I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

Jiangjia Village, Security Center.

On more than a dozen high-definition screens, the farce at the village entrance was being broadcast live.

Jiang Chen sat cross-legged in a comfortable leather boss's chair, holding a cup of freshly brewed Da Hong Pao tea.

The aroma of tea wafts through the air.

He watched as Liu Cuifen rolled on the ground like a madwoman on the screen, while Jiang Jianwen delivered a passionate speech with an expressionless face.

Wang Dagou, who was standing nearby, was so anxious that he kept pacing around in circles.

"Brother Chen, these people are shameless! Tourists are watching, it's a terrible example!"

"How about I take a few of my buddies down there, throw them in the bread truck, and take them away?"

Jiang Chen blew on the scalding hot tea and took a small sip.

He didn't even lift his eyelids; he simply picked up the walkie-talkie on the table and pressed the call button.

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable chill.

"Ding Xiu".

"Yes," came Ding Xiu's concise reply from the walkie-talkie.

"Those two new German Shepherds at the farm behind the mountain, haven't they eaten yet?"

"Take them outside and let them stretch their muscles."

"Teach them a lesson."

"Yes."

Village entrance.

Ding Xiu's figure appeared from behind the crowd.

He still had that expressionless look, but now he had two thick iron chains in his hands.

At the other end of the chain were two German Shepherds, each more than half a person tall, with glossy black fur.

The two wolfhounds were strong and muscular, emitting low growls from their throats, and their eyes gleamed with a green light as they stared intently at Liu Cuifen, who was lying on the ground throwing a tantrum.

The sheer presence of the place caused the surrounding villagers and tourists to instinctively take several steps back.

Ding Xiu walked to the front of the crowd without saying a word.

He simply loosened the chains on his hands.

"Woof! Woof woof woof!"

Two fierce dogs, starving all day, charged towards Liu Cuifen like arrows released from a bow!

They didn't actually bite, but their ferocious barking and the saliva dripping from their gaping maws were enough to terrify anyone!

"ah--!"

Liu Cuifen felt a stench hit her face, and when she turned her head, two hideous dog faces loomed large in front of her.

She was so frightened that her earlier tantrum vanished instantly.

He sprang to his feet like a spring.

He scrambled and crawled, scrambling and wetting himself, to hide behind the dilapidated bread truck, clutching his head and letting out a pig-like scream.

"Dog! Dog! Help!"

Jiang Jianwen was also frightened by the scene and turned pale. He subconsciously took two steps back and hid on the other side of the car.

Two large wolfhounds blocked the front of the car, baring their teeth and baring their fury at the back, looking ready to pounce and tear it apart at any moment.

The chaotic scene instantly fell silent.

All that remained were Liu Cuifen's screams and the barking of the two dogs.

Just then.

Attorney Zhou, carrying his briefcase, walked over unhurriedly, escorted by a team of security personnel.

In his hand, he was also holding a loudspeaker used for village meetings.

"Sizzle—"

A piercing electrical hum rang out, drawing everyone's attention.

Attorney Zhou walked to the stone pillar at the entrance of the village, which was engraved with the three large characters "Jiangjia Village".

He took out a huge photocopy of a document printed on photographic paper from his briefcase.

Then, in front of everyone, he used glue and, with a "smack," stuck it directly to the most conspicuous spot on the stone pillar.

"Fellow villagers, friends, look over here!"

Attorney Zhou raised a megaphone, and the sound clearly echoed throughout the entire village entrance.

"I am the chief legal counsel of the Jiang Group. You all probably know the two men behind me. They claim to be members of the Jiang family and were ruthlessly expelled by Mr. Jiang Chen."

Is that really the case?

A cold, sharp smile curled at the corners of Attorney Zhou's lips.

He pointed to the photocopy on the stone pillar, his voice suddenly rising.

"Everyone, please look carefully!"

"This is the 'Family Relationship Termination Agreement' that Jiang Jianwen, Liu Cuifen, and several other families voluntarily severed all ties with Jiangjia Village and received a one-time cash compensation of three million yuan!"

"It's all in black and white, crystal clear!"

"Not only do they have their own autographs on it, but they also have their red handprints on it!"

"The agreement is fully legally binding! From the moment they signed it, they were no longer residents of Jiangjia Village, nor members of the Jiang clan!"

The tourists and villagers who had been watching all gathered around.

Every word on that enlarged agreement was clearly visible.

Especially noteworthy are the phrases "voluntary withdrawal," "never to regret," and the glaring amount of "three million yuan," along with the row of crooked signatures and bright red handprints below.

"My God, they took three million to cut ties, and now they're coming back for more money?"

"Isn't this just pure scoundrelism?"

"I thought it was some kind of family persecution, but it turns out it's just that he's greedy for money!"

"Shameless! Utterly shameless!"

The public's opinion shifted dramatically in an instant.

The tourists who had just felt sympathy for Jiang Jianwen's family now all showed disdain and pointed at them.

Jiang Jianwen's face instantly turned a deep liver color.

He felt as if hundreds of eyes were piercing him like needles.

He prided himself on being a cultured man and valued his reputation above all else. At that moment, he felt his face burning with embarrassment and wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

He could no longer feign that aloofness.

He covered his face, opened the car door, and jumped into the driver's seat.

"Get in! Get in now! Let's go!"

He urged Liu Cuifen and Wu Xiulian, who were still trembling in the back of the car, urgently.

Liu Cuifen disregarded her fear of dogs and climbed onto the car using both hands and feet.

Jiang Jianwen started the car with trembling hands.

The broken bread cart coughed violently, belching out an even thicker plume of black smoke, and hurriedly turned around.

Two large wolfhounds chased after the car, barking wildly for half a block before stopping at Ding Xiu's whistle.

Wang Dagou walked to the stone pillar, and spat hard on the ground in front of the fleeing bread cart.

"Pah! What a piece of junk!"

"Trying to come back and take advantage of Brother Chen?"

"Maybe in the next life!"
