Chapter 428 I hope I'm overthinking it.



night.

Wu An didn't drink much.

Since this had just happened, he was afraid that if he got drunk and started talking nonsense with his father and older brother, his father might find out that he had schemed everything behind the scenes. Even if the outcome was good, his father would probably still feel uncomfortable.

It's not that I blame him for causing trouble.

Instead, I was worried that something might happen to him.

Parents plan far ahead for their children and are willing to give everything for them, but they may not necessarily expect their children to give too much in return, especially to do things at great risk.

Parents' greatest wish is for their children to be safe and sound.

Therefore, Wu An dared not tell Wu Yingwei about it.

It's better to avoid trouble.

Wu Yingwei didn't drink much, saying that there were still many things to deal with the next day. First of all, there was the matter of the sea area contract. Although Village Chief Shen was hospitalized, the matter still needed to be moved forward.

Wu Yingwei also stated frankly that Shen Nan had already signed the contract for the sea area contract.

The matter is settled.

He couldn't manipulate this matter; all that was missing was a signing ceremony.

He has to set up the stage.

Wu An expressed his understanding and told his father to do what he should do.

That's what he wants.

No need for anyone else to give it to me.

He can get it himself.

In life, there will always be times when others lend a helping hand, but don't rely on others. Once you start thinking about relying on others to help you, you're doomed.

Not to mention, they can't even give you a hand.

Unless that person is your girlfriend.

However.

Even with a girlfriend, you can't just pick her up a few times; in the end, you still have to rely on yourself.

Wu Anshen agreed.

I went outside.

After a burp, feeling slightly tipsy, Wu An thought it was quite nice.

Halfway there.

Aqing has arrived.

"Hey bro, wanna have another drink tonight?"

"Okay, let's go to the convenience store and buy some braised dishes."

"Okay."

We arrived at the convenience store.

Around 8 p.m., Lao Jiang had already closed the shop.

Smash the door.

Old Jiang muttered as he opened the door.

"Old Jiang, wanna grab a drink?"

"Okay." Old Jiang smiled, closed the door, tidied up the inner room, brought out some braised dishes and wine, and the three of them sat around the small table and drank.

I picked up a cup first.

"Old Jiang, I need to trouble you with something else."

"Ah An, just say what's on your mind."

"Alright, we're all on the same side now..."

Aqing raised her hand: "Wait a minute, how come we're on the same side now?"

"No?" Old Jiang raised an eyebrow: "It's not unreasonable for you to pay a third of this table of food and drinks, is it?"

Ah Qing chuckled: "We're all on the same side, Uncle Jiang, I was just joking."

Wu An asked, "Old Jiang, did you become enemies with Chen Gui because of what happened with Shui Laosan back then..."

Old Jiang picked up the thread and said, "Yes, I felt something was wrong at the time. I didn't have that much of a grudge against Shui Laosan... It took me a long time to find out that Chen Gui was the one stirring up trouble."

"But I can't beat him."

“I tried to tell your dad, but he didn’t believe me at all.”

“Sigh, if it weren’t for your dad back then, I would have been crippled or dead.”

After saying that, he downed a glass of wine.

Wu An suddenly realized that this made sense. No wonder Lao Jiang helped him in every way; it wasn't just because he had a grudge against Chen Gui, but also because of his father's connections.

Old Jiang asked, "What's up?"

Wu An said, "Help me exaggerate Chen Gui's matter as much as possible."

Old Jiang's eyes flashed, and he smiled, "Okay, that's a piece of cake."

Wu An said, "I'm planning to open a supermarket in town. It's in the preparation stage, and I estimate that construction will begin at the end of the year, and it will definitely be open for business next year."

"My girlfriend is making the plans now. If you have time, please give her some pointers."

Old Jiang's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, I'm free, I have plenty of free time."

He knew.

Wu An said this because he wanted to get rich with him.

After drinking two bottles of wine, Wu An and A Qing got up to say goodbye. As they left, A Qing asked Lao Jiang again, "Are you one of us now?"

Wu An nodded.

Ah Qing was happy and didn't ask in detail how Lao Jiang had become one of their own. He couldn't think of that much either, and muttered that he could eat and drink for free at the convenience store from now on.

Wu An kicked him: "You can't do this to your own people."

"Also, since you're building a new house, don't let Aunt Juan handle everything."

"You should pay more attention too."

Aqing scratched her head: "My mom won't let me get involved."

Wu An slapped him on the back of the head again: "You just ignore it because I told you not to?"

"never mind."

"Since we can't go out to sea tomorrow anyway, take me to see your new house tomorrow."

Aqing grinned and said, "Then I'll tell Mom."

...

Hospital.

Shen Nan stayed with the patient at the hospital.

Old Village Chief Shen woke up slowly, probably because he had slept too much in the afternoon and couldn't fall asleep at night.

"Anan, pour me some water."

"Grandpa, you weren't just pretending, were you?"

"..."

Despite complaining, Shen Nan still went over and poured a glass of water.

Old Village Chief Shen was drinking water when he almost got so angry at his grandson that he actually did it. After catching his breath, he asked, "How is the village now?"

Shen Nan curled his lip: "What else can happen? From now on, it will be the Wu family's world."

"My sea area..."

Old Village Chief Shen put down his teacup and said, "Don't worry, your matter... will be fine."

Shen Nan said, "Nothing will happen now, but that may not be the case in the future."

"I told you from the beginning, you should have..."

Old Village Chief Shen sneered, "Isn't it chaotic enough already?"

"Is there still something between you and Chen Gui?"

Shen Nan shook his head.

Old Village Chief Shen took a deep breath and said, "That's good. Chen Gui's matter is over and there's no need to talk about it anymore. Wu Yingwei's succession as village chief is a done deal, so you don't need to have any crooked thoughts."

"I've thought far ahead for the path you're going to take."

"Wu Yingwei is the village head, and we still need a deputy head. Who do you think is suitable?"

Shen Nan's face lit up with joy, and he asked, "Thank you, Grandpa. I... I think Brother Minghao is a good candidate."

Old Village Chief Shen glanced at him, "the look of 'looking at a fool' flashed across his eyes," then closed his eyes: "No, because of Chen Gui, I've already made things difficult for the higher-ups."

"If we arrange for Ahao to join us again, the higher-ups might not agree."

Shen Nan: "Then they might agree."

Old Village Chief Shen: "We can't afford to gamble."

"Alright, let me think about who to assign."

Shen Nan coughed twice and asked, "Chen Gui sent me a lot of messages, asking me to investigate the USB drive. Do you think I should help him investigate?"

Village Chief Shen asked, "How will you investigate, and who will you investigate?"

Shen Nan: "Wu Yingwei."

Old Village Chief Shen waved his hand: "Don't waste your energy."

"I can't see through it, I just can't see through it."

"Chen Gui is a mad dog; he's only saying this to drag Wu Yingwei down with him."

Shen Nan frowned: "But I also think it was Wu Yingwei who did it."

Old Village Chief Shen: "It wasn't him."

"I think it's that kid Wu An."

Shen Nan was taken aback, then laughed: "Grandpa, you're overthinking it. How could that be? It's impossible."

Old Village Chief Shen sighed, "Perhaps I'm overthinking it."

At the same time, he added in his mind, "I hope so... otherwise it will be troublesome."

Shen Nan hesitated, then, seeing the old man close his eyes and pretend to be asleep, he shut his mouth and took out his phone to play.

The old man has his own ideas, and if I talk about them too much, it will make him unhappy.

He simply shut up.

Open the game.

Hey.

This game is interesting.

This game must break the record.

Damn, it was just a hair's breadth away!

Again...

Old Village Chief Shen squinted at this scene... then closed his eyes completely, out of sight, out of mind!
