Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Chen Guilan looked at Chu Yu with suspicion, her gaze lingering on her face.

Only then did they realize that there were indeed traces of crying in the corners of Chu Yu's eyes, and the faint tear stains had not completely disappeared.

Upon closer inspection, Chu Yu's pupils were bloodshot, and her eyelids were red and swollen, indicating that she had been crying for a long time.

Chen Guilan said with heartache, "Chu Yu, something bad must have happened to you. Tell me."

"Don't try to handle this alone. Chen Dong knows a lot of people around here. I can ask them for help."

"For Chen Dong's sake, I can definitely help you solve your problem."

"If you trust me, pour out your heart and don't bottle it up."

Under Chen Guilan's patient questioning and warm comforting, Chu Yu could no longer hold back.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she completely broke down emotionally.

Her shoulders trembled violently, and the long-suppressed pain poured out like a flood.

As she cried, she recounted everything that had happened the night before, every word filled with endless pain and anger.

Upon hearing this, Chen Guilan's eyes widened in shock, her face filled with disbelief.

She never imagined that the reason behind Chu Yu moving out and not living with her husband was such a terrible one.

"That Meng Zhengguo is actually a beast who even harbors ill intentions towards his stepdaughter!"

Chen Guilan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, secretly rejoicing that thanks to Chu Yu's intervention, Meng Zhengguo's beastly behavior was not allowed to succeed.

A surge of intense anger welled up within her, while at the same time she felt a deep pang of heartache for Chu Yu.

Chen Guilan calmed down and asked Chu Yu seriously, "Did you keep any evidence of the liquid?"

"This is crucial. If we have evidence, we can ensure he receives the punishment he deserves."

Chu Yu was stunned, looking at Chen Guilan in surprise, and stammered, "Guilan, you, you want me to report that beast?"

A hint of hesitation and fear was visible in her eyes.

After all, this is an extremely difficult thing to talk about; it takes immense courage for her to reveal her most painful experience to the public.

Chen Guilan nodded firmly and said seriously, "Even if you are married, the woman has the right to refuse to have sex with you."

“What Meng Zhengguo did was rape, which is illegal.”

"As long as you sue him and have evidence of the liquid, you can definitely get him to serve at least a year in jail, and then you can have some peace of mind for a while."

“We cannot let these bad people get away with it. You must bravely stand up and protect yourself.”

Chu Yu hesitated. She lowered her head and pondered for a long time.

She was struggling internally, on the one hand longing for Meng Zhengguo to be punished.

On the other hand, they are afraid of facing those cumbersome legal procedures and the strange looks from others.

In the end, she shook her head and rejected Chen Guilan's suggestion.

She gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred, and said, "Right now I just want to teach him a lesson. If he still doesn't change his ways, then we'll do it your way."

"I want him to taste the pain first, so he'll know I'm not someone to be trifled with."

Although Chen Guilan felt somewhat helpless, she nodded understandingly and agreed to Chu Yu's request.

She knew that Chu Yu needed time to adjust her mindset and an outlet to vent her anger.

Three days later, Chen Guilan saw the monkey in front of the shop. It was wandering around the street as usual.

The monkey was wearing a flashy shirt, had a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and was followed by several henchmen, looking quite nonchalant.

Monkey is the local gang leader with four or five henchmen, and his boss, Tiger, is Chen Dong's friend.

Chen Guilan quickly called out to Monkey, saying, "Monkey, I need to talk to you about something."

The monkey walked over with a grin, a hint of nonchalance on its face, and asked, "Sister Chen, what's up? Just tell me what you need."

"As long as it's not too troublesome, I'll definitely get it done for you."

Chen Guilan said with a serious expression, "I want to ask you to teach someone a lesson. His name is Meng Zhengguo. He did some heinous things."

“He bullied my friend, and I can’t let this go.”

Monkey patted his chest and assured her, "No problem, Sister Chen! For Tiger and Dong's sake, I'll definitely get this done for you!"

"Tell me, how do you want to teach him a lesson? Do you want to beat him up, or teach him a lesson he won't forget?"

A sly glint flashed in his eyes; he was quite interested in this kind of "teaching a lesson" thing.

Not only can they legitimately vent their anger by hitting someone, but they might also be able to extort some money from them.

Moreover, these kinds of things often involve powerful backers providing support.

Dong Ge has a very good relationship with his boss Tiger Brother's boss, Third Sister.

And the third sister is a powerful figure in the entire Nanjiang County, a figure who controls the underworld.

Chen Guilan lowered her voice and briefly explained Meng Zhengguo's situation.

Then he instructed, "Don't cause any deaths. Just teach him a lesson and let him know what's what."

"Don't be too harsh, but don't be too lenient either. Let him learn his lesson."

The monkey nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Sister Chen, I know what I'm doing."

"I can't stand this kind of trash who bullies women."

“I’ll definitely let him know that bullying people in this area comes at a price.”

After saying that, he left with a mischievous grin on his face.

As they walked, he discussed with his underlings how to plan the impending lesson.

The morning sun was somewhat lazy, freely shining on the streets and alleys of Nanjiang County, adding a filter to this small town.

The monkey, accompanied by its few henchmen, swaggered through the streets and alleys.

They wore brightly colored, outlandish costumes, and their tattoos were either grotesque or bizarre.

Appearing and disappearing in the dappled shadows of the trees, each step was arrogant and domineering.

Passersby turned their heads and kept their distance from them, afraid of getting into trouble.

At this moment, they had only one goal—the No. 1 Cannery in Nanjiang County, the place where Meng Zhengguo worked.

Based on the information provided by Sister Chen Guilan, they found the gate of the cannery without much trouble.

People were coming and going at the factory gate. The workers had finished their morning work and were walking out in groups to go to lunch, creating a noisy and busy scene.

With a wave of his hand, the monkey led his underlings to the door, blocking several workers who were heading off for lunch like a wall.

"Hey, you guys!"

The monkey shouted at the top of its lungs, its voice sharp and piercing, its face displaying an unyielding ferocity, and a wicked smile playing on its lips.

"Hey guys, we want to ask you about someone. Is there a workshop foreman named Meng Zhengguo working here? Where is he?"

The workers who were stopped looked panicked, exchanged glances, and their eyes were full of unease.
