Chapter Ten No distinction between you and me

  The next day, he came to the construction site and gave a reply to the project manager, feeling that he could handle this job. The project manager patted Yang Mu's shoulder and said with emphasis:

  "The company wants to cultivate young people like you. The platform has already been given to you, it's up to you to play well now. Work hard, young man."

  "Thank you, manager."

  "You're no longer green now, you can be considered a leader too, from now on just call me Old Wei."

  "How can I be so presumptuous as to address you in such a familiar way? You are my superior, far surpassing me in both seniority and ability."

  "Alright, kid, go ahead."

  After coming out of the office, Yang Mu briefly got acquainted with his subordinates and asked them to arrange themselves for today, then rushed to the police station.

  The great father has been waiting here all along, but he hasn't come in yet, which is something Yang Mu didn't expect.

  "Uncle, why didn't you go in? Lezi and Jinyang are both inside."

  He said perfunctorily:

  "The air outside is better than the air inside."

  "Alright then, let's go in together."

  Jin Yang seemed to have been waiting for their arrival all along. Before Yang Mu even saw her, she was already smiling and walking towards them.

  "Have you arrived?"

  The old man nodded and looked around as if he was looking for something fun. Jin Yang also understood his meaning and said to them:

  "Please sit down and have a drink of water. Lèzi is inside talking to the leader, it shouldn't be a big problem. Later on, you can add more effort and it will be over soon."

  Just as he was saying that, Lezi walked out from inside. The old man immediately stood up, holding the cup of water and walking towards Lezi with a trembling gait.

  The water in the cup had already spilled out. At this time, instead of saying that Yangmu was carefully observing Lao Yezi, it would be better to say that he was staring at Leizi's every move and gesture.

  Fortunately, he did not completely disappoint Yang Mu, and still trotted forward to hold the old man's arm, then glanced at Yang Mu's expression.

  "Uncle, I've already talked to our leader about it. As long as Jin Yang's dad keeps a lid on things upstairs, we can just delete the photos we took that night and everything will be fine."

  "That's really thanks to you, it's his good fortune to have a good friend like you."

  Le Zi said "where" with his mouth, but his eyes turned to Yang Mu's face, because he knew that Yang Mu must have also heard the sentence just now.

  In the evening, Yang Mu accompanied Old Master to "have the honor" of attending a regular dinner party held at Lezi's place and stayed by Lezi's side all along.

  "Director Wang, it's too much trouble for you to bother with such a small matter."

  The old man stood up with his cup and said to Director Wang, who looked older than him but had to show respect at this time.

  "This is natural, your son didn't do anything seriously wrong. With a father like you who knows what's important for our development, this time you've made a great effort. I believe your son will definitely become a useful talent in the future. The only thing is, have you taken care of the matter above?"

  At this time, Yuezi answered first:

  "I've already made all the arrangements, and the relevant documents will be returned tomorrow."

  Wang Shouzhang suddenly turned his gaze to Lezi and stared at him for a long time without speaking, after all, what he said was not trivial.

  "That's good, that's good, old man. You just wait peacefully for your son to return safe and sound."

  The old man had no choice but to follow Wang's lead and laugh along, making Yang Mu look very displeased.

  "Director Wang, I've long heard from Lezi that his leader is formidable. Today, we two brothers can finally experience it for ourselves."

  "That won't do, you two sturdy young fellows, how can I compare with you."

  "We're just a bunch of country bumpkins, how can we compare with your drinking capacity? It's all just for the thrill of it."

  Wang looked at Lezi beside him and seemed to have a plan in mind. His previous words still made himself feel uneasy, so he had no choice but to agree to Yangmu's request.

  It's clear that Wang Zuo is no match for them, and even if he were to team up with someone else, he would still be no match. Not to mention two people. You should know that during the time when Dan Ya just left, not only did Yang Mu's drinking capacity increase, but also Le Zi and Bang Bang's drinking capacity increased greatly along with Yang Mu.

  The crowd dispersed, and Lezi was already drunk, being supported onto the car by Jinyang. Yangmu stood opposite Jinyang, as if she had something to say to herself.

  "Don't think about helping him explain anything, he's already admitted it. But that doesn't matter, because in my heart he is still my brother."

  Jin Yang smiled after hearing Yang Mu's words and then asked:

  "Why did you just help him make things difficult for Director Wang?"

  "This might be his true character, unrestrained and free. Now that I know he has such ambition, why not help him?"

  "This will lead him step by step towards destruction."

  "I have no choice, for my brother's sake. You're the same, aren't you?"

  This is ultimately a topic that can't be discussed or agreed upon, and Yangmu is clearer than anyone about Lezi's character. Jinyang has also been with him for so long and should be very clear, so they can only silently watch Lezi stumble along the road ahead.

  The next day, Yang Mu came to the construction site and walked around in circles, hoping to find some of the problems. In such a problematic construction site, Yang Mu just wanted to solve some of the most pressing issues.

  It was only when chatting with He Dali at noon that Yang Mu discovered the most urgent hope of these worker brothers, which is to receive their wages on time.

  Sometimes they even give up part of their hard-earned money just to get some, listening to He Dali's statement, Yang Mu suddenly felt that he had a direction for his work.

  The issue of wage arrears for migrant workers is currently at the forefront of public opinion, so why not take this opportunity to do a good job and add some gold to yourself.

  The idea was settled, and Yang Mu directly returned home. This job is very free now, of course, this is self-defined, and I don't know how Manager Wei from the project department views this kind of work style that comes and goes as one pleases.

  Back home, he took out Dong Yurou's notebook and started drafting a plan. After such a long time together, Yang Mu and Dong Yurou had already developed some kind of unspoken understanding.

  The two of them would chat and laugh together when they had nothing to do, watch TV together, cook together, eat together, and Yang Mu found that she didn't have the "princess disease" he had imagined.

  The only bad thing is that she doesn't allow herself to smoke in the living room, and when smoking in the bedroom, she must close the door. Sitting in her tidy living room writing something, with a cup of boiled water beside her, and an ashtray, this kind of comfortable life is what Yangmu has never dared to ask for, now it's just taking advantage of her absence to be reckless.

  Director Wang handled things quickly and just one day later he called Old Master to say that the stick could be picked up today.

  With a happy face, driving with Lao Ye Zi and Wang Jingyi to the detention center waiting for Bang Bang to come out, just got off the car and saw Jin Yang walking down from her car.

  "Lezi has something on today and can't make it, so he asked me to come in his place to welcome Banger back."

  "You have things to attend to, don't let that unimportant thing delay your important matters."

  Although it was a comforting word from Jin Yang, it also contained Old Master's anger towards Bang Bang for not living up to his expectations.

  He was initially strongly opposed to opening this bar with Bàng Bàng, but due to Bàng Bàng's persistence, he eventually gave in and handed over a large sum of money.

  The gate of the detention house slowly opened, and Bao Bao held a red coat in his hand, looking back at the sunlight that had not yet disappeared on the roof of the detention house, then stood there watching the few people waiting for him.

  All the way, there were many good words, but he never said half a word to Lao Yezi. However, Yang Mu, who was standing beside him, had seen his expression change countless times as he looked at Lao Yezi.

  Volunteering to say that I will make a table of dishes for them tonight, which is considered as a reception for my brother, and then call Jin Yang and Wang Jieyi to go to the supermarket with me to buy some vegetables.

  The two women naturally understood Yang Mu's meaning and said they were worried that Yang Mu, a big man, didn't know how to buy vegetables, so they went to help out and left space for Bao Bao and his father.
