearty slap on his face, angrily retorting, ”I just did. What can you do about it?”

Zhou Yi was slapped dizzy, obviously not expecting the other party to actually make a move.

Just then.

A villager from Xu Family Village shouted in fury, ”Damn it, you dare hit people? Everyone, these outsiders are bullying us too much, we must teach them a lesson!”

Zhou Yi’s lackeys were all bewildered.

Who hit someone?

Don’t make baseless accusations, okay?

Before everyone could react, the villagers of Xu Family Village rushed at them like a tide, swallowing them entirely.

Under the cover of night.

Heart-rending screams echoed incessantly.

After the beating, the villagers of Xu Family Village dumped Zhou Yi and others onto the street.

Seeing them with dirty faces, bruised and battered, Xu Wendong felt pity, ”It’s New Year’s, what’s that mess all over you? Let’s rinse them off a bit!”

Upon hearing this, the villagers all expressed their respect for Xu Wendong.

Even Xu Lu quietly gave him a thumbs-up as if praising him.

Consequently, many villagers competed to fetch water.

Then.

Poured a bucket of icy well water on each of them.

Freezing everyone until their faces turned pale, lips turning blue, shivering.

After all, the outdoor temperature now was as low as minus fifteen degrees.

”What’s going on here?” Accompanied by a voice full of authority, a middle-aged man in his fifties walked over clad in a coat, holding a flashlight.

Seeing Xu Qinghua, Zhou Yi clutched onto his last hope, loudly declaring, ”Village Chief Xu, you must manage your villagers, they’re lawless, intentionally harming people. If you don’t give me a satisfactory answer, I’ll call the police and have them all arrested.”

Although he knew Xu Qinghua was Xu Lu’s second uncle, he was still the village chief of Xu Family Village. He didn’t believe Xu Qinghua would cover for his own clansmen.

No!

To be precise, he didn’t believe Xu Qinghua dared to cover for his clansmen.

Xu Qinghua lit a cigarette, asking calmly, ”What do you mean by a satisfactory answer?”

Zhou Yi, trembling slightly, said, ”Have Xu Lu return the 128,000 yuan bride price from our engagement. Also, your villagers hurt me and my brothers, they must kneel in front of me to repent and pour a bucket of well water on themselves.”

Xu Qinghua looked at the clansmen, asking, ”Who hit someone?”

Without exception.

Everyone shook their heads frantically, indicating they hadn’t done it.

Some even suggested Zhou Yi and the others accidentally fell, overturning buckets, leading to their disheveled state.

Zhou Yi erupted with anger, ”Nonsense, it’s clear you beat us up, are you now trying to deny it?”

Xu Qinghua sighed helplessly, ”Zhou Yi, you claim my clansmen attacked, but they haven’t admitted to it!”

”Are you asking me to twist facts and place a false charge on my clansmen?”

Zhou Yi fumed, his face turning green with anger. His expression turned grim as he said through gritted teeth, ”Village Chief Xu, you’re aware of the cooperation between my family and Si Hai Group, right?”

”I can responsibly tell you, the first project between my Zhou family and Si Hai Group is to rebuild Xu Family Village and transform it into a paradise.”

”If you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation today, then this project is finished, completely done.”

Upon hearing this.

Many villagers of Xu Family Village gasped audibly.

Even though they heard of the partnership between the Si Hai Group and the Zhou family, they never expected it involved rebuilding Xu Family Village.

If this could materialize.

It would undoubtedly be a tremendous benefit for the villagers of Xu Family Village!

For a moment.

Everyone felt an inexplicable pressure; after all, they had just beaten up Zhou Yi and the others. If the other side truly stopped Si Hai Group from investing in rebuilding Xu Family Village, they would become the village’s wrongdoers.

Xu Qinghua frowned, looking curiously at Xu Wendong, ”Wendong, is Si Hai Group truly planning to invest in Xu Family Village?”

Xu Wendong appeared awkward.

Evidently, Second Uncle knew he was the real owner of Si Hai Group; otherwise, he wouldn’t ask this way.

Yes, this very likely came from what his cousin mentioned.

As he was about to speak, Zhou Yi’s disdainful voice resounded, ”Village Chief Xu, the investment in Xu Family Village by Si Hai Group is a major event, how on earth could a nobody like him know of such a classified matter?”

”Nobody?” Xu Qinghua chuckled, shaking his head, ”Zhou Yi, you’re truly shortsighted. This ’nobody’ you speak of is the actual big boss behind Si Hai Group!”
