Chapter 541: 537. Is Brother Rong Someone You Can See Just Because You Want To?

~8 min read 1,474 words

The boss is named Jin Meng, and he is considered a person of some name and reputation in the vicinity, especially in recent years, as he has been doing quite well for himself.

He does some demolition work, and once his connections were established, he took advantage of the momentum to engage in lending, earning quite a lot each year.

The reason he is working so hard this time is also because if he gets this matter done, he can take advantage of the momentum to enter the construction site and contract a project.

However, he still has a bit of a bottom line; he only used the children on the surface to scare Fei Lan and the others, without actually taking action, but this does not mean he is a person with a conscience.

Jin Meng looked at Zhang Ran and He Yong, his eyes filled with some doubt; he had never seen these two people before, and they were not people who hung around the area.

However, he didn't care that much, and bringing his underlings, he arrived in front of Lao Sun, took out the contract, and said, "Sign the contract."

Lao Sun took the contract and said in a low voice, "Brother Meng, I will sign the contract, but shouldn't you give Nannan to me first?"

Jin Meng put on an impatient look and said, "Sign the contract first, what are you blathering about?"

In any case, he was now flatly refusing to mention the matter of this Nannan; he would trick Lao Sun into signing the contract first and talk later.

Seeing him like this, anger that he could not suppress rose on Lao Sun's face, "Jin Meng, no one acts like you do; I have already said that as long as you give Nannan to us, I will definitely sign the contract."

"I didn't say I wouldn't give her to you, heh, do you think I don't know what you're planning? What? You want evidence to call the police?" Jin Meng sneered.

Facing such a situation, he already had a draft in his mind.

Upon hearing this, Lao Sun took a deep breath and said, "I don't, I just want the child to be safe and sound."

"Then stop talking nonsense and sign the contract," Jin Meng said.

Lao Sun's hands were trembling a little, but he still picked up the pen; it was at this moment that Zhang Ran spoke up, "So that means Nannan was taken by you people?"

Jin Meng had actually been keeping an eye on the two of them, Zhang Ran and the other, but Zhang Ran had not spoken before, appearing as if he were just there to make up the numbers.

At this moment, when Zhang Ran spoke, Jin Meng raised an eyebrow and said in a slouchy manner, "I didn't say that, and also, who are you? A policeman?"

After saying that, he looked at Lao Sun, while Lao Sun remained silent and did not speak.

Zhang Ran said with an expressionless face, "I am not a policeman; I am asking you one thing right now: is Nannan in your hands? Is she in any danger?"

Before Jin Meng could speak, the underling beside him bristled, "Who the hell are you? You dare talk to our boss like that? Do you believe I won't smack you?"

As he said this, he was about to rush up and smack Zhang Ran.

Jin Meng was very satisfied with his underling's actions, but he still reached out and stopped him, smiling as he said, "Brother, why don't you state your business? Let's not have the flood wash away the Dragon King's temple."

Zhang Ran said in a flat tone, "You aren't worthy."

Jin Meng's anger flared up instantly; those who hang around in this line of work generally have somewhat explosive tempers.

"Did I give you too much face? Do you believe I won't cut you?" Jin Meng pointed at Zhang Ran and started cursing.

Zhang Ran looked at his finger, expressionless.

But in the next moment, He Yong, who had been standing beside Zhang Ran the whole time, made a move; his figure flashed, and Jin Meng's finger was gripped by him, and then, without the slightest hesitation, he snapped it directly.

Jin Meng had never expected that Zhang Ran would act as soon as he said he would, and he had only been following the 'rules' by spouting a few harsh words first.

But the next moment, he had no mind to think about that; his finger was snapped instantly, and the intense pain slammed into his brain.

However, Jin Meng had been hanging around on the streets for quite some time, so he still had the ability to endure pain; of course, the main thing was that he knew he could not lose face in front of his underlings.

Many times, a large part of the reason his underlings followed him was for the sake of face, not just for money.

Seeing He Yong make a move and their boss's finger get snapped, the few underlings Jin Meng brought were suddenly enraged and were about to rush over directly.

Zhang Ran did not change his expression, but he began to roll up his sleeves, clearly intending to enter the fray himself.

However, he did not need to act; Jin Meng stopped his underlings, and enduring the pain, he said in a muffled voice, "Do you know who we are working for this time?"

"Who?" Zhang Ran said while slowly rolling up his sleeves.

"Rong Huaqiang, Brother Rong; no matter how capable you are, this time you must coil if you are a dragon, and you must lie down if you are a tiger," Jin Meng said hatefully.

It was just that while he was saying these words, he was still observing Zhang Ran's expression.

But he saw nothing; there was not a trace of expression on Zhang Ran's face, only indifference.

"Mm, I'll wait for him," Zhang Ran said flatly.

Jin Meng really could not gauge Zhang Ran's background; this young man was truly too calm, but it was also possible that Zhang Ran was deliberately putting on an act.

It was not as if such things had never happened before; some modern people had brains that were too flexible, and sometimes they acted so well that one could not help but believe them.

Just as Jin Meng was about to get ruthless and beat Zhang Ran up first, several cars drove over rapidly.

Zhao Hu led his men and ran down quickly; seeing Zhang Ran standing there safe and sound, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He Yong had called Zhao Hu over after learning about the situation; otherwise, if they really encountered some hot-headed fools, he himself wouldn't mind, but he could not let Zhang Ran encounter danger.

"Mr. Zhang." Zhao Hu stood obediently in front of He Yong.

Zhang Ran glanced at him and did not speak, but He Yong said, "You arrived later than I expected."

"I'm sorry, Brother Yong." Zhao Hu did not offer any explanation and admitted his mistake cleanly and decisively.

That group of underlings who were about to take action stopped one after another; they would not have the advantage if they fought with so many people.

Seeing Zhao Hu and these people, Jin Meng felt settled instead; this seemed to explain Zhang Ran's identity—he was just a street thug like him, at most a bit better at it than he was.

"Kid, state your business," Jin Meng said.

At this moment, his confidence was more sufficient than just a moment ago; although he himself was a thug, he also understood that a thug is a thug, and compared to some people, especially in Huaxia, thugs will never have a day to get ahead.

Unless they wash their hands of it, but in this current era, wanting to wash their hands of it? It is too, too difficult!

Zhang Ran looked at his appearance and knew what he was thinking, "It seems you won't be handing over Nannan now?"

"Heh!" Jin Meng sneered twice.

"Fine, I will let you die with a clear understanding today, and at the same time, I will tell you one thing: if anything happens to Nannan, you are definitely going to eat a bullet." Zhang Ran's voice remained flat.

But Jin Meng's heart skipped a beat.

"Make a phone call and have Rong Huaqiang come over," Zhang Ran said, looking down at Jin Meng.

Jin Meng sneered, "Is Brother Rong someone you can see just because you want to? Kid, don't think that having many people makes you something special; when the time comes..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was kicked to the ground by Zhang Ran; Zhang Ran was gradually losing his patience.
