Li Dahe sprinted all the way, fearing he might be too late to save her.
He didn't quite believe that Lin Nianhe would really get beaten up, as she wasn't the type to suffer losses, and there were so many people around, after all...
But no matter how many "after alls" there were, he still feared the one in ten thousand chance.
With her small stature, wouldn't she cry for ages after just one slap?
Li Dahe, like a whirlwind, announced his presence before he was seen—
"Everyone stop talking and put your hands down!"
...
"Leader, leader! A fight has broken out at the Grain Station!"
In the commune, a frantic clerk rushed into the leader's office to report.
The leader was stunned and immediately got angry, slamming the desk and reprimanding: "What time is it now? The autumn harvest is so important, how can you try to pull the wool over my eyes!"
He was furious, took a couple of breaths before asking: "Who is fighting with whom? What's happening?"
