Chapter 59 Leave a Way Out

The behavior of the petty hoodlum Yunlong led Zhao Wuyou back to the police station.

This time it's Fatou Police Station.

After his subordinates took over the task, he hurriedly ran back to Jinmao Mansion.

The living room was packed with people. There weren't enough sofas and chairs, so several relatives stood against the wall. The air was thick with the smell of smoke and sweat, and even breathing felt sticky.

Zhao Wuyou entered the room panting, not even having time to drink some water, when he heard an angry shout:

"Zhao Wuyou, what have you done?"

Zhao Wuyou said unhappily, "Auntie, I'm just doing my own thing every day. Don't blame me for everything without even knowing the facts."

Hearing this, the aunt's anger intensified. She grabbed Zhao Wuyou's clothes with her claws outstretched and roared in a shrill voice:

"The person causing trouble is implying that it's your problem. If we don't respond by tomorrow morning, the district committee will launch an investigation against me!"

My aunt was unsure; she couldn't guarantee that she was clean.

More importantly, what exactly did Zhao Wuyou do?
"Yeah, Wuyou, what exactly did you do? Before I left work, my boss called me into his office and told me to sort out my family matters before coming back to work, but the thing is, I don't even know what those matters are."

"Don't worry, your uncle's colleagues are talking about him, saying things about our family..."

"Everyone, be quiet!"

Zhao Wuyou, disregarding manners, shouted loudly, awkwardly shaking off the hand on his body, and asked the middle-aged man who had been standing against the wall without saying a word:

"Third Brother, my two shops in Fatou were just shut down. Fortunately, my employees took the blame, and I just got out of the Fatou police station. Do you know why?"

Third Brother is my cousin. He was promoted from Fatou, so Zhao Wuyou thought of him first. All the things happened at once, and if he wanted to know the reason, Third Brother's side was probably the fastest way.

To this day, he hasn't connected the matter with the KTV, because those women don't have that much influence.

Third Brother's expression was grave: "I just called Director Qiao, but he hung up."

"Zhao Xiaochui!"

Suddenly, the silent old man spoke, and an unfamiliar name entered everyone's ears.

"Who is that?"

Does anyone know Zhao Xiaochui?

"I've never heard of it."

"Wuyou, who is this?"

Zhao Wuyou looked at the old man in shock: "Grandpa, how do you know this person?"

A 19-year-old massage therapist in a 60-yuan massage parlor, who is just a little better at massage, doesn't think the old man has anything to do with him.

The old lady on the sofa wiped away her tears:

“That kid tried to scam your grandpa at the kindergarten gate today. His car and he got impounded. I only found out when I got home that not only your son was frightened, but everyone else got into trouble.”

At this moment, Zhao Wuyou's father finally appeared. He looked at his son and said, word by word:

"Your grandpa's driver's license has expired, the license plate of his electric scooter is invalid, and the car still runs on gas. Do you understand the consequences of causing an accident while driving an unlicensed and unregistered vehicle?"

Zhao Wuyou: "..."

My sprightly grandfather~~~
Normally, there would be no consequences. You could just find someone and spend some money. The old man is of advanced age, so what kind of consequences could there be?

But now a problem arises: if we pay money, will the other party accept mediation?
"Who is Zhao Xiaochui?" Zhao Wuyou's father asked.

Zhao Wuyou took a deep breath: "A 19-year-old masseuse in a blind massage parlor."

The people inside the room: "..."

Father: "What conflict did you have with him?"

“I want to partner with him, no, I want to partner with the owner of a KTV to run a high-end SPA project. This Zhao Xiaochui is in charge of skills training.”

Father: "Have you investigated Zhao Xiaochui's background thoroughly?"

Zhao Wuyou was silent for a moment: "Outsider." At this moment, his cousin looked up from his phone and said softly: "Zhao Xiaochui, an orphan."

He's an insider in the system; he can easily get the information he wants by asking a colleague for help.

At this moment, the old man spoke up: "An orphan? Worry-free, your family is so wealthy and powerful, and you want to get involved with an orphan?"

“There’s something else going on here,” my cousin continued. “Chief Qi didn’t answer the phone, but he sent a message saying that the guy’s massage skills are very good, and the district bureau leaders will be asking him to provide services again tomorrow.”

Everyone: "..."

The old man's expression finally changed. He opened his mouth and sighed, "I hit him and he's in the hospital. The lawyer is negotiating compensation, but it's not going well."

My cousin stared wide-eyed at Zhao Wuyou: "So, he can't provide service tomorrow?"

What if the boss asks tomorrow why the service couldn't be provided...?

This time, Zhao Wuyou made a phone call without any hesitation.

"Xiao Li, get the cash ready, and make sure you have plenty."

"What? Xiao Li went in? What did he do?"

"They overturned the old man's tricycle? Where's Xiao Liu?"

"Little Liu also tore it up? What about Little Wang?"

Which elderly woman did he knock down?

"Fatou? Where's Fatou? I need a brother to bring some gifts and say hello. What? Where is he?"

Everyone has run away. If they don't run away soon, some young people with clean backgrounds will be killed by those old men and women.

They don't have any records, but the current situation is: the elderly people who lie down at the slightest touch don't negotiate or ask for money; instead, they want to get a medical examination first and then go through the proper procedures.

Helpless, Zhao Wuyou had no choice but to wake up the company cashier in the middle of the night to get the money, and then called his lawyer to withdraw the case and no longer pursue the responsibility of the KTV girls for assaulting him.

Finally, Zhao Wuyou picked up the bag of money, looked at his aunt and a group of relatives, and said with utmost sincerity, "This was my oversight. I apologize to everyone. I have done everything I should do. I will take the money to the hospital now."

"Wu You," the old man said, stopping his impatience, and asked slowly, "What exactly did you do? Think carefully about everything related to that boy."

Zhao Wuyou stopped and said helplessly, "Sir, can we resolve your troubles first? If the other party keeps pressing you, it's not appropriate for someone your age to stay there for a few days."

Driving an unlicensed or unregistered motor vehicle and causing an accident will result in vehicle impoundment and administrative detention of up to 15 days.

This is why he's so impatient; if the old man moves in, the whole family's reputation will be ruined.

"So I'm asking you, what exactly did you do?" The old man had experienced many ups and downs, so he could still calm down. The most important thing now was to find the core of the problem so that he could solve it quickly.

So what is the core?
The core issue is that this comprehensive revenge against relatives and friends from all walks of life is something that a young, outsider masseur could never accomplish.

Even more strangely, the troublemakers, fearing that their side wouldn't understand the situation, bluntly pointed the finger at Zhao Wuyou as the cause.

So what about the reserved nature of the Chinese people?

These people always like to use vague and ambiguous language to make others understand, but you're pointing it out so clearly, it makes us feel...

Very strange!
Moreover, it has now been confirmed that these people from various industries who are causing trouble for everyone do not know each other.

So the most impossible thing became possible, which is... that 19-year-old massage therapist from the 60-yuan blind massage parlor is the reason everyone is gathered here.

Having a goal is good. As long as someone is human and still lives in society, there's nothing that can't be discussed, even with enemies. This is the old man's life experience.

My life has come to this point through countless exchanges of interests; now it all comes down to what that child wants.

But the old man suddenly stopped; he remembered the child's expression.

The old man only ever saw two expressions on the child's face: when he was smiling and when he wasn't.

When he smiled, his blood-stained teeth were revealed, which frightened his great-grandson to tears; when he didn't smile, he was very calm, a destructive calm.

The old man recalled carefully and realized that he had only seen this expression twice in his life, and the result was not good either time!

The old man also drew life lessons from those two major events that had nothing to do with him:
Leave yourself an out!
