Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife-Chapter 141: Huh? That Troublemaker Is Back!

Chen Xiao stood before Lin Xi.

Lin Xi looked at his expression, instinctively shrinking her neck.

"What's up with you, did you eat gunpowder?"

Chen Xiao stared at her: "Do you know you made a mistake?"

Lin Xi lifted her head, a hint of bewilderment in her eyes, but before she could say anything, Chen Xiao solemnly informed her:

"From now on, remember, no matter what happens, don't consider, don't weigh, don't think about anything for me!"

"Even if I'm away and there's a colossal problem, everything pales in comparison to your safety, do you understand?"

Chen Xiao hadn't been this angry in a long time.

His demeanor frightened everyone else, but Lin Xi's lips curved upward at that moment.

"Well... at that time, you were setting up to catch Chen Yan, and I thought if I told you, wouldn't your plan fall through." Lin Xi murmured.

Chen Xiao spoke in a deep voice: "Forget about Chen Yan, just tell me the name of the lead!"

"Hmm... It's Chen Yao's father. That day, I busted a pyramid scheme hub, not expecting Chen Yao to be a minor leader in it. His father came wanting me to get Chen Yao out, but after I refused, they blocked our home's door with people."

Chen Xiao squinted: "That's why when my parents and Xiaoyao left, they didn't even call me; turns out this happened!"

"Okay, enough talking, let's head home now!" Chen Xiao grabbed Lin Xi's hand, and Lin Xi exclaimed: "Didn't we agree to leave tomorrow morning?"

"Can't wait, not a minute longer, I want to see just how bold they are!"

Chen Xiao dragged Lin Xi away from the criminal police team.

Everyone glanced at them and then involuntarily looked at Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian said: "Why are you looking at me? He's defending his wife, it's only right! Go on and do your tasks!"

......

Chen Xiao drove Lin Xi straight back to the village.

On the road, Lin Xi recounted everything that had happened.

After Chen Xiao left, aside from solving some small cases, Lin Xi also aided Liang Yan in investigating a pyramid scheme case.

After taking down the pyramid scheme hub, a minor leader named Chen Yao emerged.

According to the village hierarchy, Chen Yao was Chen Xiao's cousin.

Chen Xiao's great-grandfather and Chen Yao's great-grandfather were brothers, but by their generation, the relationship had weakened considerably.

Moreover, Chen Xiao had always been a letdown, so those so-called cousins would either never interact or would scold him, pretending it was for his own good while actually just flaunting their success.

The Chen family was naturally a good example in the village. In the early 90s, they already had multi-story houses and stone lions at the entrance, boasting about their affluence.

Speaking of those lions.

Chen Xiao felt even angrier; back when he was in school, he admired their grandeur and wanted to climb them.

Didn't expect not even to climb up before being chased around the village by Chen Yao's father.

Chen Yao's father was Chen Xiao's uncle, Chen Yuan.

Originally, aside from Chen Yao, there were three sons; the eldest, Chen Ding, engaged in prosperous building materials business in the Provincial City.

Chen Yao as the second, followed by two other sons.

The third son drowned at age seven or eight, and the youngest, Chen Xianzu, was deemed the most promising among them.

Indeed, Chen Xianzu got into a top domestic university last year, but on the day of Chen Yuan's celebratory banquet, he died from excessive drinking.

The village suspected it was karma from Chen Yuan's misdeeds.

Others said those lions at Chen Yuan's entrance spoiled their luck.

Regardless, the Chen family had always been prestigious, not even Chen Xiao could casually visit.

Now, Chen Yuan dared to block Lin Xi, even after she refused to bail out Chen Yao, and attempted to hit someone; something Chen Xiao couldn't tolerate! 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

So, regardless of who it was, no one would have it easy tonight.

Seeing Lin Xi frantically typing on her phone, Chen Xiao commented: "Are you spreading the news to my parents?"

Lin Xi chuckled awkwardly: "I told my parents not to tell you; seeing you so urgent, I fear you might scold even them."

"In this matter, they are indeed thoughtless. What are sons for? It's for times like these to stand up! But it's also my fault for letting them face village grievances, tonight we settle new scores and old ones together."

As Chen Xiao spoke, Lin Xi put down her phone quietly, continuously watching Chen Xiao.

It's said, if a family has a virtuous wife, the husband faces less trouble.

Lin Xi, a police officer, didn't want to be a shrew, or cause trouble for Chen Xiao, nor have him act impulsively for her.

Regardless of being an officer or a wife, she was foremost a woman.

She believed Chen Xiao wouldn't act rashly.

But she also wanted to witness how her man would avenge for her.

Soon, after Chen Xiao made a call to Guo Qing, they drove home.

At their front, Chen Lie and Chen Xiao's mother Yang Ying stood there.

Seeing the car lights, the old couple immediately approached.

Old Chen stood by the car, deliberately glancing behind the vehicle.

As Chen Xiao and Lin Xi got out, Lin Xi immediately held her mother-in-law's arm, and together they called out "Mom and Dad."

Old Chen looked at Chen Xiao sternly: "What are you up to this late? Look how you scared your mom!"

Chen Xiao saw the worry on his mother's face, but just as he was about to speak, Old Chen sternly said:

"You used to always talk about your brothers, and now you're alone?"

Chen Xiao paused momentarily, smiled wryly: "Dali and others are busy with business out of town, but it's okay, I can handle it alone."

"No way, later you stand behind me. Protect your mom and Xiaoxi; I'll handle this!"

Chen Xiao knew well his father's intention.

He didn't want Chen Xiao hurt, partly having reached a breaking point, refusing to back down.

But more importantly, since it was time to address it, he wanted to protect those he cherished.

His wife, his son, and his son's wife.

Yet, Chen Xiao wouldn't let his father act alone, so he signaled Lin Xi, who pulled Chen Lie aside.

"Dad, leave it to Chen Xiao, he can handle such matters."

Old Chen studied Lin Xi, seeing Chen Xiao nod with a smile before saying: "Alright, then let's demand an explanation."

Chen Xiao didn't lead the way, Old Chen did.

In that moment, seeing Old Chen's steps, Chen Xiao felt he looked several years younger.

Soon, father and son arrived at Chen Yuan's gate.

Lin Xi fetched a bag from the car, accompanying Yang Ying from behind.

Just when Old Chen was about to knock, Chen Xiao stepped forward: "Dad, when it's time not to be courteous, don't be."

Saying that, staring at Chen Yuan's grand gate, Chen Xiao kicked it hard.

A loud "bang" echoed.

The gate Chen Yuan bragged about spending thousands on, fell instantly.

The commotion drew uproar inside and outside.

Neighborhood shouted recognizing Chen Lie and Chen Xiao.

"Chen Xiao's back, no wonder there's such noise!"

"Huh? That loafer returned! But why right away does he trouble Chen Yuan?"

"Don't you know? Chen Yao got arrested! His wife personally led the team!"

"Yes, heard Chen Yuan went to the city, hoping his seniority would grant him a favor to bail out Chen Yao, but he got rejected!"

"No wonder Chen Yuan's been bothering Uncle Lie these days, it's all due to this!"

More gathered by the minute.

Chen Yuan's family furious seeing the collapsed gate.

"You father and son are rebelling?" Chen Yuan roared with rage.

Chen Xiao walked to him: "Rebelling? Who is the ruler here? You?"
