Next, the brothers talked one after another and recounted the process of leaving Lujiu City and sneaking into Chinatown and the development to the present.
You Tianfu looked at Lu Chuan, whose mood had calmed down and his state was sluggish, and said in a deep voice: "No one is not sad that the Second Master is gone. We were depressed for a long time before gradually accepting this reality. The dead are gone, but the living are still here. Although the Second Master is gone, the Qin family's affairs cannot come to an end like this!
Second Master refuses to admit defeat, and neither do we. We lost to Li Junmin back then, but now I’m making a comeback with a group of brothers. For Master Qin, for Second Master, for Yu’er, and for all the brothers who have contributed to the Daqin Group, we must defeat Wenshan Trading no matter what, and let Wu Wenshang have a taste of what it’s like to have his life’s work completely destroyed!
Brother Dao, Master, come with me, this team still needs you!"
He spoke passionately, but Lu Chuan's eyes were completely devoid of fighting spirit. He waved his hand slightly and replied in a deep voice, "I can't leave. You can see my current situation. I cough when I do some work, I cough when I walk a few steps, and sometimes I even cough when I breathe. I am like a useless person, struggling to survive day by day.
Perhaps you can still regain that glory, but my glory has long become a thing of the past..."
After saying that, he looked up at Hu Jicheng and said, "Hu Zi, go with them. Xiaotian is your apprentice. He has become so awesome now. You, as their master, should be so proud of him!"
Hu Jicheng snorted and chuckled, then shook his head slightly. "Brother Dao, stop teasing me. Xiaotian's success is purely due to his own efforts. It has nothing to do with a half-baked master like me. The Second Master is gone, Ma Liu and Wang Ning have also left. It's just the two of us left, so why bother?
To be honest, Xiaoyue is a nice person. I like her. If I have the chance, I would like to pursue her..."
Dalong grinned again after hearing this: "I told you, you two are always together no matter what, and the way you look at each other is full of affection. Li Xiaoyue didn't deny it, but you were the only one who kept your composure and refused to admit it. Why did you say what was in your heart today? It's just that Li Xiaoyue wasn't here, what a pity... what a pity..."
Before he could finish his words, the half-open door suddenly opened, and it was obvious that there was someone outside!
Everyone thought that Li Changde had come back to cause trouble again. Hao Zhengguang, who was closest to the door, reacted immediately and ran out in a flash. When he passed the kitchen, he picked up a kitchen knife in his hand!
Lin Lidong followed closely behind. He was carrying a knife. After catching up with Hao Zhengguang, the two of them arrived at the door almost at the same time. They grabbed the door on the left and right and suddenly opened it. They looked at the figure outside and were about to subdue him, but as the light from the house shone over, Li Xiaoyue's appearance was revealed.
Li Xiaoyue was wearing an outer coat and was frightened by the ferocious appearance of the two men. She took a few steps back and looked up at Hu Jichong in the room. Her cheeks turned red instantly, obviously having heard the conversation between them.
Hu Jicheng also looked embarrassed, his eyes darting back and forth, this usually calm and steady man suddenly became confused...
After a few seconds of silence, Hao Zhengguang broke the deadlock and threw the kitchen knife back onto the chopping board. "Why are you here? Did you go back and come back, or did you never leave at all?"
Li Xiaoyue lowered her head slightly and stammered, "I went back... I heard Brother Lu coughing just now, and I was worried, so I came to check on him..."
Dalong interrupted with a playful smile: "Sister Xiaoyue, are you worried about Brother Dao, or do you want to see Brother Hu? He just confessed his love to you, did you hear it? Ouch..."
Before he could finish his words, Hu Jicheng grabbed his shoulder and squeezed it hard with his five fingers. He immediately shut his mouth in pain.
Li Xiaoyue's face was filled with shyness, but a smile that could not be concealed hung on the corner of her mouth. Without saying a word, she turned around and trotted back to the next door...
They hadn't seen each other for a few years, and had experienced countless things, big and small, during this period. The brothers had so much to say and so many things to talk about between Lu Chuan and Hu Jichong. They chatted all night long, recounting one experience after another. When they felt tired, they looked up and saw that it was already dawn outside!
Originally, You Tianfu wanted to take them back to a different place and environment. Even if they couldn't continue their journey with their brothers, they could at least rest and recuperate. However, Lu Chuan had grown accustomed to the environment of Lijia Village and felt that the air there was much fresher than in the city. So he made it clear that he didn't want to cause trouble for these little guys.
Hu Jicheng naturally wanted to continue accompanying Lu Chuan, but he also patted You Tianfu's shoulder and promised, "Now it's your stage. Second Master believes in you, and so do Brother Dao and I. Although we no longer have the ability to create more value, if one day it is really necessary, just listen to your words, and we two brothers are willing to go through fire and water for this great cause!"
You Tianfu understood what he meant and nodded seriously, "Don't worry, Master. I won't let you down. If you need anything, just contact me. I'll bring Aunt Hong and Yu'er to visit you later!"
After saying that, he was about to get up and go back. Just as he stood up from the kang, a shrill siren broke the tranquility of the early morning.
When a few people came outside the yard to check, they saw a police car parked at the gate of the yard. Five people got out of the car, including Li Changde and four policemen!
After seeing this scene, everyone understood that Li Changde must have relied on his relationship with Li Anmin to call the police and let the police "support him".
With the police by his side, Li Changde's aura changed drastically compared to last night. He walked with his head held high, his chin almost raised to the sky, looking completely arrogant. He didn't even use his hands, but kicked the door open and walked in.
Standing face to face, You Tianfu looked at one of the tall and thin policemen and suddenly felt that he looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was the policeman he met when he took people to Huang Zhenxing Company yesterday!
The policeman seemed to recognize You Tianfu as well, but he also didn't show it. Instead, he stood aside and watched silently.
Beside him, a policeman with a round beer belly, about the same size as Li Changde, spoke first. He spoke as if reciting a line from a script, very smoothly and coherently: "I'm a police officer from the Old City Police Station in Lujiu City. Which of you is Hu Jicheng?"
Hu Jicheng took a step forward: "I am!"
"You are suspected of intentional injury. You are now summoned according to the law and taken to the police station for investigation!" As he said this, the policeman showed his handcuffs and came up to arrest people.
Li Changde watched with gloating eyes from the side. Hu Jicheng was also used to this scene and let them deal with it. It was obvious that this situation was not the first time it happened.
Just as the handcuffs were about to be put on my wrists, You Tianfu's voice suddenly rang out beside me: "Wait!"
