Chapter 384: Counter-Accusing

"It's that guy surnamed Liu."

Liu Haizhong patted his forehead and said awkwardly: "Wan Ping'an, what do you mean by this? My surname is also Liu?"

"Second Master, let's be open and honest. I just came back from outside and heard these few people at my door, saying that you entered my room and took my wine, and also took ten yuan, is that right?" Wan Ping'an asked.

"Wan Ping'an, don't spit blood, I have never entered your room, how could I take your wine?"

"Don't worry about whether I'm spitting blood or not, you just need to admit it. I'm telling you, come with me to the police station to report the case now!"

"Report to the police? No need to report to the police, Brother Wan, the relationship between us is strong, it must be that those little rabbits wronged me. I guarantee you, I will never come to your house to take wine to drink again, and I will never take any of your things!"

"Why should I believe you? I want to get back what belongs to me!" Wan Ping'an's attitude was firm, "Go, if you don't go today, don't blame me for being impolite."

"What evidence do you have?"

"Second Uncle, you still want evidence? These few young men said with their own mouths that you entered my room, and they also took my money. Tell me, is that right?"

Wan Ping'an nudged those young men, and they all nodded sheepishly.

The noise of the argument in the courtyard grew louder. The Second Aunt, Liu Haizhong’s wife, who had been cooking in the kitchen, also came out to see what was happening.

Wearing an apron, the Second Aunt saw seven or eight strangers standing in the courtyard, and she even recognized one of them. She asked, "Haizhong, who are these kids?"

Liu Haizhong sighed.

"What are they here for?" the Second Aunt asked, looking at the people in the courtyard with confusion.

Liu Haizhong sighed and said, "I don't know either. When I got up today, they were squatting in the courtyard chatting, and then they said they saw me enter the First Uncle Wan Ping'an's house, steal his wine to drink, and take ten yuan."

"Ah? You can tolerate such a wicked thing?" the Second Aunt said indignantly.

"Second Aunt? You’re not saying that right, are you? I’m still standing right here. Why don't you ask your Liu Haizhong if he really took my wine and money? These young men all saw your Liu Haizhong enter my room to take the money," Wan Ping'an said with disdain.

"What nonsense are you spouting? I didn't take your money!" the Second Aunt said, glaring. "And you, what are you doing coming to my house?"

Wan Ping'an glanced at the Second Aunt: "I came to ask, to seek justice for myself, is that not allowed?"

Too lazy to deal with this shrew, Wan Ping'an turned his head and continued to say to Liu Haizhong: "I'll count to three. If you don't admit it, I'm calling the police to arrest you!"

After speaking, Wan Ping'an began to count: "One, two..."

"Wait! I admit it, I did steal your wine and drink it." Liu Haizhong sighed helplessly.

Wan Ping'an’s face darkened: "Liu Haizhong, you bastard, I spent five days brewing that wine with such hard work, and it was all stolen and consumed by you. Tell me, shouldn't you compensate me for this wine?"

"Sigh," Liu Haizhong sighed, "I'll pay, I'll pay!"

"Cut the crap, give me the money!"

Wan Ping'an held out both hands.

Liu Haizhong took the money out of his pocket and handed it to Wan Ping'an. "Wan Ping'an, I've already given you the money. Our grudge can be considered settled."

Wan Ping'an didn't speak; he turned and left directly.

"Haizhong, how could you admit it? You're finished now, they will definitely go and report you!" the Second Aunt said worriedly. "Don't be foolish, this Wan Ping'an is too dark! He actually scammed your money!" ===== CHAPTER 803 =====

When Wan Ping'an heard the Second Aunt say that, he immediately became unwilling. What did she mean by him scamming Liu Haizhong’s money?

Liu Haizhong stole his family's money and wine; it was already generous of him not to call the police. How could he turn around and accuse him?

"Second Aunt, let me tell you, I am innocent! I didn't scam his money!"

The Second Aunt sneered: "Hmph! Wan Ping'an, stop lying to people. I’ve heard it all clearly! You still want to quibble! Do you really think I’m easy to bully?"

Wan Ping'an frowned: "These words weren't spread by me. Whoever wants to believe it can believe it, but I have never harmed him!"

"You little brat, you’ve got guts," Liu Haizhong said sinisterly. "Wan Ping'an, since you put it that way, I'll tell you the truth: not only was your family's wine taken by me, but even your family's chicken, duck, and goose eggs were all snatched by me!"

"You snatched my family's eggs? Why? Could it be that you took a fancy to my family's eggs?"

"Heh, with that dump of yours, what good things could grow there? Better to leave them to someone else."

Wan Ping'an’s heart gave a violent jolt: "Liu Haizhong, so that’s how it is, you’ve been coveting my family’s wine for a long time!"

"Hehe, I say it like this, you should be very happy, right? That way I can logically get my hands on the wine."

Wan Ping'an clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Fine, I finally understand why I always felt a chill behind my back when I slept last night. It turns out you were the one playing tricks. You despicable villain, I must tear your mouth apart."

"Try it if you dare! Laozi isn't afraid of you."

"Fine, Liu Haizhong, I’m going to beat you flat today!"

"Enough!"

Just as the two were at daggers drawn, Li Shen’s angry roar suddenly came: "Stop it, all of you!"

Immediately, Li Shen arrived in the courtyard of Wan Ping'an’s house with several staff members from the village committee. Li Shen looked at the situation in the courtyard and said coldly: "Wan Ping'an, you wait first!"

After speaking, Li Shen scolded Liu Haizhong: "Liu Haizhong, you have simply lost all the face of our Sihe Academy! Get home right now!"

"Mom!"

"Get out!"

With Li Shen’s violent shout, Liu Haizhong trembled all over. Unwillingly, he lowered his head and pulled his wife and daughter toward home.

"Hey! Uncle Liu, wait for me!"

Wan Ping'an also followed.

Wan Ping'an chased him to Liu Haizhong’s house and kicked him in the chest.

"Bang!"

Liu Haizhong was kicked to the ground by Wan Ping'an, unable to get up from the pain, grimacing: "Wan Ping'an, you dare to kick me!"

"You still dare to talk?!"

Wan Ping'an raised his leg, preparing to kick him hard again, but was stopped by Li Shen at the side.

"Wan Ping'an, let's talk this out properly!" After Li Shen finished speaking, she bent down to help the lying Liu Haizhong up, then gave a look to her son and daughter-in-law at the side, signaling them to help Liu Haizhong up.

"Wan Ping'an, Haizhong is older than you after all. You went a bit too far this time. Even if Haizhong really took your wine and eggs, you shouldn't use lethal force!" Li Shen scolded.

Wan Ping'an sneered: "Aunt Li, you’re being heartless saying that. Liu Haizhong just said that this money was my medical expenses, and he even wanted to forcibly occupy my family’s wine and eggs. Does he have any shame?"

Li Shen frowned and said: "But you still can't kick Haizhong! Wouldn't you just be making things worse by doing that?"

"Fine, then I’ll go to the police station to report the case right now and ask them to judge who is right!"

Li Shen immediately stopped him: "Are you crazy? If the police station finds out about this, it will have a bad influence on the Sihe Academy, and besides..."

"Besides what?" ===== CHAPTER 804 =====
