An extraordinary life journey through old Beijing courtyard houses

Jiang Baowu took a deep breath, suppressing all his irritability and anger.

Then, forcing a smile at Jiang Baobin, he said, "Third brother..."

Damn! I'm impressed, they can really hold their tongues!

In his previous life, Jiang Baobin didn't have much work experience, but he instinctively felt—

Someone like Jiang Baowu is bound to do well; the main reason is that leaders are fond of people like him.

As for whether this kind of person can still be popular now, he really doesn't know, he can only wait and see.

However, we must be very wary of him; he has a twisted personality and could be very dangerous if he gains power.

After finally getting rid of this guy, Jiang Baobin began to brainwash Jiang Daya:

"Little sister, why did you let him in?"

"Do you know about viruses? Once you get infected, there's no cure!"

Jiang Daya certainly didn't know about the virus, but she did have her own set of rules:

"What should I do then? My second brother is knocking on the door; I can't just pretend I didn't hear him, can I?"

Jiang Baobin really wanted to crack open her skull to see if it was full of mush.

"Isn't pretending you didn't hear him the best solution? Do you want to be sold out by him again?"

"I'm asking you, did he come to tell you that old bastard has given up on the idea?"

Jiang Daya was speechless; Jiang Baowu hadn't mentioned her at all.

It was as if she had been forced to leave home and never happened.

They asked all the questions about what Jiang Baobin had been doing recently and whether any suspicious people had appeared.

Seeing that his younger sister remained silent, Jiang Baobin pressed on, saying, "There are some people you absolutely cannot pay attention to."

"Because when good people meet bad people, it's always the good people who suffer."

"So it's best not to see him at all and leave him to Four-Eyes to deal with."

Jiang Daya said helplessly, "Alright then, if Second Brother comes again next time, I'll pretend I didn't hear you."

"Ah, that's more like it..."

Jiang Baobin wanted to give her a few more words of advice: don't be soft-hearted.

The phone suddenly rang.

Without a doubt, it must be Elizabeth, because no one else is calling here anymore.

Sure enough, this guy had another drinking party that night: "Come pick me up, someone's giving me a farewell dinner."

Jiang Baobin was a little confused: "What do you mean by 'farewell'? It's just a trip to Tianjin, I'll be back in a couple of days, right?"

"Oh, never mind that, just come over here."

"Oh, okay."

"That's right!" Elizabeth suddenly exclaimed.

"You'll look beautiful, let's dance together then."

Jiang Baobin scratched his head. Being a driver was bad enough, but he also had to entertain them. Would they even pay him overtime?

But before he could retort, a series of busy signals rang out, and Elizabeth had already hung up impatiently.

Jiang Baobin felt sorry for himself, considering he was a billionaire with a net worth of at least 100,000 yuan.

How embarrassing to be bossed around by a woman!

Even after having a great time, the foreigners, still a bit tipsy, will still leave a tip.

Jiang Baobin seemed to enjoy counting the money.

But... okay, let's not go through with the buts.

Since you need their help, stop complaining.

Jiang Baobin had experienced it firsthand; Elizabeth was much more assertive than Rose, and she was both playful and daring.

She's willing to hit a man if things don't go her way.

Thinking of Rose, Jiang Baobin's feelings became complicated again—he wondered how she was doing after returning to America.

Although the telegram said everything was fine, Jiang Baobin didn't quite believe it.

How good can things be for a woman with a husband in a vegetative state and two young children?

Sigh, thinking too much only adds to my worries. What can I do for her anyway...?

Then there's Jiang Lao Er, who was kicked out of the mansion.

He didn't leave at all. Would he dare to leave? He came with a mission.

He'll be in big trouble if he can't finish within the allotted time.

As for doing this, it's like betraying my own brother. Anyway, we don't have much of a relationship, so I might as well betray him.

Besides, the third brother has powerful backers, so it's hard to say who will bring down whom in the end.

If I could bring Zhao Zhibang down, that would be great; I've had enough.

Jiang Baowu, who was crouching in the corner spying, watched as the Lincoln sped away.

I couldn't help but feel envious—this third brother is really doing well now!

They always have a car with them, I wish I could be like that someday.

He quickly dismissed the idea: Who does he think he is? Just a lackey, I'm a police officer!

The guy pushed his bicycle back to the front gate.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong..." The doorbell kept ringing.

Jiang Baowu knew that if he wanted to deal with Jiang Baobin, he had to find a breakthrough by getting through his younger sister.

However, this time Jiang Daya did not come out again; only a large dog glared at her, its eyes full of intimidation.

Jiang Baowu was seething with anger – it must have been the third brother who said something to the little girl, otherwise he wouldn't have refused to open the door.

Jiang Baowu made a deep grudge in his heart, vowing to take revenge on everyone in the future...

Jiang Baobin, walking down the street, wasn't foolish enough to completely listen to Elizabeth's words.

That would mean he'd have to wait at least two hours.

For a woman to dress up for a party, it's quite a hassle beforehand.

Jiang Baobin went straight to see Liu Decai.

Just to let them know that he would be going to Tianjin for a few days.

If you come across a good item, be sure to keep it for yourself.

Liu Decai had seen plenty of people like this.

On a whim, I wish I could sleep in the same bed as an antique.

However, it comes and goes quickly; one day you might suddenly lose interest and not even bother to look at it anymore.

In fact, Liu Decai suspected that this guy was just showing off his wealth, and that his real intentions were not what they seemed.

This really put Jiang Baobin in a difficult position, as he was genuinely planning to acquire some nice items.

He wants to increase the value of his goods; once he sells them, he'll make a lot of money.

It would be such a waste to leave it unused for decades.

On the way back, this guy suddenly had a flash of inspiration and, "slap!", slapped himself.

"You idiot! You're so stupid!"

He finally realized why Jiang Lao Er had come to the mansion so desperately.

Previously, he had always assumed that the other party was after Jiang Daya, so he never considered that it might be him.

But when they met, something felt off, because Jiang Baowu's attention wasn't on Daya at all.

Instead, they beat around the bush and asked me several questions about myself.

This is a spy sent to betray his own family!

Jiang Baobin jerked the steering wheel and rushed home like a madman.

I learned from my younger sister that she hadn't let Jiang Baowu in, and hadn't mentioned anything about Wang Wenshan.

He was slightly relieved.

This angered Jiang Daya, who retorted, "Hmph, do you think I'm stupid?"

"My second brother is a policeman! Can I tell him about something like that?"

Jiang Baobin quickly gave him a thumbs up, showered him with flattery, and even offered him some money.

Jiang Daya then turned her anger into joy.

When handing over the money, Jiang Baobin repeatedly instructed—

As for Wang Wenshan, this must be kept a secret, not even from your parents...

Jiang Baobin never expected that this trip to Tianjin would last for ten days.

During this time, he actually saved Elizabeth's life...
