Chapter 891 Give Deputy Director Li a Day
Deputy Director Li looked at Xu Damao's impatience, frowning slightly, and said hesitantly, "Da Mao, you're too impatient. Isn't ten days too short? This isn't going to be easy. It's going to take some time."
Xu Damao knew clearly that Deputy Director Li was stalling and had no real intention of saving him. He gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with a desperate rage. "Deputy Director Li, please don't beat around the bush with me. I know you have no intention of helping me. I'll give you ten days. If you don't come to save me in ten days, I'll have no choice but to go to Gu Nan. There are some things you probably don't want him to know, right?"
Deputy Director Li's face darkened at these words. He hadn't expected Xu Damao to actually threaten him. He stared at Xu Damao for a long moment before grappling with his words, "Alright, Xu Damao, you've grown wings, haven't you? You've even learned to threaten me? Okay, I promise I'll come and save you."
Seeing him give in, Xu Damao's tone was filled with a bit of grievance and anxiety. "Deputy Director Li, don't blame me for forcing you. You don't know that I get beaten every day here and live a life worse than pigs and dogs. How can you understand these sufferings?"
In reality, Xu Damao's beating had little to do with Lou Xiao'e. She had indeed found a few people to "look after" him, but they were long gone. The daily beatings he received for the rest of his life were entirely his own fault—his arrogant and domineering nature remained unchangeable even in prison. He tried to show off his power and provoke everyone, so naturally, no one would tolerate him.
Xu Damao had always been a bully outside, always assuming no one dared to touch him. But here, who cared how much influence he had outside? If he provoked anyone, he'd be beaten up. Now he was truly terrified. He couldn't eat or sleep well every day, and at night he had to be on guard against someone looking for trouble. He couldn't bear it any longer, so he placed all his hopes on Deputy Director Li.
He had thought that Deputy Director Li would, out of consideration for their past friendship, quickly get him out, but he hadn't expected him to be so reluctant. He had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure, threatening him with those shady things.
Deputy Director Li was furious. He had never been threatened like this before. But he also knew that Xu Damao was capable of such desperate measures if pushed to the limit. He took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and spoke more slowly. "Damo, trust me. I will definitely find a way to get you out, but this will take time. Can you be patient and wait?"
Although Xu Damao didn't say anything, he had already made up his mind: If Deputy Director Li was unwilling to save him, then he would have no choice but to humble himself and go find Gu Nan.
Deputy Director Li said a few indifferent words to him and then turned and left. Xu Damao watched Deputy Director Li's departing back, and the glimmer of hope in his heart completely dissipated - judging from the posture, Deputy Director Li clearly had no intention of saving him. It seemed that he had no choice but to go find Gu Nan.
Things seemed to be progressing step by step towards Gu Nan's plan. Over at the courtyard, the atmosphere was already bustling with activity.
At the Liu family's side, Liu Haizhong was so angry that he was spinning in circles. Although Yan Bugui had returned the money, the house was ultimately no longer his. How could he not be furious after all his hard work was in vain?
Gu Nan told Ran Qiuye everything that happened outside, with a look of relief on his face: "Qiuye, look, it's good now. No one is thinking of taking advantage of you anymore."
Ran Qiuye smiled and nodded: "The people in this courtyard always like to calculate some small advantages. Now that they have ended up like this, it can be said that they have put an end to their thoughts."
As the days passed and the deadline for his rural assignment drew near, Xu Damao felt a burning sensation, restless and anxious. Deputy Director Li hadn't responded at all, and it was clear he couldn't count on him. He approached the prison guard and urgently said, "There's someone I want to see."
The prison guard didn't want to pay attention to him, but according to the rules, Xu Damao did have a quota to see someone, so he asked impatiently: "Tell me, who do you want to see? But you have to wait for the arrangement, it won't be that fast."
Xu Damao hurriedly said that he wanted to see Gu Nan. The prison guard agreed vaguely and said that he would report the matter to his superiors.
But what Xu Damao didn't know was that the prison guards hadn't reported his wish to see Gu Nan to their superiors. Instead, they turned around and found Deputy Director Li: "Brother Li, Xu Damao wants to see Gu Nan. What do you think... should we let them meet?"
Deputy Director Li didn't expect Xu Damao to be so anxious. After a moment's thought, he said to the prison guard, "Please put this matter aside for now. Don't bother with him. I'll find a way to settle it."
The prison guard nodded, turned and left without saying anything else.
Deputy Director Li looked out the window with a sinister look in his eyes: "Xu Damao, Xu Damao, you asked for this. Don't blame me for being cruel when the time comes."
Deputy Director Li had originally planned to rescue Xu Damao after some time, but now it is different. Xu Damao is going to find Gu Nan, who is his mortal enemy.
Deputy Director Li went to find someone. After all, it was not convenient for him to take action now. But he just needed to find a few people to rescue Xu Damao first, and then deal with him later.
Deputy Director Li called a friend in the Public Security Bureau prison and told him about Xu Damao's situation. The friend at the Public Security Bureau then said that Xu Damao's case was easy to handle.
Deputy Director Li said that this matter was thanks to the help of friends from the Public Security Bureau.
After obtaining the consent of the comrades from the Public Security Bureau, Deputy Director Li realized that it would be difficult to deal with Xu Damao in prison. After all, he could still use him as his own gun after he was released, which would be a good way to deal with Gu Nan.
A director of the Public Security Bureau came to Xu Damao's cell and said, "Who's calling Xu Damao? Come out for a moment."
Xu Damao came out and looked at the director: "I am Xu Damao. I wonder if Gu Nan is here to see me."
The director shook his head and said, "You can leave tomorrow. Your Deputy Director Li is still looking for someone in this matter, but this matter has nothing to do with the Gu Nan you mentioned."
Xu Damao was still very happy. After all, it seemed that his threats were very effective. After Deputy Director Li helped him get out, it seemed that he could still work in the steel rolling mill.
A day passed, and in the morning Xu Damao simply packed up and went out happily.
But after he went out, a few gangsters came over and surrounded Xu Damao.
Xu Damao was really scared. After all, he was beaten every day in prison. He couldn't expect to be beaten every day after he got out. What would he do in the future?
