The whip was being swung left and right, followed by loud crackles every time it hit the ground. The once-enthusiastic assaulters who eagerly beat up Liu Xiuyun and her family suddenly became mute. All of them either hid from the weapon or cried out in pain when it came in contact with their skin. However, neither voiced their protest.
Han Yongfang pointed at them with the whip and said, “Look at you lot— back when the enemy’s military breached into our village, all of you were as obedient as dogs. And now, once the enemy is no longer present, you prance around the place and bully the villagers whenever you like.”
Someone in the crowd retorted that they were still young back then, so it had nothing to do with them.
With a ‘pop’ sound, Han Yongfang swung the whip accurately, “You all are the same! Did I ask you to retort my words?!”
Zhao Guilian helped Zhao Guixiang escape. Fortunately, at this time, she was dressed thickly and both were not severely injured, but there were still traces of blood.
“Secretary Head, Liu Guifa was the one hitting us, so you have to seek justice for us!”
Han Yongfang, regardless of gender, was angry as he swung his whip again, hitting both Zhao Guilian and Zhao Guixiang.
“The Secretary Head is beating people up, he’s beating us—”
Han Yonglu and Han Qingfeng also rushed over with their men, “Brother, what are you doing?”
Han Yonglu hurried to grab Han Yongfang’s whip.
Han Yongfang didn’t even let him try. Once he was mad, anyone and everyone deserved a beating. He swung his whip towards Han Yonglu, “You useless twat! Do you think because I haven’t been pushed to my limits for a couple of years that I would be weak in the face of violence?! Do I look like a toy for you to push around?”
Han Yonglu was being chased around with the weapon. Not daring to retaliate, he quickly begged for forgiveness, “Brother, brother, I was wrong, I was wrong. Stop hitting, stop hitting me.
Han Qingfeng was dissatisfied, so he went ahead to try and capture Han Yongfang’s whip by himself.
However, Han Yongfang did not come by himself. After all, besides the Brigade Leader, there was even a group of young men who followed him.
Seeing that Han Qingfeng was about to move, they immediately stopped him.
Han Qingfeng sneered.
Han Yongfang slammed the whip on the ground and the crackle of it rang through the air, “What, you’re unsatisfied? Do you really think that you are my opponent? Have you ever been a soldier? Do you think that I went sightseeing during my time as a soldier? During the war with the Japanese Army, you were still a goddamned leech that sucked onto your mother’s shit! “
“Uncle, even if you are an elder, you can’t insult people !” Han Qingfeng’s face was as hard as iron.
Han Yongfang sneered, “Did I insult you?”
Han Qingfeng said straightforwardly, “Liu Xiuyun had behaved immorally and indulged in indecent practices before marriage. The fact remains true and that should be an act which deserves punishment.”
Han Yongfang stared at the father-son pair and asked, “Then what about evidence?”
Han Qingfeng took out the reporting letter that was written by Youth Chen, “He was the one who saw it at the County Hospital and is willing to be the witness. If that is insufficient, we can take Liu Xiuyun to the County Hospital to have a checkup.”
At this time, Lin Lan’s clear voice resonated,”Who claimed that they did anything wrong? Youth Chen and Liu Xiuyun are about to get married.”
