The Happy Farmer Wanderer-Chapter 207: The Person Buying Medicine_1

With Xu Keqing apologizing in such a way, how could Li Qing possibly not agree?

He didn’t even stretch before he immediately agreed.

Then he asked, "Madam Lu has already left?"

"Her husband called her back to get a scolding," Xu Keqing joked with a tease.

"From what I heard today, she’s basically agreed to my earlier plan, but just as we were getting to the crucial part, discussing the timing, her husband suddenly called to hurry her along."

"I didn’t hear anything; it was Madam Lu who said her husband is off work today and had been eager to do it since this morning, but Madam Lu found her husband’s touch too gentle and unsatisfactory, so she refused him. She just said that she took some medicine."

Li Qing couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful.

But having just had a small argument with Xu Keqing over this, he didn’t dare to show anything else, so he just nodded.

"Well, let me know if there’s any news. Secretary Zhou calls me over from time to time, and I’m afraid that I won’t be able to meet with Madam Lu privately," Li Qing glanced at Xu Keqing and said on purpose.

"Aiyah, why bring this up again? I’ve apologized," Xu Keqing whined while shaking Li Qing’s arm with a coquettish tone, "If it weren’t for the fact that I have a patient coming soon, I could show you my attitude right now."

Li Qing smiled knowingly, "I was just mentioning it."

Pulling his arm out from Xu Keqing’s full and heavy embrace, Li Qing gave it a few squeezes and said, "Then I’ll leave first, and come back later."

"Hmm, I have patients coming in any time now, and it’s not convenient to talk. Wait for me to get off work. Then, I’ll apologize properly and grind down that thing for you," Xu Keqing crinkled her nose and said with a hint of proud coquetry.

Li Qing gave another squeeze on Xu Keqing’s full and heavy content, nodded, and left the clinic.

After leaving the hospital, Li Qing suddenly remembered that he had forgotten the main issue.

He especially came today to get a follow-up opinion from Xu Keqing.

But he had completely forgotten about it after a brief argument.

Just as he was about to turn back and re-enter, he received a phone call from Lü Zong.

"Qingzi, come over here. We’ve found the bastard who drugged us!"

Li Qing didn’t dare delay and immediately rode his bike to Lü Family Restaurant in a hurry.

In the office on the fourth floor of the restaurant.

Gong Brother and others had already returned and were beating up a young man with yellow hair.

As Li Qing pushed open the door and entered, he caught this scene.

The cries of agony were intermittent, and Lü Zong sat behind the tea table as calm as a tiger.

Upon seeing Li Qing enter, he motioned at the beaten man with his mouth, "Qingzi, this is the bastard!"

Li Qing took a closer look at the bruised and swollen young man with yellow hair, "Why does he look somewhat familiar?"

"He’s one of the kids who splashed sulfuric acid on our car last time, named Ding Dayou," explained Gong Brother.

"Wasn’t it said this kid would get at least five years? How has he come out so quickly?" Li Qing asked in surprise.

"It was Ding Sanyou who got sentenced. This kid was just a runner. After being detained for a few days and educated, they let him out," Gong Brother explained, "It really is hard to change one’s nature. Who would have thought that not many days after getting out, he would dare to stir up trouble like this."

Li Qing was somewhat shocked.

He walked over to Ding Dayou, squatted down, grabbed a handful of his yellow hair, and asked, "Ding Dayou, Ding Sanyou, you guys are brothers, right?"

Ding Dayou had long been scared out of his wits.

Upon hearing Li Qing’s question, his head bobbed like a pecking chick. "Sanyou is my younger brother."

"Your brother is already locked up, so what are you thinking, continuing to do this?" Li Qing asked.

He really couldn’t figure it out.

This was a path leading straight to a dead end!

"I... it’s just that I have nothing else to do, and Old Kong the Third said as long as I work well, he would find a way to get my brother out," Ding Dayou said with a mournful expression.

Li Qing had come to see that there was probably something wrong with this man’s head.

"What do you think that place is? Unless Old Kong the Third has some miraculous power, don’t even think about it. Do you think he does?" Li Qing said coldly, "I’m asking you, did you handle the drugs all by yourself?"

"Brother, I... I’m just a runner. I had no idea what I was transporting. I just moved stuff from various pesticide shops to Old Kong the Third’s place," Ding Dayou said with obvious fear. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"A runner?" Li Qing repeated flatly.

Gongge’s fist clenched instantly. "You little rascal, you’re still not coming clean?"

"Bro... brother, I’m telling the truth, there isn’t a single lie," Ding Dayou quickly said.

Li Qing raised his hand to stop Gongge, and asked, "Which pesticide shops did you go to, and you still remember, right?"

"Of course, I remember. I was worried that Old Kong the Third, the old skinflint wouldn’t reimburse me, so I had the owners write receipts and hid them away," Ding Dayou immediately said, "The receipts are in my house, I can take you there to get them now."

Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh. With receipts, this case was even more solid.

"You turn out to be quite clever. As long as you’re willing to stand up and testify against Old Kong the Third, we will let you off!"

The expression on Ding Dayou’s face immediately soured. Seeing Li Qing’s face turn cold, he quickly continued, "Bro, it’s not that I refuse, it’s just... Old Kong the Third, that old guy has some nasty tricks up his sleeve; I’m afraid of his revenge."

"If... if you could let me hang with you guys, I wouldn’t hesitate at all."

Li Qing turned to look at Lü Zong.

Lü Zong, like an immovable Buddha, barely lowered his eyelids, simply waving his hand.

In that moment, Lü Zong exuded a tremendous pressure that Li Qing could subtly feel.

This was probably his true nature.

Seeing that Lü Zong had left the decision to him, Li Qing weighed the options for a moment and said, "I can agree to that, but I want to correct you on something: working with us is not messing around. We’re decent people doing honest business. There’s no crooked business for you to get involved with."

"Then what should I do... I... I understand now, I’ll make a clean break from the past and start anew," Ding Dayou quickly said, "As long as you guys protect me, I can testify about a lot of the crappy things Old Kong the Third has done before. I’ve got plenty of receipts left at my place."

Li Qing was amused.

This guy really had some smarts about him.

Gongge clenched his fist hard and said to Lü Zong, "Lü Zong, let’s go find that son of a bitch Old Kong the Third!"

"Didn’t you hear what Qingzi just said? We are decent people doing honest business, we send them off to the police station."

"Besides, Qingzi has already taken care of everything. The hell are you still whining and clamoring to go after Old Kong the Third for?"

Lü Zong’s eyelids lifted slightly as he spoke in a deep voice, "Learn more from Qingzi!"
