Ruling the Historical Romance Novel as the Female Supporting Character-Chapter 218: The Village Chief Comes to Plead

"Oh, if you don’t want to live, then don’t. What does it have to do with me?" Su Yijia tilted her head, looking at Yuan Xiangning with an innocent expression.

Yuan Xiangning couldn’t believe she said such words. The last trace of color drained from her face. Seeing that she didn’t respond, Su Yijia continued, "You should hurry and plead with the village chief, explain your relationship with him. Maybe you can save him."

The male educated youth had contacted the wrong person and said such shameless things to her, the inspector. Even if the villagers were simple, they were unlikely to let him off. But if it was revealed that he was in a relationship with the female educated youth and many people knew about it, the village chief should come to speak some kind words, considering it might ruin the girl’s life.

But Yuan Xiangning didn’t believe Su Yijia’s words. Seeing that she really didn’t care about their lives, she could only glare at her with resentment before getting up from the ground and rushing to the village chief’s house.

Once everyone had left, Su Yijia turned to Qin Kaize.

The man’s eyes were dark, with a hint of burning jealousy, covered by a cold mask.

"I just wanted to see if he was in cahoots with the people on the train or if he was just inherently untrustworthy," Su Yijia twisted her hands nervously, her voice soft and hesitant.

Qin Kaize’s chest heaved a bit. After a few seconds, he seemed to calm down. Even his gaze softened considerably.

"I know he approached you first, but if something like this happens again, leave it to us to handle."

"Okay, but promise me you won’t get angry," Su Yijia held Qin Kaize’s arm and shook it. Although he couldn’t feel his body, his wife’s affectionate gestures still lifted his mood considerably.

"I’m not angry," Qin Kaize replied quickly. However, the fleeting flash of ferocity in his eyes couldn’t escape Su Yijia’s notice.

She leaned closer to Qin Kaize’s face, her expression curious. "Are you planning something?"

Qin Kaize looked at her fair face. Although it was full of excitement, it also gave off an innocent vibe, as if she were a child eager to do mischief. He lowered his long lashes, hiding the glint in his eyes.

He didn’t give Su Yijia any answer.

Su Yijia didn’t give up, tilting her body to get closer to his lowered eyelids. "I know you must be planning something against that male educated youth. Don’t worry, we’re in this together, and I won’t stop you."

Yes! They were the closest people, lying in the same bed. Qin Kaize’s heart trembled violently, collapsing suddenly.

"If the village chief doesn’t take action, we’ll just have to teach him a lesson."

"It’s indeed time to teach him a lesson and give him a good beating," Su Yijia’s eyes lit up with satisfaction, looking eager to try it out.

If the village chief advised them not to send him for reeducation at the brigade, they really shouldn’t let him off easily. But Gao Huabin felt this idea wasn’t good.

"If we beat him up, won’t everyone know it was us?"

"So what if they know? Is there any evidence? Without evidence, who can do anything to us? Besides, everyone in the village knows he did something wrong, so it’s not unreasonable for us to give him a secret beating," Su Yijia said stubbornly.

Qin Kaize added, "Let’s test him out and see what he’s made of. These people outside are good at pretending. Sometimes they’re smart, but they act silly to lower others’ guard."

If they want to find out if he really has a problem or just beat him to the brink of death, that’s the safest way.

"Okay! Then I’ll beat him until he’s gasping for his last breath." Gao Huabin stretched his muscles and looked at Su Yijia. "Sister-in-law, do you have a sack?"

"Yes, I’ll go get it for you right now," Su Yijia immediately got up and hurried back to the room.

In a short while, she came back with a particularly large sack, the kind that could fit Xia Pengzhan inside. One might think she intended to dispose of a whole person.

Gao Huabin wanted to shake it a bit, but Su Yijia had already heard the messy footsteps approaching and was getting closer.

It seemed like the village chief, along with the village committee secretary and the people from the Educated Youth Center, were coming back.

"Don’t shake it anymore, quickly take the sack to the room. Someone’s coming," Su Yijia spoke up.

"Someone?" Gao Huabin instinctively asked, but he was already walking into the room.

He didn’t hear any noise, but if Su Yijia said someone was coming, then someone was definitely coming.

After he put away the sack and washed the wild fruits he picked from the mountain, the village chief and his group finally entered the Educated Youth Center.

Gao Huabin checked the time on his watch. The whole process took more than five minutes.

Given the villagers’ usual pace, she could hear noises from three hundred meters away. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Well, with such keen ears, she would have been a pity not to be a detective in the team.

Su Yijia felt goosebumps all over her body under Gao Huabin’s eerie gaze. She couldn’t understand what he was thinking, but since everyone from the village had gathered, she could only ignore him and roll up her sleeves for the time being.

"Comrade Su, I’m really sorry! The ideology of this male educated youth has serious problems, which shows that our village education is not thorough enough. Originally, whether he contacted the wrong people or said those inappropriate things to you, he should have been sent for reeducation. But he and the other female educated youth from the Educated Youth Center have been secretly in a relationship for half a year. If he’s sent to the farm now, it would be difficult to handle the female educated youth. We thought that we shouldn’t ruin this female comrade’s life, so we brazenly want to discuss with you whether we can just let this matter go?" The village chief smiled awkwardly.

But in fact, he couldn’t wait to kick those two educated youth to death. Unfortunately, he was the village chief and had to bear the responsibility for the villagers.

"Just let it go?" Xia Weiguo’s voice, originally imposing, was now mixed with a cold chill, which scared the people so much that their legs went weak.

The village chief hurriedly said, "What I mean is, let him compensate Comrade Su with one hundred yuan."

One hundred yuan?! The educated youth were all shocked. They had just agreed on fifty yuan at the village chief’s house.

But seeing Xia Weiguo and several male inspectors standing beside Su Yijia, they suppressed their doubts.

Yuan Xiangning must be unwilling. After all, they still had to get married and build a house. With a hundred yuan less, they wouldn’t be able to get married before the harvest this year.

But before she could voice her objection, Xia Pengzhan firmly grabbed her.

"If you don’t want me to be sent to the farm, then shut up." The man’s tone was terrifyingly cold and ruthless, completely devoid of his usual gentleness.

Yuan Xiangning trembled in fear, staring blankly at the man beside her, as if he were a complete stranger.
