Chapter 817: Unpredictable Winds and Clouds

Wan Ping'an looked at the scene before him and spoke.

Zhou Tao gave a chuckle and said, "That's for sure. Although this rolling mill looks very bright and glamorous on the surface, it has done quite a few dirty deeds behind the scenes!"

"Oh? There's actually such a thing?" Wan Ping'an was extremely astonished.

"Brother Ping'an, this steel rolling mill isn't just an ordinary enterprise; it involves too many things. You could even say it's the most profitable place in the entire Four-Nine City. Therefore, bad things happen repeatedly and cannot be stopped," Sun Hao said.

"Then what do you plan to do?"

"What can we do? After all, we are just ordinary citizens; we can't fight them."

"Isn't it not very good to do it this way?" Wan Ping'an said.

"No choice, we are all poor people; we can't afford to provoke these masters," Sun Hao said.

He Yuzhu patted Wan Ping'an on the shoulder and said, "Brother Ping'an, you are different."

"How am I different from those other big bosses?" Wan Ping'an asked in confusion.

"Because Brother Ping'an, you are formidable. You even dare to lecture someone like Yi Zhonghai. If he dared to touch a single hair on you, even his wife wouldn't be able to protect him."

He Yuzhu gave a chuckle.

Wan Ping'an rolled his eyes at He Yuzhu and said, "You talk too much. Alright, I can't be bothered to pay attention to you."

"Brother Ping'an, what I said came from the bottom of my heart. If I had your courage, I would also dare to beat that bastard Yi Zhonghai!" He Yuzhu said with absolute certainty.

"Get lost!"

"Brother Ping'an, by scolding me like that, are you not treating me as a brother?"

"Pah! With your IQ, are you even worthy of being my brother?" Wan Ping'an said with disdain.

Sun Hao looked at Wan Ping'an and He Yuzhu, shook his head, and said, "Hey, you two are enough. If you keep arguing like this, be careful about getting caught by the patrol soldiers."

"The patrol team?" Wan Ping'an asked.

"That's right, they are here on duty," Zhou Tao said.

"Let's go, let's find a quiet place to chat," He Yuzhu said.

"Good."

Consequently, the four of them came to a bamboo forest not far from the steel rolling mill.

Inside the bamboo forest, the four of them sat on stone stools.

Zhou Tao picked up the teapot on the table, helped fill the tea for Wan Ping'an, Sun Hao, and He Yuzhu, and said with a smile, "I say, you two are really something. Arguing last night was one thing; at worst, I'll treat you this afternoon. But there was no need to argue right after waking up this morning, after all, you are both classmates."

Sun Hao smiled and said, "Fine, anyway, it's all for the sake of brothers, so arguing a bit doesn't matter, but next time don't drag me into the argument; I still want to live a few more years."

"Brother Sun Hao, don't worry, this time I guarantee it won't happen again!"

Wan Ping'an also said, "Alright, from now on we are still brothers."

"That's fine, come, cheers!"

Zhou Tao raised the cup in his hand.

Next, the four of them clinked their cups and drank it all in one gulp.

After finishing the wine, Zhou Tao said, "By the way, Ping'an, you'll be leaving in a while, right? Are you still going to the steel rolling mill?"

"Hmm, in a while, you two just wait for me outside. I'll go check the situation first," Wan Ping'an said indifferently.

"Brother Ping'an, how about I accompany you inside?" Sun Hao suggested.

Wan Ping'an shook his head and said, "There's no need for that, I can manage alone."

Zhou Tao nodded and then said, "Alright then."

"By the way, Brother Ping'an, if there is anything you need help with, remember to call me; I will definitely support you with all my might."

"Hmm," Wan Ping'an replied softly. ===== CHAPTER 819 =====
