The car stopped in front of a building. Fang Zeyu led the way into the 4th floor. The elevator doors opened, and there was a huge sign on the wall that read "Hua'an Security Company".

"Boss, have you been drinking?" A man in a security guard uniform asked with a grin as soon as he entered.

"What's wrong with the boss having a drink? With his alcohol tolerance, he could drink ten catties of liquor and still not be knocked out." Another man was also grinning, acting all serious.

Fang Zeyu glanced over, and the two men, who had been smiling, immediately stopped and stood at attention with serious expressions.

Why did you call me this morning?

"Report, several companies have called wanting to renew their leases, and some documents need your signature." The speaker was Mao Weiping, Fang Zeyu's brother who had gone through thick and thin with him. Mao Weiping was seriously wounded on the battlefield and lost a leg. He now works in an office at a security company and is also a minor shareholder.

After being released from prison, Fang Zeyu was somewhat lost and went to find some of his comrades. Two of their comrades had died, two were seriously injured, and he was the only one who was fully recovered. When he arrived, he learned that his two comrades had been assigned to a low-level government office to do nothing and wait to die.

Some of my comrades-in-arms were assigned to factories. At that time, most factories were not doing well, and the wages were not much. Many of them did not even have jobs. Most of them worked as security guards and gatekeepers, while some went directly to work on construction sites.

Fang Zeyu felt this shouldn't be the case. After thinking about it for a long time, he mortgaged the house left to him by his grandparents and used the money he had saved to open this security company. When Mao Weiping heard the news, he also invested his savings and took a leave of absence to come to Nancheng to help him. Apart from him and Mao Weiping, all the employees were veterans, many of whom came from their own military units and had seen bloodshed. Protecting an ordinary wealthy businessman was no big deal for them.

Having gathered such a group of people, the government was also afraid and specifically asked him to have a talk. The security company almost died before it even started. Fang Zeyu had no choice but to go to his old boss. It was then that his old boss learned about his wrongful imprisonment. He was severely scolded, and then his boss gave him approval, and that's how the company was established.

After this incident, many well-informed people learned about this security company. These days, people with a little money value their lives, and after that, orders poured in.

Anyway, those who came from the same place as him all became personal bodyguards. Ordinary veterans went to work as security guards in some companies. It was a rental employment, which meant that the security guards' personnel rights were still with their companies. They would go to work for the company, and the company would transfer the money to the security company, and then they would pay their salaries.

On the surface, the security guards' salaries are about the same as those hired from outside the community. In reality, with various subsidies and bonuses, they are much higher than those hired from outside the community. It's all the brothers' hard-earned money. Fang Zeyu only takes a small portion of the commission. As for the company that hires them, there's no need to worry. They have signed a contract with the security company, so there's no need to worry about not having enough staff. Besides, with that reputation, the company's security is guaranteed.

In recent years, wealthy people from other places have come to them to hire security guards, and Fang Zeyu is planning to open one in Beicheng.

"Old Fang, someone downstairs said they've found the woman," Mao Weiping said suddenly, putting down a stack of contracts.

"I understand." Fang Zeyu carefully reviewed the contract. It concerned the interests of his brothers, and he absolutely could not allow any mistakes to occur.

"You know? Then what are your plans?" Mao Weiping thought Fang Zeyu was unaware.

Many years have passed. The high school girl he saved back then has now graduated from university and gotten married. Fang Zeyu has no intention of causing her any trouble.

"The culprits are still those boys and their families. As for the little girl... she was also threatened. Let it go."

“How can we just let it go? If she hadn’t turned around and accused you, would you have been wrongly imprisoned for so many years? You taught me that mistakes should be punished.” Mao Weiping was relatively indignant and hated evil.

“That’s when facing an enemy,” Fang Zeyu said, putting down the contract and looking at Mao Weiping.

"They are your enemies now, and they are my enemies too." If it weren't for them, Fang Zeyu wouldn't be like this now.

“So I’ve been investigating their and their father’s crimes. We have quite a few leads now and will be successful soon. If we want revenge, we just need to find these culprits. As for that girl…” Fang Zeyu shook his head and sighed. Emotionally, he could not forgive the girl’s actions, but rationally, he understood why she made that choice.

Speaking of women, Fang Zeyu couldn't help but think of Shu Yan. They were both human, yet one bit back, while the other, who had clearly saved Dou Dou first, remained grateful to him and not only cooked dinner for him all those days but also invited him to the housewarming party today.

He never expects gratitude from others when he helps them, but he feels incredibly happy if he receives something in return.

In addition, Shu Yan's kindness also moved him. Not everyone would discover human traffickers, and even if they did, they would report it to the police, let alone stand up and identify them in a critical moment.

"I'm talking to you, did you hear me?" Mao Weiping tapped the table, then looked at Fang Zeyu suspiciously. "Something's not right! Old Fang, you've been acting very strangely lately. Tell me honestly, is something going on?" Mao Weiping raised his eyebrows and looked at him ambiguously.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"Oh dear, what did I say that made you so anxious? It can't be true, can it? Which girl?" Mao Weiping was genuinely worried. He was married before the accident and had a son. After being seriously injured and returning to his hometown, his wife stayed by his side and took care of him. So his family life was very harmonious. However, Fang Zeyu went to jail because of what happened back then, and his reputation was ruined by his stepmother. He is still unmarried at the age of thirty-five.

Fang Zeyu frowned. "Really, no. You know my reputation, don't talk nonsense."

"What's wrong with your reputation? I'm telling you, you're too rigid. What era are we living in? So what if you've been to jail? You were wrongly accused, and your name will be cleared soon. Besides, everyone keeps talking about your jail time, but why don't they talk about how many merits you made in the army and how many people you saved?" Mao Weiping stood up excitedly.

"Alright." Fang Zeyu glanced at Mao Weiping and continued reading the documents. "Work."

On the other side, Shu Yan and Lin Hui finally managed to move the table and bowls back, and the two of them sat on the floor, exhausted.

"I have some things to take care of at home, so I'll head back first." After recovering, Lin Hui got up to say goodbye.

"Okay, thank you for your help today. I'll come find you on the morning of the 25th." After seeing Lin Hui off, Shu Yan was about to pack up the dried goods that Hu Ruixue had given her and then rest. Just as she was about to close the door, she saw Sister Zhang come out of the elevator.

"Sister Zhang is back."

"Oh, you've moved in here?" Sister Zhang glanced at Shu Yan and said happily, "Oh my, it'll be lively from now on."

She moved in at the end of last month. She was the only household on the entire floor, and she was used to the staff housing building, so it took her a while to adjust.

“Yes, when the family across the hall moves in on the 25th, our floor will really be lively. Sister Zhang, you’re back so late, haven’t you had lunch yet? Why don’t you have a meal at my place?” Shu Yan opened the door and invited Sister Zhang in.

"No need, no need, I ate at my parents' house." After saying that, she sighed, "My distant relative is here again. The old house is empty, but all the things have been moved here. I came back to get a quilt."

"That relative from last time?"

“Yes, it’s that relative.” This time, Sister Zhang didn’t complain. “Her daughter is studying at Nancheng University. I only found out last time. You know, when her child got into Nancheng University, she should have come to my house to register.”

Shu Yan thought to herself, "You didn't say that last time. You even complained that they weren't being fair."

"Come see the child?" Shu Yan asked first.

“Yes, my relative is pitiful. Her husband died young, leaving behind only a daughter. Fortunately, the daughter is doing well and got into Nancheng University. Once she graduates, she'll be guaranteed a job and can finally enjoy life. But it's not easy for them in the countryside to support a college student. This time, besides taking care of the child, she's also trying to find a job. She came to us for help, but can you believe how hard it is to find a job these days? We ourselves don't even know when we'll be laid off, how can we help her?” Sister Zhang sighed. “But she can only manage for a few more years. Unlike me, with four children…”

"How old is she? What's her character like?" Shu Yan's heart stirred upon hearing this.

"She's 39 this year. What? Do you have any good job recommendations you can help her with? She's really hardworking. She's never made my mother-in-law and I fight while she's living at my house. She's also very clean and has good character. My mother-in-law says she's never argued with anyone in the village." Sister Zhang enthusiastically introduced her relative.

Shu Yan has been looking for a nanny recently. A reliable nanny is really hard to find. First of all, she can't be too young or too old. If she's too young, Shu Yan is worried that she won't be able to take good care of the child. If she's too old, she'll have to worry about her health. So, 35 to 45 years old is the best. Secondly, she has to be clean, especially when cooking. If the vegetables or dishes aren't washed properly, Shu Yan really can't eat them. Most importantly, she has to be a good person. After all, she's counting on her to pick up and drop off the child. She's seen news about nannies abducting children. She has to find someone she knows well.

And now I've met one, 39 years old, the right age, a relative of Sister Zhang, and I know him well. Most importantly, her daughter is studying at Nancheng University, and she only has one daughter. If she doesn't want her daughter to have a criminal mother, she would never do anything bad. As for cleanliness, we'll know after trying it for a while.
