Chapter 212: Backing

Chapter 212: Backing

Translator: Lonelytree

Zeng Yunbing was still sound asleep at home when he suddenly received a call from the retired emperor. Zeng Yunbing shivered and immediately got out of bed. He brushed his teeth and did not even wash his face. In his hurry, he broke a teacup.

He didn’t bother to tidy up and only shouted to his son in the room, “Son, get up and tidy up. Your Grandfather is looking for me. I have to rush over.”

Zeng Yaozu had been driving all night yesterday and didn’t go back to bed until three or four o’clock.

He was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a loud noise. Then, he heard his father order him to tidy up something. When he heard his father say his grandfather was looking for his father, Zeng Yaozu was shocked. His grandfather usually got up early in the morning and went for a walk. If it weren’t for something serious, Grandfather Zeng wouldn’t call his family.

Out of concern for his grandfather, Zeng Yaozu immediately got up and shouted at his father, “Dad, wait for me. I’m coming with you.” He ran out without even brushing his teeth.

Zeng Yunbing urged, “Hurry up. I don’t know what’s wrong with your grandfather. He sounds so angry. We need to be there as soon as possible.”

As soon as Zeng Yaozu got in the car, Zeng Yunbing drove away.

When they arrived at Sunshine Road, they saw many people crowding around the entrance of De Wang Supermarket. Loud shouts could be heard from time to time.

Zeng Yaozu frowned and asked curiously, “Dad, Grandpa said he’s here? What happened?”

Zeng Yunbing stopped the car and said to his son, “Find a place to park. I’ll go and take a look!”

Then, he ran away.

Zeng Yaozu took over the driver’s seat and parked the car. When he got out, he saw a familiar car parked beside him.

“Wait, isn’t this Zhang San’s car?” Zeng Yaozu was confused. “Why is their car parked here? Are they here too?” Then, he widened his eyes and said, “Wait. Are they the ones causing Grandpa trouble?” He ran off quickly.

Zeng Yunbing squeezed into the crowd with great difficulty. When he found his father, he panted and said, “Dad, I’m here. What’s so urgent?”

“Chief Zeng!”

Section Chief Qin had Lei Zhenhu use 500 RMB to get rid of the country bumpkins. He promised they would take revenge in the future.

However, Zeng Yunbing suddenly appeared. When he greeted his superior, Section Chief Qin immediately regretted it. Zeng Yunbing saw him, and he couldn’t retreat soundlessly anymore. He could only hope that the country bumpkins would take the money and leave.

Otherwise, the matter might get exposed before Zeng Yanbing. Section Chief Qin had two options: it was to make Xiao Xinxin leave or to make Zeng Yunbing leave.

Section Chief Qin gave Lei Zhenhu and Zhang San a look.

Lei Zhenhu and Zhang San were sworn brothers. They had worked with Qin Fufa many times before. They knew each other well. Therefore, when they caught Qin Fufa’s look, they immediately understood what to do.

Their secret dealings had been kept a secret from Zeng Yunbang.

Qin Fufa smiled and said respectfully to his superior, “Director Zeng, why are you here so early in the morning?”

Zeng Yunbing saw Qin Fufa and frowned. He asked sharply, “Chief Qin, why are you here so early in the morning? What are you doing?”

Lei Zhenhu took out 500 and handed it to Xiao Xinxin. She didn’t take it. Lei Zhenhu lowered his head and warned Xiao Xinxin in a low voice, “Xiao Xinxin, you have to take this money. If you don’t, we will settle the score after these people are gone!”

Xiao Xinxin’s face turned pale, and she looked especially frightened and uneasy.

Zeng Yunbing saw this.

Qin Fufa immediately laughed and explained, “Chief Zeng, this is nothing. This little girl complained about Boss Lei for giving her a low salary. However, she didn’t know that it was because she had made many mistakes and Boss Lei was already being very kind to give her even some money. Why are people so dishonest these days? They are clearly in the wrong, so how can they blame others? Ouch!” Qin Fufa fell to the ground, and he grimaced in pain.

He glared at Grandpa Zeng. “You old fart, how dare you kick me? Do you think I won’t hit you? If you anger me, I’ll get my people to…”

When he scolded Grandpa Zeng, Qin Fufa didn’t notice Director Zeng’s face was getting gloomier. Zeng Yunbing asked sharply, “Tell me, what are you going to do to my father?”

“What…” Qin Fufa was in a daze. He asked in a daze. “Father? Director Zeng, this… This old man is your father?”

Zeng Yunbing snorted and said, “What do you think? Answer me, what do you want to do with my dad?”

Grandpa Zeng pointed at Zeng Yunbing and warned him, “Zeng Yunbing, I’m telling you, if I find out you’ve been colluding with these worms to cheat the public, I will break your legs! I will have your post taken away from you!”

Zeng Yunbing, “…”

What did Qin Fufa do to make his father so angry?

A dark light flashed in his eyes.

Zeng Yunbing immediately comforted his father. “Dad, don’t you know the kind of person your son is? How would I collude with them? I’ll be a good official who serves the people!”

Grandpa Zeng nodded in satisfaction and said, “That’s more like it.” But then he reacted and said angrily, “Wait, that’s wrong too. Even if you’re a good official, you do not lead a good team! Since your subordinates are horrible people, then you have to take responsibility too!” He pointed at Qin Fufa, who was still sitting on the ground.

Zeng Yunbing, “…”

‘Dad, what are you talking about? How is the man’s fault mine?’

“Father, what’s going on?” Zeng Yunbing was not stupid. He quickly knew that something must have happened.

Grandpa Zeng did not say anything to his son. Instead, he turned to Xiao Lingyu. “Girl, give me your recording pen. I’ll help you hand it directly to the Labor Bureau’s Director.”

“…” Xiao Lingyu.

Then, she silently handed the recording pen to Grandpa Zeng. Grandpa Zeng slammed it in Zeng Yunbing’s hand. “Hmph! Listen to this, and you’ll see what’s going on.”

Gu Qingjiao was nervous when she saw the recording pen. And the pen was going into the hands of the Labor Bureau’s Director. This was bad!

Gu Qingjiao’s face was pale, and she felt uneasy.

She nervously ordered Zhang San and Zhao Si, “San ‘Er, Si ‘Er, grab the recording pen. Quick!”

Zhang San, Zhao Si, Qin Fufa, and Lei Zhenhu were dumbfounded when they saw the recording pen. They were not there when Gu Qingjiao’s words were recorded.

“We’ll see who dares to do that!” Grandpa Zeng took a stance to guard against Zhang San, Zhao Si, and the others.

Zhang San, Zhao Si, and the others were confused. However, they were not fools. The old man before them was the father of their Brother Qin’s boss. How could they offend him?

By then, Zeng Yunbing had already started listening to the recording. It was a delicious recording.

It started when Auntie Zhou came to the supermarket.

“Everyone, please help a poor woman!”

“Everyone, the boss of this supermarket is black-hearted and vicious. They do not treat their employees as human beings and instead work them like animals. At first, they promised their employees 1000 RMB a month, but the employees would only get around 500 RMB!”

…

“Who are you?”

“Who am I? I’m the younger brother of your employee, Xiao Xinxin! She was chased out yesterday night!”

“And I thought we were in the company of some big shot. So you’re that bitch’s younger brother. In that case, you have to be a country bumpkin too. What do you think you can do to me?”

“Yes, you’re right! I am her boss, so I decide how much salary she will get. If you’re that capable, go and sue me. She hasn’t even signed the labor contract. So let’s see how you’d sue me. As long as I insist that she’s not my employee, what can you do to me?”

“So what if you have testimonies that Xiao Xinxin is my employee? Without something tangible on paper, what can you do to me? If you want to sue me, go ahead? Do you think I’m afraid of you? Let me tell you. I have friends in the Commerce Bureau and Labor Bureau. We’ll see how you can touch me!”

…

The director’s face darkened. His sharp eyes glared fiercely at Qin Fufa, who was wiping his sweat away.

Qin Fufa wiped the cold sweat from his forehead while cursing Lei Zhenhu and his wife internally. ‘These two are trying to kill me. They have created such a big mess and want me to come to clean up! I’m going to die because of them!’

Then, he heard Gu Qingjiao threaten Director Zeng’s father, and his face blanched.

“Old Man, don’t push your luck. Do you really think I won’t dare to do anything to You? If you anger me, I’ll get my people to send you into a coffin!”

“Old Man, what does my shop’s business have to do with you? If you continue to mind my business, I’ll really have someone come to break your bones!”

…

While everyone was quietly listening to the recording, Zhao Si was kicked from behind, and he fell.

“Who did this?” Wang Wu demanded angrily.

Zeng Yaozu put his hands in his pockets and walked out slowly. He said, “It’s me. Do you have any problem?”

Wang Wu wiped his sweat and said, “Of course not. Brother Zeng, why are you here?”

Zeng Yaozu became angry immediately. He pointed at Zhang San, Zhao Si, and the others and scolded, “Zhang San, Zhao Si, you guys really have guts. You dare to curse and threaten my grandfather?”

“Your grandfather?” Zhang San and the others looked at Zeng Yaozu in confusion and then at the old man. They immediately understood.

Zhang San and the others immediately apologized, “Brother Zeng, we’re sorry. We really didn’t know that this old man was your grandfather. If we knew, we wouldn’t dare to touch him.”

Zeng Yaozu frowned and said, “So, if the senior weren’t my grandfather, you’d still beat him up? Zhang San, Zhao Si, you guys are getting more and more courageous. You dare to go after old people and pregnant women. Aren’t you afraid of karma?”

To be fair, they had already found karma.

Lei Zhenhu and his wife panicked. They tried to figure out what to do.

At that moment, a few police officers came. “Who called the police?”

Xiao Xinxin immediately said, “Police officers, it was me. I called the police!”

Lei Zhenhu and Gu Qingjiao immediately had a bad premonition.

They heard Xiao Xinxin say, “Officer, De Wang Supermarket is selling expired food and illegal imprisoning people against their free will. You need to arrest them.”

“Bullshit!” Gu Qingjiao said angrily and anxiously, “Xiao Xinxin, I know you want to take revenge on us, so you’re maliciously fabricating the truth. I’m going to sue you for slander.”

Gu Qingjiao turned around and said to a few police officers, “Police officers, please don’t believe her.

“We’re all decent business people. We’ve never sold expired food or illegally imprisoned anyone.

“This girl used to be my employee. She didn’t do a good job, so I deducted her salary. She must hate me because of it. Now, she’s trying to take revenge. Please don’t believe her.”

At this point, she paused for a moment before saying, “Division Leader Wang Yongkang knows my husband and me. We’re his friends. He’s such a wonderful police officer. Why would he be friends with us if we’re criminals, right?”

Everyone, “…”

No wonder the woman was so unreasonable. She had backing in the police force too. However, how could she gloat about her connection with an officer in public? Was there something wrong with her brain? Was she trying to show off or dig her own grave?

“You must be Officer Li.” Xiao Lingyu walked over and asked.

When Officer Li saw Xiao Lingyu, his expression immediately changed. He became respectful!

“Miss Xiao!” Officer Li called out in surprise, then asked, “Miss Xiao, why are you here?”

Xiao Lingyu said, “I’m Xiao Xinxin’s sister. She called the police.”

“Oh.” Officer Li nodded.

“Officer Li, how is Chief Wang doing recently?”

Everyone, “…”

Was this a competition to see who had the bigger backing?
