Brother Xiong took another big gulp of wine. "What else could it be? A perfectly good factory, and they just do this to it..."

His tone was full of resentment and helplessness.

"What are you planning to do next?" Ye Feng asked.

Brother Bear shook his head, his eyes filled with confusion.

"I don't know yet. I'll talk to some friends tomorrow and see what to do. The factory was doing so well, and now it's all gone like this..."

Ye Feng stubbed out his cigarette. "Brother, have you ever considered that perhaps someone is deliberately trying to ruin the factory?"

Brother Xiong was stunned and looked up at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng continued, "Think about it, several factories around here have recently gone bankrupt and been demolished. I've heard rumors that they're going to acquire the land, turning industrial land into commercial land, which will generate huge profits."

Brother Xiong's expression gradually turned serious. "Is the factory being targeted?"

He wasn't stupid; he understood instantly after Ye Feng's simple remark.

Ye Feng nodded. "Very likely. If the factory goes bankrupt, long-term employees like you will receive a lot of compensation based on their seniority. But if you leave early, you won't get a single penny."

Brother Xiong suddenly realized what was going on and slammed his hand on the table. "So that's it! The workshop foreman told me a couple of days ago that he wanted me to resign and he'd give me three months' salary. So that's what he was up to! He was trying to scam me!"

He felt a chill of fear; thankfully, he had talked to Ye Feng today, otherwise he would have fallen into their trap.

"Brother, this matter is fraught with complexities and involves very complicated interests," Ye Feng warned. "You must be very careful."

Brother Xiong nodded emphatically, "Don't worry, Xiao Feng, I've got it. No matter what agreement the factory makes me sign, I won't sign it!"

Ye Feng patted him on the shoulder, but felt even more worried.

The next morning, at the dinner table, Sister-in-law Xiong keenly noticed her husband's unusual behavior.

His face was gloomy, and he had no appetite.

"Old Xiong, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Sister Xiong asked with concern.

"It's nothing, I was just tired from working overtime last night, so I had a few drinks with Xiaofeng on the rooftop." Brother Xiong forced a smile.

Sister-in-law Xiong looked at him suspiciously, then at Ye Feng, but ultimately didn't ask any further questions.

After breakfast, Ye Feng said to Brother Xiong, "Brother, I'll go to work with you today."

Brother Xiong shook his head, declining Ye Feng's offer.

"No need, Xiaofeng, I can handle it myself."

At the same time, Liu Qingyi was also preparing to send Xiaotian to school.

After everyone left, Ye Feng looked at the empty house and felt depressed.

He picked up his phone and dialed Chen Yiyi's number.

"Hey, Yiyi, are you free at noon? I'd like to ask you for a favor."

A cheerful laugh came from the other end of the phone. "Oh, what a rare guest! You actually asked me for help? So, what's up? Let me make it clear first, my appearance fee is very high."

"No problem, lunch is on me. Order whatever you want." Ye Feng smiled.

"That's more like it. See you at the usual place at noon."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Feng went to the living room, where Xiong's mother was sitting on the sofa watching TV.

He poured a cup of tea for the mother bear and sat down beside her.

Mother Bear took the teacup and glanced at him. "Aren't you going to work today? What's going on at home?"

Ye Feng hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell Xiong's mother what happened last night.

"Mom, there's something I'd like to ask you for help with."

He recounted the events of the previous night involving Yu Xiaoshu and Li Tingting in detail.

Upon hearing this, Mother Bear's face darkened, and she glared at Ye Feng, "You brat, don't you dare cause any trouble! If you dare to wrong Qingyi, I won't let you get away with it!"

Ye Feng quickly raised his hands in surrender, "Don't worry, this has nothing to do with me. It's Xiao Shu who has taken a liking to Li Tingting."

Ye Feng knew Xiong Mu's temper; she had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. As long as he explained things clearly, she would definitely help him.

The mother bear's expression softened a bit. "Oh, I see. Okay, I'll take care of it."

Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief; his brother's important matter was finally settled.

He secretly rejoiced that he had the help of the bear mother; otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do.

But what the mother bear said next made his heart tighten.

“However, Li Tingting’s sister-in-law is not someone to be trifled with. She’s a snob, and she’ll definitely set her sights on that Wu Dagui guy.” Mother Xiong said, then glared at Ye Feng, “You brat, all you do is give me trouble!”

Ye Feng smiled and said, "I'll have Xiao Shu treat you to a meal later to properly thank you."

Afterwards, Ye Feng drove to a restaurant and saw Chen Yiyi sitting by the window from afar. She was wearing a burgundy long dress, with exquisite makeup, and looked charming and beautiful.

Ye Feng's heart skipped a beat. This woman was truly unpredictable.

He walked over slowly and sat down opposite her.

"Hey, Ye Feng, what brings you to dinner today? I thought you'd forgotten about me." Chen Yiyi raised an eyebrow, her tone teasing.

"No way, I've just been quite busy lately." Ye Feng smiled and waved to the waiter to order.

While ordering food, Ye Feng briefly inquired about Wu Dan's recent situation.

“The task you assigned has been completed.” Chen Yiyi swirled the wine in her glass. “Wu Dan successfully infiltrated the target company yesterday through the connections of ‘Centipede’.”

"So fast?" Ye Feng was somewhat surprised.

"Of course, don't you know who I am?" Chen Yiyi proudly raised her chin. "According to the original plan, you were supposed to interview for a security guard position the day after tomorrow, but..."

She paused, then smiled mysteriously, "The case was solved last night; you don't even need to handle it personally."

Ye Feng was slightly taken aback, but then he understood.
