Rebirth 77: From Beachcombing to Becoming a Tycoon and Spoiling My Wife

Yang Bai looked at the crowd of people staring at the person he had invited and smiled.

"Ningning, just wait and see what happens."

"A good show? What are the Party secretaries doing, since you invited them?"

Zhang Ning was a little stunned. She knew that Yang Bai knew the daughter of the prefectural party secretary, but since Yang Bai had invited them, why did they all crowd around to see what was going on?

"Who knows?"

Yang Bai shrugged, released Sun Chuan, whose face was now swollen like a pig's head, and tossed him aside.

When Sun Chuan heard that the person was invited by Yang Bai, his mind went completely blank.

How could Yang Bai, a gambling addict, possibly know the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee, especially the Party Secretary of Anshan Prefectural Committee, who lives hundreds of kilometers away?

It's probably just nonsense he spouted to show off.

"Yang Bai, you're about to die and you're still spouting nonsense. If you were the one who invited the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee, I'd acknowledge you as my father."

Yang Bai glanced at Sun Chuan and waved his hand dismissively.

"You're not worthy to be my son. I don't have a beast like you as my son."

"you!"

Sun Chuan absolutely cannot make a move now. If the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee arrives, he will be shown the wound on his face, and then no matter what Yang Bai says, it will be useless.

With the Party Secretary backing them up, what could they do if they harassed Zhang Ning?

A bespectacled, refined-looking young man got out of the driver's seat.

Zhang Fu recognized him at a glance; it really was Xiao Li.

Zhang Fu asked in a low voice.

"Xiao Li, is the person in the car the Party Secretary of the Prefectural Committee?"

Xiao Li nodded and said, "Yes, Old Zhang, the Party Secretary came here specifically."

He didn't understand why the secretary would suddenly come here, but these were things a driver like him couldn't possibly think about.

Upon hearing the definite answer, Zhang Fu's heart pounded wildly. He rubbed his hands together, waiting for the important figure in the car to get out.

Xiao Li went to open the rear driver's side door.

A calm and reserved middle-aged man sat quietly in his seat; the phrase "imposing presence without anger" perfectly describes him.

Qiao Tie stepped down, followed by Qiao Manman, who looked around searching for Yang Bai.

As soon as Qiao Tie came down, Zhang Fu walked over with a big smile on his face.

"Secretary Qiao, hello! I'm so excited that someone as important as you could come to my house for my son's wedding."

Sun Zhigang then reached out his hand, "Secretary Qiao, I am only the Party Secretary of Houshan Village. Although our village is poor, it has good feng shui. Where would you like to rest tonight? I'll take you there. Actually, my home is quite nice."

Just then, Qiao Tie slowly walked into the courtyard.

Seeing this, the villagers present rushed forward, each hoping to take the opportunity to curry favor with the Party Secretary and make a good impression.

Faced with everyone's eager flattery, Qiao Tie remained calm and composed, merely nodding slightly in acknowledgment.

He walked straight through the crowd, his gaze quickly sweeping across the entire scene.

In an instant, they locked onto the man and woman facing off, as well as Sun Chuan, who was beaten black and blue and looked utterly disheveled in the background.

As if grasping at a straw, Sun Chuan disregarded his pain and rushed to Qiao Tie. His face was bruised and bloodshot, his eyes were red, and he pointed at Yang Bai, accusing him loudly with a sob in his voice.

"Secretary Qiao, you must uphold justice for me! Yang Bai assaulted and injured people wantonly. You must arrest him and put him on trial! He should be sentenced to at least ten or eight years!"

Qiao Tie looked in the direction he was pointing, his gaze landing on Yang Bai, and asked in a calm tone, "Yang Bai? You're Yang Bai?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Chuan's eyebrows instantly lit up, his eyes filled with smugness, and he was secretly overjoyed.

Secretary Qiao specifically called out Yang Bai, which clearly meant he had taken her words to heart. Now Yang Bai was definitely doomed!

Yang Bai smiled politely.

"Hello, Secretary Qiao. I am Yang Bai."

Qiao Tie scrutinized the young man before him and saw that this secretary was not flustered at all, but rather polite and composed.

He took out a bundle of industrial coupons.

"I heard you're short of a watch. Here are fifty industrial vouchers from my own factory as a small token of my appreciation for saving my carefree daughter."

Qiao Manman snorted, "Father, who's being cynical? I said I'm going to study hard from now on."

"Didn't Yang Bai promise to take you sea fishing if you got the score you wanted on the exam before you'd study?"

Qiao Tie said in a deep voice, "I have a headache dealing with this good-for-nothing daughter."

It's also his fault for being too busy with his career in the past and not being properly disciplined when he was left in his hometown.

"Thank you, Secretary Qiao."

Yang Bai accepted the industrial vouchers, probably because he had heard about them after his daughter's accident and returned to the county. He couldn't very well refuse them.

Everyone on the field was stunned; Secretary Qiao had come specifically for Yang Bai.

Yang Bai also saved the daughter of the prefectural party secretary.

Sun Chuan's pupils were tremored? Impossible! This is all too bizarre. How could they recognize each other hundreds of kilometers apart and save his daughter?

It's over, everything is over.

Qiao Tie looked at Sun Chuan with stern eyes and asked Yang Bai, "Little Yang, did you inflict the wound on his face?"

Although Yang Bai was the one who saved his daughter's life, he would never show favoritism if Yang Bai had actually committed the crime of assault.

Yang Bai's expression was frank and open, without the slightest hesitation. He nodded and admitted, "Yes, I hit him. But he deserved it."

He spoke with a firm tone and presented the facts clearly and logically.

"Sun Chuan, against the woman's will, secretly gave Wang Fang one hundred yuan and conspired with her to force Zhang Ning to marry him. Zhang Ning refused to the death, so Sun Chuan had evil intentions and wanted to forcibly take her away. I saw this and stopped him."

As he spoke, Yang Bai pointed to Sun Zhigang, whose face was stiff, and continued to present evidence.

"After the matter became public, Zhang Fu even called the village secretary, trying to use his power to support his son and coerce me into handing over Zhang Ning, thus forcibly fulfilling Sun Chuan's absurd idea."

Qiao Tie listened quietly to the whole story, his expression gradually turning cold, his brows and eyes becoming increasingly sharp and tense, and his aura becoming increasingly serious and intimidating.

As soon as Yang Bai finished speaking, his face turned ashen, his tone filled with fury, and he shouted angrily.

"Openly selling daughters and forcing marriage! In this new society, how can such absurd and illegal things still happen!"

Sun Zhigang was so frightened that his legs went weak. He never expected that Yang Bai would know a prefectural party secretary!

As for Zhang Fu's family, their hands and feet were ice-cold, and the fear in their eyes was beyond words.

Still brimming with lingering anger, Qiao Tie demanded, "Secretary Sun, what else do you want to say?"

Sun Zhigang trembled at the question. His son was no match for his official position. He pointed at Sun Chuan and said.

"It was all my fault, you son of a bitch! It has nothing to do with me!"

Wang Fang quickly took out the hundred yuan in her hand. Now, this hundred yuan was a hot potato; holding it would mean going to jail.

She immediately stuffed the hundred yuan into Sun Chuan's hand.

"Sun Chuan, I don't agree to this marriage. You should take it back."

Sun Chuan stared wide-eyed, feeling as if the sky was about to fall.

With his father in danger, and now even the Zhang family busy distancing themselves from him, he smiled as he held the hundred-yuan note.

"Go to hell, Wang Fang! You were the one who asked me to give you a hundred yuan to marry your daughter."

"You said your daughter was beautiful even if she were a secondhand, rotten mess. What do you mean by that now?"

Zhang Ning walked over with a cold face and slapped him.

"You disgusting maggot, you're a rapist, how dare you say that to me."

"Secretary Sun, I implore you to check his release papers. He was convicted of rape and sentenced to ten years in prison."

"But he served four years in prison before being released. I suspect the village secretary of Houshan Village got him out through connections!"

She was still in the village when Sun Chuan went in, and she knew all of this.

It's unreasonable that he was released after only four years.
