Could Big Brother have taken a fancy to Su Wen?
The possibility made Sun Yunyun despise Su Wen even more. She always knew Su Wen was a bad woman. First, she had that relationship with Zhao Jiangang, and now she was trying to seduce her brother!
No. She had to write to Zhou Hengyang and inform him about Su Wen’s misdeeds. She could not let Su Wen continue using him like this.
Sun Yunyun quickly excused herself and returned to her room to draft a letter.
Five to six relatives suddenly rushed into the Sun family courtyard. They were those people gossiping under the mulberry trees just a short while ago. They quickly related everything they had seen and heard of Su Wen to Sun Dahai, describing the encounter in vivid detail. If Sun Dahe’s scowl had been impressive before, it was now downright ugly.
In the end, Old Man Sun stepped in. “We can’t keep this matter private; we were wrong. We won’t gain anything if we kick up a fuss now.”
“Yes, yes.” Several individuals concurred. “Zhou Hengyang’s success in the big city will make things difficult for us. He might try and settle the score if and when he returns.”
“I’ve been sharpening my blade all this while. Are you saying we’re letting that vixen, Su Wen, go?” Sun Dahe blustered angrily. “My wife ran away because of her! I can’t take this lying down.”
“Enough.” Old Man Sun was still the head of the family, and his word was law. Glaring at Sun Dahe, he said, “Our family has nothing to gain if this mess blows up. Your sister will also be implicated. I’ll have your hides if your sister’s reputation is tarnished.”
The three brothers knew their parents were heavily biased toward their sister. They had no choice but to suck it up.
“Then what will we do? We can’t just let the matter rest like that; otherwise, how will our Sun family be able to hold our heads high in Trinity village?”
“Compensation. We must get compensation!” Zhu Yueju clamored. “Make her pay! Make her lose everything! Doesn’t she have a new bicycle? We’ll have her hand it over as compensation for what she’s done.”
Old Man Sun frowned bitterly. Eventually, he came to a decision. “Call the others over. We’ll discuss things properly later tonight. We’ll visit the village chief tomorrow and seek justice.” Old Man Sun had several brothers and nephews, so he had some influence in the Trinity village.
Numbers were important in a fight like this.
Sun Dahai could not accept his father’s verdict. “No. It’s not enough. Su Wen must serve me for three months. Only after my arm has recovered will she be freed from her obligation to me.”
The relatives who had brought word of the events back to the Sun family gaped at Sun Dahai, dumbfounded. An image of Su Wen happily cycling flitted to mind, and he leered gleefully.
It seemed Sun Dahai had fallen for Su Wen.
No wonder he felt Su Wen more attractive now than he did before.
Every rose has its thorns. Sun Dahai was not afraid of biting off more than he could chew. Besides, he had already lost an arm.
Liu Chun rushed back to the provincial capital immediately after he was done with his shopping. It would take a four-hour drive from Clear Water County to the provincial capital. Delivering the letter to his sister-in-law, however, only took three hours.
The workers were still at it when Liu Chun arrived at Changhe Machinery
Factory. He hurried to the director’s office, but Zhou Hengyang was not there. After asking the accountant, he learned that Hengyang had gone to the workshop.
When he got to the workshop, he was pleased to find that he was just in time.
A quick check-in with the workshop’s head foreman informed him they had guests, and he headed for the reception room.
The former director of the factory had great ambitions; hence, the reception room was very well furnished with several sets of black leather sofas and a glass coffee table to match. It was an expensive setup.
When arriving at the reception room, Liu Chun did not immediately encounter Zhou Hengyang. Instead, he was greeted by someone he never expected to see.
“Captain Chu?” Liu Chun almost thought he had entered the wrong room.
The man standing with his back to the door was tall and handsome. If not for the lingering frost clinging to his sideburns, Liu Chun would have thought he was Zhou Hengyang—especially with his well-ironed Air Force uniform and shiny medal..
