Chapter 117 Overheard
Jun Lan stood up and said, "It's about time. I have to go teach that villain a lesson first, and then go back to take care of the children. I'll let you know when there's any news on what you asked me to do."
Nangong: "Let's go."
Junlan went to room 610 and waited for a while, and the greasy middle-aged owner finally appeared in front of her again.
The shop owner said, "Sister, aunt, and grandpa, I just bought you a low-quality bug and cheated you out of a thousand dollars. Do you really need to order me to rape and kill you? Now I will pay you back the two thousand dollars with interest. Then, can we settle our grudge now?"
Jun Lan: "Humph, I just made up a story about being a failed cuckold wife who wanted to buy a bug to get evidence so I could get a divorce and pay more. You believe such clichés. Do you really think I'm just an ordinary housewife who's easy to bully?"
The shop owner said: "I was blind and misjudged my aunt. Please forgive my fault and let the one-armed dragon let me go! From now on, I will be a good person and run my business with integrity. I will never dare to steal or cheat again."
Jun Lan: "You're smart. I'll accept the money and your apology. Are you still selling that thing now?"
Shopkeeper: "Sell it, why are you still buying it? Your husband is really cheating on you this time."
Jun Lan: "Fuck you, you stupid bastard! Spit on me and say it again."
Shopkeeper: "Pooh, pooh, pooh, pooh, it's my fault. If you really want that thing, I'll give it to you to try for a few days. If it doesn't work, I won't charge you."
Jun Lan: "You're pretty quick-witted. Send it to me tomorrow, okay?"
Shop owner: "I know, I know. I'll prepare it for you now."
The next morning, there was another set of instruments on Junlan's table.
She came to Nangong and said, "Who do you want to steal this time?"
Nangong: "It's the safe of Bai Fugui on the 30th floor. Do you have any new ideas?"
Jun Lan: "Confucius said, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.' Today I got a set of monitoring devices, and I think it's necessary for us to understand the enemy's situation before taking any action."
Nangong: "That's my grandson. Your idea is very good. I approve of you doing it."
After a while, Junlan and Li Yu went up to the 30th floor again.
The female staff came to greet them from a distance at the door.
Female employee: "You're finally here. No one has come to clean up these past few days. The countertops here are almost covered in mold."
Li Yu: "The police sealed off this place for a few days, so how could we dare to come here? Now that the lockdown has just been lifted, shouldn't we rush over?"
Female employee: "I know, I know. Thank you for your hard work today. You are all so dirty."
Jun Lan: "I heard that your boss had an accident a few days ago. How are you doing now?"
Female employee: "What else can I do? It's just a job wherever I go. Now the former boss's son has taken over. He won't fire me, and my salary and benefits will remain the same. I think it's better to do what you know, so I'm staying here."
Li Yu: "Do you want to stay in there..." She pointed at Bai Fugui's former office and asked.
Female employee: "Don't ask anymore, just go in and do it. I never knew what the boss was thinking before. He locked himself in there all day, acting so mysteriously. I had no idea what he was doing."
When Junlan opened the door and went in, she found that no one was inside. The new boss must not have come to work yet! She quickly put the monitoring device on the table while wiping it.
After Junlan and Li Yu left, Junlan hurried to the sixth floor.
Li Yu: "Why are you so anxious? You haven't come back to chat with us for a thousand years, but you are busy doing this and that. Is there anything wrong with Zhong Wuyan or Xia Yingchun?"
Jun Lan: "I'm really busy. Taking care of the kids every day is enough to keep me on edge. Recently, my uncle also asked me to do something, and I haven't replied to him yet!"
Li Yu: "Other people who marry into wealthy families live the leisurely life of a young lady, but why are you even busier than when you were working?"
Jun Lan: "Foreman, you don't know that working under you is busy but with some breaks, but working under Situ is a never-ending grind! In short, life is miserable, the kind of misery that a dumb person feels when eating coptis root, it's hard to put into words!"
Li Yu: "Oh, that's enough, stop complaining here. If you really have something to do, go ahead and do it. I won't stop you. But you must come to the cafeteria to find me and Dali during lunch. We have something to tell you."
Jun Lan: "I understand."
After reaching the sixth floor, Jun Lan took her headphones and went to Nangong's office.
She placed the earphones next to Nangong's ears and let him listen.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh" the man's low panting and the woman's moans came one after another continuously and reached Nangong's ears.
He glanced at Jun Lan beside him and looked very helpless. Jun Lan smiled and asked, "Did you hear anything?"
Nangong ignored her and continued listening. Who knew that the following conversation would be even more unbearable to hear. The author could only harmonize all the words "wet" and "hard" for you.
After a while they finally seemed to be done.
Woman: "Little boss, you are so mean! The big boss just left, and you are so eager to take over his business."
Man: "I finally waited for that old devil to die before I could take power. Of course I want to take everything he has. Of course I can't let a beauty like you go."
The woman suddenly gasped.
Man: "Do you still have the key to the safe that old ghost left for you?"
Woman: "Yes, I carry it with me!"
Man: “Give it back to me later!”
Woman: "It's no use keeping it. You don't even know the combination. We can't open the safe. Even if there's a lot of gold, silver, and treasure inside, we can only watch and worry."
Man: "Let's talk about these things later. Let's just have some fun first."
"Beep beep beep beep" Those unbearable bedtime talks were unbearable even for the battle-hardened Nangong, so he took off his headphones.
Curious Junlan thought she had found a bargain and quickly reached out to grab the headphones to listen. Nangong pushed her away with one hand.
Nangong: "Go away, get out of here! Don't you know that eavesdropping on other people's privacy is a perverted behavior?"
Jun Lan: "Then why were you listening with such gusto just now? I saw that you looked quite intoxicated just now!"
Nangong: "A good man doesn't fight with a woman. Is there any news about the old Zhantou I asked you to help me find last time?"
Jun Lan: "He said he knew why you were looking for him, but he wanted to meet you in person before deciding whether to help you this time."
Nangong: "Okay, he can decide the time and place, and just tell me when it's arranged."
Jun Lan: "Okay, that's fine. I want to leave first. I've also made plans with some of my former colleagues."
Nangong: "Please disappear from my sight immediately, right now, thank you."
Jun Lan rolled her eyes at him and went to the cafeteria alone.
It was not yet time for dinner, and there were not many people around. She came to the table where the four of them used to sit, and looking at the empty corner where one person was missing, she couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.
"I don't know how Mingli is doing now." She said to herself.
"Lin Junlan... I'm here to find you..." Niu Dali appeared behind her with a sarcastic look on his face at some point.
