Chapter 69
There is a reason why Wang Chuanzong can be so arrogant in this area.
The most important point is that he is particularly good at seizing opportunities.
In order to gain a foothold, he had tried his best to make friends with rich and powerful people. After all, the more prestigious a person is, the more he would protect his reputation. If there were some dirty and shameful things, he would inevitably pay someone to help him solve them, so as to avoid leaving any evidence behind.
Manager Wen is one of them.
However, no matter how foolish Manager Wen is, he would not directly look for someone like Wang Chuanzong who is not presentable. He is looking for a team of professional thugs who will never reveal any information about their employers after being paid to do the job. It can be said that they are the best choice for killing and robbing at home or traveling.
But now there is a problem. For some reason, the business of this team has been so good in recent years that when they are too busy during the peak season, they have to find some outsourced temporary workers. Of course, these temporary workers cannot be selected casually. They must have some professional skills and it would be better if their image is consistent with the character setting, which would be perfect.
Under such circumstances, Wang Chuanzong met Manager Wen by chance. They were not close friends. At that time, he was just the one standing behind the contract worker, waving the flag and cheering. He got little money but put in a lot of effort in the fight. Fortunately, the problem was solved smoothly that time and no fighting occurred.
Afterwards, in order to silence them, Manager Wen treated all of them to a meal. There was a lot of drinking and flattery at the table, which made Manager Wen look at Wang Chuanzong a few more times. So, he thought that he was half of Manager Wen's subordinates and often acted arrogantly in this shopping mall, not treating customers as human beings at all.
But today, he obviously hit a wall.
Because he watched helplessly as his backer rolled towards him like a bowling ball, shouting apologies as he rolled: "Boss Jiang, Boss Jiang, I'm sorry. It's my fault for letting you suffer here. Can you please forgive me one more time? I promise there won't be a next time."
Jiang Chengyi looked at the sweaty and apologetic manager as if he were looking at something dirty, and asked in an unhappy voice: "Is your apology of any use?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Not only will I apologize, I will correct my behavior immediately. I will have this unreasonable person who offended you thrown out immediately. I also ask you to be magnanimous and forgive me this time."
"No... Manager Wen, why are you throwing me out? I'm yours."
Wang Chuanzong refused to do it when he heard this. They were all friends in private, so would they just run away when disaster struck?
"Shut up!" Manager Wen was furious. Didn't he even use his brain when he spoke? He didn't even consider the time, yet he was still trying to get close to him. He couldn't even protect himself, and now he's brought along a idiot teammate. If he doesn't die today, his ancestors' graves will spontaneously combust.
The manager was winking at Wang Chuanzong, asking him to cooperate, which would be beneficial to everyone. But Wang Chuanzong, either because he was bullied by Jiang Chengyi and became stupid or because he was really stupid and didn't understand Manager Wen's good intentions, was jumping and shouting there, asking everyone to give an explanation. He also said that if Jiang Chengyi did not compensate him and his son today, they would sit in protest at the entrance of the mall.
This made Pei Muyang very happy. "So you two know each other? It's really fate. Since we are all acquaintances, I won't go into details. Let's call the police."
Call the police?
Wang Chuanzong got furious when he heard this, but calling the police was not an option because he had hung a picture of him near the police station. He would be scared when he saw the police, so how could he dare to call the police?
"No! You can't call the police!"
Wang Chuanzong refused firmly. He was puzzled. Why did they have to take the matter to the police when it could be solved by paying some compensation?
"There's no need to call the police. For Manager Wen's sake, give me... give me fifty thousand yuan, and today's incident will be over. I'll leave immediately and never bother you again. How about that?"
"Are you crazy?"
Manager Wen pulled Wang Chuanzong and stared at this strong man with wide eyes, whom he had thought was quite pleasing to the eye before. He didn't understand. The situation was so dire, but he still didn't know how to judge the situation?
Just a few dishes and he actually dared to extort money from Mr. Jiang. Is he really not afraid of death and is determined to drag him down with him, right?
Wang Chuanzong looked at Manager Wen, who was so angry that he couldn't speak, and thought to himself, this is...
Is it getting less?
Wang Chuanzong calmed down and thought about it. That's right. The person that Manager Wen values so much must be from a wealthy family. These rich people value face more than anything else. Instead of letting him make a big deal out of it and become a hot topic, affecting their family's business, it is better to give him some money to avoid disaster.
Yes, that's it!
So he made up his mind and quickly changed his words, "I was wrong, it was 100,000! If it's less than 100,000 yuan, we can't let this matter go like this today!"
"Oh!" Pei Muyang sneered, "Your brain, weighing over 200 pounds, isn't it possible that it's half filled with flour and half with water? Otherwise, how could it turn into a paste when you move? Please, I'm calling the police now, not negotiating your funeral expenses. How dare you ask for so much money?"
Wang Chuanzong thought about it. It seemed that the other party had never asked him about compensation. But, they beat people up and bullied children, so they should pay compensation, right? He had encountered this kind of situation before, and each time he hadn't honestly given him money and begged him to let it go. Why was it different this time?
Before he could figure it out, Jiang Chengyi had already picked up his phone and called the police, claiming on the phone that he had been attacked and blackmailed. He lied so openly that he didn't look like a domineering boss at all, but more like a swindler.
This time Wang Chuanzong was really panicked.
He couldn't go to the police station. Given his criminal record, he would definitely get into trouble if he went there.
"I won't bother with you guys. Today is just bad luck for me. I'll spare you. If I see you again next time, I will definitely beat you two beasts to death!"
After saying that, he pulled Wang Yaozu, who was still thundering, and tried to take the opportunity to slip away, but someone blocked his way and said, "Did I allow you to leave?"
In the police station, Captain Zhang, with an angry face, looked at Wang Chuanzong in front of him and scratched his head several times in anger.
"No... Wang Chuanzong, you're itching all over if you don't come to see me for a day, right?"
"No, no, Captain Zhang, it wasn't me who came here this time. It was them! They insisted on calling the police, and then your new comrade brought me here without saying a word. I'm truly innocent."
He really felt that he was innocent. If the person was an acquaintance, he would not have gone to the police station for joking. But the person who came was a green handcuffed him without saying a word and almost twisted his arm off.
"Innocent? With your criminal record, how can you be innocent? Tell me, what's your reason this time?"
"Captain Zhang, the complainant claims Wang Chuanzong violently attacked him and then extorted money from him. Oh, and his child also teamed up with him to commit fraud. When Liu Cheng and I were enforcing the law, he refused to cooperate and tried to escape. He even pushed Liu Cheng, causing him to sprain his ankle. So we brought him back with the complainant."
"Ha! You're so good, Wang Chuanzong. You're getting more and more bad at committing crimes, aren't you? In the past, they were just minor offenses. If you're found guilty this time, you can finally get a job in the government as you wish."
"No, no, Captain Zhang, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!"
"Shut up. Where's the person who reported the crime? Come in and record your statement. Let's review what happened together."
"Yes, Captain Zhang."
With the intervention of Captain Zhang, Wang Chuanzong quickly cooperated in reconstructing the course of events. Manager Wen also had someone send over the mall's surveillance footage, as well as videos and relevant testimonies taken by some onlookers, proving that Wang Yaozu and Wang Chuanzong were at fault from the very beginning. Even in the fight, it was Wang Chuanzong who started the fight first. However, because the victim defended himself in time and was not injured, and the extortion was only a verbal threat, and no money was actually extorted, even if the case was combined with the charge of assaulting a police officer, the only penalty would be detention and control, which would not reach the level of sentencing.
Pei Muyang didn't care. The parents of such naughty children just needed to educate them. If they were really locked up, the child would be doomed because no one would take care of him.
So both parties signed the confession, and while waiting for Captain Zhang to report, there were only three people left in the room.
Wang Chuanzong looked at the person opposite him and gave him a flattering smile. "Boss Jiang, look at this misunderstanding today. Of course, it's all my fault. I didn't recognize the great man. Thank you, Boss Jiang, for being generous and forgiving. You are willing to give me a chance to reform. I am very grateful to you. From now on, you are my adopted parent. I, Wang Chuanzong, will remember your kindness. If you have anything to say in the future, please talk to me!"
At this time, he finally understood why Manager Wen was so fawning to the man in the suit. That was a sincere president. If he could curry favor with him, it would be a great opportunity. The benefits that could be brought were beyond the reach of a small manager like Manager Wen. Of course, he didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
However, Jiang Chengyi didn't buy it at all. He looked at him coldly and said only a few words, "Get lost. I don't want to bother with you."
"Hey, okay, Mr. Jiang."
Wang Chuanzong touched his nose awkwardly. His way of pleasing President Jiang was completely blocked.
Just when he had nothing to say, a shrill cell phone ring rang. Wang Chuanzong glanced at the number, clicked his tongue and hung up. But the ring continued to ring relentlessly. He had no choice but to look at Jiang Chengyi, who was frowning and looking unhappy because he was disturbed, and pressed the answer button.
"Hello? What's up? No... I'm busy right now. How can I have time to go to Dragon Valley for a wild fight? What's wrong with you letting those idiots in the Demon Palace laugh at you for once? Tsk, okay, okay, I'll send you the number and you can find someone to play. I'm really busy. I'm at the police station. Hang up."
After saying that, Wang Chuanzong hung up the phone impatiently.
An ordinary phone call made Jiang Chengyi and Pei Muyang look differently.
Pei Muyang raised his handsome eyebrows slightly. He looked at the man opposite him who was typing a message on his mobile phone, and the smile in his eyes became patient and thoughtful.
However, Wang Chuanzong, who was busy typing, and Jiang Chengyi, who felt guilty, did not notice it.
It was almost late at night when they came out of the police station. Jiang Chengyi looked at the sleepy Pei Muyang, and his thoughts became active.
He took Pei Muyang's hand and squeezed it, then tried to coax him: "Yangyang, it's so late today. If you go back, not only will you disturb Aunt Ye, but she will inevitably worry about you. But my house is different. There are many rooms, and you won't disturb anyone. Why don't you stay at my place for one night?"
Pei Muyang looked at the time. It was already past half past eleven, so it was not appropriate to go back. So he nodded, took Jiang Chengyi's hand, and prepared to walk to the nearby shopping mall parking lot to drive back.
