As Han Jiajia’s cara flipped around, the five people also saw the situation on her end. Behind Han Jiajia was a large conference room where a group of police officers was seated. The officers all looked up in unison at Han Jiajia’s cara.
This made the five of them swallow hard.
They had originally thought Liu Ergou was bluffing, but it turned out he was for real—and deadly serious.
Suddenly, the five of them didn’t dare say another word, shrinking back like frightened quails.
Han Jiajia then took out a copy of the criminal code and read it aloud to them.
After finishing, she said coldly, "If you still don’t believe after all that, then the five of you are welco to test it out and see if you end up in prison."
"I assure you, I will personally co to pick you up!"
With that said, Han Jiajia hung up the phone without another mont’s hesitation.
anwhile, Liu Ergou sat across from the five, watching them with a triumphant look on his face.
"Well? Do you still think I, Liu Ergou, was deceiving you?" he asked with a smile. "If you don’t believe it, you can give it a try. Maybe nothing will happen, right?"
Hearing Liu Ergou’s taunt, the five people sitting opposite him snorted coldly, stood up in unison, and started to leave.
However, as they stepped out of the courtyard, Yang i’s aunt suddenly spun around and said viciously to Liu Ergou, "I’m telling you! Don’t think this is over!"
"This isn’t finished! You just wait, I’ll—"
Yang i’s aunt had not yet finished speaking when Liu Ergou cut her off.
"Tch, still daring to threaten !" he scoffed. "That’s another piece of evidence. Keep it up. I’m eager to see how long it takes for you to earn yourself a life sentence!"
The ntion of a life sentence imdiately silenced Yang i’s aunt. She couldn’t utter another word and left dejectedly.
Only after the five of them had disappeared from sight did Liu Ergou firmly shut the main gate and return to the living room.
As soon as he entered, Feng Chunling and Yang i both rushed into his arms.
"Oh, Ergou, thank goodness you were here today!" Feng Chunling sobbed. "If you hadn’t been here, I don’t know what I would have done!"
Yang i chid in, "Exactly! Brother Ergou, you were so impressive today! Just a few words and you left them speechless. Let’s see if they ever dare to co back!"
Looking at the two won in his arms, Liu Ergou chuckled. "Don’t just thank with words. You two have to show so real appreciation, right?"
Feng Chunling and Yang i clearly understood what he ant. Together, they grabbed his arms and began pulling him toward the bedroom, ready to thank him properly.
However, just as Liu Ergou took a step, his phone rang.
He pulled it out and saw that the caller was none other than Lu Shuangyue.
Puzzled, Liu Ergou answered the phone. As soon as the call connected, Lu Shuangyue’s voice burst through.
"Liu Ergou, where did you go?"
"Hurry back and help us move! We won can’t manage this on our own! Get back here!"
"Honestly, you disappear without a trace in the blink of an eye! Hurry back!"
Hearing her words, Liu Ergou quickly agreed and hung up.
Feng Chunling and Yang i, standing beside him, had naturally overheard Lu Shuangyue. They didn’t try too hard to make him stay; instead, they motioned for him to hurry and take care of his business. This made Liu Ergou feel a little embarrassed.
"Heh heh, well, Auntie, Yang i, sothing’s co up today. Just you wait, I’ll co find you when I have so free ti!"
With that, Liu Ergou turned and left, heading ho to help with the move.
There wasn’t much in Xu Yulan’s room, just so clothes and a few appliances. After tossing the clothes into the van, Liu Ergou thought for a mont and decided to throw away all the old, worn-out furniture.
He then said to Li Dajiang, who was driving, "Dajiang, I have a few instructions for you and the crew."
"Got it, Brother Ergou!" Li Dajiang nodded imdiately. "Just tell what you need!"
"After the house is renovated," Liu Ergou began, "I want you to take the guys and clean up the village roads a bit. The road repair crew is coming in a couple of days. They’re officially here to pave the road from the village to the town, but I figured we might as well have them fix up the roads inside the village while they’re at it. It should be easy enough to do on the side. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
"No problem at all, Brother Ergou!" Li Dajiang assured him. "Leave it to !"
With that, Li Dajiang prepared to drive off. But before the van started, he seed to rember sothing and suddenly turned back to Liu Ergou. "Oh, right, Brother Ergou, I almost forgot to tell you. Over at the plantation, Hu Jing told she had to go to the city for sothing, apparently about the corn she’s growing. It didn’t seem like a big deal at the ti, but she left four or five days ago and still hasn’t returned. That’s a bit long, so I thought I should let you know."
Hearing this, Liu Ergou raised his eyebrows in surprise. He hadn’t known about Hu Jing’s trip.
It looks like I’ll have to find ti to call her. Being gone for four or five days is quite a while.
Thinking this, Liu Ergou nodded. "Okay, I got it, Dajiang. You can go now!"
Only then did Li Dajiang start the van and drive away.
Liu Ergou, anwhile, leisurely walked toward his new ho with his five won. The new house wasn’t too far from his current place, and the six of them arrived after a walk of just over ten minutes.
Upon arriving, Liu Ergou raised his eyebrows in pleasant surprise. His new ho was quite spacious, and the house itself was a good size.
By this ti, Li Dajiang and his crew had already finished tidying up and were just driving away.
Then, Liu Ergou led the five won into the house. As soon as he entered, he saw a very rare object: a heated kang.
He was very surprised, as a heated kang like this was a rare sight in his part of the country. He imdiately walked over and began examining it from all angles.
The five won with him had also clearly never seen one before and didn’t know what it was. After a mont of observation, Mi Xiaoying asked curiously, "Ergou, what is this? Why is it so hard to the touch? It looks kind of like a bed, but beds aren’t made of concrete!"
