Nie Longjiao glanced at the ti; it was already 6:20, leaving 40 minutes until the return train departs.
She was angry and didn't understand what was interesting about this matter.
Besides, it was one thing for that guy she brought to be unprincipled, but how did Bofei, who was always honest and upright, beco like this?
Nie Longjiao took out her phone, furiously found Xiao Feng's number, and dialed it.
She hadn't considered that Xiao Feng and Nie Bofei were spying now, putting them at risk of being exposed.
"Love is a light, so wonderful, guiding us to the future we desire..."
The mont the ringtone sounded, Xiao Feng almost tumbled to the ground.
That damn ringtone, how is it so fitting?
He had switched to a new phone earlier, and to prevent the little girl from changing his ringtone around, he simply set it to random so it would be different each ti.
However, who could have thought such a small probability event would occur?
Of course, speaking solely about the song itself, there's no ambiguity in its lyrics or lody.
But sohow, soone online altered it to say, "Love is a light that makes you panic" instead.
Suddenly, this old song beca popular again, giving people a weird feeling upon hearing it.
Similarly bewildered and flustered were Yang Weiwei who had just finished a "battle" in the woods, and the village chief's son, Miao Zhiwu.
Xiao Feng looked sympathetically at Nie Bofei beside him, wishing to offer so comfort but realizing nothing sounded right.
At this mont, Nie Bofei's fists were clenched, white vapor puffing from his nostrils as he breathed, like an angry bull on the brink of rampaging.
He grabbed a stone from the ground and strode into the woods.
Xiao Feng followed along for a distance and finally saw the appearance of a man and woman in the forest.
The woman was not tall but quite pretty, her clothes sowhat disheveled, with panic filling her eyes.
The man was more burly, with a burn scar on his face, his expression equally unpleasant.
"Bofei, why... how are you here?" Yang Weiwei asked wide-eyed, "Didn't you say you were leaving the village..."
"Yes, I left the village... to prepare a birthday gift for you," Nie Bofei clenched his teeth, his voice sounding extrely hoarse, like he had smoked a pack of cigarettes in one breath, giving a sense of difficulty in speaking.
Miao Zhiwu stepped forward, shielding half of Yang Weiwei's body, and locked eyes on the stone in Nie Bofei's hand, "Take it out on if you want, but think clearly. If you hit , you can forget about getting the land for your new house approved."
"Heh... haha... hahahaha!" Nie Bofei laughed like a fool, then his expression turned fierce, "My wife is gone, what the hell do I need a new house for!"
After speaking, he ran wildly towards Miao Zhiwu.
"Ah!" Yang Weiwei scread, hurrying away to hide in the distance.
Miao Zhiwu was startled, rapidly retreating a few steps and plopping down on the ground.
After a brief chaos, he quickly removed a keychain from his waist, found a folding knife on it, and pointed the blade at Nie Bofei.
Xiao Feng squinted his eyes, noticing Nie Bofei showed no signs of slowing, imdiately judging him to be blinded by fury.
Charging head-on like this, it's uncertain if he can hit the opponent with the stone, but getting stabbed is certain.
Recognizing this, Xiao Feng casually picked up a pebble and flicked it with his wrist.
"Whizz!"
"Clang!"
With less than a second between the sound of air being cut and the impact.
Miao Zhiwu looked incredulously at the dropped keys and the spring knife not far away, his eyes full of fear.
The opponent actually had backup?
Without ti for more thoughts, intense pain radiated from his forehead.
"Ah!" Miao Zhiwu scread, touching his face, and upon viewing his hand, glaring red was apparent.
"You've got a death wish!" Miao Zhiwu kicked out, hitting Nie Bofei square in the chest.
Pulling apart by a certain distance, both unconsciously scrambled to get up quickly.
Unlike experts in combat, fights between ordinary people often adhere to one principle.
Which is, strike first to gain the advantage, hesitate and you suffer.
First a brick, then a combo punch, almost no suspense.
Unfortunately, Nie Bofei failed to seize the opportunity, giving the opponent a chance to counterattack.
Hearing the noise, Nie Longjiao followed the sound and upon seeing Xiao Feng, angrily said, "Do you know what ti it is now?"
"Do you know what just happened?" Xiao Feng retorted.
Nie Longjiao frowned, looking at the grappling Nie Bofei and Miao Zhiwu, then glanced at Yang Weiwei hiding behind a big tree with a terrified expression, imdiately deducing eight or nine out of ten.
"This... is too coincidental!" Nie Longjiao lanted.
If her dad hadn't gotten drunk.
If her third uncle had co instead.
They probably would have safely left the village by now.
Unfortunately, reality contains no what-ifs, only consequences and outcos.
"Indeed too coincidental," Xiao Feng agreed, "Had we arrived three minutes later, this wouldn't have happened."
Nie Longjiao confusedly asked, "What three minutes?"
"Those two," Xiao Feng pointed at Yang Weiwei then Miao Zhiwu, "only 'battled' for three minutes."
Nie Longjiao imdiately flushed, giving a big roll of her eyes.
"With this style of fighting, your cousin definitely can't win," Xiao Feng calmly stated.
Nie Longjiao looked at the already losing Nie Bofei and walked over.
Putting aside everything else, just based on family ties and because he spotted this due to accompanying her, there was no reason to stand idly by.
"Stop!" Nie Longjiao shouted sternly.
Yet Nie Bofei and Miao Zhiwu continued with fists and kicks, fighting uncontrollably.
Xiao Feng chuckled, "Have you ever seen fighting people obediently stop because soone says 'stop'?"
Nie Longjiao felt embarrassed, unable to find a reason to refute.
Looking at past fight scenes, even if couples are fighting, the more outsiders intervene, the louder it gets.
Breaking them up isn't necessarily effective, let alone a plain "stop".
Thinking this, she scowled and dashed forward swiftly to push the fiercely battling individuals apart.
"Nie Longjiao, you're helping outsiders beat ?!" Nie Bofei spoke angrily and ashad.
Miao Zhiwu seized the chance to taunt, "Look how you're doing, not even your family helps you, how terrible must your character be."
Nie Longjiao couldn't help but feel annoyed, clearly with good intentions and yet being wrongly accused.
Xiao Feng shook his head and sighed, walking over and saying, "You're hanging around kids too much, causing your intelligence to drop.
The notion 'no outsider intervenes' applies more when one party is your relative.
Thus, don't think about breaking up fights, lending a hand in the fight is the right choice, otherwise you'll end up awkwardly stuck in the middle."
