Chapter 9 Happiness comes too suddenly
Chapter 9 Happiness comes too suddenly
“You have an axe, I have a gun!
“You have 6,000 brothers, and the garrison, police, and security brigade are not vegetarians either.
"Don't forget that this is the Party-State's world!"
Hong Zhiyou said calmly.
"Do you believe it?
“The garrison, the police department, they all have bonuses at the docks.
“I think they’ll enjoy the show.”
Zhang Shaobai snapped his fingers and his men immediately handed him a cigar.
Of course Hong Zhiyou didn't believe it.
He just wanted Zhang Shaobai to say it himself so that he could confirm it.
"Mr. Zhang, are you threatening our Jinhai Station?" Hong Zhiyou's expression darkened.
"of course not.
“Of course I wouldn’t dare to touch a general like Stationmaster Wu.
"But a small second lieutenant... a dog died on the roadside, do you think Wu Jingzhong would care?"
Zhang Shaobai sneered coldly.
"Are you sure you can defeat me?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
"Let's make a bet. You won't survive seven days!" Zhang Shaobai made a naked threat.
"I want to try it." Hong Zhiyou shrugged.
"it is good!"
Zhang Shaobai turned to look at Wanqiu and said, "Miss Wanqiu, being talented doesn't necessarily mean you will live long, so you have to keep your eyes open.
"Don't be fooled by this cheap suit he's wearing.
"He was just a small second lieutenant, serving tea at Jinhai Station.
“In Jinhai, I am the only one who can save your uncle.
"Think about what I said last time again."
He wasn't bragging.
Why is Mr. Zhang Si so powerful in Jinhai? Besides the thousands of members of the Cao Gang, his eldest son Zhang Shaojie is a Whampoa student and currently serves in the Military Affairs Department.
Although he is not a high-ranking official, he has many connections among the middle and upper classes.
With Lu Qiaoshan as the bridge, as long as the money is in place, it would be possible for Zheng Jieming to get in touch with the family.
Wanqiu lowered her head, clasped her hands together, bit her lips lightly and said nothing.
"Let's go. Take care, Secretary Hong."
Zhang Shaobai gave Wanqiu a playful look, then swaggered away with a cigar in his mouth.
"Are you still going?" Hong Zhiyou looked at Wanqiu.
Wanqiu's eyes were full of determination: "Of course."
Hong Zhiyou nodded slightly, and the two went for a walk in the small garden at the back.
"Wanqiu, he is right. Actually, I am just a runner and odd job." Hong Zhiyou said as he walked.
“My uncle is a traitor.
"There are so many people coming to our house these days, including municipal officials, police, and gendarmes. They are staring at my uncle, and I know they are after money.
"Uncle probably can't escape this time.
"So, whether you are a handyman or an honest official is not important to me."
Wanqiu said in a deep voice.
"Then why are you coming tonight?" Hong Zhiyou was puzzled.
“My parents passed away early, and my uncle has been taking care of me. I regard him as my real father.
"We have to do something."
Wanqiu replied.
Thinking about how Mu Liancheng later took the woman to the island country, and Wanqiu married Xie Ruolin and lived a displaced life.
In this world, you treat people as your father.
People might take advantage of you as a fool.
"When disaster strikes, everyone flees for their own safety. You are kind-hearted. What did Zhang Shaobai say to you?" Hong Zhiyou sighed in his heart and asked with a smile.
"He, his father, Mr. Zhang Si, wants to marry me as his second wife." Mu Wanqiu replied.
Remarry?
Hong Zhiyou frowned.
Not only is the Cao Gang blocking his path to wealth, but now even Wan Qiu is targeting him.
What a fucking nemesis.
"What does your uncle think?" he asked.
“Uncle doesn’t trust the Zhang family.
“He still loves me very much and has always protected me despite the pressure.
“The China Merchants Building was set on fire by the Cao Gang a few days ago and it was almost burned down.
"Aunt said that everyone in Jinhai is fake, and the only one who can save us is Stationmaster Wu."
Wanqiu said with a painful expression.
"She's right. Stationmaster Wu can indeed save him." Hong Zhi nodded.
But Hong Zhiyou knew that this was a trick played by the Japanese woman.
On the surface, he would do anything to curry favor in order to survive and take off his hat.
In fact, it was just to make the webmaster relax his vigilance and escape to the island country.
“But my uncle couldn’t reach him.
"What my aunt meant was that if I could marry someone from your Jinhai Station, I might be able to get rid of my hat as a family member.
“So, I came here today, for you.”
Wanqiu's pretty face blushed slightly, and she looked at Hong Zhiyou with loving eyes.
"Just a paparazzi, are you disappointed?" Hong Zhiyou said.
“You’re not a paparazzi.
"You are Beethoven, Mozart, light, and wind.
“Really, I’ve never heard anything so beautiful.
"It's never happened even in my dreams." Wanqiu smiled sweetly.
"Wanqiu, that's not a dream. Even if it is a dream, it will come true."
Hong Zhi felt inexplicably distressed and gently held her hand.
"Will it really come true?" Tears welled up in Wanqiu's eyes.
Hong Zhi opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
He could lie to her.
Cheating her heart, cheating her body.
But the reality is that the situation in Jinhai is far more complicated than the original drama.
Even the Americans are helpless against the huge mountain of the Zhang family.
Although Hong Zhiyou had a plan in mind, he was not absolutely sure that he could get through.
Wanqiu understood his look, and a trace of sadness appeared on the corner of her mouth: "They all said that my uncle was wrong in two ways.
“You shouldn’t have money.
“You shouldn’t have a niece like me.
“Money and beauty have always been the root of trouble.
“Derrida once said that we may not be able to control life, but we can control death, which is the last and absolute freedom that humans have.
“If there comes a day, maybe it will come true.”
What a freedom fighter.
"You are just complaining without any reason. Pessimism is unacceptable.
"At least you are marrying an old man, no matter how bad it is, you can still be a second wife and enjoy a good life.
"As for me, Zhang Shaobai sent a death warrant.
“Seven days!
"But... who cares?"
Hong Zhiyou held her smooth shoulders, blinked and smiled.
"Wanqiu, you have seen my feelings.
"Don't panic, let's move forward, maybe it won't be that bad."
His tone was gentle and melted into her heart.
"Hong, thank you." Wanqiu felt warm in her heart and stood on tiptoe to kiss him.
"Go find a room and I'll sleep with you..."
She bit Hong Zhiyou's ear and murmured.
"What?" Happiness came too suddenly, Hong Zhi was a little confused.
"I am very happy today. While I am still a free agent, I will be the master of my own affairs.
"Besides, I...have never had a man."
Wanqiu whispered.
"Then you're at a loss, didn't you hear what they said about me?
"Tsukai Cannon... King."
Hong Zhiyou hugged her round little buttocks and grinned evilly.
“You may be a saint or a cannon…king.
"Who cares?"
Wanqiu followed suit and chuckled.
As she spoke, her stomach began to growl.
"You have to eat before going to bed. You must be hungry. I'll take you to eat." Hong Zhiyou said.
Having said that, he pulled Wanqiu out.
He opened Fang Min's car.
He took the packed boxes and suitcases and returned to his car.
"Where are you going?" Wanqiu asked.
"You'll know when you get there. Do you want to say hello to your aunt?" Hong Zhiyou asked with a smile.
"No! Tonight, I leave it to you." Wanqiu looked at him and smiled playfully.
"As ordered!"
Hong Zhiyou drove directly to a small restaurant in the alley and ordered some home-cooked dishes.
Wanqiu felt very relaxed being with him.
She didn't act like a spoiled brat at all and ate with her mouth full of oil, looking extremely happy.
After dinner, Hong Zhiyou planned to take her to the Navy Club to avoid being caught by Fang Min.
After all, he is not made of steel.
"Have you thought it through? You were starving just now, weren't you?" Hong Zhiyou paid the bill and held her little hand and rubbed it.
"Yeah." Wanqiu nodded, feeling shy and a little nervous.
She has a desire and pursuit for freedom in her bones.
If tomorrow is destined to be dark, why not cherish the last bit of light in front of you and indulge yourself?
“Beauty is like jade, and beauty has an appointment.
"For a dying man, this is the most wonderful encounter."
After Hong Zhiyou finished speaking, he took her out of the restaurant.
Just about to get in the car.
A crowd of people rushed out from both ends of the alley.
They were all strong men wearing coarse cloth, each holding a short axe.
"Hong Zhiyou!" the leading burly man roared.
"Hong, what should we do?" Wanqiu was a little panicked.
"It seems that some people can't wait. Lie down and don't show your head." Hong Zhiyou smiled, quickly opened the car door, and pushed Wanqiu in.
"Kill them for me."
……
What the hell!
Zhang Shaobai is such a beast, he never holds grudges against others!
In the moonlight, it twinkles and sparkles.
So many sharp axes!
