80s Marriage Swap: My Should-Be-Dead Husband Lives On-Chapter 160: Bloodstained Gauze

Jiang Ning had great admiration for Liu Qinghuan.

"What about you guys? What are your wishes?" Jiang Ning looked at the other three.

Wei Lai spoke first: "I hope I can marry a wife who cooks as well as my sister-in-law."

Jiang Ning looked at Wei Lai with disdain: "What, are you looking for a wife or a nanny?"

Wei Lai looked at Jiang Ning puzzled,

Jiang Ning: "You want a wife just to cook for you?"

Wei Lai refuted: "Of course not,"

"Then why did you say you want a wife who cooks as well as your aunt?"

Wei Lai was a bit embarrassed, "Okay, I got it wrong."

He actually didn’t think too much, simply thought that finding a girl who cooks great would make him very happy.

Liu Qinghuan’s eyes flickered, unable to resist asking: "Do you like girls who cook well?"

Wei Lai thought for a while: "I quite like them."

He really liked the dishes Sang Yu cooked, and he also thought girls who cook well are amazing, he liked them too.

That’s why he instinctively voiced that wish just now.

Liu Qinghuan pondered: "I see."

"What about you guys?" Jiang Ning looked at the other two, Xu Ru’an and Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan glanced at Xu Ru’an, his voice gentle like water, his gaze filled with undeniable affection and love: "My wish is already beside me."

Xu Ru’an’s face instantly turned red, not knowing if it was because of the lantern light or Lu Yuan’s words.

She glared at Lu Yuan with reproach: "What nonsense are you talking about."

Lu Yuan, however, said generously: "I’m not talking nonsense. If I have another wish, it would be to marry you."

Xu Ru’an’s gaze dodged, not daring to meet Lu Yuan’s eyes, which were filled with deep love like a pond, seemingly pulling her in.

"Enough, there are three more of us here, take it down a notch." Jiang Ning couldn’t bear it any longer.

These two were way too lovey-dovey.

Xu Ru’an glared at Lu Yuan reproachfully: "Don’t say it again."

Lu Yuan’s eyes were full of indulgence: "Okay, I won’t say it."

Wei Lai looked at Lu Yuan and Xu Ru’an, full of meaning, truly unpredictable, thinking that Xu Ru’an and Lu Yuan were quite awkward before, how did it become so lovey-dovey after not seeing them for a while.

"What’s your wish then?" Lu Yuan asked Xu Ru’an.

Xu Ru’an held her lantern, covering up: "Nothing. Let’s go release the lanterns."

The others saw Xu Ru’an reluctant to speak and didn’t press further.

"Let’s go, let’s go, off to release the lanterns," 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The group walked towards the river, found a spot, and together placed the lanterns on the water.

The river slowly carried the lanterns away, along with their wishes.

Perhaps one day, the river god will fulfill their wishes.

...

After dropping Wei Qing home, Lin Wen arrived at the police station.

He immediately asked: "Where’s the man who was just brought in?"

"He’s locked up inside, what’s up?"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Lin Wen’s eyes, his voice chilling: "Nothing, I’ll go take a look."

"Hey, did you feel Lin Wen was acting a bit strange just now?" A man nudged his colleague.

The colleague beside him yawned: "What’s strange? It’s just Lin Wen, maybe you saw wrong."

The man scratched his head, really? Did he see wrong?

Alright, never mind.

Lin Wen arrived at the room where the man was held.

A policeman was watching inside.

"Why don’t you take a break? I’ll watch him."

"You? It’s not your shift today." The on-duty officer looked at Lin Wen.

"I know, Monkey is on duty. Monkey might be a bit late, so I’m watching for a while."

The on-duty officer thought, considering Monkey and Lin Wen’s good relationship, maybe it really was like that, so he didn’t think much more: "Alright. I’ll head out first then."

Lin Wen sent away the guard.

It so happened to be almost shift change time, so the guard didn’t suspect anything.

After he left, Lin Wen gazed through the iron bars at the man inside.

The man was already asleep.

Lin Wen picked up the keys from the table and unlocked the door.

The sound of the door opening woke the man from his sleep.

The man looked up at Lin Wen, somewhat confused: "What are you doing?"

Lin Wen silently locked the door, then put the key in his pocket.

He slowly pulled out two cloth strips from his pocket and leisurely wrapped them around his hands.

The surrounding environment was very quiet, a silence that made one somewhat fearful.

Seeing Lin Wen slowly approach him, wrapping cloth strips around his hands, the man retreated in fear.

"What, what exactly are you going to do?"

Lin Wen raised his gaze, his deep black eyes carrying a few traces of coldness and murderous intent: "You’ll know very soon."

The man struggled: "You can’t hit me, otherwise I’ll definitely report you."

Lin Wen chuckled: "Really? Then go ahead."

As the words fell, a fist full of force landed on the man’s face.

The man fell hard to the side, a mouthful of blood spewed from his mouth, along with a blood-stained tooth.

Seeing this, the man immediately said: "I, I know I was wrong, don’t hit me."

Lin Wen said coldly: "Too late."

Several more punches followed, all of which landed on his body and face without surprise.

No one knew how long it took, but the man’s cries for mercy grew weaker before Lin Wen stopped.

The gauze wrapped around Lin Wen’s hands had already been stained with fresh blood.

Lin Wen looked at the man lying on the ground: "This is what you deserve."

The man curled up on the floor, pain seemingly radiating from every part of his body.

Lin Wen slowly unwound the gauze from his hands, his knuckles already a bit scraped.

But Lin Wen didn’t mind at all, cleaned the bloodstains from his hands, then put the gauze into his pocket.

By the time the on-duty officer arrived, Lin Wen was already sitting on the bench outside.

Seeing Lin Wen, the officer was a bit puzzled: "Lin Wen? Why are you here?"

Lin Wen looked at the newcomer: "Monkey, nothing much, just helping to watch for a bit, I’m off now."

With that said, Lin Wen got up and left, his movements crisp and clean.

Monkey watched Lin Wen with curiosity: "So laid-back? Wasn’t he off to meet that female colleague?"

Monkey was puzzled like a monk knowing little, he shook his head.

Then walked towards the table, suddenly noticing something odd about the man inside the cell,

He was groaning, like a woman.

When he got closer, he found something wrong with the man’s face, it looked like he had been beaten.

Thinking of Lin Wen, Monkey was helpless.

Luckily this man had done enough bad deeds, facing either life imprisonment or lethal injection in interrogation.

Must be fierce anger for a beauty, let it be.

Better let Vice Jiang warn Lin Wen.
