Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

“Brother Sheng, I was followed today. There were three of them. When they realized that I wanted to lose them, they blocked me and forced me to tell them who the delivery person was. I didn’t say anything, so they beat me up. I was worried that going to the delivery point would expose Yu Bing, so I came back. I thought that if you didn’t see anyone, you would realize that something had happened to me.”

Xiao Sheng frowned and said, “They already know where our delivery point is.”

The Zhou siblings widened their eyes and looked at Xiao Sheng. “Is Sister Yu Bing alright?”

They had a good impression of Yu Bing, who followed the principle of doing more and talking less. Although the two parties usually didn’t communicate much, Yu Bing always remembered to bring them some cookies from time to time. Even if they refused, she would quietly throw the things into the basket on their backs when they turned around.

Xiao Sheng shook his head. “When we saw that you guys weren’t there, we guessed that something might have happened. I got off there. They probably think that I delivered the goods to you directly, so they guessed that I hid them elsewhere.”

The siblings breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Sheng asked again, “Do you know who it is?”

Zhou Qun expressed that he didn’t know. “I only heard them mention the name Brother Wu.”

Xiao Sheng was only familiar with the few leaders beside Brother Qiang. Brother Wu wasn’t among them. He was clearly a lackey. It seemed that he could only investigate secretly.

Xiao Sheng glanced at Zhou Qun, who was lying on the ground. “Get up. I’ll take you to the hospital for a checkup.”

Zhou Qun quickly shook his head and grabbed the bedboard under him. He said firmly, “I’m not going. I’ll be fine in two days.”

Zhou Min cried anxiously at the side, “Brother, just go! You usually bear with the pain. Now, you can only lie in bed. Isn’t this serious enough?”

Seeing this, Xiao Sheng could only threaten, “I’ll pay. After the Lantern Festival, the supply in the city will be restored. If you don’t recover by that time, I’ll find someone else to deliver the goods for me!”

Zhou Qun panicked when he heard that. “Then deduct the treatment fee from my salary.”

Xiao Sheng agreed helplessly and helped Zhou Qun up. Zhou Min ran to the small courtyard and pushed out the cart that usually pulled coal and placed a rag on it.

When they arrived at the hospital, they realized that Zhou Qun’s ribs were fractured. Xiao Sheng felt anger. Those people really didn’t care about human lives at all and only cared about money! They were so ruthless to a teenager!

Fortunately, children of this age were still growing and had strong healing abilities. The doctor only prescribed medicine for ten days, then treated the injuries on his body. He instructed Zhou Qun to come back for a follow-up examination in ten days. If he healed well, there was no need to apply any more medicine.

After Xiao Sheng sent Zhou Qun home, he went to the bank to look for Yu Bing.

As they had already agreed on the time to release the money when the procedures were done, the bank prepared the cash on time. Yu Bing received the money smoothly.

When Xiao Sheng arrived, it was almost ten o’clock. After the two of them got into the car, Xiao Sheng told Yu Bing what had happened.

Yu Bing gritted her teeth and cursed, “These bastards!”

Xiao Sheng pointed at the corner in front and said, “No one usually approaches the corner in front. Leave me there. After I send this batch of goods, we’ll stop the supply. I’ll resume the supply with the city before the Lantern Festival. Drive straight to the police station and wait for me!”

When Yu Bing arrived, Xiao Sheng took the Zhou family’s basket and loaded the goods before going to Brother Qiang.

At this moment, the two people who had lost Xiao Sheng had also returned to the black market. They were reporting the situation to Zhang Chao when they saw Xiao Sheng coming over with the goods.

Xiao Sheng had been observing the black market’s situation. As the clothes of people in this era were similar, Xiao Sheng felt that the two people talking to Zhang Chao looked like the people who were following him. In order not to alert the enemy, he quickly glanced at them and memorized their appearances.

After the delivery, they left the black market as usual. After walking for a while, as Xiao Sheng had expected, someone followed him.

This time, Xiao Sheng didn’t turn around. He deliberately walked into the salon to ask about the price of cutting hair. Through the reflection of the mirror, he saw the stalker’s appearance and confirmed that it was Zhang Chao’s doing.

When the two of them followed Xiao Sheng and saw Yu Bing waiting at the police station, they were terrified.

The most terrifying thing for people in their line of work was seeing the police. They jogged away in apprehension.

When they returned to the village, Yu Bing handed the money to Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei smiled. “Good. I finally see some money coming in!”
