Chapter 405 Good kids should go to sleep.
Yu Dong’s move was just as swift as Chen Ying’s, she was once an officer who had to fight a mob of zombies, and yet she came out of that mobbing alive so what was a single Chen Ying? She immediately dodged the attack and even took Xiao Hua and Fang Chi with her making sure that the two of them were completely protected by her. Chen Ying wasn’t a skilled fighter thus, Yu Dong only needed to smack her palm against Chen Ying’s wrist using the latter’s strength and pace to deviate the direction of her attack. Her hit was light but due to Chen Ying’s uncontrollable speed, the latter stumbled back with a shocked expression on her face.She expected Chen Ying to try and attack her again but Yu Dong seemed to have underestimated Chen Ying, who not only did not attack Yu Dong or Xiao Hua but instead she turned around and headed towards Li Hanjing who was still standing on the threshold.
” Damn you Chen Ying!” shouted Xiao Hua as he tried to rush to Li Hanjing’s aid but Yu Dong was faster than him, she ran after Chen Ying and then using her spiritual energy to increase her momentum, she rushed past Chen Ying before she could reach Li Hanjing.
” I said,” she snatched the knife from Chen Ying’s hand and then raised her other hand before she punched the latter right into her face. “It’s time for good kids to sleep!”
Unlike Chen Ying who couldn’t even deliver one blow, Yu Dong was different with just one punch she was able to send Chen Ying flying without even breaking a sweat.
” Chen Ying!”
” Wife!”
The Chen family was startled by Yu Dong’s ruthlessness and they simply stared at her like she was a demon. They didn’t expect that she would be daring enough to hurt someone in front of so many people.
” Yu Dong, what are you doing?” shouted Elder Chen as she crouched next to her daughter and carefully studied Chen Ying’s injury only then did she notice that the latter most likely had a broken nose, she couldn’t help but blame Yu Dong. ” She is drunk, how can you hurt a drunk person? She doesn’t have a single idea what she is doing.”
” You know it better than anyone whether she is drunk or not,” shot Yu Dong with ease as she tilted her head and then slowly as if she was a predator who was prowling around her prey, approached the Chen family before she crouched down and smiling looked at them. ” Now that we are past that little drama, let’s have a good talk—- your family broke into my property with a bunch of unmarried mers who did not have the slightest bit of idea what was going on, if not for their quick thinking and them lighting up the entire place, who knows what would have happened.”
She paused and the Chen family ever so slightly huddled together.
Yu Dong raised a finger and then continued, ” We can ignore that part since there is no law regarding trespassing currently but we do have a law if someone tries to murder a person.”
” My daughter didn’t kill anyone!”
” Then should I wait for her to kill someone before reporting her?” asked Yu Dong as she quirked a brow and looked at the Chen family as if she was looking at a bunch of fools. ” You came here despite knowing that I am the owner of this house as well as the mers who live here, yet you threatened one of my mers and then you tried to attack another one, now you better take out a good sum of three hundred taels before I send your daughter packing.”
”Three hundred taels you are dreaming!” Elder Chen shot to her feet and panted harshly. Three hundred taels for hush money? Really wasn’t it too much? Yu Dong was just trying to take advantage of their situation. ” I am this village elder, if you try to make things difficult for me then don’t blame me for being rude to you, Yu Dong! If you mess with me then I will make things difficult for you as well with my entire existence!”
Yu Dong got to her feet and this time it made a rather big statement given that she was taller than Elder Chen. She skimmed her gaze over Elder Chen’s body and then she smiled with a raised brow, ” That’s not much trouble if you don’t mind me saying.”
Elder Chen who was disdained for being too short: “…..” Cheh!
” You… you…Yu Dong, you really have no respect for your elders!” snapped Elder Chen with her face flushed so red that she started to resemble a tomato more than a human. ” How can you disregard me like that?”
” Like you disregarded me?” said Yu Dong helpfully. ” I am still alive and kicking yet your daughter is harassing my mer like I am dead. Who does she think she is?”
” She is my daughter! And I am the Elder of this village!”
”And that’s the only good thing that you have,” said Yu Dong with a soft cooing voice. Then her expression changed as she lowered her gaze and stared at Elder Chen with a threatening expression, ” You see, I have been giving a lot of work to the villagers, unlike you who has done nothing to them, think who will they support if I were to bring you to the Yamen? Will they support you? Or me? Who is giving them a good deal for their work?”
As soon as Yu Dong said that, the expression on Elder Chen’s face changed and she turned her head to glance at the crowd who hurriedly looked away. Their stance was pretty clear they would support Yu Dong if things were to get worse than they were at the moment ——
”You…Fine!” Even though Elder Chen knew that Yu Dong was simply extorting her, there was nothing she could do… she knew how crazy Yu Dong was ——- if she was saying that she will drag her daughter to the Yamen then surely she will do that if her daughter was to be taken to the Yamen, then she will have twice as much or trouble than she was having at the moment.
Now Yu Dong was no longer the same, she had a lot of connections and she needed to be careful around her. Thus, after thinking it through she turned to her third husband and said, ” Go and get three hundred taels.”
