Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Chapter 248 Sleepless Night

It was already late at night when Ning Yuan and Meng Qing returned to Xiebian Hutong.

The weather was hot and humid, and each of these brothers had something on their mind, so naturally they couldn't sleep well.

Some of them tossed and turned in the house, looking at the guns in their hands, thinking about how they had been pointed at guns on their heads, had their bicycles stolen, and were severely beaten in the afternoon, and they couldn't get rid of their murderous intent!

The young men who were not given guns also had their heartbeats quickened by the adrenaline.

They were also angry about what happened to their brothers. After knowing that they were going to make a big profit tomorrow, the restless emotions that had been suppressed for almost half a year were released all at once!

Zhong Yuemin, Zheng Tong, Fatty Fan and Zou Cheng, each holding a bottle of beer, sat under the awning in the yard. They didn't talk to each other, just drank it sip by sip, and no one knew what they were thinking about.

After Ning Yuan brought Meng Qing in from outside, several people hurriedly stood up and looked at Ning Yuan and Meng Qing.

"Guys, it's so late, what are you waiting for? We have to get up early tomorrow morning to do some work!"

Ning Yuan looked at their expressions and teased them in a nonchalant manner.

"Damn it, I can't sleep. Thinking about what happened this afternoon, I'm so frustrated I'm about to explode!"

Fatty Fan replied to Ning Yuan.

"Look at how little you've accomplished! It's just such a trivial matter! Let's take a break and then go and deal with them. Why are you so upset?"

Ning Yuan patted the fat man's shoulder and spoke in a relaxed tone.

Zhong Yuemin came over and looked at Ning Yuan. The anger on his face that he had when he heard about this in the afternoon was gone.

"Ningyuan, what do you think? When we find the courtyard where the Second Factory is currently staying, should we just attack them directly?"

Zhong Yuemin calmed down and felt that the consequences of this matter were a bit too great. At this moment, he asked Ning Yuan with some uneasiness.

"Yuemin! That's not good! This afternoon you were pointing your finger at me and calling me a coward! What's the matter? Are you scared now?"

After hearing what Zhong Yuemin said, Ning Yuan immediately lost the mood to tease him and started scolding him directly.

"Anyone who's a coward is a bastard. Man, I just want to ask, should we really just go on a killing spree against those guys because our bikes were stolen? You and I both know that once we start, we can't stop!"

After refuting a few words, Zhong Yuemin said worriedly.

Ning Yuan looked at Zhong Yuemin and shook his head sternly. He knew too well the behavior of those bastards from the Second Factory: they were ostentatious, domineering, and didn't take human lives seriously!

"I'm telling you, Zhong Yuemin! When we get there at dawn, we'll start killing! Whoever dares to shake the morale of the army, I'll kill him myself!"

Ning Yuan knew that the group of people had just started to show off their strength and were currently only domineering and overbearing. If they were given a few months, they would grow up through various struggles.

That's what's really difficult to deal with.

This time, we are going to kill them by surprise.

Just rush in and defeat them in one go, and never give them any chance to fight back.

After breaking in, they have to leave within half an hour. No matter how many people are left, they must go straight to the train station without hesitation.

It is even very likely that their action may trigger a chain reaction among all parties.

At that time, the situation was in complete chaos, and who could care about Ning Yuan and his group anymore!

It was also the first time that Zhong Yuemin saw Ning Yuan being so serious with him.

He immediately shook his head and came to his senses.

"I understand Ning Yuan. I've already informed everyone of your plan. Don't worry, we brothers, no one will be cowardly and hold us back!"

Ning Yuan stared at Zhong Yuemin, and nodded after hearing what he said.

Meng Qing was behind Ning Yuan and was stunned when she heard what they said.

Even though she didn't know Ning Yuan's specific plan, the information revealed in these few words was enough to shock her.

It's ridiculous. Just now in that abandoned stone factory, he actually said that he didn't dare to kill anyone.

It turns out that it’s not that they don’t dare, but that they simply don’t bother to deal with those two unknown people.

Ning Yuan didn't have time to care about Meng Qing's thoughts. After looking around the yard, he asked Zhong Yuemin.

"Also, have you guys packed your things? We're leaving early tomorrow morning. Take everything with you. After we finish our business at the Second Factory, grab your stuff and leave!"

Fatty Fan interrupted and responded at this time.

"Don't worry, we had almost packed everything when you went out this afternoon!"

Ning Yuan nodded. That was right. Most of their supplies had already been moved to southern Shaanxi in advance through Yuan Jun’s father’s connections.

All they had left were some clothes and personal belongings.

"That's good. It's half past ten now. Go to each room and tell the brothers to take advantage of the time to rest. Get up at three-thirty in the morning! Half an hour to fight, half an hour to do the work, and another half an hour to get to the train station!"

Ning Yuan and his group happened to be catching an early morning train, so as long as nothing went wrong, they could perform to their full potential!

Zhong Yuemin and the others nodded, and then went to the houses in the front and back yards.

Ning Yuan took Meng Qing into the main room.

The north house has three rooms. In addition to a living room, there is a room on each side.

Little Ning Wei had already fallen asleep in the east room, so Ning Yuan could only arrange Meng Qing to move to the west room.

"You just take a nap here tonight. At five in the morning, take my brother and meet us at the train station!"

After Ning Yuan helped Meng Qing carry her things into the house, he gave her some instructions.

"Don't worry, I will bring your brother there safely and on time!"

Meng Qing knew that Ning Yuan and the others were going to do something big, so naturally she didn't care about the trivial topic of men and women living in the same room.

Ning Yuan nodded and was about to leave the house.

Meng Qing called out again from behind him.

"Hey!"

Ning Yuan turned around and looked at Meng Qing.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"No, nothing, I just want to tell you to be careful!"

Ning Yuan smiled after hearing this, and didn't say anything. He nodded and walked out the door directly, crossed the hall, walked into the east room where Xiao Ningwei was sleeping, and lay down!

The night is getting deeper!

Almost all the guys in the rooms in the front and back yards were tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.

Some of them were chatting quietly with their friends around them.

Some just kept their eyes open, staring at the roof, not knowing what they were thinking.

There are also those who are careless and snore like thunder.

More often than not, they would stroke the guns or cold blades in their hands over and over again!
