Tian Xiaolan and Li Weimin entered the house and found that although the two had messy hair, they were still in good spirits. Xiang Ming's eyes lit up when he saw her enter the house, and he kept saying, "I told you, they will definitely come to rescue us!"
Shi Shichang was not used to pinning his hopes on others, but this time he was really rescued thanks to them. He stood up, looked at the people in front of him seriously, and bowed deeply.
Shi Shichang thanked them, his voice small but serious: "Thank you, I will definitely do what I promised you!"
Tian Xiaolan chuckled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your news tomorrow!"
Li Weimin was on guard outside. When he saw that she hadn't come out for a long time, he came in and urged her, "This is not the place to talk. Let's go!"
"Right now, come and help Director Shi."
In fact, only a few minutes had passed. Tian Xiaolan saw Xiang Ming getting up and staggering, and was about to help him up. Xing Yifei put his hand on Xiang Ming's shoulder and said, "I'll help you!"
Xiang Ming also felt that the tall Xing Yifei could support him better, so he leaned on his shoulders.
"Can you use your own strength?" Xing Yifei felt that his whole body was leaning on him, as if there was a stone on his body.
"I'm so hungry! I can't walk anymore!" Xiang Ming leaned on Xing Yifei and didn't want to take a step.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
He started yelling before he even left the house, and when I saw his intention I tried to shake his hand off, "If you don't leave, then stay at his house!"
I gave him face, but he still refused to serve me.
Although Xiang Ming hadn't been beaten at Zhou Dayong's house, going hungry was still abuse! He'd already finished the food delivered the previous night, and now he was ravenously hungry. He couldn't bear it any longer and walked back to see if anyone could give him a ride, but the man was about to abandon him.
He held onto Xing Yifei's hand tightly and followed them out.
At this time, the sound of shoes "clacking" was heard in the house. Zhou Dayong's mother pushed him and whispered to him, "Listen, is there a sound outside? Go and have a look!"
At this time, Zhou Dayong saw that they had fallen asleep, so he came back to sleep, not knowing that his backer Wu Dehua had already spent the night in the police station.
"Where is there anyone?" Although he was reluctant, he still got up and went out to see. He found that there were indeed a few people standing outside. He suddenly regretted not bringing anything to protect himself.
Zhou Dayong said viciously: "Who are you doing? Do you know who I am? You dare to come to my house to steal things? You must be so bold, right?"
"Wrong way, leave now!"
How could it be possible that so many people went in the wrong direction? Besides, he remembered that his door was always closed every day. Now it was wide open, which showed that someone was here to steal his things.
What was there to steal in his house? Aside from the two people who had recently arrived, he looked towards the room where Shi Shichang and Xiang Ming were staying and found the door was open. Where had they gone?
Zhou Dayong looked around and realized that his house was so small that there was no place for him to hide.
If Wu Dehua knew he had lost someone, he would be finished. He might be replaced as deputy director before he even lasted a day. It was not easy for him to serve him for so many years! Just to avoid a few dollars a month.
Looking closely, he found that two of those people were very similar in height to Shi Shichang and Xiang Ming. After all, they had worked together for so long, so it was not a problem for him to remember them. He rushed forward and wanted to take them down with his fists.
Shi Shichang was no pushover. He had been locked up for so long but still had the strength to twist Zhou Dayong's hand as he rushed over. "We haven't come to settle the score with you yet, but you've come to us on your own!"
"If you run away, how am I going to explain this to the mayor?"
Xiang Ming said, "Mayor? I'm right in front of you!"
Zhou Dayong laughed arrogantly, "Who's talking about you? I'm talking about the most noble mayor in town, Wu Dehua! You're just an acting mayor at best!"
Li Weimin really wanted to punch him to cool down his anger. Looking at Wu Dehua's silly look, it didn't look like he could come up with such an idea. It must have been his idea.
"You don't know that your mayor has been arrested a long time ago! I'm afraid you won't be able to serve as the acting director for long!" Li Weimin told him the news with a gloating look, trying to dampen his pride.
"How is that possible? You're just trying to scare me. I don't believe it!"
Tian Xiaolan continued, "If you don't believe me, you can go and see if Wu Dehua is still at his house."
Zhou Dayong was a little shaken, but he felt that she was saying this on purpose to lead him to see so that they could take them away. He couldn't complete the task he was told to do now. His hands were being squeezed and felt like the bones were about to break. He quickly said, "Is it not possible for me to trust you?"
Even after he said this, Shi Shichang did not let him go, "Hurry up and leave, I'll see him first!"
"No, you go first, I'll catch him!"
Li Weimin thought that if he didn't leave later, wouldn't it delay his sister's exam? His parents were still waiting for the results of this exam! Besides, Zhou Qiaoqiao was waiting for him at home, so he couldn't do this.
Seeing that they had been arguing there for a long time without reaching any conclusion, Zhou Dayong's mother waited in the room for a long time, but the child didn't come back and she couldn't see outside through the window, so she wanted to get out of bed and take a look.
"Hey kid, what did you see? Why don't you come back?"
"Right now, I need to pee." Zhou Dayong was afraid that his mother would be arrested as soon as she came out. If her old bones were broken, he would not have any extra money to pay for her treatment.
"Come in quickly, is there anyone outside?"
“No one!”
"Go away, I will chase you." He finally compromised. Shi Shichang's wives were all here, and the monk could run away but the temple could not. If he let them go now, he would be able to save him and he would have a reason to catch them all in one fell swoop tomorrow, and he would be able to win Wu Dehua's favor.
He was happy at the thought of becoming a real deputy director tomorrow. He had endured so much hardship to get this position, and he would never allow anyone to sabotage his promotion. As for what they said, he would not believe a single word. According to his understanding of Wu Dehua, Wu Dehua should be asleep now, and he had had several dreams.
Shi Shichang slowly let go of Zhou Dayong's hand: "Three, two, one, I'll leave after I count."
"I really won't arrest you. Why are you so nervous?" Regardless of whether he could win the fight or not, he let the people go now in order to catch more people the mayor hated. He suddenly figured it out.
When he finished counting, they came out one by one. Shi Shichang was at the end and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no one behind him.
Zhou Dayong in the room fell to the ground as soon as he was released. He felt his legs were a little weak and his hands were very painful.
Zhou Dayong's mother didn't wait for him to come back, so she came out to look for him and found him lying on the floor. "You didn't drink, why are you sleeping on the floor?"
