This simple sentence was like a heavy hammer hitting Pei Huazhang's heart. His legs trembled and he sat on the ground, unable to hide the regret on his face.
He hadn't even warmed his seat yet, and he was already removed from his position. It was really frustrating.
Pei Huazhang wasn't the only one who was shocked, but his son, Pei Yuanyi, was also shocked. It was the same phone call, but why was there such a big difference?
Even if he found a mysterious expert from the Dragon Group, he couldn't withstand a single blow from this young man. His father was able to cover the sky with one hand, but a phone call from that young man made his father pee in fear.
However, Pei Yuanyi wasn't stupid. When he was in the car, he heard the Chief's call, but he didn't tell his father because of his pride. Who knew that the worst situation still happened.
"Sigh, you're really unlucky to have such a strange son. He knew that Chief No.1 talked to me on the phone, but he still asked you to help him. Isn't he trying to stir up trouble?" I shook my head and said.
Actually, in the eyes of my parents and even Liu Jie, what I did was like hitting a rock with an egg. It should be known that Chief No.1 was a member of the royal family, and he was now in a high position. He was like an unshakable mountain.
However, a simple phone call scared him out of his wits and made him regret it. Just as they were puzzled, I said the name of Chief No.1. They were stunned at first, but then they seemed to realize something and started to mutter to themselves. Then, they were stunned again, and their faces were full of shock.
"What? Chief No.1!?"
Even my confidante, who knew me the best, didn't know when I had gotten to know the First Chief. This news was too shocking.
But then again, it wasn't a big deal if we just got to know each other. After all, I was a rare genius in Nan Yun. Not only that, but looking at the current situation, at least Chief No.1 helped me scold Pei Huazhang. In other words, in the eyes of Chief No.1, I was no less important than Pei Huazhang …
Although my parents were villagers, they knew the ways of the world. When they understood this, they couldn't calm down for a long time. They were so excited that they couldn't help but show a proud expression. This was definitely more glorious than getting into a key university!
There was no doubt that if their son was a traitor, the No. 1 Chief would never do this. It seemed that this was indeed a misunderstanding.
To be honest, when I saw my parents' expressions, I felt very proud. I had been hiding it from them because I had my own considerations. Now that they knew about it by chance, I felt relieved. It seemed that they didn't oppose me pursuing the path of martial arts.
I really didn't expect that my parents were actually quite open-minded. It's just that I always thought that they were old-fashioned. Even so, I still decided that when I have time in the future, I will strive to rely on myself to enter a good university. After all, this was my childhood dream.
After hearing my ridicule, Pei Huazhang glared at his son with a sinister expression. He stood up, walked over, and slapped him without saying a word. Then, he started hammering him. No matter how Pei Yuanyi begged for mercy, Pei Huazhang turned a deaf ear to him. After a while, that bastard's face was swollen. Pei Huazhang smiled apologetically at me.
"Brother Zhuang Feng, what do you think about this?"
"It's not bad. But you hit him a little too hard. If I didn't know better, I would have thought that you picked up your son from the streets!" I teased him.
He smiled awkwardly and braced himself to ask, "Can you show mercy on this matter?"
His sincere attitude surprised everyone again. However, after thinking about the phone call just now, it wasn't strange at all. He had such a background!
"No."
Despite Pei Huazhang's submissive tone, he couldn't change my mind. This kind of person wasn't suitable to be the commander of a military region. He came to Kun City for no reason. I didn't know if it was because he wanted to build a good relationship with the officials. Moreover, I could vaguely feel that he wasn't someone easy to deal with.
I had just talked to the No. 1 Chief, and he told me about Pei Huazhang's second identity. He was Old Pei's younger brother. It seemed to explain some things. Before this, I had asked Old Luo to pay attention. If the walls had ears, Old Pei would be the biggest suspect. He took advantage of Shangguan Guoqiang's criticism to push his own family member to the top.
After experiencing so much, I was certain that I would rather be a chess piece than a pawn. Otherwise, I would be in a passive position and have to face all kinds of dangers.
Pei Huazhang's face twitched. He asked in a low voice, "Zhuang Feng, do you really have to be so ruthless?"
"That's right. If I hadn't come back in time, you and your son would have bullied my parents. Your son would have even had improper thoughts. Why should I show mercy?" I said disapprovingly.
"Okay, okay, okay. Don't regret it!" He said fiercely.
I wasn't afraid of his threat.
Not long after, the father and son left. The members of the Dragon Group came to apologize to me. They were afraid that I would say bad things about them in front of Hong Zhanhui. If that happened, they would be completely ruined. However, I wasn't that narrow-minded. I just told them not to help the evildoer and take care of themselves. Then, I let them go.
At this time, under the instigation of Little Cherry and the others, Liu Jie plucked up her courage and took the initiative to greet my parents.
"Hello, Uncle and Auntie. I am Liu Jie. I am Ge Xiao Feng's classmate." Her face revealed a blush.
"Aiya, Liu Jie. Are you the young lady who talked to me on the phone last time?"
My mother's eyes lit up. Normally, she would address my father as A. However, she couldn't be so old-fashioned in front of her future daughters-in-law.
"That's right. That's me. Auntie's memory is too good!
Originally, I wanted to go back with Ge Xiao Feng to visit during Chinese New Year. I didn't think that it would be brought forward. However, an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. "Liu Jie immediately praised and held my mother's arm.
"This young lady is so beautiful and refined. She is just like a fairy in a painting. How is she ugly!" My mother shook her head and gave a rather high evaluation.
