Wu An had just put down his phone when Gao Qiangqi called.
Before calling A Jin, he contacted Gao Qiangqi first.
But the call didn't go through.
I sent the message first.
Upon answering the phone, he greeted, "Brother Qiang."
"Is he alright?"
"The person is alright...but this matter..."
“I understand. They’re pushing their luck, so it’s time to retaliate. Don’t worry about anything else; the trouble won’t be on me, but on you.”
"I see."
"Okay, I'll hang up now. I'll give Ah Jin a few more instructions."
Thanks.
"Um."
Gao Qiangqi hung up the phone.
Ajin excitedly mobilized his troops, preparing for a major operation.
"Chen Baosheng... what a strange name. Is he not a gangster?"
"Brother, who are you trying to avenge?"
"In town?"
"Find them and beat them up?"
More henchmen came into the courtyard. They were all burly and had short, sharp hair. They looked like they had just been released from prison. When they heard that they were going out to beat someone up, their expressions became more ferocious than usual.
"Break their arms and legs?"
Many people are eager to try.
These people were originally just out there, and it was only by following Gao Qiangqi that they were able to get on the right path, but they weren't entirely upright. Hearing what A Jin said, they were all somewhat excited.
Ah Jin gave the instructions several times, afraid that someone might overhear him, and dared not shout too loudly. He could only walk around and say, "Give him a beating, give him a beating, but don't kill him!"
The phone rang.
When I took it out, I saw that it was a call from Gao Qiangqi.
Connect it immediately.
"boss."
Have the people left?
"Not yet, I'm at my wit's end. I can't control these people. They keep threatening to kill people, they're always so unreliable!"
"Don't rush into action."
"Find the person."
"Go and investigate this person's background, see if there's a chance to frame him."
"What do you mean?"
"Do I really need to teach you this?" Gao Qiangqi's tone was much sharper on the phone: "It's best not to let the other party suspect A'an, understand?"
Ah Jin quickly replied, "I understand, I understand."
"But it might be difficult in such a short time. Right now, all I know is that person's name, nothing else."
Gao Qiangqi continued, "There are only a few places in town where you can have fun and stay overnight. If you go out and explore, you're sure to find something."
"Therefore, don't assign too many people. Too many people will attract too much attention and cause problems."
"If all else fails... we can leave some clues behind."
"Let the Chen family of Shangwan Village investigate me."
Akin hesitated: "This..."
"What's wrong?"
"Boss, aren't you being a little too nice to Ah An?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Gao Qiangqi paused, then sneered, "Are you planning to teach me how to do things?"
"No...no." Ah Jin chuckled dryly.
Hang up the phone.
Ajin arranged for the manpower to be deployed.
As Gao Qiangqi said, the town is not big, and there are only a few places to have fun and stay overnight. It is not difficult to find them, but it is difficult to "shift the blame".
Although Gao Qiangqi said he could leave clues, A Jin wasn't very willing.
In his heart, Wu An was certainly important, but his boss was definitely number one.
Even if he didn't leave any clues in the end, he felt that his boss probably wouldn't blame him.
...
Wu An sat in the old house for a long time, just watching the rain.
Of course, I wasn't spacing out.
Instead, he was thinking about things.
Admittedly, he is still just an ordinary person, and he tends to lose his composure when faced with problems. He has tried his best to plan, but upon closer examination, he realizes that things are still not done thoroughly enough.
Perhaps it's because the things he experienced in his two lifetimes weren't as exciting as what happened in the short one or two months since he was reborn.
There is still a lot of room for him to learn, grow, and improve.
The phone rang.
It was his sister-in-law calling, asking him to come home for dinner.
Holding an umbrella.
Go out.
When he got home, his father and elder brother had already returned, and the food was already on the table. Wu Yingwei opened the wine bottle after he arrived, and Wu An sat down, snatched the bottle from him, and poured the wine.
Wu Yingwei asked, "Is Old Fu, the boatman on your ship, alright?"
Wu An looked at Mei Yueqin.
The sister-in-law shook her head: "I didn't say that."
Wu Yingwei laughed and said, "It's caused such a big fuss, it's been all over the place for a while now. I happened to be communicating with the Shangwan Village Committee, and that's when I heard about it."
Wu An said, "The person is fine, but this is quite upsetting."
“It’s not that calling the police is a bad idea, but the village committee should be involved. Sometimes the village committee is more effective than the police in handling village matters.”
"I know."
"Then how about I..."
“Old Fu is a recipient of the Five Guarantees (a government welfare program for the elderly, disabled, and orphans). He offended a family surnamed Chen in Shangwan Village, the one with two trawlers. Dad, what do you think will happen if the village committee gets involved?”
Wu Yingwei frowned, hesitated, and remained silent.
"Let the police investigate first. At least we'll show them our stance and maybe that will intimidate the Chen family so they won't dare to do such petty things again."
"Um."
Wu Yingwei nodded.
My sister-in-law chimed in, "I think what Ah An said makes sense too."
Wu Ping muttered, "It's a bit too idealistic... hiss..."
Before his older brother could finish speaking, his sister-in-law twisted his arm hard with her fingers. Wu An glanced at it and saw that the twisted area was red and purple. Anyone who didn't know better would think he had been pinched by a lobster claw.
Wu Yingwei took a sip of wine and said, "By the way, the matchmaker has been found."
"You should chat with that girl when you have time."
"Let's set a time so we can visit each other."
Wu An was taken aback, thinking to himself, "So fast?"
Isn't this a bit too hasty?
Although he and Gu Anran knew each other since school, they haven't even been officially dating for a month, and their parents have already met so soon.
So the next step should be engagement?
Then wouldn't it be logical to hit a home run...?
Wu Yingwei frowned and asked, "What are you spacing out for?"
Wu An snapped out of his daze, took out his phone, and said, "I'll call and ask right now, Dad. Don't look at me like that. I'm not in a hurry, it's just that I have time right now."
Call directly.
Wu Yingwei snorted, too lazy to look at his pathetic act.
The elder brother and sister-in-law were overjoyed and gave Wu An a thumbs up.
Not long after.
Gu Anran answered the call.
Hearing some noise coming through the receiver, Wu An asked, "Is everything alright at home?"
Gu Anran said calmly, "It's nothing. Gu Jianfa lost all his money and still owes some."
"My grandma is beating and scolding me right now."
Wu An got up and walked to the side, listening carefully to the old lady's cursing and Gu Jianfa's shouts over the phone, and asked, "Why do I still hear Chen Baosheng's name?"
"Gu Jianfa was cursing the guy who won, saying that the guy was lucky and that even though Gu Jianfa and his friend cheated, they still couldn't win." Gu Anran's tone turned colder as she said, "If you ask me, he deserved it."
"You know this Chen Baosheng?"
Wu An casually replied, "I know him, he's Chen Long's cousin."
"oh."
As Wu An listened to Gu Jianfa's insults towards Chen Baosheng, his mind began to race.
