When Gao Mantang received the call from his old commander, he knew for sure someone was plotting against him, but he didn't take it seriously.
Many people wanted to sabotage him, and he couldn't possibly confront them all. But he respected his old commander, so he explained the situation truthfully.
After listening, the old commander said, "I understand. If this is truly the case, go ahead and act boldly. With me here, nobody will dare touch you."
Gao Mantang was very touched and said, "Thank you, old commander. Sorry for troubling you right now."
"Don't say that damn nonsense to me, just hurry up and get busy."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Mantang felt somewhat uneasy. But he took a deep breath and turned around to go back.
Just then, a commotion started in the distant crowd, and people seemed to be quite agitated.
