Chapter 280 Effort is the key to difference
An old woman threw a handful of shredded hair into a paper cup, then poured in some yogurt and stirred it.
"Press her mouth down, press it down!"
The old woman was going to force-feed Chen Huan yogurt mixed with stray hairs into his stomach.
"Now that we're here, do you think I'm afraid you won't tell the truth?"
Do you know how powerful this thing is?
Once you drink it, you can't grasp it, you can't scratch it; it feels like a thousand needles pricking your intestines.
Hold it down and pour it in!
The three old women worked together to force-feed her.
Chen Huan was already terrified, crying and pleading, her mouth covered, her words indistinct: "No, no..."
I really don't know what a red booklet is.
I've never seen it before.
"Really, I really didn't steal it."
The older female prisoner in charge grinned menacingly upon hearing this: "Whether you stole it or not, we don't care at all."
I just can't stand a slut like you.
Now that you've fallen into our hands, you're doomed!
"Let's do it!"
The three old women got excited and worked together to pour the contents of the cup into Chen Huan's mouth.
In case she doesn't swallow, some people will pinch her nose and suck in the contents of her mouth, which will then be sucked in.
After pouring the last bit down, the female prisoner in charge covered Chen Huan's mouth with her hand, forcing her to drink every last drop.
But that's not all.
To prevent Chen Huan from vomiting immediately by gagging, the three old women pulled Chen Huan up.
Use clothes to tie her hands behind her back on the bed.
Then someone went around behind Chen Shuang and grabbed her hair from behind.
Chen Shuang's head was thrown back by the force, and someone else stood in front of Chen Shuang with their legs spread apart, took a bottle of mineral water and poured some into Chen Shuang's mouth to help him swallow the contents of the bottle.
After finishing all that, the person behind Chen Shuang finally let go.
Chen Shuang sat on the floor, her hands tied to the bed behind her back, her eyes filled with fear, and she kept crying.
The three of them stayed by her side.
"If you admit to stealing the notebook, you'll suffer less from now on."
We can arrange for you to see a doctor immediately.
If you don't accept it, then be prepared that every day from now on will be like this.
We have a million ways to deal with you, and the longer it goes on, the less you can handle it.
Today will be the happiest day of your life.
The female prisoner in charge had her hands behind her back and a very ruthless look in her eyes.
Chen Shuang believed that this woman was a woman of her word, so he reluctantly nodded: "Okay, I agree."
"Where did you hide that notebook after you stole it?"
"Where...where did I hide?" Chen Huan didn't know either, and looked at the woman who asked the question with fear.
"You burned it because you were scared, right?"
Yes, yes.
That's how things were arranged.
As for what kind of pressure Chen Huan will face after leaving here? Will Zhou Xiangzhang's faction continue to pursue her for that notebook?
These are not issues that these three old women need to consider, nor are they issues that Xiao Yanfang, who is hiding in the shadows, needs to consider.
What they wanted to ensure was that David would not be affected.
Shifting the blame eastward.
After observing from the shadows for a while, Xiao Yanfang turned around and prepared to go home. The mute man followed beside her and opened the car door for her.
After getting on the bus, the mute man started gesturing.
It means that Jiang Xiong sent someone to find him and asked him to pass on a message, asking Xiao Yanfang when she would be free to go fishing at sea in Huicheng.
Xiao Yanfang, of course, did not believe any of that nonsense about going out to sea to fish.
They go out to do transactions.
If you go there, you'll become one of Jiang Xiong's men.
She stared intently at the mute man for over ten seconds, but he remained calm and met her gaze without changing his expression.
This person was brought into the Xiapu branch by Xiao Jinding, and now Xiao Yanfang has taken over the reins. Currently, he listens to Xiao Yanfang's every word.
"Dumb guy, if you had to choose between me and Jiang Xiong, who would you choose?"
Without hesitation, the mute man pointed at Xiao Yanfang.
"Fine, tell the person who delivered the message that I'm not going. I'm not the kind of person they think I am, so don't even think about messing with me."
The mute man nodded and drove away.
……
Dawei took Tingting to finish breakfast.
Tingting then prepared to say goodbye.
"So rushed?"
"It'll take another five or six hours to drive back. Tomorrow's Monday, and I have so much to do. I have to get back today."
David was a little reluctant to part with her. Sitting in the car, he took her hand and said, "We came all this way, but we didn't do anything."
Next time we meet, don't bother with all that fancy stuff.
"It would be so nice if we could have a chat over that time."
Tingting pouted: "Stop talking, I won't do it again... It was all to pursue you."
David opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it over: "You can't catch a person. This is something that happens naturally when the time is right. Trying too hard will only make things worse."
Upon hearing this, Tingting smiled with relief.
Isn't that exactly right?
Let alone love, many things in the world are like this: effort leads to failure.
Su Dongpo wrote so many articles in his lifetime, and on his deathbed he summarized it in these four words.
In other words, if you have to put in too much effort to get something in this world, the outcome is often not very good.
So, let nature take its course.
"I'm sorry I wasn't of much help this time."
"You've helped with this kind of thing enough, haven't you? If the brand name isn't yours, it won't be finalized even next week."
Ding Tingting chuckled awkwardly, "That's because you didn't make a move. Your skill level is far above mine."
"Even if I could think of someone like you, I couldn't say I wasn't. Otherwise, wouldn't I become another Zhou Xiangzhang, and our Yuanshan Fruit Industry would be a repeat of the camphor tree incident?"
Tingting thought about it and agreed. Dawei's way of giving advice was different from others, and it sounded comforting, which made her feel better.
"Come on, take me back to the hotel, I need to go home."
David sent a message to Director Wu, then drove to the hotel.
I went upstairs to help Tingting pack her things, then came downstairs with her suitcase.
The two then saw Director Wu standing next to Tingting's car.
"Director Wu?" Tingting asked, somewhat surprised.
Old Wu patted the trunk of her car and said with a smile, "Director Ding, open it for a moment."
My wife got some local specialties, nothing valuable, haha.
"Take it back and let your uncles, aunts, and Mr. Xu try it."
Tingting glanced at the fertilizer bags and other things on the ground, then casually opened the trunk: "Look at you, being so polite, I won't dare come here again."
"Oh, that won't do. I'll take it back with me."
"Haha, just kidding."
The two watched Ding Tingting leave.
After the car drove away, Wu Maocai's expression changed drastically.
"County magistrate, something has happened."
"What's wrong?!"
"Lin Qiufeng, something's happened."
