Chapter 11

The next morning, as soon as Li Yuechan stepped into the courtyard, she heard that there had been thieves at her house last night, which really gave her a scare.

She hurried back home and saw her daughter still sleeping soundly in the house.

She walked into the room and gently shook her daughter: “Yuechan, time to get up.”

Li Yuechan mumbled, “I didn’t sleep well last night, I’m still sleepy.”

Li Yuechan lightly slapped her daughter’s butt. “Hey, my little darling, the police said for you to go make a statement this morning, right? Hurry up!”

Li Yuechan rubbed her little butt and reluctantly got out of bed, slowly washed her face, and then ate the breakfast her mom brought back, before leisurely heading to the police station.

After finishing the statement, Li Yuechan took out the receipt for the radio from the flea market and the two of them went home with the radio.

Unexpectedly, someone came to their door in the afternoon.

“Miss, please show some mercy and let my son Chungguang off the hook. It was just a moment of foolishness that led him to commit this mistake.

He’s only twenty-something, if he has to serve three years in there, what’s he going to do after he gets out?”

As she spoke, the woman started crying loudly.

Li Yuechan frowned and said, “Mrs., have you thought about this? If my daughter had been sleeping at the time, wouldn’t she have really been sold off?

Can you understand my feelings? She’s my precious daughter!”

“No no no, Miss, I’ve already asked my son, they really just wanted to steal some things, they didn’t plan to sell your daughter at all!”

As she said this, the woman knelt down with a “thud”. “I’m kowtowing to you, I’m kowtowing to you, please let your daughter write a letter of understanding.”

Seeing this, Li Yuechan hurriedly went to help the kneeling woman up.

At this moment, Li Yuechan pushed the door open.

“Hmph, want a letter of understanding? Okay, bring 500 yuan!” The woman kneeling on the ground immediately stopped crying, and even her mother glared at her.

Li Yuechan puffed out her little chest defiantly and said in a coquettish voice, “500 yuan for emotional damage, understand?

I was terrified, do you think just kneeling and kowtowing can solve it?

Get the money ready, I’ll write the letter of understanding for you right now, and get out of here!”

The woman left crying and wailing. Li Yuechan looked at her daughter disapprovingly and asked, “Are you really going to write them a letter of understanding?”

Li Yuechan snorted, clenched her little fist, and said angrily, “Three years is too light a sentence for them! They need to be made to really pay for it by being locked up for a long time!”

Li Yuechan shook her head helplessly, she knew too well her daughter’s personality of always seeking revenge, she would never let the other side off so easily.

“Mom, where’s my dad? Such a big thing happened, but I haven’t seen him at all.”

“He… he’s at work today.”

Li Yuechan furrowed her little brows, “He was on the night shift yesterday, and is still working the day shift today? Isn’t he the workshop director at his unit?”

“Oh, don’t worry about him!”

Li Yuechan felt something was off, but seeing her mom didn’t want to talk about it, she didn’t ask further.

After all, the marital life of middle-aged people, she didn’t understand!

Who would have thought that nightfall would bring another uninvited group of people to her house.

Li Yuechan was busy in the kitchen cooking, Li Yuechan waved her hand to signal her not to come out, she could handle it herself.

One of them, a well-dressed middle-aged woman, took out 500 yuan and waved it, saying, “This is 500 yuan, for the letter of understanding for my son Han Chunguang.”

Li Yuechan took a look at this woman and felt she needed to be taken down a peg.

This was hardly the demeanor of someone begging. Looking at that high-held head and that disdainful gaze.

Li Yuechan curled her lips and said, “Your son was the ringleader, 500 yuan won’t do.”

Hearing this, the woman drew back her hand and glared at Li Yuechan. “Little girl, know your place! Do you know what my family does?”

“What do you do? Don’t tell me your family is a den of thieves? Your son came to steal, was it at your instigation?” Li Yuechan didn’t back down.

The woman sneered at Li Yuechan, “You little girl, how dare you speak like that? Be careful or you’ll get into trouble!”

Li Yuechan didn’t back down either. “Aren’t I telling the truth? Your son sneaked into my house in the middle of the night to steal things, could it be hereditary?”

The middle-aged woman was just about to retort when the man next to her poked her, and the woman said impatiently, “Alright, I’m not going to argue with you anymore, how much do you want before you’re willing to write the letter of understanding?”

“800 yuan, not a penny less!”

“You, you, you, this is too greedy of you!”

“It’s not you who’s the victim, so of course it’s easy for you to talk tough!

I’m an 18-year-old girl, as beautiful as a flower, and two strange men suddenly barged into my home, my poor little heart is still racing.”

The woman angrily pointed her finger at Li Yuechan, “You… you even broke my son’s ribs!”

“Oh, that was self-defense, they brought it on themselves! The police officer didn’t say anything against me, that proves I did the right thing.”

The man pulled the woman, and the two of them left!

Li Yuechan slammed the door shut and muttered, “What a ridiculous person, daring to come and scold me, really messed up!”

At this moment, Li Yuechan came out of the kitchen and said, “Yuechan, how about mom takes a day off tomorrow? I think they’ll probably come back tomorrow.”

“It’s fine, mom, I can handle it myself, you go to work.” Li Yuechan said nonchalantly.

“But mom is worried!” Li Yuechan was concerned.

“Oh come on, your daughter won’t lose out to anyone, you can rest assured!” Li Yuechan said, raising her little fist.

The next day, Li Yuechan was still in a sleepy daze when she heard a “bang bang bang” at the door outside.

“Who is it? Disturbing my peaceful sleep so early in the morning.”

Li Yuechan sat up impatiently, got dressed, and opened the door.

“Who is it?” She asked irritably.

The knocking man looked at his watch and smiled, “Miss, I’ve brought the money for you.”

Li Yuechan took a look and it was the man from yesterday. She glanced back, but the woman wasn’t with him.

She took the money the man handed over and counted it, exactly 800 yuan.

Then she went back in to get the letter of understanding she had written yesterday, waiting for the money to arrive.

She handed the letter to the man and said, “Go back and teach your child well, make sure this kind of thing never happens again.

People as easygoing as me are few and far between, if you’re not careful, you might end up being sent to the northwest!”

The man took the letter of understanding with a smile, and Li Yuechan slammed the door shut.

The man standing at the door looked at the door of Li Yuechan’s house, the corner of his mouth slightly upturned, revealing a sinister smile, and then turned and left.

Officer Guo at the police station watched as the other party took the letter of understanding, his brow furrowing tightly.

Normally, in this kind of situation, they would still have to be sentenced even after getting the letter of understanding, and the cigarette butt had already been identified as a drug,

but since someone up high had made a call, there was no choice, they could only let Han Chunguang go.
