Rich in the 70s: I Made a Rugged Veteran a Millionaire novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167: Chapter 167: Old Jiang Family

With a thud, Jiang Cheng’s hand instantly grasped the electric baton in the space.

She patted her face, trying to wake herself up a bit.

No way!

Not enough!

Jiang Cheng unscrewed the cap of the military canteen and splashed water on her face.

The already cold water made her feel a bit more alert.

A somewhat rejuvenated Jiang Cheng poured the remaining water over Director Lian’s head.

"Sister Lian?"

"Sister Lian?"

Director Lian slowly woke up, her mind foggy, looking at Jiang Cheng who was gesturing for her to be quiet.

"There’s a bad guy."

Jiang Cheng whispered, swiftly handing a kitchen knife to Director Lian.

Director Lian held the kitchen knife, her brain rebooting several times.

A kitchen knife? For what?

A click, the sound of the door latch being pried open.

Jiang Cheng stood behind the door, and Director Lian, following her lead, held the kitchen knife, continuing to feign sleep, her heart pounding with fear.

Footsteps got closer, someone pushing open the door.

Director Lian’s eyelids trembled, encountering such a situation for the first time, it was terrifying.

The door creaked open, pushed from the outside.

A foot stepped in first, a low laugh echoing in the silent night.

"Little beauty... I’m here... Ahhh——-"

The exclamation, rising and falling, like a donkey’s bray, reverberated.

Sparks crackled in Jiang Cheng’s hand, and after a dozen seconds, with a thud, the person fell to the ground.

The fallen person convulsed, twitching incessantly.

"It’s okay now, Sister Lian!"

Jiang Cheng flicked on the flashlight, illuminating the twitching figure on the ground, and kicked out with her left foot!

Aimed straight at the triangle area.

"Dare to make a move on me, really asking for it like a birthday star hanging himself."

While speaking, Jiang Cheng gave a couple more kicks.

Director Lian on the kang shifted from fear to bewilderment.

Is it over just like that?

None of the scenarios she imagined happened.

The key point is that the kitchen knife wasn’t even used!

Director Lian looked at the person on the ground and asked:

"Who is this?"

Jiang Cheng withdrew her foot, shaking her head.

"I don’t know, first wake up the team leader, then immediately go find Director Lu and the others."

"Yes, yes!"

Director Lian put on her shoes, scooping a ladle of cold water.

With a splash, the team leader and his wife were awakened.

The two listened to Director Lian, their first reaction was, are we dreaming?

Who would dare drug the team leader and then break into the house to cause trouble?

But when they saw the man tied up by Jiang Cheng, they almost exploded in anger.

The team leader kicked at the tied-up man wildly.

"I’ll kill you, you bastard!"

"You turtle’s son!"

The team leader’s wife hurriedly pulled him back.

"A few more kicks will do, but he can’t die here!"

The team leader gave a couple more kicks and finally stopped, staring at the man, looking him up and down.

"Who the hell is this?"

The team leader’s wife studied him for a moment and said: "Seems like Zhao Lao Gada’s nephew, he came a few days ago."

After hearing this, the team leader first looked at Jiang Cheng.

"Jiang Cheng, I swear to you, this has nothing to do with us!"

"If I knew this beast dared to do such a thing, I would have personally skinned him alive!"

Jiang Cheng remained calm.

"Team Leader, I know your character well."

The team leader saw that Jiang Cheng wasn’t blaming him, feeling even more guilty.

"Today, you must give us an explanation!"

Director Lu conveyed three messages.

The first, we have strong backing.

Second, if not handled properly, you won’t make any money.

Third, and most importantly, our comrade is unharmed, don’t spread false rumors.

The team leader naturally understood.

"Don’t worry, Director Lu, we won’t let this go lightly!"

"Zhao Lao Gada, step out! See if this is your nephew?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Called Zhao Lao Gada, gritting his teeth, looked at his nephew tied in the middle, feeling terrible.

"Zhang Dageng! You little bastard! What are you trying to do!"

The tied-up Zhang Dageng was so scared by the overwhelming scene, he nearly wet himself.

The team leader disdainfully spat, tearing off the smelly sock from his mouth.

"Zhang Dageng, you dare to come to our Red Flag Team and bully people!"

"Really giving you face!"

With a "pop", the team leader’s wide slap landed on Zhang Dageng’s face.

That face quickly swelled up.

Zhang Dageng whined, retreating.

"I’m sorry! I was wrong!"

The team leader snorted, questioning: "Speak, how did you drug us! Where did you get the drug?"

"If you don’t tell the truth, you won’t leave our Red Flag Team."

The team leader said harshly, under the firelight, there was even a murderous glint on his face.

Zhang Dageng was truly scared.

Because the number of deaths in the village, who knows how many have occurred.

Currently, it’s still a stage where the authorities don’t prosecute unless the people report.

"I’ll tell, I’ll tell!"

"I put the drug in the kerosene lamp!"

"The drug... the drug... was given by the Old Jiang Family!"

"The Old Jiang Family said they sold Jiang Cheng to me as a wife!"
