Mu Jingheng glanced at Lu Zheng and asked, "What did he do to you?"
Lu Zheng: "They didn't do anything to us, shouldn't these big capitalists be taught a lesson?"
Mu Jingheng: "What does he do now?"
Lu Zheng: "He's a street sweeper; this whole area is his job."
Mu Jingheng: "So, is it because he didn't do his job well?"
Lu Zheng: "It's alright. If he can't even do this little job well, I'll make him lick it clean with his mouth."
Mu Jingheng: "Do you believe in karma and reincarnation?"
Lu Zheng's face suddenly darkened: "Comrade, watch your thoughts."
Mu Jingheng laughed shamelessly, "What are you nervous about? How many years of schooling have you had?"
Lu Zheng stared at Mu Jingheng seriously without saying a word.
Mu Jingheng continued, "Materialism also has the concept of cause and effect and reincarnation. You should study this knowledge properly."
Lu Zheng was taken aback. He doubted Mu Jingheng's words, but he had no evidence.
Seeing that Lu Zheng was confused, Mu Jingheng said again, "Leave him to me!"
Lu Zheng frowned, sensing that Mu Jingheng was here to reap the benefits. Xu Yao and the others had been watching him for a long time, and they felt that he must be hiding something good. They didn't believe that he would honestly hand over all his assets so readily.
The Xu family was very clever. Before the case was officially classified, they handed over all their assets to the state, which ensured the safety of the whole family. Before the neighborhood revolutionary committee could react, they responded to the call and sent the younger children to the countryside. Of course, they had also used their connections to get the place. Xu Yao also broke off his relationship with his wife, leaving him all alone in the end.
Because of his positive attitude, the authorities reserved a small courtyard for him.
The small courtyard is currently in a state of disrepair, riddled with potholes dug by the street revolutionary committee.
Lu Zheng suddenly turned fierce and asked, "Who exactly are you?"
Mu Jingheng also stood up straight, looking down at Lu Zheng, and his imposing manner immediately deflated Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng had a feeling that this pretty boy had killed someone before; the way he looked at him just now seemed like he was looking at an ant. Xu Zheng felt once again that Mu Jingheng was someone he couldn't afford to offend.
Mu Jingheng: "If you want to stay in your Revolutionary Committee, you'd better do as I say."
Although Mu Jingheng couldn't remember who Xu Yao was, his intuition told him that this person had to be protected.
Upon hearing Mu Jingheng's words, the others stepped forward menacingly, clearly intending to beat him up.
Lu Zheng looked away from Mu Jingheng and waved to the others.
"Then I'll give you face, young man."
Mu Jingheng: "Remember, you'd better not touch this person in the future, or I'll have someone thoroughly investigate you, and you should know the consequences."
Lu Zheng glanced at the person on the ground with a sinister look, then smiled and said to Mu Jingheng, "What's the matter? It's fate that I was able to chat with you for a while today. If you need anything in the future, come find me at the Street Revolutionary Committee, and I'll treat you to a drink."
Seeing that things were going well, Mu Jingheng replied, "Then it's settled."
Lu Zheng immediately said, "We've been chatting for so long and I still don't know your name, brother. I can't just keep calling you 'Hey hey hey' whenever we meet in the future."
Mu Jingheng smiled wickedly, knowing what this person was up to: "Mu Jingheng!"
Mu Jingheng?
Could it be someone from the Mu family? Lu Zheng was startled, and a chill ran down his spine.
The events of a while ago were known to everyone in Kyoto. Everyone said that those people were targeting the Mu family but were instead brought down by the Mu family. However, as members of the Revolutionary Committee, we all know that it was the higher-ups using the Mu family to rectify the chaos.
If he really was a member of the Mu family, Lu Zheng was glad that they hadn't broken off relations today.
Lu Zheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Mu, it's a deal then. Come find me at the Street Revolutionary Committee in the future, and I'll treat you to a drink."
Lu Zheng felt that if he could really get close to Mu Jingheng, then his future might be promising.
Mu Jingheng smiled and waved, without saying a word.
As Lu Zheng led his men away, someone asked him defiantly, "Brother, this pretty boy is all alone, why should we be afraid of him?"
Lu Zheng thought this guy was really brainless, so he kicked him hard and said, "You don't know anything. Watch your mouth. Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Otherwise, you won't even know how you died."
The man whose hand Mu Jingheng had pinched glanced back at Mu Jingheng. He had always thought Lu Zheng was capable, which was why he followed him to earn a living. But now, judging from Lu Zheng's attitude, it seemed that this pretty boy's background was not simple.
Watching the person walk away, Mu Jingheng squatted down and patted Xu Yao, asking, "How are you? Can you still stand up?"
Although Xu Yao was badly beaten by Lu Zheng and his gang, he was used to it. These people would cause him trouble every few days and ransacked his house like this. He knew why they were after him.
Perhaps it's out of habit, but Xu Yao now knows very well how to protect himself.
He had overheard Mu Jingheng and Lu Zheng's conversation. He knew Mu Jingheng meant well, and from Lu Zheng's last words, he realized that Mu Jingheng's identity might be extraordinary. If that were the case, he might really be saved.
Xu Yao slowly moved his legs. Fortunately, they weren't broken. He then moved the arm that had been protecting his head. It hurt a lot. He couldn't be sure if it had been broken. After checking other parts of his body, he was sure he was alright.
When Xu Yao turned to look at Mu Jingheng, Mu Jingheng's pupils contracted.
No wonder he found the name familiar; wasn't he the future richest man in the country?
As media became more and more developed in later generations, Mu Jingheng would often see this person on the economic channel, and even saw him once at a congress.
Although Mu Jingheng in his previous life wasn't in charge of economics, politics is often linked to economics, so he paid a lot of attention to this person.
Unexpectedly, this unintentional act saved a big name in the economy.
Mu Jingheng suddenly remembered the numerous small animals that filled Xu Xinning's space, and thought that perhaps he could consider giving them away.
To be honest, Mu Jingheng felt that he was quite poor right now. In a few years, the country would open up, and if he wanted to make a difference during that time, he would need plenty of funds.
Mu Jingheng took out the medicine that Xu Xinning had prepared for him from his pocket and handed it to Xu Yao, saying, "If you trust me, swallow this pill. It's the best medicine for treating sprains and bruises."
Without saying a word, Xu Yao took the medicine and put it in his mouth. He felt that since Mu Jingheng had saved him from those people, there was no need for him to harm him. His intuition told him that Mu Jingheng might be able to save the Xu family.
Xu Yao may not care about himself, but he has to think about his children.
After taking the medicine, Xu Yao felt as if his internal organs had been suddenly nourished, and his body pain seemed to have subsided.
He looked at Mu Jingheng in surprise.
Mu Jingheng knew that Xu Xinning's medicine was very effective, and he smiled when he saw Xu Yao's expression.
Mu Jingheng: "Move your arm and see if there's a fracture. If there is, I'll take you to the hospital."
Xu Yao obediently and slowly raised his arm. Strangely enough, he could now raise his arm, which he couldn't move just a moment ago. Although it still hurt, at least he could move it.
