Chapter 144 Subduing the Bully
Seeing that things were going well on their end, Qin Yingxue turned her attention to Zhang San.
The yacht had already sailed into the deep sea. Following the instructions input by Qin Yingxue, Zhang San took out the radar to take measurements, and finally took out a fishing net and cast it into the sea...
"Auntie, look what I found!" Little Sea Breeze ran over with her short legs, holding a beautiful seashell in her hand.
"Wow! Little Sea Breeze is amazing! She found such a beautiful conch shell." Qin Yingxue exclaimed with admiration.
"Brother Yang is even more amazing, he picked up so many!" Little Sea Breeze gestured with a lot.
Seeing that he was small but was trying hard to stand on tiptoe, Qin Yingxue stood up and took his hand: "Why don't you take your aunt to see him?"
"Okay." Xiao Haifeng pulled Qin Yingxue toward Yang Weijun.
Before I even got close, I saw a group of children gathered together shouting, and I could vaguely see two children entangled together.
They got into a fight?
Qin Yingxue quickly pulled Xiao Haifeng aside and saw Yang Weijun being pinned down by a child older than him. His hands were being held, and his face was flushed red, but he was stubborn and didn't utter a sound.
"What are you doing? You're all so old and you're still fighting?" Qin Yingxue shouted, grabbing the boy with one hand and pulling Yang Weijun away with the other.
When Yang Weijun saw Qin Yingxue, his eyes suddenly reddened. He wiped his face and got up.
Qin Yingxue withdrew her hand and looked at the boy: "You're older than him, why did you hit him?"
"He's an unwanted wild child. This place belongs to our little fishing village," the boy said fiercely. "I didn't know before, but from now on, I, Haisheng, will be in charge here. Every time I see you, I'll beat you up until you submit..."
Qin Yingxue laughed in anger: "What arrogance! I'd like to see which family raised such an arrogant child! Come on, let's go find your parents!"
Qin Yingxue grabbed his wrist and used a little force.
Hai Sheng's flippant face suddenly changed, then slowly turned red, and his expression began to become unnatural.
"Let me go... Who are you... Who gave you permission to meddle... My grandfather is the village chief..."
"Hello, village chief! That's exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to ask him if he was the one who taught his grandson to bully and intimidate younger children..."
Qin Yingxue knew that the people on the fishing boats were very united, but also very xenophobic.
But with the troops stationed here, many people have also moved their household registration here.
Yang Weijun's household registration was transferred to Baisha Island following Yang Hongbin's registration.
Therefore, this sea does not belong solely to the small fishing village.
Everyone in the small fishing village knew Yang Weijun's identity, and no one had interfered for so long, so everyone naturally accepted it.
Hai Sheng felt a surge of tension when he realized he couldn't intimidate Qin Yingxue.
The hand gripping her wrist felt like an iron clamp, as if it would break at the slightest movement, and her originally flushed face turned bluish-purple.
Being just a young boy, all bark and no bite, he cried out in fear of pain, "Let go of me right now! At worst... I'll let him pick it up later..."
"Is this sea yours?" Qin Yingxue asked coldly.
"No... but my grandfather was the village chief..."
Haisheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly replied.
"Your grandfather is the village chief, which gives you so much power. You can say whoever you want to pick it up can pick it up, but does that mean whoever you don't want to pick it up can't pick it up?" Qin Yingxue stared sharply at the children around her.
The children looked at each other, then took a few steps back in fear.
Seeing their reactions, Qin Yingxue understood everything.
A few clever children noticed something was wrong and quietly slipped away to call an adult.
Qin Yingxue pretended not to see it.
It wasn't that she wanted to cause trouble, but Haisheng had bullied Yang Weijun so much that she had to get justice for him.
"Tell me, why did you bully Yang Weijun today?" Seeing that Haisheng remained silent, Qin Yingxue tightened her grip on his wrist.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..." Hai Sheng was in so much pain that beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
The children nearby became even more frightened. One of them whispered, "Haisheng saw Yang Weijun collect so much seafood and wanted some... Yang Weijun wouldn't give it to him... that's why they started fighting..."
"Is that so?" Qin Yingxue looked at Yang Weijun.
Yang Weijun's eyes were red, and he nodded.
"You robber! Don't you have hands? You're the oldest here, how dare you steal from others? I think your hand is good for crippling..."
Qin Yingxue felt a surge of anger and increased her strength.
"It hurts... Sister, I'll never do it again..." Hai Sheng cried out in pain.
"Shouting won't do any good." Qin Yingxue was furious when she saw the bloodstains and bruises on Yang Weijun's face and arms.
"Haisheng... Haisheng..." came an old voice.
Qin Yingxue looked up and saw a group of people running towards them.
Running in the middle was an old man with snow-white hair, a face full of wrinkles, and cloudy eyes. When he saw his beloved grandson being held by a woman, he was heartbroken. "Haisheng, don't be afraid, Grandpa is here."
"Haisheng..." Another middle-aged woman rushed to Haisheng's side. Upon seeing Qin Yingxue, the curse she was about to utter suddenly choked in her throat.
Qin Yingxue knew that the woman was the wife of a battalion commander in the stationed troops. This woman was not only beautiful but also very capable; she had given birth to three sons in one pregnancy.
Thinking of the other woman's husband's identity, the woman's face showed an uneasy expression: "Company Commander's wife, what did my Haisheng do wrong? Why are you holding onto him? Now that his grandfather and I are here, can you let go of my Haisheng first?"
"Grandpa, Mom, you've finally arrived! I was about to be beaten to death by this wicked woman..." Haisheng couldn't hold back his sobs any longer when he saw his relatives.
The village chief recognized Qin Yingxue, and a shrewd glint appeared in his cloudy eyes: "Haisheng, what did you do wrong that made the battalion commander's wife attack you?"
“Old village chief, you can’t just say things like that. I didn’t lay a finger on your grandson. If you don’t believe me, you can ask them. You can’t just listen to your grandson.” Qin Yingxue finished speaking and raised the hand that was holding Haisheng, moving it slightly. “I grabbed him just to stop him from hitting people. Look, Yang Weijun’s father is a soldier who protects our country. His father is protecting everyone on the front lines, allowing everyone to live a peaceful and prosperous life. But his son, because his father doesn’t have time to take care of him, has to fend for himself by picking up things on the beach that you all don’t want, and he’s being beaten. Tell me, is this how you treat the People’s Liberation Army comrades?”
"Yes, old village chief, your family spoils Haisheng, but you can't let him bully people like this! The Yang family boy has been in our village for almost a year, and he's a good kid!"
"That's right! Haisheng is two years older than that kid, how could he have the nerve to bully him like that?"
"Haisheng didn't study properly and dropped out of school, becoming a local tyrant in the small fishing village. He'll get what's coming to him sooner or later..."
Haisheng winced in pain, pouted, and tried to cry again, but a slap landed directly on his face.
