Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 1296: Falling into a trap
When no one noticed, Fu Baoshan, who seemed to be unconscious due to the torture, suddenly showed a strange smile on his face.

It seems that everything is under control, or it indicates that some unknown conspiracy is about to surface.

At the same time, on the other side of the street, the Third Master was extremely angry because he failed to get what he wanted.

He angrily shuttled through the intricate alleys, and the ground thumped with every step, as if he wanted to turn the resentment in his heart into strength.

Finally, he came to a seemingly ordinary courtyard.

The Third Master stopped and stared at the closed door, a complicated look flashing in his eyes.

He lingered at the gate of the courtyard for a long time, until he saw the strange looks from the residents around him, and finally he made up his mind and took that step.

"Boom boom boom!"

The heavy knock on the door echoed in the quiet courtyard, breaking the original tranquility.

Inside the door, a handsome young man in gorgeous clothes was leisurely sipping tea. As the tea aroma wafted in the air, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Hearing the knock on the door, the teacup in his hand paused slightly, then gently put it down, and his action revealed a hint of imperceptible irritation.

Beside him, a servant immediately understood and respectfully stepped aside, ready to obey orders.

"Go and see who it is." He ordered calmly. Although his voice was light, it carried unquestionable majesty.

After a moment, the tall and strong Jinzhong poked his head out from the crack of the door, quickly glanced at the person outside the door, and then turned around and reported to the inside of the house: "Master, it's Master Hu San."

Hearing the word "Tiger Three", the young man's face instantly became gloomy. He frowned slightly, and a trace of disgust and impatience flashed in his eyes.

He looked around at the simple courtyard with disgust in his eyes.

waste!

A bunch of trash!
I can't even protect such a small thing.

He cursed in his heart, feeling extremely dissatisfied that "Tiger Three" couldn't even protect something and had to suffer as a result.

But now that things have come to this, he can only suppress his anger and get the thing back as soon as possible.

"Let him in."

The young man waved his hand casually, with a bit of contempt in his tone, obviously not taking Hu San's visit seriously.

The door was pushed open with a creaky sound. Hu San quickly adjusted his expression and gave the person who opened the door an eager smile. This smile no longer contained the arrogance he had when he interrogated Fu Baoshan.

Jinzhong looked at Hu San, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

Based on their years of friendship, he lowered his voice and reminded, "Master Tiger, you really didn't handle this matter thoroughly enough. The young master is very dissatisfied with this."

Upon hearing this, Hu San nodded vigorously and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you for the reminder, brother. I'll make a note of it."

However, the alarm bells in his heart had already sounded, and he had a feeling that something was not going well.

"It's bad!" Hu San's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

He had some understanding of the temper of the Third Young Master. Although he usually did not show his true colors, once his bottom line was touched, his methods would be extremely vicious.

At this moment, he could only hope that the young master was in a good mood today and would not vent his anger on him.

Walking into the room, Hu San immediately saw the young man sitting in the main seat. He quickly stepped forward with a flattering smile on his face: "Third Young Master, why did you come here in person? This is such a small matter, I shouldn't bother you."

Hearing this, the young man sneered and put the teacup in his hand down heavily with a loud clang.

He interrupted Hu San. "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that you guys could do such a thing. The news has even reached my father's ears!"

His words were full of anger and disappointment, and when he mentioned his father, his face became terribly gloomy, like the calm before the storm.

He was born to his father and his second wife. He has two older brothers born to his father and his first wife, and he also has twins, a boy and a girl, born to his father and his third wife.

In addition, his biological mother did not have any background, unlike his father's first wife, who was a family marriage with intertwined interests. His two elder brothers were also highly valued and had begun to accept the power of their family.

Although his father's third wife also had no background, she was beautiful and nearly 20 years younger than his father.

The old man married a young wife. The woman was sweet-talking and good at coaxing people. She also gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, for his father. Naturally, she was very much loved.

He is the only one who is neither up nor down. He is not as valued as his two older brothers, nor as favored as the twins.

I finally managed to snatch a job from a group of brothers, but it caused a big mess.

I had hoped to use this incident to gain my father's attention, so that I could get more things, or even...

If he does things well, taking this incident as a starting point, his weight in his father's eyes will gradually increase, and he may eventually surpass his eldest brother.

But now it's all ruined.

Not to mention leaving a good impression on my father, it would be great if I wasn't accused of being incompetent.

When Hu San heard the young man mention his father, he trembled all over. It was a kind of awe and fear that came from the bottom of his heart.

He knew very well that although the Third Young Master was ruthless, what really frightened him was the old master who lived in seclusion but was extremely powerful.

Hu San hurriedly bowed, his tone filled with urgency and pleading: "Third Young Master, please give me another three days. I swear, I will pry the whereabouts of that thing out of Fu Baoshan's mouth no matter what this time."

There was determination in his voice, but a hint of panic was hidden in his eyes.

The young man glanced at him coldly, and that look seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, which made Hu San shiver.

He snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Give you three days? What about me? Who can give me three days?"

Hearing this, Hu San felt bitter in his heart. He regretted that he was greedy and put himself in such a passive situation for the sake of a little profit.

Hu San felt bitter in his heart. He realized that he was really blinded by greed and took on this hot potato.

Now, he can only bear the consequences silently and try his best to make up for it.

Seeing that the young man's expression eased a little after venting his anger, Hu San felt a little relieved.

The young man's expression seemed to ease after venting his anger.

He took the teacup handed to him respectfully by Jinzhong, took a sip, and then said coldly: "I will give you another three days, but remember, these three days are your last chance. If you haven't found your things after three days, you don't have to come to see me again."

When Hu San heard this, cold sweat broke out on his back again.

He knew very well that the young master's words "no need to come back" were not as simple as the literal meaning, but meant to take his life.

"Master San, please rest assured. I will definitely bring that thing back to see you within three days. If I can't do it, I, Hu San, will be at your disposal."

A barely perceptible hint of satisfaction flashed across the young man's eyes, and he nodded, accepting Hu San's assurance.

Hu San broke out in a cold sweat, and he nodded repeatedly, promising that he would get the things back in three days at most. Leaving the courtyard, Hu San's footsteps were heavy and slow, and every step seemed to crush the resentment and anger in his heart.

His face cast a long shadow in the setting sun, appearing particularly cold, like frost condensed in winter, revealing a majesty and depth that should not be underestimated.

He looked at the courtyard coldly, and no one knew what he was thinking.

His younger brothers had been waiting at the street corner. When they saw Hu San coming out, they hurried over to meet him.

"Third Master!"

"Third Master!"

After learning about the third young master's attitude just now, before Hu San said anything, his younger brothers felt sorry for him.

"Third Master, you are just going to put up with it like that. He is just a brat, is it worth it for us to put up with him like that?"

The Third Master said in a deep voice: "It's not him I tolerate, it's the person behind him."

"But Third Master, this is too much. You are his senior after all, and he dares to do this to you."

"That's right, Third Master. If he dares to treat you like this now, he will definitely ignore you in the future."

Brothers, you were talking to each other, and Hu San's face became more and more gloomy.

Nu did not directly respond to the indignation of his subordinates, but stopped and looked into the distance with a deep gaze, as if he was penetrating the night and examining the more complicated situation.

Upon seeing this, the subordinates fell silent. They only felt that the aura emanating from the Third Master was colder than usual, making them dare not act rashly.

"I'm not tolerating that arrogant kid." Hu San finally spoke, his voice low and powerful, every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth: "It's the person behind him. I, Hu San, will remember today's humiliation in my heart, but I need to be calm and plan for the future."

He turned to look at his brothers beside him, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, "I, Hu San, appreciate your kindness. But now is not the time to act on impulse, we must hold back. One day, I will let them know the price of despising me."

Duan Shan took the opportunity to get close to Hu San and gestured: "Master San, do you want me to teach him a lesson?"

Hu San shook his head: "Let's deal with Fu Baoshan's matter first. After we get the things back, we'll think of another way."

There was a gleam of ruthlessness in his eyes. Even if he was his father, he had to give him some face.

How dare a young boy like that speak ill of him?

He, Hu San, might not accomplish anything, but it wouldn't be difficult for him to ruin someone's good fortune.

If you offend him and still want to get promoted to a higher position in the future, you’re dreaming!
I wonder if the eldest young master knows the little thoughts of the third young master who always behaves cowardly.

hum!

Hu San started walking again, and his back gradually walked away in the night.

The third young master in the courtyard at this moment probably doesn't know how much trouble this Hu San, whom he doesn't take seriously, will bring to his path to power?
On the other side, Zhang Yu had no idea that the thing he accidentally obtained had such a great origin.

Zhang Yu stood at the exit of the train station, surrounded by pedestrians passing by in a hurry.

Before he could put down the package in his hand, he was surrounded by a group of uninvited guests.

Zhang Yu looked up and saw that the person walking in front was the one who tried to steal his wallet on the train that day.

The other person stood in front of him with a look of smugness and arrogance on his face.

Behind the man were five or six companions with equally unfriendly looks. They surrounded Zhang Yu tightly.

"Brother, it's him. This kid must have something good on him." He pointed at Zhang Yu, his tone full of greed and eagerness, as if Zhang Yu had become their prey.

A man who was obviously the leader came forward and glanced at Zhang Yu with disdain in his eyes: "Boy, you are the one who bullied my brother."

Zhang Yu was so angry that he laughed at his words.

With the boss's support, the thief became even more unscrupulous. He pointed at Zhang Yu and threatened, "Boy, you'd better be smart and hand over your wallet or something. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

His companions behind him also echoed each other, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

"What if I don't give it to you?" Zhang Yu snorted coldly and took out the stun gun from the space with the help of his backpack.

"Aren't you afraid that I will call the police?"

The other party didn't seem to be afraid of the police at all. The leading man sneered: "Call the police? Do you think we will be afraid? Boy, you are still too naive."

Zhang Yu was startled. The other party was so bold, he must have someone behind him.

But he did not retreat, instead he took two steps forward.

Faced with these bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong, retreating will only make them more arrogant.

So, he deliberately slowed down his movements, held the stun gun in his hand, and said in a calm and firm tone: "Whether calling the police will work or not, you will know if you try it and see if the person behind you can protect you. Why don't we compete to see who is more capable, me or you."

The leading man obviously didn't expect Zhang Yu to be so tough. His face changed slightly, but soon returned to that disdainful expression. He waved his hand, signaling the thugs to get ready to take action.

However, at this moment of tense confrontation, a shout suddenly broke the frozen air.

"stop!"

"The police are here!" Several gangsters couldn't help but exclaim.

Seeing his uncle, Zhang Yu's face lit up, and he stretched out his hand and greeted him, "Uncle!"

When the leading man saw Zhao Wenzhuo's police uniform and heard Zhang Yu call him "uncle-in-law", a trace of fear flashed across his face.

The originally arrogant thugs behind him suddenly lost their composure. The leading man's face turned pale. He glared at Zhang Yu fiercely, then cursed in a low voice and quickly disappeared into the crowd with his men.

The thief also tried to slip away during the chaos, but Zhang Yu quickly grabbed his arm.

"Want to run? Not that easy!" Zhang Yu said coldly.

The people following behind Zhao Wenzhuo also acted quickly and surrounded the scene.

Zhao Wenzhuo looked at Zhang Yu with a worried look on his face: "Xiaoyu, are you okay?"

Zhang Yu stretched his limbs to indicate that he was fine.

Then he asked curiously, "Uncle, why are you here?"

Seeing that his nephew was fine, Zhao Wenzhuo smiled more and explained, "I came here for a meeting today. I heard from my colleagues on duty at the train station that the train you were on would arrive soon, so I wanted to wait for you to go back together. It just so happened that I drove the car from the institute here today."

After saying that, he turned around and asked what was going on with Zhang Yu and his gang?

Zhang Yu recounted what happened on the train.

As soon as he finished speaking, the thugs who tried to escape were controlled one by one by the police who arrived later.
