Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 143 How could someone cause such a huge disaster?
Du Desheng was so shocked by Du Anrao's fierce performance that he was speechless for a long time before he could react.

When he turned his head, he saw Du Junyan and Xi Jingyue standing dumbfounded on either side of him and his lover, like bodyguards. His cheeks twitched violently twice.

"What's wrong with you two? Your Grandma Qin and I are too old to help, but you two young, healthy men aren't going up to help. You're leaving An'an to carry the load all by herself. Aren't you ashamed?"

Du Junyan pushed up his glasses without any guilt and said in a very deep voice, "Grandpa, you don't know this, but before I came here, my second son repeatedly told me to stay away when we were fighting, so as not to affect An'an's performance."

“An’an is said to be a descendant of Yuan Tiangang and has superhuman strength. She once rescued him from seven or eight bodyguards who weighed two hundred pounds each. With my meager abilities, I would not only be unable to help her, but I might also be a hindrance.”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Xi Jingyue quickly chimed in, “I can testify to this. I was there at the time and saw it with my own eyes. So, I’m very self-aware; I wasn’t really hiding from helping.”

Unfortunately, this explanation did not satisfy Du Desheng.

He gave the two of them a particularly disdainful look, as if to say: You two good-for-nothings actually have the nerve to say that, you're a disgrace, tui~
Du Junyan and Xi Jingyue: "..." Well, that's really... undeniable!
Seeing that so many people couldn't even subdue a young girl, and seeing that Du Junyan and Xi Jingyue were guarding the two old men and there was no opportunity to take advantage of the situation, Qin Shouye gritted his teeth unwillingly and decided to take advantage of the chaos to escape first.

Unexpectedly, just as they reached the main gate, they encountered another dozen or so bodyguards who had rushed over.

With the help of this group of people, Du Anrao and his companion were able to relax considerably.

A few minutes later, the sharp sound of police sirens pierced the night sky, preventing the fight from escalating further.

The villagers, who had been blinded by their passion, calmed down and looked at each other in bewilderment.

"The police? They really called the police? Could it be that what they just said was true?"

Realizing this, many of those involved in the fight were terrified and quickly dropped their tools to flee, fearing they would be caught if they lingered even a second longer.

The village chief and Qin Shouye also wanted to run away, but they were closely watched by Du Desheng's bodyguards and couldn't escape at all.

The villagers, who were quick to react, had barely finished running away when the Qin family's courtyard was surrounded.

The first person to rush in was a middle-aged man in his early forties, dressed in a suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, looking very refined and scholarly.

Perhaps because he arrived in such a hurry, he was covered in sweat, his hair was a bit messy, and he looked rather disheveled.

"Ninth Master, are you alright? Why didn't you tell us you were coming here? If something had happened to you, we would have no way to explain ourselves!"

Du Desheng's face darkened, and he slammed his cane down with a deafening thud.

"I wouldn't dare trouble you, Mr. Jiang. I've seen a bit of the world, but I never imagined that at this time of year, there would still be places like this in our own homes where people are quick to threaten violence and resort to vigilante justice, and where even calling the police doesn't deter them. If you had arrived any later, you might have been collecting the corpses of these two old folks and the younger generation in our families."

Mr. Jiang was sweating profusely and hurriedly apologized: "It was my fault, it was my negligence. I never thought there would be such a lawless and lawless place under my jurisdiction, causing fear to Master Jiu and your family. Don't worry, we will definitely give you and your family an explanation for this matter."

“It’s not just this incident. My loved one was kidnapped, imprisoned, and tortured here. He has suffered so much. We can’t let this go. Everyone involved in this matter, every single one of them, must be arrested.”

"Is this really true?" Mr. Jiang was also shocked. His eyes seemed to say as he looked at Qin Shouye and the others: How could anyone cause such a big mess?
"Rest assured, kidnapping, imprisonment, torture, and abuse are all serious violations of the law. Even if you didn't say anything, we certainly can't let such a black sheep get away with it. I'll have someone investigate how many people are involved in this matter and make sure no one escapes the net." Du Desheng snorted coldly, "That's for the best."

"Asheng..." Grandma Qin listened to their conversation with surprise, and for a moment she was not sure what her lover's identity was now.

Upon hearing Grandma Qin's voice, Du Desheng immediately performed a Sichuan opera face-changing act, smiling broadly as he approached her and asked tenderly, "What's wrong?"

Onlookers: "..."

Only Du Anrao silently hid behind Du Junyan and Xi Jingyue, covering his mouth with a playful expression as if he had bumped into something.

[Tsk tsk tsk, Grandpa's domineering way of protecting his wife is kind of handsome! Won't he seduce Grandma Qin? My love is a peerless hero, coming to pick me up after many years riding on auspicious clouds! This is like a scene from a mythological novel coming to life! I'm totally shipping them!]

Xi Jingyue: Pfft... Well, that's quite fitting.

Du Junyan: "..." Little sister, how many melodramatic romance novels have you been reading lately? You can't just throw your brain away like that!

Grandma Qin blushed at what she was said and glared at Du Desheng angrily.

Du Desheng, however, felt that his little lucky star had excellent judgment, able to see through her great-uncle's handsome appearance and reliable nature at a glance, and his tail almost wagged wildly.

When Grandma Qin pinched him, he finally calmed down and coughed lightly, saying, "Yanqing, do you think my way of handling this is too heartless? After all, he is your nephew."

“But they treated you like that, hurt you like this, made you suffer so much. Just thinking about it makes me feel terrible. How could they do this to you? I can’t swallow this anger if I don’t teach them a lesson.”

The crowd, who got goosebumps from Du Desheng's exaggerated tone, were speechless.

Even Du Anrao, not wanting to miss out on the excitement, watched the show with great enthusiasm.

Wow, what a strong tea aroma! There's no doubt this is a pot of aged green tea that's been brewing for at least half a century.

Du Junyan and his companion: Pfft...

Du Desheng: "..." Girl, give me some face, don't expose my shortcomings, or I'll give you a big gift when I get back.

Grandma Qin was amused by Du Anrao's accurate retort: ​​"What do you take me for? They colluded with the people around me to steal my family property, kicked me out of my own home, and even wanted to kill me. How could I possibly plead for them? It's not like I have a saintly heart that wants to go sit at the foot of Leshan Mountain."

"I just want to ask you, are you really confident you can get them all in? If not, I can do it myself."

Du Desheng: "..." Was he being looked down upon by his wife?

Du Junyan: "..." Why does this future grandma look even more fierce than grandpa?
Du Anrao: Pfft...
