一夜情

Zhao Chuhu looked at Zhao Baogen as if she were smiling but did not reply to him.

“Enough!” the village chief yelled. “Do you even know who this man is? He’s not someone you can frame! Take them to the county office. The magistrate will be the judge of this matter!”

The color on Zhao Baogen’s face was instantly drained when he heard that. “Chief, shouldn’t you apprehend Zhao Chuchu first?”

“Why should I? Save your explanation for the magistrate!”

Zhao Chuchu was not someone that the village chief could offend, but the one he couldn’t offend the most was the man.

For the people from the Zhao clan to try and frame the man, they should be punished for that.

With the chief’s order, the strong men quickly apprehended Zhao Baogen and the rest.

Because their legs were broken, they could only wail in pain as they got up.

“Chuchu, please forgive us! I was wrong! I promise that I won’t do it again! This is all Zhao Baogen’s idea! He told us to take all the money away from you! I have nothing to do with it!”

Zhao Chuchu stood in front of them and ignored their pleas.

Zhao Baogen did not divert his gaze away from her and continued to stare at her angrily.

Seeing that, the lady reached her arm out and stuck her thumb out, pointing downward.

It had only made Zhao Baogen even more furious.

Zhao Chuchu grinned and turned around, not giving her uncle the chance to do anything.

“Zhao Chuchu, what do you want? As long as you let us go, I’ll promise you anything!” Zhao Baogen said.

He knew that being judged by the magistrate would be the worst outcome. If the magistrate decided he was a bandit, his life would be over.

Zhao Chuchu turned to look at Zhao Baogen. “Didn’t you try and take what’s mine away from me?”

“I’m just taking what’s mine back!”

“Since when are my things yours?”

“Because I’m your uncle…”

“How many times have I heard that? Even if I let you go today, you’ll still come and rob me the next day. Everything is out now, and no matter how good you are with your mouth, you’re not getting out of this!”

“Are you even a man? Why are you acting like a pussy now?” The man sighed. “How dare you even try and rob your own niece? That’s so embarrassing. Miss, don’t be afraid. I’ll vouch for you at the magistrate’s place! These people are bandits for sure!”

“Thank you.” Zhao Chuchu took a glance at the man.

“Don’t worry about it.”

It would take them around four hours to get to Yuanjiang County from Yongfu Town.

Zhao Chuchu also knew that despite providing a method to cure the plague, the people in ancient times valued family more than anything.

She also vaguely remembered that during the Wei Dynasty, suing one’s elders would get them beaten 10 times with a cane.

There was no way she would get caned 10 times for that.

The people from the Zhao clan kept begging for forgiveness on their way back to the town.

When their finally got there, Zhao Chuchu pretended to have a soft heart and said, “Chief, let’s not take them to the county office.”

“Why? Are you still scared of them? This is all their own doing! The magistrate won’t cane you for that.” The chief assured. “We can be your witnesses.”

“No. It’s just that I don’t want to make a big commotion out of this. How about this? We’ll let every single one of them sign a confession of their crimes. If they try to harm me again, I’ll bring the confessions to the county office.”

“Don’t push your luck, Zhao Chuchu!” Zhao Baogen roared. “Why should we sign those things?”

However, when he finished his sentence, another person yelled, “I’ll sign it!”
