The male supporting character was actually myself.

Many light sources were simultaneously focused on He Yongqiang, who had already fainted from the pain. Blood was still gushing out, his body was covered in blood, and his legs were a bloody mess.

"My son! My poor son!" Qian Shuandi collapsed in the yard not far from He Yongqiang after breaking both legs. She was screaming in pain when she saw this scene. She was so frightened and angry that she couldn't catch her breath and fainted.

A series of hurried, muffled footsteps echoed on the rooftop. Not wanting to miss the excitement, the onlookers climbed down the ladder from He Yongqiang's house and entered through the gate of He Jiangchen's house, squeezing into the crowd to watch up close.

He Gousheng's mind went blank. He didn't know how he squeezed to the front with the others, nor did he know how to stop the bleeding with incense ash and tobacco leaves under the guidance of the village barefoot doctor.

He just stared blankly at his son lying in a pool of blood, his mind filled with the thunderous pronouncements: "His manhood is gone," "It's been bitten off," "There's no hope left"...

"Honey, were you scared? I'm back, open the door." Jiang Chen glanced coldly at the chaotic scene in the yard, then stepped forward, knocked on the door, and gently comforted her, "It's all taken care of outside, everything's alright now."

Liao Yuzhou's heart pounded as he listened to the chaotic noises coming from the courtyard, wondering what had happened.

When she heard her husband's familiar and gentle voice, a surge of strong emotions, including fear, grievance, and lingering apprehension, welled up inside her. Her hands trembled as she unlocked the door with her key, and as soon as she opened it, she saw Jiang Chen standing at the door with a concerned expression.

Unable to hold back her grievances any longer, she burst into tears and threw herself into the other person's arms.

"It's alright, everything's been resolved. I'll never let you be all alone again." He stroked her long, fragrant hair, his voice soft and gentle. "Don't be afraid, I'll take you with me wherever I go after I come back."

Liao Yuzhou cried so hard she could barely breathe, "Waaah~ Please don't leave me, I'm so scared without you..."

Chapter Fifty-Three: A Beautiful Night

The crowd of onlookers in the courtyard was quite busy. On one side, they were watching the once-in-a-century physical castration; on the other side, they were watching the frightened young wife nestled in her husband's arms, grieving.

Some people, eager to stir up trouble, shouted that the Party Secretary should deal with He Yongqiang, that scoundrel, according to the village rules.

Some people gathered together and whispered and mocked He Yongqiang for wetting his pants and losing his manhood;

Some people, out of curiosity, chased after the dog to see where it had taken the thing.

Others were busy helping to treat He Yongqiang and his mother, Qian Shuandi. After all, the village chief and the village party secretary had arrived, and they couldn't just stand by and watch them die there...

After a busy day, things finally came to a temporary end. The village chief and the village party secretary, their faces as black as the bottom of a pot, sent everyone who was waiting to watch the show back to sleep. They then convened a collective meeting with the village's elders who were in charge of affairs.

"It was my fault tonight. I shouldn't have left you alone at home." After the crowd dispersed, Jiang Chen didn't bother to clean up the mess and carried the tearful Liao Yuzhou to his room.

He felt guilty and sorry for the good girl who treated him with all her heart.

From the very beginning, I approached the people and events in the mission world with the mindset of completing a task, which sometimes made me too calculating and overly rational.

For example, tonight I'll follow the task and take Dahuang out, leaving her at home as bait.

Despite having made thorough preparations to ensure her safety, experiencing all this in the middle of the night was undoubtedly a huge shock to the innocent girl. The mission was accomplished beyond expectations, all within his calculations, but how could he possibly make up for Liao Yuzhou's fear and anxiety?

"No, don't say that." She placed her soft fingers on his lips, her voice slightly nasal. "You don't need to blame yourself so much. It's He Yongqiang's fault, not yours."

I'm an adult. What kind of wife is tied to her husband's waistband every day after marriage?

Even if it's not tonight or tomorrow night, as long as He Yongqiang harbors malicious intentions, we can guard against him for a while, but how can we guard against him forever?

You've done a great job. New windows, new curtains, even the doors have been replaced with the newest and sturdiest ones. You've taken very good care of me. I…”

Her heart, which had just calmed down, started pounding again, and her breathing became rapid.

Nestled so close to him, this was the most intimate and prolonged contact they had ever had since their marriage. After the extreme panic, her senses had heightened dramatically, and Liao Yuzhou felt a fire surging uncontrollably in her chest; she no longer wanted to suppress it!

"Jiang Chen~" Her soft, graceful body, which had been leaning against his chest, suddenly broke free. She wrapped her arms around his broad, strong shoulders, and her trembling lips pressed against his moist, soft body.

Warm and smooth.

gentle.

Soothing.

A drop of water seeps into the hard rock, using its all-encompassing resilience and gentleness to bloom quietly into a flower. Beneath the petals, countless strands intertwine and nourish the rock, making it delicate and gradually moist, as if it were coming to life.

"Do you love me?" Jiang Chen whispered in her ear amidst the heavy breathing in the darkness.

Liao Yuzhou, whether nervous, shy, or excited, pressed against his strong chest, her voice trembling, "I love you, I fell in love with you the moment I first saw you... It's like we've known each other for a very, very long time, it's like I've been waiting for you all this time..."

The soft murmurs stirred his heart.

Perhaps it was because the Horcruxes were recording too much information, making it increasingly difficult for him to integrate into the fake mission world; or perhaps it was the subtle hints of crisis from the bugs, constantly reminding him to grow up as soon as possible. So he dared not immerse himself in the peaceful life of the mission world, but now he could only feel that his mind was blank.

"Don't think about anything right now, just enjoy everything you have, okay?"

"Nothing can stop me from loving you."

"Even if I have to cross thousands of mountains and rivers and face crowds, I will come as long as you wait for me..."

…………

It seemed as if many sounds were mixed together in the unreal dream, immersed in the watery night.

Outside the window, in the yard, Big Yellow heard some rustling sounds of birdsong. It alertly pricked up its ears and looked around for a few seconds before obediently lying down, shaking its ears, and going to sleep.

The little white cat perched on the wall, peeking into the neighboring yard, wondering if it should try something different.

In the vast fields not far away, new, robust rice seedlings quietly peek out, their thick, white roots digging deep into the moist, nurturing soil as they explore a new world. These vigorous seedlings easily break through the soil's barrier, stretching their bodies and swaying gently in the wind.

"Tengling~" A bird chirped crisply among the leaves as it flew into the distance;

A bright star flashed across the starry sky, trailing a long, luminous tail as it pierced the night, leaving behind a trail of starlight and brilliance before finally fading into tranquility.

As the moon slowly sank and the eastern sky brightened with the first light of dawn, a new day began in the fields and mountains.

"Stab!"

Jiang Chen pulled back the heavy blackout curtains and peered into the yard through the white lace curtains. The yard was a mess, and it looked like it would take half a day to clean up.

The beauty lying beside her was clearly awake, a faint smile on her lips as she closed her eyes and curled up in the soft blankets, pretending to still be asleep.

"What would you like for breakfast?" He looked at her fair and rosy cheeks and couldn't help but gently pinch them with his hand.

Seeing that her disguise had been exposed, Liao Yuzhou shyly pulled the blanket up with both hands to cover her face, and then used her slender legs to trip his waist, peeking at him from the side with her eyes. Her voice was so gentle it could melt anyone's heart, "I'm your wife, so I should be the one asking you what you want to eat and making it for you for every meal."

“I’m a better cook, and…” Jiang Chen leaned down and lifted the blanket to tidy her messy hair, smiling gently, “I can’t bear to see my beautiful wife, who’s as pretty as a flower, cooking over a fire. The fumes are bad for her skin.”

From now on, I'll be responsible for cooking, farming, and making money; you'll be responsible for studying, being beautiful, and spending money.

After a night of commotion, she was sore all over that she didn't have the strength to get up and cook. Liao Yuzhou looked at him with a flushed face and seductive eyes, a hint of regret in her voice. "Our beautiful new house is now a complete mess. We'll have to make do with your place for our wedding night. If I had known this would happen, you shouldn't have left that night!"

"Well, how about I go and redo everything in a bit, and we can have another wedding night tonight?" His wife said coquettishly, and Jiang Chen had no choice but to try to salvage the situation.

She blushed as she recalled the intimacy of the previous night, curled up in the comfortable blankets, and murmured "Mmm" without hesitation.

Jiang Chen got up and washed up. Looking at the birds chirping in the treetops in the yard and the brightly blooming newly transplanted flowers in the small garden, her worries disappeared.

Sometimes, being able to go with the flow and live in the moment is a kind of happiness!

"Brother Chen, have you eaten yet?!"

The young couple had just finished breakfast when the group of four hooligans arrived. As soon as the blond-haired guy entered the yard, he frowned and muttered about the gossip he had heard from his uncle.

“I heard the village chief trying to suppress this matter. He said there’s some kind of inspection going on and some kind of advanced village selection. If He Yongqiang’s matter comes out during this time, our Qilizhuang will not be eligible for the selection.”

"Brother Chen, what do you suggest we do? We can't just suffer in silence!"

"Exactly! This is outrageous! We can't let this go unless we convict He Yongqiang of hooliganism and execute him!"

"But what if the village chief and the village party secretary both want to settle things quietly?"

"Let's go to the county town to report He Yongqiang for indecent assault..."

…………

Chapter 54 Waiting to Catch Them All

The four thugs offered a flurry of suggestions, while Jiang Chen frowned slightly and remained silent.

“Host, the protagonist this time is so tenacious, the script team is really supporting him!” The little white cat was also chattering on his shoulder, “The new plot is too outrageous.”

Even after being castrated and becoming a eunuch, He Yongqiang still hasn't stopped causing trouble.

Qian Shuandi felt hopeless after losing her son, so she limped to the matchmaker Wang to discuss buying a wife for the family. After the marriage, she arranged for He Gousheng to sleep with the new wife at night, and after the child was born, she planned to raise He Yongqiang as her son, saying it was to carry on the family line.

The most important point is this: He Yongqiang borrowed the money from you to buy his wife, and he has no intention of paying it back.

This newlywed bride is no ordinary woman. She is beautiful and speaks foreign languages. She was originally the daughter of a wealthy family in Kyoto. While shopping, she was spotted, knocked unconscious, dragged away, and sold by human traffickers in a secluded alley.

After becoming pregnant and giving birth, this abducted new bride took on the role of the original female lead, working hard to support her family and going through many twists and turns before finally contacting her family. She led He Yongqiang's entire family to great heights and achieved great success.

It seems the script team also knows that the host is not someone to be trifled with, so they simply skipped over you two to avoid causing trouble.

After becoming a eunuch, He Yongqiang developed a mental disorder and constantly abused his wife. Perhaps influenced by his past glory, his wife remained devoted to him even after being beaten half to death. In the end, He Yongqiang amassed a large fortune and, with his father-in-law's help, became an official..."

The little white cat flipped through the script and spat at the end, "Pah! What a load of rubbish! The protagonist, He Yongqiang, is supposed to be 'physically disabled but determined'? Don't insult those positive words!"

While the others were whispering, Jiang Chen glanced at the script.

Judging by the timeline, the poor abducted girl should have already been knocked unconscious and dragged away by now, laying the groundwork for Yongqiang to "buy a wife".

Unfortunately, the plot only briefly touched on this part, leaving the specific time, location, and subsequent resale methods unknown. Even if one wanted to call the police for help, there was no clue how.

It seems that the only way to rescue the innocent girl is to wait for the matchmaker to take Qian Shuandi to the meeting place.

No wonder the bugs call He Yongqiang a jinx; if they don't deal with him quickly, who knows how many more people will be directly or indirectly harmed.

However, this is a good opportunity to make He Yongqiang suffer an irreparable fate!

With the entire mission world secretly revolving around him, and he unable to take action against him, he could take advantage of the situation when the man was compromising his own survival in accordance with the plot and seize the opportunity to kick him while he was down and wipe him out in one fell swoop...

"We definitely can't get charged with hooliganism." After having a plan in mind, he waved his hand, dismissing Huang Mao and his gang's plan. "We don't have any evidence."

Liao Yuzhou looked bewildered. "He...he saw it with so many people, how come there's no evidence?"

Jiang Chen patiently explained, "Because when the incident happened, you clearly shouted 'Catch the thief!' instead of 'Catch the hooligan!' The difference between the two is huge."

If you want to shout "Catch the hooligan!", then we'll just take him to the police station; there are plenty of villagers who can testify.

However, from your perspective, catching a thief means that He Yongqiang was merely breaking in and attempting to steal something.

Different offenses result in different punishments.

The determination of a thief's guilt depends primarily on the extent of the loss. Last night, He Yongqiang at most broke a piece of glass; he didn't even touch any other valuables. In the end, he'll most likely just receive a warning, a lesson, and a fine, which is meaningless and insignificant.

"Well, once he's in our yard, we get to decide what he does!" the skinny woman retorted defiantly. "We can just insist he was being a pervert, and the police can't do anything about it!"

"Don't be so presumptuous, okay? Hooliganism is a serious crime punishable by death. The police can't just convict someone arbitrarily; they will definitely conduct a thorough interrogation and question the witnesses."

Do you think there are many people in our village who wouldn't feel their legs spinning when they enter the police station?

"When we interrogate him, he'll spill everything from last night, no doubt. We all came here to catch a thief; turning it into catching a hooligan isn't something we can decide with just a few words."
