Chapter 433 Pretending to be a Grandson

Seeing Chen Zhancai lying on the ground and unable to get up, the waiter was at a loss for a moment. "Boss, what should we do if this guy is acting like a rogue?"

The shopkeeper was so angry that his teeth were itching. "Hurry up and report to the government office. Let the officials deal with him and give him a good beating. Let's see if he dares to act like a fool again."

"Okay, I'll go right away." The waiter's face was filled with anger, and he kicked Chen Zhancai a few times with all his might. "You idiot, you have no money, so why are you pretending to be so powerful? You've tricked me into letting you boss me around like a grandson for so long. If I don't let the officials beat you with dozens of sticks, I won't be able to relieve the hatred in my heart."

After saying that, the waiter turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Chen Zhancai stopped pretending to be a grandson and hurried forward to hug the waiter's thigh, "Brother, I beg you, please don't report it to the police."

"Get out of the way. If you don't want to get beaten, get up and follow us."

"No, no, I'm not going anywhere." Chen Zhancai said, looking at the shopkeeper with pleading eyes, "Brother, calm down. I'm really in trouble. Even if you send me to the government, I won't be able to pay you the rent for a while. I beg you to be merciful and just treat me like a fart and let me go, okay?"

"You wish! Even if I don't want the money, I will still report you to the government and let the officials punish you!"

"No, no, no, brother, I beg you, as the saying goes, killing is not enough, so show mercy when you can. Besides, I really didn't lie to you. My family is rich and I will never lack your little money." Even at this time, Chen Zhancai was still bragging, fantasizing that he could persuade the store owner and find a chance to get away.

The shop owner didn't believe his lies, so he stepped forward, grabbed his arm and dragged him forward.

"Shopkeeper, my father is really the richest man in Anyang, Chen Baiwan. If you don't believe me, just go and ask around. I will definitely pay you back the money I owe you for your store. Don't report me to the authorities."

"I'm not refusing to pay for the hotel. I have my reasons. I met a female swindler in Ningjing who stole my money. If you don't believe me, I'll take you to that street to ask. I really was cheated..."

Chen Zhancai regretted it deeply at this moment. If he had known this would happen, he would not have acted so pretentiously and would not have dreamed of a romantic encounter.

But there is no regret medicine in the world, and now that things have come to this, he can only beg for mercy.

The shop owner remained indifferent and continued to drag him forward.

Chen Zhancai cried and howled, attracting passers-by to come and watch.

The streets, which were not that wide to begin with, were instantly blocked.

In this chaotic moment, a carriage slowly stopped.

"What happened up ahead? Why is the whole road blocked? They are really bored and have nothing better to do than to fight." The coachman said casually.

The people in the carriage heard him say this, but did not ask any more questions.

Suddenly, a noise outside caught the attention of the two people in the car.

"Uncle, listen, why does this voice sound so familiar?"

"Yes, Dabao, it sounds a bit like your third uncle's voice."

The two people in the car were Chen Zhanshan and Chen Dabao.

Since Dabao listened to Chen Qingqing's advice last time, he has started to expand the market to other states.

He had thought that this trip to Ningjing to sell sugar would be a bit difficult, but he did not expect it to be so smooth.

When he found the largest grocery store and introduced it to the owner, he became interested.

After just three days, the sugar sales contract was signed.

In order to allow the merchant to pick up the goods as soon as possible, he got up early and set off.

Dabao pricked up his ears and listened carefully, "Uncle, you are right, it is my third uncle's voice."

Chen Zhanshan nodded. "Isn't your Third Uncle here to take the exam? But from the sound of it, it seems like he's fighting with someone."

"Uncle, please stay in the car. I'll go take a look."

"I'll go with you, too."

Chen Zhanshan jumped off the carriage.

The two men came to the outside of the crowd and peeked inside on tiptoe. They saw Chen Zhancai slumped on the ground like a pile of mud, constantly saying nice things to a middle-aged man and a man dressed as a waiter.

Seeing his miserable state, the two of them frowned at the same time, with a hint of doubt in their eyes.

When they were confused, they listened to the whispers of the onlookers.

"What's going on with that guy sitting on the ground?"

"You haven't heard it yet. That man didn't pay for his stay at the hotel, and the owner wants to send him to see the authorities."

"I think the shop owner is too domineering. He said his family is rich, so why did he hit him?"

"He said he had money, but who knows what he's really doing? Maybe he's just a big liar who's just eating and drinking for free, otherwise the store owner wouldn't have reported it to the police."

"Yes, you're right. That guy said his father was Chen Baiwan. If that were true, how could he have stayed at the hotel on credit? That's just complete nonsense!"

"This guy looks like a thief, and you can't tell at first glance that he's not a good person."

"You can't say that. Maybe this guy is really a rich young man!"

"Come on, don't talk nonsense. You're just a coward, and what's the difference between you and a scoundrel?"

After listening to everyone's words, the two knew the whole story.

Dabao felt that Chen Zhancai was beyond help and showed a speechless expression.

The more Chen Zhanshan listened, the more he frowned. His family's life was in a mess because of him, but he was just bragging and talking big with the only hard-earned money of the family.

He deserves this outcome. People like him should be handed over to the authorities for investigation.

He couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "He's such a useless piece of crap, there's no redemption. Dabao, let's go and stay out of my business."

"Uncle, wait a moment." Dabao hurriedly stopped Chen Zhanshan who was about to leave, "Should we help my third uncle?"

"Dabao, I don't need to say much about your third uncle's character. It's better for you not to cause trouble." Chen Zhanshan was completely disappointed with Chen Zhancai and didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

Dabao shook his head and smiled, "Uncle, I don't want to help him, but have you ever thought about what my grandparents would do if he really got into trouble?"

"It's his fault for taking the family money and not using it in the right way. He brought this lawsuit upon himself. It might not be a bad thing to teach him a lesson."

"Uncle, you're wrong. If that were to happen, we'd be in big trouble. My uncle's behavior is a fraud, and is considered a crime under Daning law, such as 'disturbing the government' and 'suspiciousness'. At the very least, he'll be exiled to the frontier, and at the worst, he'll be sentenced to death."

After hearing what Dabao said, Chen Zhanshan felt a little moved. Although he was extremely disappointed with Chen Zhancai, they were brothers after all. If he didn't care, he would feel bad, but if he interfered, he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

Chen Zhancai was selfish and almost had his daughter sold off to make him study, and he himself was castrated to become a eunuch...

Every one of them was like a knife cutting into his heart and a spike piercing his bones. He would never forgive him...
