Chapter 114: Want to Pull and Eat the Skewers

While the two were talking.

Li Jiaci took his phone and walked out.

He called the bureau, intending to find Liu Yanxi, but the other party told him she had been summoned by Bureau Chief Zhao.

Having no choice, Li Jiaci told the person on the phone, Maozi: "I'm the boss of Shiqiang Mu Cai Chang, Li Jiaci. I want to publicly report that Zheng Degui, the manager of Nian Yong Mu Cai Chang, is involved in gangland and evil activities, repeatedly assaulting and threatening my drivers and staff, and damaging our transport vehicles!"

"Understood, we'll verify it as soon as possible!"

The other party hung up.

Li Jiaci was a bit displeased, muttering: "What kind of attitude…"

For such a serious violent incident, they didn't even investigate thoroughly; at the very least they should ask about the injuries.

At that moment, Wang Yingna walked over.

She handed Li Jiaci a piece of bread, then stretched her neck to curiously glance at the two people inside the office.

"Brother Jiaci, I heard you brought back two people from Bei Bang Guo?"

"And there's a woman too?"

Li Jiaci put away his phone and replied perfunctorily: "Well, they're here to visit the lumber mill; the two countries have different customs, so don't loiter around here and don't cause me trouble!"

Hearing that, Wang Yingna snorted and rolled her eyes.

"I'm not a child; how could I constantly cause you trouble?"

"Besides, people from Bei Bang Guo aren't that rare—I can go to Jiangcheng anytime I want to see them!"

"I'm just worried you'll get hurt!"

"Zhao Chen told me you ran into trouble again on your way back!"

"If this keeps up, it won't do—I'll have my brother step in and give Zheng Degui a warning!"

"Let's see if he dares to bully you in the future!"

Wang Yingna took Li Jiaci's hand and gave it a slight shake.

After getting through the fourth stage of withdrawal, this guy's whole personality changed, becoming much more obedient than before.

Naturally, her obedience is only visible to Li Jiaci.

If others accidentally provoke her, they can only fend for themselves.

Li Jiaci bit into the bread, his words muffled.

"This little matter doesn't need to bother your brother!"

After saying that, he suddenly thought of something and shifted gears: "When I need him, I can still look for him later!"

Wang Yingna laughed: "That's more like it—there's nothing my brother can't handle!"

Li Jiaci ruffled her hair.

By afternoon.

Li Yihu bought some boxed meals and brought them back, distributing them to the workers present.

Worried that Xiao Cui and Jin Ailing wouldn't be used to the local flavors, Li Jiaci took the opportunity to cook personally, stewing a pot of pork belly with cabbage and serving it with noodles soaked in the broth—it was incredibly fresh and fragrant.

Liu Jiang set up a grill on the empty ground of the dormitory, skewered meat and vegetables, sprinkled on spices, and grilled them until they sizzled and oozed oil.

The aroma spread everywhere.

Jin Ailing had eaten nothing since noon; smelling that scent, she couldn't help licking her lips.

"What's that so fragrant?"

Xiao Cui stood at the doorway, smiling: "You should ask Boss Li—he made it!"

Hearing that, Jin Ailing was somewhat surprised, having thought that guy only knew how to talk big.

A moment later.

Li Jiaci carried a basin of stewed pork belly with cabbage and noodles into the office.

He also took two plates of skewers and a bunch of peeled garlic from Zhao Chen.

"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and eat while it's hot!"

Li Jiaci urged them on.

All that could be seen was Jin Ailing picking up her chopsticks and poking at the skewer plate.

"You don't need chopsticks—this is meant to be eaten by pulling it off with your hands!"

"Pull? What does that mean?"

"Pulling—you know, uh, just watch me demonstrate and you'll get it!"

Li Jiaci picked up a skewer and demonstrated the pulling motion for her.

This bold, unrestrained way of eating genuinely surprised Jin Ailing.

On the other hand, Xiao Cui picked it up quickly.

A bite of skewer, a bite of garlic—the fragrance was endless.

Seeing that it had grown dark outside, Li Jiaci smiled on the surface but felt a bit anxious inside.

How come there's still no movement from the bureau?

Thinking back, when they arrested him they were quite diligent!

"You go ahead and eat; I'll step out to make a call!"

Li Jiaci lowered his head and walked out.

He took out his phone and dialed the bureau.

The same person answered the phone.

"Hello, this is Li Jiaci—how's the investigation into what I reported earlier going?"

On the other end, Maozi said in a perfunctory tone: "The bureau's a bit busy; we'll look into your complaint when we have time. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

"Is this your attitude towards handling the case?" Li Jiaci couldn't help raising his voice.

"Li Jiaci, do you not understand first come, first served? Don't think that just because you've come a few times you can do as you please. I tell you, handling a case also requires following order; it hasn't come to your turn yet, so just wait honestly!"

I didn't expect Maozi's temper to be so fiery.

Fine, fine!

Li Jiaci hung up the phone.

You're lining up, right?

First come, first served, right?

You might as well just say you were bribed by Zheng Degui!

Money can make ghosts push millstones!

Li Jiaci let out a cold laugh, directly pulled up Wang Zhen's phone number, and dialed it.

Hey, Wang Zhen, I need a favor!

……

Under the night sky.

Suddenly a group of reporters appeared at the entrance of Mu Cai Chang.

Liu Jiang felt a bit dazed, secretly wondering if the previous case hadn't ended yet.

Just then, Li Jiaci walked over and opened the factory's big door.

Brother... what's going on?

Liu Jiang pulled him and asked.

I'll explain later; first let them in!

Li Jiaci gave a glance.

Thus Liu Jiang also had to comply, pushing the door to both sides.

A large number of reporters surged into Mu Cai Chang.

Under Li Jiaci's leadership, the crowd came to the office door.

The glaring flashlight struck Xiao Cui's face as he was skewering meat.

Before he could swallow the skewer, a reporter shoved a microphone in his face.

Jin Ailing looked displeased, put down her chopsticks, and said coldly, "Who let you come?"

The reporters on site spoke all at once, quickly drowning out her voice.

I heard that upon your first visit to Huaguo, you were immediately threatened by a gang of thugs?

If Bei Bang Guo knew about this, would it constitute an international dispute?

What punishment is there for black-and-evil gangs caught in Bei Bang Guo?

How are your injuries?

……

The endless questions made both of them feel uncomfortable.

Xiao Cui spat out the skewer from his mouth, his face stern, and said: "We haven't agreed to accept the interview; please leave immediately!"

Just then Li Jiaci walked in from outside, took off his coat and placed it in front of the two of them.

Please give us five minutes!

Outside the office, Zhao Chen held a fragrant skewer.

You're hungry, right? Want some skewers?

The reporters glanced at Li Jiaci's expression, then all retreated with their equipment.

Li Jiaci closed the door.

As he turned around, Xiao Cui landed a heavy punch to his abdomen.

What do you mean?

You didn't discuss it with us at all, just let the reporters in for an interview?

Do you know how much trouble this will cause us?

Li Jiaci covered his abdomen with one hand and put his arm around his shoulder with the other.

This guy, his strike is really ruthless.
