Chapter 586 Battle of Wits 4



Everyone has a magnetic field that changes with time and environment; and this man has too much evil energy, and anyone with a little bit of vision can see it.

It just so happens that both Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang are people with good eyesight.

No one was talking, so the thin man climbed up to the upper bunk and started to find a topic of conversation. The first person he spoke to was Fang Guozhong. "Hey, comrade, hello!"

"Hmm?" Looking in the direction of the voice, Fang Guozhong nodded indifferently, "Comrade, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"It's nothing. Are you busy now? If not, let's chat. Time flies quickly. It's too boring to sit here with nothing to do." The thin man said with a smile.

Don't hit someone who smiles at you, and besides, you haven't fallen out with anyone yet; don't be too cold. If one or two people are cold, wouldn't that arouse suspicion?

"Nothing, what else can you do on a train?" Fang Guozhong's straightforward nature was fully revealed. "I don't know where you are from, comrade. Judging from your accent, you are not from G Province, right? It sounds a bit like the accent of the Yanhai area."

The thin man frowned barely noticeably, then relaxed his brows and pretended to be calm, "Yes, my hometown is F Province in Yanhai."

"No wonder, your accent sounds quite similar." Fang Guozhong finished speaking, and the thin man breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want the next sentence to make him more anxious. "Yanhai is very far away from G Province. How did you come here?"

The thin man's eyes flickered, and it was unclear whether he was speaking like that on purpose or just asking a simple question.

"I'm on a business trip. Our company needs to purchase raw materials. I also need to go to Beijing to find relevant manufacturers and compare prices. They say you should shop around, so I have to look in different provinces too."

Fang Guozhong let out a long "oh," and asked, "Is this the way it should be? Are you helping others, or are you doing it yourself?"

"Help someone."

"Helping others? No wonder you're so tired. If you could do it yourself, you could just call someone you trust over to run the show. There's no need to be so exhausted." Fang Guozhong chuckled. "I think you're a capable man, why don't you do it yourself?"

The thin man was silent for a long time before he spoke, "What can we do without money? Life is okay now, so let's just muddle along."

"How can a good man just get by? A good man should strive to make progress."

Gu Lingguo grabbed Fang Guozhong and said to the thin man, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. My brother is a straight talker. He's been like this for decades. Only in the army no one beats him. Outside, he's been beaten countless times."

The thin man said awkwardly but politely, "It's okay, it's okay. I didn't expect this guy to be so direct."

It's also rare!

Gu Lingguo pushed Fang Guozhong to the upper bunk and said, "Just shut up! With your mouth, it's the least you can do to offend others."

"Who said that? How have I offended anyone?" Fang Guozhong seemed very unconvinced. After all, he was an old man, so how could he not know how to offend people or not?

"Shut up and go to bed."

Fang Guozhong sneered, "I'm not sleeping. I'm in good spirits. Big brother, I'm already grown up, and you're still controlling me like you did when I was a kid. I won't tolerate that."

"No matter how old you are, you are still my brother. Can you come up?"

"No." Fang Guozhong acted as if he could do nothing to me.

"Hey, you're still trying to get me." Gu Lingguo pointed at Fang Guozhong and threatened, "Are you going to come over or not?"

"No......."

"If you don't go up, I'll go back and have a good talk with my sister-in-law. If you don't obey my eldest brother, I'll show you how my sister-in-law will deal with you."

As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Guozhong shut up awkwardly. At least in the eyes of the thin man, he was a man who was afraid of his wife; commonly known as a henpecked man.

Fang Guozhong stammered, "Brother, can I be down there? No, it's annoying to climb up and down."

"Then shut up."

"knew."

Fang Guozhong sat down next to Mr. Wang and said jokingly, "Dad, look at how fierce my eldest brother is. He's even fiercer than you."

Mr. Wang hadn't expected to be the victim of this melon-eating incident. He gave Fang Guozhong a long look. At Fang Guozhong's subtle reminder, a smile broke out on his face, like an old father gloating over a misfortune. "Your mother and I couldn't control you since you were little. Your eldest brother had to take care of you. I didn't expect you to be the same even after you grew up. That's pretty good."

"Dad, if you say that, my eldest brother will be even more unrestrained."

"No need to be restrained. You deserve a good lesson for what you did wrong." Mr. Wang added meaningfully, "Your situation today is inseparable from your elder brother's guidance and instruction. You should be grateful to him. Otherwise, with your temper, you would be despised by everyone at home."

It hurts.

Fang Guozhong thought about his father and wife at home, and it seemed to be true; his parents treated his wife better than him, and it turned out that this was the reason.

"Okay, stop bothering dad. Don't you know how annoying you are? If you weren't my brother, I would have thrown you out long ago." Gu Lingguo spoke bluntly.

Fang Guozhong sat on Mr. Wang's bed with an unconvinced and timid look. Although he was a tall man with a strong body, he insisted on looking aggrieved.

It's just...very funny!

Zhong Yuxiu laughed unkindly, earning an accusing look from Fang Guozhong. She covered her mouth with her hands, then finally spoke, "Brother, Second Brother has been like this since he was a child. You know that. You should have gotten used to it by now. At least you have my sister-in-law to share the burden with you now. You don't have to keep an eye on Second Brother all the time."

"It's true." Gu Lingguo thought about it and found that this was absolutely true.

No matter how unhappy Fang Guozhong was, he could not defeat the two people on the opposite side; one against two, he had no chance of winning, so in order to avoid humiliation, he decided to admit defeat.

"Hey, second brother, you better listen to big brother and don't make big brother angry. You can't beat big brother."

My heart hurts!

My lungs hurt!

The thin man took in all the family's words and actions and felt that they were very harmonious and there was nothing wrong; however, he always had a strange feeling in his heart, which made him realize the problem many times, so there was still something wrong with this family.

He spoke up at the right time to help, "It's okay, I know he didn't mean it, let's just forget about it; don't blame him, it was me who wanted to talk to this guy."

"For the sake of this elder brother, I won't bother with you today." Gu Lingguo pointed at Fang Guozhong, feeling very disappointed with him.

Fang Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief and gave the thin man a grateful smile; the thin man felt his sincerity and smiled back at him.

"I'm really bored on the train, bro, can we continue talking?"

"This..." Fang Guozhong went to see Gu Lingguo.

Gu Lingguo said: "My brother is not good at speaking, please forgive me if I have offended you."

"It's not that serious. We're just chatting casually." The thin man said with a smile, then asked, "Judging from your accents, you're not from Province G, are you?"
