Chapter 41: Cause and Effect
At 2:30 p.m., when Chen Nannan drove away from the villa, he had a whim and wanted to go to the new house. The house was in Wanghai Jiayuan in the western suburbs, close to the beach. It is a newly developed high-end community with an outrageous price. The 150 square meters building area, plus a 20 square meters semi-underground garage, almost emptied the savings of the two elderly people for half of their lives. ()
However, the scenery there is very beautiful, very close to the coastal Botanical Garden, only a dozen minutes walk away. What is even more precious is that standing on the terrace, you can also look at the long coastline, so after she took a look at it, she liked it there. Chen Nannan liked two poems from Haizi the most: "Facing the sea, spring is warm and flowers bloom."
Chen Nannan has only been there twice since the house was renovated. Every time, the busy workers would stop their work and stare at her with an unconcealed look, which made Chen Nannan feel a little scared and uncomfortable. Therefore, since then, she has never been there again, and the decoration matters have been arranged by Liu Chunshan.
Half an hour later, the car drove into the community. Chen Nannan jumped out of the car, went upstairs leisurely, pushed open the empty door, and saw three workers in work clothes busy, most of the houses were ready, and only some finishing work was left.
She picked up the car key with her fingers and walked around the room. She was very satisfied with Liu Chunshan's work. The designs agreed upon by the two were executed without fail. There were some minor changes occasionally, which seemed unique and warm.
"Hey, who are you looking for?" A gray-haired old man put down the tool in his hand, stood up and down, looking at Chen Nannan, and said a little dissatisfied.
"Master, thank you for your hard work, this house is mine." Chen Nannan smiled and said in a proud tone: "I am very busy and rarely come here. My boyfriend comes here."
The old man said 'oh', put a pencil on his ear, picked up the drawing next to him, frowned and said, "It just so happened that you are here. There was a little problem when decorating here. We couldn't contact anyone and didn't dare to make any changes at will. It has been delayed for several days, which affects the progress."
"Can't contact anyone?" Chen Nannan was stunned for a moment, frowned and said, "How could that be? Didn't he come here in the afternoon?"
The old man came over and handed the drawings to Chen Nannan, and said a little annoyed: "No, I called in the morning and said I was busy and I didn't have time. In the afternoon, the phone could not be reached again and was not in the service area."
"Maybe there is something urgent?" Chen Nannan took off her sunglasses, took the drawings and looked at them a few times, followed the old man to the window, discussed it, confirmed the change plan, picked up the pen, signed the name on it, thought about it, then raised his head, and said inadvertently: "Master, today, did the neighbors come to complain? The decoration on the weekend is quite annoying."
"No, who did you hear?" The old man looked at her and frowned and said, "The neighbors are all very good, but you should take some responsibility. You can't see each other normally. You come here to run over the weekend. Before you finish the matter, you no longer see anyone, delaying the progress, otherwise you would have been done."
"Is that so? I'm so sorry." Chen Nannan smiled awkwardly, walked to the window, looked at the vast sea, and thought to himself, maybe it was because Chunshan felt uncomfortable sitting there, so he found a reason to leave.
Just as she was thinking, the harsh chainsaw sounded again. She was afraid that the clothes would be hung on her, so she hurriedly left. As soon as she arrived downstairs, a crisp ringtone of her cell phone rang. Chen Nannan took out her cell phone and looked at the number. Seeing that it was called by Master Lin, she couldn't help but frowned slightly. At this time, what did he call to do? No bad thoughts would have happened again...
Chen Nannan stopped, brewing his emotions, then answered the phone and said calmly: "Hey, Master Lin, hello, is there anything?"
"Ah, Xiao Shen, that's the case. If it's convenient, can you have a cup of tea together?" Master Lin's voice sounded in his ears. The voice was a little hoarse and awkward. He paused for a moment, and he quickly explained: "Well, Xiao Shen, please don't get me wrong. I just want to talk about something, which is related to Chunshan. Maybe you will be interested."
"It has something to do with Chunshan?" Chen Nannan was stunned for a moment, frowned, walked gracefully to the car, and said as he walked: "Master, if you have something to do, just say it on the phone. I have something to do here, and I may not be able to leave."
"Cough cough... I can't say it clearly on the phone." Master Lin coughed a few times, took out a tissue, wiped his red nose, and sweared: "Xiao Shen, don't worry, after being criticized by Secretary Wang of the Municipal Party Committee, I deeply reflected on myself and no longer being as rash as before. This time, there is indeed an important thing and it does not take up too long for you. It is estimated that more than ten minutes should be enough."
Chen Nannan walked to the side of the car, opened the door, sat in, and hesitated: "Okay, then Master Lin, where are we meeting?"
"Meiling Teahouse, I will go there in twenty minutes." Master Lin finished speaking, and before she could make a sound, he hung up the phone, picked up the cup, drank a sip of red wine, walked to the computer desk, pulled down a U-disk, held it in his hand, and gritted his teeth: "My surname is Liu, since you are not kind, don't blame me for being unrighteous, don't let me feel comfortable, don't think about it!"
Chen Nannan sat in the driver's seat, closed the car door casually, started the car, but did not drive away. Instead, he touched his cell phone and called Liu Chunshan's phone number. As a result, the prompt sounded in his ears, as the construction worker said, indeed, the dialing user was not in the service area.
"Have you gone out to drink again?" Chen Nannan sighed, put on her sunglasses, drove the car out of the community and headed towards the city.
Twenty minutes later, she arrived at the agreed location, went to the teahouse, looked for a place upstairs, and ordered a pot of Biluochun, then played with her cell phone, turned her eyes out of the window, and was stunned. Inadvertently, the sound of conversation coming from behind suddenly attracted her attention.
"Tell me, what's the point of asking me to meet this time!" This is a man's voice, low and powerful. He should be a middle-aged man when he heard the voice.
"Captain Wu, that's the case. I want to get someone out. Can you please help me?" This was a woman's voice, a very ordinary sentence, which she said in her mouth, but she was so coquettish.
"Who are you trying to catch?" The man's voice was a little surprised.
"Scarface." The woman replied in a low voice, and then added softly: "If possible, get the Xiaomi out too. It's only the two of them. How about it? Is it okay?"
"No, absolutely not." The man paused, as if he had taken a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Crazy woman, you should know that Sun Zhijun has the final say in the current municipal bureau. He has the support of the municipal party secretary, and he is very arrogant and never takes others seriously."
Hearing this, Chen Nannan's heart suddenly jumped, and she quickly reached out to open her bag, took out the dressing mirror, and secretly looked back, but saw a burly middle-aged man chatting with a woman in the seat behind her.
Although I can't see the woman's face clearly, from the side, it seems to be quite handsome, but there is a little frivolous look between my eyebrows, which looks like a fairy woman. The middle-aged man looks familiar and seems to have seen it somewhere.
"Captain Wu, stop going around the corner. How much does it cost? Just say something!" The woman seemed a little impatient, shrugged and said in a cold tone.
"This is not a matter of money!" Wu Mingpu was a little angry, and waved his hand, looked at the charming woman opposite, and said with a dark face: "It has been said that now is a special period, and no one can get any gangster."
"Bang!" The crazy woman lit a lady's cigarette, took a few sips, opened her mouth, blew the faint smoke over, and said with a sneer: "Captain Wu, it's really cold to leave. After the crazy man left, you won't even handle this matter."
"Don't talk nonsense!" Wu Mingpu frowned, pointed at her, then turned his head and looked around, and said softly: "Crazy woman, now there is such a big noise. If you don't stay honestly, what are you going to do to catch those two people?"
"What else can I do? I want to make a comeback!" The crazy woman threw the lighter on the table, holding a cigarette in her hand, and said expressionlessly: "Captain Wu, it's an opportunity now. If you can release people and occupy the territory in the future, I will share 30% of you."
"You tmd is crazy about money..." Wu Mingpu glared at her, picked up the cup, and said angrily: "I'm still 30% of the money, I'm going to commit crimes against the wind, you're not going to die? Didn't you see Jiang Hezhi Capital enter!"
The crazy woman smiled contemptuously, curled her lips, and said disapprovingly: "It's just a gust of wind, why bother to be shocked? Don't worry, no matter how strong the wind is, it will blow over. Then I'm not going to call lanterns, as usual!"
Wu Mingpu snorted coldly, shook his head slightly, and said with a serious expression: "Crazy Woman, this time I am here. Not only the political and legal system, but also the Commission for Discipline Inspection has moved. The second wave of attack will soon arrive. I don't know how many people will be involved. If this gust of wind is over, it's still early. I advise you to die sooner and not to get rid of the fire!"
The crazy woman raised her eyebrows and said curiously: "Captain Wu, what is the city party secretary doing? Why haven't she lost her fun yet?"
"Political struggle needs, and you won't understand it even if you say it!" Wu Mingpu turned his body, touched his hair with his hand, his eyes fell on the fair face of the crazy woman, and took a sip of tea thoughtfully.
The crazy woman picked up the purple clay pot, added tea for Wu Ming, and whispered: "Captain Wu, the godfather and the others have entered, which is a good thing. Now it is a great opportunity. It's a pity... What's more, if we are close to Hong Kong and Macao, we won't take it, and they will also seep over there. Binhai is a good place to make money. There are many people watching, and they can't even drink the soup if they move slowly."
"No, I would like to advise you. This time, Secretary Wang of the Municipal Party Committee is here really, don't hit the gun!" Wu Mingpu took a sip of tea, frowned and persuaded her, sighed again, and lowered his voice: "Crazy woman, you look pretty good, just find a good family to marry, don't go all the way to the dark, I don't want to catch you in one day."
The crazy woman was slightly stunned, then touched her face with her hands, giggled, slanted her eyes, glanced at him with a very charming look, and said lightly: "Why, Team Wu, can't bear it?"
"It's a bit!" Wu Mingpu smiled, leaned back, and snorted coldly: "If I were a madman, I would have lived a peaceful life with such a delicate and tender woman. How could I go out to fight and kill? In the end, I even paid my life!"
"It's not too late now!" The crazy woman opened her lips, spit out a few faint smoke rings, poked out one leg, and used the tip of her high heels to tick Wu Mingpu's leather shoes meaningfully: "How about it, I'm trying to find a way to let go, let's work together, maybe you Captain Wu can still get both people and wealth..."
Wu Mingpu laughed, waved his hand, and whispered: "I don't dare. If you are touched by a woman, you may even have to pay your life."
"Is it that serious?" The crazy woman sighed, extinguished the cigarette in her hand, threw it into the pink ashtray, and said seriously: "Captain Wu, stop going around in circles. What do you think of the proposal just now? 30% is a lot!"
"Well, it's really good, it's very tempting!" Wu Mingpu came over and knocked on the table with his hand, saying word by word: "But before that, you have to help me with something."
"What's the matter? Look at your mysterious appearance, it must be nothing good!" The crazy woman glanced at him, stretched out her right hand, held Wu Mingpu's big hand, and gently stroked it, her eyes full of teasing.
Wu Mingpu smiled faintly, pulled his hand back, and whispered: "Help me get someone, I want to ruin him!"
"Who are you doing?" The crazy woman frowned slightly, narrowed her eyes and asked in a low voice.
"Sun Zhijun!" Wu Mingpu's face darkened, he squeezed out these three words from his teeth, and said viciously: "With him here, don't think of making a comeback. This person is the biggest stumbling block and must be kicked away!"
The crazy woman hesitated for a moment and frowned and said, "Do you do something about Sun Zhijun? What's going on? Even the crazy man said during his lifetime that among the people in the police, the one he feared the most was Sun Zhijun, and that person was very difficult to deal with."
"Wrong, in this world, the most difficult thing is always women!" Wu Mingpu snorted, hugged his shoulders with both hands, and said softly: "If you agree, we can have a good talk. If you don't agree, just find someone else. Someone can do something I can't do."
The crazy woman was silent for a while, then nodded and said coldly: "Okay, tell me, what's the point?"
Wu Mingpu smiled with satisfaction, put down the teacup, hooked his fingers, and the crazy woman obediently leaned over. Wu Mingpu put his lips in her ear, whispered for a while, patted her on the shoulder, and smiled and said, "Crazy woman, look at you. After the matter is done, I promise to help you get the people out. Moreover, there is no need to worry about business matters, everything is OK!"
"Captain Wu, you are so sinister!" The crazy woman looked at him, stood up, and said lightly: "Okay, who made me greedy? That's it."
"Okay, I'm determined to wait for your good news." Wu Mingpu played with the cup and watched the crazy woman leave, then said coldly: "Slutty, you're not very ambitious!"
