29. The Scumbag of the 1990s (First Update)
Liu Wen and the others returned to school in a daze.
They put Huang Miao in the infirmary and fell silent.
Liu Wen was wrong about what happened today. Yi Zhilan's boyfriend not only did not get angry, but also did not ask them to pay for the car repair. He did the right thing.
But Liu Wen couldn't get over it.
The shame of being slapped in the face in public made him hate the handsome man, and also hated Huang Miao who kept saying that Yi Zhilan's boyfriend had no money.
If it weren't for Huang Miao's words, would he have lost such a big person?
Liu Wen looked up and saw the strange eyes of the students around him. His eyes flashed with his mind, and he said stiffly: "I'm leaving first."
From that day on, every time Liu Wen walked on campus, he felt that people around him were laughing at him. He didn't chase Yi Zhilan like before. With one less person lingering behind him, Yi Zhilan smiled a lot more.
She still read books every day, went out to help her lover cook in the afternoon, and supervised him to finish eating. Everything was beautiful.
Except Huang Miao, who seemed to have changed from that day on.
Huang Miao fainted because of anger, and spent a lot of money on buying medicine in the infirmary. Later, because a few people on that day spread the news, she was angry and ashamed, and she didn't dare to go out except for going to class.
From time to time, Yi Zhilan could still see her staring at herself and An Qin with resentful eyes.
With such a person staring at her from behind, it would be a lie to say that she didn't feel scared. In addition, her belly had begun to grow slowly, so she simply applied for a leave of absence.
It was not so easy to apply for a leave of absence, but Wei Mingyan went to talk to the principal for a few words, and Yi Zhilan successfully got the application.
Of course, I had to tell my family when I took a leave of absence to take care of the baby.
It had been three months since I went home last time. Although I called from time to time, Yi Zhilan still missed home. Therefore, when Wei Mingyan proposed to go home to visit, she immediately went to pack her things happily.
Unexpectedly, before they told Uncle Yi and Aunt Yi that they were going home, they received a call for help from Old Chen.
***
Since Wei Mingyan gave Old Chen a dragon-head crutch, he loved to wander around even more. One day, while he was wandering around, Aunt Yi suddenly came to the field to call him, saying that his daughter-in-law called.
Since the Yi family installed a telephone, now anyone in the village who wants to call their relatives working outside can go to his house. Wei Mingyan heard about it and directly said that the villagers also watched him grow up, and they can call if they want in the future, and he will pay for the phone bill.
Aunt Yi told the villagers this with pride. At this time, a person who knows how to repay kindness is precious, not to mention that he is a prodigal son who has returned.
If a good person does a bad thing, he will be despised by everyone, while if a bad person does a good thing, he will be praised greatly.
Wei Mingyan, who used to be a scoundrel, is now the latter. If there were people who said sour things in the village before, now when they mention Wei Mingyan, they all praise him.
The villagers are not the kind of people who like to take advantage of others. Every time they call, they try to be brief and will leave some eggs and vegetables as rewards.
On this day, the call was from Old Chen's daughter-in-law. Aunt Yi didn't have the usual smile on her face. She noticed something was wrong when she answered the phone, because Old Chen's daughter-in-law cried and asked him to let Old Chen answer the phone.
His daughter-in-law is famous for her good temper in the village. The couple went out to work together. It is said that Old Chen's son went to the construction site to build houses for people, and she worked in a textile factory. In addition to their own food and drink, the two of them sent money home every month, which allowed Old Chen to have a leisurely old age.
When Old Chen received the call, he learned that his son had fallen from the construction site and had broken his leg. The boss refused to admit the responsibility and did not even pay the wages owed to him. His son wanted to seek justice, but he was beaten up by him and his men. His leg, which had almost recovered, was broken again. Now the wound was festering, and there was little money left in the family. His daughter-in-law had no choice but to call home for help.
Old Chen himself had broken his leg, so how could he not know the pain? He almost fainted after hearing this.
He hurriedly sent all the money in the family over. Hearing his son's weak voice and his daughter-in-law's crying on the phone, his heart was broken.
If it was just like this, it would be fine. But the grandson came back from the town on vacation. As soon as he entered the village, he heard that his parents were bullied. He was so angry that he rushed out of the house, saying that he wanted to avenge his father.
The teenager ran fast, and Old Chen and Aunt Chen were unable to stop him. They watched the child run away. They were anxious and angry. The neighbors helped to catch up, but when they came back, they said that the child got on the car and went to the city.
This child used to go to the city to see his parents during holidays. He knew the way to the city very well, and nothing would happen on the way, but Old Chen was afraid that he would anger those people and break his legs like he did to his father.
The old couple were so old and had no relatives. Seeing his wife, who had been with him for most of his life, sitting on the ground and crying, Old Chen made a decision and went to the Yi family with a cane.
"Uncle, don't worry, I will go to find Beibei right now. You stay at home and I promise to bring Beibei back safely."
Wei Mingyan hung up the phone with a serious expression. Seeing the girl next to him looking at him curiously and worriedly, he smiled comfortingly, "It's okay, something happened to Chen Bei."
Yi Zhilan knew that Chen Bei was the grandson of old Chen. He was in junior high school and went to school in their town. But what could happen to such a young child?
Wei Mingyan explained the matter in a few words, "Now I have to go to City B. Fortunately, it is next door. I will be back tonight."
He said, and was about to leave, but his sleeve was pulled by the girl.
Yi Zhilan looked at her lover with a worried look, and he was about to say something.
Those people broke the legs of Uncle Chen's son. How could she let Mingyan go alone?
"Don't worry, I'll go to the company and call a few guys, it will be fine."
The man saw what the girl was worried about at a glance. He gently touched Yi Zhilan's hair, raised the corners of his mouth, and his expression showed a bit of ruffian, "Just a few gangsters, don't forget what your husband did before."
Hearing him call himself her husband, Yi Zhilan blushed, but was still worried. She recalled the wound on his face when he fought with Brother Long, and reminded him, "Try not to have any physical contact with those people. If it doesn't work, call the police, don't do it yourself."
"Don't worry!" Wei Mingyan showed his signature gentle smile, "I will talk to them properly."
Yi Zhilan was still worried, but she said that, she had heard from her lover how much Uncle Chen took care of him when he was a child. In this situation, how could she not help, so she could only watch the man leave with the car keys reluctantly.
Wei Mingyan left with a doting smile, drove directly to the company, took off his coat, hung it on his shoulders, and went straight to the security captain.
"Call out 20 people who can fight for me. Today is considered a business trip, and their salary will be increased fivefold."
The greeting in the captain's throat was blocked before he could say it. He looked at the young boss in front of him blankly, "Boss Wei, what do you want?"
Wei Mingyan smiled at him, his voice gentle, "Be reasonable."
"By the way, let them wear the clothes I ordered a few days ago, and bring the sticks issued by the company."
After that, the man took out his mobile phone, "Send me a truck, the bigger the better."
Until Wei Mingyan went upstairs while talking on the phone, the captain of the security team was still stunned. Thinking of the domineering clothes that looked like explosion-proof suits when he was sent to the company a few days ago, and thinking of the electric sticks, he swallowed his saliva.
Boss Wei, he is going to be furious.
But the salary will be increased fivefold...
Five times the salary...
The captain of the security team counted for a long time before concluding that he must be one of the twenty people!

Wang Zhaodi entered the ward with red eyes, her voice still choked, and she whispered, "Dad said he asked Mingyan next door for help, and he will probably be here soon."
Chen Jianguo's forehead was sweating from the pain. He sighed and his face was full of dejection after hearing his wife's words, "He came with good intentions, but it probably won't be of much use."
Looking at his immobile right leg, he smiled bitterly, "Boss Yang is a gangster. Even if Mingyan made some money, he is just a businessman after all. Why bother with others?"
In the past few months, he has also heard a lot of family affairs from his parents. The most talked about thing is that the gangster has made a lot of money, and his old parents have also benefited from it. They usually send a gift to his family, and treat him as a proper relative.
Chen Jianguo was grateful in his heart, and he became closer to this gangster neighbor who used to stay away from him, and he didn't want this good neighbor to get into trouble.
"Or... forget it..."
His face showed some old age, his eyes were full of helplessness towards life, "I'll go home to recuperate first, I can't beat my leg and then change jobs."
"Forget it, how to forget it?" Wang Zhaodi looked at the gauze wrapped around her husband's leg, tears slid down her face, sobbing, "That's your hard-earned money for a year, and this leg, how can you forget it like this..."
Chen Jianguo hung his head, never felt like a useless person like this moment.
He was sad, the door was pushed open roughly, and the middle-aged bald man with a big belly sneered and pushed a bruised boy in.
"Beibei!!"
The couple were shocked, and after seeing the injuries on his body, they became heartbroken again.
"I said you two are quite capable, letting a child come to settle accounts with me, look at the injuries on my face."
This person was Boss Yang of Chen Jianguo's construction site. He didn't look at Chen Bei who was glaring at him, but set his eyes on Chen Jianguo.
"Chen Jianguo, your son hurt me. Either you pay me or let me beat you up again. It's your choice."
"You bastards! You bullied my dad and you will be punished!"
The teenager ignored the painful wounds on his body and rushed forward with red eyes. Wang Zhaodi quickly hugged her son, tears streaming down her face, "Don't go over there, don't go over there, Beibei."
Boss Yang looked at the scene in front of him, took out a cigarette, lit it and said sarcastically, "Kid, you hit me, I hit your dad, this is retribution, understand?"
"You're talking nonsense, I didn't hit you at all! You're lying!"
The bald man smiled triumphantly and put the cigarette in his mouth, "I'm just lying to you again...Ah!!!"
He stumbled and fell to the ground, looking back angrily, "Who kicked me!"
Wei Mingyan was wearing a suit with a gentle smile on his face, "Me."
"You dare to kick me, you're tired of living, you..."
Boss Yang was just making some harsh remarks when he saw a security guard, two security guards, three security guards coming out from behind the handsome man... In the end, the ward was full of security guards wearing protective clothing and holding sticks.
He silently swallowed the rest of his words.
Wei Mingyan looked at one of the thugs brought by Boss Yang, raised his eyebrows, and smiled, "Oh, Brother Long, what a coincidence."
Seeing that he was hiding behind other thugs but was still discovered, Brother Long's face turned green.
No matter where he goes, he can run into this plague god!
