Chapter 64 – Don’t Mess Around
Seeing the recklessness of this young Xu, Nie Zhenbang’s brow creased. Although at this moment he had Long and Tiger with him, and he himself wouldn’t be facing any substantial harm. However, in this world, it’s not the common dangers but the unexpected ones that one fears.
Immediately, Nie Zhenbang murmured, “Kun, this kid seems to have a solid backing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to act so outrageously in Eguna City. You should call Liang Ligui right away and inform him about our situation. And see if he has anyone in Eguna.”
Though turning to Yuan Xinghua could also help resolve such a troublesome situation, considering the defense zones, this location fell under the jurisdiction of the 21st Border Defense Army. Going to Yuan Xinghua would inevitably involve a layer of communication and although things can be resolved, it would indebt Yuan Xinghua to someone else. In this world, emotional debts are easy to accumulate but hard to repay.
Thus, Nie Zhenbang did not consider Yuan Xinghua’s side at this moment. Instead, he focused on Governor Liang of Caoyuan province. After the last incident, Deputy Secretary Liang rushed to Jingcheng the next day. After meeting with the old man and Deputy Prime Minister Huang, Liang was satisfactorily appointed as the official Secretary. Naturally, at this moment, Governor Liang was sort of a Nie family faction’s man. Within the jurisdiction of Caoyuan Province, this was a relationship that should not be wasted.
In the meantime, at the command of this young Xu, a group of people had already rushed forward. Long and Tiger stepped up to the forefront. Looking at these people, Long uttered in a deep voice, “Tiger, don’t hold back against anyone who dares attack the young master!”
At this moment, in the chaos, no one noticed Liu Kun slipping away. He found a public phone, then immediately dialed Liang Ligui’s home.
After two rings, as soon the call connected, Liu Kun hastily said, “May I ask, is
Liang Ligui home? I’m his friend, Liu Kun!”
From the other end, the excited voice of a woman replied, “Kun, it’s been many years. I’ve heard from Gifted Liang that his father’s matter was greatly helped due to your introduction. Do you still remember me, auntie?”
At this time, Liu Kun had no patience for idle talk. He quickly replied, “Auntie, I do remember you. I have an important matter to discuss with Gifted Liang.
Please quickly let him answer.”
On his end, Liang Ligui had just gotten up. Recently Governor Liang was enjoying a period of success. Thanks to a fortunate turn of events, his father had hitched his wagon to the Nie family, achieving his dream of becoming the governor of the Caoyuan province. As the biggest contributor, Liang Ligui’s status in the family had also gone up considerably.
With his lazy demeanor long gone, he cut his long hair and opted for a neat buzz cut. Because Liang Ligui felt that as a member of the same faction, it was only natural for him to model himself after the young master and Kun.
“Kun, what’s the matter? You’re in such a rush. Weren’t you supposed to be in the Soviet Union? How come you are back?” Liang Ligui picked up the phone and immediately asked.
“Gifted Liang, let’s skip the pleasantries. Is there anyone your father trusts in Eguna City? I am currently in Eguna City, and so is the young master. We have been cornered at Enluo Township by some worthless individual named Xu, who is the secretary of the Eguna City Committee. Send people to assist us immediately. I am worried about the young master’s safety. I’ve got to go. Goodbye.” Saying this, Liu Kun hung up the phone.
In a situation like this, it was up to the Liang father and son to show their worth. He had done what he could and said what he needed to say. If anything were to happen to the heir of the Nie family, who had also introduced them to the Nie family, within the jurisdiction of Caoyuan province, then Governor Liang’s political future was over.
Looking at the phone, Liang Ligui was stunned. Eguna City, wasn’t that a county-level city? How could he, being the son of a respectable governor, know anybody in such a place? The only people he knew were from Hulun City.
Remembering the young master was still in Eguna, Liang Ligui didn’t dare to take the matter lightly. Immediately, he grabbed his coat and yelled to his mother; “Mom, I won’t be back for lunch. I have important business. I’m headed to dad’s.”
Five minutes later, Liang Ligui panted as he rushed into Governor Liang’s office. At this moment, Governor Liang was looking at some documents. Seeing his son in this state, Governor Liang frowned and reprimanded sternly, “Why are you gasping for breath? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? Such a panic, what kind of conduct is this?”
Liang Ligui couldn’t care less at this moment. He quickly said, “Dad…there’s been…an accident. The third young master…the third young master of the Nie family, Nie Zhenbang has been pinned down in Eguna City by the son of the city’s Communist Party Secretary and his gang.”
Upon hearing this, Governor Liang was somewhat confused. He stood up and said, “What the third young master? You little boy, speak clearly.”
By this time, Liang Ligui had also regained his breath. He sat on the sofa and said, “Dad, the third young master, the one from the Nie family, Nie Zhenbang! ”
Hearing this, Governor Liang was also surprised. Immediately, he said, “Ligui, aren’t you good friends with Zhou Taiping, the son of the deputy Communist Party Secretary of Hulun City? Now, you should immediately call Zhou’s son and ask him where he is. Tell him to rush to Eguna City with the colleagues from the Hulun City Public Security Bureau. On my end, I will immediately arrange for you to depart with Comrade Xing Weiguo from the Provincial Department of Public Security.”
At the same time Governor Liang began to make all the arrangements, the situation at Enluo Township had unfolded. The lackeys of the young master, Xu, were quickly taken down by Long and Tiger. Each one either had a dislocated shoulder or elbow joint and all curled up on the ground, wailing in pain.
Seeing these people daring to act this way, Xu was startled. He immediately exclaimed furiously, “Goodness. You actually dare to openly attack national officials. Have you lost your minds? Do you want a rebellion?”
With that said, Xu turned to the nearby head of the police station, “Chief Gu, notify the Eguna City Public Security Bureau immediately. Have them send police reinforcements here right away. Arrest all these outrageous beings who dare to assault state officials. What kind of behavior is this? They all need to be shot.”
Hearing this, Nie Zhenbang snorted coldly. Seeing the people from the police station immediately making contacts, Nie Zhenbang becomes even more furious. In a low voice, he said, “A group of scoundrels. Originally, I only wanted to settle this matter peacefully. But since it has come to this, why not make a big fuss about it. Long, Tiger! Take all these scumbags, handcuff them, and lock them up in Li Xue’s house. I want to see if this world still belongs to the Party, or to the people. Do they really think they can conceal the truth with their own actions?”
The moment Long and Tiger heard Nie Zhenbang’s order, there was no hesitation at all. When they retired from the service, Yuan Xinghua had instructed them to follow Nie Zhenbang’s orders. Furthermore, having followed him for quite some time, both of them knew that Nie Zhenbang had a powerful background. At this moment, anyone who threatened Nie Zhenbang’s life would face their willingness to shoot to kill, let alone just handcuffing.
In front of Long and Tiger, two special forces elites of the army, even the police of Enluo Township Police Station had no chance to fight back. Except for one police officer who escaped to call for reinforcements, including the head of Enluo Township, Gu Suo, they were all subdued. More than a dozen men were all thrown into the living room of Li Lixue’s house.
At this moment, Nie Zhenbang and Liu Kun walked in with stern faces. Seeing the terrifying look in Nie Zhenbang’s eyes, Xu was somewhat scared. This was the first time he had been thrown on the ground, the first time he had been handcuffed. Xu was feeling a mix of anger and humiliation.
Looking at Nie Zhenbang, Xu was losing his confidence. Nevertheless, he still growled angrily, “What…what are you trying to do? Do you know the consequences of assaulting me? My relationship with Guo Yunliang, the son of Mayor Guo of Hulun City, is extraordinary. You better think carefully.”
Before Nie Zhenbang could respond, Liu Kun started to laugh carelessly, “Mayor Guo? Quite a hefty official. I’m so scared. You, young master Xu, have such a profound background, how dare I lay my hands on you?”
On the face of it, Liu Kun has a kind smile. But when he started to act, he didn’t hesitate at all. He slapped Xu across the face. Instantly, Xu’s face had five red marks. At the same time, Liu Kun patted Xu’s face, “Young master Xu, huh? Bullying men and women, creating wrongful cases. It seems that you have committed many sins. I want to see who can save your life today.” At this point, Xu was scared. He wondered where Li Lixue found these fearsome people who really dared to take action.
Covering the still hot area on his face, Xu trembled, “You…you… What are you trying to do? Don’t do anything rash..”
