Chapter 497 Lu Jiangting is not threatened
Chapter 497 Lu Jiangting is not threatened
These are all his weaknesses.
Lu Jiangting was furious, but he had to go back and deal with this matter.
He couldn't let that bastard Yang Guangzong spout nonsense.
Whether it's for Chenchen or for her father.
Dad is getting old and his health isn't good. If he found out, he might get so angry he wouldn't be able to catch his breath.
Fang Qing hung up the phone and saw a crowd gathered in front of a tricycle not far away.
The man sitting on the tricycle was shouting through a megaphone, "Some company is hiring, 200 yuan a month, room and board included."
She wasn't really interested in any of that, but when she heard about the 200 yuan a month, no one could resist the temptation.
She wrapped her clothes tighter around herself and approached the tricycle.
Someone nearby asked, "What kind of job pays 200 yuan a month with room and board included?"
"You work alongside the driver, and when the goods arrive at the destination, you help the driver unload them. The base salary is 200 yuan, and you get commission for the extra work you do. Some good workers can earn 400 or 500 yuan a month."
These words stirred the hearts of those around them.
Doing that would be four or five hundred? What does that even mean? My God.
An old man said sourly, "Oh, that requires someone young and strong."
"Yes." The other person pointed to the words written on the sign and said, "It's clearly written here that we only want young and strong men, between eighteen and forty-eight years old. We don't want older men."
Eighteen to forty-eight, that's a pretty wide age range.
"Aren't you tired?"
“What’s so tiring? Are you more tired than the driver? While the driver is on the road, you can just lie down and sleep. When we arrive, you can get up and help the driver unload the goods.”
"That's a porter, I suppose."
"Pretty much, but these kinds of truck-mounted porters have it much easier than construction site porters. If you work as a porter on a construction site, you have to keep working. Truck-mounted porters only move things when they arrive at their destination."
"Sounds good."
"Of course! You'll eat and live with the driver, and you'll have meat with every meal. Go out and ask around, where else can you find such a good job?"
"This is a good job; I bet a lot of people would be vying for it."
"Of course, but there's a downside. You'll have to travel with them, sometimes for long distances, and they might not come back for ten days or half a month. Plus, you have to be able to handle motion sickness. Do you think you can manage?"
“My husband probably wouldn’t agree to me going out for ten days or half a month.”
"Oh, then there's no way around it. This job is more suitable for single people who don't have family burdens."
Are there any educational requirements?
"No requirements, as long as you have the strength."
"Then I'll go back and discuss it with my family. Will you still be here tomorrow?"
"They're not here anymore. We'll be leaving in a bit. Call us when you've made up your mind."
The person in the tricycle casually tore off a piece of paper and wrote down a number for him.
Several people nearby were interested and asked for his phone number.
Seeing this, Fang Qing also went and printed one.
Thinking to himself, "Isn't Yang Guangzong looking for a job? Isn't this a perfect opportunity?"
Anything is fine as long as I can get him away from me.
……
After hanging up the phone, Lu Jiangting returned to his workstation with a dark expression.
Yi Yunshuo asked Fu Huaiyi next door in a low voice, "What's wrong with Lu Jiangting?"
"how?"
"I overheard him telling the person on the other end of the phone to die. Wasn't that Fang Qing calling him? What happened between him and Fang Qing that he would tell her to die? Isn't he really good to Fang Qing?"
Fu Huaiyi: "..."
"Cough cough, maybe..."
Before he could finish speaking, Old Wang came in with a stainless steel basin and started banging on it.
"You're at work now, no more whispering."
Fu Huaiyi could only swallow his words and tell Yi Yunshuo with his eyes that they would talk after get off work.
Yi Yunshuo was so frustrated.
They were feeding him such a big bite of melon, but he wouldn't eat it, and he felt so uncomfortable all afternoon.
After finally getting off work, Yi Yunshuo caught up with Fu Huaiyi and asked him about the gossip he hadn't finished telling.
Fu Huaiyi looked around and, seeing no one, whispered to Yi Yunshuo, "Fang Qing was taken to the hospital and beaten by Lu Jiangting."
"Huh? Why? It's been over three months already. Why did you suddenly get a shot?"
"I heard it wasn't three months, but more than five months."
Yi Yunshuo: "More than five months? She's already so big, wouldn't it be a waste to abort her?"
"What's the pity? You figure out where Fang Qing was at that time."
Yi Yunshuo did the math, then his eyes widened suddenly. "Fang Qing is still at her hometown for the New Year."
Fu Huaiyi gave a knowing smile.
Yi Yunshuo was so shocked he couldn't speak. "Goodness, I never would have guessed. Fang Qing has had it tough, really tough. Keeping such a big secret from Lu Jiangting and then pinning this bastard child on him, that must have been incredibly difficult."
"Of course! With such a big secret weighing on my mind, I'm filled with anxiety every day."
"Lu Jiangting called her to have an abortion, which can be considered as helping her remove a huge weight from her heart."
"Yes, you're right to think that way."
"Tsk tsk, Lu Jiangting is really good to Fang Qing."
Lu Jiangting noticed that Yi Yunshuo's gaze was strange, but he didn't dare to ask any questions.
After getting off work in the evening, he hurriedly rode away on his bicycle.
However, instead of going straight home, he went to find Yang Guangzong first.
Yang Guangzong was prepared today. If it came to a fight, and the two faced off head-on, he might not necessarily suffer much of a loss.
However, Lu Jiangting wasn't here to fight him today. He went straight to the point and asked, "Speak, what do you want from me?"
"It's nothing serious," Yang Guangzong said, rubbing his hands together. "I'm just a little short on cash lately, so I'm asking to borrow some money from you."
Lu Jiangting sneered, "Heh, trying to extort me?"
"How can this be called extortion? You don't want your wife to be pregnant with an illegitimate child, such a shameful secret, to be known by everyone, do you?"
Lu Jiangting said calmly, "Threatening me?"
"How can you call this a threat? If you want to silence me, how can you do it without paying me off? Don't you think so?"
Lu Jiangting sneered, "You want hush money from me? Ha, fine, let's go to the police station together, you can talk to them there."
"Hey, why can't you talk to me? You're just afraid I'll expose Fang Qing's little secret."
"Whatever. If this gets out, there are only two outcomes. Either I'll be that cuckold and admit it's my child. Of course, if you're the one who leaked it, I won't let you off easy. I'll pin this on you and say you did it."
Yang Guangzong's expression changed. "I'm not blind, why would I be interested in a piece of trash like Fang Qing?"
Even though the insults were directed at Fang Qing, Lu Jiangting felt like he was being insulted as well.
"In this area of Nancheng, whether you admit it or not, I can find a way to pin this label on you, believe me or not?"
Yang Guangzong recalled the last time he was beaten, but the other party still received an award for bravery.
Thinking to myself, it's really hard to say what will happen when you're on someone else's mountain.
Lu Jiangting threatened him coldly, "Hooliganism is punishable by death."
