Lin Fan watched as Yan Shun, who was busy tidying up the house, and felt a wave of guilt in her heart. While it wasn’t her who had done those things before, she couldn’t help but sympathize with Yan Shun. Having a wife like the Original Owner must have been a headache for anyone.

“Take a rest for a while; I’ll change into something more comfortable and go buy food for you,” Yan Shun said, placing the cleaning supplies in the corner and then changing into casual clothes before heading out.

It was only then that Lin Fan took a good look around the house. It was quite tidy, but according to the memories of the Original Owner, it seemed like Yan Shun had been the one taking care of everything, while the Original Owner had only been spending money on others.

Thinking about this, Lin Fan sighed deeply.

After a simple meal, and with Yan Shun gone to the military base, Lin Fan looked around the house and then left after grabbing something, carefully calculating the time.

The man the Original Owner had been supporting as a ‘freeloader’ was named Li Wei, and he worked at the Provincial Theater Troupe, which was quite close to the military base, less than a ten-minute walk away, making it easy to find.

When Lin Fan was halfway there, she encountered a strikingly dressed woman coming towards her.

As soon as the woman saw Lin Fan, she looked disdainful and sarcastically remarked, “Oh, Lin Fan, Captain Yan has just left, and you’re in such a hurry to find your freeloader boyfriend?”

Lin Fan paused for a moment, sizing up the woman who had just spoken, and recognized her as the wife of Deputy Company Commander Jiang, who lived upstairs. Without hesitation, she retorted in the same manner, “Oh, Zhou Liu, dressed so provocatively, are you going to meet a lover?”

Upon hearing Lin Fan’s response, Zhou Liu was momentarily stunned. After regaining her composure, she adjusted her clothing and glared fiercely at Lin Fan, exclaiming in frustration, “You! What’s it to you?!”

“Exactly, what business is it of yours whom I’m going to see?” Lin Fan approached Zhou Liu, rolled her eyes, and then confidently walked away.

Zhou Liu had always taken any opportunity to mock Lin Fan, and the Original Owner had been proud of this, completely oblivious to the implications in their conversations. However, Lin Fan was not that kind of person.

Lin Fan arrived near the Provincial Theater Troupe and happened to encounter Li Wei coming out from inside. Judging by the timing, it was the troupe’s break time, which was the perfect time for Lin Fan’s visit.

Li Wei strolled down a narrow alley, humming a tune. Lin Fan quietly trailed behind, waiting for the right moment to slip a sack over his head. When the opportunity presented itself, Lin Fan swiftly covered Li Wei’s head with the sack and then delivered a powerful kick, initiating a barrage of punches and kicks, each strike fueled by considerable strength.

The Original Owner of this hefty body certainly possessed no shortage of strength.

Li Wei let out a startled cry, bewildered by the sudden attack. He had no time to resist as the fists rained down on him, so he curled up and begged for mercy.

“Mercy, kind sir! I’ll give you whatever money you want, please, stop this…” pleaded Li Wei.

In her heart, Lin Fan sneered. There was no way she would let Li Wei off so easily. As for the money, they could settle that tomorrow. Otherwise, if Li Wei recognized her later, it might backfire.

Lin Fan remained silent, continuing to unleash her full force. As time passed, she focused her blows on Li Wei’s face.

“Mercy, kind sir, mercy…”

Throughout the ordeal, Li Wei pleaded for his life, but Lin Fan paid no heed. She only ceased her assault when she felt the time was right.

At this point, Li Wei lay motionless on the ground, appearing lifeless. However, if one listened closely, they could still hear the sound of his labored breathing.

Lin Fan gave Li Wei one final kick before retreating to another alley, observing Li Wei’s every move.

It was unclear how much time passed, but Li Wei eventually staggered to his feet, tearing the sack from his head. He angrily shouted into the empty alley, “Whoever the hell ambushed me, if I find out, I’ll make sure you regret it!”

His cries were met with silence.

Lin Fan concealed herself in the shadows, silently mocking Li Wei for having completely forgotten his earlier pleas for mercy.

Once Li Wei had moved a safe distance away, Lin Fan retrieved the sack and carefully folded it. She could not afford to leave any evidence behind. If Li Wei decided to report the incident to the authorities, it would be disastrous if it led back to her.

Lin Fan decided to wash the sack before taking it back home. Burning it was not an option; she did not want to raise any suspicions, especially if word of Li Wei’s encounter reached Yan Shun.

No, upon reflection, in the eyes of outsiders, she was the one who cherished this man who lived off her, so they might assume that Li Wei was targeted by some enemy. Nonetheless, she could not take any chances.

As she walked halfway home, passing by a vegetable market, her eyes caught sight of a stall selling poultry. She had a thought and veered towards it.

Although there were conflicts between them, Yan Shun had taken a step back and given her some money before he joined the military.

Several tens of minutes later, when Lin Fan emerged from the market, she openly carried the sack with her and happily made her way back to the military compound.

Upon entering, she unexpectedly found Yan Shun there. Her cheerful humming halted. “Oh? You’re back so soon? Great timing! I bought chicken, and I’ll cook tonight. How about chicken stew with mushrooms? I promise it’ll be delicious!”

Yan Shun’s face darkened, and Lin Fan acted as if she hadn’t noticed. She showed him the sack she was carrying and headed for the kitchen.

“Li Wei got beaten up. Don’t you know?”

Yan Shun followed Lin Fan into the kitchen and watched her prepare the chicken, his brows furrowing.

Had the world turned upside down today? Wasn’t this woman typically lazy and gluttonous? Why was she suddenly cooking now?
