"Help me?" Jiang Yumeng asked blankly, "How do you plan to help?"
Xu Lang smiled and said, "As I said earlier, talk to him. Just wake him up."
Although Jiang Yumeng felt very puzzled, she still stood up and said, "Okay, I'll call him."
Not long after she walked in, a boy suddenly yelled angrily: "Oh, are you bothered? You asked me to get up at this hour!"
Jiang Yumeng's voice was very low, and she could only vaguely hear her saying: "There is an uncle outside looking for you..."
The boy immediately shouted: "Who is it? He must be sick. I don't even know him!"
This angered Jiang Yumeng, and she suddenly shouted loudly: "If you can't get up, if you don't get up, I will smash your game console, believe it or not?"
"You dare?" Although the boy shouted loudly, he still fainted and quickly followed his mother out.
Wearing a T-shirt and medium pants, he came to the living room without even looking at Xu Lang. He sat on the sofa and faced the window without saying a word.
Jiang Yumeng became even more angry when she saw her son being so rude: "Jiang Shaofan..."
Maybe Jiang Yumeng's ex-husband disappointed her so much that he let his son take his surname.
Xu Lang quickly stopped him: "Minister Jiang, sit down first and I'll talk to him."
Jiang Yumeng didn't know what Xu Lang wanted to talk to her son about, so she sat down and waited for him to reveal the answer.
Xu Lang looked at Jiang Shaofan, who had an indifferent expression, and unexpectedly noticed that there was a green patch on the corner of his mouth, probably from being beaten.
So he said: "Jiang Shaofan, let me ask you, have you gotten into the bad habit of gambling?"
Jiang Shaofan was stunned for a moment, but his body remained motionless. He looked out the window and said, "It's none of your business."
Jiang Yumeng wanted to curse again, but Xu Lang waved her hand to stop her, and then said: "My name is Xu Lang, Secretary General of the Municipal Government, and Qi Qiang, Director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, is a good friend of mine. I can call the police with just one phone call." If you catch me, do you believe it?"
Jiang Shaofan's expression changed, and then he turned to look at Xu Lang and said, "I don't know you at all, why should you care about my affairs?"
"Because gambling is illegal." Xu Lang said coldly: "You are over twenty years old and an adult. If you break the law, you will go to jail. Don't you understand this?"
Jiang Shaofan's eyes flashed with panic, but then he sneered: "You are just a small secretary-general. My mother is a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. Does Director Qi listen to you or my mother?"
Jiang Yumeng immediately said: "Even if Director Qi listens to me, I will ask him to arrest you and put you in jail. Don't think that I will protect you!"
Jiang Shaofan was anxious: "I am your son, you won't even want your son, right? Is there any mother who harms her son like you?"
Jiang Yumeng sneered: "I would rather not have a son like you!"
Jiang Shaofan stood up angrily and said loudly: "You said this, don't regret it!"
After saying that, he immediately strode to the door, seeing that it meant he was running away from home.
"You!" Jiang Yumeng became nervous. Just when she was about to stand up and stop him, Xu Lang said first, "If you dare to walk out of this door, I'll call Director Qi right away!"
Jiang Shaofan stopped immediately, and Xu Lang continued: "Do you know the environment in the detention center? Do you want to go in and try the sour feeling of picking up soap?"
Jiang Shaofan was shocked, then turned around and asked: "What do you want?"
Xu Lang said: "If you don't want to go to jail, take me to the casino!"
These words shocked both mother and son. Jiang Yumeng exclaimed: "Secretary-General Xu, are you going to gamble?"
"Yes." Xu Lang said, "I want your son to see what it's like for a real master to gamble."
Jiang Shaofan's face was filled with astonishment. He looked at Xu Lang and asked in disbelief: "You mean... you are a master?"
Xu Lang nodded: "Yes, if you want to know how skilled I am, take me there and I will open your eyes."
"Fuck you." Jiang Shaofan exclaimed, "You are an official, how can you gamble?"
Xu Lang did not answer such a stupid question: "Are you going or not? If you don't go, you will go to jail!"
These words confused Jiang Shaofan: "What kind of logic are you talking about? It's illegal for me to take you to gamble. Not only me, you will also go to jail. If I don't go, I will go to jail. Where can I reason?"
Xu Lang said: "That's wrong. You took me to gamble to save you. How could I go to jail? You will go to jail if you don't go. Do you understand?"
Jiang Shaofan looked at his mother and asked, "Mom, do you understand? He wants me to take him to gamble."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yumeng said: "I understand, just listen to him."
"This..." Jiang Shaofan rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll take you there. I also want to see how powerful you are."
Xu Lang asked: "Is the casino open during the day?"
"Open." Jiang Shaofan said: "Of course they can make a lot of money. They are open 24 hours a day. It's just that they manage it very strictly. Strangers can't get in."
Xu Lang asked: "Can't I get in even with an acquaintance like you?"
Jiang Shaofan thought for a moment and said in an uncertain tone: "I don't know because I haven't taken anyone there."
Xu Lang said: "Then go and give it a try. Just say that I am a rich man and I am very rich. I believe they will not refuse money from anyone."
"Okay." Jiang Shaofan looked at Xu Lang and said, "Looking at your appearance, you do look like a young man from a rich family."
Xu Lang said: "That's right, Minister Jiang, let's go."
Jiang Yumeng asked with worry on her face: "Secretary-General Xu, are you sure it's okay?"
Xu Lang said: "Don't worry, there will be no problem. I hope that through this time, I can change your son."
Jiang Yumeng was very moved: "Thank you, Secretary-General Xu, I..."
"Don't thank me yet." Xu Lang said with a smile, "I don't know if it's okay yet. I'll find out when I get back."
Jiang Yumeng said: "Then be careful, the underworld is full of ruthless people."
"I know." Xu Lang said to Jiang Shaofan, "Let's go."
When Xu Lang drove into the underground parking lot of the nightclub under Jiang Shaofan's guidance, he asked in surprise: "Is the casino down there?"
Jiang Shaofan said: "Yes, it is located underground, and you have to take the elevator down."
Xu Lang's cell phone had already called Wang Fenghua. When the two parked the car, Wang Fenghua had already rushed to the nightclub with his colleagues in plainclothes.
The lights in the parking lot were not bright enough, so Xu Lang followed Jiang Shaofan to the small house in front.
When he came to the iron gate, the surroundings were a little dark, but Xu Lang still saw the camera on the door.
Jiang Shaofan didn't knock on the door, but pressed the button on the iron door, then looked up at the camera above.
After a few seconds, the iron door finally opened. Inside was a small light bulb with insufficient light.
