Chapter 280 Someone is causing trouble
In a room at a five-star hotel next to Seoul University.
Last night, Li Menghan and Huo Qian sat in front of that large desk.
Neither of them did anything out of line.
Huo Qian held the textbook and explained the key knowledge points of the first semester to Li Menghan very seriously.
Li Menghan also completely put aside her own thoughts and sat down to listen very attentively.
Huo Qian explained in great detail, breaking down each difficult point and explaining it several times until Li Menghan fully understood.
The lights in the room stayed on all night.
The two of them spent the whole night reading and studying.
By the next morning, it was fully light.
Li Menghan closed his book and looked at Huo Qian sitting next to him.
He felt very fulfilled.
He felt that this evening had been very meaningful.
He didn't think about his past messy relationship problems, nor did he think about how to spend the money.
He simply learned a lot of useful things.
Huo Qian stood up and stretched.
She looked at Li Menghan with a smile on her face and said:
"Alright, that's all for today. You should have a pretty good understanding of these points now. As long as you follow the teacher's pace, you'll definitely be fine for the exam."
Li Menghan nodded gratefully.
He picked up the car keys from the table and said to Huo Qian:
"Thank you, Huo Qian. You've really worked hard today. Let's pack our things, check out, and head back to school now."
Huo Qian agreed, and the two of them picked up their books and left the hotel room together.
They went downstairs, checked out of the room, got into the red Ferrari LaFerrari, and drove back to Seoul University.
……
at the same time.
In Lijia Village, dozens of kilometers away from Han City.
Eight o'clock in the morning.
Li Ze opened his eyes on the bed in the guest room of his third brother Li Yuanping's house.
He sat up in bed and rubbed his temples vigorously with his hands.
He felt dizzy and very uncomfortable.
Last night was the Lantern Festival, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Li Ze carried the dragon head and ran around the village for a long time, having a great time playing with the dragon lantern.
Later, after a village feast, he went back to his third brother's house with his eldest brother Li Guoqing and his third brother.
The three brothers sat around the table, eating snacks and chatting about their childhood.
Everyone was very happy.
Li Ze also failed to control his alcohol intake, and he drank three whole bottles of strong liquor in one go with his older and third brothers.
Although Li Ze's body has been modified by the system, making him much stronger than an ordinary person.
But even after drinking so much, I still felt the hangover this morning.
Li Ze sat on the edge of the bed and gave a helpless smile.
He is now a middle-aged man in his forties.
I always feel very happy when I drink, and I can't stop drinking.
However, the morning after drinking, the body has to pay the price with a headache.
Li Ze stood up and put on his very comfortable and high-end casual wear.
He picked up the string of beads from the bedside table and slowly walked out of the guest room.
We went into the main room outside.
Third Sister-in-law Liu Fang had already prepared breakfast and placed it on a wooden table.
On the table were steaming bowls of white rice porridge, freshly steamed meat buns, and several dishes of very appetizing pickled vegetables.
At this moment, the eldest brother, Li Guoqing, also walked in from outside.
He drank too much last night and slept at his third brother's house.
Li Ze pulled out a chair and sat down at the table.
Third Sister-in-law brought over a white porcelain bowl and placed it in front of Li Ze.
Third Sister-in-law said to Li Ze:
"Fourth brother, quickly drink this bowl of hot soup. This is a special hangover soup I made, with vinegar and pepper in it. It will warm your stomach a lot after you drink it."
Li Ze nodded and loudly thanked him.
He picked up the bowl and took a big gulp.
The sour and spicy soup made him feel much more awake after it entered his stomach.
My head isn't as dizzy as it was before.
Third Brother Li Yuanping also pulled out a chair and sat down. He took a big meat bun and took a bite.
The three of them ate breakfast and chatted idly.
Li Guoqing, the eldest brother, looked at Li Ze and said with great concern:
"Zezi, you really drank too much last night. From now on, when we eat together, we should drink less alcohol. Your health is the most important thing."
Li Ze smiled and nodded in agreement. He replied:
"Big brother is right. Yesterday, we were all playing with the dragon lantern together, and then we talked about those old things from the past. I was so happy that I couldn't control my drinking."
Third Brother, while munching on a steamed bun, said loudly:
"Yes. It's not easy for the fourth brother to come back for the Lantern Festival, so everyone's happy. It's normal to have a couple of drinks."
After breakfast.
Li Ze sat in a chair, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, and slowly sipped it.
He planned to go out in a little while to check on the construction site on the west side of the village.
They are building a very large Chinese-style manor for him there.
Li Ze valued this project very much.
Because this is where he, Ruoran, and their two children will live when they return to their hometown.
He wanted the house to be built as soon as possible.
Just as he was drinking tea and making plans in his mind,
The front door of my third brother's house was suddenly pushed open very forcefully from the outside.
The door was pushed open with a loud noise, and the door panel slammed against the wall with a loud thud.
A middle-aged man wearing a yellow hard hat ran quickly in from outside.
The man was panting heavily, covered in sweat, and looked extremely anxious.
When Third Brother Li Yuanping saw this person, he immediately stood up from his chair.
He knows this person.
This is one of the foremen he leads at the manor construction site; he is usually very honest and conscientious in his work.
The foreman ran to the table, looked at the third brother, and then at Li Ze who was sitting.
Before he could even catch his breath, he said very loudly:
"Something terrible has happened! Boss! There's been a major accident at the construction site!"
Upon hearing this, Third Brother immediately frowned.
He asked the foreman loudly:
"What exactly happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
The foreman wiped the sweat from his brow and quickly began to explain.
The foreman said:
"This morning, the workers had just finished breakfast and went to the construction site to get ready to start working."
"Then we saw a large group of people rushing in from a dirt road outside the village."
"There were about forty or fifty of them, all of them unfamiliar faces. They were carrying thick wooden sticks, as well as shovels and hoes."
The foreman swallowed hard and continued:
"After they got into the construction site, they immediately surrounded the excavators that were digging."
"They shouted at all the workers to stop working immediately and not to continue working."
Upon hearing this, the eldest brother, Li Guoqing, stood up angrily.
He shouted:
"This is our Li Family Village's land! The fourth brother paid for the house himself, and the village agreed. What right do they have to stop him from working?"
The foreman replied with great frustration:
"Those people are completely unreasonable."
"The workers went up to them to argue, asking what they were doing. They didn't say a word, but just started pushing people."
"They were very unreasonable, saying that if the workers dared to continue operating the machines, they would smash all the excavators."
The foreman looked at his third brother and said anxiously:
"The workers are all scared and have backed away; no one dares to go near. The project has completely stopped. I had no choice but to rush over to let you know."
Li Ze sat in the chair and listened quietly to what the foreman had to say.
His expression was very calm, without any sign of panic.
He slowly put down the teacup in his hand.
Li Ze knew very well that this was definitely not an ordinary village dispute.
He built this large estate in Lijia Village, and the wages he paid to the workers were the highest standard on other construction sites, and he paid them on time every day.
He has never offended anyone around him.
Suddenly, a group of people appeared, carrying wooden sticks and shovels, and started causing trouble.
There must be a reason behind this, or perhaps someone is deliberately instructing them to do this.
Li Ze is a man who has seen a lot of the world.
In his eyes, such a small-scale disturbance was nothing serious.
He stood up from his chair and straightened his casual jacket with his hand.
He held the string of beads in his hand and slowly turned it around.
Li Ze turned his head and looked at his eldest and third brothers, who were very anxious.
His tone was very relaxed, and he even had a slight smile on his face.
He said to them:
"Big brother, third brother, you don't need to be so anxious. And don't be angry."
"Since someone is deliberately causing trouble for us and trying to stop us from building our house, we'll go and see for ourselves what they're up to."
Li Guoqing, the eldest brother, looked at Li Ze with some concern.
He began to speak:
"Zezi, there are forty or fifty of them, and they're armed with weapons. We only have a few people going there. What if they start a fight? We'll definitely be at a disadvantage."
Li Guoqing thought for a moment, then proposed:
"How about we call the police first and have them come and handle this?"
Li Ze shook his head, rejecting the suggestion outright.
He calmly said to his elder brother:
"Brother, you don't need to worry about safety."
"Don't forget I have other people with me."
"No one in this territory can touch me without my permission."
Li Ze's voice rose a little, and he said in a very domineering tone:
"I'm going to go see for myself today who's so blind as to dare to cause trouble on my construction site."
Hearing Li Ze's confident words, the eldest and third brothers felt much less nervous.
They recalled the bodyguards in black suits under Li Ze's command; those men were indeed very capable.
So, no one hesitated any longer.
Li Ze walked in front, followed by his eldest brother, third brother, and the foreman.
The four people walked out of the courtyard and hurried along the main road in the village toward the construction site.
Not far behind them.
The old man, dressed in ordinary clothes and accompanied by several cyborg bodyguards, had already followed very discreetly.
They followed behind Li Ze, keeping a close eye on their surroundings, ready to protect him at any moment.
