Chapter 49Construction Site Boss
Nancy ‘s van. They looked aggressive, and the muscles on their arms were thicker than my thighs. If Nancy hadn’t been driving, I really wouldn’t have dared to climb into the car.
I stood at the door of the car and paused for a moment. I felt a chill on my back and almost blurted out, “Hello, brothers.”
Nancy suddenly honked the horn twice and said, “What are you doing? My brothers are all very busy. Please hurry up and get in the car!”
I climbed into the car with my body bent. After the car started, I carefully whispered in Nancy’s ear, “Who are those people in the back? Why do they look so fierce…”
Nancy drove and glanced back, saying, “They are workers in my construction team. They have all been in jail and committed crimes, such as breaking someone’s arm or leg. The one sitting in the back and looking kind once beat someone into a vegetable, but it wasn’t his fault, and he was acting in legitimate defense. These guys are the faces of my construction team. Whenever I have trouble that needs to be solved with fists, I ask them to back me up.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
After listening to Nancy ‘s introduction, I was really scared out of my wits. What did she call these people here for? Was she going to the community to beat me, Pamela ?
However, for the few old men that Pamela brought, there is no need for so many strong men to support the scene. As long as one of them shows off the muscles on his arms and head, I think they will all be scared away!
I turned back a little timidly and glanced at those big brothers. Unexpectedly, they smiled at me very friendly. My heart tightened. These smiles were too creepy. I really couldn’t stand it.
Nancy saw my fear and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I have my own plan. I told you a long time ago to leave this to me. Just trust me!”
I drove to the neighborhood where my brother lives. As soon as I arrived at the doorstep, I saw that the flower bed in the yard was turned upside down. The scattered soil was blown outside the flower bed, and the flowers and plants originally planted in the flower bed were all uprooted and piled aside.
I continued walking towards my doorstep, and to my surprise, the street lamp at the door was hung with wires, and freshly washed clothes were hanging on the wires.
I took a deep breath. Nancy next to me said, ” Pamela , you are awesome! This is the first time I have seen such a weird resident!”
I was so angry that I didn’t know what to say. I went forward to tear off the hanging clothes. Nancy held my shoulders from behind and said, “Don’t move. Go back to the car.”
“What are you going to do?” I asked.
She ignored me, turned around and waved to the big brothers on the construction site. The big brothers gathered around Nancy in an orderly manner and listened to her instructions.
Two minutes later, Nancy finished her instructions, turned around and walked to me, and said, “Is Pamela home now? Also, did you bring the things I asked you to bring?”
I hurriedly took out the spare key of this house from my trouser pocket. I had asked my mother for this key in advance. Nancy asked me to take it, so I took it.
handing the key to Nancy , I said, “I don’t know if Pamela is home.”
She said: “Call your Pamela and if she is at home, send her away.”
I listened to Nancy and called Pamela . After the call was connected, Pamela said she was at the vegetable market at the moment. I made a few casual remarks and then hung up.
Knowing that Pamela was not at home, Nancy ordered me to get back in the car, and then took the brothers to the door of the house. She inserted the key in the door with nimble hands and feet, turned it gently, and the door opened.
The moment the door opened, a middle-aged woman in her 50s suddenly walked out of the house. The woman found that the person who opened the door was not Pamela , and immediately became alert and shouted at Nancy : “Who are you! How do you have the key to this house!”
Nancy looked at the middle-aged woman seriously and said, “Who are you? Why are you in my house?”
The middle-aged woman’s face turned awkward instantly. I was sitting in the car and looking over there. It was obvious that the middle-aged woman wanted to refute. However, because the big guys behind Nancy looked so fierce, the middle-aged woman didn’t dare to say anything. She just stood at the door stubbornly and didn’t let Nancy in.
Nancy looked into the house and said calmly, “I don’t know where you old men and women came from, but I lent this house to my girlfriend. It seems a bit inappropriate for you to be here now.”
The middle-aged woman who led the fight retorted in a harsh voice, “You are talking nonsense! This house was bought by Shuqin’s son! Where did you come from, you wild girl?”
Shuqin is Pamela ‘s given name, her full name is Zhou Shuqin, and she has the same surname as Dean . Because Dean’s father died when he was very young, he took his mother’s surname.
This is also the reason why I have a crush on Dean . When I was in school, I had low self-esteem for a long time because I was an abandoned baby. Even though my parents and brother loved me very much, I still I can’t get rid of the inferiority complex that radiates from my bones.
The first time I had a crush on Dean was in a debate class in my sophomore year. At that time, I was on the opposite side and he was on the side. We were discussing a topic about single-parent murderers. The debate got so exciting that it was Dean’s first time. Revealed, he is a single child whose father is dead.
He was very excited during that debate. When he talked about his life experience, I saw sporadic tears in his eyes. And it was at that time that I developed a good impression of him. I even felt that we both It’s just as pitiful that our existence is incomplete.
Two people with similarities came together, thinking it would be a harmonious complement, but they never expected that things would turn out like this at this point.
Nancy was confronting the old people in the house at the door . Nancy did not give the old people too many opportunities to speak. Until the old people were about to call Pamela to tip off, Nancy suddenly stepped aside and motioned the brothers behind her to come in.
How could the old man possibly resist the muscular middle-aged man? In the blink of an eye, there was no one at the door.
Everyone went into the house, and then the door was closed with a clang, and all the noise disappeared.
At this moment, my heart clenched tightly, and I really didn’t know what would happen inside.
