Just as this thought flashed across Pei Yao’s mind, she saw the old man lying on the ground squirming like a worm and screaming.
“Murder! Help! Boohoo! Murder!”
His cries were like those of a pig being butchered. They were full of energy, spreading far and wide.
Hearing his incomparably loud and bright voice, Chi Jiao could completely confirm that this old man was fine.
Pei Yao stepped forward and grabbed the old man’s collar, dragging him in front of her. “Shut up, or I’ll beat you up again!”
This old man was definitely up to no good.
There was no need for her to treat him like an elder.
The old man watched as Pei Yao raised her fist at him. His eyes trembled in fear and he immediately stopped shouting.
Chi Jiao walked forward and sized up the old man. “Why were you following us?”
The old man turned his gaze to her.
He looked at the girl in front of him who looked rather innocent and kind. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. “I didn’t do anything. You’re the ones who attacked an old man like me. I… I…”
Before he could finish speaking, the old man fainted.
“Jiaojiao, he fainted. What should we do?” Pei Yao looked helplessly at the old man lying on the ground.
Chi Jiao examined the old man. From the way his chest heaved, she knew that he was pretending to be unconscious.
This was because the human body would be in a different state when a person was truly unconscious.
The old man was probably very nervous, so his chest was heaving up and down.
At this moment, hurried footsteps approached the alley.
Chi Jiao and Pei Yao turned their heads to look over. They saw a dozen strong men with wooden sticks swaggering over, blocking up the entrance of the alley.
The leader was wearing a tattered black cotton jacket. He glanced at the old man lying on the ground, and an indescribable emotion flashed across his eyes. He then said to a young man behind him, “Liu Qiu, quickly go and see how your grandfather is doing.”
Liu Qiu immediately ran to the old man and squatted down to help him up. He then patted the old man’s chest.
“Grandpa, wake up! Don’t scare me!”
The old man opened his eyes “weakly” after being patted a couple of times. He stretched out his trembling hand and pointed at Chi Jiao and Pei Yao, who were standing not far away. “It’s the two of them. They teamed up to beat me up. Aiyo, my old bones were nearly shattered by the two of them. If you guys had come any later, I would have been beaten to death by them.”
After hearing what the old man said, Chi Jiao suddenly smiled.
When old men decided to behave shamelessly, they could be even more shameless than young people.
They could always take advantage of their age and weakness to extort others.
Nevertheless, she wanted to see how these people were going to blackmail them.
Pei Yao was completely shocked by the old man’s shamelessness.
“Uncle Huang, you have to help my grandfather!” Liu Qiu said as he helped Old Man Liu up.
Huang Shan was the person in the black jacket. He nodded. “Don’t worry. These two outsiders are bullying the people in our village. We can’t let this matter rest.”
“What do you want?” Pei Yao looked at him indifferently.
