Chapter 61: Burnt Wutong Road No. 28 DkyZ (jhssd)
Qin Qing leaned in Fang Zhiwei's arms, his breath surrounded her, and her emotions slowly calmed down.
When she came to her senses, she realized that they were very close to each other. She blushed instantly and pushed Fang Zhiwei away.
“No…no next time!”
"I promise!"
Fang Zhiwei made a serious promise to Qin Qing, but Qin Qing glared at him and said, "Let's go to Wutong Road!"
Qin Qing got on the bike again. This time, Fang Zhiwei pedaled the bike carefully, not daring to be careless at all.
"Is this Wutong Road?"
Qin Qing looked at the street in front of her. It would be better to call it Wutong Sky Road than Wutong Road. In front of her was a staircase that went straight up. On both sides were bungalows. This street was surprisingly full of shops selling food.
As expected of a provincial capital, doing business in a county town is still evasive, but vendors in the city have even opened shops.
Shancheng noodles, spicy hot pot, grilled fish, cold pot skewers, the charming aroma hit her face. Looking at the tender slices of meat being tossed in the boiling red oil, Qin Qing couldn't help swallowing her saliva.
"Is this number 28?"
Amidst the bustling commercial activity, the courtyard seemed out of place. Half the wall had collapsed, and the locked iron gate was pitch black, evidently burned by the raging fire. Fang Zhiwei could see the three rooms within the courtyard, their windows shattered and their furniture reduced to charcoal.
"How can anyone still be alive after it's burned like this?" Qin Qing frowned. Would her trip today be in vain?
"There's someone in the yard." Fang Zhiwei whispered in Qin Qing's ear. He could hear a slightly rapid breathing sound in the room.
“Will it be white rice?”
Fang Zhiwei shook his head, "I don't know either."
Qin Qing's eyes rolled, and she pulled Fang Zhiwei to the noodle shop opposite and sat down directly.
"Boss, two bowls of 3 taels of small noodles, medium spicy."
"Boss, one bowl of medium spicy food and one bowl of clear soup." Fang Zhiwei added.
"Okay! Two bowls of noodles!"
"What? You don't eat spicy food?" Qin Qing asked curiously, and chose a seat facing the courtyard of No. 28. Fang Zhiwei sat next to her.
"Your facial scars haven't healed yet, so you can't eat spicy food."
"ah?"
The boss was very fast and cooked the noodles in no time and served them. Fang Zhiwei naturally placed the clear soup noodles in front of Qin Qing and picked up another bowl for himself. The red oil and chili were so fresh and fragrant that he ate one or two in one bite.
Qin Qing glared at Fang Zhiwei unwillingly. He swallowed his noodles and said, "No room for negotiation."
In the end, Qin Qing could only silently pick up the clear soup noodles and start eating, while asking the boss.
"Boss, why is the house across from you so run down? It looks like it's been robbed."
"It's not robbery, it's smashing! That braggart from the Bai family cheated Brother Long out of his money and even caused his own old house to burn down! Tsk tsk tsk tsk, what a sin!" The boss sighed and shook his head, then left with a click of his tongue.
"Looks like today's trip wasted..."
Qin Qing sighed helplessly, but Fang Zhiwei's eyes lit up. He poked her shoulder and pointed forward.
She looked in the direction Fang Zhiwei pointed, and saw a boy wearing a black cotton coat, carrying a military green canvas bag, and wearing a military cap climbing out of the Bai family's courtyard wall. Qin Qing noticed at a glance that the canvas bag around his waist was bulging as if it was filled with things.
As soon as the boy in the military hat landed, he brushed the dust off his hands and looked up so that Qin Qing could see his appearance clearly.
With his phoenix eyes, straight nose and thin lips, he was quite pretty. However, there were two patches of high altitude redness and cracks on his cheeks due to the sun exposure, which did not seem to be caused by the weather in the mountain city.
Seeing Qin Qing staring at him, the boy didn't dodge, but actually winked at Qin Qing and whistled playfully.
"Beauty, are you having noodles? I'll treat you!"
The boy in the military hat pulled the canvas bag on his shoulder and was about to walk into the store when suddenly a loud shout rang out.
"White Rice! Stop right there, you bastard!"
"Catch him, chop off his hands, and bring him back to report to Brother Long!"
More than a dozen men armed with machetes rushed out from the left side of the alley. The leader, Scar, had a face full of flesh and a fierce look in his eyes. He led his men and rushed towards Bai Fan Mi.
"Beautiful lady, see you again!"
Bai Fanmi waved at Qin Qing and ran to the right at a very fast speed.
"This kid has pretty good kicking skills."
Fang Zhiwei rarely praised him, and in the blink of an eye, White Rice had run more than ten meters away.
"You stupid pigs, you still want to catch up with me?"
Bai Mifan ran while looking back in provocation, which made Scar so angry that he tightened his hand holding the machete again and again.
"White Rice, when I catch you, I will break your legs first."
"We'll talk about it after we catch him!"
Bai Mi Fan chuckled and when he looked up, he saw the police appear at the end of the alley.
"That's him! He dared to smuggle food coupons. Catch him!"
"What bad luck!"
Bai Mifan cursed softly, turned around and ran. After only two steps, he saw Scar holding a machete and more than ten people blocking the street tightly, leaving no gap at all.
"I'm done!"
Bai Mifan's mind went blank for a moment, and suddenly a big hand reached out from the candy shop nearby and pulled him in.
With his other hand, he ripped the canvas bag off Bai Mifan's shoulder. Bai Mifan immediately struggled to resist, but Fang Zhiwei stretched out his hand and knocked him unconscious against the wall, whispering a warning, "If you don't want to go to jail, don't work."
"Comrades, these hooligans are attacking people with knives in the street! Quick! Capture them and rid the people of this evil!"
Qin Qing stood at the door and shouted loudly. On one side were hooligans with machetes, and on the other side were police officers wearing flat caps.
In an instant, both sides froze and the atmosphere reached freezing point.
"Scar, are you in trouble again?"
The leading police officer, He Hong, roared, "They're committing violence in the streets. Do you really think we don't exist? Arrest them!"
"Hurry! Run!"
The group of thugs who had been so arrogant before were instantly scared and scattered, and several police officers chased after them.
He Hong glanced at Qin Qing standing at the door of the candy shop, waved his hands and walked into the shop. He smiled and looked at Bai Fanmi standing in the corner.
"White Rice, I've already told you that if you dare to sell food coupons privately, I'll arrest you sooner or later! Just follow me."
"Leave? Why leave? You said I sold food coupons. What evidence do you have?"
"Don't think I didn't know. I got the news as soon as you got off the train. You still have all the food coupons you brought back with you. Hand them all over!"
He Hong stretched out his hand and said threateningly.
"Food coupons? I don't have any on me. Search me if you don't believe me!"
"Lean against the wall, be quiet!"
"Ah, ah, ah, search it, but don't touch my breasts!"
He Hong dumped the white rice on the wall and searched up and down, but couldn't find a single food coupon.
"Where are the food coupons?"
"No, then no. You want to arrest me? Wait until you find evidence!"
Bai Mifan said this with a beaming expression, and He Hongya was terrified by his smug look.
"You better be careful and don't fall into my hands!"
He Hong turned and left, while Bai Fanmi ran to the door triumphantly, "Old He, you have to work harder. Try harder for another ten years, and maybe you can beat me!"
This guy... is really arrogant.
Qin Qing and Fang Zhiwei looked at each other. They had never seen such an arrogant and high-profile person.
"Hey! Brother, thanks for helping me. I can have my bag back now."
"Thank you, no thanks. We want to buy food coupons from you."
When Bai Mifan heard Qin Qing talking about buying food coupons, he immediately became alert. "Food coupons? What food coupons? There's no such thing!"
"Oh, really? Aunt Deng asked us to come look for you, but it seems we found the wrong person. Fang Zhiwei, let's go."
As soon as Qin Qing turned around, Fang Zhiwei was about to leave with his bag.
Seeing that the two were about to leave, Bai Fanmi quickly pulled Qin Qing, "Beauty."
Fang Zhiwei immediately reached out and slapped his hand away with great force. His hands were already tanned, and after being slapped by Fang Zhiwei, they turned red.
"Don't call her beauty, her name is Qin Qing."
"Hiss! It hurts! I get it, Boss Qin, Boss Qin! I have food coupons!"
Qin Qing stopped and took the bag from Fang Zhiwei's hand. "I wonder if you can give me a discount?"
