I, reborn, really don't want to be a matchmaker!

On the right-hand country road, Wang Xiaoli wasn't alone; her younger brother Wang Xiaojun and father Wang Deshun were also there.

Judging from the way they were carrying gifts like cigarettes and alcohol, something's definitely up.

It was these gifts of cigarettes and alcohol that made Cao Bing lower his guard: "Chaoyang, are they your relatives?"

"No, we're just acquaintances," Qin Chaoyang replied.

"Then you go see them and ask them what they want from you, and then we'll go to Li Mei's house," Cao Bing suggested.

"Okay!" Qin Chaoyang nodded and walked quickly toward the main country road where Wang Xiaoli was.

Cao Bing took out a cigarette, lit it, and then stared at the pretty Wang Xiaoli.

This scene was witnessed by Wang Ba, who was hiding in the shadows. With a wave of his hand, he led the charge towards Cao Cao's soldiers: "Attack!"

As soon as he finished speaking, five armed police officers appeared around Cao Bing.

They moved with incredible speed, and before Cao's soldiers could react, they had tackled them to the ground and handcuffed them.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" Cao Bing struggled desperately, then roared back.

Wang Xiaoli, Wang Xiaojun, and Wang Deshun, who were on the country road, were stunned by this sudden scene and stood there dumbfounded.

"Hmph! What!" Wang Bayi replied coldly, "Cao Bing, you still think you can get away with this? Do you think the police at Jiyu Police Station are idiots?"

The moment the name "Cao Bing" was uttered, Cao Bing was stunned, and a sense of panic immediately spread through his heart.

But he remained defiant: "I...I don't know what you're talking about. I'm Liu Bo, not Cao Bing."

"Really?" A tall policeman took out a yellowed newspaper, turned on his flashlight, and compared Cao Bing's appearance with the wanted criminal in the newspaper.

The results came out after just one comparison.

The "Liu Bo" who was arrested in front of us is 100% Cao Bing, who is wanted by the newspaper with a reward offered for his capture.

Because the scar on his forehead and his gloomy eyes were almost identical.

This time, Cao Bing stopped being stubborn. He looked shakily at Qin Chaoyang who was walking towards him and asked, "You... how did you find out I'm a wanted criminal?"

"It's simple, I saw your arrest warrant in the newspaper," Qin Chaoyang replied softly.

"That happened several years ago, how could you possibly remember?" Cao Bing roared.

Clearly, he suspected that Qin Chaoyang was just giving him the runaround.

"Sorry, I have an excellent memory, especially for people's appearances. I can remember someone after seeing them only once," Qin Chaoyang replied with a smile. "And your appearance is very unique, so the moment Aunt Wang brought you to my house, I knew who you were."

"This is impossible, this is impossible..." Cao Bing gritted his teeth, wishing he could devour Qin Chaoyang alive.

But no matter how angry or resentful.

At this point, he had no way to deal with Qin Chaoyang.

To avoid suffering more before his death, he compromised and asked Wang Bayi, "I can confess to everything I've done, but can you let me see my wife and children one last time?"

"Where are your wife and children?" Wang Bayi asked, frowning.

"I worked at a private brick factory called..."

Before Cao Bing could finish speaking, Qin Chaoyang interrupted him: "Instructor Wang, don't listen to his nonsense. If Cao Bing truly cared about his wife and children, why would he come to my mother to act as a matchmaker for Li Mei?"

"This is clearly an attempt to play the victim and mislead the public."

"I didn't!!!" Cao Bing denied hysterically.

His forehead veins bulged with anger.

"No?" Qin Chaoyang laughed in exasperation. "Then let me ask you, what was your purpose in going on this blind date with Li Mei?"

"We kidnapped her and sold her to the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang for three thousand yuan to do hard labor." Cao Bing hesitated for several seconds before answering truthfully.

Upon hearing this, everyone present, including Wang Bayi and Wang Xiaoli, was stunned and speechless.

After all, they never imagined that Cao Bing's purpose in arranging a blind date with Li Mei was to abduct and sell her.

If this were to be told to others, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

But this is the truth, the truth as told by Cao Bing.

After regaining his senses, Qin Chaoyang couldn't help but ask Cao Bing, "You're involved in human trafficking, Li Mei isn't the first, is she?"

"How did you know?" Cao Bing looked at Qin Chaoyang in surprise.

He then realized that Qin Chaoyang was not simple, at least not the honest person he had described.

"I could tell from the calm and collected way you came to my house today," Qin Chaoyang replied, then glanced at the sky: "Instructor Wang, take this wanted criminal away!"

"Oh right! Remember my 1,000 yuan reward?"

"Hahaha... I'll remember that." Wang Bayi laughed, patted Qin Chaoyang on the shoulder, and then led his men away, escorting Cao Bing and his heavy halberds.

Wang Deshun watched them disappear into the night: "Chaoyang, what just happened almost scared me to death. If something like this happens again, could you at least give me a heads-up beforehand?"

"Alright! Alright!" Qin Chaoyang smiled at Wang Deshun's relieved expression. "Village Chief Wang, what are you doing in Wanhe Village so late, carrying cigarettes and alcohol?"

"This..." Wang Deshun hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Wang Xiaoli didn't know what to say.

Upon seeing this, Wang Xiaojun, who was about ten years old, immediately said, "My dad came to ask you to be his matchmaker."

"A matchmaker?" Qin Chaoyang was quite surprised. "A matchmaker for whom? Your sister?"

"It wasn't me," Wang Xiaoli said anxiously.

"Hehe...it's really not my sister." Wang Xiaojun chuckled and agreed.

"Who is that?" Qin Chaoyang asked curiously.

"It's my cousin." After making sure no one was around, Wang Xiaoli whispered, "Chuyang, to tell you the truth, after you left Toad Village, that Zhao Hu came to bother me again, threatening to kill himself right at my doorstep."

"My parents saw that things couldn't go on like this, so they discussed it with Zhao Hu's parents and decided to find Zhao Hu a partner so that the partner could keep Zhao Hu in check."

"But the problem is, are you so sure Zhao Hu will take a liking to your cousin? That your cousin will agree to go on a blind date with Zhao Hu?" Qin Chaoyang asked, both amused and exasperated, after understanding why Wang Xiaoli had come to him.

To be honest, he strongly disagreed with this short-sighted approach.

The information in the virtual pop-up window indicated that Zhao Hu only had eyes for Wang Xiaoli, making it extremely difficult for other girls to win his heart.

"My cousin has already agreed, after all, Zhao Hu's family is well-off," Wang Xiaoli replied.

"As for Zhao Hu, his parents will do some persuasion," Wang Deshun added. "Chaoyang, all you need to do is help choose a good day and go to Zhao Hu's house to act as matchmaker."

"No problem," Qin Chaoyang readily agreed.

He had been to Zhao Hu's house before, and once you've been there, you become familiar with him. He believed that Zhao Hu wouldn't make things difficult for him.

"No problem, then it's settled." Wang Deshun smiled and handed the gifts of cigarettes and alcohol to Qin Chaoyang: "Keep these safe, don't be offended by them."

"How could I possibly dislike a gift from Village Chief Wang?" Qin Chaoyang joked with a smile, then said goodbye and hurried home.
