Substitute Driver's Notes

Chapter 65 It's not that easy to fool Brother Wei.

Seeing the woman's unease, Li Wei teased her, "What's wrong? Not going to worship the Living Buddha Ji Gong anymore?"

The woman smiled, but it aggravated the injuries on her face, causing her to hiss in pain. She rubbed the hem of her clothes even harder, and with a forced smile, said gently, "Big brother, thank you."

Li Wei waved his hand: "It's okay. Where do you live? Do you need me to take you home?"

The woman nodded gratefully, "Then I'll trouble you, brother. My home isn't far, thank you for your trouble."

Li Wei was speechless. This wasn't right! I was just being polite; you, you silly girl, shouldn't have said, "Don't bother me, I can go home by myself." How could you take advantage of this and say something like, "Thank you for troubling me by fixing the table leg?"

Maybe the young man is just hoping to be a hero and rescue the damsel in distress, then take her home, and who knows what might happen... something wonderful.

However, for married people who don't have any other ideas, they usually adhere to the principle of "better to avoid trouble than to cause trouble." If something uncontrollable happens, it will definitely affect family harmony.

Sighing inwardly at his own loose tongue, Li Wei hung his head and followed the pig-headed beauty into the distance.

Looking down, the pig-headed beauty's slender and graceful back was still quite beautiful. With her rhythmic footsteps, her swaying waist revealed her beautiful curves, and a faint fragrance wafted from her. Even though Li Wei had no wicked thoughts, he couldn't help but secretly take a few more breaths of this elegant fragrance.

On the way, the pig-headed beauty sobbed and told Li Wei that the man who beat her was her husband, who liked to gamble. Once he lost all his money, he would ask her for it. The other two men were her husband's creditors. Because she refused to pay, her husband dragged her out and threatened to beat her to death and bury her.

Li Wei was taken aback and casually comforted her, telling her not to worry. He guessed her husband was just trying to scare her. Who would beat their wife to death? That would be stupid.

He had just finished offering his insincere words of comfort when she suddenly stopped. Li Wei, who was following too closely and was also distracted, bumped into her soft back, causing her to stumble and fall forward.

Li Wei quickly reached out and hugged her, their bodies touching through the thin fabric of her clothes.

Li Wei quickly let go and threw her to the ground with a thud, causing the pig-headed beauty to cry out in pain.

You didn't drink today? How could you be so careless?

Li Wei bent down in frustration and carefully helped her up.

"I dare not go home. If he goes back, I won't be able to survive. Brother, please help me." The man seemed to remember something, and pleaded with Li Wei while crying, and then grabbed Li Wei's arm.

Are you kidding me? I don't want to get involved. How can I help you two with your problems? Help your husband pay for his gambling losses? Or help him beat him up? Besides, who knows if you're in cahoots to scam someone?

"Sorry, I can't help you much. I'm just a worker, I don't have any money. Why don't you go back and wait? Maybe a big boss will come and you'll be rich." Li Wei suspected it was a scam, so he organized his words and tried to persuade the unknown woman with the pig-like head that had been beaten up.

"Waaah," the girl cried, clinging to Li Wei and refusing to let go. "Big brother, I have money! Please don't abandon me! Take me home to get my money! I have money!"

Li Wei was even more skeptical, and sneered, "If you're rich, why were you beaten up like this? Just give your husband the money, wouldn't that solve the problem?"

"I just don't want him to gamble. No matter how much money he has, it's not enough to lose. So many good families have lost everything because of gambling. I advised him not to gamble, but he not only didn't listen, but he also beat me up like this. He said tonight he would beat me to death and bury me there if he didn't give me the money."

Li Wei was even more incredulous: "They're about to beat you to death, and you still won't give him the money?"

"I'll give him money if it's for normal expenses, but why should I give him the money I worked so hard to earn to gamble?" the pig-headed beauty said stubbornly, tilting her head back.

Fine, never mind. As the old saying goes, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes, let alone an ordinary person like me.

Li Wei patiently asked, "So what do you want? If you don't go home, where will you go?"

The man was bewildered, tears streaming down his swollen face and dripping onto Li Wei's clothes.

During the stalemate, the three people behind him walked over, supporting each other. When they saw Li Wei and the pig-headed beauty from afar, they immediately pointed at the two of them and started shouting a bunch of things that Li Wei couldn't understand.

Li Wei turned around and saw them spreading out, holding pickaxes and iron shovels, limping towards him.

It was undoubtedly a scam. The thought popped into Li Wei's mind. He shook his arm, broke the palm-leaf fan, threw it away, and pulled the pig-headed beauty over with one hand, shouting, "Come here if you're not afraid of death."

"Damn it, they really are adulterers, and they're from out of town too. Kill them!"

The three men rushed over without any regard for safety, one fast and the other slow. The one in the lead swung an iron shovel and slapped the pig-headed beauty.

She gasped in surprise, clutching her head in fear and trembling.

This doesn't seem like a scam. What scammer would be so ruthless to their accomplice? Could she be telling the truth? Ugh, why am I running into such a brain-teasing situation?

Li Wei couldn't bear to watch her get hit by the iron spike, so he pulled her aside and took a few steps back himself.

With a thud, the pig-headed beauty was thrown into the roadside bushes by Li Wei, letting out a painful cry of "Ouch, ouch!"

*Thud*, the iron shovel missed its target and slammed to the ground.

Li Wei sneered, "Even with good arms and legs, you can't beat me. Now that you're all injured, you still dare to make a move?"

He stepped forward and landed on the iron shovel, then raised his leg to feint a kick at the man's groin.

The man grabbed the iron handle and jumped back, intending to pull Li Wei down. However, this was exactly what Li Wei wanted. He used the momentum to step forward and threw an uppercut.

Thump, the person let go and lay on their back on the ground.

Li Wei stomped his foot, sprang the iron shovel into the air, caught it, twirled it casually, shouted "Kill!", and then gripped the shovel with both hands, assuming a bayonet-fighting stance.

The other two ran a little slower, and before they even got close, they saw their companion lying down. Li Wei's posture was so exaggerated, it was terrifying.

The two of them didn't seem to be very loyal; they dropped their farm tools and ran away.

The pig-headed beauty on the roadside got up, covered in grass clippings and debris, and limped over to the person lying down. She kicked him hard and started speaking in gibberish. After a while, she cried and told Li Wei, "They actually brought digging tools, waaaaah."

She squatted down while crying, and soon collapsed to the ground, muttering something between sobs. Li Wei could understand a few words, but when put together, it seemed...maybe...it seems...she didn't want to be with the person on the ground anymore.

Li Wei was so embarrassed! What kind of situation is this? I just came out for a walk to digest my food and was planning to have a pancake when I got back. How did I run into this mess? Can anyone tell me if they are scammers or not?

I pulled this pig-headed beauty up, intending to say a few words of comfort and take her home. It was late at night and so many mosquitoes were biting her, but these two were doing the same thing. One was sitting there crying nonstop, while the other was lying on the ground motionless.

Why aren't they afraid of mosquito bites?

This pull caused trouble. The pig-headed beauty took the opportunity to throw herself into Li Wei's arms, wrapping her arms around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder, and crying uncontrollably.

That's too dangerous, what if my wife sees this...
