Chapter 516: Chapter 516
As soon as he walked in, Han Dong asked, "How’s that bastard doing? Did you catch him?"
"He can only be detained for forty-eight hours. It’s not that easy. Come in first. We’re trying to find a way." Gu Junming was discussing strategies with Liu Enming. He had been investigating Fang Guanghui’s affairs these past few days.
The results of his investigation were that this person had some bad debts in Shenzhen. He falsely claimed that he was going to build houses, collected many people’s advance payments, and then ran off after scamming a lot of people out of their money. The company also went bankrupt and closed down. He fled north, supposedly to do business, but mostly to avoid these troubles.
"But these are all just rumors; whether it’s true or not is unclear. But it’s certain that Fang Guanghui’s company in the south did go bankrupt," Liu Enming said.
"Since that brat couldn’t make it in the south, he should find somewhere to hide out, yet now he dares to strut around in the north?" Han Dong sneered, "He’s really got guts. This guy is definitely a reckless desperado."
"He indeed has guts; otherwise, he wouldn’t have hired someone to harm Sun Chan directly. And he outright denies any relation to the person, very good at exploiting loopholes. We don’t have evidence, so there’s naturally no way to catch him." Gu Junming frowned.
"So, there’s still no way to catch him?" Han Dong thought to himself that these two are useless. One’s a soldier with countless elite troops under him, and the other’s the son of a second-in-command, yet they still can’t deal with him.
Liu Enming shook his head: "It’s very difficult. The evidence is insufficient. As for his business in the south, it’s too complicated. Even though many have sued him before, they didn’t gain anything. Plus, since Fang Guanghui is considered a well-known investor around here, doing anything without proof might have a negative impact and could scare away southern investors, which is something my father doesn’t want to see. The implications are too significant."
Without solid evidence, there’s really no way to move against this guy.
"Catching this person is truly difficult." Gu Junming frowned; he’s very adept at exploiting legal loopholes.
Han Dong snorted, leaned back in his chair, swung his long legs, and said, "You two share the same flaw, too kind and don’t know how to adapt. What’s so hard? Isn’t it just about making him behave? That’s easy." Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel⟡fire.net
"How?" The two asked in unison.
Han Dong chuckled; "Isn’t it just about wanting him to be well-behaved for a while? Just beat him up; that’s all there is to it. You don’t need to ask about this, leave it to me! Let him understand what it means to deal with folks from the north! Does he really think we can’t handle this scoundrel? That’s just laughable."
Gu Junming laughed; this indeed was Han Dong’s style. If you can’t deal with him temporarily, make him act tame for a while; just beating him up should be easy.
The two thought about what Han Dong would do and started laughing.
"We really didn’t think of that."
"It’s not strange," Han Dong laughed.
Gu Junming’s profession requires him to abide by the law. As for Liu Enming, he’s always been a bookworm, and their family rules are strict, so they didn’t consider punishing this bastard outside the law.
"Why, you guys unwilling? Or are you thinking of arresting me?"
Gu Junming said, "No, your plan is good. Let’s do it that way."
Liu Enming stood up and said, "I should head back; my father is waiting for me at home. I don’t know anything about these matters, and I won’t say anything carelessly."
"That’s fine; if you can’t manage it, just act like you don’t know." Han Dong laughed and patted Liu Enming on the shoulder.
Liu Enming smiled, and walked out of the compound. On his way back, he thought he had some time, so he visited Wu Qiong at the hospital. During this period, Wu Qiong had changed a lot; she was very sensible and didn’t speak as arrogantly as before.
Liu Enming had a much better impression of her, and took good care of her.
Wu Dafu was secretly glad but didn’t dare to show it; he deliberately created opportunities for the two to spend time together.
Gu Junming checked the time and said to Liu Enming, "Sun Chan should be back soon; stay for dinner, what do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you."
"Anything will do; you know what I like." Han Dong was sitting on the sofa, somewhat dazed.
Gu Junming nodded, took out frozen dumplings from the refrigerator, and also started to make some soup; they could eat soon.
While busy, he suddenly saw Han Dong standing silently at the door, fiddling with a knife in his hand, scaring Gu Junming who kicked at Han Dong saying, "What are you doing, standing there like a ghost? Trying to kill me?"
"Brother, I might be becoming a father." Han Dong tossed the knife aside.
Gu Junming was stunned, then grabbed him by the shoulder, "What did you say? You got married without telling?"
"I’m not married. There’s a woman who might be pregnant, my child. But we won’t know for sure until we go to the hospital."
He’d been getting close to that woman for around two months. When he returned yesterday, she mentioned she hadn’t had her period last month. It seemed likely, but wasn’t certain.
Han Dong always wanted to be a father to make his parents happy, but now that the news came, it felt complicated. He wasn’t sure how he felt.
Gu Junming said, "What are you scared of? Afraid the woman will use the child to ask for too much?"
"She wouldn’t dare!" Han Dong frowned, "She won’t inconvenience herself. If she wants riches and luxury for life, she has to listen. If she dares play tricks, I’d rather abandon the child than not discipline her properly."
"I don’t even know what to say to you! You come from a respectable family; why do you act like a streetwise rascal?"
Gu Junming, both helpless and annoyed, slapped Han Dong’s back: "Don’t talk like a thug, I don’t like hearing that."
Han Dong just laughed, "What’s wrong with that? I’m not like you; I don’t have a job, so I can say whatever I want. No reservations. Like dealing with Fang Guanghui, your identity makes it hard to act, but for me, it’s different. Too many considerations feel stifling. Let me help you."
The two ate and chatted together.
Han Dong heard Yang Yun died and felt nothing; gone was gone. Her life always caused trouble and was something to always guard against. Easier now.
Gu Junming asked, "I always wanted to know, besides here, did you also deal with her when you were in the provincial capital?"
"Yes. I had someone lead her into a trap, but if she hadn’t been greedy for vanity, nothing would’ve happened. I don’t regret it; go tell Sun Chan, see how I’d retaliate against you." He looked at Gu Junming and laughed.
