Boss, He’s Becoming a Father (Arc 4) Chapter 80.1: Playful Son (40)

Looking at Lord Wu, who was lying in a pool of blood and completely unconscious, County Lieutenant Jiang felt a chill down his spine.

He looked at Wu Ying’s appearance again, and finally couldn’t help asking: “What is your grudge against him? Aren’t you his nephew?”

Wu Ying did not answer, but there was always a smile on the corner of his mouth. He took out a handkerchief from his arms and carefully wiped the blood stains on the knife.

Seeing that he didn’t say anything, County Magistrate Jiang turned to Shao Yu and asked, “Sir, now that Lord Wu is like this, what should we do?”

Shao Yu hesitated for a moment and said, “I’ll give him a simple bandage first.”

The officers under County Lieutenant Jiang would occasionally get injured, so there were bandages in the county government office. After Shao Yu gave Lord Wu a simple treatment, he looked at Wu Ying.

“Did he ask you to cut it? Was it the lower body or the rope?” Shao Yu asked.

Wu Ying smiled openly and said, “He didn’t tell me exactly where to cut, so I can only guess based on my own ideas.”

Wu Ying added: “After all, in his opinion, any subordinate who can’t guess his intentions is a waste.”

When County Lieutenant Jiang heard this, he was startled. He had indeed seen with his own eyes that Lord Wu scolded Wu Ying for being unskilled and demanding to know everything.

But he thought that if Wu Ying retaliated like this just because of two scoldings, it would be too outrageous.

For a moment, County Lieutenant Jiang looked at Wu Ying with a little more caution.

However, Shao Yu did not think like County Lieutenant Jiang, but looked at the wound of Lord Wu.

The implication of taking action at that place is too obvious.

Shao Yu turned to look at County Lieutenant Jiang and said, “I just asked around in the city and I know that our Lord Wu is a very lustful man. I just wonder if he doesn’t even let go of the women in his clan?”

After hearing this, County Lieutenant Jiang immediately said, “I haven’t heard of such rumors.”

After a while, he said again: “I just heard that there are several widowed women in the city who have their heads and faces straight, as long as they have been met by him, they have been seduced by him…”

Shao Yu said: “Everyone I met in the city can be like this, which shows that this person is very impatient. If so, if…”

Shao Yu stopped talking here. He looked at Wu Ying, only to see that Wu Ying was also staring at him intently. It seemed that if Shao Yu said something, Wu Ying might pounce on him and fight him to the death.

Shao Yu did not continue speaking, and Wu Ying breathed a sigh of relief. Shao Yu then realized that this matter was most likely related to the women in Wu Ying’s family.

Shao Yu glanced at Lord Wu who was lying on the ground and said, “Move him to a place where he can lie down first. Wu Ying, you keep watching him. Don’t let him run away, and don’t let him die.”

Shao Yu looked at Wu Ying again and reminded him, “He has done so many wrong things. Once the trial is complete, his crimes will be announced to the world. By then, he will die in the midst of public scorn. There is no need to rush.”

Shao Yu put the rag back into Lord Wu’s mouth.

Wu Ying glanced at Shao Yu, then glanced at the lying Lord Wu, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

After settling the man, County Lieutenant Jiang asked worriedly, “Sir, Wu Ying has done such a thing, why do you still want him to guard the place?”

Shao Yu said nonchalantly, “Nothing, Wu Ying knows his limits, and now he can’t spare anyone else to look after him.”

County Lieutenant Jiang still said: “Wu Ying hates Lord Wu. If Lord Wu is tortured to death by him, then we…”

Detaining Lord Wu was one thing, but killing him was another.

“Don’t worry, Wu Ying won’t torture him to death.” Shao Yu said.

County Lieutenant Jiang was still somewhat worried.

Shao Yu asked again: “Who else is in Wu Ying’s family now?”

County Lieutenant Jiang had attended a funeral at Wu Ying’s home a month ago, and he said, “He had a younger sister who passed away last month. Now he is the only one at home with his mother.”

Shao Yu asked, “How did his sister die?”

County Lieutenant Jiang said, “I heard she had a sudden illness.”

When Shao Yu heard the word “sudden illness”, he realized that the girl must have been in good health before. Looking at Wu Ying’s pretty face, he thought that his sister must also be a beauty.

Lod Wu is the girl’s cousin. If the girl really died because of Lord Wu, then this man is worse than a beast.

At this time, hearing the sound of beating and smashing coming from outside, County Lieutenant Jiang no longer cared about Wu Ying’s matter, but asked: “Sir, what’s going on outside…”

“Let’s go take a look at the door.” Shao Yu said.

He took County Lieutenant Jiang to the gate of the county government office.

The patrolling troops outside had not yet attacked the county government office, but were smashing things and making noise outside.

It is understandable that the inspectors are so cautious. After all, if they really attack and win, they can make up any story they want in the future. But if they lose, what happened today may be considered a mutiny.

Therefore, at this time, Inspector Chen had his soldiers outside create pressure on the people inside in this way, in order to force Shao Yu to release Lord Wu.

Through the crack in the county government door, there were more than a hundred people outside, looking densely packed. However, each of them had a weapon in his hand, and for a moment they looked like there were thousands of them.

When County Lieutenant Jiang saw this group of people, he was so frightened that his legs went weak. The momentum that he had finally built up was immediately reduced to half a level, and he couldn’t help but start to back down.

Shao Yu glanced at County Lieutenant Jiang beside him and said, “This won’t work.”

County Lieutenant Jiang immediately said: “Sir, they will attack sooner or later. Lord Wu is unconscious, so we can’t interrogate him at all. How about we use Lord Wu as a bargaining chip to threaten them to let us go? But if we do that, I’m afraid we will have to live on the run.”

Shao Yu looked at County Lieutenant Jiang in surprise and asked, “Now that it has come to this, the other side has so many troops. Even if they let us go, can we really escape? Besides, even if we can escape, can our families escape?”

Upon hearing this, County Lieutenant Jiang was immediately as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and said, “This won’t work, and that won’t work either. What should we do?”
