Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 132: Being on guard against others is essential

Jiang Cheng was stunned when he heard the beeping sound from his cell phone.

"what happened?"

The sound of black tea rang in my ears.

At this moment, the two of them had already entered the city, and even entered the residential area, and came downstairs to Bai Wei's house.

As for Nightingale, she got off the bus and left after entering the city, and had no interest in what happened next.

"Nothing." Jiang Cheng looked at Hong Cha with a concerned look on his face and scratched his head, "It's just that the call was hung up suddenly. I was a little surprised."

"It's normal."

Hongcha smiled and said, "Your Senior Sister Bai is kind-hearted, but her master is not. I have dealt with him several times. How should I put it? It is difficult to simply define whether he is a good person or a bad person. Anyway, he is very hostile to people like us."

"I see."

Jiang Cheng nodded.

Recalling what Bai Wei said before she hung up the phone, the Liming Club might not be as good as it seemed, which she must have learned from her master.

It is difficult to judge whether it is true or false.

As the saying goes, you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. It's always a good idea to be more careful in everything.

"Okay, it's getting late. We should go up and pick the person up. If we are slow, we might get into trouble," Hongcha reminded.

"Ah."

Jiang Cheng quickly went upstairs, arrived at the door of Bai Wei's house, and knocked on it.

"Boom, boom, boom."

The dull knocking sound broke the silence in the corridor.

Someone upstairs heard the noise and looked down curiously through the stairs.

Jiang Cheng knocked on the door, feeling expectant but also a little nervous.

Worried that something might have happened to his family, he was not at home.

Fortunately, this worry was unnecessary. Three seconds later, a woman's vigilant voice sounded in the house, "Who is it? Who is knocking on the door?"

"Mrs. Chen, it's me, Xiaocheng."

Hearing this familiar voice, Jiang Cheng hurriedly replied.

"Small town!"

A cry of surprise came from inside the house, "Xiaocheng? Is it really you? Xiaocheng?"

"It's me, Mrs. Chen."

Soon, footsteps were heard in the house, approaching the door. However, the person inside did not open the door immediately. Instead, he looked out through the peephole. After seeing that the person standing at the door was really Jiang Cheng, he quickly opened the door.

"grandmother."

Jiang Cheng hugged the old man tightly.

"Xiaocheng, you're finally here. Grandma was worried to death."

The old man's eyes were filled with tears of excitement.

Mrs. Chen was also wiping her tears.

These days, they basically don't go out except for buying groceries and taking out the trash. Because they have TV, they don't feel bored, and they can take a shower when they are tired. Their life is many times better than in the slums.

But precisely because of this, they are more worried about Jiang Cheng's safety.

During this time, he went to a roadside phone shop, spent a few dollars, and called Bai Wei.

One was to express gratitude, and the other was to inquire about Jiang Cheng's situation.

Bai Wei told the three that Jiang Cheng was fine and had come to the boxing gym yesterday. She asked them to stay there and would take them back when the situation stabilized.

The three of them were naturally relieved, but they couldn't completely let go if they didn't see Jiang Cheng for a day.

But now, Jiang Cheng suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Brother Jiang Cheng," Lin Yue looked at the red tea behind her and asked in confusion, "Didn't Sister Bai come with us?"

After she said this, the old man and Mrs. Chen also realized it.

It really is.

Why is the person who came with Jiang Cheng a man?
"Senior Sister Bai has something else to do and can't come for the time being. Besides, we can't keep bothering her. You guys pack your luggage and we'll leave soon."

The three of them were not surprised by this result.

After all, this is not a place where people like them can stay for a long time. The slums are their destination.

Even though I was extremely reluctant.

In just a few minutes, the three of them had packed their luggage.

Actually, there was nothing to pack. I didn't bring much stuff with me, and I wasn't staying long, so I was ready to leave at any time. Each room was cleaned and tidy.

"Xiaocheng, what about the key?"

"Just put it in the house."

Jiang Cheng remembered that Bai Wei had a spare key on her.

"it is good."

After putting the keys away, the three of them checked again and made sure nothing was left out before closing the door.

After putting away the luggage, Jiang Cheng opened the car door and let the three of them sit in the back seat. Everything seemed the same as when they came, except that there was a different person in the driver's seat.

"Brother Hongcha, we're in trouble." Jiang Cheng said.

"Why are you saying this? Fasten your seat belts and let's go."

Hongcha smiled and drove away slowly.

In the back seat, Lin Yue silently withdrew her gaze from the residential building, her expression gloomy.

The few days she stayed here were the best memories of her life. How wonderful it would be if she could live in a place like this for the rest of her life.

"Small town."

Mrs. Chen's voice rang out, "What's the situation in the slums now? Have the people from the Wild Wolf Gang left? Are the people from the Iron Fist Gang coming?"

"Yes."

Jiang Cheng sorted out his thoughts.

Of course he couldn't be telling the truth.

"The Wild Wolf Gang left a few days ago, and then the Iron Fist Gang came and collected management fees from every household."

"How much does it cost per month?"

Mrs. Chen held on to her clothes tightly.

"1500."

"1500?"

"so tall!"

All three of them were startled.

"Yes, but grandma, Mrs. Chen, don't worry. We won't need to pay this in the future." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

"Don't need to pay it?"

"Why, Brother Jiang Cheng?" Lin Yue opened her eyes wide with curiosity.

"Because we don't have to go back."

As soon as the words fell, the car suddenly became quiet, and the three people in the back seat looked at each other.

No need to go back?
If they don't go back, where will they live?

"Grandma, Aunt Chen, let me keep you in suspense for now. You'll know when we get there."

Jiang Cheng smiled mysteriously.

Lin Yue felt warm in her heart.

Brother Jiang Cheng didn't mean to let himself and others continue to live in the outer city, right? Because if it was other places in the slums, management fees would also be required.

No way?
How could such a great thing happen to me?

But if that's the case...

Lin Yue's mood was extremely conflicted.

Mrs. Chen also vaguely guessed what Jiang Cheng meant.

However, no one knew Jiang Cheng's family conditions better than her. A house in the outer city area would cost at least three or four hundred thousand yuan. How could Jiang Cheng come up with so much money at once?

As for the old man, he was even more confused.

The car drove on the road, passing one block after another.

The moods of Mrs. Chen and others also fluctuated accordingly.

Finally, when passing an intersection, the car turned and drove out a short distance before driving into a residential area.

This community doesn't look much different from the community where Bai Wei's house is located.

Lin Yue's eyes lit up, but her heart was in her throat, fearing that it was all a false joy.

Finally, the car stopped in front of a five-story building.

As Jiang Cheng unbuckled his seat belt, he turned to the three of them with a smile and said, "Grandma, Aunt Chen, Xiaoyue, we're here. Get out of the car. I'll show you our new home."
