Qin Zhenzhen acted as if she hadn’t heard the hooligan’s words.
“What did you say? I don’t understand!” she replied, pretending to be clueless.
Unfazed, the hooligan repeated fearlessly, “I’m telling you, you’ve got it all wrong! Su Lan and I have been together for a long time. If you know what’s good for her, you better act like you don’t know anything. Otherwise, things might turn ugly for her…’
He had overheard that one of them was Su Lan’s sister-in-law, and the other was her brother.
Though uncertain about why these two individuals suddenly appeared, the hooligan aimed to deceive them for the time being. He hoped that when Wang Yizhi and his accomplices arrived to catch them in the act, everything would work out in his favor.
Initially confused, Su Lan began to comprehend the hooligan’s words, pointing a trembling finger at him. “You… you’re talking nonsense!”
“Don’t worry, Elder Sister. We won’t believe a word he says!” Qin Zhenzhen reassured her, exchanging a knowing look with her Fourth Brother.
Qin Silong barked angrily at the hooligan, “Who gave you the audacity to spew such lies?”
“Do you really think we’d fall for this nonsense? Even if you had some secret relationship with Su Lan, you wouldn’t dare to meet like this in broad daylight!”
“Now, tell me, who put you up to this foolish act?”
Realizing that time was of the essence, Qin Silong devised a tactic to deal with the captive who refused to tell the truth.
He firmly restrained the hooligan and applied pressure to a sensitive area, causing the hooligan immense humiliation and pain. He wanted the hooligan to divulge the truth.
Feeling as if Qin Silong were pulling at his internal organs, the hooligan’s screams were stifled by the rags Qin Silong had stuffed into his mouth.
The intense torture nearly pushed the hooligan to the brink of unconsciousness. Seeing this, Qin Silong ceased the torment momentarily.
Drenched in sweat and writhing in agony, the hooligan couldn’t help but plead with Qin Silong, promising to speak the truth, fearing another round of torture.
The hooligan was desperate to avoid any further torture. Qin Silong’s methods were excruciating, and he knew he couldn’t endure more.
Upon hearing that hooligan’s confession, Su Lan couldn’t believe her ears. She lunged at him, attempting to silence him.
“You’re crazy! My husband is not like this! Stop spewing nonsense!” Su Lan shouted, her emotions running wild.
Tears streaming down his face, the hooligan insisted, “I’m telling the truth. Wang Yizhi is marrying a wealthy woman, and he intends to leave you. He’ll catch you in the act and divorce you on the spot…’
The shocking revelation almost made Su Lan faint.
Qin Zhenzhen helped her up and retrieved a small black pill-like object. “Fourth Brother, give this to him. If he dares to challenge Wang Yizhi later, let him experience the torture again.”
“Alright!” Qin Silong agreed.
Taking hold of the hooligan’s chin, Qin Silong forced the pill into his mouth, then tapped his neck to make sure the pill went down.
The hooligan’s face turned pale in fear.
At that moment, footsteps could be heard approaching from outside.
“Mom, are you sure you saw Su Lan entering this room?” It was Wang Yizhi’s voice.
“Yes, I saw her with my own eyes. I can’t believe what she’s doing in there. She was looking around anxiously before entering, as if she feared being caught.. ‘ Su Lan recognized her mother-in-law’s voice.
A gossipy woman’s voice chimed in, “So you’re saying Su Lan…”
The woman’s sentence was left unfinished, but she had already assumed that Su Lan and the hooligan were having an affair.
“Don’t talk nonsense without evidence!”
That was Wang Yizhi’s voice.
At this moment, Su Lan understood everything.
Her husband, Wang Yizhi, had asked her to borrow the hammer from this place, but he pretended that he had no idea where she was!
