Chapter 162: 162 Old Man Han’s Little Conspiracy_1

The sudden loud noise caused the faces of the other two middle-aged men in the room to change dramatically, staring in horror at the completely fallen wall and their companion lying on the ground, unconscious or possibly dead.

They didn’t know what had just happened, but the scene before them made their hairs stand on end, filled with terror.

"Bang..." A figure suddenly rushed out of the room, kicking one of the middle-aged men and sending him flying into the wall behind him.

Compared to the previous unfortunate man, the middle-aged man didn’t bring the wall down, but he was barely clinging to life. That kick had severely injured his internal organs.

The head middle-aged man stuttered and asked, "Who... who are you?"

Zhang Xian coldly chuckled, "What’s this? You dare to kidnap without expecting retribution?"

"Boss, what’s going on..."

The Jetta man hurried upstairs after hearing the loud noise. As he saw the scene inside, his words were abruptly halted.

Zhang Xian’s gaze shifted instantly, appearing directly in front of the Jetta man, grabbing him and slamming him into the wall.

"Bang..." The Jetta man hadn’t had time to react when he fainted on the floor, blood staining his forehead a shocking red.

The leading middle-aged man backed away in fear, looking at Zhang Xian and said, "Brother, we can talk things over. There’s no need for such violence. The woman in there...she’s got nothing to do with anything."

"Fine, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance." Zhang Xian coldly smirked, "Tell me who is pulling the strings behind the curtain, and I’ll spare you."

The leader of the middle-aged men said, "Big brother, we... we are just a bunch of kidnappers, only after money; there... there’s no one behind us pulling the strings. We just wanted to make some money."

"Slap..." Zhang Xian slapped the middle-aged man across the face and coldly stated, "Do you think I’m a fool? If you guys were really kidnappers, wouldn’t you have gone after the rich people in Yantai instead of Liu Xiaowen? The Zhu Pharmaceutical Company isn’t even a large corporation compared to the other companies in Yantai. Given the current situation, would real kidnappers choose such an awkward target?"

The middle-aged man did not expect Zhang Xian to be so cautious in his calculations. He dared not lie further. "Brother, I’ll tell you the truth, but I honestly don’t know who the other party is. None of us five are locals of Yantai. We only came due to someone’s invitation, saying that they’d give us five million just for kidnapping someone. But from beginning to end, we didn’t know their identity, they always had a mask on."

"Useless..." said Zhang Xian, kicking the lead man away before heading into the room.

Liu Xiaowen was lying on the bed. Hearing footsteps approaching, she subconsciously moved backwards, asking, "Zhang... Zhang Xian, is... is that you?"

"Mmm... Auntie, I’m here to rescue you." Zhang Xian approached the bed, untied the ropes on Liu Xiaowen’s hands and the black cloth on her head, then asked, "Auntie, are you okay?"

Liu Xiaowen previously thought the voice sounded like Zhang Xian, but she wasn’t certain. Now that she saw it was indeed Zhang Xian who had come, she flung herself into his arms, sobbing and saying, "Zhang Xian, thank you, thank you!"

Zhang Xian held Liu Xiaowen, smiling as he said, "Auntie, what are you saying? Seems like, we’re a family."

"Thankfully, you arrived in time. Otherwise, I would have..." Liu Xiaowen shuddered, recalling what had happened earlier. Had Zhang Xian not arrived, the consequences would’ve been unbearable.

Zhang Xian patted Liu Xiaowen’s back to comfort her, then said, "Auntie, you’ve suffered these past few days. Let’s go home first."

Liu Xiaowen nodded, leaning on Zhang Xian as they walked out.

Ever since she was captured, she hadn’t slept at all, nor was she in the mood to sleep - her heart was always on edge. Now that she could finally relax, an overwhelming wave of exhaustion hit her, leaving her feeling weak.

"What’s happening?" Da Wu and Xiao Wu rushed in.

Seeing the situation in the room, they widened their eyes, looking at Zhang Xian in disbelief.

They had only been gone a mere two minutes, and four kidnappers were taken down by Zhang Xian? And was this guy tearing down the building?

"Da Wu brother, Xiao Wu brother, could you help me take care of the aftermath?" Zhang Xian said to Da Wu, "Hmm, the merits of this operation all belong to you."

Da Wu and Xiao Wu knew that Zhang Xian didn’t want to show his face, so they didn’t say anything. As for the merit, these kidnappers might have been habitual offenders, their methods very experienced; but they weren’t police officers, there was no merit in it for them.

...

In a villa in Yantai.

Old Man Han gazed at Da Wu and Xiao Wu before him, asking, "Is Zhang Xian really that formidable?"

Da Wu nodded, "General, Zhang Xian’s abilities exceed our imaginations. That fellow is definitely a freak of nature."

Xiao Wu also nodded repeatedly, "Championing his endurance and jumping ability that far exceeds ours, we can’t even be compared to him."

Old Man Han was taken aback before chuckling, "Interesting, very interesting!"

...

Finally, the issue of Liu Xiaowen being kidnapped was over.

Seeing her mother returned unharmed, half of the heavy load in Zhu Qing’s heart dropped.

After taking a bath, she pulled Zhang Xian into a room and said, "My mom has been rescued, but the mastermind behind all this still has not been found. You need to hurry."

"Mmm," nodded Zhang Xian, "However, it seems that I now lack a target and have completely no idea where to start."

Zhu Qing said, "Why don’t you see my father? He may know something."

"That’s a good idea. After all, your mother doesn’t get involved in the company’s affairs and doesn’t know much," Zhang Xian nodded, "Of course, I won’t let Tao Jinbao and Song Yuzhe off the hook."

Zhu Qing asked doubtfully, "You still suspect them?"

Zhang Xian replied, "Yes, even if they are not the masterminds, they should know something. Otherwise, would they dare to acquire your father’s company?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing understood Zhang Xian’s point. Zhu’s Pharmacy suddenly ran into trouble, becoming a hot potato, supposedly Tao Jinbao and Song Yuzhe would be reluctant to take on such an issue. Currently, the reputation of Zhu’s Pharmacy had hit rock bottom and would require enormous effort even if a new owner wanted to regain public acceptance. The consumers are the true gods of a company.

In addition, if someone wanted to ruin Zhu’s Pharmacy, would Tao Jinbao and Song Yuzhe risk stepping into troubled waters without being certain of the outcome? Those two guys were not fools; in fact, they were rather cunning.

...

The next morning, Zhang Xian accompanied Zhu Yan to school.

He had just sat down when his phone rang. It was Old Man Han, inviting him for tea again.

Speaking of which, Old Man Han did him a huge favor yesterday. Not only did he take care of the aftermath but also retrieved fifty million for him. He really must show respect to Old Man Han.

Even though he had told Old Man Han yesterday that he was serving the country rather than helping him solve his problems, when it came to this point, he couldn’t stay indifferent. This favor, he owed it.

Still at the Famous Fragrance Tea House, still at the same old table.

However, there was an extra man in his fifties, dressed in a black suit and wearing a pair of rimless glasses, sitting respectfully at the table.

When Old Man Han saw Zhang Xian arrived, he introduced the man after inviting Zhang Xian to sit down, "Zhang Xian, this is Director Ding Hao of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Director Ding, this is Zhang Xian, whom I mentioned to you yesterday."

Director Ding Hao appeared slightly constrained in front of Old Man Han and shook Zhang’s hand with a smile, "Impressive. Truly the hero of our younger generation."

"I wouldn’t consider myself a hero. The person on the other side is my mother-in-law." After shaking hands with Ding Hao, Zhang Xian glared at Old Man Han and said, "Old man, what do you mean by this?"

Ding Hao was drinking tea. After hearing how Zhang Xian addressed Old Man Han, he burst out laughing.

This guy got guts! Daring to address Old Man Han as "Old man", doesn’t he know that the seemingly ordinary old man in front of him used to be a big shot in the military?

However, it seemed that Old Man Han didn’t get angry and was just smiling. What was going on?

Even though Old Man Han was known for his good temper, it was still inappropriate for a youngster to call him "Old man" in front of his subordinates.

"Cough, cough..." Old Man Han cleared his throat and looked at Zhang Xian,"Young man, aren’t I doing this to avoid wasting your talent? Even if you don’t join the army, you should make a contribution for the country."

Zhang Xian squinted at Old Man Han and asked, "What devilish plans are you concocting now?"

Old Man Han complained, "Zhang Xian, what are you talking about? What do you mean devilish plans? Don’t make it sound so unpleasant. I’m considering this for the sake of our country."

Zhang Xian retorted, "Just spit it out if you have something to say, don’t beat around the bush. I don’t really understand grand principles."

"You little brat really know how to piss people off!" Old Man Han’s mouth twitched uncomfortably, "There’s no big deal, just help Director Ding when he’s in trouble."

Zhang Xian hesitated, then asked, "Is that all?"

Old Man Han nodded, "That’s all it is! What else could it be? Recently, the public order in Yantai has been in a bad state. You’re quite capable, you should exert some efforts for the public."

Zhang Xian pondered for a moment and then nodded, expressing his consent. It wasn’t a big deal to help out. If he encountered any injustice, he wouldn’t just stand idly by anyway. Furthermore, it would enable him to improve relations with the director.

You know, his father-in-law is still being held in police custody, having the city’s top officer’s aid should make things a bit easier, right?

You have to admit, this piece of good luck came at the right time. Inadvertently, Old Man Han had given him another helping hand.

Noticing Zhang Xian’s agreement, Director Ding Hao was very pleased, "Ha-ha, young man, I’m glad that you’re willing to serve the people. If there’s any trouble in the future, don’t think I’ll stand on ceremony."

Zhang Xian laughed, "No problem, I won’t be stingy if I can lend a hand."

Old Man Han glared at Director Ding Hao, saying, "What kind of talk is that? What do you mean by not standing on ceremony? This guy ought to serve the people, he doesn’t need you to stand on ceremony for this kind of thing."

...

After chatting at the tea house for a while, seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Xian decided not to stay any longer.

He still had to go to school after this, and before that, he needed to visit the Public Security Bureau to see his future father-in-law.

Learning that Zhang Xian was heading for the Public Security Bureau, Ding Hao immediately suggested, "Brother Zhang, I’m on my way back there too, shall we go together?"

Zhang Xian nodded, "That would be great."

Ding Hao smiled and as they climbed into a VW SUV, he asked, "Brother Zhang, why are you going to our Public Security Bureau? It wouldn’t be because someone you know got..."

Zhang Xian said, "Honestly, I have some connections with the Zhu Family. Recently, Zhu’s Pharmacy ran into some trouble and the boss was detained by you guys for alleged illicit profit-making. I’d like to go and check on him."
