Chapter 204 Fang Meng gripped the stone and slammed it down with his backhand.

Over the next two or three days, Bai Nuo, Sun Yuxi, Chao Xianhua, and Qin Xuehua would appear near Xu Laidi from time to time, seemingly unintentionally brainwashing her. Sometimes they would also find opportunities to use the villagers to lead Xu Laidi to witness a tough girl in the village dealing with her brothers.

After three or four days of this subtle and gradual brainwashing, the four people stopped appearing in front of Xu Laidi and instead spread interesting stories to her neighborhood through various people.

How can one or two brainwashings be enough, especially for a girl like Xu Laidi who has been bullied by her family for more than ten years and has long since etched cowardice and sacrifice into her stubbornness?

Only by constantly brainwashing her and instilling in her perspectives completely different from her own, can we gradually help her break free and generate a completely new understanding and the courage to unleash her potential.

Now all that's left is to wait for the right opportunity for her to completely explode.

This opportunity arose on the third day after Fang Meng returned!

Xu Baoqiang left Qishui Brigade at around 8 a.m. and didn't return from the county until 4 a.m.

He did behave much better during this period because he wanted to perform better and focus on pursuing that young educated youth.

He felt that he had genuinely fallen for the pretty young educated youth, and that if he behaved well, she would definitely be with him, unlike how he had treated the other girls in the past, just going through the motions.

Although at first he did target the young educated youth because of the money in his hands and the family's financial situation.

But just thinking about that delicate and pretty little face made his heart burn with desire, and he couldn't wait to take her home and consummate the marriage.

Because he felt he was serious this time, Xu Baoqiang seemed to have truly turned over a new leaf, just as some people had said, and stayed obediently in the village, occasionally even helping his parents pull weeds in the fields.

This led his parents to believe that their son was truly settling down. His mother was so moved that she cried several times. If his father hadn't stopped her, she would have gone to the educated youth compound to propose marriage that very day.

However, there's a saying that a leopard can't change its spots. Sure enough, three days ago, a friend dragged me out for a night, and my restless spirit, which had been behaving itself for a few days, started to stir again.

Today, a friend of mine made a small fortune and insisted on treating a few of his buddies to drinks. Xu Baoqiang hesitated for a few seconds before going along. Now, he was drunk and heading west of the village. As he passed through a small alley, a sack emitting a foul stench suddenly covered his entire upper body. Immediately afterward, a rope tightly bound him to the stinking sack.

"Who... ugh!"

Xu Baoqiang had barely uttered two words when he was struck in the face with a stick, rendering him speechless for a moment. Then, a hail of blows rained down upon him.

Xu Baoqiang couldn't even last five seconds before collapsing to the ground, curling up like a shrimp.

Every time Xu Baoqiang tried to call for help or make a sound, someone would hit him in the face with a stick through a sack.

Seeing that the fight had gone on long enough, Fang Meng patted the shoulders of the two brothers who were a bit too excited.

Xie Weidong and Eugene stopped, still wanting more, and looked at Fang Meng with puzzlement.

Fang Meng kicked Xu Baoqiang in the shoulder, then looked at Xie Weidong and Eugene, and stomped hard twice on Xu Baoqiang's shoulder with the foot that was on it.

Xie Weidong and Eugene instantly received Fang Meng's signal and quickly went over, squatting on either side of Xu Baoqiang and forcefully pressing him to the ground.

Fang Meng turned his head and looked around, finally his gaze landing on a large, square rock next to a clump of weeds not far away.

He walked over, picked it up, tested its feel, and thought it was good before turning around and walking step by step toward Xu Baoqiang.

Eugene looked at his brother Meng's face, which had a faint smile on his lips but was full of fierce and ruthless intent in his eyes, and the way he seemed to want to grind this scum to dust. Eugene's lips twitched.

He suddenly felt that it was actually a good thing that Xu Baoqiang was covered by a sack and couldn't see his brother Meng, since even he thought his brother Meng was terrifyingly bad right now.

The imposing manner with which they walked was like that of a vengeful Yama, slowly taking away souls.

Fang Meng walked over to Xu Baoqiang and squatted down. He picked up the wooden stick that was lying next to him and shoved the end of the stick directly into Xu Baoqiang's mouth.

Xie Weidong and Eugene stared in astonishment at the wooden stick that had been shoved into Xu Baoqiang's mouth along with the stinky sack, their lips twitching violently.

How did this guy manage to pinpoint Xu Baoqiang's mouth so precisely through a tattered sack? And it looks like Xu Baoqiang's mouth was open inside the sack, allowing the stick to slide in smoothly.

If this is done wrong, and it hits Xu Baoqiang in the eye, then it won't just be a wooden stick being stuffed into his mouth, but his eyeballs will burst out.

After confirming that Xu Baoqiang couldn't make a loud noise, Fang Meng pried Xu Baoqiang's legs apart, bounced the large rock he was holding, and then, with Xie Weidong and Eugene staring wide-eyed in disbelief, slammed it down hard with his other hand.

"Mmm~~~~"

"suck!!!!"

Xie Weidong and Eugene gasped sharply, then instinctively held their breath, as if the air around them had frozen.

At this moment, only four words remained in their minds!

Holy crap!

It hurts!

As if that wasn't enough, Fang Meng raised the stone above his head again and slammed it down with a backhand.

"Mmm~ Mmm mmm~"

Painful groans kept coming from the smelly sack. Just as Fang Meng was about to strike for the third time, Xie Weidong suddenly reached out and stopped him.
