Guang Liangjun and Gu Jianfa came out of the prefab house, looked up, and were immediately startled by the huge crowd of onlookers.
There are way too many people here!
"Ganlinmu, is this some kind of big deal?"
"Who says otherwise? It's just gambling a little money, what's the big deal?"
The two whispered to each other.
"What a waste of the money I just got! I only played one round!" Gu Jianfa rubbed his hands and said, "I feel like I'm on a good run today. I should be able to win money, maybe even make a comeback."
"Brother Fa, where did you get the money?"
"It's a lie. You have no idea how popular my niece is. She's as beautiful as an angel. Her looks, figure, and temperament are unmatched by anyone in the surrounding villages. It's just that my niece doesn't dress up much, otherwise she would be almost like a female celebrity on TV."
"So I found some people and said I could help make connections, and those people obediently gave me the money."
"Aren't you afraid they'll all come knocking on your door?"
"What's there to be afraid of? At worst, we can go on blind dates together. If my niece doesn't like those ugly ducklings, she can't blame me." Gu Jianfa became more and more smug as he spoke: "Anyway, the money is not going to be refunded."
"Brother Fa is truly brilliant!" Guang Liangjun flattered, "Brother Fa really knows how to make money."
"That's right, that's right, I'm just unlucky, otherwise I would have made a fortune long ago." Gu Jianfa paused, then changed the subject and said, "That grandson Chen Baosheng is lucky, he didn't even come today."
“That’s right.” Guang Liangjun suddenly pursed his lips and said, “I think I saw your niece.”
Gu Jianfa was taken aback: "Where?"
"That... the prettiest girl."
"It really is her, and her little boyfriend too."
"That's... Gan Linmu, it's Wu An!"
"You know him?"
"I'll recognize him even if I'm a ghost!"
"you……"
"Didn't I tell you about my ship..."
"Oh... so this is the kid. Ah Jun, don't worry, I'll find a place for you, and I'll make sure you get a good cut from him."
"Brother Fa, let me tell you, this kid is incredibly rich, and also very cunning..."
"Hmph, no matter how cunning he is, if he wants to marry my niece, then I have to agree. If I don't agree, he can only watch helplessly."
"That's great, you'll definitely be able to handle him."
"He's got a good grip on his hands. Looks like this kid is richer than I thought. Good, very good, hehehe."
Gu Jianfa was laughing happily when he was hit on the head with a stick: "What are you laughing at? You just won money, didn't you!"
"Lower your head."
"Hurry up and catch up."
He winced in pain, but dared not utter a sound, nor even look at who had hit him. He kept his head down and hurried forward.
We've gone a bit further.
Guang Liangjun said, "Brother Fa, the cop who beat you just now is surnamed Yu. He beat you on purpose. That guy is very close to Wu An."
"I've learned this the hard way before."
Then came some insults and abuses against traditional Chinese culture.
Gu Jianfa spat and muttered a curse. He was obsequious to his face, but behind his back he was constantly swearing and even blamed Wu An for it.
...
On the bus.
Wu An and Yu Kailang exchanged a glance across the distance, nodded almost imperceptibly, and then looked away in perfect unison.
Everyone understood each other without saying a word.
Gu Anran happened to see Yu Kailang hitting Gu Jianfa, and pointed at him, saying, "Anran, I saw Gu Jianfa."
"He was also beaten."
"That's really... great."
Wu An smiled, pulled her raised hand down, but didn't let go, just held it in his hand and played with it, saying, "You must have been dishonest to get beaten."
Will he be arrested?
"meeting."
"Will that lead to imprisonment?"
"..." Wu An looked at Gu Anran, whose face was full of expectation, and shook his head, saying, "No, that won't happen."
"But you'll be detained."
"It will take at least seventeen or eighteen days."
Gu Anran was somewhat disappointed: "He's a repeat offender, I can be a witness."
Wu An could tell that Gu Anran really wanted to put aside her own family for the greater good, so he didn't say anything, but he was already prepared to deal with Gu Jianfa next.
He figured that as long as he didn't kill Gu Jianfa, Gu Anran would definitely support him wholeheartedly.
Let's arrange for him to be "exiled to Ningguta" first.
It's unclear whether the raid on the casino will affect Lao Tan. If he wants to send Gu Jianfa away, he'll need Lao Tan's "strong support."
He thought about it and decided not to tell Gu Anran that Gu Jianfa's arrest and detention was just the beginning, and there would be a lot of trouble to come.
I just don't know when the casino will start settling accounts.
After the people were taken away, the prefab house was sealed off, a cordon was set up, and the main force withdrew. The onlookers also dispersed, chatting about the rare sight as they walked away.
Gu Anran came to watch the fun halfway through, and was going to set up a stall next.
He first took Gu Anran to her stall, and the two spent some time together before Gu Anran told him not to stay with her anymore.
This stall is for doing business.
With him beside her, Gu Anran couldn't concentrate on her work at all. That was bad enough, but he would also touch her inappropriately from time to time. Although it was just getting close and holding hands, Gu Anran still felt embarrassed.
Now that the two are getting more and more familiar with each other, Wu An is becoming more and more unrestrained.
certainly.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and she didn't find it annoying at all. It's just that there are people coming and going in the market, and she couldn't be too unrestrained in public.
...
Wu An returned to the market. Before he even entered the house, he overheard them talking about the casino. As soon as he pushed open the door, A Qing excitedly asked, "Brother, when do you think the casino owner will take revenge on Chen Baosheng?"
Wu An shook his head: "Who knows?"
"It's uncertain whether they'll retaliate."
"The police should keep it a secret, right?"
Ah Jin smiled and said, "Brother An, you wouldn't understand."
"In the underworld, everyone has a right to know where the wronged are, and where the debt is owed. I can't just let this go after suffering such a huge loss."
"As for keeping it a secret, it is a secret, but there are no secrets that stay hidden forever."
Wu An also laughed.
That's good.
He didn't stay at the market any longer and went home around noon.
Thinking there was nothing else to do, I lay in bed with the fan blowing and drifted off to sleep.
I woke up from a nap.
It was already dark.
I was woken up by my phone ringing. I picked it up and saw it was my sister-in-law calling.
Call him to dinner.
When he arrived at his doorstep, a crowd had gathered, all talking about the raid on the town's gambling den. Some of them spoke with such conviction that Wu An almost couldn't help but laugh.
This rumor is quite outrageous. The scene was quiet and orderly, and no one dared to cause trouble. But listening to everyone talking, you would think that Jackie Chan had caused a scene at the casino. Someone even added, "Don't believe me? I saw it with my own eyes."
Wu An greeted everyone, listened for a while, and then made an excuse to go back to his room.
He forgot that reality is often more surreal.
