Chapter 46: What happened!?

The guards at the gate were the same ones present the day Li Jun had shown off his token the last time Li Chen's gang had caused him trouble. 

Han Jie gulped as he saw Li Chen and the chubby boy in such a miserable state. The other two quickly dried their tears to avoid embarrassment as they approached the guard checkpoint. 

"What happened!?" Han Jie ran to meet them.

Li Jun turned to the two boys, who were trying to hide evidence of their tears as Han Jie spoke.

"Why don't you two explain?" Li Jun asked, his voice cut deep into their souls as the scene of him crippling Li Chen flashed through their minds.

The two boys took it in turn to explain what had happened. This included their plan to lure Li Jun out into the fields to attack him and the part where Li Chen had tried to attack Mr Bai with his sword.

Li Chen tried to shout for them to be silent, but the rope in his mouth muffled his screams.
