Chapter 246 Terrified
Yi Zhonghai was beaten so hard that he ran away with his head in his hands, begging for mercy: "Shazhu, I was wrong! I was wrong! Please forgive me!"
Sha Zhu refused to listen, and he beat Yi Zhonghai harder and harder, as if he wanted to burn Yi Zhonghai to ashes. He felt disgusted when he thought of Yi Zhonghai's sanctimonious appearance. This old guy pretended to be righteous and moral on the surface, but he did such dirty things behind the scenes!
Qin Huairu was horrified watching from the side. Although she hated Yi Zhonghai, she didn't want to see him being beaten like this. She stepped forward again to hold Sha Zhu, crying, "Sha Zhu, stop hitting him! If you continue, someone will die!"
Sha Zhu finally stopped. He stared at Yi Zhonghai breathlessly and warned him, "Old man, you're lucky today! If I find out that you bully Sister Qin again, I will kill you!"
Yi Zhonghai covered his swollen face and fled from the Jia family in a panic.
Sha Zhu closed the door, walked to Qin Huairu, and asked with concern: "Sister Qin, are you okay?"
Qin Huairu shook her head, tears welling up again. She threw herself into Sha Zhu's arms and burst into tears. Sha Zhu gently patted her back and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm here."
Qin Huairu cried for a while, then gradually calmed down. She raised her head and looked at Sha Zhu, her eyes full of gratitude and dependence.
Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu's tearful face, and his heart was throbbing. He couldn't help but reach out and stroke her hair, saying softly: "Sister Qin, don't worry, I will always protect you in the future."
Qin Huairu's cheeks flushed slightly. She nodded gently and snuggled in Sha Zhu's arms, feeling his warmth and strength.
The courtyard returned to peace, with only the occasional chirping of crickets. Inside the house, Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu hugged each other tightly, and each other's heartbeats were clearly audible.
Sha Zhu looked down at Qin Huairu in his arms. Her face looked particularly beautiful in the moonlight, with a hint of shyness and tenderness in her eyes. He couldn't help but lower his head and kissed her lips.
Qin Huairu was stunned at first, then closed her eyes and responded to Sha Zhu's kiss.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by Jia Zhang's sharp shout: "Qin Huairu! You shameless bitch! What are you doing!"
Jia Zhang's scream was like a bomb, shattering the charming atmosphere in the room. Qin Huairu pushed Sha Zhu away and hurriedly tidied up her messy clothes. The blush of shame on her face had not yet faded, but was replaced by fear. Sha Zhu was also stunned. He did not expect Jia Zhang to appear suddenly, and he did not expect that he and Qin Huairu's intimate behavior would be caught by her.
Jia Zhang rushed into the house, pointed at Qin Huairu's nose and cursed: "You vixen! There are always troubles around widows. You seduced my son, and now you seduce Sha Zhu! You are such a shameless bitch!"
Qin Huairu's face turned pale, her lips trembled, but she couldn't say a word. She knew Jia Zhang's fierceness, and she also knew that she had no way to defend herself at this moment.
Sha Zhu reacted and quickly stood in front of Qin Huairu, glaring at Jia Zhang: "What nonsense are you talking about! Sister Qin is not the kind of person you say she is!"
"Not that kind of person? I saw you hugging each other and kissing with my own eyes! You still want to deny it?" Jia Zhang screamed, spitting everywhere, "Shazhu, you are a fool! You have been fooled by this woman! She just wants to squeeze you dry and then kick you away!"
"Shut up!" Sha Zhu roared. He could no longer tolerate Jia Zhang's dirty words. "Sister Qin is a good woman. She would never be like you said!"
"A good woman? Haha! A widow with three children, you call her a good woman? Are you stupid?" Jia Zhang laughed sarcastically, her eyes full of contempt, "She just wants to find a man to work like a cow and a horse for her and support her family! You are that stupid cow!"
Sha Zhu was so angry that he was shaking all over. He clenched his fists and really wanted to punch Jia Zhang's mean face. But he knew that he couldn't hit an old person, especially Qin Huairu's mother-in-law.
Qin Huairu grabbed Sha Zhu's arm and whispered, "Sha Zhu, don't argue with her, it's useless."
Sha Zhu took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions. He turned to look at Qin Huairu, his eyes full of heartache and pity.
"Sister Qin, don't be afraid, I'm here." Sha Zhu said firmly, "I won't let anyone bully you."
Qin Huairu's eyes became moist again. She looked at Sha Zhu with gratitude, and her heart was filled with warmth.
Seeing how close Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu were, Jia Zhang was furious. She pointed at Sha Zhu's nose and cursed, "Sha Zhu, you are such a heartless person! Have you forgotten the kindness your uncle showed you? He raised you, and you turned against him for a widow! You are such an ungrateful person!"
When Yi Zhonghai was mentioned, Sha Zhu's anger flared up again. He felt extremely disgusted when he thought of what Yi Zhonghai had done to Qin Huairu.
"Don't mention him!" Sha Zhu gritted his teeth and said, "He is not a good person at all! He..."
Sha Zhu wanted to tell the story of Yi Zhonghai, but seeing Qin Huairu's pleading eyes, he held back. He knew that if he made a big fuss, it would be bad for Qin Huairu's reputation.
"What do you mean by me? Just tell me!" Jia Zhang said aggressively, "You don't dare to say it, right? Because you feel guilty! You know I am telling the truth!"
Sha Zhu was too lazy to bother with Jia Zhang anymore. He took Qin Huairu's hand and said, "Sister Qin, let's go."
"Leave? Where to?" Jia Zhang blocked their way, "You must explain yourself clearly today! Otherwise, I will go to the street office to sue you!"
Sha Zhu sneered: "Go ahead and sue! I want to see who the Street Office will believe!"
After saying that, Sha Zhu took Qin Huairu and left the Jia family without looking back.
Jia Zhang was so angry that she stamped her feet and yelled at their backs: "You two bastards! You shall not die a good death!"
Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu came to the yard. The courtyard was quiet, with only the dim light from the dim street lights.
Qin Huairu stopped, gently pulled back her hand, lowered her head and said, "Shazhu, thank you."
Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu. Under the moonlight, her face looked particularly pale, and her eyes were full of fatigue and helplessness.
"Sister Qin, you don't have to thank me." Sha Zhu said softly, "I did everything willingly."
Qin Huairu raised her head and looked at Sha Zhu, her eyes full of mixed emotions. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing.
Sha Zhu looked at Qin Huairu who was hesitant to speak, and was full of doubts. He was about to ask, but suddenly, Qin Huairu's body shook, and then she fell to the ground.
"Sister Qin!" Sha Zhu exclaimed, and hurriedly supported Qin Huairu. He found that Qin Huairu's face was as pale as paper, cold sweat was on her forehead, and her breathing became weak.
