I can’t think of anything else that Lin Fang wouldn’t dare to tell me and that Chu Xiaoxiao would have to keep secret. This is even more of a dogma than Chu Xiaoxiao’s crush on me, and even more painful than Lin Fang’s intimate behavior with other men.
I can’t help but worry that I will find a chance to get the words out of Chu Xiaoxia’s mouth.
To keep Chu Xiaoxia from getting suspicious, I changed my smile: “You’re the one who’s lost, wait until the landlord comes and you’ll see.”
As soon as I finished speaking, the landlord came out of the stairs panting.
She was already slightly fat, and climbing the seventh floor stairs was like killing her.
“I was too anxious, so I climbed the stairs. Zhang Chao, it didn’t delay you, right? I’ll open the door for you.”
The landlord was sweating profusely and couldn’t wipe his sweat off before opening the door for me. As he opened the door, he bent down to get slippers for everyone, and his attitude was very different from the voice on my phone just now.
Chu Xiaoxiao looked dumbfounded, rubbed her eyes hard, then suddenly twisted my arm again, I screamed in pain straight away and asked her what she was doing.
“I’ll see if I’m in a dream now. You don’t know, I heard from my dad that you have offended the Chen family and it’s hard to rent an apartment in the whole Tong city, how come your landlord treats you so well.”
The landlord was more than nice, this attitude was simply more than that of a grandson.
He let us into the room, and as soon as I sat down on the sofa, he suddenly threw himself down on his knees and cried out at me, “Zhang Chao, I’m wrong, I’m wrong. This house, you can stay for a few days if you want, no need to put rent on it.”
“I just came back to get something, I’ll leave after I get it. I’ve already returned this house and won’t want to move back in.”
“I’m begging you, please, come back and stay here again, I apologise for not knowing the height of the mountain.”
The landlord came over on his knees and poured me some water, but his hands shook with nerves and the water got everywhere, and the tealight and the tea tray thumped.
“Stand up, there’s no need for that, we’re not going to bully you, and Zhang Chao isn’t that kind of person.”
But the landlord just wouldn’t do it, kneeling there and looking at me beggingly.
“Zhang Chao, what’s wrong with you?” Chu Xiaoxiao looked at me suspiciously, probably thinking that like Chen Yuzhou, I was also a bully who loved to be soft and afraid.
“Big sister, stand up first and have a good talk, I just came to get the same thing.”
When the landlord saw that I didn’t look like I was playing a trick on her, she stood up and sat down on the sofa, her feet together and her hands on her knees, like a rattled schoolboy.
Chu Xiao Xiao pushed me, “What the hell did you do to her? If you have something to say, do you have to humiliate people like that?”
I laughed, “I’m innocent, I don’t know what happened to her either. I swear with both hands, I just knew I could fix her, but I really don’t know what happened.”
I was also curious as to what Surran’s people had done to her to scare her like that. Surran wasn’t a gangster, there was no way they could have threatened her.
The landlord was begging for mercy, but wouldn’t tell me what was going on, so I had to threaten her that if she didn’t tell me the truth, I would do whatever she wanted.
“I say, I say, Zhang Chao, I really didn’t do those false invoices, it was our manager, I was just working for her, I didn’t get a penny of that four million.”
“The person who called you just now found out that you falsely invoiced?”
The landlord’s ears turned red with anxiety, “It really wasn’t me, I was also used. Zhang Chao, you mustn’t call the police, or I’ll be dead.”
In such a short period of time, Junran’s people were able to investigate what the landlord had done so clearly, I’m afraid this investigation ability is even stronger than the police, this is too scary!
“Zhang Chao, I beg you, I have an old man and a young man, I can’t be arrested. You stay here, I won’t charge you rent.”
I said in a cold voice, “What does that make me? Harboring a crime? Besides, I didn’t find out about this, the guy who called you did, and it’s not my right to call the police or not.”
I only knew that Suran must be able to take care of the landlord, but I didn’t think it was such a terrible investigative ability. In front of Junran’s terrifying investigative skills, everyone was like transparent.
If I wanted to investigate Jiang Ming, Han Kun would have known the first time, and he wouldn’t have allowed me to do it. But why on earth, can’t Han Kun just not want to avenge my father?
When Chu Xiaoxiao heard that a crime was involved, she said nothing more and sat quietly on the side waiting for me to make a decision. The landlord was scared out of his wits, four million in embezzlement, enough to put her through jail.
“I’m really wrong, our manager told me to do this, I didn’t take a penny. Zhang Chao, you can’t send me to jail!”
The landlord repeatedly begged for mercy in desperation, and Chu Xiaoxiao could not listen to him any longer: “What is your manager’s name? We can’t possibly cover up your crime, you have to at least tell us who your manager is.”
“I, I work at Ju En Group, I, our manager is Chen Yu Zhou ……”
Oh, that’s interesting, Chen Yu Zhou steals money from his own family. It’s just a pity that the Ju En Group is a group company, even if Chen Ruhai is the chairman and Chen Yu Zhou is the chairman’s son and branch manager, he has no right to steal the company’s property by means of false invoicing.
With this evidence, it’s enough to send Chen Yu Zhou to jail. This is the gift I have been waiting for for a long time.
Chu Xiaoxiao said, ”Great! This can send Chen Yuzhou to jail!”
The landlord’s face turned pale and he jumped over and hugged Chu Xiaoxiao’s leg, “No, we’ll all die if we do this. Who dares to arrest Chen Yuzhou in Tongcheng? Who dares to control him? In the whole of Tong City, the Chen family is the king’s law. Zhang Chao, don’t challenge the Chen family again. Please, just think of it as you doing it for yourself ……”
I’m most annoyed with people like this, who are hard and afraid, who are being crushed underfoot and don’t know to get up and fight back, who are clearly victims of Chen Yu Zhou’s bullying themselves, but who in turn want Chen Yu Zhou to deal with me. She is begging me now, but as soon as she has a chance to turn over a new leaf, I believe she will only treat me more viciously than before!
I didn’t say anything, I turned around and went to the bedroom to open the safe, the gun was still lying there honestly, it was great that the house hadn’t been occupied by a new occupant yet, otherwise the gun would have been found.
After taking the gun I greeted Chu Xiaoxiao and left.
The landlord hugged my leg and wouldn’t let me go, begging me to promise to let her go.
There are times when people explode with amazing strength. I struggled a few times and surprisingly failed to break free, and there was no way I could kick her just to break free.
The landlord was crying with snot and tears all over her face, and Chu Xiaoxiao couldn’t bear to look at her. After dragging the landlord a few times and failing to get away, she let out a long sigh.
