Jiang Tingxia pulled An Xi to sit on a chair and comforted her for a long time before he realized what was going on.

According to An Qian, Master An was old but still in good health. However, he suddenly collapsed a few days ago and lost consciousness. An Qian sent him to the hospital, and he was saved, but he became an unconscious paraplegic.

Jiang Tingxia went to the inner room and saw that Master An, who was very energetic a few days ago, was now lying on the bed, covered with a quilt. Only his two eyes could move. When he saw someone coming, he could only hum a few times and drool.

An Xi quickly took a handkerchief to wipe it clean. She was such a good little girl, but in just a few days, her originally tender face showed some painful numbness.

She said that after Master An fell ill, people from the surrounding area came to propose marriage under the pretext of visiting her, but An Xi refused them all. As a result, many people started to make trouble for her, such as throwing garbage into her yard, deliberately blocking her yard, or banging on her door in the middle of the night. Then she realized that they were not proposing marriage at all, but just thought that she was a little girl who was easy to bully. She had such a big yard, and her grandfather had saved up a lot of dowry for her. They all wanted to eat her up.

Jiang Tingxia was so angry that he slapped the table and cursed, "These are garbage."

"Did you call the police?"

An Xi shook her head. "It's useless. We don't even know who did it. Once the police left, they went even further."

An Xi sobbed softly, "I have been so scared by them these past few days that I dare not go out. Yesterday, someone jumped over the wall. I don't know what he wanted to do, but luckily I scared him away with a shout. But he came again today. Sister Xia, I really don't know what to do."

Li Changpu asked, "Do you recognize the man we caught today?"

Anxi said, "I didn't see his face."

So the three of them walked into the yard. The man was tied up and twisting on the ground like a maggot. Li Changpu walked up to him and pulled off the veil on his face, asking An Qian to identify him.

An Xi could tell at a glance that this man lived in the alley in front and had some dealings with their family. She didn't expect that he would do something like jumping over the wall in the middle of the night.

Jiang Tingxia and Li Changpu felt sad and angry when they heard what An Qian said. Master An was so sick, but instead of helping him, they, the relatives and neighbors, took advantage of the situation to bully him.

Jiang Tingxia kicked him and asked, "What are you doing going to someone else's house in the middle of the night?"

The man hesitated and refused to speak, which made Jiang Tingxia so angry that he kicked him a few more times.

Li Changpu said calmly, "Let me do it. I have plenty of ways to make him speak."

Jiang Tingxia saw Li Changpu with his back to them. She didn't know what he did, but the man screamed and begged for mercy, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

He was sweating from the pain on his forehead, and under Li Changpu's gaze, his gums were trembling as he said, "I just wanted to come in and steal something valuable."

"Stealing things without even taking a bag."

Li Changpu looked him over for a few times and directly exposed his lies. He looked down at the garbage on the ground and said, "Why don't you tell the truth?"

As he said that, he took two steps towards the man.

The man was already scared out of his wits by Li Changpu, and cried, "I am... I am still single at my age, and I want to make it a done deal tonight so that An Xi will have no choice but to marry me."

An Xi's face turned pale when she heard this. "Uncle, I called you uncle, are you still a human being?"

The man looked at An Xi and said in a lecturing tone, "Xiao Xi, your grandfather is so sick, how can you, a woman, take care of this family? Why don't you follow me? After all, we have known each other for more than ten years."

An Xi cried and cursed, "You beast, I feel sick just by looking at you."

The man was scolded and said unconvincedly, "You still despise me, haven't you seen the bunch of scoundrels who have been squatting on your wall these past few days? If you don't find a man to support your family, you will die without knowing how."

An Xi was a little frightened, "Weren't you the one who jumped over the wall yesterday?"

The man stiffened his neck and said, "It's not me."

"I was hiding outside and saw it clearly. It was Aunt Zuo's second son. He was such a coward. He even drank to give himself courage. He ran to your house drunk, but you scared him away with your yell."

The man grinned at An Xi's beautiful young figure and laughed, which was extremely disgusting. "If it were me, I would have done it a long time ago."

He is almost forty years old this year, still unable to marry, and has been single for most of his life. He just touched An Xi twice. This was the first time in his life that he tasted this feeling, and he didn't even care about the pain in his body.

He stared at An Xi with his lewd eyes, "Xiao Xi, if you follow me, I will definitely love you well."

The man's horny look is really scary.

An Xi cried and hid behind Jiang Tingxia. Li Changpu was not polite to this scumbag and kicked him in the face. The man rolled his eyes and fainted.

Several people called the police and the man was taken away.

Jiang Tingxia held the big dog, feeling a little embarrassed, "An Xi is in this state, isn't it a good idea for us to just leave like this?"

"Leave!" An Xi heard this word. With her eyes swollen from crying, she immediately grabbed Jiang Tingxia's sleeve and said, "Sister Tingxia, you are leaving and you can't stay with me anymore. I'm so scared that someone will knock on my door again."

Jiang Tingxia looked at Li Changpu in embarrassment. Li Changpu couldn't bear to see An Xi shivering, "I still have some spare time during my vacation, don't worry."

Jiang Tingxia stayed with An Qian for one night, while Li Changpu spent the night in an empty room.

An Xi had been having trouble eating and sleeping these past few days, but Jiang Tingxia and his wife were there, and she couldn't let them go hungry, so she got up early and wanted to make some breakfast, but she hadn't been out for several days, and there was no rice or vegetables in the kitchen. After thinking about it, she decided to go out.

Unexpectedly, she was blocked at the entrance of the alley as soon as she walked out of the door. The person who blocked her was a well-known second-rate person on this street. "Girl, where are you going? I'll take you there."

An Xi was so frightened that she ran back quickly. The man actually followed her and she was almost caught by him when the gate of the An family opened.

Li Changpu was sturdy, wearing a green military uniform, with a pair of cold eyes. "What's wrong?"

An Xi ran towards the house, "Brother-in-law."

The man chuckled twice, "Comrade from the People's Liberation Army, it's a misunderstanding. I just saw Sister An Xi going out alone, so I wanted to see her off. Who knew she was so timid?"

The man raised his hands to his head, "I just said a few words to her, I didn't do anything else."

Anxi lowered her head and nodded.

Li Changpu said coldly, "Get lost."

The man quickly turned around and left. When he heard the gate close behind him, he spat and cursed, "You scared me to death. When did her family have a PLA relative?"

Looking at An Xi's large yard and wealth, the man rubbed his face with regret, "What a pity, I can't get involved."

Li Changpu closed the door and asked, "What are you going to do out so early in the morning?"

An Xi looked a little embarrassed, "There's no food at home."

Li Changpu said, "I'll go buy it."

He then instructed, "You and your sister should keep the door closed at home. If anyone causes trouble, don't be stubborn and wait for me to come back."
