The game of power begins with the police officers at the local police station.

Wang Yanhong's father lay on the ground groaning, blood still oozing from his head. Her mother was terrified by her cousin and second uncle, completely disoriented.

The second uncle pointed his finger at Wang Yanhong's nose and scolded, "You're going to be a money-losing daughter who gets married anyway. No matter how much you study, you'll still belong to someone else's family and have nothing to do with our Wang family."

If you're even slightly reasonable, advise your parents to move out immediately and vacate the house.

Wang Yanhong faced her second uncle and cousin, who were eyeing her menacingly, and they could open their fangs and devour her at any moment.

Why hasn't Chen Shi arrived yet? Her mind went blank, and she didn't know what to do.

More and more villagers gathered to watch the spectacle, but no one came forward to help the poor mother and daughter.

In the countryside, this is a private matter for the Wang family, and outsiders shouldn't interfere.

The cousin yelled at Wang Yanhong's father, who was lying in the room, "If you want to die, die outside, but don't die in my room."

He was about to step forward and drag Wang Yanhong's father out.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yanhong immediately rushed forward and stood in front of her father.

"If you dare touch my dad again, I'll put you in jail, you believe me?"

Her cousin glared at Wang Yanhong with a fierce look on his face: "Get the hell out of my way, believe it or not, I'll stab you to death right now."

Wang Yanhong shouted, "Try poking me!"

Upon seeing the kitchen knife nearby, the cousin quickly stepped forward, picked it up, and lunged at Wang Yanhong.

Wang Yanhong was terrified; he really dared to cut me.

The second uncle quickly hugged his son and shouted, "You're asking for death! Your eldest brother is a gangster outside. He's really killed people. And it's not just one person who died at his hands."

If your family wants to live, quickly apologize to your eldest brother and give up the house. He'll spare your lives out of consideration for us all being family.

My cousin yelled, "Dad, don't stop me! Today I'm going to kill all three of them!"

The sirens blared, and Wang Yanhong, her mind blank with fright, muttered, "You've finally arrived."

Wang Yanhong's mother was so frightened that she couldn't even cry. If her second uncle hadn't held her cousin and stabbed him, would her daughter still be alive?

Chen Shi arrived with four or five policemen, as well as doctors and nurses.

The crowd quickly made way for them.

Wang Yanhong was terrified; her legs wouldn't obey her commands, and her whole body was trembling.

She was about to fall when Chen Shi quickly stepped forward and caught Wang Yanhong with one arm.

Wang Yanhong burst into tears, just like a child who has been bullied outside and has been holding back her tears, only daring to cry out loud when she sees her parents.

Chen Shi quickly reassured him, "It's alright, I'm here."

Doctors and nurses came forward to examine Wang Yanhong's father's injuries.

When the police arrived, the second uncle and cousin tried to put on a show to scare Wang Yanhong and her daughter into moving out and giving up the house.

Unexpectedly, the police actually came.

When Wang Yanhong's mother saw Chen Shi, she was as if she had seen her pillar of support. She immediately perked up and pointed at her second uncle and cousin, saying, "Son-in-law, quickly arrest them! He's holding a knife and wants to kill Yanhong."

Before Chen Shi could speak, Zhang Hu stepped forward and shouted, "Put down the knife. I'm warning you three times, or I'll shoot."

He touched his waist and found that he was not carrying a gun when he went on duty.

Faced with Zhang Hu's imposing stature, his cousin was so frightened that he quickly dropped the kitchen knife on the ground.

Zhang Hu quickly stepped forward and took the kitchen knife in his hand.

After calming Wang Yanhong down, Chen Shi coldly asked, "Did you beat him up?"

My second uncle mustered his courage and shouted, "This is a matter for the Wang family, what business is it of yours?"

"You broke into someone's home and committed crimes. Protecting the lives and property of the people is our duty as police officers. Arrest these two criminals."

Zhang Hu took the lead and rushed forward to subdue his cousin. The other policemen pounced on him, subdued his second uncle, and handcuffed him.

My cousin shouted, "The police are arresting people arbitrarily, and nobody cares? This is a private matter for the Wang family. What right do you, an outsider, have to interfere?"

Chen Shi released his grip on Wang Yanhong and walked toward his cousin with a murderous look on his face.

"You assaulted someone and broke the law. You will be sent to the prosecutor's office, prosecuted, and imprisoned."

Wang Yanhong's mother pointed at her cousin: "He has killed people, and more than one."

"Is that so?" Chen Shi's icy gaze pierced his cousin.

The second uncle quickly said, "Officer, I was just making that up to scare the mother and daughter. My son has never killed anyone."

"If you say you didn't kill anyone, then you didn't kill anyone. Take him back and send him to the criminal investigation team for investigation."

My cousin was terrified and cried out, "I didn't kill anyone! I really didn't kill anyone!"

The second uncle shouted at Wang Yanhong, "Yanhong, I am your own second uncle. Quickly persuade your boyfriend that your brother has never killed anyone. I was just talking nonsense to scare you."

Wang Yanhong regained her senses and said in an icy tone: "Now that you know you are my second uncle, why didn't you say so when you were trying to kill me with a knife earlier?"

I will pursue your legal responsibilities and send you to jail.

Chen Shi said coldly, "Even if there was no murder, the intimidation involved makes him guilty. Take him away, interrogate him thoroughly, send him to the Public Security Bureau, and open a case for investigation."

My second uncle and cousin were terrified. My cousin felt a heat in his crotch and peed himself, the urine flowing down his trouser leg.

Chen Shi glanced at him and thought, "This kind of guy has even killed people. He's a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong. He deserves to be taught a lesson."

Zhang Hu led the police and arrested the two men.

After the bleeding from Wang Yanhong's father's head stopped, Chen Shi asked, "Doctor, is the injury serious?"

"The injuries are serious, and there is excessive bleeding. You need to be taken to the health center immediately."

Chen Shi squatted down, picked up Wang Yanhong's father, and carried him to the trolley, where the nurse started an IV drip.

Wang Yanhong called out, "Dad, are you alright? Don't scare me."

Wang Yanhong's father was in a daze and unable to speak.

They took him to the local health center, but seeing that he was unconscious, they told them to send him to the county hospital, and they refused to take him in.

He was immediately sent to the county hospital. After emergency treatment, Wang Yanhong's father woke up three days later and was out of danger.

Chen Shi has been here these past few days, keeping Wang Yanhong company. People are most vulnerable at this time.

Seeing that her father was alright, Chen Shi wanted to go back to the police station.

Wang Yanhong escorted Chen Shi out.

"Chen Shi, thank you so much. I really don't know what I would have done without you this time."

"I'm your boyfriend. Anyone who dares to bully you is bullying me, and I'll make them pay the price."

From now on, no matter what happens, call me immediately, okay?

Wang Yanhong nodded obediently, still feeling terrified at the thought; if her father had been delayed any longer, he might not have survived.

Chen Shi asked, "Have you thought it through? Do you want to send your second uncle and cousin to jail?"

Wang Yanhong nodded firmly: "They almost beat my dad to death and threatened to kill my whole family."

Their actions must be punished by law.

Sometimes, I really don't understand why people would kill their closest relatives for a dilapidated old house.

The moment they struck, there was no longer any kinship, only hatred. If we let them go this time, I can't even imagine what outrageous things they might do in the future.

Chen Shi gently comforted him: "Your second uncle and cousin are the type to bully the weak and fear the strong. They deserve to be taught a lesson. Don't let them get away with it. Let them go to jail for a few years, and they'll behave themselves."

Wang Yanhong nodded. Faced with danger, she felt weak and pitiful. Now she could understand her father's obsession with having a son.

If I had a younger brother, my second uncle and cousin would definitely not dare to bully my family so brazenly.

Fortunately, I found a responsible and dependable boyfriend.
