Transmigration: Flirted with My Childhood Sweetheart
Chapter 491 - 490: Eradicating Evil Completely

Chapter 491: Chapter 490: Eradicating Evil Completely

Sie Yufei and Sun Guanghui carried Chen Daya out on a stretcher just as Mr. Wang happened to come to deliver a meal.

He held the lunchbox, staring blankly at his wife strapped to the stretcher, standing there stupefied, like a block of wood.

"Umm, umm!"

Chen Daya’s mouth was taped shut; she couldn’t speak and could only look at her husband with pleading eyes, trying to get him to come over and snatch her away.

Mr. Wang’s body violently trembled, as if he had just come back to his senses.

Under his wife’s beseeching gaze, his toes moved slightly, inching forward.

Then he quickly backpedaled three steps, pressing his back against the wall as if there were nowhere else to retreat to. He seemed to wish he could blend into the wall, habitually lowering his head to watch his toes, avoiding Chen Daya’s gaze.

Chen Daya’s eyes widened in astonishment, looking at him in disbelief.

She forgot to struggle further and did not make any more noise; she just stared at Mr. Wang’s face, her eyes reddening.

This was the man she knew all too well.

He was always silent, always disinterested, always looking down, always staying out of it.

Only before, his "always" was directed at Sister Shumei and her sisters, and at that time, Chen Daya thought he was a good man who didn’t meddle in others’ affairs.

But when it came to her own "trifle" being ignored, she experienced what true indifferent despair felt like.

Mr. Wang remained in his shell, not lifting his head again even as Chen Daya completely passed by him.

"As a father, as a husband, you’re utterly a failure; you’re simply unfit to be a father or a husband."

A crisp voice sounded in front of him; he subconsciously looked up, meeting Lin Nianhe’s indifferent eyes.

She looked at him, gently shaking her head: "No, you’re not even worthy of being a man."

Mr. Wang finally had some reaction, probably stung by the remark that he was not fit to be a man.

He furrowed his brows, his lips quivered, and he whispered, though not very loudly: "I am a man."

Lin Nianhe: "Oh, I hadn’t noticed."

...

The Public Security comrade never expected that Lin Nianhe could actually have Chen Daya brought to them.

Bringing her over was not the key point; the key was that this woman’s mouth was even sealed with tape.

To this, Lin Nianhe explained: "She was cursing at you guys all the way, I was worried it would have a bad influence."

Public Security comrade: "..."

Are you sure she was cursing at us and not you?

This was a topic doomed to have no conclusion; the Public Security comrade did not ask further, but examined Chen Daya’s injuries, hesitantly asking: "Her injuries, she won’t die here, right?"

Lin Nianhe replied with reason and evidence: "The doctors have agreed to her discharge, what could be the problem?"

Public Security comrade: "If that’s the case... alright then, bring her in."

Having successfully delivered Chen Daya to the police station, Lin Nianhe didn’t linger longer, taking Wen Lan’s arm and saying to Sie Yufei and Sun Guanghui, who had put in great effort: "Let’s go, it’s time to head back. Sister Shumei and Xiaoxiao should have already arrived at my sister-in-law’s place by now."

Wen Lan immediately grasped Lin Nianhe’s wrist and stood still: "Hezi, you haven’t told Public Security about the spy incident yet!"

Lin Nianhe clicked her tongue, looking quite helpless: "I can mention that kind of thing to doctors, but say it to Public Security comrades? Hah, I still want to live a few more days."

"Huh? So you’re not planning to use your status from the Foreign Trade Department to oppress and have her killed outright?" Xie Yufei also leaned in, kneading his arm as he asked.

"Don’t talk nonsense, and definitely don’t throw around such filthy accusations." Lin Nianhe shook his head.

Xie Yufei: "Then how do you plan to throw it?"

"Fourth Sie, I’d like to ask you to recall whether I said ’have reason to suspect’ and ’if the situation proves true’?" Lin Nianhe gave him a look, "Obviously, I was mistaken in my suspicions, and the situation is not as I thought. She didn’t harm the design apprentice at the textile factory, so she only needs to be responsible for the actual wrongs she has committed... Even Public Security can get the direction wrong in a case, let alone an educated youth like me. It makes sense I was wrong to suspect, doesn’t it? No one has ever sullied her name, never."

Xie Yufei: "..."

He looked above Lin Nianhe’s head, and after a long while, he murmured, "No wonder you’ve grown wiser instead of taller."

Wen Lan still didn’t quite understand: "Then what are you aiming to do?"

"The night has many dreams; eradication of evil should be thorough."

Lin Nianhe, hands in his pockets, meandered toward Qian Guozhu’s house.

...

Wang Xiaoxiao was very happy today, with a smile from the corner of her eyes to her eyebrows.

Not only because she was discharged from the hospital but also because before leaving, Sister Shumei had specially taken her to a hidden corner of the corridor to witness Chen Daya being carried away.

Her sister said that the bad people would be punished and that no one would ever bully her, bully them again.

She sat on the kang, happily teasing Qian Xin with a fabric tiger.

The little guy knew no worries and loved to laugh, waving his little hands and giggling, not getting angry even though his aunt didn’t give him the toy tiger, still laughing.

"Oh, whose well-behaved child is this, our own child, yes!" Wang Xiaoxiao also laughed, bending down to kiss the little one.

Qian Xin laughed even louder, extending his hands towards his aunt, his soft little hands gently resting on Wang Xiaoxiao’s cast-covered arm.

He opened his big, round black eyes as if to comfort Wang Xiaoxiao.

"Is Xin Xin feeling sorry for auntie?" Wang Xiaoxiao revealed her small white teeth, "Auntie isn’t in pain, auntie is very happy."

Qian Xin blinked his big eyes and puffed bubbles with his mouth.

The sister-in-law entered with a small bowl and saw Wang Xiaoxiao bending over and said, "Xiaoxiao, just let him be, you still have a hurt arm, don’t move it too much, you don’t want the pain to come back."

As she spoke, the sister-in-law placed the small bowl next to Wang Xiaoxiao, filled with thinly sliced braised beef.

"Sister Nianhe said that beef is good for you, your brother spent days finding it, eat more and you’ll recover quicker," the sister-in-law said, tenderly touching Wang Xiaoxiao’s cheek, "I’ve cooked it all today, it’ll keep, take it with you tomorrow when you leave with your sister, lest she doesn’t know how to make it."

"Sister-in-law..." Wang Xiaoxiao’s eyes grew warm, and she snuggled into the sister-in-law’s embrace.

The sister-in-law soothingly patted her back: "Why cry? You’re a big girl now. Besides, in a little while, your brother and I will also come over, then you can stay with your sister-in-law when you go to school in town."

"Sister Nianhe said there are many empty houses in the textile factory’s family compound. We’ll move into a new place when it’s time, sister-in-law will get you a new desk, convenient for your reading and writing, I’ll crochet a peony flower tablecloth for you, and buy a red lamp, okay?"

"Your sister said that recommendations don’t work for university admissions in Lan County; you have to take an exam. Study hard, and if you get into university, our family will have a college student!"

"Xiaoxiao, be obedient, we’re not afraid anymore, we’ll stay far away from them, and won’t mix with these people..."

Behind the door, Wang Shumei poked Lin Nianhe’s face and asked softly, "Why are you always watching my sister-in-law?"

"Nothing, just set myself a small goal."

"What goal?"

"To find a wife for my brother just like your sister-in-law."
