Chapter 1283: Chapter 1283
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Two men in black appeared from behind. One of them threw away the wooden stick in his hand and took out a sack from behind.
“Hurry up and put her in!”
The two of them immediately took action and stuffed the unconscious Chu Wanwan into the sack.
“I really didn’t expect that the lady boss of the cafe would come back in the middle of the night.”
“Who cares! Just catch her!”
“But where are we taking her?”
One of them looked very timid, while the other said fiercely, “Where are we taking her? To a place where we can sell her!”
The two of them said as they left with the sack.
Just as the two of them left, Xu Chuchu arrived.
She did not know why, but she could not sleep peacefully that night, so she decided to go to the cafe to make new tea.
She picked up the key to unlock the door and found that the cafe was in a mess. There were several different footprints inside.
She seemed to have realized something and was shocked.
Could it be that evil people were coming?
When she looked again, a hairpin happened to fall into a corner. She touched the hairpin with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
This hairpin was very familiar. She seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
When she thought of this, she could not help but think of the hairpin on Chu Wanwan’s head that she saw during the day. She immediately grinned.
How did she lose her hairpin? She wondered if she came in in the middle of the night and lost it.
However, she had to report this matter to the village. After all, if something really happened, it would be difficult for her cafe to continue operating.
However, it was very difficult to communicate with the village chief, so she could only talk to Jiang Ming.
Unexpectedly, she was targeted as soon as she entered the village. She was not familiar with the roads in the village and lost her way as she walked. Moreover, it was getting late. For some reason, she walked to an empty place.
This place smelled pretty good.
“A floral fragrance?”
Xu Chuchu could not help but mutter.
“That’s right! It’s the fragrance of flowers!”
Then, a figure landed. Xu Chuchu looked up and saw a strong man with a stubbly beard standing in front of her.
“You’re the village…”
She could roughly guess.
“That’s right!”
“Who are you?”
The man snorted coldly.
He was extremely bored that night, so he went on a patrol to kill time. Coincidentally, there were suspicious people in the village, so he decided to follow them all the way here.
“I’m the owner of the cafe, Xu Chuchu. I’m here to see Jiu Zhu.”
Xu Chuchu introduced herself. The man was furious when he heard that. “You’re not here to cause trouble for my daughter, are you?”
After saying that, the village chief rushed forward.
Seeing that he was serious, Xu Chuchu could only bite the bullet.
The village chief was powerful, to begin with. Even in front of a woman, he had to use his full strength. Moreover, this woman in front of him had an ambiguous relationship with his daughter and future son-in-law. He had even used all of his strength. He definitely could not let her off easily!
The more Xu Chuchu fought, the harder it became to defend herself.
Her martial arts skills were not too weak, but in front of such brute force, she was simply not strong enough. She could not hold on any longer.
“Ah!”
Xu Chuchu was finally knocked down by the strong wind that swept away the fallen leaves. However, she was here to see Jiang Ming, so she forced herself to stand up again.
When the chief saw this, he smiled faintly. “You have quite a backbone. Alright, I’ll accompany you to the end!”
The people crowding around, who had been alarmed and rushed over, could not help but feel their hearts turn cold.
With the village chief’s character, he would probably beat Xu Chuchu until she almost died.
They could not bear to see such a beautiful girl being treated like this by their chief.
“What a pity!”
Fortunately, the commotion from the fight was loud enough that Jiang Ming, who had wanted to go out to look for Chu Wanwan, heard it.
“What’s going on outside?”
He walked out of the room and met a cleaner. He pulled the cleaner and asked.
“I don’t know. I heard that a woman came. Our village chief was especially angry and personally attacked her. That woman was beaten half to death and is about to die.”
After saying that, the man went back to work.
Jiang Ming frowned.
A woman? Beaten half to death?
His heart was pounding.
What kind of person was this to make the village chief so angry?
“Could it be…”
A bad thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and he hurriedly went out.
It had to be someone he was familiar with.
Unexpectedly, his intuition was so accurate. Jiang Ming always felt that the battle outside was most likely related to him. When he arrived at the square, he was instantly dumbfounded!
With an overwhelming advantage, the village chief swept his leg over. The sound of the wind was deafening. Xu Chuchu instinctively dodged, but she could no longer dodge the next strike.
“Be careful!”
Seeing that the strike was coming, Jiang Ming immediately rushed over to grab Xu Chuchu and shot to the side. This strike almost shattered the tree behind Xu Chuchu.
Jiang Ming heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Xu Chuchu, who was still in shock, and asked with concern, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine, Jiu Zhu.”
Xu Chuchu nodded, and Jiang Ming let go.
In the eyes of the village chief, this scene between the two of them was simply unpardonable.
Jiang Ming saw that the village chief was looking at him with a murderous gaze. He quickly went forward to explain. “Chief, I don’t know if there’s any misunderstanding. This cafe owner, Xu Chuchu, is my good friend.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the village chief became even angrier.
“A good friend? Ridiculous! I know that you’re also a person who knows etiquette. As the saying goes, men and women should not be close to each other. You hugged her so tightly just now! Can a good friend hug you like that?”
When Jiang Ming heard this, he immediately frowned. However, he still had to explain properly. “Chief, your attacks are very powerful. I had to hurriedly dodge. I only acted out of impulse.”
He felt helpless.
If it was not for the Yellow Gall Grass, he would not be like this.
However, his explanation sounded like an excuse to the village chief. It was full of lies.
“I don’t think that’s the case at all, right? This girl came all the way to find you, but she didn’t escape even after being beaten by me. What kind of friendship can go to such an extent?”
“This…”
The village chief’s words made Jiang Ming speechless. He looked at Xu Chuchu beside him.
She was also speechless.
Even though this was unreasonable, and she had almost been killed just now, she still had not come back to her senses and did not know what to say.
Jiang Ming frowned.
They did not know what to say, but they would harm each other.
Just as he had expected, the village chief shouted angrily, “Men!”
With that order, many people suddenly jumped out from all directions.
Jiang Ming was stunned when he saw so many people jumping out.
Xu Chuchu was even more shocked.
Where were these people hiding? Were they always there?
The people had already surrounded the two of them. The two of them had a bad premonition and felt even more helpless.
What should they do now?
“Capture the two of them and keep them in the pigs’ cage tomorrow!”
Jiang Ming was completely dumbfounded by the village chief’s roar.
Xu Chuchu trembled in fear.
Why was this happening? Why?
They were innocent!
“Chief, listen to me…”
Jiang Ming wanted to defend himself, but he was frustrated.
