Chapter 429: It's a bit of a shame that we can't double-cross each other anymore.
Wei Laosan felt that his mouth, face, and tongue no longer belonged to him.
He couldn't say a single word clearly.
It just kept repeating, "Old Hu, Rat, Old..."
Because of Wei Laosan's current wretched appearance, Su Niannian did not take the main road where there were many people.
They planned to use Wei Laosan's matter to see how Gao Yunshan would react.
Su Niannian felt that Gao Yunshan was unaware that Wei Laosan had come to rob her.
But what if Gao Yunshan knew about it? Or what if it was Gao Yunshan who arranged it?
Then Su Niannian had other methods waiting for Gao Yunshan.
At this moment, Gao Yunshan, like a busy little bee, shuttled through various alleys, riding his bicycle, searching for Su Niannian's figure.
I don't know how it all happened so coincidentally.
Gao Yunshan and Su Niannian unexpectedly met in an alley.
When Gao Yunshan saw Su Niannian walking unharmed, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally felt much relieved.
With a smile on his face, he rode off in Su Niannian's direction.
However, when they saw that there were two men behind Su Niannian, and that they were supporting an injured person.
Gao Yunshan frowned slightly.
"Miss Su." Gao Yunshan had just called out to Su Niannian.
The man being supported by the two men behind Su Niannian looked somewhat familiar.
But I don't know who that person is.
But why does it look so familiar?
Gao Yunshan also noticed the crotch of the person being held up...
Did he poop and pee from being beaten?
Thinking about it, Gao Yunshan couldn't help but gasp.
This person must be in a lot of pain; they even vomited.
"Brother Gao." Su Niannian stopped when she saw Gao Yunshan riding his bicycle toward her.
She smiled and waited where she was.
When Gao Yunshan parked his bicycle next to Su Niannian, he got off and went to Su Niannian's side.
"Miss Su, I've finally found you. I've been looking for you for ages," Gao Yunshan said to Su Niannian.
Upon hearing Gao Yunshan say that he was looking for her, Su Niannian became curious.
"What does Brother Gao want with me?" Su Niannian asked with a smile.
Gao Yunshan glanced at Su Niannian, then at the two men behind her.
He lowered his voice and said to Su Niannian, "I have a little brother named Wei Laosan... you met him during the transaction just now."
"He made an excuse to go to the outhouse and hasn't come back. I'm worried that he might have had a moment of despair and went to look for you." Gao Yunshan said, glancing at the three men twice.
The man being held up and beaten until his head was swollen looked increasingly familiar to Gao Yunshan.
However, with his face so swollen, even his own mother might not recognize him. Gao Yunshan simply couldn't tell if it was someone he knew.
Clothes, pants, and the dirt on the pants.
I wonder what this person went through to get beaten so badly.
"Being beaten like this must hurt a lot," Gao Yunshan couldn't help but think.
Over there, Su Niannian heard Gao Yunshan's words and gave him a deep look.
"Isn't it Brother Gao who wants the money in my hand? So he sent your underlings to rob me?" Su Niannian asked with a smile and a normal voice.
But hearing these words sent a chill down Gao Yunshan's spine.
"Of course not. If I had asked you to do it, why would I be here with you?"
"Look," Gao Yunshan said, pointing to the bag of rice behind him.
"After completing the transaction with you, I originally planned to deliver the goods to the factory manager at the textile factory." As he spoke, Gao Yunshan's expression suddenly darkened.
"To be honest, Miss Su, I..." Gao Yunshan said, but when he thought of his few ungrateful underlings, he really felt a toothache.
Suddenly, I felt as if something was stuck in my chest.
Su Niannian observed Gao Yunshan's expression from the side.
Judging from his appearance, he seems genuinely unaware of the situation.
Su Niannian waited for Gao Yunshan to continue.
Gao Yunshan then recounted in detail everything he had just heard and seen to Su Niannian.
Listening to this, Su Niannian felt that Gao Yunshan was misjudging people.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time.
Otherwise, with the loss of such a batch of rice, there would be no chance of recovery.
Su Niannian remembered that Gao Yunshan had said that he had limited funds for his operations.
Part of the money for buying rice was borrowed from friends.
Once these goods are lost, Gao Yunshan will likely have no chance of making a comeback.
Su Niannian looked at Gao Yunshan intently.
Actually, Su Niannian originally planned to take advantage of sending Wei Laosan back to pack all the rice she had just traded into her spatial storage and take it with her.
After all, Su Niannian didn't want to give her things away to people with bad intentions.
Since they want to rob me of my money, it's only natural for me to double-cross them.
This is called cause and effect, and retribution is inevitable.
But looking at Gao Yunshan's expression, demeanor, and words, they didn't seem fake at all.
Thinking that he was also a victim, she decided not to hold his problems against him.
"This is Wei Laosan, the one you said came to find me. Now that you're here, you can take him back."
"..." Gao Yunshan looked at Su Niannian and said, "The person being supported between the two of them is actually Wei Laosan?"
No wonder it felt familiar.
But how did people become like this?
How could a perfectly healthy person be beaten to the point where they wouldn't even recognize themselves?
Su Niannian saw that Gao Yunshan looked surprised.
"The person is still alive, nothing serious, just superficial injuries, they will recover well."
"I was badly injured by the stray dogs at the beginning, and it may take some time to recover."
"I originally intended to take him to the police station, but given our recent transaction, I was afraid it would cause unnecessary trouble, so I thought I'd send him to you instead."
"Now that you're here, I'll just hand you over," Su Niannian said to Gao Yunshan.
Gao Yunshan took a moment to process Su Niannian's words.
But seeing Wei Laosan's current state, Gao Yunshan felt even more strongly that Su Niannian was a person with a powerful background and abilities.
To be able to beat someone up like this...
Gao Yunshan stepped forward, wanting to help Wei Laosan away from the two men.
"They're all external injuries; he should be fine," Guo Futian said to Gao Yunshan, then handed Wei Laosan over to Gao Yunshan.
Gao Yunshan nodded his thanks and accepted the gift from Wei Laosan.
"Thank you," Gao Yunshan said, taking a closer look at the person he was talking to.
This person looks kind of familiar!
After a quick search of his mind, a signboard and a name appeared in Gao Yunshan's mind.
"Bai Cao Tang, Mr. Guo..." Gao Yunshan asked uncertainly.
