Chapter 2485 Xu Damao's Boasting
Chapter 2485 Xu Damao's Boasting
Sha Zhu opened his eyes and saw Xu Damao sitting to the side, staring at him.
More importantly, Xu Damao's face was filled with dissatisfaction and resentment. He looked as if he had done something that would incur divine wrath and public wrath.
The problem is, he didn't do anything.
He only remembered drinking with Qin Huairu and listening to her push all the problems onto Yi Zhonghai and the other two.
It was Yi Zhonghai and two others who, for their own selfish reasons, forced her to scheme against them.
Although Sha Zhu had drunk a bit too much, he remembered clearly. He hadn't agreed to any of Qin Huairu's conditions.
Even if you agree, you can choose not to admit it.
Suddenly, Sha Zhu remembered Qin Huairu's words: Liu Guangtian and the others ran back because they wanted to eat his last remaining offspring.
"I have a question for you."
Xu Damao angrily pointed at Sha Zhu: "Why are you asking me? I should be asking you the same question."
Are you hanging out with Qin Huairu again?
"You've forgotten how the Jia family treated you."
"I haven't forgotten," Sha Zhu quickly said. "Are you crazy? They hurt me so badly, how could I forget?"
What's wrong with you?
Seeing that Sha Zhu didn't seem to have forgotten, Xu Damao asked, "Then why did you drink with Qin Huairu?"
Do you realize that when she came to ask you to drink, she had no good intentions?
“I know,” Sha Zhu said with a hint of smugness. “I just wanted to see what kind of wicked thoughts she had in mind.”
I'm telling you, he came to me with food and drinks and said…
Next, Sha Zhu told Xu Damao everything Qin Huairu had said, without hiding anything.
He even said the things Qin Huairu said to slander Xu Damao.
"She thought I was still the same brainless idiot Zhu I used to be."
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that you braved such heavy snow to come find me means I wouldn't hesitate to give you my house.
Xu Damao spat and said, "I'm a childless man, what use is your house to me?"
Sha Zhu lost his smugness and patted Xu Damao on the shoulder with a wry smile: "I'm not childless, but I'm better off without a family."
Xu Damao removed his hand: "Don't flatter yourself."
"This is my fate, you brought it on yourself. I'm not like you."
Sha Zhu shamelessly said, "The result is the same. Why bother arguing so much?"
Xu Damao was too lazy to argue with him and pressed on, "Qin Huairu came all this way just to talk to you about these things. Didn't she make any other requests?"
Sha Zhu chuckled: "She'd like to bring it up, but I'll have to give her the chance."
She kept telling me that she would have Bang Geng take care of me in my old age.
I'm not stupid. Bang Geng is an ungrateful wretch who can't be satisfied.
I'd rather hope Yi Zhonghai comes back to life and I could tear him to pieces than rely on him for old age.
"Tell me, do you think Liu Guangtian and his group came back specifically to exploit the descendants of the deceased?"
Xu Damao said, "That's nonsense. If they weren't after your childless heir, why would they come back?"
They wanted to be the next Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui. First, they wanted to drive the Jia family out, and then they wanted to take advantage of their remaining descendants.
I knew they were coming the very first day.
"Then why didn't you tell me?" Sha Zhu was so focused on hating the Jia family that he hadn't thought about this possibility.
This is also related to his preconceived notions about Liu Guangtian and his group.
In his mind, Liu Guangtian and his ilk were his defeated opponents, and they would turn into mice before a cat whenever they saw him.
He never imagined that Liu Guangtian and his three companions would dare to scheme against him.
Xu Damao said, "Why should I remind you? They want to take advantage of your family's lack of descendants, but we can also use them to our advantage and deal with the Jia family."
As you saw, after they arrived, we got to indulge in being the big shots and even had a chance to teach the Jia family a lesson.
Sha Zhu pointed at Xu Damao: "No wonder Qin Huairu said you're not a villain."
You are indeed quite insidious.
"If you're so cunning, how come you couldn't deal with Yi Zhonghai before?"
This brings us to Xu Damao's sad story.
It's not that he can't handle Yi Zhonghai, it's that he can't handle Sha Zhu. Yi Zhonghai likes to use underhanded tricks, and Xu Damao happens to like them too.
Xu Damao was not afraid of Yi Zhonghai at all, resorting to underhanded tactics in response to underhanded tactics.
Yi Zhonghai values his reputation, so he can't resort to many underhanded tactics openly.
Xu Damao is different. He doesn't care about a good reputation; he's willing to use anything as long as it can bring down Yi Zhonghai.
Xu Damao glared at Sha Zhu through gritted teeth: "It's all because of you, you idiot."
If Yi Zhonghai can't outmaneuver him with tricks, he'll send Sha Zhu out to deal with him by force.
Many times, his plans were thwarted by Sha Zhu's force before they even began.
He had no chance to deal with Yi Zhonghai at all.
The situation at the time was that to deal with Yi Zhonghai, it was necessary to deal with Sha Zhu.
To deal with Sha Zhu, we must first deal with Yi Zhonghai.
He was caught in a dilemma. If he pressed one side, he couldn't press the other.
In addition, there's the fence-sitter in the courtyard, the maintenance by the street office, and the maintenance by Director Yang.
He was alone and helpless, and his chances of winning were slim.
Once Yi Zhonghai has reached a certain level of strength, it will be even more impossible for him to deal with Yi Zhonghai.
The closest he came was during a political movement when he became the deputy director.
Unfortunately, by then, Yi Zhonghai had already become a coward and couldn't find any openings.
He, too, was blinded by power and thought he could replace Li Huaide.
Hearing Xu Damao's words, Sha Zhu looked incredulous: "Don't flatter yourself."
How many unethical things did you do when you were the deputy director?
I only saw you getting your bangs done and Yan Bugui done; I didn't see you getting Yi Zhonghai done at all.
Xu Damao argued, "I was too busy. If it weren't for you messing around, I would have sent Yi Zhonghai to the Northwest."
"That's bullshit. Only a few people from our factory were sent there." Sha Zhu didn't believe Xu Damao's words.
Xu Damao said, "Have you forgotten about Uncle He sending you money?"
As long as I hold onto this, he absolutely cannot escape.
Sha Zhu was stunned and forgot about it. If Xu Damao had really brought it up back then, Yi Zhonghai would definitely not have been able to escape.
"No, you didn't know about my dad sending money back then."
He only mentioned sending money after he returned.
Xu Damao certainly didn't know at the time, but he would never admit it.
"I don't know, but I can check. Someone must have seen the letter Uncle He sent back back then."
Putting aside everything else, the post office deliverymen, like Yan Bugui, definitely knew.
The neighbors nearby will also know.
Once I become the director, I will arrest Yi Zhonghai.
When the time comes, someone will come and tell me without me having to say anything.
I dare say, the first person to tell me this was most likely Yan Bugui.
Sha Zhu wanted to refute, but he couldn't.
Yan Bugui is the kind of person who will follow whoever offers him benefits. If Xu Damao were to become the director, Yan Bugui might just betray Yi Zhonghai if he were given any favors.
Xu Damao, seeing that he had persuaded Sha Zhu, showed a smug look on his face and boasted about how he planned to deal with Yi Zhonghai.
The tricks he mentioned were all things he'd seen in TV dramas.
Sha Zhu was completely fooled by him and didn't see the problem at all. He even helped him come up with ideas, saying that Xu Damao's methods were too merciful.
The two bickered and eventually got to the bottom of things.
Sha Zhu suddenly remembered that Xu Damao was angry, so he asked, "Is Qin Huairu causing trouble again?"
Why are you so angry?
Xu Damao shook his head: "No, she got drunk too. I was just afraid you wouldn't learn your lesson, that's why I got angry."
Sha Zhu was finally relieved: "I'm not stupid. I was watching Qin Huairu closely; she drank one glass, and then I drank one too." (End of Chapter)
