The middle-aged man looked grim, his face tense and he said nothing.

The old man looked at Wan An Ning with a sad face, and said pleadingly: "Girl, do you still remember me?"

Wan An Ning frowned and looked at the old man carefully. He seemed a little familiar, but she couldn't remember who he was.

"Have we met?"

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "You don't remember? I'm the old Wang who sold you the house at No. 36 Yida Street a few months ago?"

Wan An Ning immediately understood: "So it's you."

She turned to look at the middle-aged man next to the old man: "Then this must be your son? He was the one who forced me to give up the compensation for the house demolition, right?"

Wang Guofeng snorted coldly, seeming very unconvinced, but was kicked hard by Old Wang.

He cursed, "What a misfortune for our family!"

He bowed deeply to Wan An Ning again:

"Girl, we were wrong about this matter. My son and his friends have already been punished. Can you please let it go?"

Without waiting for Wan An Ning to speak, Wang Guofeng glared at him unconvincedly: "Dad, what's the point of you begging her? She's just lucky. How can a woman like her have a say in the affairs of the National Cotton Mill?"

Old Wang reached out and slapped Wang Guofeng on the head: "You bastard, look at what you have done, why don't you apologize to him quickly, do you want to piss off your father to death?"

Wang Guofeng was not convinced: "What are you talking about, Dad? If you hadn't sold the old house so quickly, causing our family to lose such a large amount of demolition compensation, would I have done those things?"

Old Wang's face froze. He also regretted selling the house. When he thought about the demolition compensation which was much higher than the house price, he regretted it so much that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.

For this reason, when Zhang Yuzhu showed off the demolition compensation in front of him, he directly fell out with his old neighbor Zhang Yuzhu of many years, and complained openly about Zhang Yuzhu's meddling, which led to his losing such a large sum of money by selling his house at a low price.

It was also because of this that he chose to turn a blind eye to his son and daughter-in-law's actions. He thought that with his son's ability, even if he could not get back all the demolition compensation, even if he got back part of it, it would still be a considerable income.

But he never expected that his son and his family not only did not get a penny, but his daughter-in-law and mother-in-law were locked up, and his son lost his job.

He secretly took some things to the factory director's house at night, begging the director to show leniency to his son, hoping to keep his son's job at the state cotton mill.

After he begged again and again, the factory director reluctantly told him that it was not the factory that wanted to embarrass his son, but that his son had been doing too many small things recently and had offended people who should not be offended...

Old Wang thought about it again and again, and it seemed that all his son's recent little actions were directed at one person.

After returning home, Old Wang began to ask Wang Guofeng about some details of what he had done.

The father and son studied it for a long time but still couldn't understand why a person with no identity or background could put him in such a passive situation.

Finally, Old Wang decided to take Wang Guofeng to apologize and plead with Wan An Ning. No matter what, as long as Wan An Ning did not pursue the matter, with Wang Guofeng's connections, he should be able to settle the matter.

The father and son arrived at the entrance of the hotel. Old Wang saw the banner that had not been removed at the entrance. The words on the banner made his heart sink.

Old Wang didn't understand why his son was so reckless. He said that the woman had no background at all. If she really had no background or identity, how could she live in this hotel at this time?

Didn't he do a thorough investigation to find out who is staying in this hotel now?

Before Old Wang and Wang Guofeng could finish their words, they saw Wan An Ning coming back from outside.

The father and son didn't care too much and hurried forward to stop An Ning.

Wan An looked at the father and son quietly, feeling like they were performing a double act.

"Please move aside. If you want to quarrel, please do it to the side. I'm going in."

Old Wang was stunned for a moment, watching Wan An Ning bypass them and enter the hotel. He didn't care about anything else and knelt down in front of An Ning...

Wan Ning was startled and just as he was about to dodge, Old Wang grabbed his trouser leg.

"Girl, I beg you, please let our family go!"

Old Wang pleaded loudly, instantly attracting many passers-by to watch.

Wang Guofeng clenched his fists and glared at Wan An Ning, as if Wan An Ning had done something that was hated by God and man.

"Don't push me too far. My father is so old and he has already knelt down for you. What else do you want?"

Wan An Ning was furious, pointing at Wang Guofeng and yelling, "You are such an unfilial person. If there is anything wrong, can't you solve it yourself? Your father is so old, why do you still force him to kneel down and plead for you, an unfilial son!"

Her voice was also loud, and she immediately blamed Wang Guofeng for all the reasons why Old Wang knelt down.

Before the onlookers had the chance to blame Wan An Ning, they immediately turned their blaming eyes to Wang Guofeng when they heard that it was Wang Guofeng who forced his elderly father to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"This guy is really too much. He is already in his forties, and he can't even take responsibility for his own actions, but he still embarrasses his father by bringing him out."

"That's right. I did something wrong and I have to take the blame myself. How can I let an old man of such age come out to beg for mercy?"

"When I saw this old man, I thought of my son getting into trouble outside and me going to apologize to people. But my son is only a few years old. It is really hard for me to imagine that decades later, my son would still ask me to apologize to people like this. I'd rather not have this son!"

……

Naturally, what people say is also heard by Old Wang and Wang Guofeng, father and son.

Wang Guofeng glanced at the crowd with a gloomy face. He had been a leader for a while and had a certain degree of intimidation. He really frightened those who were talking. They couldn't help but lower their voices and dared not talk recklessly anymore.

Old Wang had an embarrassed look on his face, and was almost unable to kneel down after being told so many things by everyone.

When Wang Guofeng reached out to help him up, he did not stop him and stood up.

At this time, the people in the hotel heard the noise and came out to check the situation. Zhao Hang was also called down.

He stood beside Wan An Ning with a cold face, and it was obvious that he was supporting her.

"You don't have to force her. She's just a victim and doesn't know anything else. If you have any problems, just come to me!"

Zhao Hang's tone was very calm, but it was this calm tone that made Old Wang and Wang Guofeng, father and son, shiver involuntarily.

Zhao Hang signaled the hotel staff to come forward and evacuate the crowd, then took Wan An Ning, as well as Old Wangtou and Wang Guofeng, father and son, into the hotel lobby.

"Tell me what you want to say."

Zhao Hang was the first to sit on the sofa by the window in the lobby, then motioned Wan An Ning to sit next to him, and then he looked at the father and son with disdain.

Old Wang continued to act pitiful: "Comrade, this is my son who did something wrong. He knows he was wrong now and will never do it again. Can you forgive him this time?"

Wang Guofeng wanted to hold on, but Old Wang pulled him aside and whispered something to him. He instantly collapsed...

While Wang Guofeng was being scolded by Old Wang, Zhao Hang was also asking Wan An Ning how he was going to deal with this matter?

"Are you going to investigate to the end and let them go to jail if they deserve it, lose their jobs if they deserve it, or let them bleed and let this matter go?"

Wan An Ning thought about it and finally chose the latter!

Zhao Hang looked at Wan An Ning helplessly, but when he thought of the environment Wan An Ning was in, he understood her choice.

Wan An Ning is different from him after all. With their status and position, if they are offended, he no longer needs monetary compensation. Either they apologize or they are pressed to the ground by him!

But for Wan An Ning, more actual monetary compensation might be more realistic.

When people are poor, dignity and other things can be put aside.

"Okay, I'll take care of this. You go back to your room first. I'll come find you when I'm done!"
