Transmigration: Flirted with My Childhood Sweetheart

Chapter 484: Chapter 483 I Feel Like It’s Just the Beginning

With a single sentence, Lin Nianhe managed to extinguish the raging temper of Wen Lan and Sie Yufei.

Wang Damin, however, stepped forward: "I don’t have to join the army!"

"What else do you want to do if not join the army?" Lin Nianhe gently smacked his forehead, "Besides, fists won’t solve the problem. She beats us up, we beat her up, she recovers and hits us again... Does that serve any purpose other than getting our own people hurt?"

"This..."

Wang Damin’s face turned a bright red, his hands clenching into fists at his sides, knuckles going white, trembling slightly.

He had long wanted to beat up that woman, but with Sister Shumei constantly watching him, not allowing him to leave the hospital room, he could only think about it.

"Alright, there are many ways to solve a problem," Lin Nianhe said with a smile, "It’s the least wise to let the pursuit of punishing others affect your own future."

Biting his lip, Wang Damin looked up at Lin Nianhe and asked, "Sister Lin, what should we do then?"

"Um," Lin Nianhe turned to look at Wang Shumei, "Let’s start by posting a big-character poster outside their workplace."

Wang Damin didn’t expect Lin Nianhe to only suggest this and laughed dryly, shaking his head as if to say Lin Nianhe was being naive: "Sister Lin, that woman’s brother is the workshop director at the food factory. You can’t win against her there!"

"Oh, is that so? I don’t think so."

Wang Shumei looked at the upward curve of Lin Nianhe’s lips and nodded: "I get it. It might not be useful, but we have to do it."

Lin Nianhe gave her a thumbs-up.

Sun Guanghui stepped forward: "You all take a rest, I’ll go buy some white paper."

"I’ll go with you." Sie Yufei also stood up, "Xiao He, give me the recommendation letter, I’ll pass by the guest house and book a few rooms."

"Okay."

Wang Damin looked around and sighed: "Then I’ll lead the way for you."

"Damin..."

"Sister, don’t worry, I won’t go starting a fight." Wang Damin forcibly cracked a smile.

"Okay then, hurry back."

Not long after the three of them went out, they ran back in a frantic sprint.

Wang Damin’s eyes gleamed, more jubilant than during the New Year: "Sister! I just saw that woman downstairs! She fell into a sewer!"

Wang Shumei was utterly baffled: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Really!" Wang Damin swallowed, his excitement written all over his strands of hair, "I asked a nurse, both her legs are broken, and something slashed her shoulder with a cleaver!"

Sie Yufei followed in, adding: "They said she was lying in the sewer for a long time before a passerby found her. By the time she was pulled out, she had long passed out."

Sun Guanghui nodded: "Yeah, and they said her face was chewed up by rats, nearly severing her neck."

Hearing this, all four girls retched in unison.

Wang Xiaoxiao, frail and dizzy, threw up on the spot.

Wen Lan quickly provided a spittoon for her. She felt nauseated too but was more elated: "Ha, serves her right!"

Observing from the side, Wang Shumei was scrutinizing Lin Nianhe with her eyes: ’Did you do it?’

Lin Nianhe: ’Don’t talk nonsense, I’m a kind-hearted good person.’

Wang Shumei: ’...’

If Lin Nianhe’s gaze wasn’t so innocent, Wang Shumei might have actually believed her.

Their little exchange of glances went unnoticed by everyone else. Wang Damin was so happy his eyes reddened, clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, he said: "Deserved! Well deserved!"

He ran to Wang Xiaoxiao’s side, giving her water to drink, and choked up, saying: "Xiaoxiao, your revenge is finally served!"

"Huh?" Lin Nianhe tilted her head, "Is that it?"

"What else?"

"Why do I feel like it’s just the beginning?"

...

Disasters can leave marks for a thousand years.

Chen Daya was rescued.

The first sentence she uttered when she opened her eyes was: "Call the Public Security! Someone’s harming me! Someone’s out to get me!"

The comrades in Public Security were very responsible, they immediately sent someone over to ask about the situation after filing a report.

"A man, about the same height as me, with a really dark face, like a lump of coal, short hair, wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket."

Chen Daya was exceptionally vengeful, not even the pain could make her forget the facial features of her nemesis.

As the Public Security comrade was recording, he asked: "Have you seen him before?"

"No."

"Then have you offended anyone recently?"

Chen Daya blurted out: "Wang Shumei! Definitely that little bitch who got someone to do this!"

"What sort of grudge do you have?"

"..."

Chen Daya fell silent for a moment, then began indiscriminately slinging mud without any burden, sometimes calling out the difficulty of being a stepmother, other times complaining about the little bastard not listening... In conclusion, it was all Sister Shumei’s fault.

All the time, Mr. Wang was just sitting on a small bench to the side, head buried like a quail without uttering a word.

The more the Public Security comrade listened to Chen Daya’s words, the more he felt that something was off.

There were too many contradictions in her words, for example, if those sisters were indeed so difficult to deal with, how could they possibly have moved to stay with their cousin before New Year’s? Moreover, if they had moved out, how could they possibly stir up any conflict?

The Public Security comrade had his doubts about this matter, after recording Chen Daya’s statement, he went to visit the Wang Family’s neighborhood for an investigation.

After the investigation...

If it weren’t for professional constraints, the Public Security comrade would have loved to point at Chen Daya’s nose and tell her she had it coming.

However, sympathy for the three sisters aside, the investigation still needed to be carried out.

The very next morning, two Public Security comrades arrived at Wang Xiaoxiao’s hospital room.

Last night, Sun Guanghui and Sie Yufei took Wang Damin to the guesthouse for a good night’s sleep, Wen Lan caught up on some sleep there in the afternoon, and chased Wang Shumei and Lin Nianhe away in the evening, choosing to stay with Wang Xiaoxiao herself.

When the Public Security comrades arrived, Wang Shumei and Lin Nianhe had already come to the hospital room, and Yufei and the other two had gone to buy breakfast and had not yet returned.

Seeing four girls in the room, the Public Security comrades were also taken aback for a moment: "And you are?"

"Hello comrade, we are educated youth from Hei Province Lan County, we went down to the countryside with Comrade Wang Shumei," Lin Nianhe stood out, saying with a pleasant smile, "Our commune’s leadership has been concerned about Comrade Wang Shumei’s family issues and couldn’t rest easy. Considering he’s tied down with many affairs at the commune and can’t leave, he had us come over to check on things."

"Oh, hello, hello."

The two Public Security comrades exchanged glances, understanding each other’s thoughts.

’Look, the commune’s leadership even went out of their way to send someone to visit!’

’No need to ask, this Comrade Wang Shumei must have performed well while she was sent down to the countryside!’

In just one sentence, the impression of Wang Shumei improved tremendously in the eyes of the Public Security comrades.

The older one of them cleared his throat, about to speak, when Lin Nianhe said again: "Comrade from Public Security, may I ask when will you catch the culprit who maliciously beat the child?"

"Ah?" The Public Security comrade was confused.

Lin Nianhe pointed at Wang Xiaoxiao and said as a matter of course: "Xiaoxiao’s arm was broken by her stepmother Chen Daya right on the street, seen by countless people near the Vegetable Station... Even our Lan County Police Station knows about it, surely you guys must know too, right?"

Public Security comrade: "...?"

Then why didn’t you file a complaint?

If you don’t file a complaint, how are we supposed to know about it?
