Chapter 286: We Are Civilized People

"That's right!" Zhou Andong opened his eyes, "There are thieves for a thousand days, but no one guards against thieves for a thousand days. Therefore, Pang Yong must be eliminated. However, we are civilized people; we just need to use our brains to do things. There's no need to kill and fight; it's beneath our status."

Yao Jun's mouth twitched. He took a puff of the cigarette and asked: "How do we deal with him?"

Zhou Andong said softly: "Pang Yong has a huge network of relationships behind him. As long as we tear open this network, Pang Yong will naturally have nowhere to run."

The biggest umbrella behind Pang Yong was Lin Guosheng. This guy would find various excuses to run to Macau to gamble every year.

It wasn't until 1999 that a certain department of the state was executing a mission in Macau and discovered three figures with northern accents frequently appearing in casinos at the Lisboa Hotel, Oriental Hotel, New Century Entertainment City, etc.

Among them, one was tall, well-dressed, generous, and threw money around like dirt. The department secretly monitored the activities of these people with cameras and sent them back to the country.

Unexpectedly, they didn't check, but once they did, they were shocked. That tall man who threw money around was actually Lin Guosheng from Fengjing, and the other two were also powerful figures in a certain department.

Just like that, Lin Guosheng was taken down, and a whole string of people was implicated. Pang Yong, who was arrogant and blood-stained, and had already ruled the underground forces of Fengjing, was also arrested at this time.

Pang Yong was sentenced to death in the first trial. After the appeal, he was surprisingly sentenced to death with a reprieve, which shocked all the victims' families who had testified in court.

That someone like Pang Yong could still survive was beyond everyone's expectations and made many people angry. Heaven has no dead ends. The Supreme Court very suddenly and very rarely retried Pang Yong.

The final judgment: death penalty, immediate execution. Sentenced at ten o'clock, sent to the execution ground at eleven o'clock. The speed of the trial and execution was rare in history.

Zhou Andong tapped his head. He knew Lin Guosheng would go to Macau to gamble every year, and more than once, but he didn't know the exact time. He couldn't just squat in Macau and wait for him to go.

"This is really a trouble." Zhou Andong muttered.

"What trouble?" Yao Jun didn't hear clearly and tilted his head to ask.

"Nothing!" Zhou Andong opened the car window and threw the cigarette butt out.

"Damn it, why aren't you following?" Brother Hu kicked Long Hair.

Long Hair wasn't willing, but there was no other way. He had to bite the bullet and get into the Dafa van. The dwarf also got into the car hesitantly.

"Boss!" Brother Hu went to help Pang Yong: "I'll take you to the hospital."

Pang Yong pushed him away and got into the tiger-head Mercedes: "Drive to Jujiang!"

Brother Hu pointed at Four-Eyes and the guy with the broken leg: "Hurry up and send them to the hospital. I'm going to Jiangzhou with the boss."

A few people helped Four-Eyes and the guy with the broken leg into the car and headed straight to Liaonan City Hospital.

The others followed Pang Yong's car and drove toward Jiangzhou. Afraid of being discovered by Zhou Andong, they could only hang far behind....

At Jiangzhou Winery, after Gu Bing brought people back, the brothers from the Security Department didn't go home but patrolled and stood guard at the gate in shifts.

Pang Yong's wife and child were brought to the factory conference room. At this time, Pang Yong's son woke up. The two-year-old child didn't know what danger was and stared with big eyes, curiously looking at the strangers and the environment.

Suddenly, the conference room door was pushed open. An Jing broke in, looking exhausted, and said anxiously to Gu Bing: "Where did you go? Do you know that Xiaoqin is missing?"

Gu Bing said: "Don't rush, sit down first."

"How can I not rush?" An Jing's eyes were red, "Xiaoqin is missing, and I couldn't find you guys. I asked the gatekeeper, Old Zhang, and he said you guys took people out, which scared me to death."

Gu Bing pulled An Jing to sit down: "I'm telling you, absolutely don't rush."

An Jing nodded helplessly: "Alright, alright, alright, you speak."

Gu Bing said: "Xiaoqin was kidnapped."

"What?" An Jing's face turned pale instantly, and she stood up with a *whoosh*.

"I said, don't rush!" Gu Bing pulled An Jing to sit down again, "Zhou Andong is already negotiating with the people who kidnapped Xiaoqin and should be back soon."

An Jing shuddered, even more anxious: "He is negotiating with the kidnappers alone? Why not call the police?"

Gu Bing smiled bitterly and raised his chin: "Those are the kidnapper's wife and child."

"Ah?" This news was quite a shock to An Jing, "You guys have also become kidnappers."

Gu Bing said helplessly: "This matter is very complicated. There is Tong Huaiyu's shadow behind it. If we hadn't acted decisively and kidnapped the other party's wife and child, Xiaoqin would never have been able to come back."

Once she heard it was Tong Huaiyu, An Jing understood everything and gritted her teeth in anger: "This bastard is really lingering like a ghost. I actually admired him so much when I was little."

At this time, Pang Yong's wife also understood why she had been captured here. She hated him so much that her teeth itched. I don't care what you do outside, but now it has threatened me and the child. When I go back, I'm not done with you.

The sky gradually brightened. Zhou Andong finally returned. As soon as he got out of the car, he said to Xu Ziwai: "Take those two guys from the Dafa van to the small woods behind the factory and give them a good repair. Just don't leave them crippled; we don't have the time to send them back."

"Alright!" Xu Ziwai agreed, waved his hand with a smile: "Brothers, drag those two guys from the Dafa van, go to the small woods behind the factory, and give them a repair."

"What are you doing, what are you doing?" Long Hair and the dwarf shouted in horror and were dragged out of the car by a group of Security Department brothers.

Don't look at how arrogant these two guys were usually. In Jiangzhou, in this winery, on someone else's turf, they could only be slaughtered. Especially after witnessing Zhou Andong's ruthlessness, it would be a lie to say they weren't afraid.

Soon, shrill screams came from the small woods. That sound, it was as miserable as it could be, truly making the listeners' hearts tremble and their flesh jump.

Old Kai trotted to the conference room: "The Factory Director is back."

"Where's Xiaoqin?" An Jing asked.

Old Kai nodded: "Back!"

"Hoo!" An Jing let out a long breath, suddenly feeling as if the strength in her body had been drained, and she sat on the stool with a *thump*.

"If it weren't for the fact that you guys were also missing, I would have really called the police."

Zhou Andong pushed the door and entered, with Zhou Anqin following behind. An Jing stood up, grabbed Zhou Anqin's shoulders, and looked her up and down: "How is it, how is it, hmm?"

Zhou Anqin's eyes turned red, and she hugged An Jing: "I'm fine, don't worry."

An Jing patted Zhou Anqin's shoulder gently: "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine."

"An Jing!" Zhou Andong said: "Take Xiaoqin back to rest."

"Alright!" An Jing pulled Zhou Anqin out of the conference room.

Zhou Andong sat opposite Pang Yong's wife, took the cigarette Gu Bing handed him, which was already lit: "Go back and tell Pang Yong, don't step into Jiangzhou again. If you dare to touch my bottom line again, I will wipe out your whole family.

Also, have him pass a word to Tong Huaiyu: I accept this grand gift this time. I have also prepared a grand gift for his Tong family; I will deliver it to him personally when I have time."

Pang Yong's wife nodded vigorously: "I... I will pass on the words."

Zhou Andong waved his hand: "Go, Pang Yong's people are waiting downstairs."

Pang Yong's wife held the child, stood up cautiously, and walked out, looking back every three steps, as if afraid Zhou Andong would suddenly stab her in the back.

Once she got out of the conference room door, the woman quickened her pace. When she got to the stairwell, she ran down even faster.

Running out of the factory headquarters, she saw Long Hair and the dwarf from afar. Both of them were bruised and swollen, looking very miserable.

Those two guys also saw her and walked over limping, calling out in a slurred voice: "Sister-in-law!"

Seeing them like this, Pang Yong's wife sighed inwardly. This beating didn't look light.

"Let's go!"

The three got into the Dafa van. Long Hair endured the pain all over his body and drove the car out of the winery gate. He didn't dare drive fast inside, very afraid of being dragged out of the car again for a group beating.

After getting out of the gate, this guy stepped on the gas almost to the fuel tank, the exhaust pipe emitting thick black smoke, and disappeared at the intersection.

Pang Yong and the others didn't dare enter Jiangzhou. Zhou Andong said he had two regiments of people, which was quite a deterrent to them. Afraid of an ambush in Jiangzhou, they parked the car on the side of the national highway.

Rosy clouds appeared in the east, and a red sun jumped out from the horizon. The night had finally passed, but for Pang Yong, this night had made him lose all face. To wash away the humiliation he suffered tonight, he had to kill Zhou Andong.

"Boss!" Brother Hu, sitting in the passenger seat, said: "The people are back."

"Screech!"

Long Hair stopped the car beside the tiger-head Mercedes.

Pang Yong pushed the car door and got out. Seeing his wife and child were safe, he also let out a sigh of relief: "Get in the car!"

His wife was originally full of anger, but seeing her man's face swollen like a pig's head and his teeth leaking air as soon as he opened his mouth, her expression changed.

"What happened to you?"

"Nothing, hurry up and get in the car." For Pang Yong, Jiangzhou was too dangerous; returning to Fengjing as soon as possible was safe.

His wife didn't speak anymore and got into the car holding the child. She also knew that this was no place to stay long.

Zhou Andong said to Yao Jun: "Arrange it. Leave a few people on duty, and let the others go home to rest and come back to take over in the afternoon."

"Alright!" Yao Jun turned and left.

Gu Bing looked at Zhou Andong and asked: "What do you plan to do next?"

Zhou Andong stretched and stood up, saying: "This person Pang Yong must be eliminated, but making a move on him directly definitely won't work. Therefore, we must first tear open the network of relationships behind him."

Gu Bing said: "That won't be easy."

"It's not too difficult either." Zhou Andong walked out, "You find out who in the province and Fengjing are Tong family people."

Gu Bing followed Zhou Andong out: "No problem!"

Returning to the dormitory, Zhou Andong took a shower and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

When he woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. He came out and knocked on Gu Bing's bedroom door, but no one answered, so he guessed he was up.

Coming to the office, he made himself a cup of tea and picked up the provincial daily newspaper. A very eye-catching headline immediately attracted his attention, and then he laughed.
