"Yingwei and Aping are both back."
"Look at these two, they're covered in sweat, they must have run all the way back."
"They must have been terrified."
"It's alright, it's alright."
“We’re all watching. If these people dare to do anything outrageous, we won’t stand for it.”
"Yes, we can't interfere with debt collection, but we definitely can't resort to violence."
Everyone started shouting at once.
Wu Yingwei and Wu Ping had no time to deal with this and quickly went to Mei Yueqin.
Mei Yueqin looked at the two of them, her eyes reddening again. A feeling of grievance welled up in her heart. She forced a smile and said, "Dad, Aping, I'm fine."
Wu Ping quickened his pace.
Wu Yingwei nodded, then looked at Lao Wu and the others with an unfriendly gaze.
The fifth brother met his gaze and said with a sheepish smile, "Uncle, I'm sorry, it was a misunderstanding. The door will be installed right away."
A snap.
The door and the frame finally aligned.
The door has been installed.
Although Wu Yingwei was still unclear about the situation, he sneered, "So many people came to my house and even broke down the door. This can't be explained away with just a misunderstanding, can it?"
Everyone looked at Lao Wu with curiosity, wanting to hear what he had to say.
They came to collect the debt with great force before, but suddenly changed their attitude, which was quite inexplicable.
Especially Chen Gui.
Everything was going according to his plan, so why did it change at the end?
What went wrong this time?
The fifth brother quickly repeated what he had just told Lao Meng, and everyone was immediately in an uproar.
I can't believe it!
Did Wu An go to pay off his debts?
They even paid back the principal and interest!
How is that possible!
Not to mention the villagers, even Wu Yingwei and Wu An were surprised.
Where did he get the money?
Chen Gui exclaimed, "There must be a mistake!"
"Where did Wu Erzai get the money?"
"He's only been working for a few days, there's no way he has the money to pay off his debts!"
The others joined in the discussion.
The fifth brother ignored him.
The boss made it very clear on the phone that Wu An personally came to deliver the money; how could there be a mistake?
Wu Yingwei turned to look at Chen Gui.
Feeling guilty, Chen Gui looked away and shrank into the crowd.
Looking at Mei Yueqin's red eyes, Wu Ping felt extremely distressed and whispered, "You must have been terrified."
"It's alright, it's alright."
As he spoke, he gently patted Mei Yueqin's back.
Mei Yueqin held his hand tightly and whispered, "I'm fine. I've been hiding in the house. Luckily, Erzi paid back the money in time."
Wu Ping nodded, looked at Wu Yingwei, and said loudly, "Since you came to return the IOU, why are you tearing down my door? What kind of logic is that?"
"You scared my wife half to death and pushed my Uncle Meng to the ground. What do you say about this?"
The fifth one has a big head.
He cursed Chen Gui in his heart, but asked aloud, "So what do you want?"
Wu Ping, usually a nice guy, was unusually firm today: "Apologize!"
The fifth brother nodded and apologized.
It's only right to pay back debts, but for them to come early to collect the debt and even tear down the door in front of so many people is really unreasonable.
The fifth brother asked, "Can we walk now?"
Wu Yingwei nodded and waved to the villagers, who then made way for him.
The fifth brother quickly led his men into the car.
After the van sped away, Wu Yingwei smiled at everyone, took out cigarettes and handed them out to everyone, who happily accepted them.
As for those who gossiped, the shameless ones wisely left long ago.
For example, Chen Gui disappeared without a trace.
"Yingwei, your second son has learned his lesson."
"You're really good as a father; you took care of that brat in one go."
"Now you don't have to worry anymore."
"He's been fishing and beachcombing these past few days, he's incredibly lucky, he actually made so much money."
“If the second son is still doing well, we still need to bring him home.”
Wu Yingwei coldly snorted without expression: "Today's incident was a close call, but in the end, it was all Wu An's fault!"
"He should have been responsible for handling it properly."
"You even praised him?"
Should we praise him for borrowing money at exorbitant interest rates, or praise him for beating someone into the hospital?
Upon hearing this, no one dared to say anything more.
Someone asked, "Still not discharged from the hospital?"
"It's been half a month already, just how much of a punishment has Wu An used?"
"I heard that family is not easy to mess with; they might be trying to extort money from us."
"I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to resolve."
"Old Wu, why don't you try to pull some strings?"
Wu Yingwei snorted coldly: "What are you talking about?"
"I have nothing to do with that kid anymore."
"What business is it of mine?"
After finishing a cigarette.
Everyone dispersed, and soon the whole village knew that the loan sharks had come to collect the IOU. It is worth mentioning that Wu An paid off the debt with his own money.
"That scoundrel has finally become successful?"
"As long as you're willing to work hard, that's fine."
"Why is Wu An making such a big fuss over repaying an IOU? What's he up to?"
"It's still Chen Guiling's path."
"Ah, is Chen Gui involved in this?"
"I heard..."
All sorts of rumors were circulating throughout the village.
...
On the other side.
Old Tan shook his head and said, "Kid, don't get entangled with me here."
"You also stated the rules."
"According to the rules, I cannot reveal to you who called me."
Speaking of which...
Old Tan's phone rang; it was Old Wu calling.
After listening to Lao Wu's report, Lao Tan put down his phone and said, "My men have already apologized to your family."
"My men didn't lay a hand on you, not even a hair on your head."
"Alright, don't ask any more questions."
"Come on, let me see you out."
Wu An's anger subsided a bit after hearing this. After all, Lao Tan was a big shot in the underworld, and he didn't dare to push him too far. Angering such a person would not do him any good.
We must not let momentary impulses lead us astray.
Besides, Lao Tan is a big shot in the underworld, and you can't afford to offend him. So he immediately said, "Boss Tan, no need, please sit down."
"I'll walk by myself."
Old Tan got up and said as he walked, "Today was indeed my mistake."
"If you ever need money, just come to me."
"Just because you paid off your debt so readily, I can lend you 50,000 without collateral next time."
Wu An smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you."
There won't be a next time.
This was the last time he would deal with him. Knowing what had become of Lao Tan, he would definitely keep his distance from him in the future.
But this matter is not over!
He took a cigarette out of his pocket but didn't light it.
It just holds it in its mouth.
He had made up his mind to quit smoking, but sometimes he really wanted to have one, not only because of the addiction, but also because he was thinking about something.
He needs to figure out how to find out who called Lao Tan.
Now that we've found out the truth, we need to think about how to retaliate.
No rush.
There's no point in rushing it.
It's quite a hassle to come all the way to town, so let's buy everything we need first.
Aqing came out of the shop across the street and asked, "Brother, why did it take so long? I almost called the police."
Wu An patted him on the shoulder and said, "There was a little hiccup."
Let's go.
"Go to the fishing tackle shop to buy fishing tackle."
