As soon as Li Chu said this, several pairs of eyes in the courtyard stared intently at him.
"You mean that Legend of the Condor Heroes that the TV station aired last year?" Ding Qiunan raised her voice.
"Yeah, what else? Last year you were complaining that you could never watch the whole thing, so I made him buy all the videotapes. Oh, and there was that TV series called something like 'The Waves Flow,' but I don't know anything else."
"Ah! Mr. Chu, you bought Xu Wenqiang too?"
"I can't buy Xu Wenqiang, but I do have videotapes. If you want to watch them, I'll go in and connect the VCR for you."
Well, this is really bad. They don't even have time to eat lunch. Even Shen Yi is watching with great interest.
However, the Hong Kong version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes is indeed a classic.
The family next door also came over, turning the living room into a video rental store.
Fortunately, everyone was quite self-controlled and stopped after watching two tapes.
Ding Qiunan called Lou Xiao'e, and then took her daughter and daughter-in-law, along with their child, out shopping.
Shen Yi also ran out to find his friends, and the once lively house was suddenly left with only Li Chu and a few dogs staring at each other.
Just as he was wondering what to do, Sun Jianjun came over.
"Brother Chu, the matter has been investigated and clarified. It was the pharmaceutical factory in Shanghai that you told me about. The person responsible has been brought back."
"It really is him? I was just saying. They were the ones who made that prescription for me a few years ago, and it's them again this time. They really are like dogs that can't change their nature." Li Chu said with a sneer.
"How's it going? Feeling a lot of pressure?"
Sun Jianjun shook his head with a wry smile: "Don't even mention it. When we were still on the way, Director Li's phone was ringing off the hook. But before I came here, Director Li asked me to pass on a message to you. He told you not to worry and that your family won't let you down in this matter."
Li Chu frowned and thought for a while: "How about this, when you go back, tell Director Li that I'll find someone to help you share some of the pressure. Last time, I had this guy find someone to take the fall, and this time I want to see if he can find someone else."
"Help us share the burden? Who are you going to ask?"
"You know Wang Jun, right? He's my in-law."
“Of course I know Brother Junzi, he’s not in the Second Bureau now…” Sun Jianjun stopped mid-sentence.
He looked Li Chu up and down carefully, as if he didn't recognize him.
"I didn't realize, Brother Chu, you're ruthless." He then raised his hand and gave a thumbs up.
Then, he asked hesitantly, "But are you sure this won't cause trouble for you and Brother Junzi?"
"It's alright. Since we've already torn off all pretenses, if I were to hesitate any longer, I might as well grab a shovel, dig a hole in my backyard, and bury myself in it," Li Chu said calmly, shaking his head.
"I will contact Wang Jun tomorrow morning and have him come to you. Then you can hand the person over to him according to the procedures."
"Don't worry about that. Even without Brother Junzi, we will find a way to withstand the pressure."
Besides, this guy got away with that prescription thing last time, right? During this search of his house, we unexpectedly found some documents—we found them right there in his house! If he still says he doesn't know anything about it, who's going to believe him?
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not." Li Chu picked up the teapot and refilled Sun Jianjun's teacup with water.
"You don't actually think that once this person goes to Wang Jun's place, he can get out, do you?"
Holy crap!
Sun Jianjun finally understood the guy's plan. He had thought it was just a matter of changing departments to handle the case, but it turned out that the guy had never thought of it that way at all.
Seeing him staring blankly at him, Li Chu smiled and said, "What's wrong? Don't you recognize me?"
"You know what, I do need to get to know you again."
"I was forced into this by them. I've always considered myself just a doctor, and I just want to do my job honestly and conscientiously."
Unexpectedly, the fire at the city gate has affected the innocent bystanders. Since that's the case, I'll show them exactly how a fishbone pierces someone.
Sun Jianjun held his teacup in silence for a moment before nodding: "Well then, Brother Chu, the sooner the better. I'll go back now, and you can contact Brother Junzi right now."
"Okay, thanks for your hard work, bro."
Don't give me that crap, but I want to eat roast lamb and drink beer.
"No problem, I'll have someone bring back a sheep tomorrow. Let's see how much you can eat."
"Okay, I'll be going now."
After seeing Sun Jianjun off, Li Chu went into the living room, picked up the phone, and dialed a number.
The call was answered by one of Uncle Wang's staff members. He was right; Wang Jun was also resting at home today.
“Junzi, it is I, Li Chu.”
"I know, tell me what it is."
“I was framed before, but Jianjun has brought me back now, though I'm under a lot of pressure…”
Before he could finish speaking, Wang Jun interrupted, "Where is Jianjun with you now?"
"They just left; they went back to their workplace."
"Okay, I'll take some men over there now and get them to our side first."
You probably know about the prescription I had a few years ago.
"I know, so what?"
"It was this guy who did it, but last time he helped Jin Chan escape. And it was Uncle Wang who ultimately forbade any further investigation into that matter."
"Is the old man out of his mind or what?" Wang Jun muttered over the phone.
"You don't need to worry about it this time. I guarantee I'll make him confess how many times he wet the bed when he was a child."
"No, no, no, Junzi, you've got it wrong. I'm not interested in what he knows at all, and you'd better not be either. There's no need to interrogate him. Don't let anyone contact him. Once this matter is basically settled, let him..."
"Alright, I know what to do. You owe me a meal. Oh, by the way, did my son-in-law go out with the medical team today?"
"Yes, we saw them off this morning."
"Then let Yueyue come back and stay for a few days. The old man misses his child."
"I'll tell her when Yueyue comes back and send her back to stay for a few days."
"Okay, I'm hanging up now. I'll go back to the station now and go find Jianjun in a bit."
"good"
After hanging up the phone, Li Chu let out a soft breath, her face expressionless.
Around 5 p.m., the phone rang.
It was Wang Jun calling. Things were going very smoothly, and he was even shouting on the phone that he wanted to eat lamb skewers and drink beer too.
Ding Qiunan and the others said they wouldn't be back for dinner when they went out, and Li Chu was too lazy to cook for herself, so she went to her sister's house next door for a free meal.
I Have a Scroll of Ghost and Deity Illustrations
When he returned, the phone rang again.
This time it was Uncle Shen who called.
