Zhang Guoqing, a 21st-century orphan, and his pregnant wife, Zhou Jiao, were working hard for their future when a massive inheritance suddenly fell into their laps. On their way to the hospital for...
When the bugle sounded for the end of get off work, Zhang Guoqing rode his 28-bar bicycle to Ping'an School first. When he learned that he had been picked up by his grandfather, he returned to the nursery in the compound and did not go with his grandfather.
There was no problem leaving the children with the father-in-law, especially since his family was safe and capable. It would be impossible for five or six people to take him away, not to mention that the three children were always carrying self-defense equipment.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he turned around and rode his bike out of the gate, following the bus route and heading towards the city. He was not at all worried about taking the wrong road with his wife.
This is not the future, even the number of vehicles on the streets of the capital is limited. Moreover, his wife has a very good sixth sense, so maybe she discovered him before he found him.
The three brothers happily followed Zhou Xiaozheng home, chattering and asking questions like, "Grandpa, how come you have time?" and "Grandpa doesn't have to go to work anymore?"
It’s no wonder the children have so many problems, because anyone in the family could take them home, but their grandfather only takes them to school and rarely picks them up after school.
"It's been a while since I've taken you three home." Zhou Xiaozheng changed the subject and asked the twins with a smile, "Did you have any arguments with other kids in class?"
Ping'an looked thoughtfully at his grandfather's hand holding his tightly, lowered his eyes, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes that was inconsistent with his age.
He kept smiling until he got out of the car at the door of his house. After Aunt Chen prepared the hot tea and milk and left, he put on a stern face and looked at Zhou Xiaozheng.
"Grandpa, is someone trying to attack me?" No wonder he asked that. Compared to his younger brothers who had been in the kindergarten in the compound for years, he had room for others to take advantage of him on his way to and from school.
But those people underestimated him!
The two little brothers Liuyi and Wuyi, who had been smiling all the time, immediately put down their milk cups and looked at their grandfather when they heard what their brother said.
Zhou Xiaozheng was not surprised by the children's behavior. He smiled at them comfortingly and said, "We have to wait for your mother to come back and see what she says."
Liuyi frowned, "Aren't you going to pick up mom?"
Wuyi looked at the alarm clock in the living room and said, "Dad is not back yet. He went to pick up Mom."
Liuyi nodded, "Yeah, that makes sense."
"Don't be afraid, brother. We will protect you."
"..." Ping An paused, "Uh, brother, thank you first."
Wuyi waved his hand generously, "You're welcome, brothers, together we can achieve great things."
"If you dare to touch my brother, I will kill those bad guys single-handedly." Liuyi said this with his arms raised and waving in a fierce tone, which was particularly cute with his fair and tender little face.
Zhou Xiaozheng's mood brightened considerably after being interrupted by the three brothers. "Okay, we don't know what to do now. We'll discuss it after your mother comes back. Drink your milk first."
This milk is directly supplied by the company below. It is less expensive than milk powder, but the three brothers will inevitably dislike it if they drink too much. However, the three children are particularly good at one thing: they know it is good for growth, so they just drink it in one gulp as if it were medicine.
Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao met halfway and joined together at the next platform. However, as there were many people getting off work, they had no time to talk much. He took the small note his wife handed him, turned around and went straight into the city.
This time he was really pissed off. The four words written clearly on the note were like a knife stabbing his lungs. He took a few deep breaths and quickened his pace to get into the city.
No matter who he was targeting this time, he had worked so hard for so long, but if he couldn't even protect his wife and children, then Zhang Guoqing would be a coward! He had to rely on his own abilities to get rid of this anger.
From the time he arrived in Beijing in 1959 until now, Zhang Guoqing has spent vast sums of money and made friends with all sorts of people. Is this simply to gain a reputation for being a righteous man? Haha, that would be underestimating him.
The man with bared fangs did not lose his mind in the rage. He began to analyze the situation around his father-in-law, and then looked for suspicious points on the white paper.
Being able to get close to his wife in the middle of the day without her noticing anything, this person not only has outstanding abilities but also has a deep connection with his family.
With this clue, Zhang Guoqing first made an excuse to go to Zhou Jiao's workplace to pick her up from get off work. Of course, his wife had already left, so it was impossible for them to meet.
But his target was the guard at the door.
Unlike asking Zhou Jiao to inquire in person, the personnel in the Fourth Department Building are complicated, and her every move can easily reveal her identity, but Zhang Guoqing will not do that.
His popularity is no exaggeration.
Upon learning that Zhou Jiao had already gone home from get off work, Zhang Guoqing was in no hurry to leave. He sat in the guard room and chatted with the old man, avoiding sensitive topics and starting with gossip about Wan Dayong's unit.
He waited for the old man to leave and pour tea, and he also checked the registration list of people coming and going today. By the time the old man reluctantly parted with him, he had almost summarized the few clues.
Such a warning reminds that it is impossible for people who are not relatives to take the risk, but according to Zhang Guoqing's analysis, the long-lost Lin Dinghui appeared in his sight.
This made him think more.
That young man who never spoke much, who only nodded and said hello when they met, was he sincere or was he just after profit? But no matter what the truth was, he couldn't alert the enemy. In the future, whether he was a human or a ghost, his purpose would always be revealed.
Furthermore, according to his understanding, Lin Dinghui was different from Lin Dingsheng. Although he had a vicious sister, he not only married a good wife of equal status and had a good in-laws, but he also did not seem to be very radical.
Zhang Guoqing remembered that the other party had been working in the secretariat after graduation, so it was not difficult to guess that he had heard these rumors, which also showed that the news was not groundless.
"Who is it? Cui Cui, urging reincarnation."
Zhang Guoqing curled his lips when he heard this and continued knocking on the door silently.
"Hey, Fifth Brother, you are a noble man, how could that gust of wind blow you here?"
As the door opened, a young man slightly older than him came out and pulled him inside with great joy. "Brother, I just got some good wine. Let's have a drink."
"How have you been lately?"
"That's just a bear! Fifth brother, you never come here for no reason, and you're in trouble? Which bastard is so blind? Brother, I'll help you vent your anger."
Zhang Guoqing waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't, you are not the same as before. You should live a good life and get married and have a big fat boy as soon as possible. That's the most important thing."
Having said that, after two or three bowls of wine, the man working at the Revolutionary Committee had completely revealed the recent trend. Since they had known each other since childhood, it was natural that they could confide in each other more.
That night, the same scene happened in different places in Beijing. With Zhang Guoqing's connections and scheming, he easily got all the detailed information when he returned home late at night.
There were indeed people who really wanted to pull his father-in-law on board, but they also knew that Zhou Xiaozheng was a stubborn person and if they angered him, they would become powerful opponents.
So this time, someone was secretly trying to find out about Ping An. According to an old friend of Zhang Guoqing, the other party had set up a life-saving scheme, intending to hire someone to kidnap Ping An and then rescue the Zhou family along the way.
These gangsters had all heard the news to some extent, but they had not told Zhang Guoqing about their nephew's affairs. Not only was there no need to do so, but the time was not right and they had not yet found a scapegoat.
Regardless of whether this was true or not, Zhang Guoqing sincerely thanked them one by one. If for no other reason, the favors he had secretly helped him with on several occasions were indeed genuine.
