Chapter 58 The Wonderful Use of the Handle
Qin Lang's hearing was not as good as it used to be when he was on the Dan Ding continent, and from a few meters away, he couldn't hear what Cao Yan said to that man. Seeing this man suddenly change his attitude and show concern for the package in his hand, Qin Lang felt suspicious.
What's in this bag that makes these two people so nervous?
Qin Lang secretly suspected, but couldn't find the answer. Because he was very clear that what he had in his hand was an empty bag, and the things inside had long been emptied by the pickpocket. Even if he held the bag now, it would be of no use to him, and an empty bag could hardly give him any inspiration?
"Are you deaf, idiot? I told you to return my bag, did you hear me?" Zhu Ganglie's face turned ugly as he saw Qin Lang hesitating to return his bag, looking like he was about to use force on Qin Lang if he didn't hand it back.
Qin Lang sneered, an empty package, he had originally intended to leave it useless, facing the owner, returning it was a matter of course. But the attitude of this couple made him very unhappy, if anyone else were in his shoes, being called stupid by someone, they probably wouldn't feel good either.
"Do you want the bag?" Qin Lang raised the bag in his hand, "Hehe, how do I know this bag is yours? Why don't you tell me what's inside the bag and I'll check if it matches. If it really belongs to you, I'll return it to you. If not, then I can only wait for the real owner to come and claim it."
"Qin Dasha, you're still so arrogant, huh?" Cao Yan's patience had reached its limit. The DNA test report in the bag was like a time bomb to her, and once it exploded, it would shatter the wealthy and comfortable life she and her son Qin Sheng had built, so she had to get it back immediately.
Cao Yan stopped arguing with Qin Lang and wanted to walk towards him to retrieve the report. However, as soon as she moved, the pain in her knee made her leg weak, almost causing her to fall again. Fortunately, Zhu Ganglie reacted quickly this time and supported her.
"Yanyan, don't get excited, I'll take care of this fool." Zhu Ganglie supported Cao Yan to steady herself, then stormed towards Qin Lang with a fierce momentum.
Qin Lang knew that with his current physical ability, he couldn't withstand the entanglement of this couple. If they clashed head-on, he would definitely end up losing.
But he had already seen that the two of them were extremely wary of what was in his bag, so he thought for a moment and then shouted loudly: "You stand still. If you dare to take another step closer, believe it or not, I'll immediately show you what's in my bag. It just so happens that I'm also very curious, what treasure is inside this bag that makes you two so anxious."
Cao Yan heard this and, enduring the pain in her knee, hastily grabbed Zhu Ganglie and said, "Don't go over there."
Zhu Gang was furious, trying to shake off Cao Yan's hand while coldly snorting: "Yan Yan, what are you afraid of? I don't believe this fool can still turn the tables. Now I not only want this bag but also want to teach him a good lesson and vent my anger for Sheng Er, let go quickly."
Cao Yan however said nothing and refused to let go, tightly grabbing Zhu Ganglie's arm and saying: "What are you doing? Are you really trying to get me and Sheng'er killed?"
Zhu Ganglie was stunned, looking at Cao Yan in surprise, "What do you mean? How did I harm you?"
Cao Yan glared at him fiercely, but didn't dare to explain, fearing that if she said too much, this big fool Qin would pick up on something. She knew that although Qin's IQ was not high, he wasn't completely stupid either, and if he were to catch wind of some truth or falsehood, things would become uncontrollable.
It's okay, Zhu Ganglie's reaction wasn't too slow either. After being stared at by Cao Yan, he also came to his senses. The DNA identification report in that idiot's bag was not only important in itself, but it couldn't even be let others see, especially not that idiot. Once seen, even if the report was taken back, it would be useless.
After all, Zhu Ganglie can do DNA identification, and Qin Fengyang can also do it. As long as this fool leaks the news to his father, Qin Fengyang can take Qin Sheng's DNA sample at any time to identify him. It will soon be revealed that there is no real father-son relationship between the two.
Zhu Ganglie stopped moving, he gave Qin Lang a vicious look, and then lowered his voice to Cao Yan: "You don't have to worry, if that fool dares to rummage through the package, I'll make him become a complete idiot from now on, unable to do anything except eat, drink, urinate and defecate."
Cao Yan's heart skipped a beat, although Zhu Ganglie's words were harsh, but if things really came to that point, she believed that even if it was her, she would take the same approach. After all, compared to her and Qin Sheng's future life together, the life or death of an idiot was not important at all.
Thinking of this, Cao Yan's heart settled a little, and when she looked at Qin Lang again, her eyes involuntarily carried a thread of faint malice.
These two people's eyes are quite strange!
Qin Lang immediately became vigilant. He had killed many people on the Dan Ding continent and had also been pursued by many people, so he was particularly sensitive to murderous intent.
Cao Yan and the man looked at him with a gaze that made him feel a vicious murderous intent, he had reason to believe that this couple had thoughts of killing him. But in doing so, Qin Lang couldn't help but feel curious, what kind of thing could make this couple have thoughts of killing him?
It's not that simple! It seems that thing is even more complicated than I thought! Qin Lang muttered to himself, he had just used the things in his bag to threaten them, besides stopping the couple from taking it by force, he also wanted to see their reaction. But now, the reaction they gave him made him regret it a bit.
He regretted it, not because he was afraid that the two of them had a mind to kill him. It's just that he has realized that the things in the bag are probably a big handle. So he regretted letting go of the pickpocket who robbed him so easily before. If he could get back what the thief took from him, he would now truly grasp this big handle, rather than an empty and useless package.
"Qin Dasha, huh? Your stepmother Gu Nian is considerate of your feelings and doesn't want to embarrass you, but I'm not the same. Alright, I'll give you three more seconds, if you still don't return my bag, believe it or not, I'll call the police and say you robbed me!" Since he couldn't get it back by force, Zhu Ganglie resorted to intimidation.
Cao Yan apparently also understood Zhu Ganglie's intention, thinking that this fool was usually timid and cowardly, and as soon as he mentioned calling the police, he would definitely be afraid, so he pretended to cooperate: "Forget it, forget it, it's just a small matter, no need to call the police, just give me some face, let him return the bag and that's it."
"Call for help?" Qin Lang sneered with a smile, "You go ahead and call."
"You think I don't dare?" Zhu Ganglie was enraged by Qin Lang's disdainful smile, and he really took out his phone and started dialing the number. "I'll show you."
"How can you be so stubborn? If you're really caught by the police and leave a record, do you still want to take the college entrance exam?" Cao Yan advised from the side.
Qin Lang smiled faintly and took out his phone, muttering to himself: "It's been a long time since I last called Dad, might as well give him a call and have a chat."
Cao Yan's face changed as soon as she heard this.
She is now most afraid that Qin Fengyang will be dragged into this, Qin Lang may be foolish but Qin Fengyang is not. Once he senses some clues, it's likely that he'll investigate and uncover some things.
"Don't..." Cao Yan hastily tried to stop him, but Qin Lang had already dialed the phone.
The phone was soon answered, and Qin Lang laughed and shouted: "Dad, are you busy?"
Cao Yan was anxious and wished she could snatch Qin Lang's phone away. But she didn't dare to do so, fearing that Qin Fengyang on the other end of the line would become even more suspicious. She knew that Qin Fengyang cared about this foolish son more than Qin Sheng. More importantly, the crucial package was still in this fool's hands, and if he were really enraged, he might open it and inform Qin Fengyang through the phone, which would be her downfall.
In a moment of urgency, she snatched the phone from Zhu Ganglie who was about to call for help, and anxiously watched Qin Lang's conversation, constantly making hand gestures, fearing that Qin Lang would say something unpleasant.
Qin Lang casually chatted for a few sentences before saying: "Dad, I still have something to take care of right now. If I have time later, I'll give you another call."
He hung up after finishing speaking.
Cao Yan finally let out a sigh of relief, after Qin Lang's scare, she no longer dared to underestimate this fool. She even had a strange feeling that the fool's brain seemed to have become more clever and was not as easy to deal with as before.
"Huh, have you finished reporting?" Qin Lang looked at Zhu Ganglie with a hint of a smile.
Zhu Ganglie's eyes widened, wanting to speak, but was stopped by Cao Yan. Cao Yan piled up a smile on her face and said: "Xiao Lang, reporting the police is just a joke. Listen to Auntie's words, return the bag to Auntie. The things inside are very important to Auntie, if you casually flip through them, Auntie will get angry."
This won't work, so you're resorting to this? Qin Lang found it amusing. Except when his old man was around, this woman had never shown him such a face before. It seemed that in order to get the bag back and prevent him from looking at what's inside, she was willing to humble herself!
Suddenly, Qin Lang's mind moved and he felt this was a good opportunity. Anyway, the package in his hand was empty, and he couldn't play many tricks with it. If he dragged on for too long, the patience of the couple would be exhausted, and if they came to an end, he would be at a disadvantage. It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to tease this woman well, to avenge that stupid Qin Da for the past, and also to make this empty package useful.
Thinking of this, Qin Lang shook his head and said: "Since you've said so much, it's only right that I return the bag to its owner."
Cao Yan's expression changed to delight, thinking that her soft approach had taken effect. She hastily said: "That's right, Little Lang has always been a good student, Auntie knows you wouldn't take something without returning it. Besides, you don't need this bag anyway, giving it back to Uncle is doing a good deed. If you really like the bag, Auntie will buy one for you, as many as you want."
Qin Lang shook his head: "I'd like to pay back, but I was just scared by his move of calling the police, what can calm me down?"
Cao Yan immediately started scolding Zhu Ganglie without saying a word, and after a while, she had scolded him until his face was red and his ears were burning. However, Qin Lang listened with a smile on his face.
"Xiao Lang, I've already scolded that uncle severely. Are you satisfied now?" Cao Yan asked with a conciliatory smile.
Qin Lang shook his head, "It's not enough, I've been called an idiot all along and it doesn't feel good. Why don't you scold that cheap brother of mine, Qin Sheng?"
Cao Yan's face turned ugly, letting her scold her own son, she really couldn't bear to say it.
But seeing Qin Lang's attitude, she knew that if she didn't scold Qin Sheng today, it would be hard to coax this fool into returning the bag on his own initiative. So she gritted her teeth and started scolding him. In her heart, however, she was thinking, just wait until I get my bag back, and see how I'll deal with you, you fool.
Of course, in comparison, she scolded Qin Sheng much more gently than when she just scolded Zhu Gang.
"Hmm, scolding is good." Qin Lang nodded.
Cao Yan suppressed the fire in her heart and smiled: "Xiao Lang, are you satisfied now? If not, next time you meet Qin Sheng, teach him a lesson. This kid is getting more and more disobedient, as his older brother, you should teach him how to be a person."
"Oh, since you've spoken up, I'll make an exception and teach you a lesson from now on." Qin Lang nodded with a suppressed smile.
"What about this package..." Cao Yan pointed expectantly at the package in Qin Lang's hand.
Qin Lang shook his head again.
"Cao Yan was about to lose her temper, feeling like she had been played by this fool, and her face suddenly turned dark."
Qin Lang saw this and said lightly: "The reward can be returned, but doing good deeds, there should be some reward, right?"
"What reward do you want?" Cao Yan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and pulled out her wallet, saying: "Here, Auntie will give you money, consider it a reward for your bravery."
"Is it just this much money?" Qin Lang shook his head.
Cao Yan took out all the cash from her wallet and waved it at Qin Lang, saying: "There's a total of 10,000 yuan here, which is equivalent to your living expenses for a month. How about it? Is Auntie's reward generous enough?"
Zhu Ganglie, who was standing beside her, saw the thick stack of 100-yuan bills in Cao Yan's hand and his eyes lit up instantly, revealing a clear glint of greed.
Qin Lang was not moved at all, as if he had just thought of something, and said: "Right, I just saw two things in that Lianqiao International Building, but the money is not enough. If you can help me buy those two things, I will return this bag to you."
Cao Yan listened and didn't hesitate at all. In her opinion, if the current trouble could be solved with money, it was the cheapest thing to do. She nodded: "Okay, Auntie will go with you to buy it now, but you have to promise Auntie that once we've bought it, you can't change your mind again."
"Don't worry, it will absolutely not change." Qin Lang nodded and said.
As soon as Zhu Ganglie saw the two of them discussing, a hint of extreme intention flashed in his eyes. He muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "Damn it, this woman is indeed very rich, but spending it on this fool is really a waste. However, if I can get my hands on this woman, hehe..."
