Chapter 14: My Brother Instigated Me to Hit People

The police officer said, “You don’t have to pay, your family will pay. You, and you, you are all her family, discuss it among yourselves.”

After saying that, the four of them pulled up a stool and sat down, not intending to get involved, waiting for them to come up with a solution.

Ye Zhengguo widened his eyes and said, “We were the ones who got beaten up, and we still have to compensate ourselves?”

One of the police officers said, “You can also choose not to compensate, didn’t we say you can discuss it among yourselves?”

Discuss it among yourselves, meaning Xie Lin’an will ask for money?

This demon, he’ll be a ghost if he pays.

“Xie Lin’an, your wife hit people, you…”

“Hmph, I’m not going to pay.” Before she could finish, Xie Lin’an immediately stated his position.

They didn’t dare to confront Xie Lin’an, so they had to continue to seek help from the police officer, “We reported it, you have to help us, make him pay.”

“Sorry, our police station doesn’t have that authority, we suggest you go to court and sue, let the judge decide on the compensation.”

Ye Zhengguo’s family’s faces turned black.

Is court so easy to go to? Not to mention the time and effort involved in a lawsuit, it also costs money. Maybe the compensation they get back won’t even cover the expenses, and they’ll also waste time.

“Does this mean it’s okay to hit people and get away with it?” Ye Zhengguo asked angrily.

“Didn’t we suggest you go to court?”

“Court is too troublesome.”

“Then you can just forget about it.”

“We can’t forget about it.” Sun Qing and Ye Xiaoqiang spoke at the same time.

Ye Xiaochun also said, “There’s no such thing as a daughter hitting her parents, we can’t just let it go.”

At this time, Xie Lin’an sneered and said, “I also think we can’t just let it go.”

Everyone: “…” He also thinks we can’t just let it go?

Ye Xiaoqiang was furious, “Of course we can’t just let it go, you have the nerve to speak. Don’t think we don’t know it was you who instigated Ye Xiaozhen to hit people.”

“Kid, be careful, I’ll sue you for slander.”

“Hmph, how do you know I’m slandering you?”

Xie Lin’an said, “I’ll ask Xiaozhen in front of everyone, and we’ll know.”

Yes, just ask her why she hit people.

Everyone quieted down and watched Xie Lin’an turn to ask Ye Xiaozhen.

Xie Lin’an half-squatted down, first he reached out and touched Ye Xiaozhen’s head, then he softly asked her, “Xiaozhen, tell brother who taught you to hit people?”

Everyone in the house and outside got goosebumps.

Is this still the “killer star” who cursed his wives, the most terrifying demon in the ten miles and eight villages, Xie Lin’an?

So many people watched him grow up, but they had never heard him speak so softly.

Ye Xiaozhen was also struggling to act, but since she had already embarked on this path, she could only grit her teeth and continue.

“My brother taught me.”

What?

Brother?

Everyone looked at Ye Xiaoqiang.

Ye Xiaoqiang widened his eyes and shouted, “Impossible, I didn’t instigate her.”

“Isn’t he your only brother?”

“He was my only brother before, but now she’s married, Xie Linli and Xie Linqi are also her brothers, maybe they instigated her.”

Everyone thought it made sense.

Ye Zhengguo and Sun Qing also yelled, “It must have been Xie Lin’an’s two younger brothers who instigated her.”

“Xiaozhen, quickly tell Dad, which brother instigated you?”

Ye Xiaozhen said, “It was Ye Xiaoqiang’s brother.”

Everyone: “…”

Ye Xiaoqiang: “…”

“You’re talking nonsense, when did I instigate you?”

Ye Xiaozhen continued, “Brother said, beat up the bad guys, brother told me to beat up the bad guys.”

“I didn’t, shut up.”

“My brother told me to beat up the bad guys.”

Xie Lin’an laughed.

Ye Xiaoqiang was so angry that his face turned red, he kept saying he didn’t.

The whole Ye family was in an uproar, they were so angry that they completely forgot the police were there, they kept calling Ye Xiaozhen a dead girl, a fool, a little beast, a wretch…

These foul words came out, and the police officers were stunned.

She was a fool, but she was their daughter after all, how could they curse her so badly?

But no matter what they said, Ye Xiaozhen would only repeat one sentence, “My brother told me to beat up the bad guys.”

“My brother told me to beat up the bad guys.”

This sentence echoed in Ye Xiaoqiang’s ears like a spell.

“Shut up, shut up.” He waved his arms and legs, looking ferocious and furious, he wanted to hit Ye Xiaozhen.

But he was like a skinny chicken, Xie Lin’an caught him with one hand.

Then the two police officers who were sitting down immediately stepped forward and restrained him.

“I’m telling you, she’s fine for hitting people, but if you hit people, you’ll go to jail.”

Ye Xiaoqiang was immediately scared and calmed down.

Ye Zhengguo was afraid that his son would really go to jail, so he quickly persuaded him, “Xiaoqiang, calm down, it’s not worth it to send yourself to jail for a crazy person.”

This was just the beginning, there was more to come that would really make their whole family explode.

At this time, the police officer said again, “If you really instigated her, then you’ll have to take responsibility.”

Ye Xiaoqiang: “…”

“Didn’t you guys yell about arresting her and locking her up? She’s mentally ill, she’s not responsible, you can sue him, you can still get him arrested and locked up for a few days.”

Ye Zhengguo and Sun Qing were dumbfounded.

The villagers behind them all laughed.

One of them said, “Ye Zhengguo, are you willing to have your precious son arrested?”

Arrest their precious son?

Of course they wouldn’t be willing.

“Isn’t his behavior considered instigation?”

The police officer continued to educate everyone, “It’s more serious than instigation, it’s called indirect perpetrator.”

“What the hell is an indirect perpetrator?”

“It’s not a ghost, simply put, if Ye Xiaoqiang instigated Ye Xiaozhen to beat someone to death, Ye Xiaozhen wouldn’t be held criminally responsible, but Ye Xiaoqiang, who instigated her, would be held criminally responsible.”

“So that means it’s like Ye Xiaoqiang killed the person?”

“That’s pretty much the meaning.”

The faces of the Ye family of four were ashen.

Sun Qing said, “You can’t just believe her word, she’s a fool, she’s just slandering her brother.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a villager stood up and said, “Hey, she’s not slandering him, Ye Xiaoqiang really instigated his older sister to hit people, I saw it with my own eyes.”

Sun Qing wanted to spit blood, where did this Cheng Yaojin come from?

“You saw it with your own eyes?”

“Yes, I saw it with my own eyes, because I was the one who got hit.”

Everyone: “…” How come they didn’t know that Ye Xiaozhen, who everyone thought was easy to bully, had hit someone?

Not only were everyone dumbfounded, but even Ye Xiaozhen herself was dumbfounded.

She couldn’t remember when the original owner had hit this person.

“You’re full of crap, when did I tell her to hit you?”

“How could I be wrong? When we were ten years old, in the bamboo forest behind the dam, you lost playing marbles, you couldn’t take it, so you dragged your foolish sister out, you pushed her and told her to hit me.”

Ye Xiaoqiang: “…”

“That was eleven years ago, damn it.”

“And then there’s this.” Another person stood up to slap him in the face, “When we were eight years old, you also told her to hit me.”

Everyone: “…”

“Eight years old? Wasn’t that thirteen years ago? Why don’t you say I told her to hit you in my last life?”
