Chapter 585: Catch...

Old Song walked slowly towards the gate of the yard with very heavy steps.

He had no resentment towards that Young Master Chen. He had committed so many illegal and criminal things over such a long period of time that he had long expected this day to come.

Even though he knew a lot of secrets, people still let him leave. He felt that this was the most kind thing to do. He had made a lot of money over the years. After leaving Beijing, as long as he could find a suitable place to settle down, his family could indeed live a good life.

Just leaving homeland...

In the hearts of Chinese people, it is hard to leave their homeland!

Now I have no choice but to leave.

Ugh……

After walking out of the courtyard, he stood on the steps and lit a cigarette, squinting his eyes at the rising smoke. He suddenly felt a little confused about the future.

After taking a few puffs of his cigarette, he sighed again and walked towards the east entrance of the alley.

It's already eleven o'clock. Chen Shao just said that he would immediately contact a large truck to help them transport their things and send them to Langshi. He must rush back as soon as possible to notify the other two brothers. If he delays any longer, he may not be able to leave before dawn.

He clearly remembered what that person had just said, that if they had not left Beijing before the sun rose tomorrow, then they would not have to leave.

Having followed this man for many years, he knew clearly that Chen would definitely do what he said.

……

After Old Song left, Young Master Chen was the only one left in the room, sitting behind the desk. He leaned back in his chair, staring through the glass on the door at the pitch-black outside. A strange light flashed in his eyes from time to time, and the expression on his face changed from calm to cautious, and then from cautious to ferocious, as if something was making it difficult for him to make a decision.

But soon, his expression returned to calm.

At this moment, the door leading to the west wing of the main house was opened from the inside. Perhaps because it had not been oiled for a long time, the hinges at the connection between the door leaf and the door frame made a creaking sound that was not very loud, but somewhat harsh.

The creaking sound awakened the man named Chen who was lost in thought. He turned his head and saw a graceful figure walking out of the dim west wing.

"Third brother..."

Looking at the woman walking out of the house, the man named Chen, who originally had a slightly stern expression on his face, immediately put on a smiling face.

He smiled and waved his hand: "Why don't you sleep? Come here."

"Third brother, I can't sleep alone without you...ah..."

The woman had just walked over and hadn't finished her words when the man surnamed Chen reached out and grabbed her arm. With a little force, he pulled her into his arms and let her sit on his lap, causing the woman to scream.

"Your husband can't satisfy you. Why do you act like a hungry wolf every time you come to me?" The man raised his hand and pinched the woman's face teasingly.

The man's words made the woman's expression a little unnatural, but she adjusted her mentality in an instant and patted the man's chest coquettishly.

"You are so annoying, Third Brother. How can you tease me like that?"

"Hahaha……"

After the man's laughter stopped, the woman raised her hands and hugged the man's neck, looking into his eyes and continued with a little caution: "Third brother, don't forget what you promised me."

"Don't worry!" The man loosened his arms around the woman's waist and patted her on the back. "I guarantee that your Zhou Cheng's name will be on the adjustment list this time. However, you have to do what you promised me. Even if he is transferred back to the city, you have to guarantee that you will accompany me at least once a week. Otherwise, I can transfer him back, and I can also let him go to a farther place."

The man's words made the woman's heart tremble. A complex expression flashed across her lowered eyes, but she quickly adjusted her mood, a smile reappeared on her face, and she nodded and said, "Third brother, I will definitely do as we agreed in advance."

"I hope you can do what you say." The man raised his hand and gently tapped the woman's nose.

"Of course, I will keep my word. Your Zhou Cheng will be transferred back before the end of the year at the latest. If you can't come back, you can leave me or sue me in the Supervisory Committee. I will accept it."

"How could that be, Third Brother? I believe you." The woman rested her forehead on the man's chest. Because she lowered her head, a look of pain appeared on her face.

Hearing the man say that name again and again, she felt a strong sense of guilt in her heart, and she didn't know whether what she was doing was right.

Soon, she forced herself to suppress this sudden emotion and began to think about the intermittent conversation she had just heard outside the house.

Li Yancheng?
She felt that the name was familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

She had been thinking about it for a long time in the room just now, but she still couldn't remember where she had heard this name. There are not many people who can make the man in front of her afraid.

By the way, according to the fragmentary content I just heard, Chen San must have committed a crime... Uh, no, it was his subordinates who worked for him who committed some crimes, and the police are investigating now.

In order to save himself, Chen San asked those people to leave Beijing overnight.

And Li Yancheng is responsible for investigating this case.

Where have I heard this name before?
The woman who was lost in thought didn't even react to the fact that she was being carried up and stood up. It was not until she was carried sideways and walked a few steps that she came to her senses.

Knowing what was about to happen, she bit her lip and said, "Third brother, can you... can you clean the bottom first?"

"Hey, you're the only one who's always bothering me. You always ask me to wash first. What's the matter? Do you think I'm dirty?"

"Oh, Third Brother, you misunderstood. How could I think you were dirty? It's just...it's just that we all have families. Washing clean is also a responsibility to ourselves and our families, isn't it?"

"You doctors and nurses are such trouble. Well, go into the house and I'll get some water to wash." After saying that, the man surnamed Chen let the woman in his arms stand on the ground.

A light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the woman who was already standing on the ground, and she remembered where she had heard the name Li Yancheng.

Hospital. She heard it in the hospital where she worked, the First Hospital of Chengdong District. She heard it not long ago, probably last month.

If she remembered correctly, this man named Li Yancheng was now the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and he had just taken the position not long ago.

The reason why people in the hospital mentioned this person was because he worked in their First Hospital in his early years.

Even Chen San is afraid of this person...

The woman who had already walked to the door of the west wing glanced back. The man surnamed Chen was quite obedient and had already taken a basin to the yard to fetch water. She was the only one left in the room now.

After taking a quick look around the room, she had made up her mind.

……

It was nearly twelve o'clock on the night of the 9th. Li Yancheng, who had just sweated a lot, was sitting in the study room, feeling refreshed and smoking a cigarette comfortably. He had not had a good rest for three days, and after a period of intense exercise, the fatigue on his face had disappeared, as if he had just drunk a tonic soup, and his face was rosy. His wife, who had been tormented by him, was sleeping soundly on the bed in the bedroom with a quilt in her arms.

After taking a few puffs of his cigarette, Li Yancheng leaned over and took out a dip pen from the pen holder on the table, then took out a piece of blank letter paper from the drawer, and began to write down on the paper what had happened in the past few days, one by one, in chronological order.

He didn't put the pen back into the pen holder until he finished smoking a cigarette, then stood up and walked to the door of the study. After turning off the lights, he tiptoed into the bedroom and lay down on the bed.

Luo Min, who was sleeping soundly, seemed to sense something. She slipped into his arms and muttered a few words that he couldn't understand. Then her breathing became calm again.

That night, some people slept comfortably holding their wives' soft bodies, some stayed up all night investigating a case, some were anxiously planning to leave Beijing, and some were holding other people's wives in their arms.

The guy surnamed Chen was the one who hugged someone else's wife, but what he didn't know was that while he was messing around in the house, a jeep slowly stopped at the gate of the courtyard where he was. After the car stopped, the back door was pushed open, and a woman who looked to be in her thirties got out of the car. "Jiandong, I see you drive very well, did you know that Chen Laosan has a family here?"

After getting off the car, the woman first looked around, then fixed her eyes on the gate of the courtyard house in front of her. When she heard footsteps behind her, she retracted her gaze and turned to ask the person behind her.

"I... Sister Ling, you misunderstood. I'm just more familiar with this place. I didn't know that Third Brother had a house here."

The person who came over was a young man in his twenties. Facing the woman's question, he hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands to distance himself from the matter.

The woman just glanced at him calmly, then turned her head and raised her chin to gesture towards the gate of the courtyard in front of her.

"Can you open the door, Jiandong?"

"Sister Ling, you..." The young man took two steps forward to the woman's side and said with an embarrassed look, "Let me be honest. Even if you go in and catch them in the act, what can you do? Can you still get a divorce? Even if you let them stuff you naked into the bed, you still have to accept it in the end."

The woman didn't say anything. She turned her head slightly and stared at the young man in front of her until the expression on the young man's face could no longer be held. Then she turned her head and fixed her gaze on the gate of the courtyard opposite.

"Jiandong, you're right. I really can't do anything. It's impossible for me to divorce him. I just want to see that woman."

"This... Sister Ling, please listen to my brother's advice. Let's go back. Just pretend you didn't hear anything tonight and you haven't seen me, okay?"

"I'll say this one last time. If you're not willing to open the door for me, I'll go over and kick it down myself."

When the young man named Jiandong heard this, his face instantly fell.

He really wanted to slap himself a few times. How could he go home at exactly that time? It could have been a few minutes earlier or later, but he just happened to be there at that exact time.

He was really in a difficult situation.

Seeing that he still didn't move, the woman didn't say anything, but walked towards the door. Seeing this, the young man hurriedly grabbed her arm.

"No, no, no, Sister Ling, I'll open it. I'll find a way to open it. Please don't be impulsive."

The young man didn't dare let her kick the door. If she really did, it would definitely wake up the neighbors, and the matter would definitely get bigger and bigger. The couple would then have no room for maneuver.

Whether the couple gets divorced or fights, the young man doesn't want to care, nor can he care. But they can't get divorced because of him. If they do that, he would be offending both the Chen family and the woman's family at the same time.

It would be strange if his old man didn't beat him to death when he returned.

"Lv Jiandong, just tell me, are you going to help me or not?"

The woman whose arm was held looked at the young man and asked. When she saw the embarrassed and conflicted look on the man's face, she thought about it for a moment and then reacted.

"I know what you're worried about. How about this? You help me open the door, and I'll go in by myself. You drive away, and I won't tell anyone that I came here in your car. How about this? Just pretend we haven't met tonight."

Hearing the woman say this, the young man finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He also knew that things had developed to this point and he could no longer stop it. He could only cooperate and try to keep today's situation under the smallest possible scope.

"Hey... Sister Ling, please wait a moment." The young man sighed, loosened his hand that was holding the woman's arm, turned around, walked to the passenger side of the car, opened the door and put his upper body in.

Soon, the young man took out a dagger from the car, walked straight to the gate without saying anything, and inserted the dagger into the gap of the door with the help of moonlight and street lights. After moving it up and down twice, he found the bolt, and then began to use the tip of the dagger to carefully move the bolt bit by bit.

After a few minutes, the door was opened with the young man's persistent efforts.

"Okay, Jiandong, go ahead and don't worry about the rest."

Seeing that the door was open, the woman walked over.

The man smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Ling, you sound so easy. Yes, I can leave, but what if you guys start to quarrel?"

"Don't worry, I won't make trouble with Chen Laosan. I said, I just want to take a look at that woman and appreciate their ugliness."

"Well, although the door is now open and you can go in with just a push, I still want to advise you again, Sister Ling, it's really unnecessary. What will happen if you see it? It will only dirty your eyes and make you feel uncomfortable both mentally and physically.

Look at Dong Yaohui, the second son of the Dong family in our compound. Look how clear-headed he and his wife are. At home, they are husband and wife. When they go out, they can do whatever they want. They don’t interfere with each other. As long as they don’t do too much and cause trouble for others, it’s fine.”

"Oh, Jiandong, what I heard from you is that you also have someone outside? Does Xiaoya know?"

"Uh... Sister Ling, this... How did this get to me? I have never done anything to let Xiaoya down."

"Oh, I don't care about you. Okay, since you don't want to leave, then wait for me in the car. Don't follow me in. It's not appropriate. You should know that Chen Laosan is a very petty person. If you see his ugly behavior, I think he might cause trouble for you in the future."

"Looking for trouble with me? Haha, come on, I'm not afraid of anyone! Sister Ling, I'm not bragging, there are really few people in Beijing who can scare me."

"You'd better say the same thing in front of Second Brother Luo." The woman didn't tolerate him at all and directly retorted back. After she finished speaking, she raised her hand to push the door, raised her leg to step over the threshold and walked in.

The second brother Luo she was talking about was Luo Yang.

"Uh..." When the young man heard her mention Luo Yang, his breathing stagnated.

He is young, only twenty-five years old this year. When the Luo family moved out of the compound, he was still a little kid wearing open-crotch pants. He has no impression of the four siblings of the Luo family at all.

Like some other generations, especially those who are not ambitious and only know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, these two sons of the Luo family are their nightmares.

There is no need to compare the level and position of the old man in the family. Just the careers that these other people's children have built on their own are enough to make guys like Lu Jiandong, who just idle away their time, dare not act rashly in front of those people.

Ask him to get mad in front of Luo Yang? Haha, without calling his parents, he can be crushed to death with just one finger. How much free time does he have to have to go and ask for trouble?

Not to mention that the Luo family has an even more powerful son-in-law.

Lu Jiandong had only seen Li Yancheng from a distance once, but the name was well-known to him.

Come to think of it, his mother's life was saved by someone else.

Last year, his mother suffered a sudden myocardial infarction and was sent to the general hospital. After rescue, just when the medical staff were about to give up, a vice president suddenly remembered that Li Yancheng was also teaching students in the general hospital, so he hurriedly sent someone to invite him over.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the vice president is also trying to give it a try.

Unexpectedly, after Li Yancheng came over, he used a few acupuncture needles to buy a few hours of time for the Western medicine doctor to perform the operation from the "King of Hell", and thus successfully saved the life of the old lady of the Lu family.

Standing outside the door and watching the woman who had turned on the flashlight and tiptoed around the screen wall, Lu Jiandong hesitated for a moment, sighed, turned around and went back to the car.

Although he really wanted to go in and see Chen Laosan's ugly appearance, he gave up after considering it again and again. There was really no need to offend others over such a trivial matter.

The woman who had already walked into the yard did not look around with the flashlight, nor did she need to look around, because the only light on in the entire yard was in the west wing.

Standing in the middle of the yard, she took a deep breath to calm herself, then walked towards the window of the west wing. After just a few steps, she heard the creaking sound of the wooden bed shaking, mixed with bursts of women's moaning and several men's voices that she was particularly familiar with.

Before coming, she thought she could face it all calmly, but she didn't expect that just hearing the sound would cause her extreme physical discomfort.

She quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth, turned around and walked quickly towards the gate.
