The beauty has gotten into trouble!

"Brother Chen... are you alright?"

The matter subsided, and the onlookers dispersed.

Only Tian Xiaohui, Li Yan, and Ye Chen remained in the courtyard.

Seeing that things were not going well, Liu Changjun had already taken the opportunity to slip away.

Tian Xiaohui relaxed and quickly moved closer to Ye Chen, tightly gripping his arm.

I still feel a bit scared.

If Ye Chen is really arrested, how will he live in the future?

How should I explain Luo Ling going home with Qian Jiali?

At the same time, Tian Xiaohui also noticed Ye Chen's change and was slightly surprised.

Is this still the same taciturn drunkard I remember?

With just a few words, they silenced the scoundrel, cleared him of suspicion, and even managed to subdue the county's security team.

Such a courageous, resourceful, and responsible man.

Is he really the ex-husband she remembers?

A mix of emotions welled up inside her, and Tian Xiaohui unconsciously tightened her grip.

"Don't be afraid, even if the sky falls, I'll still be here for you!"

Ye Chen gently comforted her, assuming that Tian Xiaohui was simply frightened.

As he spoke, he even reached out and tidied Tian Xiaohui's hair.

Seeing their loving relationship made Tian Xiaohui blush and her heart race.

He quickly called out, "Don't move! There are people around!"

Seeing Tian Xiaohui's face flushed pink and her shy expression, Ye Chen was in a great mood and laughed heartily.

Since his transmigration, this was the first time he had seen his ex-wife act so feminine.

All my hard work over the past few days has not been in vain.

Finally, we're seeing some signs of a return.

"Brother Li, thank you so much for what you did earlier. If you hadn't spoken up for me and vouched for me, I'm afraid I would have had to waste a lot more time explaining!"

With relief, Ye Chen turned to look at Li Yan and thanked him softly.

"Please tell Uncle Li that I, Ye Chen, will definitely pay him a visit to express my gratitude another day. If someone treats me with respect, I will treat them with even greater respect. If you ever need anything in the future, brother, just let me know!"

"Brother Ye Chen, then I won't trouble you any further. You and your wife chat some more; I'll take my leave now!"

Li Yan blinked, gave Ye Chen a knowing look, said goodbye, and immediately turned and left.

"Look at you...aren't you making people misunderstand?"

Tian Xiaohui playfully punched Ye Chen, then said shyly.

Then, thinking of Ye Chen's audacity in not returning home in the old forest at midnight, Tian Xiaohui, who had just withdrawn her hand, pounded it a few more times.

"And you're getting bolder and bolder. What kind of place is that old forest? Countless hunters have fallen there. It's teeming with insects, tigers, and leopards. You think you're so brave?"

"Have you considered that there are three women waiting for you at home?"

"What if you don't come back? How will the three of us women survive?"

Tian Xiaohui became more and more agitated as she spoke, and finally burst into tears, unable to control the grievances in her heart any longer.

In just one day and one night, how many times did I live in fear and apprehension?

Why does Ye Chen insist on hunting?

Can't you just give yourself a break?

"Xiaohui, I'm sorry, I was wrong before. I promise, if I have to spend the night in the mountains again, I'll definitely tell you in advance, okay?"

"You want a next time?"

"Xiaohui, believe me. Since I dared to go into the mountains, I have my reasons. I'll definitely be fine, okay?"

Ye Chen put his arm around Tian Xiaohui's shoulder and gently comforted her.

"With such a beautiful woman like you waiting for me, I'll crawl back from this old forest, even if I have to!"

"Are you afraid I won't come back? Is it because you don't trust your man's abilities, or because you don't trust your own charm?"

"Pah, shameless! We're divorced, who are you to call your husband?"

Ye Chen's teasing made Tian Xiaohui's face turn even redder. She spat fiercely and was about to throw another punch.

This time, however, Ye Chen was prepared. He grabbed Tian Xiaohui's wrist and pulled her into his arms.

"ah……"

Caught off guard, Tian Xiaohui gasped in surprise, lost her balance, and fell into Ye Chen's arms.

That familiar temperature made Tian Xiaohui's heart race and her whole body go limp.

Where would I find the strength to stand up?

"Xiaohui, I know you're worried about me. I've said it before, from now on, no one will be able to bully you!"

"I promise I'll make sure you live a good life, believe me, okay?"

Ye Chen seized the opportunity, grabbed Tian Xiaohui by the waist, and seeing that she offered no resistance, he became even bolder.

As his hand moved down, about to reach those stunningly perky breasts, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door.

"Xiaohui, has Ye Chen returned?"

"Oh no! Sister Jiali is surrounded by people while selling medicine!"

Luo Ling's anxious voice came over, and before Ye Chen and Tian Xiaohui could react, she had already pushed open the courtyard gate and rushed in.

"you……"

Luo Ling froze when she saw Ye Chen and Tian Xiaohui hugging each other.

Startled by her shout, Tian Xiaohui's heart raced, and she quickly pushed Ye Chen away.

"Luo Ling, what did you say happened to Jiali?"

"What exactly happened?"

To change the subject, Tian Xiaohui quickly asked another question.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ling realized what was happening and said anxiously.

"This morning, Jiali and I went to the next village to sell medicine. We went to several villages, but we didn't get any business."

"In the end, Sister Jiali went to Qianjia Village, insisting that it was her hometown and that her father was away, so she was sure she could sell the medicine."

"As soon as Sister Jiali entered the village, she was surrounded by people who insisted that she was selling fake medicine and wanted to arrest her."

"Sister Jiali said she'd try to stall for time and told me to hurry back and get reinforcements. Ye Chen, now that you're here, you can't just stand by and do nothing, can you?"

As Luo Ling finished speaking, she glanced at Ye Chen.

After all, Qian Jiali was selling medicine for the sake of the family this time. Before, Ye Chen was living a life of debauchery and couldn't be relied on.

Now, we can't just stand by and do nothing anymore, can we?

"lead the way!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Chen urged him directly.

As he spoke, he picked up the hunting rifle leaning against the wall and slung it over his shoulder.

No wonder the three women have been acting mysteriously these past few days; they were thinking of starting their own business.

No matter what, Jiali is still his woman. How could anyone else want to bully her?

Ask yourself if you agree first!

"you……"

Ye Chen's decisiveness surprised Luo Ling.

Is this still the same drunkard I remember?

"Time is of the essence, what are you still standing there for?"

It wasn't until Ye Chen frowned and urged her that Luo Ling reacted and quickly came to Ye Chen's side.

Seeing this, Tian Xiaohui didn't dare to stay behind and followed after him.

"Wait for me!"

A man and two women ran swiftly towards Chenjia Village.

……

Chenjia Village, at the village entrance.

Thirty to fifty villagers gathered and surrounded Qian Jiali.

"Jiali, you're married now, why are you still selling fake medicine in the village? Even your father doesn't dare to cheat anymore, how dare you do this?"

"Your whole family are ungrateful wretches, selling fake medicine and cheating people everywhere, and now you dare to do it openly?"

"Stop wasting your breath on him. If you ask me, just call the police and arrest him first!"

The villagers who were once helped by Qian Jiali's father now look angry.

Her words were full of accusations, as if Qian Jiali were an irredeemable villain!

"Make way, the police are here!"

The crowd suddenly stirred, and Zhao Changshun, dressed in uniform, reappeared with Dong Hao.

The two received a tip on their way back, which is why they rushed to Qianjia Village immediately.

After learning the whole story from the villagers, Zhao Changshun walked up to Qian Jiali with a stern face.

"You are suspected of selling counterfeit drugs. Come with us!"

Zhao Changshun was acting in an official capacity; as he spoke, he had already pulled out silver handcuffs from his waist.
