Jiang Gu, having cooled down under Zhou Lan’s influence, got enraged once again by Wang Niu’s words and raised his fist. “Say that again, and I’ll hit you!”

Wang Niu, frightened, shrunk her neck and stopped speaking, tugging sadly at her floral dress.

Zhou Lan didn’t want to stoop down to a child’s level, especially when the farmers from the fields began to gather around. If the adults saw her bullying a child, it wouldn’t look good.

Ignoring the crowd, Zhou Lan, with one hand gripping Jiang Gu and the other holding a wooden stick, headed towards Wang Xing’s house. “I won’t bicker with a child, but I’ll confront your parents! They always avoid real work and only spread rumors. I’ll see to it that they get their mouths shut.”

Seeing Zhou Lan’s furious demeanor, the onlookers weren’t worried about her fighting; instead, they feared she might be bullied.

After all, Zhou Lan’s former submissive image was deeply etched in their minds. It was already surprising to see her confronting someone.

They followed her both to enjoy the spectacle and to support Zhou Lan if things got out of hand.

But they underestimated her.

Upon reaching Wang Xing’s house, Zhou Lan kicked the door open. Wang Xing’s wife was in the courtyard while Wang Xing was inside. Without hesitation, Zhou Lan grabbed Wang Xing’s wife and struck her back with the stick.

The woman cried out in pain, rubbing her back, “Zhou Lan, have you gone mad? You dare to assault someone in their own home?”

Zhou Lan replied fiercely, “I’m hitting you for a reason. If you’ve done no wrong, why fear? Not being able to hold an accountant position shows your incompetence. What right do you have to spread rumors?”

Realizing her guilt, Wang Xing’s wife stopped arguing and shouted for Wang Xing to intervene.

However, Zhou Lan’s fury was indiscriminate. Even when Wang Xing, a tall, strong man, tried to stop her, she struck him on the leg with her stick, causing him to nearly kneel in pain.

Teaching Jiang Gu, Zhou Lan shouted, “Watch closely, dear. This is how you hit someone. If they’re taller, go for their legs!”

Jiang Gu observed attentively, mimicking the moves. With her natural talent, her punches were even more precise than kids who’d been taking Taekwondo for months. No wonder Zhou Lan wanted her to learn martial arts.

Wang Xing’s family also had an elder brother. Seeing his younger brother and sister-in-law being chased and beaten by a woman, he hurriedly ran out to try to stop Zhou Lan. However, it was to no avail. He was also forced to join the ranks of those getting beaten.

The villagers were utterly shocked by the scene. When did Zhou Lan become so formidable? She was able to beat two men and a woman without them being able to fight back. Was this the Zhou Lan they once knew?

Some felt that the situation was getting out of hand, so they quickly went to find Jiang Chuan and the chief captain. However, since Wang Xing’s reckless words had implicated the chief captain, they were concerned that calling only the chief captain might seem biased. As a result, someone else went to fetch the village chief.

By the time the village chief, the chief captain, and Jiang Chuan arrived, Zhou Lan was still chasing and beating the three individuals.

Zhou Lan gave Jiang Chuan a look of affirmation. It was clear that her husband understood her, knowing to step in when she was exhausted. Zhou Lan stood to the side, catching her breath, and continued to glare at the three members of Wang’s family.

The chief captain, with an expressionless face, showed a certain dignified authority, “What has this group come to, causing such a ruckus? What on earth happened?”

Wang Xing’s wife, with a wronged tone, said, “How would I know what happened? I was just peacefully staying at home when this woman rushed into our house without saying a word. Not only did she break our door, but she also started beating us as soon as she saw us. On what grounds?”

Feeling that the truth was being twisted, Zhou Lan, with her hands on her hips, stepped forward in anger, “You say I’m unreasonable for beating you, but do you dare say why I beat you?”

Wang Xing’s wife couldn’t find words to reply. She avoided Zhou Lan’s direct gaze..
