Rebooting 60, let's go on a rampage with the orange cat!

Chapter 158 Sudden Enlightenment

Upon seeing this, Ma Jianqiang was startled and quickly reached out his other hand to try to push Chen Jun away.

However, to his surprise, Chen Jun suddenly unleashed a powerful force, using the leg-binding technique he had honed as a reconnaissance soldier to tightly grip Ma Jianqiang's wrist as he held the knife.

When the pungent smell of blood entered Huai'an's nostrils, she was shocked to find that scarlet blood was gushing out from Chen Jun's clenched teeth.

Surprisingly, despite his serious injuries, Chen Jun was still panting heavily, and even had a strange smile on his face.

"Shi Huai'an, we've met again. Last time you saved someone at the hospital, and now you've saved me. You're truly admirable..."

"...Ah...that bastard...his right shoulder was dislocated before..."

Chen Jun spoke haltingly, but before he could finish, Ma Jianqiang across from him seemed to have been touched on a sore spot, and his body instinctively tilted slightly to the left by half an inch.

Witnessing this scene, Shi Huai'an was deeply moved and couldn't help but secretly admire Chen Jun.

"I never expected Dean Chen to have such formidable skills!"

Just then, Chen Jun, who had been tightly gripping the enemy, suddenly released his hands. Immediately afterwards, without hesitation, he raised his injured leg and kicked Ma Jianqiang hard in the back of the knee with all his might.

It turns out that this move was a close-combat modified technique that Chen Jun had been diligently learning at the rehabilitation center for seven months.

But it's a case of inflicting a thousand wounds on the enemy while losing eight hundred of your own.

With a sharp "crack," Ma Jianqiang, in unbearable pain, collapsed to his knees with a thud.

Almost at the same instant, Huai'an, who had been poised to strike, seized the opportunity and launched a flying kick. The sharp, whip-like leg, accompanied by a whistling sound, slashed down at Ma Jianqiang's head like lightning.

……

As the police officers' flashlights pierced the endless darkness like sharp swords, Shi Huai'an resolutely pressed his knee firmly against the neck of fugitive Ma Jianqiang.

She slightly raised her head, and glistening sweat slid down her cheeks, wetting her long, delicate eyelashes.

However, despite her exhaustion, a radiant smile bloomed on her lips as her gaze met that of the arriving detectives: "You've come just in time!"

On the other side, Chen Jun's old injury suddenly flared up due to the excessive force he exerted during the arrest operation.

His face was pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably due to weakness. He could only lean against the wall and slowly sit down on the cold ground.

Even so, he felt a sense of relief and joy.

In the past, Chen Jun has always shown tolerance and understanding in the face of Wu Yutong's willfulness and affectation.

On the one hand, perhaps it's because a man's pride and desire to save face make him unwilling to reveal the disharmony between husband and wife in front of outsiders; on the other hand, it's because they have only recently entered into marriage and are still immersed in the sweet honeymoon period of newlywed bliss.

However, Wu Yutong's ruthless betrayal struck Chen Jun like a bolt from the blue, dealing him a heavy blow.

You know, Chen Jun is someone who values ​​his reputation above all else!

Being cheated on by his wife was undoubtedly a great humiliation, something he absolutely could not tolerate.

At first, his heart was filled with struggle and pain, but strangely enough, when the thin veil covering the truth was finally ruthlessly torn away, Chen Jun suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of ease and relief.

It was as if a huge boulder weighing on his heart had vanished without a trace, allowing him to breathe the air of freedom once more.

At this moment, looking at the police officers who arrived in time and his old comrades-in-arms who had fought alongside him, his anxious heart finally calmed down a little.

With a long breath, he seemed to have suddenly lost all his strength and collapsed limply into the horrifying pool of blood.

From a nearby corner came Wu Yutong's terrified screams.

It turned out that Wu Yutong was surrounded by several wild cats with their fur standing on end and their eyes fierce. The wild cats were growling in their throats, as if they were about to attack at any moment.

She huddled in the corner, trembling uncontrollably, her face filled with fear and helplessness.

Each scream seemed to pierce the soul, evoking pity in the listener.

"Chen Jun! Chen Jun! Help me! I was wrong! Nothing really happened between him and me. We're innocent. I'm your wife! You can't abandon me..."

However, Chen Jun had already lost consciousness and was oblivious to Wu Yutong's screams.

"I envy the skin on your face, it's so well-maintained!" Shi Huai'an rolled his eyes and muttered under his breath.

Just then, Ma Jianqiang, who had just been pulled up from the ground by the police, suddenly launched an attack while everyone was off guard.

He suddenly broke free from the police officer's grasp and attempted to escape again.

In the blink of an eye, a cold glint flashed in Shi Huai'an's eyes. With a flick of his wrist, the nine-section whip he always carried flew towards Ma Jianqiang like a nimble venomous snake.

With a crisp "snap," the nine-section whip struck Ma Jianqiang's waist with perfect accuracy.

The blow was so powerful that Ma Jianqiang let out a painful howl and fell heavily to the ground like a kite with a broken string.

Seeing this, the police reacted quickly, rushed forward, tied his hands behind his back, and put shiny handcuffs on him.

They then effortlessly dragged the defenseless Ma Jianqiang away from the scene.

Meanwhile, Chen Jun, who was seriously injured, was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Fortunately, thanks to the tireless efforts of the medical staff, he was successfully pulled back from the brink of death.

Although he is temporarily out of danger, he still needs to undergo further surgery on his leg while in bed.

Wu Yutong was also taken back to the police station by the police for interrogation and detention.

Speaking of his past life, Ma Jianqiang was a lawless rebel leader back then!

For a full decade, he committed numerous evils and did all sorts of immoral things, abusing his power to oppress others at will.

Not only that, he also used extremely cruel methods to torture and interrogate innocent people, even driving many to suicide to end their suffering.

However, justice prevails, and good and evil will eventually be rewarded.

When the wave of "crushing the four-person group" swept in, the cadres who had been persecuted were finally exonerated, and Ma Jianqiang, a notorious villain, naturally could not escape the punishment of the law. He was eventually arrested and sentenced to life imprisonment.

Looking back on his life, perhaps it was a cruel twist of fate that Ma Jianqiang, who was already of questionable character, committed such a serious crime as attempted murder after being instigated by others. Undoubtedly, he will face even more severe punishment.

It seems that whether in his past life or this one, he is destined to be unable to escape that terrible fate of imprisonment!

It's just that this incident happened earlier than expected.

As for Wu Yutong, she was also partly to blame, as she should have gone to jail for instigating the crime.

But who could have imagined that just a month later, an unexpected situation would occur—after examination, it was discovered that Wu Yutong was actually pregnant!

According to relevant laws and regulations, in this special situation, the police have no choice but to take measures such as bail pending trial and other temporary supervision measures to properly handle the matter.

Upon learning this news, Chen Jun's attitude was unusually firm, stating that he was determined to divorce Wu Yutong.

He explicitly stated his demand that they immediately proceed with the divorce proceedings after Wu Yutong gives birth to the child, and that the child should be raised by Chen Jun, because he did not trust Wu Yutong's character and that such a mother would have a negative impact on the child's growth and education.

Upon hearing this, Wu Yutong's sister and her husband immediately distanced themselves from their sister. Of course, these are all plot developments to come.

During the remainder of the winter break, Shi Huai'an and his classmates reorganized a reunion and visited their former teachers, leading a happy and fulfilling life.

While Wang Xiuzhi was busy packing her luggage, Shi Renmei wholeheartedly helped Shi Yaozu familiarize himself with the work environment, sharing her connections, work experience, and tips with him without reservation.

After get off work, Wang Xiuzhi and Shi Renmei chatted, but Shi Renmei was not very happy.

Wang Xiuzhi asked, "What's wrong? Is something not going well at work?"

Shi Renmei sighed, "It's alright! It's just that Yaozu is too honest and straightforward, and he's bound to suffer some losses in the future. Right now, his colleagues don't say anything because of me, but they're all laughing at him behind his back."

“People always need to experience life in society, there’s no use in worrying. Besides, he just came from the countryside to the city, he definitely needs time to adjust. The children are all grown up, so don’t worry too much,” Xiuzhi advised.

“Yaozu is too dull, and his mother isn’t one to tolerate things. Who knows what will happen in the future? The city is not like the countryside. He might offend someone without even realizing it,” Shi Renmei said.

"Alright, he's all grown up now, not a child anymore. He'll learn from his mistakes. Don't always treat him like a kid. Look at Huai'an, he's so much younger than him, and he's doing just fine in the capital. Besides, even if you tie him to your waist, what good will it do? Yue'e might not even appreciate it." Xiuzhi said while folding clothes.

Shi Renmei shook her head and said nothing more.

Zhong Hanzhe spent his winter vacation searching for ancient architecture. He greatly admires Professor Liang, the father of modern architecture, who dedicated his life to the research and protection of ancient Chinese architecture.

Professor Liang compiled the "National Catalogue of Cultural Relics and Ancient Buildings," which has greatly protected China's ancient architectural relics and city walls.

However, during the Cultural Revolution, Professor Liang was criticized as a typical example of "retro" and his home was ransacked, with all his collected books and materials confiscated.

In J City, there are many ancient pavilions, towers and old buildings. Every day, Zhong Hanzhe carries a green sketchbook to draw, photograph and record the old buildings, and numbers them. He also travels around to copy down the stories and legends related to each old building, along with local chronicles and county chronicles.

After organizing the materials and returning to Beijing, Zhong Hanzhe planned to secretly visit Professor Liang. Just in case, he wrote a letter in advance to remind Professor Liang to hide some valuable materials to avoid them being confiscated during a house raid.

He would occasionally visit Yu Tao's leak-proof team to provide guidance before the Lunar New Year. Now, Zhong Hanzhe has completely withdrawn from the leak-proof team's shares, since his ambitions lie elsewhere.

When Zhong Hanzhe learned that Shi's parents were also going to the capital with Huai'an and would give their jobs to Shi Yaozu, he was very surprised. Although Huai'an had taken over his adoptive father's job in his previous life, it was only after he returned to the city from the countryside ten years later that he took over the job.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Shi retired so soon and moved to Beijing with his daughter to accompany her to study, which was completely different from the trajectory of his previous life.

Chung Han-che couldn't help but feel a little anxious and uncertain, and he had mixed feelings about it.

However, despite his best efforts, Chung Han-che was unable to find out Shih Huai-an's exact departure date, which forced him to change his original plans.

After careful consideration, he decided to return to the provincial capital first and take advantage of the Spring Festival to extend his early New Year greetings to the leaders of the leather goods factory.

In this way, you can not only strengthen your relationship with them and accumulate valuable connections, but also lay a solid foundation for your future development.

Having lived two lives, Wallace Chung is well-versed in human relationships and can handle them with ease.

At this moment, he knew that matters of the heart could not be forced. He could only focus on his own growth and improvement, and become stronger and more capable, so that he could provide substantial help to his beloved Shi Huai'an at crucial moments.

Because no matter the era, a man who has achieved success in his career will always be respected and admired by others; conversely, if a man is only indulging in infatuation without doing anything, he will eventually become the object of ridicule.

Before leaving, Wallace Chung made a special trip home to say goodbye to his family.

Because he has been studying away from home for a long time, he rarely stays at home. But perhaps it is precisely because of this distance that his relationship with his family has become more harmonious and peaceful.

The younger siblings, in particular, held their elder brother, who was studying at a university in Beijing, in high esteem and admiration.

Mom carefully carried the steaming pot of mushroom and bean stewed chicken to the table and gently put it down.

The aroma instantly filled the air, and the children, as if under a spell, quickly gathered around.

"Wow, it smells so good!" the children exclaimed in unison. On the table was a pot of fragrant mushroom and chicken stew, next to which was a plate of golden-brown fried fish, as well as plump white radishes, golden pumpkins, and lush green vegetables.

In an era of extreme scarcity, such a meal was nothing short of a lavish feast.

"Mom, where's the chicken leg? I can't see it!" The little sister asked impatiently, picking up her chopsticks and scooping around in the bowl.

"Oh dear, it's all soy sauce and there's hardly any chicken." She pouted in disappointment.

With a crisp "smack," Mom's hand landed lightly on her little sister's hand, and she said with a hint of reproach, "You have no manners! This bean curd is something I worked hard to get from someone else, and this is all I have. If you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it!"

After saying that, Mom turned around and went into the kitchen, where she brought out two more bowls of steaming chicken soup.

A plump, golden chicken leg lay quietly in the soup, gleaming with an enticing sheen.
