Chapter 805

~4 min read 637 words

"Sigh..." Wan Ping'an sighed and began to act pitiful, saying that the Second Elder Liu Haizhong had entered his room to steal his wine and had also taken his money.

After hearing this, Uncle Zhao frowned: "Ping'an, you're not right about this. Haizhong doesn't seem like that kind of person."

Wan Ping'an curled his lips: "Uncle Zhao, you don't understand him. I'm with him every day dealing with the courtyard's affairs, don't I understand him?"

Uncle Zhao sighed: "You, you're still too impulsive and too easy to trust others."

Wan Ping'an sighed: "And that Second Aunt is also helping the Second Elder Liu Haizhong speak. The two of them conspired to scam me. How can I accept this?"

"You..." Uncle Zhao shook his head, not knowing what else to say.

"I think you should also advise Liu Haizhong. If this matter gets too big, it won't be good for either of you."

"Sigh..." Uncle Zhao pondered for a moment: "Alright, I'll try. Ping'an, let's just let this matter go."

"No, I told him to compensate me for the money, but the Second Aunt and Liu Haizhong only wanted to pay five yuan. Could it be that my wine isn't even worth five yuan?"

"This..."

"I know you are kind-hearted and afraid of hurting feelings, but you have to think for me. I spend so much money on the courtyard every year, but I end up with this result. Can you make me feel comfortable?" Wan Ping'an said earnestly: "Uncle Zhao, I also know your intentions, but I really can't swallow this anger this time. I hate theft the most in my life!"

After finishing, Wan Ping'an didn't wait for Uncle Zhao to say anything and walked away quickly.

Watching Wan Ping'an's retreating back, Uncle Zhao muttered softly: "Sigh, this child is too stubborn..."

Wan Ping'an walked out of the courtyard and saw Yan Fugui strolling around the street.

"First Elder, what's going on? Who are you arguing with?" Yan Fugui asked with concern.

Wan Ping'an took a few deep breaths, adjusted his emotions, then squeezed out a smile, shook his head, and laughed: "Nothing, just had some conflict with the Second Elder."

"Then how is it now? Have you reconciled?"

"How is that possible? The Second Elder stole my family's wine and money and refuses to give it back. I'm planning to go home now and go find Liu Haizhong again. He's still a Second Elder and he does this kind of thing. Third Elder, don't you think so?"

·· Begging for flowers ·

Yan Fugui patted his chest: "Ping'an, I'll go with you."

"Hehe, no need, let's not implicate you in this matter." Wan Ping'an waved his hand in refusal, then turned and walked toward his own home.

Wan Ping'an pushed open the courtyard gate, glanced into the room, and saw no one, so he prepared to go to the small shop to buy a drink before coming back.

Wan Ping'an walked outside the courtyard, took the wine jar from home, and went to find Liu Haizhong. He had to make Liu Haizhong either pay the money or he would report him to the police.

Wan Ping'an walked to the door of Liu Haizhong's house, raised his leg, kicked open the door, and glared at Liu Haizhong, who was sitting on the bed.

When Liu Haizhong saw that it was Wan Ping'an coming to find trouble, he was startled, hurriedly stood up, and said nervously: "Wan Ping'an, why are you here again? You, what are you doing?"

Wan Ping'an pointed to a tin wine container he was holding and questioned: "Is this the jar of wine you took from my house?"

Liu Haizhong nodded: "Mm, yes, it is."

"You still dare to admit it?" Wan Ping'an threw the tin wine container onto the ground and roared.
