Feng Haidong lived an unremarkable life and passed away peacefully. After his death, he found himself back in 1996.
Now in his prime at the age of thirty, Feng Haidong resolves to try just a ...
As Feng Haidong was greeting customers at the entrance and helping them choose crayfish, he caught a sneaky figure approaching the edge of his restaurant out of the corner of his eye.
When he turned his head, he saw with his own eyes that the figure was actually trying to pry open the lock of a bicycle placed at the very edge of the restaurant.
Feng Haidong showed no mercy and rushed over to kick the person trying to pick the lock.
"Where did this thief come from? Daring to pick the lock at my shop? They've got some nerve."
He kicked the man to the ground, and then Feng Haidong quickly subdued him.
With his nearly 1.8-meter height and the strength he gained from years working in the factory, Feng Haidong managed to subdue the bicycle thief, who was unable to break free.
Then, Feng Haidong shouted into the store, "Whose bicycle is that outside?"
Soon, the people eating in the restaurant came out and saw Feng Haidong pinning a young man to the ground.
Then a young girl ran over and looked at her bicycle, which had not been successfully pried open.
"Thank you, boss. This is a bicycle I just bought, and I've only ridden it for two days."
Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Don't mention it."
Then Feng Haidong asked Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia to help entertain the guests, as he planned to take the young man who had broken the lock and stolen the car to the nearby police station.
However, just as Feng Haidong was about to take the person to the police station, his wife Lu Wanling and his brother-in-law Lu Yaobin arrived together.
After learning about the situation, Lu Yaobin took the person from his brother-in-law: "Brother-in-law, let me take the person there. You just opened your business today and you still need to take care of customers."
Feng Haidong looked at the young man who had picked the lock and stolen the car, and said very seriously, "I'm giving you a lesson. You'd better not do this kind of thing again."
The young man who stole the car was quite indignant.
"None of your business."
Feng Haidong said, "I can't be bothered with you, but you better not come here to steal cars. If I catch you again, I won't let you off the hook."
The young man remained very impolite, saying, "Hmph, how can you be impolite? Send me in, I'll only be in jail for a few days at most, and I'll remember you and come back to your shop."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lu Yaobin punched the other man in the stomach, saying viciously, "Let me tell you, stop acting all tough. Don't you even know who my brother-in-law is? Believe me or not, I'll make sure you can't sell any of the cars you stole."
Do you always take your car to Lao Qiu's place? Let me tell you, if you dare come again, I'll tell Lao Qiu he won't take your car anymore, believe me? You can try me if you don't believe me."
Lu Yaobin's warning was quite effective; the young man who stole the car instantly looked somewhat panicked.
"You...you know Lao Qiu?"
Lu Yaobin sneered, "Why don't you ask Lao Qiu when you get out and go to his place if he knows about Third Brother?"
The young man exclaimed in surprise, "You, you're Third Brother?"
Lu Yaobin said, "Go ask Lao Qiu yourself when you get out."
Upon hearing this, even the most naive person would understand and immediately began to beg for mercy.
"Third Brother, Third Brother, I really didn't know this was your shop. I shouldn't have come here to steal the car. Third Brother, please forgive me this time."
Lu Yaobin said, "Spare you? You'd better go to jail for a few days."
The other party could only plead again: "Third Brother, I didn't even succeed! Third Brother, please spare me this time."
Feng Haidong could tell that the other party was a habitual thief, and even if such a guy was sent to the police station, he would only be locked up for a while, and he would probably do the same thing again after he got out.
After thinking for a moment, Feng Haidong asked the woman whose car had been stolen, "Do you want to sue him? Or are you willing to forgive him this time?"
Hearing this, the woman hesitated for a moment before saying, "Maybe we should just forget about it. I don't want to go through any more trouble."
Upon hearing the woman's words, the young car thief quickly said, "Thank you, ma'am, thank you, boss, third brother. Look, they're not going to pursue this anymore. I promise this is the last time, I promise there won't be a next time."
Before his brother-in-law could speak, Feng Haidong interjected, "Did I say I was going to let you go?"
The young man was stunned, and so were the onlookers.
Then Feng Haidong said, "Third brother, take him inside. I'll come find you in the backyard later."
The young man was completely bewildered; he didn't quite understand what Feng Haidong wanted to do.
Although Lu Yaobin didn't know what his brother-in-law was going to do, he still obediently led the person inside.
Feng Haidong then said to the guests, "It's alright, it's alright. You can all go inside and continue eating. I'll have the staff keep an eye on your bicycles parked outside."
Upon hearing Feng Haidong's words, everyone went back to eat.
The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
After everyone had left, Lu Wanling asked curiously, "Why did you keep that thief here? You're not planning to use some kind of vigilante justice, are you?"
Feng Haidong said, "How could that be? Using vigilante justice is illegal. I would never do such a thing."
Then Feng Haidong asked, "How's things at home? Are Mom and Dad alright?"
Lu Wanling said, "Sigh, Mom and Dad are still a bit upset, but fortunately, because your parents are here, they have managed to persuade them and will not pursue Lu Yaobin's matter for the time being. Fanfan and the other children are also at home with them, and the elderly are in a relatively stable mood."
Feng Haidong nodded: "Okay, as long as Mom and Dad are in a stable mood."
Lu Wanling continued, "But Mom still doesn't want the third son to get a divorce."
Feng Haidong shook his head and said, "They've already come to our shop to say that it means Gong Ting's family has already made up their minds. Even if the third son doesn't agree, the two of them can't live together anymore."
