Chapter 389: Being severely taught a lesson

Huang Hongyi's behavior of smashing the phone and complaining to his mother also made Huang Xinran angry.

They are siblings, why are they so estranged now?

Although she collected rent from him over the years, she would give her elder brother and sister-in-law generous gifts on their birthdays and other festivals every year.

Of course, she didn't need to do that. Of the four shops she bought from Liang Wei, the rent of the other two shops was not only more expensive than that of her eldest brother's shop, but the water and electricity bills were also higher than that of her eldest brother's shop, and the rent was paid every three months. It was completely different from her eldest brother's two-year payment, and the payment was often delayed for a year or so.

Not to mention, her elder brother never gave her a penny for helping her raise Scutellaria baicalensis.

You can increase your gratitude and fight for your grudges.

She gave so much but didn't get a single good word in return.

Huang Xinran is not a calculative person, but her elder brother's actions make her feel that everything she has given is not worth it.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she couldn't help but call Lu Yunchen to complain.

Lu Yunchen seemed very busy on the other end of the phone. Huang Xinran heard a burst of noise, but soon the noise faded away. Lu Yunchen's firm and calm voice rang out.

"Don't bother with him. If you're happy, answer his call. If you're unhappy to hear him talk, tell me and I'll help you deal with him later. How about it?"

"Well, that's not necessary..."

Huang Xinran was frightened again.

She couldn't help but think of her last life, when her elder brother was down and out and timid, and lived a dull and sad life in the poor mountain village of his hometown. After all, she had indirectly influenced him in her last life, and even out of a desire to compensate him, she couldn't do anything to her elder brother.

"So, what exactly do you want to do? Or, how do you plan to do it? Tell me, and I will cooperate with you." Lu Yunchen's low laughter came through the microphone.

Huang Xinran felt itchy and couldn't help blushing. She spat at him: "What do you care? Humph! ~"

She hung up the phone in a hurry, but even so, her cheeks couldn't help but turn red.

Lu Yunchen shook his head in amusement and put down the phone.

The smile on his face slowly disappeared.

Is it Huang Hongyi?

It seems that my brother-in-law has become bloated after having money in his hands!

His attitude towards his own sister has become so bad. Perhaps it's time for him to see himself for what he really is.

There was a ruthless look in his eyes, and then he made a phone call.

The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be forgiven.

Considering that the other party is his elder brother-in-law, a minor punishment and a major warning will suffice.

Huang Xinran didn't know what happened to Lu Yunchen. After she complained to him, she felt the depression in her heart dissipate and she was revived. She put the matter behind her and continued to fight for her career.

It was not until her mother called and complained to her that her eldest brother had an accident that she was startled and hurriedly asked what had happened.

"What else could it be? It was the kid's own fault. He knew that their area was Brother Pang's territory and he had paid protection fees in the past, but this time he was stubborn and wanted to go against Brother Pang's people. Now, he was beaten up and his face was badly injured... He was also severely scolded by Brother Pang's people..."

Huang Xinran intuitively felt that something was wrong.

In the late 1980s and before the 1990s, although there was state control, hooligans in many places took the opportunity to cause trouble in the shops and collect protection fees from the entire street, calling it filial piety.

In fact, this is not an isolated case.

This situation was once very serious, especially in relatively prosperous big cities. It was not until the late 1990s that the country made great efforts to rectify the situation and curbed the spread of this black power.

However, now is the time when these forces are becoming more rampant and are now making trouble in the open.

Huang Xinran was not surprised by this. What surprised her was that the man named Brother Pang could not have been unaware that all the shops on that street belonged to the Liang family and were within the Liang family's sphere of influence.

Brother Pang suddenly intervened for no apparent reason, which looked strange no matter how you looked at it.

She thought for a long time, then picked up the phone and called Liang Wei. After asking him indirectly, she finally confirmed her idea.

Big brother must have done something to annoy that brother Pang.

According to what Liang Wei knew, someone had bypassed his people and specifically instructed Brother Pang. And someone who knew the power of the Liang family and deliberately bypassed Brother Pang and instructed Brother Pang, and who could also call on Brother Pang, was definitely not an ordinary person.

Having said that, the scope is actually very small.

Liang Wei said a few words with deep meaning, then hung up the phone.

Huang Xinran also understood the other party's hidden meaning, but she just couldn't believe it in her heart.

Considering all the factors, there is only one person who would do this!

But, didn’t she already tell Lu Yunchen that there was no need for him to intervene?

She wanted to question Lu Yunchen, but she didn't know how to start. Just when she was in a dilemma, Lu Yunchen came over.

Huang Xinran only learned about Lu Yunchen's retirement not long ago.

For this, she was still arguing with Lu Yunchen. The reason was naturally that Lu Yunchen made the decision on his own without even consulting her on such a big matter, so she was naturally angry.

So she stayed in the courtyard house in the capital out of spite and didn't contact him for several days.

However, Lu Yunchen came over accurately, of course, to coax his wife.

Huang Xinran was busy handling official business when someone knocked on the courtyard door. But the knocking on the courtyard door kept on, and she couldn't bear it anymore, so she got up and rushed out to open the courtyard door. When she saw that the person outside the door was Lu Yunchen, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, and soon, the surprise turned into anger.

"Knock, knock, are you annoyed? Don't you know I'm busy?! I'm so annoyed!"

She left him and went into the house.

Lu Yunchen touched his nose, not intending to offend her, and went into the yard and closed the door. Then he followed Huang Xinran into the house.

Seeing her busying herself, her furrowed brows revealed her bad mood.

Lu Yunchen walked over, took a quick look, and pointed out one of the items with a problem: "Here, there's a problem here."

Huang Xinran was stunned, looked at him, puffed up his cheeks and couldn't help but calculate it again. There was indeed a problem with this one, and his mood immediately became worse.

However, she still picked out the problematic list, approved it, and then started her work.

"What are you doing here? Are you here to apologize?"

"What are you apologizing for?"

"Don't tell me that what happens with my eldest brother has nothing to do with you." Huang Xinran rolled his eyes at him.

In this case, Huang Xinran actually had no evidence to prove that Lu Yunchen did it. If he insisted that it was not him, she could not produce any substantive evidence. She asked this question now, mainly to test the other party's self-awareness.
