Chapter 69: The Calm Before the Storm

Candlelight dinner, seven or eight exquisite side dishes, Zhang Dan opened a bottle of red wine, as if we had returned to the warm and sweet days.

Tonight's Zhang Dan seems to be celebrating the holidays, she is extremely happy, and she is even locked until 8 o'clock in the evening, watching the picture of me being interviewed on TV, and seeing the scene where she and her daughter are also on TV.

In the hour that this show was broadcast, she answered several phone calls, obviously colleagues and friends were inquiring about it, and even when I opened WeChat, I also saw her posting a circle of friends and a picture of an interview with a TV station.

It's just that this is not enough, I also received several phone calls, the first of which was Manager Wang's.

Manager Wang was my leader when I delivered takeaways, and he fired me, and now Manager Wang is calling me, obviously there is something.

"Hey?" I walked over to the balcony and picked up the phone.

"Is it Xiao Chen? I'm Wang Kui. Manager Wang hurriedly spoke.

"It's me, what's wrong?" I said coldly.

"Xiao Chen, I was really embarrassed before, but I actually had a hard time expelling you. Manager Wang continued.

"Isn't it just a complaint, I have already withdrawn the complaint, and you have no mercy. I said.

To be honest, I have no feeling for this job, and since I was fired, it is simply impossible for Manager Wang to let me go to employment again.

"It's not easy for us to do this, and you have offended such a powerful person, where do I dare to keep you, you know, I am just a regional manager, how can I have so much power. "Manager Wang seems to be complaining.

"I've offended someone, do you mean Li Jiahao?" I said in a deep voice.

"Mr. Li is a figure with a head and a face in Binjiang, don't you know what kind of person he is? Do you think he is looking for me, can I not do anything?" Manager Wang continued.

"Okay, I finally know the real reason why you fired me, don't worry, I won't have any negative impact on the company. I took a deep breath and hung up the phone.

Sure enough!

That day, Manager Wang asked me to go to the company to go through the resignation procedures, and at that time, Li Jiahao had already gotten the news, and he sent Sun Yao and Mustache to block me, not only beat me, but also kidnapped me to a broken warehouse, intending to kill me.

Li Jiahao was beaten by me, this is a fact, but he killed me, and I could see that this person was ruthless, at that time he didn't know that it was me who secretly asked him for money, which can be regarded as a mistake, but the matter has been exposed now.

As long as Li Jiahao sees the latest news and interviews, and sees tonight's show, he can conclude that I am Zhang Dan's husband, and I am the one who asks him to take the money.

It's just that I'm a little strange, Zhang Dan and Li Jiahao are together, she doesn't seem to be sincere, otherwise why would she still want to get back together with me? Just because I have become a big hero in the last few days?

With a question mark in my heart, I received another call from Liu Yun.

"Hey?" I picked up.

"Big hero, you're really too bold, I don't even know what to say about you. Liu Yun's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's too late, and the day the news flies, I know I can't hide it. I responded.

When I was fighting with the gangsters on the train, I had already been filmed and posted on the Internet, the news that I was not dead, Li Jiahao would know sooner or later, and as long as he confronted Sun Yao, he would find out that I did it, not to mention all kinds of signs, Zhang Dan and I were inseparable, as long as Li Jiahao checked again, I would know that Zhang Dan was my wife.

I thought about things too simple before, in fact, the first time I anonymously threatened Li Jiani, it is estimated that Xu Jiani told Li Jiahao, and Li Jiahao was also threatened by me, if they contacted Zhang Dan again, or Zhang Dan also knew that she was being adopted.

If Zhang Dan knew that I already knew everything, how could she feel so calmly as if this incident had not happened?

Unless there is one point, that is, Zhang Dan never knew about it, Xu Jiani only knew that someone had made a video, but she didn't dare to tell anyone, and Li Jiahao didn't dare to make a noise and talk to Li Jiani or Zhang Dan about it, because it was Li Jiahao who had the biggest impact.

"Tomorrow at seven o'clock in the evening, in the woods near the Tiger Cliff Bridge, there will be a transaction. Liu Yun continued.

"Li Jiahao promised to give seven million in cash?" I frowned.

"Well, I told him, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, if he plays tricks, I will make the video and photos public as soon as possible, and break the net with him!" Liu Yun explained.

"Okay, I'll talk to my two brothers. I nodded.

"Be careful tomorrow, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of them, Li Jiahao will play tricks, and it would be best if it could be resolved peacefully. Liu Yun finally reminded him.

"No problem. I said yes and hung up the phone.

Tomorrow at seven o'clock in the evening, in the woods near the Huya Bridge.

I held my chin in one hand and began to think.

The Huya Bridge is a sparsely populated location near the suburbs, and it is indeed a good place to trade, and as for the seven million cash, it is estimated that it will be packed in several suitcases, which is worth a lot of money.

I was unsure, I had dealt with Li Jiahao, and I knew how ruthless this person was, and once it was planted in his hands, the consequences would be particularly serious.

Liu Yun and I have a one-line contact, so they don't know the time and place Lin Qiang and Zhang Lei yet, and I have to tell them as soon as possible.

After watching TV, Zhang Dan had already taken her daughter to take a bath, so I had this free time to make a few phone calls.

Busy dialing Lin Qiang's mobile phone, I see what he says.

"Hey, Cuong. I spoke.

"What do you say, Brother Chen, is the trading time set?" Lin Qiang's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, tomorrow night at seven o'clock, in the woods near the Huya Bridge. I responded.

"Okay, I'll arrange for my brother to step on the point, there will be no problem. Lin Qiang nodded in agreement.

Seeing Lin Qiang's promise, I exhaled slightly, believing that with Lin Qiang's resourcefulness, there should be no big problem, but I still have to be careful in everything.

"Ah Qiang, Lei Zi is about to get married, when trading, it's best not to let Lei Zi get involved, in case something happens, it won't end well. I thought about it for a moment and continued.

"Brother Chen, I know, try not to involve him, but what do you say when he asks?" Lin Qiang said.

"If you can delay it, just pay him for this matter. I said.

"Okay!" Lin Qiang agreed.

Hanging up the phone, I exhaled heavily, I knew that there would be results tomorrow, but was Liu Yun really that reliable? Could it be that something went wrong, could it be that Li Jiahao played tricks? Could it be that Sun Yao's mustache and they conspired with Li Jiahao again?

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but be worried and a little panicked.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Husband, what are you doing, why don't you take a shower?" Zhang Dan walked in the door and continued.

"Where's Duoduo?" I asked.

"Duoduo is estimated to be tired of playing in the past two days, and has just fallen asleep. Zhang Dan explained.

"Oooh. I nodded in agreement.

"By the way, husband, tomorrow I will send Duoduo to school, and then my mother will come, and my brother will also come. Zhang Dan seemed to think of something, and said hurriedly.

"W-What?" I frowned.

"My mother called me and said that you are not a bad person, in fact, it is very good, I hope we can get back together, don't make any more trouble, as for the divorce, what we said before was angry, don't worry. Zhang Dan explained.

Is Zhang Dan convinced? Mother-in-law and brother-in-law plan to take the initiative to apologize?

I glanced at Zhang Dan a little strangely, only to see that she had finished washing and was wearing a black silk hollow nightdress, as if after tonight, we could really become a family.

Probably just drank red wine, Zhang Dan's cheeks were puffy, and she looked at me like this, expecting my response.
