Chapter 1378 The Price of Arrogance (Part 1)

The evil-faced man gave the order, and three followers rushed over behind him. Without any explanation, they threw everything on the table to the ground.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound, the ground was covered with broken bowls, and the soup from the dishes was splashed everywhere.

The three members of Diao Deyou's family were so frightened that they turned pale and hid in the corner shivering.

Diao Deyou instinctively protected his wife and little girl in front of him, looked at the evil-faced man with frightened eyes, trembling and begging for mercy: "Three, third brother..."

"Call Mr. San!" a follower shouted arrogantly.

"Third Master, I, our whole family just got together to have a meal. I, I have already booked my train tickets for tomorrow and will leave Wujia Town immediately."

The evil-faced man glared, pointed at Diao Deyou's nose and shouted: "I told you a long time ago that I told you to get out years ago, but you still linger on, it's shameless."

As he said that, he spit out a mouthful of sticky phlegm on Diao Deyou.

The phlegm just happened to spit on Diao Deyou's face, and he didn't dare to wipe it away. He repeatedly cupped his hands and clasped his fists, admitting his mistake.

The evil-faced man brought people in, and the diners nearby got up and left their seats, hiding and watching from a distance.

Soon, more and more people gathered to watch.

Whispering, pointing, and discussing.

At this time, a chubby man in his fifties squeezed through the crowd and greeted the evil-faced man with a smile, "Third Master, why didn't you let me know when you were here so that I could greet you at the door?"

The evil-faced man warned angrily: "Fan, you dare to entertain this bastard Diao Deyou, I don't think your hotel will continue to operate!"

"I'm really sorry. I didn't know they came to dinner. It's my fault. I apologize to you."

"Just apologizing is useless!" a follower yelled, pointing at Diao Deyou and yelling, "They Diao family members killed our boss's brother, so it's very kind to let him take a breath. And they dare to sit here and eat openly,

This is to stir up trouble on Tai Sui's head and bully him."

"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Boss Fan bowed and apologized again, "Third Master, please calm down, I will kick them out right now. Your private room is ready, let's go upstairs and chat slowly..."

When the evil-faced man heard that there was a drink, he finally did not continue to use force. He pointed at Diao Deyou and made a warning gesture. He turned around and walked towards the stairs surrounded by Boss Fan and a group of younger brothers. He walked towards the stairs with steps that he did not recognize.

The crowd who were watching the excitement automatically made a way for them to pass.

He had just taken two steps when he heard someone behind him shout loudly: "Stop!"

The evil-faced man was stunned, frowned, and looked back. Next to Diao Deyou was a tall man in his forties, staring at him with piercing eyes.

Yes, this was exactly what Li Yuanlang shouted.

"You threw all my food on the ground, what can I say about this!"

The evil-faced man curled his lips, was too lazy to talk to Li Yuanlang, and snorted disdainfully.

Upon seeing this, Boss Fan hurriedly apologized to Li Yuanlang, "Sir, it's my fault for delaying your meal. I apologize to you. I'll have someone give you another portion right now. The money for the meal is mine. I'll pay for it."

Li Yuanlang did not continue to pester, not because he did not want to intervene.

Under the current situation, if the identity is exposed, it is very likely that nothing will be found.

It's better to keep a low profile, observe the changes, understand clearly and then make plans.

As the evil-faced man and others disappeared at the top of the stairs, the diners returned to their seats one after another.

Li Yuanlang grabbed a few tissues from another table and handed them to Diao Deyou.

Diao Deyou thanked you again, wiped the dirt on his face, and said with a wry smile: "Comrade, I'm sorry for causing you to get involved."

At this time, several hotel waiters came, and while cleaning up, they persuaded Diao Deyou and his family to leave quickly.

He also arranged for Li Yuanlang to sit down again and prepared to serve him a meal.

How can you still be in the mood to eat?

Li Yuanlang waved his hand to refuse and went to the bar to pay.

He was not the only one, and he also befriended Diao Deyou and others.

Because the boss spoke, the cashier confiscated the money at first.

But Li Yuanlang couldn't stand it anymore and insisted again and again, and finally settled the payment according to the price.

When Li Yuanlang walked out of the hotel, he saw the lonely figures of Diao Deyou and his family in the cold night, and felt mixed emotions in his heart.

He quickly caught up with him and called to Diao Deyou, "Old comrade, you haven't eaten, okay? Let's go to another restaurant and I'll treat you."

Diao Deyou shook his head in disappointment, "Sheng San has spoken. No restaurant dares to receive us. Anyway, we are full. Thank you for your kindness. Thank you."

Li Yuanlang didn't want to miss the opportunity to learn more and asked about the reason.

Diao Deyou was very cautious and denied repeatedly.

On the other hand, his wife couldn't help but complain, "It's not because our surname is Diao and we have taken advantage of Diao Xigui!"

Diao Xigui?

Li Yuanlang's brain quickly activated the memory cells, and finally remembered the name of the suspect who killed Huang Yuanrong.

"Are you relatives of Diao Xigui?"

Diao Deyou had no choice but to say: "I am his cousin, and this is his daughter..."

It was the little girl he was talking about.

Li Yuanlang was startled. According to the information provided by Meng Xianxin, Diao Xigui's parents were dead and he was alone with no worries. Where did he get his daughter?

This is strange.

While talking, he walked to the door of Diao Deyou's house.

This is a bungalow. Judging from the outline, the house is old.

At any rate, Li Yuanlang was kind to him, and because of his own fault, others were not able to have a good meal.

Diao Deyou politely allowed Li Yuanlang to come in and have a seat.

Li Yuanlang had exactly this intention.

Diao Deyou's family is not wealthy, they only have two huts, and they are very cold.

Although there was a fire, several pieces of glass were missing from the windows, which were covered with plastic sheets and could not withstand the cold wind.

Diao Deyou sighed, and his wife told Li Yuanlang that since Diao Xigui ran away, Sheng San and his people came to the house every day to make trouble, and they were the ones who broke the windows.

Diao Deyou went to find someone to install the glass, but no one dared to answer Sheng San's greeting, so he had to use a few pieces of plastic sheeting to deal with it.

"We're moving out anyway. We won't be cold after tonight." His wife looked pale and helpless.

Li Yuanlang was filled with indignation and said angrily: "This is simply too much. Even if Diao Xigui is suspected and not guilty as much as his family, Sheng San and his gang are so bold that no one will care about him!"

Diao Deyou's wife complained: "Who dares to take care of it? Sheng San is the top tyrant in Wujia Town. If he calls the police, he will be released. Anyone who calls the police will suffer his revenge. We have been used to it for many years.

Already."

Diao Deyou lowered his head and smoked a cigarette. Suddenly he realized something and asked: "Comrade, what is your name? What do you do?"

At this time, Li Yuanlang did not hide his identity and simply revealed his identity, "My surname is Li, my name is Li Yuanlang, and I am the secretary of Lanqiao."

Immediately, he took out his ID from his pocket and handed it to Diao Deyou.

Diao Deyou's nervous hand shook and the cigarette butt fell to the ground.

He quickly took his work permit and checked it carefully, and then asked doubtfully: "Are you really the secretary of the municipal party committee?"

Li Yuanlang smiled slightly and said, "It's guaranteed to be fake."

After Diao Deyou confirmed again, he knelt down in front of Li Yuanlang with a plop and cried bitterly: "Secretary Li, you must make the decision for us."

Seeing this, his wife pulled the confused little girl and knelt down too.

Li Yuanlang hurriedly helped up the family of three and tried to comfort them.

Diao Deyou burst into tears, as if he had met a great savior, and poured out all the resentment buried in his heart towards Li Yuanlang.

Sheng San is Sheng Lin's younger brother. Relying on Sheng Lin's protection, he runs rampant in Wujia Town.

Last year, Sheng Lin asked all the merchants in the town to replace them with such depressing plaques, and sent them all to Sheng Sankai's plaque maker, charging each merchant 3,000 yuan.

Everyone knows that for a plaque that costs less than one thousand, the Sheng brothers can make a lot of money.

Someone once reported to the county with his real name.

Soon he was beaten violently by Sheng San and his men, and he was hospitalized for half a month.

After he was discharged from the hospital, the Wujia Town Police Station called him and asked him to come and mediate in person.

As a result, his words did not go as planned. As soon as he walked out of the police station, he was caught by Sheng San's people and put into a car. He was beaten and kicked again, forcing him to reconcile.

This man sensed Sheng San's power and openly attacked him at the door of the police station, which is enough to show how powerful his background is.

Diao Deyou told a few more stories about Sheng San's crimes, all of which were lawless and arrogant acts.

Li Yuanlang interjected: "Master Diao, Sheng San targeted you and your family because of Diao Xigui. As far as I know, Diao Xigui is alone, how could there be..."

He glanced at the poor little girl.

"Go and take Yanyan to the inner room. Secretary Li and I have something to say."

With a look from Diao Deyou, his wife led the little girl out obediently.

"Alas!" Diao Deyou sighed and handed Li Yuanlang a cigarette.

"No." Li Yuanlang waved his hand.
