Mixed in 1980

Chapter 306 Are humans and gods angry?

Zhang Ning strolled around Beihai Park with her camera, constantly pressing the shutter button on the boats on the lake. After the 1990s, the park became noticeably more lively.

Not only locals love it, but many tourists from other places also take a boat trip here to experience the mood described in the lyrics.

"The small boat pushes through the waves, and the beautiful white pagoda is reflected on the sea, surrounded by green trees and red walls..."

Unconsciously, Zhang Ning let out two soft hums.

"Make way... Zeng Tuqiang, are you crazy?"

The sudden noise woke Zhang Ning. Turning around, she saw a person running towards her, followed by a boy holding a wooden stick more than half a meter long.

Driven by professional instinct, Zhang Ning picked up her camera and snapped a series of photos. After the others rushed past, she took off running after them.

The two people in front of you aren't running very fast.

The legs seemed heavy, indicating that it had been chasing for a long time, perhaps coming from somewhere else. I wonder what grudge it held against it.

"Chen Fan, stop right there!"

Zeng Tuqiang was panting heavily, his steps were heavy, but he kept chasing after him relentlessly.

Ten years! A full ten years!

Every day I think to myself that I might not be their biological child, but rather someone my parents picked up from a garbage dump, probably because they only have two daughters and are missing a son.

The culprit behind all of this is Chen Fan.

That bastard is really despicable. I can't vent my anger or erase the psychological trauma he's caused me over the years without giving him a good beating.

However, things did not turn out as expected.

The patrolling police suddenly appeared, pinned him down, and handcuffed him.

Chen Fan walked over again with a sly grin: "Officer, this is just a petty thug. Take him back and teach him a lesson."

Enraged, Zeng Tuqiang struggled violently: "Chen Fan, you bastard, I'll kill you!"

Chen Fan nodded and said, "Officer, look."

"Don't move!"

The police officer sternly rebuked Chen Fan, then said, "Comrade, please come with me to the police station to investigate the situation."

"Okay, I'll cooperate!"

Chen Fan chuckled and slapped Zeng Tuqiang on the back of the head: "Kid, behave yourself. You're in for it now. You'll regret this later."

Zeng Tuqiang was furious, but there was nothing he could do.

He's handcuffed.

He knew Chen Fan too well; if he said anything more than necessary, he would get a beating. Only by being obedient could he avoid being punished.

Fortunately, the police glared at Chen Fan and said, "Sir, please don't make a move, or I'll handcuff you too. Come with me."

Soon, we arrived at the police station.

Zhang Ning also caught up, showing her press card: "Hello, officer, I'm a reporter from the Evening News. May I interview them?"

"No!" Chen Fan was right next to him.

“Fine, I’m willing to be interviewed. Even if you disagree, I can still be interviewed myself. Believe me or not, I’ll expose all your secrets,” Zeng Tuqiang threatened.

Chen Fan was furious. If this got out, he would lose face big time: "You little bastard, you want to be taught a lesson, don't you? I'll have your sister deal with you later."

“Then I’ll accept it!” Zeng Tuqiang said stubbornly.

"I'll get my hands on you later." Chen Fan gritted his teeth, resigned to his fate.

The two didn't fight; they were just chasing each other. It wasn't a serious case, and the police didn't take them to the interrogation room. They just found a place to sit down and took out paper and pen to take notes.

First, ask Zeng Tuqiang: "Please state your name, gender, age, and occupation."

"Zeng Tuqiang, male, 21 years old, a sophomore majoring in biological sciences at Beijing University."

"A Peking University student?" The police officer was taken aback.

After writing it down, he looked at Chen Fan, who answered truthfully in return: "Chen Fan, male, thirty years old, would you consider me a writer?"

"A writer?" The police officer was taken aback again.

After noting it down, they asked, "Author, what books have you written? We need to register them."

Chen Fan casually mentioned a few book titles, and Zhang Ning, who was standing to the side, exclaimed in surprise, "You are the great writer Chen Fan? I am a fan of yours, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"That's my honor. Just don't write anything nonsense in the newspaper later."

"do not worry!"

Zhang Ning nodded, but her eyes sparkled. Being a book lover was just a hobby; being a reporter was her job. Today, she was determined to get some information out of this great writer.

For the past seven or eight years, Chen Fan has kept a very low profile.

Aside from serialized novels, he doesn't write any editorials or similar articles, and he never appears in public. If you were to write an interview with him, many readers would definitely buy it.

The police interrupted their conversation: "You two, one a college student and the other a famous writer, what is your relationship, and why are you fighting?"

Chen Fan scratched his head awkwardly.

Zeng Tuqiang chuckled coldly, a slight smirk playing on his lips: "He's my brother-in-law, the very brother-in-law who specializes in ripping off his brother-in-law!"

Brother-in-law beats brother-in-law? The policeman and Zhang Ning were both stunned. The former was surprised, and the latter was excited. The famous writer Chen Fan was beaten by his brother-in-law with a wooden stick. What a great news headline.

"As for why I hit him, it's a long story, it goes back to when I was nine years old..."

Zeng Tuqiang was determined to embarrass Chen Fan. Ignoring Chen Fan's repeated interruptions, he began to expose Chen Fan's past, starting with how he taught Chen Fan to write essays and caused Chen Fan to get beaten up.

Both the police officer and Zhang Ning couldn't help but laugh.

So this famous writer is really that wicked? He specializes in messing with kids, what he does is utterly inhumane, and during summer vacation, he sends them a mountain of summer homework.

Hearing that Zeng Tuqiang had been fooled by Chen Fan and doubted that he was not Chen Fan's biological son, Zhang Ning clutched her stomach and laughed so hard she could hardly breathe. "Is this something a human being would do?"
Zeng Tuqiang showed no sign of stopping, continuing to recount how Chen Fan had tricked him over the years, until today, after the paternity test, he finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Chen Fan just wanted to cover his face, and in the end he could only explain, "I'm doing this for your own good. Think about it yourself, before I fooled you, did you ever pass your exams?"

"I tricked you, a failing student, into getting into Peking University. Without my trickery, you wouldn't be where you are today."

"Go to hell with you! I got into Peking University through my own hard work. It has nothing to do with you. Stop trying to make yourself look good," Zeng Tuqiang said angrily.

"Okay, stop arguing!"

The police officer suppressed a laugh and coughed lightly, saying, "Your situation is a family matter, you can resolve it yourselves when you get home. But if you're disturbing public order, a family member needs to come and sign something before you can leave."

"My wife is pregnant, can my sister-in-law come over?"

Zeng Ali is pregnant with her second child, and Xu Jinqiu and Zhao Yuanyuan are clearly not suitable for today's situation. They also don't want to trouble their elders. After thinking it over, Zeng Ajing is the most suitable.

If Zeng Ajing comes over, she can still deal with Zeng Tuqiang.

Seeing that the police agreed, Chen Fan called Zeng Ajing, and soon Zeng Ajing drove over, signed the papers, and got the two of them released.

Once outside the police station, Zeng Ajing immediately grabbed her younger brother's ear: "Are you trying to rebel? You dare to chase after your brother-in-law with a stick?"

Zeng Tuqiang screamed, but dared not struggle: "Second sister, he has been bullying me for 12 years, why don't you say anything to him?"

"..." Zeng Ajing was speechless and let go of his hand.

My brother-in-law is indeed despicable and not a good person at all. He bullies his brother-in-law endlessly and deserves this fate: "Even so, you shouldn't have given an interview to reporters."

"I just want to embarrass him once."

"You idiot! Your brother-in-law is embarrassed, but aren't you embarrassed? You've been treated like a monkey since you were little. If this gets reported, people will laugh at you to death." Zeng Ajing covered her face.

Zeng Tuqiang retorted, "I'd be happy to do that too. I've lost face so many times since I was a child, one more time won't make a difference. As long as he loses face, that's all that matters."

That stupid little brother is hopeless!
Zeng Ajing shook her head, opened the car door, and let her brother-in-law get in. As for her younger brother, she told him to walk back and reflect on his actions on the way.

"Brother-in-law, you deserve it!"

Once in the car, Zeng Ajing glared at her brother-in-law. This wasn't her brother's fault; after being bullied by him for twelve years, it was only natural for him to fight back once.

Chen Fan felt embarrassed and didn't dare to refute, so he simply changed the subject: "Your sister is pregnant with her second child, and all the company's affairs have been dumped on you. Can you manage to keep up?"

"It's alright. After establishing Starlight Investment Company, management has become much easier. We have several more companies under our umbrella, but there's actually less work to do than before."

Zeng Ali's luxury brand has been launched for some time, focusing on a Chinese style, but promotion has been extremely difficult in the past two years, and progress has been unsatisfactory.

It still needs time to settle.

However, the sports brand that they came up with later on has done quite well. The design and quality are both good. In the past two years, they have hired many celebrities to endorse them and have been spending heavily on advertising, so their sales are pretty good.

While chatting about company matters, the car quickly returned to Ya'er Hutong. When passing a large courtyard, the road was blocked, and a group of people were arguing.

The argument was about selling the house.

Many people had already accepted Chen Fan's conditions, but some raised the price and pulled the entire hospital to increase their bids, causing Chen Fan to abandon the acquisition.

When the neighborhood committee came to announce the news, the people who originally wanted to sell immediately became anxious.

A main room in the courtyard is 16 square meters. Taking into account the average area of ​​the courtyard, it can be appraised as more than 30 square meters. If you exchange it for a house twice the size, it would be more than 60 square meters.

Only a fool wouldn't change it.

Moreover, there is a resettlement fee of 5000 yuan per person. The current average monthly income is only 240 yuan, which is equivalent to two years' average salary.

It’s gone now!

The whole family continued to squeeze into one room.

They argued and argued, and then their tempers flared up and they started fighting, which even the neighborhood committee couldn't stop.

Chen Fan didn't want to get involved in this mess, so he told Zeng Ajing to turn around and take another route, going back from the other end of the alley.

When they got to the door, they found Xu Jinqiu and Zhao Yuanyuan squatting there watching the show. Teacher Xu was holding a handful of sunflower seeds, cracking them open and laughing.

The gossip-loving girl is back online!

Seeing the car stop, Xu Jinqiu stopped eating sunflower seeds and looked at the two of them curiously: "Why did you two come back together?"

"I just went to the police station to get your man out."

Zeng Ajing smiled wryly and explained the situation: "My brother-in-law brought this on himself. After all these years, he finally pushed Xiaoqiang to his limit."

"You're really something, bullying Xiaoqiang for so many years, the retribution has finally come."

Xu Jinqiu was both amused and exasperated, and pinched her husband hard: "And the reporters even caught us! What will the headlines be like tomorrow?"

"Brother-in-law assaults brother-in-law, renowned writer Chen Fan is outraged?"
