Chapter 68 Gamblers have no bones
"Brother Lei, you, you, you... didn't you go to ask for money? Why did you bring him back?"
When Zheng Aqiang saw Chen Wenjun, he was like seeing a ghost. His mind was racing, thinking about how to cover up the lie.
Before Gao Lei could even open his mouth, he kicked Zheng Aqiang hard and lifted him up. "Debt? IOU? Zheng Aqiang, let me tell you, I hate being cheated the most in my life. Anyone who cheats me will never have a good ending! How are you going to prove that what you said is true?"
Zheng Aqiang was so scared that he peed his pants, and the urine flowed down his trouser legs.
Gao Lei's face changed and he threw Zheng Aqiang to the ground like throwing away garbage.
My younger brother brought him a stool.
As soon as Gao Lei sat there, Zheng Aqiang was almost scared out of his wits. He looked at Chen Wenjun pleadingly, "Wenjun, please tell me, you owe me money, right? I didn't want to ask you for it, but Brother Lei was in a hurry, so I had to give him the IOU. Please help me, just once, for the last time!"
Chen Wenjun laughed angrily, "Zheng Aqiang, you just want to snatch a thousand yuan from me with your mouth, do you think I'm stupid? I've already told Brother Lei whether the IOU is real or fake. Even if it goes to the police station, I'm not afraid."
Zheng Aqiang was stunned, his eyes suddenly became fierce, "We have been brothers for so many years, and I only beg you this time, but you are not willing to help me! You are not a human being!"
"I'm not a human?" Chen Wenjun sneered and looked at him coldly, "You also know that over the years we've been brothers, you must have begged me countless times! I helped you before because of our past friendship, and Ping An also pleaded for you.
I never expected that you would threaten my son. You forced him to plead for you. Zheng Aqiang, I don't want a brother like you. Let's not have any contact in the future."
"You" Zheng Aqiang continued to shout.
Gao Lei kicked over the table in anger.
Zheng Aqiang shuddered and panicked instantly. He knelt down to Chen Wenjun spinelessly and said, "I really have no other choice. If I don't give them the money, they will beat me to death. You will definitely not stand by and watch me die, right? Help me once, for the last time, and I will never ask you for money again."
Chen Wenjun shook his head firmly. "You have never paid back the money you borrowed. Not to mention that I have no money now, even if I had money, I would not lend it to someone who threatens my son. You are on your own."
As he said this, he looked at Gao Lei and said, "Brother Lei, I have made it clear. Zheng Aqiang's matter has nothing to do with me. But I want to make one thing clear. He is a vicious and cold-blooded person. In order to get money from me, he attacked me from behind, knocked me unconscious in the alley, and robbed me of all the money I had.
Recently, he even stole onto my boat, more than once. Fortunately, I installed a trap on the boat. His eyes were injured by my trap. This kind of person deserves to die."
The more Chen Wenjun cursed, the angrier he became, as if he wanted to vent all the anger from two lifetimes.
Gao Lei was originally furious because he was tricked by Zheng Aqiang, but when he heard about what happened to Chen Wenjun, he suddenly felt sympathy for him.
He glanced back at Chen Wenjun with a frown on his face, "Why would you be brothers with a jerk like him? Are you blind?"
Chen Wenjun slowly lowered his eyes, feeling a little depressed. "We grew up together, and I never thought he would become like this, let alone treat me like this!"
Although there was an element of drama in it, what he said was true.
The person he had played best with since childhood was Zheng Aqiang. After today, he and Zheng Aqiang would have a complete break, and there would be no room for recovery.
Gao Lei waved his hand and said impatiently: "There is nothing for you to do here, let's go!"
After expressing his gratitude, Chen Wenjun turned away resolutely.
Zheng Aqiang didn't expect Chen Wenjun to be so cruel. He said he would ignore him and he was so angry that he started cursing.
Gao Lei kicked Zheng Aqiang viciously to vent his dissatisfaction, "Fuck you, you dare to play tricks on us! You even hurt Chen Wenjun by mistake, wait and see how I deal with you!"
They are gangsters, not real gangsters. Today they hurt innocent people and broke their rules. What if other gangs find out and spread the news? How can the brothers survive in the underworld?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, and Gao Lei even hit Zheng Aqiang with a stick himself.
Even after Chen Wenjun walked far away, he could still hear Zheng Aqiang's shrill screams.
When the wind blew, he got goosebumps and hurried home.
His heart was still pounding even when he got on the fishing boat.
He rowed the boat to Nanyu in one breath and saw Lin Qin standing at the door shining a flashlight at him.
He quickly stopped the boat and got off quickly.
"Why is it so late?" Lin Qin was extremely worried, and she became even more nervous when she saw Chen Wenjun's forehead covered in sweat.
Chen Wenjun pulled her into the door, bolted it shut in a few seconds, let out a long sigh, and briefly told her what had happened today.
"I have cut off all ties with Zheng Aqiang. He owed 500 yuan this time, which is not a small amount. Gao Lei didn't get the money and was fooled. He will definitely not let Zheng Aqiang go. He is finished!"
Lin Qin gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, cursing Zheng Aqiang, "Serves him right! In my opinion, Gao Lei should kill that evildoer."
Chen Wenjun shook his head. "It's unlikely. I think Gao Lei is violent, but he doesn't seem unreasonable. He won't kill people randomly. Let's not talk about it. Use the medicinal wine to wipe my back. It hurts a little."
That stick hit him hard on the back, and there will definitely be a big bruise on it tomorrow.
Lin Qin's heart tightened and she quickly increased her speed, almost spraining her ankle accidentally.
Fortunately, Chen Wenjun was quick to grab her and said, "I'll get some red soil to clean up this road in the next two days. It must be flattened and compacted."
What they have the most here is red soil, but there is none on the island.
"Let's not talk about this for now, go back and check your injuries."
The two men went up the steps and into the yard.
The concrete slab of the house was just poured today, and they are making do with a tent in the yard.
Lin Qin brought hot water to Chen Wenjun so that he could take a good bath.
Rub medicated wine on him under the kerosene lamp.
The strong smell attracted Lin Yi over, "Where are you hurt?"
The couple did not hide it from him and told him about Zheng Aqiang's affairs. Lin Yi was so angry that he kept cursing Zheng Aqiang for a bad death.
Early the next morning.
The first thing Lin Qin did when she got up was to check Chen Wenjun's back. Seeing that there were only some marks and no major problems, she felt relieved.
The two of them were doing their own things and no one took the initiative to ask about Zheng Aqiang.
During these three days, Chen Wenjun cleared the road from Nanyu Gap to his own yard, and the two children ran and jumped back and forth on this dirt road.
Although Chen Ping'an's hands and feet were not flexible, he dared to run and jump along.
Lin Qin saw this and was pleasantly surprised. She whispered to Chen Wenjun, "Look, Ping An will definitely make great progress if he exercises like this every day."
She didn't dare to hope that Chen Ping'an would return to normal, she only hoped that Chen Ping'an would be able to take care of himself in the future and support himself even if they were gone.
