"Wang Shouren, you can leave now," Li Huaide said.
To be honest, capturing and dealing with Wang Shouren would cause some trouble.
However, if Wang Shouren were to report this to his superiors, he wouldn't be afraid at all; things were very chaotic outside at this time. The rules were no longer what they used to be. Therefore, he considered himself to have already given Wang Shouren face by coming here to see him.
Wang Shouren smiled and stretched.
Seeing Wang Shouren stand up with a cheerful expression, Li Huaide looked down on him even more.
This kind of person poses no threat whatsoever; they just want to live their own quiet life. How could they possibly...?
The thought hadn't finished circling in my mind.
He saw Wang Shouren walk to the front of the small room. The place where he was was actually a standard prison, with small rooms made of steel bars welded together. It was very quiet, but at the same time, it prevented anyone from escaping from here.
However, Wang Shouren reached out and grasped the steel bar.
I didn't see him exert any force, and then there was a crisp sound.
"Snap... Snap..." He snapped the steel bar in two sharp movements.
He casually tossed the broken steel bar aside.
The room fell silent.
The security captain who had been standing next to Li Huaide didn't dare to utter a sound.
Wang Shouren walked up to Li Huaide and stood still.
Li Huaide was completely dumbfounded. Could that thing really be broken by a person?
Wang Shouren extended his hand, and Li Huaide, startled, shrank back, but his movement was not as fast as Wang Shouren's outstretched hand. Wang Shouren then said in an extremely gentle tone, "Director Li, sometimes, rules exist to protect people, don't you think?"
Li Huaide swallowed hard, his voice changing: "You... what do you want?"
He was simply too shocked. He might be a simpleton, but he considered himself to have seen a bit of the world. He had never seen anyone cultivate strength to such an extent.
At this moment, he felt a little regret.
"What I want depends on your attitude. If you don't give me an explanation within three days, I will give you one." After saying this, Wang Shouren turned and left.
Li Huaide was left standing there, stunned.
After a while, his face turned bright red. This was the first and only time he had been so humiliated. He wanted to report it, but then he suddenly froze. He remembered what had happened before. He had been so smug, thinking that even Li Weiguo couldn't do anything to him, but conversely, he couldn't use the power of those above him either.
Should we really lead a raid on their house? But Liu Haizhong has already done so, and found nothing.
He suddenly realized that the rules, while unable to protect Wang Shouren, also seemed unable to protect him. Before, there were people above him keeping things in check, and everyone was happy. Now, those above no longer cared.
Thinking of this, he swallowed hard, glanced at the steel bars on the ground, and seemingly unwilling to believe it, picked up a piece and tried to bend it with all his might, but the steel bar didn't change in the slightest in his hands. He couldn't even bend it.
He turned to look at Captain Shen.
Captain Shen kept his head down the whole time; this was definitely not something he could hear.
Seeing Captain Shen's expression, he understood that this matter seemed to have exceeded his expectations.
It was already past midnight when I left the steel rolling mill.
As soon as she stepped out of the factory gate, she saw a pregnant woman looking in her direction. When she saw Wang Shouren come out, Qin Jingru's expression changed from anxious to excited, and she waved frantically at him.
"Why are you here? Why aren't you resting at home?" Wang Shouren jogged over and hugged her.
"It's not that I'm afraid of you... I was just thinking that if you couldn't come out today, I would... I would rush in and fight them..." Qin Jingru's voice was broken, as if she was suppressing her emotions.
"Alright, alright, everything's alright now, isn't it?" Qin's mother, who was standing nearby, said, "Let's go back quickly."
Qin's mother was also worried. What would happen to Qin Jingru if her son-in-law really got into trouble, leaving her all alone? Even though the family had enough to eat and drink now, Qin Jingru wasn't a city resident. If Wang Shouren went to jail, they really didn't know if they would survive, especially since she was pregnant.
I slowly walked back to the courtyard from the steel rolling mill.
Wang Shouren took Qin Jingru's hand.
Qin Jingru blushed slightly and whispered, "What are you doing? Mom is still here."
"Mom is walking ahead, don't be afraid, I want to hold your hand."
"Hmm..." Qin Jingru responded softly and silently followed Wang Shouren.
Moonlight filtered through the dark clouds and fell to the ground, casting the shadows of the three people on the ground, which grew longer and longer.
Back at the courtyard house, the third uncle hadn't closed the door yet; he was still guarding the entrance.
Seeing Wang Shouren return with Qin Jingru, he breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but tease, "Good lad, you took your wife and mother-in-law out, leaving this old man here to feed the mosquitoes. You're really something."
"Thank you for your trouble, Uncle San." Wang Shouren smiled. This old man was still as interesting as ever.
"Alright, hurry up and go in. You're exhausted today. Don't worry about the house, it's all tidied up." The third uncle chuckled and turned off the light by the door. He took back his small stool and went into the room.
At Qin Huairu's house, Qin Huairu would occasionally look outside.
"Mom, what are you looking at?" Banggeng asked curiously, looking outside as well.
“Your aunt went out, and I’m a little worried,” Qin Huairu said.
"I think you're just worrying unnecessarily. Such a high-ranking leader, what could possibly happen to him?" Jia Zhangshi rolled over, trying to make herself more comfortable. She'd been doing quite well these past few years, and she couldn't be bothered to think about whether Qin Huairu was thinking about Qin Jingru or Wang Shouren. Besides, Qin Jingru was pregnant. As long as it benefited her family, that was enough. You know, sometimes it's good to be a little oblivious.
Upon hearing the sound, Qin Huairu couldn't help but get up and put on her clothes.
"Mom, where are you going?"
"You go to sleep, I'll go ask Uncle San what happened."
"I'm going too!" Banggeng exclaimed. He really couldn't sleep and wasn't feeling well.
Before she could even get up, Jia Zhangshi stopped her, saying, "Where are you going? Your aunt and uncle don't like you. If you go, you'll just get the cold shoulder."
“It’s just…” Xiao Dang said softly.
"Tch, I don't even need them to like it!" Bang Geng scoffed when he heard this, but stopped making a fuss.
At this age, when people care most about their reputation, if Wang Shouren doesn't give Bang Geng face, Bang Geng won't fawn over him.
When Qin Huairu came out, she saw Wang Shouren bringing Qin Jingru in, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
