Chapter 178: Report

  When Jiang Youtao ran to the Bai family next door, Bai Yanlan was pressed to the ground by Old Lady Bai. Old Lady Bai had a cold expression on her face, and the knife that Bai Yanlan used to hurt her was already in Old Lady Bai's hand.

  Old Mrs. Bai's eyes were cold: "Two lifetimes of happiness? For an incompetent woman like you, there is still happiness to be had?"

  Bai Yanlan was lying on the ground, looking panic-stricken.

  She had the memory of her previous life, just last night.

  The last thing she remembered was when she said goodbye to Su Zhiyuan.

  Bai Yanlan felt that she had not lived a good life.

  As a child bride of the Bai family, she had to take care of all the housework when her two elder sisters did nothing, and she had to listen to Bai Guangzong's words all the time.

  Whatever Bai Guangzong wanted to do, no matter what she was doing, she had to agree unconditionally, and she would bear all the responsibility for any trouble Bai Guangzong caused.

  Rather than saying that she was Bai Guangzong's child bride, it would be more accurate to say that she was Bai Guangzong's maid.

  Bai Yanlan hated Bai Guangzong to death, but she was still very sad when Bai Guangzong died. She was not a fool. She knew what Old Lady Bai was doing by writing about the year, and how Bai Yulan lived. She was afraid that she would end up like Bai Yulan.

  So Bai Yanlan listened to Old Lady Bai even more, and she did not dare to refuse even if Old Lady Bai asked her to be a surrogate mother for Wang Linqiang.

  Later, she married Su Zhiyuan. Bai Yanlan knew that Su Zhiyuan was good to her, but no matter how good he was to her, Bai Yanlan did not dare to believe him.

  In her previous life, she became a puppet of Mrs. Bai because of her distrust of Su Zhiyuan. Because she was too afraid that Wang Yurong would be exposed to Su Zhiyuan as her son, she agreed to all requests from the Bai family, even if Wang Yurong wanted a house for his marriage, she had to sell it to him.

  Even though Wang Linqiang violated her countless times when Su Zhiyuan was not at home, Bai Yanlan did not dare to say anything.

  Until her death, she was unable to give Su Zhiyuan a child. Bai Yanlan knew that it was her own fault, but she couldn't help but put all the blame on others.

  She hated the Bai family and also hated Su Zhiyuan for not being able to lead her out of the quagmire.

  She had been cowardly all her life, but she left her worst temper to Su Zhiyuan.

  Bai Yanlan often thought that Su Zhiyuan was really unlucky in his previous life to meet her.

  When Bai Yanlan first found out she was reborn, she was ecstatic. She thought that she must live a good life with Su Zhiyuan in this life, give him a child, listen to him for the rest of her life, stop throwing tantrums and no longer empty her own family to subsidize the Bai family.

  Unfortunately, before she could be happy for long, her memories of this life were integrated. Su Zhiyuan divorced her and found out about Wang Yurong's child.

  Bai Yanlan felt like she was in hell. Having slept with Su Zhiyuan all her life, she knew Su Zhiyuan's temper better than anyone else. Su Zhiyuan could forgive a lot of things generously, but the two things he could not tolerate were being deceived and being cuckolded.

  When she married Su Zhiyuan, she did not confess the fact that she had a child before marriage. In fact, nothing happened between them on their wedding night. The blood on the bed sheets was smeared with chicken blood by her.

  No man could tolerate such an insult, not to mention that she had a child before marriage.

  Bai Yanlan didn't sleep last night. She had lived under Su Zhiyuan's wings all her life and had never lived alone. Bai Yanlan didn't dare to think about how she would live in the future without Su Zhiyuan.

  As soon as the sun rose, she went to find Su Zhiyuan. She told Su Zhiyuan everything from her childhood to adulthood. Bai Yanlan knew that Su Zhiyuan was a generous and soft-hearted person in her previous life.

  She thought that after she told Su Zhiyuan about her helplessness, Su Zhiyuan would pity her and forgive her.

  But she was disappointed. Her retreat-to-advance approach did not earn Su Zhiyuan any sympathy for her.

  On the way back, Bai Yanlan felt extremely uncomfortable, so she took out the small knife she always carried in her pocket.

  Bai Yanlan felt that she had lived an unhappy life in both of her lives, all because of Old Madam Bai. If it weren't for Old Madam Bai, her life would have been very different.

  When she saw Old Mrs. Bai, she stabbed her with a knife.

  Bai Yanlan thought it took a long time, but in reality only a short while had passed.

  Old Lady Bai stabbed Bai Yanlan's neck with her knife: "I have raised you for more than 20 years, provided you with food and drink, just to let you come and kill me one day?"

  "I ruined your happiness. If I wasn't here, do you think you could marry Su Zhiyuan? What family does Su Zhiyuan come from? What family do you have? If I hadn't asked you to save him, would you have married him? What are you dreaming of? What kind of person are you? You don't have a mirror and you haven't peed yet? Can't you look at yourself?"

  "Do you think that without me, Su Zhiyuan will even look at you?" Old Mrs. Bai looked contemptuous and sarcastic.

  Bai Yanlan is pretty, but no matter how pretty a country girl is, can she be prettier than a girl in the city? Girls in the city eat well, dress well, and their complexions are much better than those of country girls.

  Rural girls do farm work all year round, their hands and faces are rough, and their clothes are rustic. How can they compare with girls in the city?

  According to Old Lady Bai, Bai Yanlan's skinny figure cannot even compare with Bai Yulan, let alone the girls in the city.

  The knife was getting closer and closer to Bai Yanlan's neck. Bai Yanlan tried her best to resist, but to no avail.

  When the knife pierced Bai Yanlan's flesh, Jiang Youtao had already stepped over the threshold. Even faster than her was Bai Yulan, who rushed out of the house holding a large vase. Bai Yulan raised the vase and smashed it on Old Lady Bai's head.

  The vase broke and the porcelain pieces scattered all over the floor. Old Mrs. Bai moved her knife-holding hand away from Bai Yanlan. Bai Yanlan quickly got up and hid behind Bai Yulan.

  Bai Yulan was also very scared, and the two of them leaned against each other and moved back little by little.

  Old Mrs. Bai never thought that one day she would be bitten by the dog she raised. She covered her head with her hands, blood flowed down her head, and Old Mrs. Bai walked forward with a knife in her hand.

  The two sisters of the Bai family were so frightened when they saw Old Mrs. Bai walking towards them. The shadow cast by Old Mrs. Bai was too great for them, and even though she was injured, they were still afraid.

  Seeing that they were getting closer, Bai Yanlan pushed Bai Yulan out, and Bai Yulan rushed towards the sword raised by Old Lady Bai.

  She turned her head and looked at Bai Yanlan with disbelief in her eyes.

  Old Mrs. Bai smiled coldly. She had seen many people like Bai Yulan who were too kind-hearted. She herself was not living a happy life, but she still wanted to be someone else's savior.

  Old Lady Bai knew why Bai Yulan asked Bai Yanlan to bear Wang Linqiang's child, but Wang Linqiang gave Bai Yulan money, so she could pretend she didn't know. Bai Yulan was her cash cow, and as long as she didn't go too far and had her own little thoughts, it was normal.

  But Old Mrs. Bai would not allow herself to be betrayed, especially by the children she raised.

  Old Mrs. Bai moved her hand forward, and when the knife was about to stab Bai Yulan's stomach, her hand was grabbed by Jiang Youtao.

  Jiang Youtao was extremely strong and Old Lady Bai was held by her, unable to move.

  Jiang Youtao asked, "Does a fight between mother and daughter need to involve knives?"

  The harshness that Old Lady Bai usually pretended to have disappeared, replaced by a kind of indifference: "Don't meddle in other people's business, let it go."

  Jiang Youtao didn't let go.

  Bai Yanlan is a person with a terrible character. Jiang Youtao doesn't care if she was stabbed twice, but because Bai Yulan is thinking about Bai Yanlan and she just rescued Bai Yanlan, Jiang Youtao can't let old lady Bai hurt her.

  Bai Yulan was out of danger for the time being. She turned around, grabbed Bai Yanlan and slapped her in the face: "You ungrateful bastard, I'm so nice to you."

  Bai Yulan didn't stop the slap, and Bai Yanlan cried in pain: "Sister, sister, sister, I didn't mean it. I was just too scared."

  Bai Yanlan explained.

  Bai Yulan pouted at Bai Yanlan: "You are afraid, but am I not afraid too? Didn't I come out to save you?"

  Bai Yanlan was speechless.

  At this time, another group of people rushed in from outside the door. They were the people who had just passed by the door of Bai's house and reported to the police when they saw Bai Yanlan stabbing Old Mrs. Bai with a knife.

  To make it convenient for Jiang Youtao, a duty booth was set up this year not far from the entrance of Liushu Hutong. Soldiers dressed as police officers are on duty there every day.

  They rushed over as soon as they heard the crowd's call for help.

  Seeing that Jiang Youtao was also there, people who knew Jiang Youtao's special nature very well knew that there was definitely something going on here.

  Jiang Youtao had met the leaders several times and nodded to them implicitly.

  The leading soldier said sternly: "We heard that there was a fight here. Come with us now."

  Soldiers and police officers are people that Old Mrs. Bai never wants to deal with in her life.

  Jiang Youtao let go of Mrs. Bai's hand. Mrs. Bai hid the knife in her sleeve and wiped the blood from her head. "There was no fight, no fight. It's just that the mother and daughter had a little conflict. Commander, this is our family affair."

  When Old Lady Bai was a courtesan in her previous life, many military officers came to support her. She habitually called the soldiers "commander".

  As soon as she said this name, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

  After the establishment of New China, who has ever seen/heard the PLA and the police not address each other as comrades? Old Lady Bai use the word commander to address a soldier and police, isn't this what was used to address to the former GMD?

  As soon as Mrs. Bai said this, she was stunned.

  She had been living too comfortably these years and had lost her vigilance. When she saw these soldiers, she forgot how to address them.

  Bai Yulan looked at Old Lady Bai, then at the soldiers, pursed her lips, and spoke decisively.

  "Public security comrades, I want to report." Bai Yulan ran towards the police.

  "I want to report Bai Shuangyue for killing people and burying bodies, and for forcing women to become prostitutes."

  She didn't resist Old Lady Bai before because she was scared of being beaten by Old Lady Bai. She also felt that life was bearable and she was used to such a life. But now it was different. She has already betrayed Old Lady Bai. With her temper, she would definitely not let her go after the police left. Bai Xianglan's previous experience was still there.

  Even though she was living like a piece of mud, Bai Yulan still didn't want to die.

  Mrs. Bai's eyes went dark, and she felt the wound on her head throbbing with pain. Each of the two charges Bai Yulan mentioned could get her shot several times.

  Her eyes shot towards Bai Yulan like sharp swords. She really didn't expect that after a lifetime of glory, she would end up in trouble because of Bai Yulan, whom she had raised as her daughter.

  Old Mrs. Bai is feeling extremely regretful now. If time could go back, she would have strangled Bai Yulan to death when she was born by her mother. And she should have thrown Bai Yanlan into the river and drowned her.

  Bai Yulan was surrounded by a group of police officers and felt extremely comfortable.

  The entire Bai family, except Bai Yaozu and Wang Yurong who hid in the room and did not come out, were taken away by the police. Jiang Youtao, who acted bravely to help others, was also taken away.

  Half an hour later, she came out of the Public Security Bureau. The soldier from the research institute, who now had two identities, chased her out and handed her a letter.

  "Commander, this is what Captain Xu asked me to give you."

  Jiang Youtao thanked him and left with the letter.

  She don't know when it started, but the people in the Special Research Institute stopped calling Jiang Youtao "comrade" and started calling her "chief" instead.

  Although this leader was a low-ranking official with no salary, no title, and no benefits, Jiang Youtao was very happy every time she heard this title.

  How cool.

  If this had happened in her previous life, Jiang Youtao would never have dared to do this in her dreams.
