Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife - Chapter 118

Chapter 118: You Harm Me
Li Chenmo lowered his head, looked at the way their fingers were intertwined, and smiled. Just as they were enjoying their sweet moment, the villagers in the neighboring production team were awakened by the commotion near the abandoned granary.

“Stop running, or we will shoot!” a police officer yelled as he chased a man who was running fast in panic.

As the man ran, he kept turning back and shouting, “I didn’t do it! You got the wrong person!”

BANG!

“Argh!” The man screamed and fell to the ground. He was shot in the thigh by the officers.

Before he could stand up, the police had already caught up with him and restricted his movement.

“Sun Gang, you are arrested for a murder attempt.” The officer said as he put handcuffs on him.

“Let me go! You found the wrong person, it wasn’t me!” Sun Gang shouted while struggling.

“We already have evidence of your crime, you’d better follow us obediently!”

The officer pulled him up from the ground and took him to the county town police station. When Sun Gang walked past the abandoned granary, he saw a group of people peeking at him from the window. His eyes turned red when he saw the man with scars on his face.

At first, the man gave him 100 yuan to cover up his crime. He thought it was just a small thing and agreed to take responsibility. But when police said he was suspected of attempted murder, he understood the situation and ran away due to fear. The penalty for attempted murder is a lifetime prison! He cannot waste his life for others.

Suddenly he struggled and shouted, “It was them! It was those people in the abandoned granary who did it! I was slandered!”

When Brother Wang and his party heard this, they were stunned and quickly ran towards the mountain. When the officers saw them running away, they chased them, leaving one officer behind to guard Sun Gang.

Seeing them running away like startled birds, Sun Gang was satisfied. Since they dared to lie and use him as a scapegoat, they can only blame themselves for being brought down by him!

After two hours of pursuit, the officers finally captured Brother Wang and his cronies. The villagers were stunned as they watched them being pushed into the police truck. Except for Brother Wang, everyone in the group lives in this village. Their families were shocked when they saw they were arrested.

“Husband! Where do you want to take my husband away?!” a woman shouted while chasing the police truck.

When the villagers saw the woman, one of them said, “Sister-in-law, you shouldn’t run with your condition. What would you do if something went wrong with the baby in your belly because of running?”

“Uncles and aunties, do you know why my husband was taken away by the officers?” she asked worriedly.

The villagers looked at each other and said, “The officers said your husband is a suspect in an attempted murder case.”

“What?! Impossible! Even if my husband is lazy and likes gambling, he won’t have the courage to kill anyone.” The woman shouted and collapsed not long after due to shock.

Everyone was shocked when they saw her suddenly fainting, and quickly took her back to her home.

At the same time, in the town hospital, Huang Yuanfeng was lying on the bed with thick bandages on her head and legs. She stared blankly at the ceiling. Sitting beside her bed were Han Yuheng, Du Jiawen and a female officer.

“Comrade Huang, can you tell me what happened?” the officer asked.

After waiting for a while, Huang Yuanfeng still didn’t utter a word. The officer asked again, “Comrade Huang, do you know the man who attacked you?”

This time, Huang Yuanfeng’s pupils dilated and she suddenly shouted, “Ah!! Let me go! Don’t touch me! Someone please save me! Save me!”

They were startled by her sudden outburst and didn’t know what to do. Not long after, several nurses and a doctor rushed over and held her down while she kept shouting.

“Bastard, I’ll kill you! Don’t touch me! Let me go!!!” Huang Yuanfeng shouted, with obvious hatred and fear on her face.

While the nurse held her down, the doctor quickly injected a sedative. It didn’t take long for her to slowly calm down. As her consciousness gradually drifted away, she muttered in a low voice, “Sister Su… you harm me.”

The officer’s eyes narrowed at her words. She took out her notebook and wrote down her words.

“Officer, the patient is mentally unstable. I don’t think she is suitable for questioning,” the doctor said while shaking his head.

“I understand.” The officer nodded and left the ward.

Outside the ward, Han Yuheng sighed, patted Du Jiawen on the shoulder and said, “Comrade Du, I will leave her in your care. After all, in her current condition, it is better for her fiancé to take care of her.”

Du Jiawen’s face was gloomy when he heard Han Yuheng’s words. He looked at Huang Yuanfeng with eyes full of disgust and disdain through the door. Even when she was chaste, he didn’t think she was good enough for him. What’s more, now she has been defiled by an unknown man. This time, he had to write a letter to inform his parents. He will not marry such a woman!

With Du Jiawen staying to take care of Huang Yuanfeng, Han Yuheng returned to the village with a heavy heart. He hopes the officer can catch the murderer and solve the case. He looked at the dark sky and sighed. The year ended on a bad note. He hopes the new year will be better.

Early the next morning, Lu Jueyu woke up before dawn. She went to the bathroom, and then entered her own space. After taking a hot bath, she went to the warehouse to get canned fruit, milk candies, fruit candies, maltose, roasted nuts, roasted seeds, and some biscuits. She also went to her room to prepare red envelopes for her nieces and nephews.
