Chapter 1281: Chapter 1281: Don’t Judge by Appearance 1

The man who was beaten was called Wang Chengjun, the youngest cousin of Wang Chenglong, and a rare rascal in the Wanglou Brigade.

He had no involvement with good people, yet he wasn’t rotten to the core either; he was just fond of drinking and lechery, and enjoyed mingling with married women.

It was said that he had been like this since childhood, immune to beatings and scoldings alike.

Wang Chengjun had a wife and child, but he was caught in an affair with a young widow whose husband had just died two years prior. He was nearly beaten to death by his whole family, and spent more than half a year bedridden with broken legs and arms before he could walk again, narrowly escaping being sent to the commune for re-education through labor.

After he recovered, Wang Chengjun behaved himself for two years, not that he had much choice, since everyone was watching him.

The one doing the beating was a young woman, and moreover, it was Zhou Zhou, who often followed Zheng Huihui in and out of the Lu Family. Right now, the sole of her shoe, which had stepped in cow dung, was pressing on Wang Chengjun’s face, making him retch continuously.

How could Zhou Zhou, who was gentle and tearful at the drop of a hat, have pinned down the tall and robust Wang Chengjun?

Guan Cheng blinked hard, not believing his eyes!

The one being beaten was Wang Chengjun, and the one doing the beating was Zhou Zhou, looking very imposing.

Guan Cheng had also trained with Lu Jiang, and the grass on the ground was thick. When he lightened his footsteps, it was difficult for anyone to notice him approaching. Zhou Zhou, who had been caught off guard by his sudden appearance, awkwardly stared at him for a moment. Her wide eyes, like those of a startled deer, hurriedly withdrew her foot, placed her hands across her chest, and backed away several steps, her tears rolling down as she transformed into a fragile and pitiful young girl.

If it hadn’t been for the fact that she ground her foot into Wang Chengjun a bit too hard when she withdrew it, Guan Cheng might have believed her innocence.

"I... I... He followed me into the woods, and he wanted to... to touch me. I... I was so scared that I... I just accidentally pushed him over!"

Zhou Zhou cried pitifully, not forgetting to run behind Guan Cheng as she took refuge from Wang Chengjun, clutching at the back of Guan Cheng’s jacket.

Guan Cheng could feel her trembling without even turning around.

"Guan Cheng Comrade, please save me, save me quickly!" Zhou Zhou’s small hand shook violently, showing just how frightened she was.

However, Guan Cheng was not fooled by her fragile and pitiful exterior.

Even though it was dark and they were in the forest where the flashlight didn’t reveal much, being a doctor, he knew the human body well. He could tell at a glance that Wang Chengjun had been severely beaten. There were no marks on his face, but the fact that he couldn’t get up meant he had sustained internal injuries.

Wang Chengjun struggled for a long time to get up, pulled up his garment to wipe the cow dung off his face, retched, and nearly vomited.

"Guan Cheng, take a look why can’t I get up!" As he wiped his face, his garment accidentally brushed against his mouth, and Wang Chengjun retched again, finally vomiting out his dinner. After holding it in for so long, he couldn’t hold back any longer, wasting his evening meal.

Guan Cheng held back his laughter, and with a cold face, said, "Wang Chengjun, are you hoping to spend another half a year in bed?"

After vomiting, Wang Chengjun rolled and crawled to the side, about two steps away from the filth he had expelled, and lay down sprawling on the ground. This movement contorted his face with pain as he said, "Well, aren’t I lying down now?"

"What exactly did you do?" Guan Cheng demanded, "If anything happens to the educated youth in our brigade, we all cannot shirk responsibility!"

"I’m the one lying down here, do you think I’m the one who caused trouble?" Wang Chengjun turned and spat, which landed on a blade of grass nearby. The grass blade trembled, and the spit slid down like silk, "This girl hits really hard. I was in the woods catching cicadas, and she came over and started beating me out of nowhere, beating me so badly that I won’t be able to get up for at least ten days to half a month."
