Chapter 59: Endless Worries
Come upstairs and sit on the sofa. The three of them looked at each other, silent, and no one had the heart to watch the TV when it was on.
Guo Yanping's expression was nervous, her eyes were dull, and she sighed for a long time, her mood was complicated, and her expression was melancholy, anyone could see it at a glance.
Xu Wenlong also frowned, depressed. Alas, blame yourself for being impulsive, bringing endless trouble and boundless worries to Aunt Guo's family out of thin air, can this not make people regret? It's just that when encountering such annoying things, how many people can calm down?
Li Jing is completely different. The young man has a good heart, he is a scholar, he doesn't know the sinister world, and he can't think of the consequences of stabbing a hornet's nest. Although he was forced to drink by the fierce "black dragon" at that time, he was so frightened that his soul was scattered, and he almost fainted. But the moment Xu Wenlong broke into the door, and the moment he punched to repel the hooligans, she was very surprised in fear and very happy in shock. It's just that because of his mother's presence, he didn't dare to show his excitement and pleasure too much, so he had to purse his mouth and look at Xu Wenlong silently, with incomparable admiration and admiration on his face.
Everyone was silent for a while, Guo Yanping took the initiative to break the deadlock, and slowly told Xu Wenlong about the bad deeds of the "Black Dragon......
"Black Dragon", the original name is unknown, at least Guo Yanping doesn't know, it is a tyrant in the local neighborhood. On weekdays, he is idle, does not do his job, and gathers a group of prodigal boys to cause trouble and make trouble. Specializes in extorting passers-by, blackmailing shopkeepers, and forcibly collecting security fees. Because he is fierce and vicious, ruthless, and desperate to fight for, no one in the entire neighborhood dares to provoke him. Especially the boss who opens a store to do business, he swallows his anger and is obedient, afraid of it like a snake and scorpion, and avoids it like a plague god. As long as he arrives at the store on weekdays, in addition to the delicious food and drink, he also has to obediently hold hundreds of thousands of yuan of hard work, and he dare not disobey at all. Otherwise, the store will be unpeaceful, or the worst will be hit by a car for some reason.
Three years ago, a businessman surnamed Zhou in Guangxi opened a non-staple food shop next door, and the business was booming. But because of his young age, he is straight, jealous and hateful, and his blood is strong. ignored the arrival of the "Black Dragon" gang and treated them coldly. As a result, in the middle of the night, when I couldn't reach my fingers, the grocery store suddenly caught fire, and it burned to ashes in an instant. And that's not all, a few days later, when the young man was out on an errand, a motorcycle suddenly came speeding up, and a guy knocked him several meters away. In the end, he was seriously injured, unconscious, and lost a leg, and the ending was very tragic. Although the police station heard that they came forward to investigate, there was no evidence and there were no witnesses at the scene, and the perpetrator fled to other places. Although the investigation is still being intensified, it is estimated that it will be closed in the end.
Soon after the incident, the "Black Dragon" was ambushed by the pelican eagle, the head of the trading company in the southern district of Binyang, and became its right-hand man who charged into battle and collected money in blood. As for the pelican eagle himself, Guo Yanping has only heard of his name and has not seen his person, and as for his background, it is even more impossible to know.
After listening to Guo Yanping's introduction, Xu Wenlong felt more calm and down-to-earth. He believes that there is only one way to deal with this kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the hard, and that is to fight-for-tat and retaliate with a tooth for a tooth. Otherwise, they will ride on your head forever, and pee, and make you suffer humiliation and never have a good life. But to compete with it, you have to have a certain strength. If you don't measure your own strength, if you are brave, you will end up like a boss surnamed Zhou. After figuring out the powerful relationship, he said to Guo Yanping: "Aunt Guo, the matter has come to this, don't worry about it anymore, forgive them a few ruffians and can't make any waves, as long as we are careful in the future." ”
"That's it," Li Jing also comforted her mother on the side, "What's there to worry about?" What can they do to us in broad daylight? It's a big deal to close down and stop doing business. ”
"Alas...... That's all there is to it! Guo Yanping frowned and sighed, got up and said that she was dizzy, swaying with endless worries and endless worries, and staggered back to her room to sleep.
As soon as her mother left, Li Jing suddenly became active. The mood was high, the mood was high, and he didn't want to rest, so he pestered Xu Wenlong and kept talking.
Xu Wenlong was uneasy and did not feel the slightest sleep, so he simply accompanied Li Jingdong to chat with each other, and did not urge Li Jing to go back to the room until late at night, and he was also slumped and hopeless to go to sleep.
This night, Li Jing had insomnia, which was also the first insomnia she had since she became sensible. She tossed and turned on the bed, sleeping left and right, unable to sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, Xu Wenlong's tall and straight body appeared in front of her eyes, the honest and charming smile swirled in her mind, and every word and deed every move on weekdays would appear in her heart bit by bit. I can't forget it, I can't get rid of it, it makes her feel both troubled and sweet, worried and happy, fluttering and fainting, like standing in the clouds.
Early the next morning, Li Jing hurriedly got out of bed, and after peeking at Xu Wenlong to go to morning exercise, he hurriedly picked up a mop to clean up.
This made Guo Yanping feel very strange, and kept shaking her head and muttering, "What's the wind today?" Why did you get up so early to mop the floor? But it's the first time in the world! But because she was preoccupied and in a bad mood, she didn't bother to ask, and went straight into the kitchen to make breakfast.
When Xu Wenlong came back from running, Li Jing immediately smiled and took a glass of water, and said softly: "If you are thirsty, drink a glass of water." ”
"Thank you!" Xu Wenlong took the water cup and drank it in a big gulp. As he drank, he seemed to remember something, and asked Li Jing with a look of surprise, "Why did you get up so early?" ”
"Hygiene. Don't you see that I'm almost done with the lobby? Li Jing tilted her head and said proudly.
"Oh, then you wait, I'll come down right away and help." After Xu Wenlong finished speaking, he put down the water glass and ran upstairs quickly.
A bright smile immediately appeared on Li Jing's delicate face.
When all the sanitation was done, it was almost time for lunch. Li Jing sat at the counter with her chin in her hand, her eyes drifting to Xu Wenlong, who was still busy, intentionally or unintentionally, and an inexplicable flush quietly rose on her face.
After a while, the diners walked into the restaurant in twos and threes, chatting and laughing, and when they found the table, they shouted and screamed "waiter, waiter".
Xu Wenlong hurriedly walked to one dining table, and Li Jing also went to another dining table......
Just when the two of them were sweating profusely, two people slowly walked in from outside the door. One has a fierce face but a depressed expression, and one has a cowardly face with sudden front teeth. They are none other than the "Black Dragon" and the "Big Storm Fang" who lost face and disappeared last night!
When Li Jing saw it, she couldn't help but change in shock, holding the menu in her hand stiffly, and her heart beat sharply.
