Chapter 458: Chapter 458: All Taken Away

She stepped forward directly.

“Go to hell, you b*tch!” Wang Liang, having lost face in front of everyone, was determined to kill the woman who just kicked him.

“Wang Liang, what are you doing!”

Father Shi saw Wang Liang’s actions and was so scared that he rushed over.

Lin Xiaoyan caught the incoming steel pipe with one hand, staring directly at Wang Liang.

Wang Liang was stunned, and so were the people around him.

They didn’t expect this young girl to catch a steel pipe bare-handed?!

Doesn’t it hurt?

However, Lin Xiaoyan showed no signs of pain on her face and instead snatched the steel pipe away.

“Do you like hurting people that much?”

Lin Xiaoyan asked Wang Liang blankly.

Wang Liang was frightened by Lin Xiaoyan’s actions and expression; he couldn’t believe someone caught the pipe like that.

Realizing he’d met a tough opponent, his eyes darted around, and he stepped back, preparing to flee.

Lin Xiaoyan swung the steel pipe directly at his leg.

“Ah!”

Wang Liang fell to the ground in pain.

Then, his leg and behind were beaten so painfully.

“I was wrong, stop hitting me! Help, someone pull her away!”

Wang Liang cried for help in pain.

At this moment, Father Shi and others felt extremely pleased seeing Wang Liang being beaten.

But fearing trouble, Father Shi stepped forward to persuade Lin Xiaoyan.

“Young lady, stop. It’s not worth getting yourself in trouble over trash like him.”

Lin Xiaoyan stopped, looked at the whining Wang Liang on the ground, and glanced to the other side where Shi Mingru had already been rescued.

There were people lying everywhere on the ground.

“Uncle, could you please find a rope for me, a long one.”

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the people on the ground and said to Father Shi.

Seeing Lin Xiaoyan’s feat moments ago, though confused, Father Shi hurriedly called someone to get a rope.

Some smart individuals on the ground realized something was off and tried to sneak away.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyan picked up a stone from the ground and flung it directly.

“Ouch!”

The person had just stood up when the stone hit their leg, causing them to fall right back down.

Some families of those involved began to speak up.

“What’s going on? What’s going on? They’re just playing around. How can you go and hit people!”

“Exactly, they’re just joking, playing around, is that really necessary?”

“We’re playing nice with you, because we respect you.

It’s our tradition here, a wedding must be lively, the more fun the better!”

“Yeah, Ningzi, get up. I dare anyone to hit you!”

People began shouting for those on the ground to get up and leave, while also blaming the Shi Family and Lin Xiaoyan.

Shi Mingru, now properly dressed, looked furiously at the onlookers.

“Aunties and sisters, what you’re saying isn’t right!

These past few days, my parents brought gifts and visited your homes. For what?

Just to ask you not to cause trouble today!”

“Didn’t you all agree properly? We’re all neighbors, living on the same street. Why say one thing and do another?”

Shi Mu stepped forward too, loudly questioning them.

“I gave each of your families a pack of cigarettes, good ones too. What did you say then? Promised not to cause trouble, now look at this?

Do you intentionally disrespect us, want to embarrass us in front of our in-laws?

Fine! Consider this a done deal; don’t have your kids come through my door when they get married!”

At Shi Mu’s words, the faces of those who had caused trouble turned sour.

On this street, the Shi Family was the first house, meaning if any family’s children were to get married, they had to pass by the Shi Family’s door.

A family that had already married off their child wore a smug expression.

“Our child is already married, we’re not worried!”

Shi Mu sneered, “Sister Zhang, your words have ruined our decades of friendship.”

Sister Zhang paused, oh dear, her mind was clouded; she showed an embarrassed smile and quickly apologized to Shi Mu.

“Fen Zhi, look at me, I was muddled.

Uh, sorry, I didn’t manage my son well, I’ll take him back and teach him properly.

Today is a joyful day for your family, let Ming Ru carry the bride inside quickly, don’t delay the auspicious time.”

With these words, Father Shi and Shi Mu came to their senses, oh dear, the daughter-in-law was still in the car.

Shi Mingru, with a sullen face, by then Lin Xiaoyan had already received the rope.

“Tie them all up, and hand them over to the police when they arrive,” Lin Xiaoyan said coldly.

“But…”

Father Shi and Shi Mu hesitated at Lin Xiaoyan’s words.

They hadn’t intended to escalate the situation, and they all lived in the same neighborhood; getting things too ugly would be inconvenient for future living arrangements, this…

Xiao Bo and Nan Xi disregarded others’ objections and quickly tied everyone together.

Ah, then there’s Wang Liang!

Nan Xi approached Father Shi and Shi Mu, “Uncle, Auntie, don’t worry, once the police arrive, they’ll just need to cooperate with the investigation.

If there’s nothing wrong, the police won’t arrest them.”

Lin Xiaoyan nodded, looking at these parents, recalling the previous scenes where they couldn’t handle the blow of losing their son, daughter-in-law, and unborn grandchild, and subsequently passed away.

The police cars arrived, and a group of officers got out.

Seeing so many police, the surrounding people were stunned.

Why did so many police come for such a small matter?

Wang Liang and a few other young men were nearly scared to tears.

They were just messing around, how did it escalate to involving the police?

The police, seeing a group of bound people, were also taken aback, “Who reported this?”

Lin Xiaoyan stepped forward.

“Officer, hello, it was me who reported the incident.”

Subsequently, everyone involved in the incident would have to go to the police station.

Lin Xiaoyan explained the situation to an officer, asking if Shi Mingru and his family could host the wedding before going to the police station.

The officer, with a cold face, said, “No.”

Nearby, Nan Xi finished a call and passed the phone to the officer who had said no.

After hearing the voice on the phone, the officer’s attitude changed immediately.

After hanging up, the officer looked at Lin Xiaoyan with a suddenly altered gaze.

“Then hold the wedding, don’t delay the time.”

The Shi family looked at Lin Xiaoyan and the police in astonishment.

Ai Lin was also filled with shock.

The wedding proceeded as planned, but people’s hearts weren’t at peace.

Today’s event disturbed everyone’s mood.

Some didn’t show up as their family members had been taken away.

Shi Mu noticed and simply didn’t care anymore. If they don’t come, then they don’t come!

It’s their own fault for breaking their promise: not to cause trouble, but with that racket from Wang Liang and those boys, everyone went along with it!

Serves them right! They need a lesson, lest they think our family is easy to bully!
