Xu Damao is no longer the scoundrel he was twenty years ago. In recent years, he has truly devoted himself to the restaurant, so he shouldn't be up to any other trouble.

However, Li Chu wasn't sure about this, after all, you can't judge a book by its cover.

Just like his brother-in-law, who started playing tricks as soon as he had a little money.

Lou Xiao'e may have already finished crying when she first met Ding Qiunan, because she didn't shed a single tear after meeting Li Chu, though her anxious expression was very obvious.

About twenty minutes later, the phone rang.

"Hello, this is Li Chu."

...

"Jiadong, you speak."

...

"Taifeng? Are you sure?" Li Chu looked up at Lou Xiao'e.

...

"Okay, then we won't go over there. Just pick them up and bring them directly to me. Jiadong, don't try anything forceful. If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll think of another way."

...

"Okay, be careful."

"It's not a big problem, Xiao'e. She's definitely not from the east of the city, she's from Taifeng. Jiadong is going to pick up Damao now, and he should be here soon if nothing unexpected happens."

"Phew~" Lou Xiao'e seemed to relax immediately after hearing Li Chu's words and let out a long breath.

"Thank God," she said, clasping her hands together and bowing to the sky.

"Brother Chu, when I came here, I was afraid they were imposters."

Let alone her, even Li Chu had doubts about whether Lou Xiao'e was a kidnapper after hearing what she said earlier.

Now that it's confirmed that the police took him away, at least his life is safe.

If Xu Damao really did something illegal, then he should just cooperate with the investigation.

While the three of them waited anxiously, Wang Jiadong had already driven to the Taifeng branch of the Public Security Bureau.

After he arrived, he went over, signed a document for someone, and then took Xu Damao out.

It wasn't a big problem to begin with.

Well, Xu Damao was lucky.

A while ago, the police seized a batch of smuggled goods in Beijing. The owner had fled, and some of the goods had already been sold. However, the police didn't know exactly what was sold, which is why the entire city is investigating.

Just then, someone reported that he had a lot of air conditioners of dubious origin. After a private investigation, it turned out that they were indeed of dubious origin, and at least the commercial departments in Beijing had never handled this batch of goods.

So if they don't take him, who else will they take?

As for why the report was filed with Taifeng, well...

After walking to the car, Wang Jiadong handed Xu Damao a cigarette, lit it for him, and asked, "Mr. Xu, do you know who reported you?"

"I'm still completely confused. The air conditioner in our restaurant has been installed for two months now. Why did he only report it now, and why did he report it in this district?"

"Oh right, you really have that ticket you were talking about, right?"

“Absolutely. I was just worried about this happening, so when I asked someone to buy it, I specifically requested that they be able to issue an invoice from the local commerce department.”

"Okay, that's fine. Give me the tickets tomorrow, and you don't need to worry about the rest."

"become"

"Don't worry about who reported you. Just think about giving me a possible list, and I'll let you know when I find out. Keep a low profile for now."

"I understand. I'll listen to you. I won't go to restaurants for the next few days, except for necessary shopping."

"Okay, let's talk about it after you've completely sorted out this matter. Come on, get in the car, I'll take you to my uncle's place."

"It must have been my wife who went and told your uncle."

“The matter here at Taifeng is easy to resolve. It’s just that finding out who reported you might be a bit difficult. Don’t worry.”

"I'm not in a hurry. My belief has always been that a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years."

"Don't overthink it. It's not a big deal. Just contact me if you think of anything."

"no problem."

Xu Damao's face was as black as the bottom of a pot at this moment.

He's always the one who plays dirty tricks, but I never expected him to get tricked this time. Although he didn't suffer any losses, it's still really disgusting.

Fortunately, none of the elderly people in the family live with them now, otherwise, given the situation at that time, they might have been quite frightened.

With no cars or people on the road late at night, Wang Jiadong floored the accelerator and sped home.

"I'll drop you off at the intersection and then I won't go in. I'm still on duty at the station and can't be away for too long. Please tell my uncle."

"OK"

Three people were chatting idly in the living room when the dogs that had been lying in the middle of the room stood up, their ears twitching.

"It must be them. I'll go open the door. You two have a seat."

Li Chu stood up and walked outside.

Seeing that he had left, Lou Xiao'e said somewhat embarrassedly, "Qiu Nan, could you check my hip in the bathroom? It looks like I fell and hurt it; it still stings a lot."

"Why didn't you say so earlier? Let's go, let's go."

"Brother Chu is here, I'm too embarrassed to say it."

"What's wrong with you? He's a doctor, so what if he knows? If you go to the hospital and you run into a male doctor, you're not going to get seen?"

Ding Qiunan picked up the medicine from the table, took Lou Xiao'e's arm, and walked towards the bathroom.

"Qiu Nan, why do you only have four dogs left? Where are the others?"

"Hey, you're still not in pain and you still have the mind to think about other things. The other four are helping to look after the children in Wenxuan's room."

"Can they also help look after children?"

"Why not? When Wenxuan and Wenhui were little, those dogs in front of them helped take care of them. They never fell and cried when they were learning to walk, all thanks to them."

"Then when your dog has puppies, give me two of them."

"You've always refused, haven't you?"

"I want to raise one now."

"No problem, I'll give you two when you have your babies."

...

As Li Chugang opened the door and stepped out, he saw Xu Damao turn the corner.

"Brother Chu, I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"I just made a phone call to go in and check on your wife. She rushed over here and fell off her bike, scraping her hand badly."

"Oh? It's in the living room, right?"

They asked that question, but their feet were already on the ground, and they didn't care about being afraid of dogs anymore.

When Li Chu closed the front door and returned to the living room, he saw Xu Damao spinning around in circles.

"What happened? Where is everyone?"

"Hey, he's in the bathroom. They said he fell and hurt himself there too, and his sister-in-law is helping him apply medicine."

Xu Damao pointed to his hip bone.

"It's nothing serious. You can still walk, so your bones should be fine. Have a seat." Li Chu poured him a glass of water and placed it on the coffee table.

The bathroom door was already open, and as soon as Lou Xiao'e came out, she saw her man. She couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and without caring about being shy, she threw herself into his arms and cried.
