Pei Yuchen looked at her and said, "This is just my guess. In fact, some people have already suspected this situation, but he has connections behind him. Without complete evidence, no one would dare to offend him easily. Last time he was reported, he was only verbally reprimanded."

Song Yanzhi knew that not everyone in the family compound was upright, and that there must be some shady dealings among them.

But unexpectedly, there really was someone who could control everything.

"The person who reported him was one of those he had tricked. He only reported him after being deceived, and ended up sending himself to prison."

“My friend was the one who handled this matter, and he was also very troubled by Xu Dali’s actions.”

"So you mean Li Xiuhe knew about this, which is why she turned to your brother?"

Most women would certainly find it unacceptable for men to gamble, but since Xu Dali has been doing this for so long, he shouldn't be so open about it.

Pei Yuchen said calmly, "None of the women Xu Dali dated in the past ended up marrying him. Do you know why?"

Song Yanzhi looked at him, and Pei Yuchen continued, "The men those women married afterward were basically all in contact with Xu Dali, and they had very close private relationships. Many of them are now heavily in debt."

"The wife of the person who reported him was also one of Xu Dali's blind dates before. When he asked his wife to help verify this, she kept quiet."

"I suspect that Xu Dali has something to threaten these women, making them willingly help him cover up the truth, and even introduce their husbands to Xu Dali so that he can commit fraud. Most of these people who have been recruited come from very well-off families. Some of them are unable to leave and have no choice but to follow him, which makes his backing stronger and stronger."

Song Yanzhi felt a chill run down his spine after hearing this.

She initially thought that Li Xiuhe was in such a hurry to get married because something had happened between her and Xu Dali, perhaps she was pregnant or something.

They wanted Pei Hai to be the one to take over their losses.

Little did anyone expect that such a huge conspiracy was hidden within.

In other words, those who are recruited can only help him; those who cannot accept it are courting their own destruction.

After all, they've joined the group.

These people's identities are inherently sensitive; once they get involved and are discovered, the consequences can be dire.

No one dares to speak up; even if they've been deceived, they can only swallow their anger.

Even those who stood up couldn't do anything to Xu Dali.

Because he had no evidence.

"But you also said that the people he scams are all people with connections and status in the residential compound. But your brother has no presence in the compound and can't even support himself. What's the benefit of bringing him in?"

If Pei Yuchen had been working here before, it might have been a connection, but now that Pei Yuchen's father has been discharged from the military due to injury and Pei Yuchen has also changed jobs, he is of no use to them at all.

What exactly did he see in Pei Hai?

Could it be...?

Song Yanzhi suddenly looked at Pei Yuchen.

Pei Yuchen looked at her without saying a word.

Pei Yuchen hadn't actually told anyone about becoming a captain, and she didn't interact with others much in her daily life.

The people in the family compound had long since become estranged from them and no longer paid them any attention.

Wang Yanmei had no idea how much his salary was.

How did Xu Dali find out?

I thought the pig being slaughtered in this pig-butchering scam was Pei Hai.

Little did they expect that their real target was them!

Pei Yuchen was slightly moved when he saw how quickly she reacted. She was so smart that she must have been able to guess. There were some things that Pei Hai had told him. If she hadn't reminded Pei Hai, given his personality, he probably wouldn't have needed to be coaxed and would have fallen right into the trap.

He's always been playful by nature.

He had been suppressed for a long time, and when he saw Xu Dali talking to him today, he could see the restless desire in his eyes.

Pei Yuchen said, "In short, I intend to get involved in this matter."

Song Yanzhi was taken aback for a moment, then frowned. "You want Pei Hai to risk his life to expose him?"

Pei Yuchen said, "Xu Dali is a cancer. People like him cannot stay in the family compound. Although he has nothing to do with me now, he has made a move against us, and I cannot ignore it."

He had no feelings for the Pei family, but he couldn't just abandon his father.

Pei Hai had warned him himself, but he thought that since he wouldn't listen, he wouldn't bother with it anymore.

But now that he's discovered this matter has caused so much harm that it has ruined families, he can no longer stand idly by.

My father is now bedridden and needs medication every month.

So although the family has never lacked money over the years, they haven't saved much either.

If Pei Hai is deceived, he has no way to fill the empty pocket.

He couldn't just stand by and watch his father get into trouble; in the end, it would fall on him too.

Seeing Song Yanzhi frowning, he lowered his voice and explained, "Don't worry, I won't get involved. My friend is handling this privately, so it won't implicate us."

He knew very well that even if he brought down Xu Dali, the Xu family was too deeply entrenched to be wiped out in one fell swoop.

On the contrary, it is easy to offend people.

We can't bring this matter into the open.

The most sensible approach is to catch the enemy off guard.

Song Yanzhi didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, but she also knew that once the Pei family was involved, Pei Yuchen and she would inevitably face countless troubles in the future.

If we don't stop it now, we might miss our chance.

"I trust your abilities, and you should also let your mother know that there's no such thing as a free lunch."
