Chapter 86: Becoming Stronger
When Zhao Weiming asked Zhao Meir to find Du Heng's contact using the original number, the reply he received was that the phone number was no longer accessible.
Zhao Weiming hung up the phone and said to Zhang Nianzu, "I have already guessed the result. The news that you are the grandfather has spread among the clan members. It should be very convenient for Du Heng to find you. This means that he suddenly doesn't want to see you for some other reason. Don't worry, I will take care of finding Du Heng."
Zhang Nianzu asked curiously, "How did you find it?"
"Who has the best information? Taxi driver, when Du Heng approached you, why did he specifically ask Zhiyuan Rental Company to do it? Wasn't it because of this?" Zhao Weiming said with a bit of sadness, "Although Zhiyuan is no longer here."
"Then I'll wait for your letter." Zhang Nianzu had no choice but to try his luck.
When Zhao Weiming went out, he saw Li Changgui holding a cigarette in his mouth, so he helped him light the lighter. Li Changgui hurriedly took out the cigarette, then shook his head resolutely...
…
After Wu Biao and Lawyer Wang went to Zhang Shuxin's home that day, someone soon found out that Zhang Xiaoliang was attending the No. 1 Primary School in the city.
Then lawyer Wang immediately conveyed his mission to him , asking him to find someone to "give Zhang Xiaoliang a warning and let Zhang Shuxin know the consequences."
Wu Biao sat on the sofa in his home with his eyes closed. The matter was simple, but he didn't know where to start. After all, he was a well-known man in the underworld, Brother Biao, and he was not sure what to do when he went to cause trouble for a child.
At this time, Wu Xiaobiao came over cautiously and said with a flattering expression: "Dad, give me some money."
Wu Biao was furious when he saw his son. He was such a hooligan at such a young age. He tried his best to get him into the best primary school in the city, but this kid hung out with all kinds of bad people every day. But he had no choice. As his friends said, "This is our family tradition."
"What do you want the money for?" Wu Biao asked with a sullen face.
“Buy teaching materials…”
"Speak nicely."
"I've made an appointment with friends to go clubbing tonight... I can't always let them pay for it, right?"
Wu Biao glared at him, and Wu Xiaobiao subconsciously dodged back a little.
"By the way, which school are you in?"
"No. 1 Primary School in the city..."
Wu Biao stared and said, "I heard that you are the boss of your school?"
Wu Xiaobiao asked alertly: "Who told you this?"
Wu Biao snorted and said, "I won't beat you. I'll give you a task."
Wu Xiaobiao said with a bitter face: "What are you doing?"
"There's a third grader named Zhang Xiaoliang in your school. Go and tell him a few words for me..." Wu Biao hesitated for a moment and said, "Tell him to open his eyes."
Wu Xiaobiao immediately perked up: "I'm good at this. It's just scaring a kid. Do I need to teach him a lesson first?"
Wu Biao warned him, "Who told you to do it? Just ask him to pass on the message, and his father will know what to do after hearing it."
"Okay." Wu Xiaobiao stretched out his hand and said, "Dad, give me some money. You know how the world is now. What can you do without money?"
Wu Biao slapped a stack of money into Wu Xiaobiao's hand and said , "If you mess up this little thing, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"
"Just watch!"
…
When Zhang Xiaoliang finished his morning exercises, he felt that someone from the senior grades was pointing fingers at him, but he didn't take it to heart.
Children of the same age who lived far away either went to after-school care or had their parents pick them up at noon. Zhang Xiaoliang took the bus home every day. After school, he walked to the bus stop as usual. Three figures blocked his way. Zhang Xiaoliang walked to the side, and the three people moved over like shadows, continuing to block him.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Xiaoliang looked up and asked.
Among the people blocking him, the one in front looked about twelve or thirteen, but behind him were two teenagers about sixteen or seventeen. One of them had dyed green hair and wore an earring.
Wu Xiaobiao half hugged and half held Zhang Xiaoliang hostage with a fake smile on his face and pulled him to the corner of the road: "I want to say a few words to you."
Zhang Xiaoliang obediently took out the money in his pocket and showed it to me, saying, "That's all I have. Leave me some money for the train ticket and you can take the rest. But only this time."
Wu Xiaobiao was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "I don't want your money, I just want you to tell your father something - ask him to open his eyes."
Zhang Xiaoliang said: "Tell me more details."
Wu Xiaobiao said, "My dad and your dad are half colleagues. He should give an answer to the matter I asked him to consider a few days ago. I don't know the rest. You just need to convey my message."
The green-haired guy behind Wu Xiaobiao shouted, "To put it bluntly, tell your dad to do whatever he wants you to do. You have to walk through here every day after school, right? We'll be waiting for you here in the afternoon. If your dad isn't smart, you won't be able to escape!"
Wu Xiaobiao said: "Have you seen my brother? He's a gangster. He stabbed someone and was sent to a juvenile detention center a few years ago. You don't want to have more holes in your body, do you?" He is the so-called boss in the elementary school, who just knows a few more bad boys in society. A gangster of Green Hair's status is more than enough to bluff students.
Green Hair's face was full of pride, but he said: "Why are you telling him this? It would be bad if it frightened the children."
Zhang Xiaoliang said: "Oh."
Wu Xiaobiao didn't get the timid assurance he expected, and asked in astonishment, "What do you mean by oh?"
Zhang Xiaoliang said, "I know what I mean - I'm leaving now." Then he left without looking back...
Green Hair and another thug were caught in the act. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He said to Wu Xiaobiao, "Is this guy a fool?"
Wu Xiaobiao was also stunned and said: "It should be... not possible?"
…
When Zhang Xiaoliang returned home, Zhang Shuxin had already ordered takeout. He was a good cook, but he hadn't cooked for a while. Zhang Xiaoliang changed his shoes and washed his hands, then sat down at the table and the father and son began to eat. The atmosphere was a little silent. Zhang Shuxin was not good at expressing himself. Since he adopted the child, he tried his best to treat him better, but Zhang Xiaoliang was very self-reliant and he didn't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. This made Zhang Shuxin a little at a loss, not knowing how to express his concern.
After a while, Zhang Xiaoliang suddenly asked, "Dad, has your work been going well recently?"
Zhang Shuxin laughed and said, "Why are you asking this?"
"Just showing concern."
"It's going well. There's a big project that's going to be put up for bidding soon. By the way, once this project is launched, I might even have less time to go home. You'll have to take care of yourself then."
"That's good. I understand."
After finishing the meal, Zhang Xiaoliang put all the dishes into the dishwasher and said to Zhang Shuxin, "I'm leaving early today."
"Going to school so early?"
"Well, make a blackboard newspaper."
"Okay, then be careful on the road."
Zhang Xiaoliang left the community, took a bus to a place, got off, walked a few hundred meters, and turned into Changsheng Street.
Zhang Nianzu's auto repair shop got a big job today. A novice driver drove his car into the roadside green belt, and the entire front face was crooked, the bumper was gone, and the engine was sprayed with water. This was a good teaching opportunity. From sheet metal to painting, Ah San and Ah Si could all learn everything, so the three of them were busy.
Zhang Xiaoliang walked to the front of the broken car. The three people still had their faces buried in the hood. He did not disturb them while they were working, but sat upright on a small stool.
Zhang Nianzu looked up inadvertently and found someone sitting there. He asked in surprise, "Xiaoliang, why are you here if you're not in school?"
Zhang Xiaoliang asked seriously: "Brother Nianzu, how can I become stronger?"
