Rebirth of Bloody Romance

Chapter 138 Prologue

Li Ting was so angry that she laughed. Zhong Yuemin had caused a great uproar in Beijing. But he was just relaxing here, as if he was out of the matter.

At this moment, Li Ting walked into Zhong Yuemin's sight with a bit of teasing and helplessness. "Captain Zhong, are you feeling comfortable?"

There was a hint of sarcasm in Li Ting's voice, as if she was mocking Zhong Yuemin's leisure at the moment.

Zhong Yuemin didn't even raise his eyelids when he heard this, as if he didn't care about Li Ting's arrival.

Ning Wei stood aside, watching this scene, feeling a little embarrassed. He knew Zhong Yuemin's temper and Li Ting's personality very well, and once the two of them collided, sparks would definitely fly.

So Ning Wei quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Captain, Li Ting is here."

Zhong Yuemin was not unaware of Li Ting's arrival, he just pretended not to know and wanted to see how Li Ting would respond.

When Li Ting saw this, she didn't get angry, but smiled instead, as if she had already gotten used to Zhong Yuemin's attitude.

"Captain Zhong, it's time to go out. There are many people out there who are worried about you."

There was a hint of teasing in Li Ting's tone, as if telling Zhong Yuemin that his behavior had caused quite a stir.

Zhong Yuemin finally opened his eyes and looked at Li Ting with a smile on his face. "Let me out? That's a nice thought. You can catch me if you want and let me go if you want. Do you really think I have no temper?"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Zhong Yuemin's voice, as if telling Li Ting that he was not a pawn that could be manipulated by others.

Li Ting sighed. She knew it would be like this. "Captain Zhong, what do you think? Are you willing to go out?"

Zhong Yuemin was speechless when he heard this. "Li Ting, from what you said, it seems like I'm bullying others? I'm the one being bullied, okay?"

Li Ting shook her head and smiled bitterly. "Things are not as simple as you think..."

"Stop, don't tell me this. I just want to ask you if you understand this matter clearly. You don't have anything to say to me."

"I will give you an explanation about this matter."

Zhong Yuemin sighed, feeling mixed emotions. He understood that Li Ting couldn't be blamed for this.

Zhong Yuemin's tone softened, as if he wanted to find a trace of calm in this chaotic situation. "What's the situation outside now?"

A trace of worry flashed across Li Ting's eyes, and she whispered everything Zhou Xiaobai and Song Xiangjun had done.

Zhong Yuemin's brows furrowed as he listened. Putting aside the fact that it was one day earlier, it was obvious that the two women had read his note in advance.

But the problem is that the effect is too good, as if it is a carefully planned drama, and I have become a pawn in this drama.

"Oh, by the way," Li Ting suddenly remembered something, "I don't know why Zhang Haiyang and Wu Mantun are also involved."

Zhong Yuemin was now certain that the two old men in his family were involved. He seemed to be used by them and became a knife in the hands of the two old men.

Zhong Yuemin took a deep breath, and his expression became firm. He knew that no matter what the reason was, since his fathers had taken action, he had to cooperate.

Thinking of this, Zhong Yuemin turned to Li Ting and said, "I don't have anything to do here. You just go and protect Li Hongmei and her daughter. They are the key to this matter, and there can't be any mistakes."

Li Ting nodded, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes, but more of determination. "I have sent them back to the capital and handed them over to Zhou Xiaobai."

Zhong Yuemin felt relieved after hearing this. He knew that his wife was a careful and capable person, and leaving Li Hongmei and her daughter to her should be the safest choice.

"Then go and do your own thing and don't worry about me." Zhong Yuemin waved his hand, indicating that Li Ting could leave.

Li Ting seemed a little hesitant. "You really won't go out? The situation outside is chaotic now. Can you really feel at ease if you don't go and see for yourself?"

Zhong Yuemin smiled slightly, with a glimmer of wisdom in his eyes. "Don't worry, I know what to do. The most important thing now is to stay calm and clear-headed, and not be confused by the chaos outside. Go out and bring me some food, the food here is really inedible."

Li Ting looked at him with a hint of admiration in her eyes. She knew that although Zhong Yuemin seemed easy-going, he was actually an extremely tough and smart person.

So Li Ting nodded, turned around and left.

Zhong Yuemin sat on the bedside, closed his eyes and rested, but he was silently thinking about this matter in his heart. Now, this chess game has become more and more complicated, and he is now a chess piece, and he must play the role of a chess piece.

Li Ting had just walked out of the cold and damp corridor of the detention center. The sunlight was so bright that she could hardly open her eyes. Before she could recover from the depressing experience just now, she was brought back to reality by a familiar shout.

"Ting'er!" Huang Jinhua strode over with his signature smile on his face, as if he had met a long-lost relative.

Huang Jinhua was wearing a neat Mao suit, and the shining watch on his wrist was particularly dazzling in the sun, forming a sharp contrast with the shabbyness of the detention center.

"Brother Huang, why are you here?" Li Ting looked at him with some surprise, with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Huang Jinhua patted Li Ting on the shoulder, seeming to be very happy about her appearance. "You didn't even tell me you were here. If it weren't for the people below reporting it, I wouldn't have known you were here."

Li Ting smiled bitterly and said nothing. She really didn't want to talk about the scenes she just experienced again.

"What's wrong? Ting'er, you don't look well." Huang Jinhua noticed Li Ting's abnormality and asked with concern.

"Brother Huang, the people here are so arrogant. I almost couldn't get out." Li Ting was ready to test it out to see if the Cleaver Team had any relationship with him.

"Oh? Is that true?"

Huang Jinhua's expression changed slightly, but then he regained his composure. "Who is it? Tell me, and I'll go find them."

"They are a group of people holding kitchen knives. Do you know them?" Li Ting asked. Although her voice was calm, she was staring at Huang Jinhua's expression.

Huang Jinhua's expression changed again, but he soon smiled again. "Ting'er, don't worry, this is my territory, no one dares to touch you. I'll have someone check to see who is so blind."

Li Ting sighed inwardly. It seemed that the Cleaver Team had something to do with Huang Jinhua. "That's not necessary. I'm just curious as to why they are so arrogant."

"It was just an accident. By the way, Ting'er, why did you come to the detention center?" Huang Jinhua quickly changed the subject.

"I'm here to see a friend."

"Ah, your friend is here, do you want my help?"

Li Ting knew what he meant by helping. Huang Jinhua was really arrogant! "He just didn't want to come out. I think you should tell Uncle Huang about this."

Li Ting nodded at him. It seemed that Li Ting was very familiar with them. No wonder they wanted Zhong Yuemin to come out. What a pity!

Huang Jinhua was a little confused. What the hell? What did your friend say to my dad? "No, it's nothing. How about I treat you to a meal?"

Li Ting shook her head slightly and rejected Huang Jinhua's invitation. "Brother Huang, thank you for your kindness, but I still have things to deal with, so I won't bother you anymore."

Huang Jinhua saw that she was determined and could not force her, so he nodded. "Okay, Ting'er, you can go ahead and do your thing. If you need any help in the future, just come to me."

The moment Li Hongmei and her daughter arrived in Beijing, the sun shone on the ancient city wall, covering this vicissitudes of life with a layer of golden glory. The mother and daughter walked along the stone road and walked towards the unfamiliar courtyard.

In the courtyard, Zhou Xiaobai was quietly waiting. She was wearing a light blue work suit, her hair was lightly tied up, and her brows revealed a calmness and composure. When she saw Li Hongmei and her daughter, she smiled and greeted them.

Xiao Liu quickly stepped forward and introduced. "Sister-in-law, this is Li Hongmei, the wife of Zhong's comrade Zhang Tiejun."

Zhou Xiaobai nodded and looked at Li Hongmei, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.

Zhou Xiaobai looked back, but didn't see the person he wanted to see. The doubts in his heart gradually spread like dust blown by the wind.

"Where is Zhong Yuemin? Why hasn't he come back?" Zhou Xiaobai asked curiously.

Xiao Liu and Xiao Wang looked at each other, with a trace of embarrassment on their faces. They didn't know what to say, as if the answer to this question was too heavy to speak.

Finally, it was Li Hongmei who spoke, her voice trembling. "Zhong Yuemin was arrested and put in a detention center."

"What?" Zhou Xiaobai exclaimed, as if she was struck by lightning. She couldn't believe her ears.

"Zhong Yuemin was arrested because of us, mother and daughter. We don't know what's going on now."

Zhou Xiaobai took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. Because she knew that she couldn't panic or get confused at this time. She was Zhong Yuemin's wife and the backbone of the family, so she had to stay calm.

"Okay, I understand." Zhou Xiaobai nodded slightly.

"You guys settle down first, and when Yuemin comes back, we'll follow his arrangements."

"But... Zhong Yuemin..."

"Don't worry! Everything has been arranged. Yuemin will be back soon. Please tell me the details."

"Okay, that's what happened..."

After Zhou Xiaobai understood the situation and made arrangements for Li Hongmei and her daughter, he felt heavy-hearted and prepared to go out to deal with some urgent matters.

As Zhou Xiaobai just walked to the door, he suddenly bumped into a familiar face, it was Zhong Yuemin's counselor Song Xiangjun.

"Teacher Song, what are you doing? You look so anxious." Zhou Xiaobai greeted with a smile, trying to ease the sudden tense atmosphere between the two.

Song Xiangjun looked a little uneasy. She stammered, "Ah? I, I just came back. What are you doing?"

"I have to go out for something." Zhou Xiaobai responded briefly, but he was secretly wondering why Song Xiangjun was so flustered.

Song Xiangjun seemed a little hesitant, but finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Then, is Zhong Yuemin back?"

When Zhou Xiaobai heard this, his brows furrowed and his tone became serious. "Why did you come back? You were arrested."

"Ah? How could this happen?" Song Xiangjun exclaimed, obviously shocked by the news. "Then, then we have to find a solution quickly!"

Zhou Xiaobai sighed, knowing that Zhong Yuemin's matter had touched many people's hearts. She patted Song Xiangjun on the shoulder and comforted her. "Don't worry, Zhong Yuemin should have guessed this situation a long time ago. He left me a note, and there will be no problem as long as you do what is written on it."

Zhou Xiaobai and Song Xiangjun were discussing the next plan when they heard hurried footsteps outside the door. Then, Li Ting hurriedly walked in, her face still showing the fatigue of a long journey.

"Zhou Xiaobai, have all the arrangements been made for Li Hongmei and her daughter?" Li Ting asked anxiously as she entered the door.

"Yes, everything has been arranged." Zhou Xiaobai nodded, a trace of concern flashing in his eyes. "You are back from Phoenix City, right? Have you seen Zhong Yuemin?"

Li Ting took a deep breath, as if to calm down the shock in her heart, and then she slowly spoke. "I saw him, but you don't know. When I saw Zhong Yuemin, I was completely stunned."

"What's wrong?" Zhou Xiaobai and Song Xiangjun asked almost in unison, both of them couldn't help but have a bad feeling in their hearts.

Li Ting glanced at the two of them, a hint of complex emotions flashed in her eyes, and then she continued, "You can't imagine the scene there. Zhong Yuemin was surrounded by people, some rubbing his back, some rubbing his shoulders, and some rubbing his legs. What's even more outrageous is that some people even sang for him. He was like a local emperor, enjoying the crowd's support."

"This..." Zhou Xiaobai and Song Xiangjun looked at each other. This was different from what they had imagined.

"What's even more outrageous is that he taught those people to sing a song called 'Conquer'."

Li Ting continued, "He forced people to sing. Anyone who refused to sing would be beaten. The lyrics of that song were full of dominance and a desire to conquer. It made me tremble with fear when I heard them."

Zhou Xiaobai said angrily, "This bastard is still the same as before. He can get a lot of trouble even in jail. He made us worry for nothing."

When the dawn light just spread over the earth, the whole city was still immersed in a hazy state. However, the newspaper of the next day was like a heavy bomb, which instantly detonated the attention of the whole society.

The newspaper's front page headline was eye-catching: "Heroes are wrongfully imprisoned, the Cleaver Team is extremely evil." The article described in detail how two brave and fearless young men, Zhong Yuemin and Ning Wei, stepped forward at a critical moment and launched a thrilling contest with the Phoenix City Cleaver Team. Their bravery and justice were misunderstood and framed by people who did not know the truth, and they were eventually wrongfully imprisoned.

As Li Hongmei's narration progressed, people's emotions were gradually ignited. They seemed to be able to see Zhong Yuemin and Ning Wei's unflinching figures at the critical moment of life and death, and felt their firm belief in fighting for justice. At the same time, the evil deeds of the Phoenix Cleaver Team were also exposed one by one, and their cruelty and shamelessness were outrageous.

"This is simply a blasphemy against justice!" A middle-aged man slammed the table in anger, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

"We must vindicate these two heroes and not let the real criminals go unpunished!" a young woman said excitedly, her voice full of power.

As Li Hongmei's narration continued, more and more people began to join in the action of supporting Zhong Yuemin and Ning Wei. They took to the streets, holding high the banner of justice, demanding a thorough investigation of the matter and clearing the name of the hero.

The incident quickly swept across the country, attracting widespread attention and discussion.

Under pressure from public opinion, the government had no choice but to re-examine the case. A special task force was set up to investigate the matter, and the crackdown that was supposed to begin six months later was officially launched.
