Chapter 156 Conditions
Tian Qingrong was indeed wrong.
When Zhang Yaping's mother and brother came over, Xing Dongyang had just fallen asleep after taking medicine.
Apart from Lao Qi and Lao Lin who were taking a nap in the woodshed, Su Tong was the only one in the yard. After finding out why they came, she immediately understood the reason for Xing Dongyang's abnormal behavior.
Xing Dongyang did save her, but this was a matter between her and Xing Dongyang. She would thank him in her own way. Being used by others again and again would only make people more disgusted.
Zhang Yaping has done many evil things, and she will not let go easily of what she owes to her and the two old men.
Zhang Yaping's family wanted to protect her and wanted to use Xing Dongyang's life-saving grace to morally blackmail her, but she refused to accept it.
"I understand your desire to save your family, but Zhang Yaping broke the law and she should be punished by law. If everyone can use favors to exchange for their mistakes and let them go easily, then it will be a mess."
"Heh..." Zhang Zhenglin smiled and said:
"Little girl, it seems that you don't want to give Dongyang this face. I originally thought that you were a grateful person and would not make things difficult for Yaping even for Dongyang. I didn't expect that I overestimated you!"
Su Tong said calmly, "I overestimated Zhang Yaping. When I let her go for the first time for Brother Xing's sake, I thought she would learn her lesson, but I didn't expect her to become even worse. If I let her go again for Brother Xing's sake, I would be really sorry for Brother Xing's face!"
Zhang Zhenglin's expression suddenly changed, and he sneered:
"The little girl is so innocent and righteous that she doesn't know how big the world outside is! Even if we don't care about Dongyang's face now, you should understand that the world is not black and white. The law can maintain justice, but the law also relies on evidence, and law enforcers also rely on human feelings. I am not deliberately bullying you. Let me put it this way! I can easily handle Yaping's matter even in Jing City, let alone in this remote town."
Su Tong smiled, "But you still chose to come to me, it's just that coming to me is the easiest and most effective way! Besides, you have to see with your own eyes whether I, the client, can be dealt with easily and whether there will be any hidden dangers. After all, there is more than one client, and you are not sure you can shut everyone up."
Zhang Zhenglin's face darkened again and he said:
"We came to you because we respect you! We have followed the rules and made friends. Otherwise, we could have solved this matter without you. I am speaking frankly to give you a chance. You can ask for any conditions, whether it is money, a job, or even a house or a car. As long as you ask, I will do everything I can for you... He who knows the current situation is a hero. I don't think you are the kind of person who is stupid."
Su Tong smiled faintly, "I know what you mean! You want me to not be ignorant of the immensity of the world, and you also want me to not be ignorant of the way out, not be ungrateful when a toast is made, and not be ungrateful when given an opportunity! Right! Unfortunately... I am not short of money, nor do I want to work, I am not used to living somewhere else, and I am not interested in driving! Instead, it is Zhang Yaping who has repeatedly tried every means to destroy me. If I let her go again and again, I will be doing myself a disservice."
Zhang Zhenglin folded his arms, sneered and said:
"Little girl, you are so young, don't act so indifferent! Yaping is my biological sister, and I am here this time to bring her back safely!"
"I'll just be honest with you. Yaping's father and I work in the Beijing Municipal Education Department, and I work in the Beijing Municipal United Front Work Department. I don't know if you've heard of these departments, or if you understand what they mean... Girl, you should know that a higher-ranking official can crush a person! I can do whatever I want to do about this matter!"
After saying that, he slowed down his tone and said:
"The reason why I'm standing here and telling you so much is just to be fair to you. No matter what, you've been wronged and frightened, and we just want to make it up to you. So... think about it again. As long as you can bring it up, I'll do it for you! This is the only chance. If you don't want it... I'll handle this matter my way!"
He originally thought that the little girl would be indignant and make an impassioned speech. After all, she had just behaved stubbornly and was indeed not so easy to get rid of.
Unexpectedly, Su Tong remained silent.
After thinking for a moment, Su Tong smiled and said:
"Tsk! I'm not without desires! Since you've said that, I really do have something I want to ask you for help with. If you can do it, everything will be easy."
Zhang Zhenglin stretched out his hand towards him, motioning for her to speak.
At the same time, I felt relieved. She was just a country girl who looked a little smarter and more talkative than others. She really thought she was something important!
It's not that he doesn't have other ways, but as she said, this one is the most effective and hassle-free. If it can be done well, he won't have to go through so many levels of people, which is time-consuming and laborious.
Su Tong didn't say anything, but took out a pen and paper, wrote a line on the paper, and handed it to him.
Zhang Zhenglin took it casually, wanting to see what unusual conditions she could offer.
As a result, after just one look, I almost jumped up!
His expression changed immediately, and he stared at Su Tong for five full seconds before blurting out two words:
"Nonsense—"
Yang Juan and others who were waiting nearby had already become anxious and wanted to pull the paper over to take a look, but Zhang Zhenglin raised his hand to avoid her and did not let her see it.
Su Tong remained calm, his eyes bright and calm:
"Don't jump to conclusions about whether this is nonsense or not. If this matter is done by others, it is indeed nonsense, but for your family, it is definitely possible to accomplish it. You said that I can set any conditions, and what I proposed is not unrealistic and without basis. You have more channels than me, so you can go back and inquire about the policies and trends, and then consider whether what I said is feasible!"
Zhang Zhenglin finally put away his contemptuous and disdainful expression and began to look at the girl in front of him seriously.
Su Tong stood there with a smile on her face. She looked like a teenage girl. How could she say those words just now?
Zhang Zhenglin stared at her for a long while, and said in an incredulous tone:
"You are so audacious! We have many ways to get Yaping out! We can't take risks with you! Forget it, just pretend I have never been here, and don't regret it!"
Zhang Zhenglin said this, brushed off his sleeves, turned around and walked out.
Su Tong calmly continued:
"The Ministry of Education and the United Front Work Department happen to be the two key departments for this matter. As long as you are determined to do it, it will be easy to do it! The difficult part is - can you take the lead when the policy is still unclear? If you can't make a decision yourself, I suggest you go back and discuss it with your father...
It should be easier for him to think clearly. This matter can not only solve my problem, but it is also very likely to be a great opportunity for your Zhang family!"
Zhang Zhenglin stopped, turned around and stared at Su Tong in disbelief.
