Chapter 68: Mad Demon

Xu Damao, do you want to die?

Two days without beating you, do you think I, He Yuzhu, can't beat people?

He Yuzhu had long suspected that Qiu Fengling's breakup with him was due to Xu Damao's mischief; now, after being bumped by Xu Damao, his anger flared up uncontrollably.

Saying this, he raised his fist and charged at Xu Damao.

Chen Hong was standing nearby; seeing this, she stretched out her leg, placed her hand on He Yuzhu's wrist and pulled; He Yuzhu couldn't control his body, brushed past Xu Damao, and fell to the ground.

You person, how can you be so barbaric?

Who educated you like this, you only know how to fight and kill?

Do you know that if you beat someone up you could end up in jail; if you cause trouble, even eating peanuts could be problematic?

Martial arts are for strengthening the body and self-defense, not for you to be brave and ruthless.

If your master knew you were using kung fu like this, he'd slap himself, regret teaching you skills, and die of shame.

Martial artists must have martial virtue; kung fu is not for bullying people.

He Yuzhu knows a bit of martial arts; Chen Hong had already seen that.

Seeing him lash out at people at the slightest provocation made her very unhappy.

He is simply a disgrace to the martial world.

Sha Zhu stood up from the ground; being scolded mercilessly by a woman, his face flushed with embarrassment.

He felt his personal dignity had been severely challenged.

His face turned fierce, his eyes glaring at Chen Hong as he barked.

You dare to sneak attack me.

Saying this, he reached out to push Chen Hong.

He still retained a sense of shame, so he didn't use his fists.

He just wanted to give a shove to vent his anger.

At that moment, the old lady seeing all this had her face wrinkled up like a steamed bun.

She hastily stood up and scolded He Yuzhu.

Zhuzi, you want to make me die of anger; quickly stop.

We came to someone's house to mooch food and drink, yet you laid hands on the host—are you a bandit? You've embarrassed us greatly.

Had I known, I would definitely not have come.

Who would have thought Sha Zhu would behave so recklessly.

If you beat someone's wife to injury, it wouldn't just be a jail stint; your reputation would likely be utterly ruined.

This is her beloved grandson.

Yang Qing also stood up at that moment, holding a stool, and without a word charged at Sha Zhu.

Dare to move his wife, I'll fight you to the death.

Xu Damao was a beat late, but he also reached out to grab a stool.

The Liu Guangtian brothers glanced at the food, then at Sha Zhu, dropped their chopsticks, and rushed toward the bricks in the corner.

Chen Hong took in everyone's reactions.

Especially Yang Qing's fierce, icy face made her feel warm inside.

Though much is written, everything in reality happened in an instant.

The stool whistled past behind Sha Zhu as he pushed Chen Hong.

Chen Hong met Sha Zhu's hands with both of hers, then grabbed his wrist, stepped aside, turned her body, pressed down hard, and twisted backward.

Aoooo…

With a thud.

Sha Zhu knelt on the ground and began to wail. (Police technique for apprehending criminals.)

Yang Qing followed behind; because Sha Zhu had knelt, Yang Qing swung his stool in empty air, and the stool flew.

Then he stumbled and fell onto Sha Zhu.

He Yuzhu let out another howl.

Chen Hong only felt the arm in her hand go limp.

Sha Zhu was already lying on the ground.

His arm was already dislocated.

Yang Qing, having knocked Sha Zhu down, raised his fist and unleashed a barrage of punches.

Xu Damao was a beat late.

He could only stretch out his leg and kick hard.

The Liu Guangtian brothers also came over holding bricks.

Chen Hong hurriedly tried to stop them.

"Assistant, assistant, everyone stop, turn around and put it down."

Fortunately, the Liu family brothers' bricks didn't come down.

The old lady was startled and jumped.

"Don't fight, don't fight."

This is really heartbreaking.

Mooching meals has come to this; it's utterly embarrassing.

"Yang Qing, Chen Hong, I apologize on Sha Zhu's behalf; let's stop fighting."

Seeing Chen Hong speak, Liu Guangtian lowered his hand, though not doing anything at all would also be bad.

So they also kicked Sha Zhu a few times.

Xu Damao knew it was about enough and also stopped.

Only Yang Qing kept smashing away recklessly.

His mind had already gone crazy; all those years of suppressed frustration and humiliation drove him into a frenzy.

But he was too weak, his punches too feeble to move the thick-skinned Sha Zhu.

Seeing Yang Qing already fallen into a frenzy, Chen Hong could only grab his collar and haul him up.

The lifted Yang Qing still flailed his arms and legs, shouting.

"You bully me, and you bully my wife—I'll fight you."

Chen Hong was deeply moved hearing that.

She hugged Yang Qing tightly, constantly soothing him.

"No one bullied me, no one bullied me, be good, it's okay."

Slowly, Yang Qing went limp.

By then, Yang Qing's tears were streaming down his face.

"Why can't you just leave us alone, why?"

He kept questioning.

Even Sha Zhu, who had regained his strength and sat up, was frightened by Yang Qing's madness.

A chill ran down his back; there was no doubt that if he had really hit Chen Hong today, Yang Qing would truly fight him to the death.

The old lady, seeing Yang Qing's state, also felt deeply guilty.

"Why did I come? Why did I come? I just can't control my mouth."

She felt no resentment toward Yang Qing and his wife.

They, the couple, had already done very well.

But who knew their well-behaved grandson would turn out like this?

The old lady lowered her head and bent her waist, giving Yang Qing and Chen Hong a deep bow.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault that you've suffered."

Yang Qing, seeing this, also completely came out of his frenzy.

He broke free from Chen Hong's embrace.

Seeing this, Chen Hong stepped forward, blocking Yang Qing to prevent him from acting irrationally, turning reason into unreason.

She reached out to support Long Laotaitai, and Chen Hong comforted her.

"Old lady, this won't do, this won't do; it has nothing to do with you, it's not your fault."

"Who would have thought He Yuzhu, such a big person, would resort to violence at the slightest disagreement?"

"Forget it, he didn't even hit me; I broke his arm, he got beaten up by others, and he learned his lesson—let this go."

The old lady had already bowed; she couldn't continue, Chen Hong also felt it was enough, no need to pressure the old lady.

"Old lady, sit, sit down and speak."

"It's just trivial; which neighbor hasn't had some bumps and scrapes."

He Yuzhu's head was still buzzing.

"All he wanted was to discipline Xu Damao, right? All he wanted was to give you a shove, right?"

"How did things come to this?"

"He had become the target of everyone's anger; even Liu Guangtian's two brothers punched and kicked him."

"Why, why am I, He Yuzhu, so unpopular?"

"I just wanted to teach Xu Damao a lesson; I didn't mean to bully you."

"I also didn't mean to hit Chen Hong; I just wanted to push her."

"She knocked me down, and all I did was push her—what's the problem?"

"How come you're all shouting for a fight?"

Liu Guangtian gave him a contemptuous glance.

"You lay hands on a woman and still think you're in the right?"

The old lady also retorted.

"Zhuzi, shut your mouth."

"Come over and apologize."
