Chapter 377 - Making An Exception for You (2/2)

Qin Sheng said with a smile, “I might need some of your manpower, and lend me one of your right-hand men in the meantime. Personal issues.”

Brother Long agreed immediately. “That’s easy. I’ll arrange it right away.”

Qin Sheng then glanced at all these people in front, and said politely to them, “Sorry to bother you folks today. You are all powerful people in Huairou District. Though I don’t come by frequently, I might still need to ask for your favor as to look after for me later on.”

The present men couldn’t wait to answer him. “Hey bro, it’s no big deal. We’re on the same side, and if you want anything, you just tell us.”

They were all crystal clear that the young man before them was really something for sure. Besides the disposition of his, the sophistication was something never easy to get hold of for youngsters from ordinary families. Also, when it came to a face-to-face moment, he acted so experienced as neither overbearing nor servile, while showing his full respect for them at the same time. What a marvelous young man!

Qin Sheng cast a glimpse at the cemetery behind and said, “It’s not much of a matter. My mom has been buried here for a long time now, and I don’t want her to be disturbed. So please, keep an eye on her for me when I’m not around here.”

The public felt a bit of chill on their backs, guessing that they might have had to confront that somebody behind all this if accidents actually happened here today.

Qin Sheng courteously showed them out after their promise. Xiao Sanzi and his people were taken away too. Those who were left on-site were several subordinates and a henchman from Brother Long, as well as Lao Guo’s son. .

When everybody had gone out of sight, Qin Sheng headed back for the second-born of Lao Guo, crouched in front of him, and asked, “Lao Guo told me once about your name, and what’s that again? Well, well, well, it’s Guo Xiong, right? I’d rather say that the “Xiong” character sounds more like a coward than a hero in its implication, in your case. Don’t you think so?”

“Dear sir, I could be anyone you think I should be. A coward? Call me a p*ssy cat if you feel like.” Guo Xiong dared not to talk back at him.

Qin Sheng didn’t have the leisure for this nonsense and added, “I know about what you guys have done to Lao Guo. And what ungrateful bastards you are! I happened to have the time to reason with you. Now you take the lead and invite your brother and sister over here for a chat.”

“Well…ur…” Guo Xiong found it a difficult position for him to reveal the skeleton in the closet.

However, Guo Xiong backed down when Qin Sheng glared fiercely at him, and he said, “OK, OK, OK, I’ll take the lead, OK?”

Then Qin Sheng smiled at Brother Long’s subordinates and asked, “Thank you, brothers. I’ll see you guys later in the restaurant compartment at the intersection. If they don’t cooperate, you know what to do.”

Of course, these subordinates knew the jargon. They nodded at Qin Sheng with a smile, put Guo Xiong into a car, and drove away. Qin Sheng strolled back to the yard, thinking that he was really too unoccupied to care for other people’s family issues. But then, society did need people like him to claim justice for those in need, or else the evil ones couldn’t learn the rules.

When Qin Sheng returned to the yard, Lao Guo, who had been waiting nervously, came running to him and asked, “Xiao Qin, are you all right?”

Qin Sheng laughed. “Lao Guo, don’t worry. Nothing has happened to me. Those are small fry. The petty tricks could only intimidate ordinary people, but will soon make a fool of themselves when it comes to meeting the real stuff.”

Lao Guo put his heart back in place, and he said, “Well, that’s good to hear. I was afraid that jerk would do something to you, and I would feel really sorry for you if he did.”

Qin Sheng could do nothing about Lao Guo’s temperament since the old man was too honest and kind. He said to the old man, “Lao Guo, come on. Let’s take a walk.”

“What for? I am about to go check on the mountain,” said Lao Guo in confusion.

Qin Sheng said, “Go see your grateful sons and daughter of yours. I think from today on, they won’t have the balls to do that to you again.”

With a change of expression, Lao Guo dropped the conversation before he started to say something more, and followed Qin Sheng out.

Qin Sheng was chatting and drinking in the compartment of the restaurant, killing time with a plate of peanuts. A cup of white wine would be a better choice for keeping away the coldness, only it wasn’t time for it.

After an hour and a half, the three adult children of Lao Guo were taken into the compartment by Brother Long’s subordinates. Amongst them, only Guo Xiong had tasted the bitterness of what Qin Sheng was capable of doing, and he was still so frightened as to hold his breath tightly. The other two were unaware of the seriousness of the situation they were in. They felt a little bit afraid at first but soon put on an arrogant air at the sight of Lao Guo.

“Hey, tombstone, what are you scheming to do dragging all of us down here? To bury you or something?” the daughter cursed her father viciously, which was not too much of a scene to see in normal families in the world.

Lao Guo’s eyes turned red with tears as soon as he heard those harsh words. It was really heartbreaking to see a man who had been earnest and honest for half of his life suffering from loneliness at his old age.

Qin Sheng squinted at the woman, walked slowly before her, and spoke in a flat voice. “Usually, I wouldn’t hit a woman, but today I’m going to make an exception for you because you nauseated me!”

Suddenly, the vicious woman felt a loud slap from Qin Sheng on her cheap-makeup face before figuring out what was going on here.

The woman had always been in an upper hand in her life and didn’t expect to be hit on the ground. The eldest son, who was standing by her side, felt so lucky not to have said anything just now, or else, he would have been the one taking the beating.
