Courtyard House: Drunk and barging into the Xu family's house, I woke up numb.

"Xu Fugui, don't go to the police station yet. Come back to the security office with me first!"

Upon hearing Cheng Yuan's words and seeing the gleaming handcuffs, Xu Fugui glared fiercely at Xu Damao.

"Xu Damao, you little bastard, someone report me."

"I must have been blind to have given birth to such a rebellious son as you!"

After saying that, Xu Fugui wanted to rush up and beat Xu Damao up, but Zhang Guangrong stopped him as soon as he made a move.

In the security department's interrogation room of the steel rolling mill, Xu Fugui's mouth hadn't stopped talking since he entered.

They didn't stop after they finished cursing him directly; they turned around and continued cursing him, using all sorts of different methods.

If swearing could cause sneezing, Xu Damao would probably have been taken to the hospital for isolation by now.

Who knows when the Xu family will have to hold a feast, it will probably be quite a lively one.

After leaving Cao Xu's office, Cheng Yuan went directly to the door of the interrogation room.

Hearing the unabated insults coming from inside, he looked at Zhang Guangrong beside him and asked.

"They've been yelling for at least an hour, haven't they?"

Zhang Guangrong nodded.

"Yes, he was grumbling and cursing on the way back."

"But perhaps because he was afraid of losing face, he didn't speak very loudly."

"But once we got back to our interrogation room, things really got interesting. It was like they turned on a loudspeaker and doubled the numbers."

"It startled the section chief who came back from the restroom. I was going to teach him a lesson, but he wouldn't let me."

"They said they'd let him curse all he wanted, but he's cursing Xu Damao, so it has nothing to do with us."

Cheng Yuan asked again.

18. "What about Xu Damao?"

Zhang Guangrong gestured towards the interrogation room with his lip.

“He’s inside. The section chief said to let him listen to his father scolding him.”

"If you want our security personnel to run errands for him, there will be a price to pay."

"There's no such thing as a free lunch. He reported his own father, so he deserves a scolding."

"They said that once his dad has had his fill of scolding, he'll cooperate, and then he'll be able to get the money."

Cheng Yuan smiled upon hearing this.

"He's deliberately messing with Xu Damao."

"Letting Xu Damao stay inside, no wonder Xu Fugui kept cursing."

"The fact that he didn't faint and have to go to the hospital is all thanks to Xu Fugui's strong mentality and good physical condition."

Zhang Guangrong quickly explained.

"Team leader, the section chief said this isn't considered harassment; it's just a special kind of investigation method called 'waiting for the rabbit to run into the tree stump.'"

"It means letting Xu Damao stay in the house and guard his father, waiting for the money to come to him on its own."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuan inwardly cursed the fallacy, thinking it was utterly despicable.

"Alright, it's about time. Let's go in and take a look."

After Zhang Guangrong took out the key and opened the door to the interrogation room, Cheng Yuan went inside.

Upon entering, one sees Xu Fugui handcuffed to a chair, and Xu Damao being scolded like a grandson.

The moment Cheng Yuan stepped into the interrogation room, Xu Fugui, who had been cursing so vehemently, immediately shut his mouth and dared not utter another sound.

"Team Leader Cheng, you've finally arrived!"

When Xu Damao saw Cheng Yuan and the other man walk in, it was as if he had seen a savior. He stepped forward and grabbed Cheng Yuan's hand.

"Team Leader Cheng, I beg you, please let me go home, okay?"

"He yelled at me for over an hour, and my head was about to explode."

“I’ll go crazy if you lock me up with him.”

"Really, Team Leader Cheng, I'm not lying to you. I'm really going to go crazy if this continues."

Cheng Yuan withdrew his hand, walked to the interrogation table, sat down, and gave instructions to Zhang Guangrong, who was sitting next to him.

"Glorious, bring Comrade Xu Fugui a glass of water so he can calm down and compose himself."

"His mouth hasn't rested for an hour, it must be tired. Let's moisten his throat."

"So that my voice doesn't get hoarse and I can't work tomorrow, and then the people in the furnace room will complain about us again."

Zhang Guangrong went to pour water as instructed, and Cheng Yuan looked at Xu Damao and said.

"Are you going home?"

"Fine, if you don't want the money, then leave now."

Xu Damao shut his mouth. He had gone to all this trouble just to get money, so why would he give up so easily?

When Xu Fugui, who was sitting opposite Cheng Yuan, heard about tomorrow's shift, his face immediately lit up with surprise.

"Team Leader Cheng, does that mean I can go back now?"

Cheng Yuan pointed to the waterway that Zhang Guangrong had brought over.

"Drink some water first."

Seeing Xu Fugui pick up his water glass and drink, Cheng Yuan leaned back in his chair and continued.

“许富贵，事情很明了了，我也不飛.!鹿:'!小:,说'群;?7,6."?3?4':8:;'0':１.:,想审你了。”

"You tell me yourself, are you going to take the money or not?"

Xu Fugui had been cursing for an hour, and his throat was already hoarse.

However, he was so angry with Xu Damao that his head was throbbing, so he held on and cursed him as much as he could.

As for the 1,400 yuan, Cheng Yuan knew he couldn't keep it the moment he walked into the small house and had someone put a silver bracelet on his wrist.

He glanced at Xu Damao beside him and said resentfully.

"Team Leader Cheng, I'll pay this money. I'll go to the bank to withdraw it as soon as it opens tomorrow."

"However, I have a condition."

Cheng Yuan was very satisfied with Xu Fugui's tact, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"tell me the story."

Xu Fugui pointed at Xu Damao and said fiercely.

“I will not give this money to Xu Damao; I will hand it over directly to the factory.”

Xu Damao retorted upon hearing this.

"That's my money, of course you have to hand it over to me."

Cheng Yuan gave Xu Damao a meaningful look and smiled.

“No problem. Xu Damao also said that this is embezzled money, so it’s perfectly fine to hand it over to the factory directly.”

When Xu Damao tried to speak, Xu Fugui immediately interrupted him.

"Alright, Xu Damao, you're my son, don't think I don't know what you're up to."

"Are you planning to run away with the money after I give it to you?"

"Or, hide the money somewhere else, say you lost it, and then go to the factory office to refuse to pay the debt and demand a job?"

"Let me tell you, you're dreaming. I've cut off both of your paths. You're not going anywhere."

Xu Damao was so angry that he couldn't speak. Just as Xu Fugui had thought, he really intended to use the second method.

This method, which came out by the person at the card table, gave Xu Damao a spark of inspiration.

So he planned to wait until he got the money, then find a legitimate reason not to pay it back, and even go back to the factory to stay and work for free.

But all of this was ruined by his father, who had been scolding him for an hour. It's truly a case of father and son sabotaging each other.

Cheng Yuan picked up a piece of paper and a pen and quickly wrote an investigation record. After finishing, he handed it to Xu Fugui.

"Okay, then sign the review record now, leave a written agreement, and you can go home after that."

"Go to the finance department tomorrow, pay the money, and bring the receipt from the finance office to me to close the case."

Xu Fugui signed his name readily, and afterwards Cheng Yuan had Zhang Guangrong remove his handcuffs.

Xu Fugui stared at the broom behind the door and asked.

"Team Leader Cheng, can I borrow something from you?"
