Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

With winter approaching, Ye Chen had a lot of troubles on his hands.

The new house has been built and urgently needs to be furnished. Before winter, we also need to go into the mountains to hunt and stock up on meat.

In order to make the most of the time, Ye Chen arrived at the new house early in the morning and instructed the carpenter to make custom furniture and set up the new house.

Just as the construction site was bustling with activity, a familiar figure suddenly appeared at the door.

Zhao Changshun, with a worried look on his face, greeted Ye Chen and then got straight to the point.

"Ye Chen, someone has reported that you committed bigamy and have improper relationships with three women. Such behavior constitutes the crime of indecent assault!"

"Bigamy is also a serious crime, and if verified, you'll have to come with us!"

Behind Zhao Changshun was a middle-aged man, and at the very back, Zhang Shaoyang looked smug and even waved to Ye Chen rather arrogantly.

"Ye Chen, we meet again. I remember I said last time that when we meet again, I'll make you pay!"

"You're the one who reported me, aren't you?" Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, stepped forward, and glared fiercely at Zhang Shaoyang.

Zhang Shaoyang feigned fear and pleaded with Zhao Changshun for help: "Captain Zhao, look, Ye Chen is clearly threatening me. I'm a law-abiding citizen; the police have to guarantee my safety!"

"Don't worry, we won't wrong an innocent person, nor will we let any bad person go free!" Zhao Changshun stepped forward to stand between the two.

"Ye Chen, I know your situation, and I hope you can cooperate with the investigation. I guarantee it's all a misunderstanding, and you'll be back safely soon!"

Zhao Changshun was promoted to captain of the reconnaissance team because of Ye Chen.

The two already had a friendship, and Zhao Changshun naturally didn't want Ye Chen to make a mistake, so he quickly offered words of comfort.

However, this conversation between the two drew objections from Zhang Shaoyang: "Captain, are you saying this to show favoritism towards Ye Chen?"

"My uncle is your boss. If you continue like this, I'll tell my uncle everything!"

Zhang Shaoyang has many relatives who hold official positions in the county town; even the head of the Public Security Bureau is Zhang Shaoyang's uncle.

Even Zhao Changshun dared not be negligent when it came to such connections. He frowned and immediately pulled out handcuffs from his waist, intending to detain Ye Chen.

"What are you doing?"

No one expected that at this crucial moment, an angry voice would rang out.

The next second, Tian Xiaohui, Qian Jiali, and Luo Ling rushed into the courtyard and stood in front of Ye Chen.

"What did Ye Chen do wrong? You have to give us an explanation, or nobody's taking him away today!"

"That's right, Officer Zhao, you and Ye Chen are old acquaintances. You can't just ignore someone wrongly accusing him, can you?"

"I'm on official business. Ye Chen is suspected of hooliganism and bigamy. I need his cooperation in the investigation!" Officer Zhao said sternly, in a businesslike manner.

Upon hearing this explanation, Tian Xiaohui immediately exploded and questioned her directly.

"Indecent assault? Who did Ye Chen do indecent things with? How come I don't know? Ye Chen has three women waiting for him at home, why would he go out and have a good time?"

"That's right. As for the bigamy charge, that's a joke. Xiao Hui and I are both Ye Chen's ex-wives. What, you don't allow ex-wives to live with their ex-husbands?"

Seeing the two women's imposing manner, the middle-aged man next to Zhao Changshun quickly stepped forward.

"Ladies, please calm down. Are you sure Ye Chen hasn't done anything indecent to you?"

"And are you sure Ye Chen has never remarried?"

"What kind of hooliganism is this? We're Ye Chen's ex-wife, we're family. What we do is none of your business!" Qian Jiali cursed directly.

The middle-aged man then nodded with a smile: "Since you, the parties involved, have said so, then the charge of hooliganism naturally doesn't exist!"

"However, regarding the report of bigamy, we need you to bring your marriage certificate and divorce certificate so we can verify them!"

"If Ye Chen is truly innocent, then he's cleared and doesn't need to come with us, saving us all time!"

Upon hearing the middle-aged man's statement, Zhang Shaoyang immediately became somewhat reluctant: "Director Qin, didn't you just say..."

"I just said that if Ye Chen were guilty, I would definitely not let him off the hook, but he's clearly innocent now. We can't just force a confession out of him, can we?"

The Director Qin mentioned by Zhang Shaoyang is Zhao Changshun's superior and also the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.

Even though Zhang Shaoyang's uncle was the bureau chief, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to Director Qin. Even if the other party didn't do as he wished, he could only grit his teeth and not say another word.

"Director Qin, you're very reasonable. Since you've said so, we'll definitely cooperate. Xiaohui, let's go, let's get the relevant documents. Director Qin will be fine after he sees them!"

Seeing this, Qian Jiali breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled Tian Xiaohui along to walk towards the rented courtyard.

For a moment, only Luo Ling and Ye Chen remained at the scene. Seeing this, Zhang Shaoyang smiled coldly and took out the marriage contract signed by Luo Guanzhong.

"Oh, right, Miss Luo, I forgot to tell you something. Your father has agreed to let you marry me!"

"I know you've been deceived by Ye Chen. That kid is a bad person. Getting too close to him will only get you hurt!"

"It's an arranged marriage, and I still hope you can listen to Uncle Luo. As long as you marry into my Zhang family, I promise you won't be mistreated. You should really think it over!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Ling's face immediately showed anger. Only at this moment did she realize that she had clearly been sold to the Zhang family by her father!

Thinking back to yesterday's conflict, Luo Ling was even more furious.

Luo Guanzhong repeatedly claimed that he was the other party's daughter, but did he really treat her like a daughter in all the things he did?

What they said was absolutely disgusting!

"You're right, it was an arranged marriage, but starting yesterday, I, Luo Ling, have severed all ties with the Luo family!"

Luo Ling stepped forward and, without hesitation, directly refused, saying, "In my eyes, Luo Guanzhong is not my father at all. I have absolutely no relation to him, so stop talking to me!"

"He signed the marriage contract, so you should make her marry you. In short, stop bothering me!"

"Fine, fine, Luo Ling, listen to me carefully: you'll regret this one day!"

Seeing that Luo Ling rejected him so decisively, Zhang Shaoyang felt a little embarrassed.

He stomped his foot hard, leaving behind a threatening remark.

"Luo Ling, one day I'll make you kneel before me and beg me to marry you!"

"We'll see!"

After saying this, Zhang Shaoyang didn't linger any longer and left with a flick of his sleeve.
