Chapter 45 Bullets Have No Eyes

  "What?! The old woman looked at Hua Lieyang with an unbelievable expression and sighed deeply, saying: "Child! You've suffered so much! To be honest, this family would have fallen apart long ago if it weren't for you!" Hearing the old woman's words, Hua Lieyang shook his head and said: "Grandma! As long as you're doing well, that's all that matters!"

  Before Hu Lieyang could finish speaking, Fu Bo walked into the study and said: "Young Master Sun! Chun Guang has brought people back!" As soon as Fu Bo finished speaking, before Hu Lieyang could open his mouth, an old woman's voice was heard saying: "A Fu, go tell that good-for-nothing! I've already divided up his share of the family property! He no longer has the right to live with us!"

  Fu Bo heard the old woman's words and looked at Hua Lieyang. Hua Lieyang smiled wryly and said to Fu Bo, "Fu Bo, Grandma is in charge of this family! You just do as Grandma says!"

  "Yes!" said Fu Bo, turning and leaving. After a while, Hua Lieyang heard the noise coming from downstairs. Upon hearing this sound, Hua Lieyang hastily ran down the stairs, saying: "What's going on?! Who's causing trouble here?!" Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Yang Chun Guang immediately shut his mouth tight.

  At this time, a middle-aged woman said: "Ji Ting, you see your deceased grandfather's share, don't drive Chun Guang away!" Before Hu Lieyang could speak, the old woman who followed Hu Lieyang down the stairs said: "This is my decision! When you came out of Northeast China, weren't you quarreling and wanting to divide the family property?! I've already divided it for you!"

  The middle-aged woman was stunned when she heard the words and stared foolishly at Hua Lieyang, hoping that he could help her out. Just then, Yang Fengyin walked in and said: "Ji Ting, why do you want to save this beast?! Hearing Yang Fengyin's words, Hua Lieyang asked in confusion: "Auntie, what's going on?! I'm all confused?!"

  When Hua Lieyang heard the words, Yang Fengyun told the whole story one by one. The more Hua Lieyang listened, the more angry he became. After a while, when Yang Fengyun finished speaking, Hua Lieyang angrily pulled out his Browning pistol and said: "You beast, I'll kill you!"

  When she saw Hua Lieyang's action, the middle-aged woman was stunned. Fortunately, Yang Chunlei reacted quickly and hugged Hua Lieyang, saying: "Jiting, calm down!" As he spoke, Yang Chunlei snatched the Browning from Hua Lieyang's hand. However, Yang Chunlei forgot that Hua Lieyang still had another gun in his hand.

  Suddenly, a crisp gunshot rang out. Then Yang Chun Guang fell to the ground. Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned. At that moment, Hua Lieyang spoke up: "This bullet I'll spare you for your grandfather's sake! From now on, don't set foot in here again!"

  Hua Lieyang's words had just finished, when he heard Ouyang Zixue walk in and say: "So domineering?! How dare you lay hands on your own family members?!" Before Ouyang Zixue could finish speaking, Hua Lieyang coldly said: "You've come at the right time! Just now, your elder brother and his friend fired five shots at me! Are you going to pay them back for these five bullets, or are they going to come themselves?"

  When Hu Lieyang finished speaking, Ouyang Zixue was stunned. Before Ouyang Zixue could speak, Hu Lieyang calmly told Yang Chunxiao: "Uncle Xiao, please get rid of the people who have nothing to do with our family! If they resist, shoot them on the spot!" After finishing speaking, Hu Lieyang turned and left.

  Just as he walked to one side, someone said, "What a big tone! I'll return you a bullet!" Before the words were spoken, Hua Lieyang didn't even look back and swung his hand with a gunshot. After firing the shot, Hua Lieyang directly went upstairs. When Hua Lieyang went upstairs, people who reacted looked at the person who walked in together, and then saw that the person had been shot in the middle of their brow. Seeing this scene, Ouyang Zixue suddenly cried out.

  After a while, when everything was over, the old woman walked into Hua Lieyang's study and said: "Jiting, why did you kill someone for no reason?!"

  "Grandma! I won't fire today, and this matter won't end so quickly!" Just as Hua Lieyang finished speaking, Fu Bo walked into Hua Lieyang's study and said: "Young Master Sun, you called me here for what instructions?!"

  Hua Lieyang smiled and looked at Fu Bo, saying: "Fu Bo, arrange it for tomorrow! I want to meet the big brothers of Chongqing Bang!" Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Fu Bo smiled and said: "Young Master Sun, no problem! I'll go arrange it right away!" After finishing speaking, Fu Bo turned around and left.

  The next morning, Hua Lieyang tidied up and walked down the stairs, smiling at Yang Fengyun and saying: "Little aunt, do you have any plans?" Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Yang Fengyun smiled and said: "As for me, your little aunt, I haven't thought it through yet! I reckon you'll still need to support me for a while, is that okay?!"

  Hua Lieyang smiled and said, "Of course not! If you want to study, I'll send you to my uncle Yang Chunyuan's place! It just so happens that you can also help me take care of An Qi! After all, those two old men may not be able to take good care of a little girl!"

  At this moment, Fu Bo walked to the front of Hua Lieyang and said: "Young Master Sun, everything is arranged!" Hua Lieyang nodded after hearing Fu Bo's words and said: "Good! I'll be right there, Fu Bo!" After finishing speaking, Hua Lieyang turned to Yang Fengyin and said: "Don't go out for the next few days! What if that scoundrel Yang Chun Guang doesn't change his ways and sells you again?!"

  Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Yang Fengyun thought for a moment and said: "Jiting, give me a gun! This way you can also be at ease!"

  "Will you fire?!" Hu Lieyang asked curiously.

  "Of course! Do you want me to try it out for you?" Yang Fengyin said with a smile. After hearing Yang Fengyin's words, Hua Lieyang thought for a moment and then said: "Follow me!" After finishing speaking, Hua Lieyang flipped over and went upstairs. After going upstairs, Hua Lieyang walked into his study, opened the safe, took out a Browning pistol, carefully wiped it clean, and handed it to Yang Fengyin, saying: "This gun was left by my mother! You must not lose it!"

  "I know!" Yang Fengyun took the gun from Hua Lieyang's hand in a daze and turned to leave. Watching Yang Fengyun's back as she walked away, Hua Lieyang let out a soft sigh and walked down the stairs.

  About half an hour later, Fu Bo brought Hua Lieyang to the gate of a villa near Chao Tianmen Wharf. After knocking on the door, a middle-aged man opened a small door and said sideways: "Who are you looking for?"

  Fu Bo smiled and said, "We have an appointment with Cao Tianqiao, Old Cao!" Upon hearing Fu Bo's words, the middle-aged man said, "You wait a minute, I'll go inform him!" After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man closed the door.

  After a while, the gate opened and a man in his fifties walked out with a majestic gait, saying: "I'm Cao Tianqiao, sorry for not coming to greet you from afar. Please forgive me!" Upon hearing Cao Tianqiao's words, Hua Lieyang humbly replied: "The great name of Uncle Cao has been echoing in my ears since I was in the Northeast! Today, meeting you is truly a blessing from three lifetimes!" As he spoke, Hua Lieyang clapped his hands, and at this moment, Yang Chunxiao opened the trunk.

  Seeing this scene, Cao Tianqiao looked at Hua Lieyang with a puzzled expression. Hua Lieyang saw the gaze cast by Cao Tianqiao and smiled, saying: "Uncle! I don't have anything to give you, so I brought some special products from Northeast China, hoping you'll accept them!" Upon hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Cao Tianqiao gave a signal with his eyes to the people beside him.

  Seeing Cao Tianqiao's expression, one of his subordinates walked to the trunk and was stunned after taking a look. After a while, he came back to his senses and returned to Cao Tianqiao's side, saying in a low voice: "Brother, there are only gold bars, guns, and bullets in the trunk!"

  Cao Tianqiao's eyes lit up as he listened to the report from his subordinate, and he smiled, saying: "Xianzhong! You've come, why be so polite?! Come on, follow me in and sit down!" After that, Cao Tianqiao pulled Huale Yang towards the house.

  After entering the living room, Cao Tianqiao smiled and said: "Xianzhong, you were so mighty yesterday?!" Hua Liyang understood the meaning behind Cao Tianqiao's words and smiled, saying: "Young nephew has just arrived in Guizhou, if there's anything wrong, I hope uncle will forgive me!" As he spoke, Hua Liyang took out a check from his pocket and said: "The one in the car is a gift for uncle! This is young nephew's hard-earned money asking uncle for help! I hope uncle will accept it!"

  Cao Tianqiao smiled and took the check from Hua Lieyang, looked at it for a moment, and was stunned. He quickly came back to his senses and said: "Xianzhong, you're too polite! If there's anything in the future, just come find me! In this Chongqing dock, I still have some influence!" Hearing Cao Tianqiao's words, Hua Lieyang smiled and said: "Then thank you, Uncle!"

  After a while, Hua Lieyang and Cao Tianqiao were chatting enthusiastically when a woman walked in. Seeing Hua Lieyang, she was taken aback and said, "Dad, it was him who saved me yesterday!" Cao Tianqiao was also taken aback upon hearing his daughter's words. After a moment, he regained his composure and walked up to Hua Lieyang, saying, "Ji Ting, you saved my daughter! Please accept my bow!"

  Hua Lieyang understood Cao Tianqiao's words and stopped him, saying: "Uncle, don't be polite! Otherwise, I won't dare to visit you in the future!" Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Cao Tianqiao was not a pretentious person either, so he directly opened his mouth and said: "Ji Ting, if you have something to say, just say it directly!"

  "So the young nephew is not hiding anymore!" Hu Lieyang said with a sip of tea, "Uncle, I'll be going to Shanghai in a few days! Then I will go take the entrance exam for the Central Military Academy! It's possible that I won't be able to return home for two or three years! So please take care of the family's safety, Uncle!" Hu Lieyang said as he took out a check and continued, "Uncle, our friendship is one thing, but rules are rules, so please accept this!" He then placed the check on Cao Tianqiao's desk.

  Hearing Hua Lieyang's words, Cao Tianqiao thought for a moment and picked up the check on the table, looked at it and said: "Good! You're refreshing! I'm also refreshing! In the future, I'll help take care of your family!" As he spoke, Cao Tianqiao glanced at his watch and said: "Ji Ting, since you've come, why don't you stay here for a simple meal before leaving?"

  Hua Lieyang heard Cao Tianqiao's words and smiled, saying: "Then I'll obey humbly!" As he spoke, Hua Lieyang followed Cao Tianqiao to the dining hall next door.

  After taking his seat, Cao Tianqiao said straightforwardly: "Jiting, your name is like thunder in my ears! You and your men have brought honor and prestige to the Chinese people! Uncle, I represent all the people under heaven to toast you a cup!" Upon hearing Cao Tianqiao's words, Hua Lieyang said seriously: "Uncle, you are embarrassing me too much!"

  "Huh?!" Cao Tianqiao put down his wine cup and asked in puzzlement: "Ji Ting, what are you talking about?"
