"Village Chief, how do you plan to deal with Punk?" a man asked.
"Well..." the Village Chief hesitated.
"Village Chief, you can't let him off the hook," another man said.
"I know, but..." the Village Chief struggled to respond.
"Village Chief, you aren't thinking of covering for him, are you?" one man questioned.
"That's not what I mean, I just..." the Village Chief explained.
"Village Chief, if someone bullied your daughter, would you still say the same thing?" Zhang Xiaoxiao said angrily.
"I..." the Village Chief faltered.
"Village Chief, if you can't bear to deal with Punk, then we'll take care of him for you," Zhang Xiaoxiao stated.
"No, I didn't say I wouldn't deal with him," the Village Chief replied.
"Then how will you deal with him?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked.
"I..." the Village Chief hesitated again.
"Village Chief, don't forget that Yaya is your daughter," Zhang Xiaoxiao reminded him.
"I understand now; I will drive him out," the Village Chief said.
"That's more like it," Zhang Xiaoxiao responded.
"I warn you all, don't go too far," the Village Chief cautioned.
"We're not going too far," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied.
"Alright then, carry him out of the village; I don't want to see him again," the Village Chief commanded.
"Okay, let's go and carry him out," one man said.
"Alright," another man echoed.
Several men carried Punk out of the village and threw him onto a mountain outside the village.
"Let him fend for himself," a man said.
"Okay," another man replied.
Zhang Xiaoxiao returned home and waited for them.
Before long, several men came back.
"You're back," Zhang Xiaoxiao said.
"Yeah," one man responded.
"What happened?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked.
"We threw him out," one man said.
"That's good," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied.
"Don't worry, he won't come back," another man said.
"That's good," Zhang Xiaoxiao said again.
"Alright, we're leaving," one man stated.
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao responded.
The men left, and Zhang Xiaoxiao felt very happy.
Punk, this is your retribution.
Soon, Chen Shuying arrived with Xiao Liang.
"Xiaoxiao," Chen Shuying called out.
"Sister Shuying, what brings you here?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked.
"I came to check on you," Chen Shuying said.
"I'm fine," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied.
"Were you scared?" Chen Shuying asked.
"Yeah, I'm okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao said.
"If Brother Zhao were home, you wouldn't have had such a scare," Chen Shuying remarked.
"Yeah, but what if he turns bad outside?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked.
"Well..." Chen Shuying was taken aback.
"I believe in him," Zhang Xiaoxiao said.
"Yes, Brother Zhao is a good person," Chen Shuying replied.
"Indeed, he is a good person," Zhang Xiaoxiao agreed.
"But what if he really does turn bad?" Chen Shuying questioned.
"Then I will let him go," Zhang Xiaoxiao stated.
"Huh?" Chen Shuying was stunned.
"If he really turns bad, it won't help to hold onto him," Zhang Xiaoxiao explained.
"That's true," Chen Shuying acknowledged.
"Just let things take their course," Zhang Xiaoxiao suggested.
"Mm-hmm," Chen Shuying responded.
"By the way, Sister Shuying, how is Wang Changgui doing?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked.
"Oh, he's about to be finished," Chen Shuying said.
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaoxiao was shocked.
"He got mixed up with Qian Baoli and owes a huge debt; he probably won't be able to pay it off in this lifetime," Chen Shuying explained.
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaoxiao was stunned again.
"He deserves it," Chen Shuying said with schadenfreude.
"That's true," Zhang Xiaoxiao agreed.
