Gu An'an was busy until late at night before she finally managed to get home and take a nap. Meanwhile, several particularly exciting things were happening in the city.
Zhang Xiaojun only knows a bunch of shady friends; they'll help, but only if it costs money.
The Zhang sisters were even more disappointing. In their desire for revenge, they willingly allowed themselves to be played, but they still failed to achieve their goal.
"Diao Ergou, you promised me last night, how can you go back on your word? Do you believe I'll report you?"
Zhang Yanhong never expected that her former sycophant would undergo such a complete change of attitude after learning about what had happened in her family.
"Report? You haven't forgotten that you were the one who came to me last night, have you? I even said that you were harassing me while trying to persecute a good revolutionary comrade. Tell me, who will suffer more in the end?"
"you!"
"What do you mean, 'you'? You'd better pretend nothing happened last night. If you dare to report me, I'm not afraid. You said you wanted to be my girlfriend in front of so many people last night. Who do you think will believe you then?"
Zhang Yanhong's attempt failed miserably, and Zhang Yanqing fared even worse. Her boyfriend heard about what had happened to her family beforehand and dismissed her without even meeting her.
There was no other way; the three siblings could only rely on Zhang Xiaojun's cronies, on the condition that they get the money before taking any action, otherwise, forget about it.
The group arrived at the family compound in a large procession, only to be startled by the empty houses...
"Who did this, you heartless bastard! My family members aren't even dead yet! How dare you bully us like this? Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Zhang Xiaojun, hands on his hips, shouted outside, "Whoever moved my things, bring them back right now! Otherwise, if I find out who did it, the elderly and children in your family better watch out, or don't blame me if something happens to them."
The neighbors were unhappy to hear this.
“Zhang family brat, what do you mean by that? We’ve lived in the same courtyard for so long, and even if we look down on your family’s dirty deeds, we wouldn’t do something like emptying your house.”
"Exactly! If someone were moving so much stuff, we would definitely hear the noise."
"If you ask me, this is all karma. Things that don't belong to you will eventually be returned."
"Who says otherwise! They're bastards born from an affair, and they still have the nerve to make a scene in our yard. I think the police should take them all away!"
"Get out of the staff quarters! Get out of the machinery factory!"
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaojun's cronies ignored his attempts to stop them and turned to leave, spitting at him before they left, "Pah! So this is the kind of shameful thing that happened in your family. You even dared to lie to me and say that your cousin was not going to let you live and wanted me to help teach your cousin a lesson."
As soon as he said this, the three siblings were subjected to another round of criticism from the older women.
"I'm going to work first, you guys stay home and see who dares to kick us out."
This house is their last refuge; they absolutely cannot lose it, otherwise...
As she approached her work start time, Zhang Yanqing hurried off, pondering how to resolve the situation. At the same time, she began to grumble that her parents had pushed Gu An'an, that wretched girl, to the brink in their efforts to get her second son a job; otherwise, none of this would have happened.
I didn't dare to stop for a moment and finally arrived at my workstation before starting work. But there was already an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl standing there, doing her daily work in a very professional manner.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yanqing had a bad feeling.
She reached out and grabbed the other person's arm, her voice urgent, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
"It hurts, let me go."
As soon as the girl cried out in pain, helpers came over. "Let go of Xiao Cui. She's starting work here today."
"She works here? What about me?"
Zhang Yanqing pointed to her nose with an incredulous expression.
The woman scanned her face from head to toe, her tone full of contempt, "You? With such shameless parents, your family has completely disgraced our workplace, and you still want to stay here? What a pipe dream."
Zhang Yanqing didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. Just one night later, she lost her job because of it, and she couldn't even imagine what might happen in the future.
“They are them, and I am me. You can’t fire me for this reason. At worst, I’ll cut ties with them. No, I’m going to see the director.”
The woman crossed her arms and sneered, "Go on, go on! Xiao Cui is the director's niece, I don't believe she can cause any trouble."
He turned around and began to comfort the frightened Xiao Cui, "Xiao Cui, don't be afraid of her. If she dares to bully you, just tell me, and I'll make sure she gets what's coming to her."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yanqing paused slightly, but after a moment, she suppressed the urge to turn around and fight and continued walking towards the office.
Before long, a fierce argument broke out inside.
A few minutes later, Zhang Yanqing slammed the door and left. After running a short distance, she stopped, put her hands on her knees, and gasped for breath. Her eyes were fixed on one spot, and she said viciously, "Gu An'an, you will die a horrible death."
Gu An'an, who was conducting her third transaction of the day on the black market, suddenly sneezed, rubbed her nose, and a strange light flashed in her eyes. Could it be that the letters from last night had worked? Otherwise, why would she be sneezing all morning?
"Auntie, what do you think of this price?"
The man with the buzz cut kept glancing at the supplies in front of him, calculating how much money he could make after reselling them, feeling quite pleased with himself.
Gu An'an nodded, "It's alright. Although it's not as much as my retail business, it's much more convenient."
The man with the buzz cut was overjoyed and quickly weighed the goods and paid, "Auntie, do you have any more?"
He was just asking, and he didn't expect to receive such a pleasant surprise.
"And, can you eat it?"
The man with the buzz cut immediately nodded. His older brother was the boss of this black market, so even if he couldn't finish it all at once, he could just ask his brother. "No problem, I can eat as much as I want."
