Chapter 467: Two Words: Classy!

~20 min read 3,856 words

"Yin Ninghua, you really don't care about saving face at all, do you!" Li Changming roared there!

"Before, you called the police for stalking me, and our divorce turned into such a mess; haven't I changed? I did the laundry, I mopped the floors, I did so much—was it all for nothing!"

"You yelled at my mother, you didn't come home to cook, and now you're putting on this act. What do you want? If you don't want to live together anymore, then let's not!"

He felt a surge of anger rushing straight to his head.

Some men are just like this; regardless of anything else, face seems more important than anything.

Li Changming felt right now that his face had been completely lost.

Because all those packed suitcases were placed outside, and neighbors coming and going could see them.

His own wife was trying to kick his relatives out, and for a face-conscious man like Li Changming, this was simply unacceptable!

Facing the furious Li Changming, Yin Dajie said naturally, "I haven't wanted to live with you for a long time. You were the one who insisted on clinging to me. Does doing a few days of housework count as changing?"

"I married into this family and have done housework for over twenty years; did you ever say anything then?"

Behind them, Li Changming's mother, the old lady, started crying right there: "What is going on? If you didn't want me to stay, you could have just said so. Why do you have to be like this?"

"If I'm affecting you, then should I just go die?"

It would have been better if she hadn't said that; once she did, it was truly adding fuel to the fire!

Li Changming roared directly: "Nobody is leaving today! I am still a member of this household!"

"You don't want to live together anymore, right? Fine, then nobody will!"

As he spoke, he casually grabbed a teacup nearby and smashed it hard onto the floor.

He picked up whatever he could see in the house and smashed it, cursing while he did so.

Neighbors across the way just watched; they had tried to persuade him during past arguments, but it was useless.

Moreover, Yin Dajie had said later that there was no need to persuade him; the more you persuade a person like this, the more worked up they get, acting as if they are so tough, when in reality they are just cowardly bullies who only dare to act fierce at home.

"Smash away, smash whatever you want. But I have to tell you, today, they must leave. This is my house, and I simply do not want them staying here!"

After she finished this sentence, Li Changming, who had still been thinking about that protection order in his heart, could no longer hold back; he rushed up and kicked her straight in the head!

Yin Dajie didn't dodge and took the kick head-on.

But this was far from over, because Li Changming had gone completely mad, cursing, "Then let's not live together! I'll beat you to death today, and we'll die together!"

Then came a flurry of wild punches and kicks, as if the person in front of him wasn't his wife, but an enemy with deep-seated hatred.

Just at this moment, someone suddenly rushed in through the door and threw the crazed Li Changming to the side with one shove.

"Who the hell are you, daring to meddle in my business? I'll f*** you up, do you believe I'll kill you along with her!"

Cursing, Li Changming looked over and immediately saw two tall, burly men standing in front of Yin Dajie.

And behind them, there was a man who looked very professional, holding a video camera.

One of the burly men looked very familiar; he was the security guard brother from Tenda.

Only, this time the security guard brother wasn't wearing a uniform; he was wearing a black T-shirt, revealing the tattoos on his arms, his face looking fierce.

Beside the security guard brother was the bald Song Xiaofei, who had joined Tenda some time ago to work as a security guard.

Zhou Yi had considered that this brother was actually a decent person and decided to give him a hand; if he let him go on like that, who knew when he might end up in prison.

So he let him come to Tenda to work as a security guard.

Tenda's security guards, like the cleaning staff, all signed contracts and received all the benefits they were entitled to. Song Xiaofei was naturally very happy; now, whoever President Zhou said to deal with, he would deal with!

It was he who had just thrown Li Changming aside; to Song Xiaofei, Li Changming was just a little chick.

He said with a look of disdain, "You said you wanted to hit who? Hit me? Come on, I'm standing right here. Try touching me and see what happens!"

He had spent so much time in society that he had seen many men like Li Changming.

They only dared to beat their wives and children at home, but once they went outside and saw someone tougher, they wouldn't even dare to let out a fart.

The security guard brother also didn't take the other party seriously at all; when President Zhou recruited security guards, he recruited those who could be useful at critical moments.

Men like these burly guys were all meant for getting things done.

To deal with scoundrels, they had specifically recruited an old man who used to pull insurance scams on the street—the kind where if you dared to push him, you'd have to sell your house.

This is what you call professional!

Usually, they were just kept on the payroll, and used when needed.

Zhou Yi, like Lawyer Fang, didn't consider himself a good person, nor did he want to be one.

Sometimes the law cannot solve problems, so you must have some necessary means.

Having a knife and not using it is one thing, but not having a knife in your hand is another.

That old man was truly grateful to have met a good master like Zhou Mouren; he arrived the earliest and left the latest every day, being extremely responsible.

You would never imagine that this old man used to play dirty tricks...

Facing the two burly men, who looked like the fierce, street-hardened type, Li Changming couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

"What are you doing? Th-this is my house. I've called the police! I'm telling you, the country is currently cracking down on organized crime; if you dare to touch me..."

Song Xiaofei curled his lips and said, "No need for that, we've already called the police. Besides, you can complain about the crackdown on organized crime all you want."

"We were sent by the Company to protect President Yin, and our entry into the house was also approved by President Yin!"

Procedurally, there would be absolutely no issues. Tenda's motto was to always have a legitimate reason for action; if they were caught in a legal trap, the people in the Legal Department might as well quit early.

Yin Dajie climbed up from the floor; the blows from just now had left her bruised and swollen, but it didn't matter.

She had no other thoughts now; she just wanted to get the other party locked up!

As for whether the father going to prison would affect the child... please, she, Yin Dajie, was someone who had already been in for "further studies" herself.

One more or one less didn't make much of a difference; it was a small matter.

This was what Yin Dajie thought to herself. Was there a feeling of entrapment? Of course there was.

But the Judicial Interpretation for the Personal Safety Protection Order already had clear regulations: if the respondent claims the applicant is at fault, it does not affect the protection order.

To put it bluntly, if Zhang San's wife cheated and was caught by Zhang San, but the other party had previously applied for a protection order and succeeded...

Zhang San can use any other method to protect his rights, but he cannot commit domestic violence.

This example is, of course, a bit extreme, because in a normal situation like this, the Court would not issue you a protection order...

Everything still has to be judged based on the specific circumstances of the case.

Li Changming dared not move; he truly dared not move. Song Xiaofei judged it very accurately; you could call this kind of man who bullies his own family a coward, and it would be perfectly fine.

When beating his wife, he was full of energy, but in front of outsiders, he became a quail.

"You've done your beating, but I'll say it again: ask these people of yours to leave. I don't welcome them here!"

"As for you, you are still my husband until we divorce, so you can live here, no problem!"

No one spoke, because no one knew what to do.

The scene was very tense, and finally, the police officers arrived.

To tell the truth, police officers get a headache when they encounter this kind of thing. People always say the police just try to smooth things over, but in this situation, what can you say the police could do when they arrive?

There is no way around it; forcibly make Li Changming's relatives leave? They would receive a pile of complaints the next day.

So they could only persuade, asking Yin Dajie to hold off for a moment and give them some time to find a place to live.

Both sides take a step back...

Yin Dajie indicated that she was still giving the police officers face and could give them five days to find a place, but if they hadn't left when the time was up, then they shouldn't blame her!

After handling this, the next issue was Yin Dajie being subjected to domestic violence again; this still had to be taken back to make a record.

Afterwards, Yin Dajie also needed to go to the hospital for another examination.

Procedures, after all, must be completed; what should be there must be there.

Inside the Police Station, Li Changming was making all sorts of excuses, saying it was because his wife acted that way that he had no choice but to take action.

But this was already the third time he had committed domestic violence recently!

We always say that three is a magical number in law; once it reaches three times, even if there is no specific regulation, the situation will be different.

Not to mention, this time Yin Dajie was kicked in the face, her nose was broken, and her lip was split; the situation was relatively serious.

Without further ado, Li Changming, who had just finished his previous Detention, was subjected to Administrative Detention again, for another five days.

"On what grounds? She was the one who started it; on what grounds do I still have to be detained? On what grounds..."

Li Changming's voice was very loud, but it was useless. He could file for Administrative Reconsideration or Administrative Litigation, but those were things to be done after the fact.

For Li Changming's relatives, this was truly a bolt from the blue!

The two had been married for so long that they had long felt this house was their home, and whoever wanted to come and stay could stay.

As a result, now that the other party suddenly said they couldn't stay, they felt as if they had suffered a terrible grievance.

This is actually normal, because many people are like this; if they can't take advantage, they feel they are at a loss...

Then Li Changming was detained again, which made them even more unable to accept it.

They wanted to go and scold Yin Dajie, but had no chance, as she went straight back to the Company after the hospital, so they could only talk and curse about it there with the neighbors.

But the neighbors agreed on the surface while discussing this family behind their backs; when a family doesn't treat the mistress of the house as the mistress, then don't blame her for not treating you as family.

A family isn't just something you say with your mouth; you have to show it!

Only the old lady kept saying there, "Son, when will this ever end?"

After all, in their view, it was just beating his wife; being detained for a few days was the limit, and even then, they were thinking of going to make a scene.

In the words of Li Changming's mother, who hadn't been beaten before? Husbands and wives arguing and fighting was normal; making it so serious was blowing things out of proportion.

Li Changming entered the Detention House again, the familiar place.

The big brother in the Detention House rubbed his eyes and looked at Li Changming, who was brought in by the police, with a blank expression.

"You guys look, is that Li Changming? I'm not seeing things, am I? Or did I remember the time wrong? Why do I remember him just leaving this morning?"

Someone next to him said, "Big brother, that is Li Changming; he did indeed leave this morning."

That was strange; in this day and age, there are people who like to come in?

Although a certain professional once said that the people inside speak very nicely, and arriving inside is like arriving home.

But, saying that is one thing, this place is definitely not a good place!

After Li Changming came in, a bunch of people went up to gossip; in here, only gossip could slightly relieve their worries.

From beginning to end, it seemed Li Changming's family didn't remember there was any protection order at all. Wasn't that thing just for show? So what if I hit her? Now that I'm already detained, they can't possibly do anything else to me, right!

A bunch of those in Detention learned about Li Changming's situation, and a "know-it-all" who looked very knowledgeable began to analyze it.

"At most, this is just this Detention. Don't worry, our country has regulations: One Crime Two Punishments. Since they detained you, there won't be anything else."

The way he said it sounded very professional, so Li Changming hurriedly asked for advice, and this "know-it-all" simply began to popularize the law; it was so professional...

Professional enough that he ended up inside himself.

Just like those guys in the Detention House who were scamming death row inmates; they were truly very professional.

After getting the answer, Li Changming calmed down; five days, that's all, just stay.

Of course, Li Changming did not know that just after he was detained, before the workday ended, Zhou Xinran had already arrived at the Guangming District Court.

What Fang Dazhuang had to do was the personal protection order, so he was too lazy to go to the Criminal Private Prosecution after the other party violated it, and handed it directly to Zhou Xinran.

As for himself, he wanted to write a good article to analyze the current status of protection orders after the issuance of the Judicial Interpretation based on the case.

He aimed to make this case the first case of a protection order after the new Judicial Interpretation, a classic case of Case Interpretation.

That would give Fang Dazhuang a great sense of satisfaction!

After so much time had passed, many people in the Jingzhou legal circle also knew that Zhou Xinran was Fang Dazhuang's apprentice.

Though called an assistant, she was actually being trained according to the standards of an apprentice.

Therefore, when Zhou Xinran arrived at the Guangming District Court, someone also greeted her, asking what case she had this time.

In front of outsiders, Zhou Xinran was still very dignified, maintaining a professional smile: "Just a small case, refusal to execute a judgment or ruling, here for a Private Prosecution."

Fine, that brother rolled his eyes directly; it was redundant to ask that question.

This master and apprentice pair—the master wears gold-rimmed glasses and looks like a refined scoundrel, while the apprentice is so beautiful and has such an excellent temperament.

As it turns out, the thing this master and apprentice are most keen on is sending people inside!

That's a bit too insane; if everyone were like you, the Criminal Court would be worked to death.

The young lady staff member took the Private Prosecution Complaint, read it, and was not surprised at all.

Ever since Fang Dazhuang came to apply for the Personal Safety Protection Order, she knew this would definitely happen.

If you want to say they are fishing, that's not quite it either.

The Court's judgments and rulings are mandatory; if they don't let you do something, you cannot do it.

Especially with this kind of prohibitive ruling—the Court just issued a Personal Safety Protection Order here, and you turn around and beat the person up again.

What is the meaning of this? Do you treat the Court's judgment and ruling like a fart?

If you do that, the Court will have to let you know what a bottom line is...

However, what needs to be reviewed must still be reviewed.

Still the same saying: for this crime to be established, there must be Serious Circumstances, and Yin Dajie went to get an examination.

A psychological examination, because due to domestic violence and mental torture, her current mental state is extremely unstable, and she even has thoughts of suicide...

One can only say that if the day comes when everyone has depression, then perhaps there won't be depression anymore.

The Court began the review, and this review took longer than the time it took for Fang Dazhuang to file the lawsuit himself.

Zhou Yi's life is still as regular as ever: every day is work, getting off work, the gym, and eating and drinking with Fang Dazhuang and Zhou Xinran.

From time to time, he calls home to ask if everything is safe, and his parents' answer is always the same: everything is fine at home, just take care of yourself while you are away.

It's just that when he called yesterday, Mother Zhou was very happy, saying there seemed to be some holiday promotion, a certain brand of gold was very cheap, so she bought a little, preparing to give it to a girl when he brings one home.

By the fourth day, the Court called Zhou Xinran to confirm the Case Filing.

A procedure is just a procedure; after doing it many times, one becomes very familiar with it.

The Guangming District Branch once again received the Criminal Case Filing Notice from the Guangming District Court.

When they received the relevant materials for the first time, the Guangming Branch was still surprised; a Criminal Private Prosecution, this thing is too uncommon.

By now, seeing these notifications, there is no ripple in their hearts.

As long as there is a notification to work, that's fine; in any case, the Public Security Bureau is there to work.

Criminal Summons, preparing relevant materials, the other party's address...

And then they discovered that this person is in the Detention Center again...

This brother who filed the Private Prosecution is too considerate; every time they are about to set off to make an arrest, they find there is no need to go at all.

When the time comes, just go directly to the Detention Center to have the other party sign and change locations; nothing to say, very considerate!

Sigh, if everyone could be this considerate of the Public Security Bureau's work, how good that would be...

Five days passed in a flash, and Li Changming was finally about to come out.

He is now full of ambition; in these five days, he learned a lot from his friends inside, especially that friend who seemed to know everything.

He taught many tricks, saying that when encountering such things, don't meet them head-on; drag it out, transfer assets.

Since the other party no longer wants to live with him, then making money is the absolute truth.

This is also a point criticized about the current regulation that one must wait six months to file for divorce if there is no new reason.

Many people seize the time within these six months to transfer assets.

Anyone who has been through a lawsuit knows that if this kind of thing really happens, then you can just wait slowly to bicker.

"Li Changming, your detention period has expired, you are now released, please sign here!" The police officer placed the Notification Letter to the side.

Li Changming signed with an excited face; he never wanted to come to this place again.

After signing, the door to the side was pushed open, and several police officers walked out.

"Li Changming, you are suspected of the crime of Refusal to Execute Judgment or Ruling, you are now being criminally detained according to the law, sign here."

Li Changming: "???"

Several police officers at the Detention Center looked at their colleagues next to them; what good luck.

"What are you doing, why are you locking me up again? Isn't there a rule of One Crime Two Punishments? I am going to report you, I want to see your leader!"

Li Changming was shouting there hard; he really didn't want to stay here anymore, he really had enough!

"This is not the same crime, and you were previously under Administrative Detention, which does not affect criminal offenses, take him away!"

Take him away?

Half an hour later, Li Changming looked at the sign for "Guangming District First Detention Center" with a blank expression; the Detention Center changed to a Detention House?

At the entrance of the Detention Center, Li Changming's younger sister, uncle, and other relatives were still waiting there, yet there had been no movement for a long time.

Upon asking the police, they found out he had been arrested again!

It is true that family members must be notified when someone is arrested, but since they are not divorced yet, Yin Dajie is the family member...

The old lady couldn't take it anymore and said directly that she was going to that Company to find Yin Ninghua; even if you kill someone, you don't have to go that far, they were husband and wife once, is it necessary to be like this?

"You all don't worry about it, I am at this age, if he doesn't let me in, I will lie down there, I don't believe anyone dares to touch me!"

Being an old person does not mean one is a good person; good people will grow old, and bad people will also grow old.
