Chapter 158

Chu Jiujiu and Han Shengyi were just talking casually. Although Chu Lijun came with bad intentions, he had not yet caused any substantial impact on the Chu family. Chu Jiujiu pointed him in the wrong direction just to kill his prestige.

There is a sign at the entrance of the police station. If a normal person sees the sign, he will know that he has been cheated and will not go in to cause trouble.

But she didn't expect that Chu Lijun was not a normal person.

In his early years, he lived with Old Lady Gao. He was destined to be a young master, but he still acted like one. Old Lady Gao felt that as long as Chu Xinghua was around, the child just needed to enjoy life. Therefore, Chu Lijun knew nothing since he was a child and was a bully of the weak and afraid of the strong.

Later, Chu Xinghua returned home and found that his second son was no longer worthless. No matter how useless he was, he was still his son. He thought about promoting him. However, he never expected that he would be so useless. As soon as he left home and came to the army, he had a conflict with his superiors and almost caused a loss of life.

Chu Lijun was a coward. He didn't have the courage to kill anyone. It was just an accident. The person wasn't seriously injured yet, but he was scared to death. When Chu Xinghua found out, he was angry and ashamed, and finally sent him abroad.

Chu Xinghua's idea at the time was very simple. Everyone in the country knew that he was a loser, so he might as well go abroad for a while and get him an education. If he studied well, he could find a good job when he came back. If he didn't study well, he could be made to suffer abroad for a few years to temper his temper.

Because of this incident, Chu Xinghua actually didn't give him much money. At best, he could only support himself. Later, when the Chu family got into trouble, no one gave Chu Lijun money, and he became even worse off.

In fact, it is not easy to become like him.

After staying in the United States for several years, even an illiterate person should have learned a few words of English. However, Chu Lijun knew nothing. When he had money, he just ate and drank for free. When he had no money, he just hung around Chinatown. Before Zhang Nan met him, he was no different from a beggar.

At first, he lived a life of luxury, then he went through a period of hardship in the middle, and finally, he returned to the life of luxury.

If it were someone else, they would definitely be grateful and never dare to act tyrannically again. They would live every day with caution to avoid returning to the same situation. But Chu Lijun was different. He felt that since he had suffered so much, he should live a better life now and make up for all the life he had not enjoyed before.

As a result, Chu Lijun not only did not restrain himself, but became even worse than when he was a child.

When he was a child, at least he was afraid of people and would not dare to act recklessly when he saw the People's Liberation Army. Now that his father is gone, and looking at the country in a state of disrepair, he thinks everyone is superior to him.

When he arrived at the green door that Chu Jiujiu pointed to, Chu Lijun didn't even look up, but kicked the door open and went in.

In fact, he had just done the same thing at the Chu family, but the door of the Chu family was made of steel, and there was no one at the Chu family, so the door was locked, so he didn't cause any noise.

But this is the police station, and the door of the police station has always been open to the people.

——

Chu Lijun acted first and reported later. Zhang Nan just didn't see him for a while and let him be alone with Old Lady Gao for ten minutes, and then he disappeared.

Zhang Nan didn't know this, she and Chu Yue were having dinner outside.

Zhang Nan's family is rich and she herself is very capable. Chu Yue is particularly envious of her food, clothing, speech and behavior.

After hearing that she was an American citizen, a hint of surprise flashed across Chu Yue's face.

She has almost found out everything in the past few days. Zhang Nan has her own company in the United States and she manages hundreds of people. If she can take her to the United States, then she won't have to find an excuse to cancel the engagement with Ding Boyun.

Yes, the capital is Chu Yue's only hometown, but she also longs to go abroad! This is something that many people dream of. If her parents heard about it, they would definitely agree!

Moreover, if she goes to the United States, she won't have to work so hard to earn these few dozen dollars. I heard that even washing dishes in the United States can earn several thousand dollars a month!

Chu Yue was very excited. It had been a long time since anything could make her so excited.

Long live going abroad, this is the idea of the older generation. Even though Chu Yue is only eighteen years old, her soul is not much better than that of Old Lady Gao. Moreover, she thinks of one thing at a time and has no complete plan for her life.

Zhang Nan saw what Chu Yue was thinking. She smiled silently and continued chatting with Chu Yue.

"I heard you're getting married in the summer. We just met, and I don't have anything good to give you. Take this."

As he spoke, Zhang Nan took out a box from his bag, which contained a ladies' watch.

Chu Yue was a person of little knowledge, but she could tell at a glance that the bag Zhang Nan was holding was an LV, and she couldn't understand the words on the watch she took out, but she knew that it was an American product.

Chu Yue was extremely happy, but she had to suppress her expression. She put on the watch directly, then looked at Zhang Nan with a smile, "Second Aunt, you are too expensive."

"It's okay, it's not worth much."

The more nonchalant she was, the more Chu Yue felt she was very capable. She was just about to mention asking her to take her abroad when she heard Zhang Nan say, "Sister-in-law said your boyfriend is ten years older than you. It's better to be older; he'll be more caring. This ring on your hand is the wedding ring he bought for you, right?"

At that time, there was no custom of giving rings for marriage. Chu Yue did not have any suspicion. After all, Zhang Nan lived in a foreign country, and this custom was originally introduced from abroad.

After receiving the gift, Chu Yue answered all of Zhang Nan's questions: "No, this is mine. We haven't even proposed yet."

Zhang Nan raised an eyebrow, looking curious. "Really? Then your ring is quite unique. What's on it? Wood?"

Chu Yue looked down and to be honest, after all these years, she still didn't understand what material this thing was made of.

She even forgot how this thing came into her hands.

In her previous life, she was displaced and moved many times, and the things around her were also replaced one after another, but she always kept some old things, which were all things she liked when she was a child. Some were candy wrappers, some were iron rings, and some were newspapers she cut out. This small piece of wood, no one knew how long it had been in her pile of junk. When she found it, she no longer remembered when she put it in.

When she was a child, she had the habit of picking up things. She thought they were things from the past and the materials looked very special, so she never threw them away. But she didn't expect that when she was reborn, there was nothing around her except this little thing.

Chu Yue was unsure at first, but the longer time went by, the more she felt that it was this inconspicuous little piece of wood that gave her a chance to start over.

But it's also quite strange. I heard that some babies have the ability to protect their masters, and they will only use their abilities when their masters are in danger. But she was staying at home well, and her life had been boring for ten years. How could she suddenly be reborn?

Chu Yue couldn't figure it out, but she felt that this thing was a life-saving talisman. When she couldn't wear jewelry with her before, Chu Yue Bata put it in her pocket. Now she didn't care about that and just wore it on her hand.

Apart from anything else, after looking at it for a long time, she really thought the ring was pretty.

Chu Yue couldn't tell anyone about these things. After hearing Zhang Nan's question, she nodded and said, "Yeah, it's wood."

Zhang Nan asked again: "What kind of wood?"

Chu Yue replied: "Sandalwood."

Zhang Nan looked at Chu Yue and found that she answered very frankly.

Either she really thought it was sandalwood, or she had already thought of an excuse to deal with it.

After two seconds of silence, Zhang Nan laughed again. She was ready to change the subject. She kept talking about the ring. No matter how dumb Chu Yue was, she could notice that she paid too much attention to the ring. She brought the topic back to Chu Yue's wedding. Zhang Nan was about to start talking when suddenly, a middle-aged woman rushed in from outside the hotel and went straight to Chu Yue.

"Chu Yue, go check it out! Your second uncle has been locked up by the police, and your grandma is throwing a tantrum at home!"

Chu Yue was shocked, and Zhang Nan almost couldn't control his expression.

When they returned home, Mrs. Gao was still crying. It was not easy for the comrades from the police station to find them. They came to inform them that Chu Lijun was causing trouble and should be detained for a few days at least. Chu Yue's parents were not at home, Mrs. Gao was still sick, the house was a mess, and people were detained again. No matter how well-mannered Zhang Nan was, she wanted to curse when she saw the mess here.

No matter what, Chu Lijun was her husband, so she hurried to the police station to rescue him. Although Chu Lijun had been imprisoned, she had done her homework before returning to China. As long as she had connections and was willing to pay money, and it was not a big deal, the problem could be solved.

Zhang Nan was about to leave, and Chu Yue was still thinking about improving her favor and going abroad with her, so she naturally followed her. However, Mrs. Gao was left behind by this group of people, and no one remembered her.

This police station is quite far from Chu Lidi's home. Zhang Nan is not from here and she has no idea where this place is. However, Chu Yue, who was next to her, quickly discovered the problem.

She whispered to Zhang Nan, "My uncle lives nearby."

Zhang Nan looked at her in confusion. Could it be that Chu Liqiang sent Chu Lijun to the police station?

When he arrived at the police station and saw Chu Lijun cursing in anger, Zhang Nan finally understood the whole story.

"How dare you, that damn bitch, lie to me! The last time I saw her in the courtyard, I felt she was not a good person!"

Chu Lijun was very agitated. When Zhang Nan saw him like this, she knew that she couldn't pay any attention to him. She first apologized to the police and took out a large sum of money. The police waved their hands and refused to accept it, wanting to continue to detain Chu Lijun there. Zhang Nan tried to persuade him but it was no use. Finally, she had an idea and mentioned Chu Liqiang. She learned that Chu Lijun was the brother of the political commissar of the military region. They were afraid of causing trouble, so they made a big deal out of a small matter.

After leaving the police station, Chu Lijun was still furious. Zhang Nan didn't even want to talk to him anymore. Chu Yue, who was standing next to him, listened for a long time and suddenly asked Chu Lijun, "Second uncle, what does that woman you mentioned look like?"

Chu Lijun said angrily: "What else can it be, a vixen!"

Vixen is a derogatory term specifically for beautiful women. Chu Yue understood immediately after hearing it, "Second uncle, I know who this person is. She is Chu Jiujiu, eldest uncle's daughter. She must have guessed who you are, so she tricked you here."

Chu Lijun's eyes widened: "What?!"

Seeing Chu Yue nod affirmatively, Chu Lijun suddenly remembered the first time he met Chu Jiujiu. At that time, she said that she was not a member of the Chu family. The second time he met her, she said that Chu Liqiang had moved away.

With new and old grudges added together, Chu Lijun almost exploded on the spot. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to go find Chu Jiujiu. Chu Yue wanted to stop him, but Zhang Nan beside her didn't stop him.

Not only did she not stop him, she even became thoughtful.

There's no harm in meeting Chu Liqiang and the others. The ring on Chu Yue's hand is too strange, and why this ring is on her hand is also strange. Chu Liqiang is the real culprit. Let Chu Lijun make trouble first, and then she can clean it up.

Thinking of this, Zhang Nan's expression became relaxed. She followed Chu Lijun and walked towards the Chu family.
