Chapter 653: Chapter 631: Courting Death

Ye Qing knows how to charm people. Originally, everyone didn’t think highly of her; sometimes Ye Qing could see their mocking eyes. But she kept it all in her heart. On the surface, she remained warm and friendly towards them, always looking poised and courteous.

Over time, the military wives felt that Vice Era Mei and Team Era, the new wife of the Chang family, weren’t as bad as they said, not someone seizing a rich family’s position. It was nothing like that at all.

Ye Qing’s usual behavior wasn’t like a homewrecker at all. Moreover, Ye Qing often unintentionally mentioned in the compound how Mei Lang Jun pursued her back then. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Everyone believed that the two of them got together after Mei Langchi’s divorce.

In Vice Era Mei, Team Era, the Chang family’s wife was gracious and knowledgeable, and very enthusiastic. Everyone wasn’t as resistant as they initially were, and Ye Qing gradually made some good friends among the military wives.

The person speaking was considered one of the better friends among the military wives.

This wife from the army spoke up, and the family members behind also chimed in, "Yeah, there are so many human traffickers nowadays. Just a few days ago, there was someone trying to snatch a child at the school gate."

"Could be him. This person doesn’t look like a good person."

"Mr. Ye, since he’s not your father, we’ll take him away then. Publicly using violence and acting shamelessly at the entrance of the unit, this matter should be taken to the police. Is your injury serious? If not, let’s get it assessed at the hospital."

"My injury is fine. Not serious. You should deal with him. He’s terrifying."

"You wretched woman, I’m your real father, and you dare treat your own dad like this? Are you even human? Quickly explain to them who I really am." Ye Weijun’s frantic fury made Ye Qing tremble and hide in the crowd, sobbing repeatedly, "No, no, no, I don’t know him at all. I’m from S City. My mom is also there, my dad had an accident and died years ago. If you don’t believe me, wait for Langchi to come back and ask him. Officer, you must arrest him, I really don’t know him... He just came and beat me without any reason. Langchi isn’t home, I’m all alone and terrified."

"Sister-in-law, don’t be scared, we all believe you. No real father would be so cruel to their own daughter."

"That’s right, traffickers nowadays use this tactic. They grab someone and claim they’re family. Outsiders mostly believe it. In the end, those women and children are sold off into the mountains. It’s terrifying! Officer, hurry and arrest him. We can’t have such things happening in our unit."

"Exactly. Look how he beat our sister-in-law, her face is all swollen."

The officer felt there was something off about the old man; a father shouldn’t be so harsh.

Indeed, something was suspicious.

"Xiao Wang, call the police and have them take him away for a proper interrogation. See what this man is up to."

"Yes, Officer."

"Let go of me, I’m Mei Langchi’s father-in-law, you can’t just arrest me. Hurry up and release me, or when my son-in-law returns, you’ll regret it."

Ye Weijun was lifted by two people. He began to panic, "Comrades, comrades, I just left the detention center, I can’t go back in. I really am her dad; Ah Qing, quickly explain to the officer."

Ye Weijun might have been foolish, his reckless words made everyone at the entrance more certain he was no good person. Good people don’t end up in detention centers.

"Look, this person got scared. Someone who’s been in detention must have done many bad things."

"No, I didn’t do bad things. I merely climbed a wall at night to find someone. I didn’t steal anything."

"Officer, listen, this person even did things like stealing. Climbing a fence at night. We can’t let him loose in their compound. The men are usually not home; it’s full of women and children."

"Hurry, send him to the police station."

"Yes, we’ll handle it now."

"I’m innocent, you can’t just arrest me like this. Let me go. Ah Qing, dad was wrong, I shouldn’t have hit you. Please ask them for mercy; Dad doesn’t want to go to jail. Ah Qing..."

Ye Weijun was forcibly taken away by two soldiers. Seeing he wouldn’t quiet down, they stuffed something in his mouth.

Being shouted at by him, Ye Qing feigned fear and lowered her head, sobbing softly.

The officer saw her truly scared and quickly instructed some military wives to take her to the medical room for her injury.

Every time Ye Weijun hit her and her mom, he was particularly brutal. She received such a hard slap, half her face was swollen like a pig’s head.

Her body was also bruised and purple, several wives felt pain for her.

People can be like this; when they dislike you, everyone dislikes you; when they like you, everyone likes you.

Just look now, even those wives who rarely spoke with her came over, whether truly concerned or just seeing her misfortune, Ye Qing didn’t care.

These injuries weren’t suffered in vain; after all, the wives came to visit her at home.

She received many free fruits, snacks, and brown sugar, and someone even brought her free lunch. Of course, she was happy.

"Qing, did you offend anyone here, and they’ve come to mess with you? You should be careful from now on. Maybe take some leave."

"That’s right, that person looked ferocious. Your Mei’s not around, you’re coming and going alone; what if something happens?"

Several wives worriedly advised Ye Qing.

But this made Ye Qing uncomfortable, feeling like they were saying she caused trouble outside.

Still, she put on a weak attitude and smiled, "You ladies are right, today I was just dazed, suddenly getting beaten like that. Just bad luck. I’ll call the factory soon and take a few days off. I won’t dare go out these days."

"That’s true, stay home and rest. I heard your job designing is flexible; work time is adjustable. You’re admired by all the wives in the compound."

"You’re too kind, sister-in-law. I didn’t graduate from S City University for nothing." Ye Qing’s words made some present wives slightly embarrassed.

They felt a bit awkward.

One wife didn’t want to stay longer; she smiled and said, "Qing, take care of your injuries and rest well. We won’t bother you anymore."

"Yes, we won’t bother you."

"Sister-in-law, thank you all for today. When Langchi returns, I’ll invite everyone for dinner at home. You must come then."

"Sure, sure," they responded with a faint smile and left. Once the warm-hearted wives were gone, Ye Qing’s face turned cold immediately, a mocking expression quickly flashing across.

However, thinking of Ye Weijun’s embarrassing appearance, Ye Qing suddenly grinned.

"Humph, Ye Weijun, don’t blame me for having no family affection, your actions before were heartless, making this daughter hate you deeply. You’ve got a good home you don’t live in, coming over here to cause trouble. If you don’t suffer, you won’t know what is above you. Outside, who cares if you die."

Ye Qing actually considered, if given the chance, she’d make Ye Weijun die a miserable death.

However, Ye Weijun’s arrival was something Ye Qing didn’t want Mei Langchi to know. She didn’t want him to know she had such a disgraceful family.

Thankfully, Mei Langchi didn’t seem too concerned about her family; she didn’t speak, he didn’t ask. This situation left Ye Qing feeling uneasy. They were married, yet he didn’t even know her family situation until she mentioned it?

But Ye Qing only said she had a brother and sister-in-law, newly married.

She said that because she didn’t want to bring Mei Langchi home nor let him see her father.

Without doubt, if Ye Weijun knew he had a capable son-in-law, he’d brag and become a leech clinging to them.

If things ended up like that, Mei Langchi might tire of her father, and she’d be disliked too.

So she resolutely couldn’t let such things happen.

Just days ago, her mom said he returned to their hometown. She didn’t expect him to show up here and know Mei Langchi was his son-in-law.

Someone must have told him on purpose.

The only ones knowing about her and Mei Langchi were Han Yi and Lin Wan; she couldn’t think of anyone else. Thinking of those two made Ye Qing grit her teeth in hatred. Her clenched fists turned pale.
