Chapter 64 Crying in grievance
Qin Song had imagined countless ways Shen Yanhui would "uphold justice," but he never expected her to be so simple and brutal as to start hitting him directly.

Ms. Zhang's employer is Lu Yibai. Even if Shen Yanhui brought people, she wouldn't be stupid enough to stand there and take a beating.

She grabbed Shen Yanhui's hair and seized the opportunity amidst Shen Yanhui's punches and kicks to slap her several times, leaving her cheeks red and her lips swollen.

Shen Yanhui grew angrier the more she hit him, so she hit him even harder, while also cursing incoherently.

"You filthy bitch, who do you think you are? You dare to come to Xingzhi's house and try to extort money from him! Do you think Xingzhi has no one backing him up?"

"I'll hit you, I'll beat you to death! You worthless wretch who was born of a mother but raised without one! I'll tear your hair out!"

"Why didn't your husband fall to his death? If he had, you could have been a widow! You clingy, persistent widow!"

Shen Yan swore loudly, and Ms. Zhang, unable to contain her anger, hit her with all her might.

Seeing that she was losing ground, she quickly called over her bodyguards, and several of them restrained Ms. Zhang's hands, preventing her from retaliating.

She resisted and struggled violently, so much so that even several bodyguards could hardly hold her down.

"..."

Qin Song and Pei's mother were completely dumbfounded.

The area in front of my house is in complete chaos, so I might as well drink it all up while it's hot.

"oops--"

"What are you doing? Let's talk this out instead of resorting to violence!"

Only then did Pei's mother realize what was happening, and she quickly ran forward to try and break up the fight.

Shen Yanhui, enraged, shoved Pei's mother aside with a flick of her wrist.

"Get out of my way! This bitch dared to fight back! I'm going to teach her a lesson today!"

"Shen Yanhui!" Qin Song, her pregnant belly protruding, strode forward, grabbed Shen Yanhui's arm, and roared angrily, "Are you crazy? Don't you want to see what you're doing?"

"I'm not crazy!" Shen Yanhui ignored Qin Song's pregnancy, grabbed her shoulders and pushed her back forcefully.

Qin Song lost his footing and staggered back several steps.

"Xiao Song!" Pei's mother rushed over to support her, her eyes fixed anxiously on her stomach, her face pale with fright.

"Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Qin Song waved his hand, not daring to approach the crazed Shen Yan Hui any further: "Shen Yan Hui, tell your men to release her immediately! If you dare to lay a hand on her again, I'll call the police!"

Shen Yanhui sneered and slapped Ms. Zhang twice across the face: "Go ahead and report it. I'm the daughter of the Shen Group. Which policeman would dare to punish me?"

“…You’re fucking insane.” Qin Song didn’t waste any more words with her and immediately took out his phone to dial 110 to report the crime.

Shen Yanhui was not afraid at all, and grabbed Ms. Zhang's hair, raising her hand as if to hit her again.

"Shen Yanhui!"

The nature of the situation had completely changed at this point. Qin Song was in a real bind and decisively made a video call to Pei Xingzhi.

Before the call was even connected, Qin Song pointed the camera directly at Shen Yanhui, whose hair was disheveled.

“Pei Xingzhi hates people who like to fight. If you’re not afraid of him seeing you like this, then go ahead.”

"..."

Although Shen Yanhui was insane, Pei Xingzhi was still able to keep her in check. She stared at Qin Song's phone screen, and the second after Pei Xingzhi answered the video call, she shoved the phone back into Qin Song's arms.

"Xiao Song".

Pei Xingzhi, on the other end of the video call, was unaware that his home was about to explode. Seeing that Qin Song rarely video-called him, he even chose a better angle to answer.

"Have you had lunch? Why did you suddenly decide to video call me?"

"..." Qin Song couldn't laugh. She sighed repeatedly, holding her forehead, and her first words were desperate: "Help me, Pei Xingzhi, please come back quickly, things have changed at home."

"What?" Pei Xingzhi's expression changed. Before he could even ask what had happened, he grabbed his car keys and ran out of the studio.

"Don't worry, Xiao Song, I'll be right back."

Qin Song shook his head: "Don't come back. Just go to the police station. We'll see each other in jail."

Because of Pei Xingzhi's brief appearance, Shen Yanhui's manic state subsided somewhat. At least, she no longer allowed the bodyguards behind her to control Ms. Zhang.

Ms. Zhang, her hair disheveled and battered, collapsed to the ground, wailing loudly.

Shen Yan loosened her ponytail, hastily combed through her tangled hair with her fingers, and stubbornly insisted, "Beating her up made her much more obedient... I didn't do anything wrong, Xingyi definitely won't blame me. He'll only blame his wife for being useless."

"..." Qin Song was so frustrated that he didn't want to say a single word to Shen Yan.

She had just called the police once, and Ms. Zhang called the police again shortly after being released. The police arrived in less than ten minutes and took everyone at the scene back to the police station.

As she expected, from the moment Shen Yanhui ordered her bodyguards to take action, the nature of the fight completely changed.

Ms. Zhang has become the complete victim, and Shen Yanhui may be detained.

But Ms. Zhang was not satisfied with the outcome. Sitting in the mediation room of the police station, she pointed at Qin Song and cried out, "Officer, this woman is an accomplice! The group that beat me knew her; they're all in cahoots! They conspired to kill me!"

"You can't just detain that one; she has to be arrested too!"

Qin Song: "..."

She's already numb; no amount of accusation can elicit a response from her now.

The police officer handling the case looked at her stomach and said helplessly, "This lady is pregnant, so we can't detain her. Besides, the woman who hit you wasn't called by her; this matter has little to do with her."

"I do not believe!"

Ms. Zhang shouted and stomped her feet, "They're in cahoots! They're accomplices!"

"Xiao Song!"

Pei Xing was stuck in traffic and it took him more than half an hour to finally arrive at the police station.

Qin Song felt a lump in her throat when she heard his voice.

"Pei Xingzhi." She got up from the chair and, with the help of Pei's mother, went outside to greet Pei Xingzhi.

"Xiao Song." Pei Xingzhi pulled her into his arms, anxiously checking her over. "Are you alright? Did they hurt you?"

Qin Song had been upset all morning, and seeing Pei Xingzhi now only made him feel wronged and sad.

She grasped Pei Xingzhi's hand and answered him in a trembling voice, "Does emotional trauma count? I'm really having a terrible headache."

"It's alright, it's alright." Pei Xingzhi cupped her face in his hands, first gently rubbing her cheeks, then pulling her into his arms to comfort her tenderly, feeling extremely sorry for her.

"Don't cry, Xiaosong. I'm here. I'll handle the rest. Don't worry about it."

Qin Song closed her eyes and wiped her tears on Pei Xingzhi's clothes: "Mmm."

Pei Xingzhi released her after holding her for a short while, gently wiping away her tears with his fingers. "It's alright, Xiao Song, I'm here. Go sit down and rest. I'll take care of the rest."

Qin Song didn't have the strength to speak, so he just nodded in agreement.

"Mom." Pei Xingzhi put his arm around her and handed her over to his mother. "You take care of Xiaosong first. I'll go inside and find the police."

Mother Pei breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay."

This old hag is too fierce for even a system to handle.

[One more chapter coming soon! I expect to be able to post an extra chapter as compensation after the 11th. I've been incredibly busy lately, and haven't been feeling well! Sorry to keep you all waiting. I'll post the extra chapter as soon as I've gathered up the manuscript!]
