At this point, Liu Shufen couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

"It's a pity that I let that Bai boss get away scot-free."

"And his son, he's nothing either. Just two days ago, he even came to my house to threaten me."

Hearing Liu Shufen say this,

there was a hint of frustration in her tone.

Her face was also flushed red.

Luo Fei was somewhat surprised.

"Ms. Liu, what did you say?"

"You said Bai Rongjun came to see you before?"

Liu Shufen listened but was noncommittal.

"Yes!"

"Though he didn't come personally, I could feel it. Those people must have been sent by him."

Liu Shufen said, somewhat hesitant to continue.

Luo Fei could only shake his head helplessly.

"Ms. Liu, before you are absolutely sure, you shouldn't jump to conclusions."

"Without sufficient evidence, we police cannot simply arrest someone."

But seeing Luo Fei's skepticism, even unwillingness to believe her words,

Liu Shufen shook her head and said,

"Mr. Luo, you don't understand. Given Bai Rongjun's character, even if he didn't do it himself,

he would stop at nothing."

Liu Shufen's tone was melancholic,

her expression extremely serious.

This made Luo Fei slightly surprised.

"Liu Shufen, do you have any basis for what you're saying?"

Listening, Liu Shufen bitterly smiled and rolled up her right sleeve.

"Mr. Luo, this scar was left on me by Bai Rongjun. Isn't that reason enough?"

Hearing Liu Shufen's rhetorical question,

and looking at the scar on her arm, a full foot long,

Luo Fei couldn't help but be surprised.

"Liu Shufen, how did you get this scar?"

Seeing Luo Fei a bit puzzled,

seemingly unable to make sense of it all,

Liu Shufen had no choice but to sigh and explain.

"Mr. Luo, just a few years ago. When my husband was still driving for Bai Boss."

"One time, Bai Rongjun went out drinking with friends late at night. Nobody could drive, so they dragged my husband out of bed to drive them home."

"Because of this, I went to confront Bai Boss the next morning. But Bai Rongjun said he paid triple overtime. So it was only right to call him over."

But Liu Shufen knew,

her husband, besides being a driver, also had his own side job.

Every day after work, he would put in an extra two hours,

just to make sure their son had money for tutoring, to keep his grades up.

"In this situation, he was already overworked every day. He couldn't even rest properly at night. If, while driving, he made a slight mistake and caused an accident, how would our family survive?"

As Liu Shufen spoke, Luo Fei nodded.

"Yes, Sister Liu, you're right. And then what happened? Did the matter just end there?"

Seeing Luo Fei somewhat puzzled,

Liu Shufen sighed and said,

"At first, when I went to confront them, the father and son promised not to do anything like that again."

"But Bai Rongjun later became even worse, often calling him over late at night. Sometimes, not even because he was drunk, he just enjoyed tormenting my husband."

"Eventually, I couldn't take it anymore, so I went with my husband to confront him. He ended up smashing us with a beer bottle from a roadside stall and had his thugs attack us, saying it was our duty to do such things and that resisting meant a dead end."

"We had no way out."

Liu Shufen spoke, holding her forehead with one hand.

Her face full of fear,

clearly infuriated by the other party's unreasonable behavior.

Luo Fei nodded and said,

"Sister Liu, you and your husband's actions were right. On the other hand, this Bai Rongjun is the one being unreasonable."

But compared to Luo Fei,

Li Yu, standing at the side, didn't intend to fully buy into Sister Liu's words.

"Sister Liu, though what you say makes some sense,"

"the reality might not be exactly as you describe. And the current state of Bai Rongjun is a far cry from how you describe him. This somewhat lacks convincing power."

Li Yu's suspicion was understandable,

after all, when she knew Bai Rongjun,

he was always timid,

cautious when speaking with people,

let alone doing such outrageous things as Liu Shufen described.

"Officer, it's only natural if you don't believe me. After all, the Bai Rongjun of then and now are worlds apart."

"Now, since his father ran out of money and the family failed, he's reined himself in a lot."

"But I can swear to the heavens that everything I say is true. Including the hospital records from when I was admitted, which can be looked up. And I still keep contact information for his former cohorts, the location of the barbecue shop, and the owner's contact details."

Liu Shufen spoke sincerely, hoping that they would believe her words,

and prove herself innocent of error.

But seeing her sincerity, baring her heart,

Luo Fei had other concerns.

"One thing, Sister Liu, if you knew early on that the Bai family had fallen, why didn't you confront them sooner instead of waiting until now?"

Seeing Luo Fei somewhat confused,

not understanding why she waited until now,

Sister Liu just shook her head and said,

"Officer Luo, isn't it because of my husband?"

"Talking about this really angers me!"
