Rural Beauty 056, Scene 056: Emerging from the Prison (Second Night) – Scene 056: Emerging from the Prison (Second Night) – 056 Emerging from the Prison, Midway Engine Failure, Again Midway Engine Failure This content features the textual narrative of Chapter 056 of Rural Beauty 056! Why is it always mid-way failure with Xiao Ying? Why is it always mid-way failure? What's the point? Can't even think through it! At this moment, Lu Yun feels exactly like a weary traveler lost in the desert—only to find a green oasis after a long journey, only to plunge into a sand pit just steps away, utterly frustrated and ready to scream. Goodness gracious, isn't this the police department deliberately trying to kill him? As soon as Lu Yun hears the police officers opening the door, he stops what he's doing, pushes his tools back, and closes his eyes, pretending to be dead. "Lu Yun, wake up—someone is coming to pick you up," one officer gently pushes him. "Picking me up? Didn't they say I'd be staying here for several days? Has the principal of the Lu Yun pretended to have just woken up, rubbing his eyes and looking bewildered at the tall hat before him, asking, "Who's coming to pick me up?" The officer grew impatient, saying, "We didn't know anyone either—turns out this person is quite influential. The County Public Security Bureau Director himself called us and asked us to release you. I never expected you to have such strong connections behind you. Hurry up, really? Are you going to stay here forever?" Reliable connections? Lu Yun was even more puzzled. I don't even know who my own parents are—how could I possibly have any solid backing? Despite his confusion, Lu Yun quickly rose and followed the officer out of the small cell. "Lu Yun, did they hit you at all?" As soon as Lu Yun entered with the officer, Zhou Quan rushed over, rushing to examine him thoroughly, as if he were going to take off his clothes and check him out to confirm his identity. This content is from Chapter 056 of "Rural Beauty." Lu Yun felt increasingly uncomfortable under the inspector's gaze, his arms prickling with goosebumps. Yet he hadn't expected to be picked up by Zhou Quan. Shaking his head, he said, "What's the point of fighting? The police officers are messengers of social peace—how could they do something like that? Isn't that right, Officer?" With a bright, childlike smile, Lu Yun flashed a toothy grin at the two officers. In his heart, however, he knew that without the principal of the education committee having previously coordinated with them, he would have surely received a few slaps and kicks upon entering. The two officers exchanged a shy smile and nodded in unison. "Officer, if no further formalities are required, I believe we should be on our way." Li Huanshan tried to keep his tone courteous, though an undercurrent of inherent coldness remained, making his words feel slightly chilly. "Very well, Mr. Li. Have a pleasant day." Li Huanshan gave the officers a gentle nod, said a polite word to Zhou Quan, and then left the police station. After nearly a full day locked up, Lu Yun finally had the chance to step outside and catch his breath. Now he truly understood how vital freedom is to a person. The group piled into the car, and Awai started the engine, smoothly driving toward the school. "Zhou Quan, the one sitting in front is your cousin, isn't it?" Lu Yun asked softly, glancing at Li Huashan, who sat straight and composed in the副driver's seat, while seated behind. "Yes," Zhou Quan nodded, then suddenly remembered something and launched into a long tirade at Lu Yun, "You must be out of your mind! How could you steal the school's parallel bars? You didn't even ask me for money—you went and stole! What the hell!" Zhou Quan's outburst immediately dampened Lu Yun's initial excitement. He sighed, feeling let down, and said, "I was completely played." Then he recounted in full detail everything that had happened after meeting Li Guang. "Hey, you still treat me like a brother, right? You wanted to buy a gift for Xiao Ying, and you didn't even ask me for money—why did you have to go and steal it? If it hadn't been for the coincidence that my cousin happened to be visiting the county for business, you'd have been stuck there for ten days or so!" "Brotherhood means brotherhood, but I can't keep relying on you forever." It was actually Zhou Quan's cousin who had caused this mess! Though he had the principal's promise, he couldn't manage to catch Li Guang once—he'd be stuck at the police station every day. He felt genuinely grateful and, as he looked at Li Huashan's back, said, "Brother Huashan, thank you so much." Li Huashan didn't turn around, simply replied, "Please, I'm helping you out on behalf of Xiao Quan. Just keep your eyes open in the future—otherwise, you'll end up being sold and still have to count the money." This content is from Chapter 056 of the series "Rural Beauty." "Li Huanshan gave Lu Yun a few lukewarm remarks, and Lu Yun felt a warm flush spread across his face. Zhou Quan watched it all and chuckled, saying, 'No problem. My uncles have always been like this—cold as ice to everyone, yet inside, they're as warm and passionate as a flame. A true good person.' Hearing this, Li Huanshan shook his head and remarked, 'Little Quan, is there anyone who actually describes your uncle this way? Wouldn't people laugh at you?' 'What's there to be afraid of? Lu Yun and I are like true brothers. We've been so close that we've even reached the point where we don't share spouses, and everything else is completely shared.' With a proud little hop, Zhou Quan moved to stand behind Li Huanshan and smiled, saying, 'Uncle, from now on, Lu Yun will be your brother too. Please treat us well.' Li Huanshan sighed and shook his head, saying, 'Little Quan, your stickiness has truly improved.' Zhou Quan beamed and sat back down beside Lu Yun, whispering, 'Lu Yun, I think our class president has taken a liking to us.' Lu Yun was taken aback, pursing his lips. "Stop making things up! I always tease her—she's already resentful of me. Besides, I'm so poor, I'm practically scraping by. How could she possibly see me as anything more than a joke? Don't start pulling my leg now." "Seriously, I'm not kidding," Zhou Quan said, seeing Lu Yun still unconvinced. He recounted in vivid detail the entire scene when Lu Yun had been taken to the police station, describing how Liang Hongyu had cried like a broken-hearted woman. "You saw how devastated she was, didn't you? Her beautiful eyes, full of tears, reduced to just a narrow slit. If it hadn't been for you, I'd have gone over and comforted her right away. Honestly, being with you has been making my own luck fade. I'm starting to feel rather underwhelming." Lu Yun rubbed his head, still puzzled as to why Liang Hongyu would find him appealing. He then asked, "Zhou Quan, have you seen Xiao Ying?" "No. When I returned, it was already close to class time. I heard about you being taken to the police station and simply didn't have But you'd better get used to the idea—now you've become a school celebrity. You'll have to explain things thoroughly to Xiao Ying; quite a few people are interested in her. Don't let things go south and lose her to someone else. Before Land Yun could speak, Li Huashan suddenly turned around and glanced at him from the front row. "Once you're at school, bring out your girlfriend. I have something to ask her." "Uncle Huashan, I—well..." "Don't worry. I have no ill intentions. I just want to clear your name." Zhou Quan added from the side: "Land Yun, just listen to your cousin. If he says he can clear your name, then he definitely will." ... Rural Beauty No. 056, 056 Out of the Cage (Second Update) Complete!
