Chapter 12 Layout Before Revenge
Longxi Central Park, once the place where Wang Dijun and his family lived, has now been reduced to ruins by the fire set by Chen Liujun. Not only was his own house destroyed, but the houses of his neighbors were also more or less affected to varying degrees.
As soon as Wang Dijun appeared at his doorstep, he was surrounded by his neighbors.
"Finally, you show your face! The fire in your house also burned down my house. You must compensate me. If it's less than a million, I won't let you off the hook!"
"Yeah, the sheets on my balcony were burned, and the anti-theft net was charred. If you don't compensate me a couple hundred thousand, this matter won't be over."
"Wang Dijun, you have the nerve to come back. Not only did that woman of yours pay for the damages, but she also insulted us. This is an insult to my dignity. You must compensate me double. I want two million!"
"If the wife doesn't take care of it, the husband will. If you don't compensate me a million, I'll jump out of your window!"
The mouths of the four women were sharper than the others, demanding a million in compensation right off the bat, as if they thought he was a pushover!
"Enough! Shut up, all of you!"
Wang Dijun roared, and the four women immediately fell silent.
With a stern face, Wang Dijun said, "The house is registered under Chen Liujun's name, she is the homeowner, so if you want compensation, go to her. Furthermore, I have evidence that proves the fire was set by Chen Liujun. I can give you her contact information right now."
The women were immediately furious and started to argue again, cursing King Emperor for being heartless.
Slap!
King Emperor took out the divorce agreement and wedding invitation, slapping them on the charred wall.
"See? Chen Liujun and I are already divorced, the losses she caused you have nothing to do with me."
"But I'm not one to shirk responsibility. They will have a wedding at the Sheraton Hotel in three days. As long as you are willing to come and make a scene, I guarantee each of you will receive at least five hundred thousand in compensation."
Five hundred thousand!
Although not as high as their sky-high demands, the women's eyes still lit up.
But they were not just foolish money-seekers, they immediately saw through King Emperor's manipulation.
"You little bastard, you're bold to not pay and still want to use us. Why don't you just die?"
"Yeah, don't think you're the only smart one. I can see right through your plan to use us to cause trouble at the wedding. I won't fall for it."
"Bottom line, pay up. Whether you pay or not, you're not leaving today!"
King Emperor coldly said, "Whether you go or not, you all know how poor I am. Even if you sue me in court, I have no money to compensate you. You figure it out yourselves!"
With that, King Emperor broke through their blockade and quickly left.
The four women watched him walk away, stomping their feet in anger, "This little bastard is cunning, what do we do next?"
" What else can we do? Let's make banners and slogans right away, and cause a scene at the Xilai Hotel in three days. Even if we can't get a million, we can at least get back tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands to make up for the losses."
After discussing it, the four women finally decided to cooperate with Wang Dijun.
As gossiping women, they knew Wang Dijun's family status too well. A person who wouldn't even buy a bottle of water normally couldn't possibly be expected to have money to compensate.
After leaving the residential area, Wang Dijun went to the Orange Language Internet Cafe next door and found Lao Bi, who was playing games, and shut down his computer with a snap.
"What the hell, who the f**k interrupted me playing games? Are you tired of living?"
Lao Bi jumped up from his chair, but when he saw that it was Wang Dijun, a smile immediately spread across his face.
"Wang... Wang ge... You're here..."
Wang Dijun had saved Lao Bi's life when he was in his prime, and even topped up his internet cafe membership card with a hundred thousand yuan. Lao Bi had been loyal to him ever since. Even though Wang Dijun had fallen from grace, Lao Bi still respected him the most.
Wang Dijun patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous, sit down first. I have something to ask you today."
Lao Bi immediately patted his chest and said, "Wang ge, just give the order. I, Lao Bi, will do it without hesitation."
He wasn't just boasting; he really would do it.
The pledge to repay a drop of water with a gushing spring was most evident in these small-time characters in the underworld.
Wang Dijun said, "It's not that serious, I just need you to look up some information."
He handed the photos of Chen Liujun and Zhou Xin to him: "Within three days, I want you to investigate all the improper activities of this couple, preferably with photos and videos. Can you do it?"
Old Bi looked at the photos and was stunned: "Brother Wang... isn't this your wife and your brother? You used to drink and hang out with him a lot."
King Emperor nodded and admitted, "We used to be brothers, but now we are rivals. He took my wife away from me and betrayed me."
Old Bi swallowed hard and cursed, "Damn it, even my brother Wang dares to betray me. I have to get rid of this couple!"
"Don't worry, Brother Wang, no matter how difficult this task is, I will help you complete it!"
He immediately called a group chat on WeChat in front of King Emperor and shouted, "Stop fooling around, gather at Orange Language Internet Cafe immediately. I'm going to lead you to do something big."
After leaving the internet cafe, King Emperor felt it was still not safe, so after much hesitation, he called Xiao Ruoxuan.
Half an hour later, they reunited at a bubble tea shop.
Xiao Ruoxuan was surprised after hearing his request, "Are you out of your mind? As the top beauty CEO in Jiangbo City, my promise is very valuable. You are using this opportunity to investigate such trivial matters? Aren't you afraid of regretting it?"
Countless people in Jiangbo City would want her help, some even willing to pay a high price for it. But King Emperor did not appreciate it at all, using such a precious opportunity to seek revenge on his ex-wife.
Emperor Wang said, "A real man knows when to act and when not to. If I endure such humiliation, I will never be able to hold my head up high in this lifetime, nor can I set a proper example and values for my daughter. I would be failing her."
"It is not the act of a gentleman to not seek revenge. Even if it costs me everything, I don't care. Will you help or not?"
Emperor Wang's words deeply shocked Xiao Ruoxuan. Emperor Wang lived with such integrity and honor. He not only wanted revenge but also wanted his daughter to understand right from wrong.
He was a good father, a true man!
Taking a deep breath, she said in a serious tone, "No problem, I can help with this favor. And this time, consider it a gift from me, not counting towards those three times."
