Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 38 I know I’m scared
"Woof woof woof!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Dahuang immediately blocked Zhang Guihua's way, baring his teeth and threateningly.

Xue Rui has always been by Lin Ruoxi's side and is not afraid of what she might do.

It was just the appearance of Dahuang that brightened his eyes. He thought that the dog was a good one and was eager to protect its master. It was worth raising him in vain.

"brute!"

Zhang Guihua was furious and picked up a stick from the ground, wanting to beat Dahuang severely.

Just when Xue Rui was about to rescue Da Huang, a man squeezed in from the crowd.

"Osmanthus fragrans!"

The man snatched the stick from Zhang Guihua's hand and slapped her.

"Li Jiansheng, you dare to hit me! I..."

Before Zhang Guihua could finish her words, she was slapped hard in the face again.

Zhang Guihua wanted to curse again, but saw Li Jiansheng's hand raised high again. She hurriedly lowered her head and shrank her neck without saying a word.

After being slapped a few times, Zhang Guihua's eyes became much clearer.

She knew her man's temper. Normally, no matter how she made a fuss, he would not care about it. But if things really got serious, she would be the one to back off.

Xue Rui was amazed at what he saw. Zhang Guihua didn't look like a shrew at all. She looked like a little woman instead.

"Damn, there is always someone stronger than you. Are you playing chess here?" Ren Jun complained.

After Li Jiansheng looked at his wife, he smiled shyly and approached Lin Ruoxi:
"Xixi, I'm sorry you were wronged. Why didn't you tell me about this?"

He only found out today that such a thing had happened in his family. His son is studying at a university in Chang'an. He just kept calling him to ask him to go home and see his family, saying that Zhang Guihua had caused a big trouble.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw that one of his fruit trees had been cut down.

He tried his best to persuade the workers, even buying them a pack of cigarettes, before they reluctantly agreed to wait until after lunch before starting work.

"Where are Xixi's family members?" Li Jiansheng looked around and walked towards Ren Jun.

Ren Jun waved his hand and pointed at Xue Rui, meaning that he wanted to find Xue Rui for something.

"Well... we know we were wrong, and we will definitely compensate Xixi. As for the matter of the orchard..."

Li Jiansheng has a simple and honest face and stutters when he speaks. He looks like an honest farmer.

He was surprised that the person in charge here was actually a child.

"I don't accept mediation, just like some people never realize their mistakes." Xue Rui said coldly, without even looking at Li Jiansheng.

He basically knew this family well. The father and son were decent people, but it was a pity that they had a shrew.

"Guihua, admit your mistake!" Li Jiansheng scolded.

"Me?" Zhang Guihua hesitated, and suddenly saw Li Jiansheng's fists clenched stiffly.

There were two slap marks on her face, and she walked to Xue Rui reluctantly: "I'm sorry!"

"Too stiff, too perfunctory, and what's the point of you apologizing to me?" Xue Rui said coldly.

Zhang Guihua looked unhappy. She knew everything but just didn't want to admit her mistake.

Her son also advised her to apologize to Lin Ruoxi.

Looking around, it seemed like everyone was waiting.

She had no choice but to walk up to Lin Ruoxi and bow her head and say, "I'm sorry."

When Lin Ruoxi saw Zhang Guihua coming, she subconsciously wanted to step back. She was very afraid of this woman.

But when I heard her apologizing to me, I felt happy, but also inexplicably unhappy.

Lin Ruoxi didn't realize that it was Zhang Guihua's attitude that was too bad.

Xue Rui walked closer and whispered in Zhang Guihua's ear:

"If you have this attitude, I will cut down the orchard."

"What you did will also appear in the newspapers in Chang'an. You can pay to put it in the newspapers. Send it to your son's school and put up a banner. I want to see if your college student can continue to study."

Xue Rui said this with a smile and patted Zhang Guihua's shoulder gently.

Zhang Guihua couldn't stop shaking. Xue Rui was too cruel. Not only did he want to destroy her family's livelihood, but he also wanted to ruin her son.

Only one day passed from the time Xue Rui appeared to the time the orchard belonged to him.

She didn't doubt whether Xue Rui could do it. There was a million-level luxury car parked at the door. This kind of person was not from the same world as her. Her throwing tantrums was useless to the young man in front of her.

A strong sense of fear rose in Zhang Guihua's heart. Looking at Xue Rui's sunny smile, she felt a chill down her spine.

"Don't want to?" Xue Rui said with a smile.

Zhang Guihua shuddered, fell to her knees in front of Lin Ruoxi with a plop, and slapped herself repeatedly.

"Xixi, I'm a beast! I'm sorry!"

"I'm not a human being, I'm a disaster!"

……

The crowd watching was also amazed. It was the first time they saw a shrew like Zhang Guihua admit her mistake.

Moreover, the sincerity of the attitude is touching.

No one tried to stop Zhang Guihua. In the quiet yard, there were only the sounds of slaps and curses.

Zhang Guihua was crying and her nose was bleeding all over the floor.

Her face was swollen and she kept slapping herself. She was numb and didn't know whether she should stop.

Lin Ruoxi tried to stop it several times, but was stopped by Xue Rui.

Lin Ruoxi looked embarrassed and whispered to Xue Rui: "Xue Rui, she...she knows she is wrong, let her stop."

Xue Rui thought that this girl was really soft-hearted. She just slapped him a few times. Compared to the grievances you have suffered for so long and the false accusations you have suffered, this little injury is nothing.
"She doesn't know she's wrong, she's just scared." Xue Rui pinched Lin Ruoxi's nose.

If Xue Rui hadn't used drastic measures to force her, people like Zhang Guihua would never admit their mistakes.

"Oh, young man, it's almost time. If you continue like this, something bad will happen!" an old man advised.

Many people nodded in agreement. Zhang Guihua's current appearance was really miserable.

If an uninformed person came, he would not be able to recognize that the face that looked like a pig's head was Zhang Guihua herself.

Xue Rui also felt that it was about right.

He was pleased, the onlookers were pleased, and the most important thing was that Lin Ruoxi calmed down.

"Okay, I won't cut down the tree. Let your man talk to me." Xue Rui still had a sullen face.

"Let's all go back. It's almost time for lunch. Let's go." Village Chief Hua waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop joining in the fun.

"Hey, this watermelon is really sweet today." Someone said while eating a watermelon.

"That's right. If there's a show to watch, the melon will taste good."

……

When the crowd dispersed, it was time to discuss business.

Xue Rui, Li Jiansheng, Village Chief Hua and others were discussing the ownership of the land in Lin Ruoxi's house.

Zhang Guihua also listened outside the door with a curious look on her face.

"Young man, can you sublease this land to us?" Li Jiansheng begged.

"Okay, fifty thousand a year." Xue Rui made a big request.

"What!" Zhang Guihua couldn't help but scream. Xue Rui's price was too high! Almost dozens of times the market price.

"Go back! We are talking about business, why are you meddling in our affairs?" Li Jiansheng scolded.

Xue Rui did it on purpose. He noticed Zhang Guihua watching him early in the morning.

"Young man, we are all villagers and it's not easy for us. Just give me a real price." Village Chief Hua said soothingly.

"Is my Xixi so easy? You occupied Xixi's land without even signing a contract, and made Xixi work as a free laborer." Xue Rui said unhappily.

"We will compensate Xixi. We were wrong." Li Jiansheng said with his head down.

Lin Ruoxi and the old lady listened on the side.

When Lin Ruoxi heard "my Xixi", her heart was filled with warmth. It was the first time someone spoke for her like this.

And it was in this tone, the words were very natural and intimate.

It was as if she really had such a brother.
