Qin Jingru tugged at Wang Shouren's hand.
Wang Shouren also noticed Qin Huairu and went up to greet her with a cheerful smile.
The two exchanged pleasantries, and no outsider could tell anything was amiss.
It was just a matter of concern between ordinary relatives. Besides, everyone had already gone to bed after all these days.
Late at night, everyone went home and took care of their own business.
The next day, Li Weiguo came looking for him early in the morning.
Upon seeing Wang Shouren, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was genuinely afraid that Li Huaide wouldn't respect him.
"I'm glad you're alright. Come out here for a moment, I have something to tell you," Li Weiguo said.
"Okay, please wait a moment." Wang Shouren went back inside, put on a coat, and followed Li Weiguo out. Outside, Li Weiguo's car was already parked, filled with bags and packages. Li Weiguo's wife and children were also inside.
When Wang Shouren saw this, he knew exactly what was going on.
"Shouren, don't blame me this time, and don't blame the higher-ups either. We're leaving now."
"Is it really that complicated?" Wang Shouren frowned, indicating his confusion, though he knew perfectly well what was going on.
"Yes, it's troublesome, but I believe the darkness will recede. Before I leave, my superiors asked me to give you some instructions." Li Weiguo took out a notebook from his pocket and handed it to Wang Shouren.
Wang Shouren was somewhat puzzled.
Li Weiguo said, "This was originally the factory that the higher-ups wanted you to go to increase production; it was all on the list."
Wang Shouren's lips twitched slightly: "You want me to do all of this?"
“No, if someone comes looking for someone, and that person is on this list, then you go with them. If no one comes looking for you, then you stay here. When you come back, the follow-up work will be arranged,” Li Weiguo said.
Wang Shouren understood; letting others do it themselves meant whether their minds were truly on production.
He estimated that if even one-tenth of the names on this list came, it would be quite remarkable.
"I understand," he replied.
Li Weiguo took a deep breath and extended his hand.
Wang Shouren was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening and extended his hand, clasping it tightly with his own.
Li Weiguo said, "Take care."
Then, without looking back, he got into the car and drove away from the yard.
At this moment, Liu Haizhong also came out of the courtyard. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Wang Shouren, and then he flew into a rage: "Wang Shouren! Who let you out! Well! You still have the guts to escape from prison!"
Wang Shouren gave him a cold glance: "Liu Haizhong, after doing a few beastly things, you don't even consider yourself a human being anymore? Very well, go and have a good look at the factory."
After saying that, he ignored Liu Haizhong and went straight into the courtyard.
Liu Haizhong said this wouldn't do. If Wang Shouren went back, where would he put his face? He reached out and tried to grab Wang Shouren's arm.
Unexpectedly, Wang Shouren launched a counterattack in an instant, lightly patting his arm twice. A sharp pain shot through him, causing him to scream in agony.
"Ah!! You! You! Openly attacked... attacked..." He couldn't say what he attacked for a long time. He couldn't very well say that he, the squad leader, was attacked, as that would seem a bit out of place.
The pain had a strong aftereffect; he had barely uttered a sound when his entire body was overwhelmed by it. By the time he came to his senses, Wang Shouren was already gone, and the pain gradually subsided. He stood up, took a step, intending to confront Wang Shouren. He hesitated for a moment, then paused. Gritting his teeth, he skipped breakfast and headed straight for the factory.
He wanted to find someone to get revenge, and he also wanted to know who would dare to release Wang Shouren without going through him!
Unbeknownst to him, Xu Damao led his team directly into his house as soon as he stepped out, startling his second aunt.
The Second Aunt was completely different from the Second Aunt a year ago. Now she was thin and bony, looking utterly listless. With no one left to beat her, only the Second Aunt remained, so Liu Haizhong could only beat his wife. In that year, the Second Aunt suffered more beatings than she had in her entire life.
These days, Aunt Er doesn't go out and brag to people anymore. She stays at home every day, anxiously waiting for Liu Haizhong to come back, afraid that she might do something wrong and get another beating.
Upon seeing Xu Damao enter with a group of people, she was so frightened that she shrank to the side.
"What...what do you want to do?"
"What do you want to do? Do you think we really don't know what Liu Haizhong has been up to these past few days? Second Aunt, if you know where he hid the stolen goods, point it out to us, and we might give you some face. Otherwise, this matter won't be so easy to resolve!" Xu Damao said in a shrill voice. In recent years, his life hadn't been very pleasant, and he had become increasingly perverted.
Auntie Er paused for a moment, then asked in a trembling voice, "If... if he really hands it over, what... what will happen to him?"
"Do you think you can bargain now? This is anti-government!" a young officer next to him said angrily.
"Hey, hey, buddy, buddy, I'm from this compound, I know it well, I'll talk to her." Xu Damao cheerfully stopped the crowd behind him who was about to cause trouble.
He led his second aunt into the inner room and said, "Second aunt, I know your family's situation very well. After this incident, Old Liu won't be out for several years. Think it over. When the time comes, this family will be under your control. You'd better think it through."
Xu Damao is Xu Damao after all; he naturally knows what kind of life his second aunt has been going through all these years, and he directly addresses the root cause.
"Then... could you leave some for me?" the second aunt said softly, a hint of resentment flashing in her eyes.
Xu Damao was speechless. If you want to stay, then stay, but you can't say it out loud!
Fortunately, no one was listening. He whispered, "Just bring out what he's hiding. Just the things he's ashamed of."
"Alright, come with me!" Auntie Er gritted her teeth.
He went into the bedroom, moved the bed, and under it, there was a small clod of earth that looked very fresh, clearly just dug up. Xu Damao, without waiting for his aunt to do anything, grabbed it and opened it, only to be dumbfounded.
Good heavens, there are dozens of yellow croakers of various sizes, as well as many jade artifacts that look quite valuable.
That hairstyle with bangs is really daring!
They came with a splash and went with a whoosh.
Liu Haizhong had just arrived at the factory and was about to go in to find someone when he was detained by the security department.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing! Do you know who I am? I'm from the Revolutionary Committee! What right do you have to detain me! You're opposing XX! I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
