Rural Rough Guy Dotes on Her to the Heavens, Delicate Educated Youth Gives Birth to Triplets

After the apocalypse boss Ye Weiwei's soul transmigrated, she became a love-brained supporting character with the same name in a book. The original Ye Weiwei was schemed against by her cousin, ...

Chapter 525 The Scam

"Qin Yunshu, you promised me that as long as I took you on the train, you would listen to everything I said. Besides, your mother also said that I should keep an eye on you two siblings! A person should keep their word. Do you want to break your promise and grow into a fatso?"

Qin Yunshu certainly didn't want to become a big fat person!

So when Chen Mengyi came over, she saw Qin Yunshu looking utterly hopeless as Ye Huaiyu dressed her up.

"Weiwei, I've found out that the exchange meeting will start in two days, and the location is near this hotel, about a half-hour walk away."

Ye Weiwei nodded to indicate that she understood, then pointed to a bag on the ground and said, "Here, try it in your room."

Chen Mengyi's eyes lit up: "I have one too?! I prepared an outfit when I came."

Knowing that they were here to discuss business, Chen Mengyi naturally made preparations. After all, one should show respect for clothing before respecting the person. Appropriate attire is not only a sign of status and dignity, but also a way of showing respect to the other party.

Therefore, while she was in Kyoto, she had already gone to Master Liu and spent a lot of money to have a set of clothes made according to her design.

"Everyone gets a share."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mengyi smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll thank you in advance!"

After saying that, she took the remaining three bags from the ground. "I'll take them to Brother Huo and Second Brother Huo so they can try them on too."

When it was time for dinner that evening, Huo Hai and Huo Jiang both wore new outfits. Although their expressions were still somewhat reserved, it has to be said that clothes make the man and the Buddha is made of gold. The clothes that Ye Weiwei prepared for them made them look much more elegant. If they were a little more confident, they would look even better.

However, these still require more time to cultivate and refine, and I believe that before long, that slight sense of incongruity will disappear.

"Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."

Seeing that Ye Weiwei and the others were also dressed in new clothes, especially her nephew and niece who were dressed like little fairies, Huo Hai took a deep breath and tried to appear as natural as possible before thanking them.

Ye Weiwei smiled and said, "No need to be polite. These are work clothes for you. You'll need them when you go out to discuss work in the future."

Upon hearing that it was work attire, Huo Jiang swallowed the words he was about to say.

He wanted to say that there was no need to dress the two roughnecks in such fine materials, but as for work clothes, he couldn't say anything.

I'll have to work hard from now on, otherwise I'll be letting down those clothes.

After finishing their meal, Ye Weiwei led the group out.

Chen Mengyi had already rented two cars, and Ye Weiwei wanted to take them out for a drive tonight to see the local nightlife.

Of course, she specifically asked the driver to take them around to a few small hotels and guesthouses.

It was just a coincidence.

Right at the entrance of the guesthouse, I saw a man sitting there, sobbing uncontrollably.

He asked around and learned that the man was on a business trip and had been followed while staying at a guesthouse. The person waited for him to leave the guesthouse and then snatched his bag. He chased after the person for a long time but couldn't catch him, and even after calling the police, they couldn't catch him. Now he's penniless and can't even afford to stay at the guesthouse anymore. He wanted to seek redress from the guesthouse, but they completely ignored him and wouldn't even let him in. Helpless, he could only cry and vent his frustration, not knowing what else to do.

Huo Hai and Huo Jiang were shocked that such a thing could happen while staying at a guesthouse, and they felt a chill run down their spines.

Seeing the man crying so pitifully, they couldn't help but feel sorry for him. Fortunately, neither of them were the type to make their own decisions, and they knew to consult Ye Weiwei before doing anything.

Huo Hai whispered to Ye Weiwei, "Third sister-in-law, that man looks quite pitiful. Why don't we help him out and give him some money to help him out, so that he can at least have a place to stay tonight?"

Huo Jiang clearly agreed, looking at Ye Weiwei with a questioning gaze.

Ye Weiwei smiled and said, "Big brother, second brother, let's not rush, let's take another look."

Huo Hai and Huo Jiang didn't understand. They didn't know what Ye Weiwei meant by asking them to take another look. What was there to see?

Ye Weiwei saw through their thoughts at a glance and said with a smile, "I know you are kind-hearted and charitable, which is not a bad thing, but first you need to figure out whether you are helping a human or a ghost, right?"

The driver in front, who overheard their conversation, smiled and said, "This lady is right. You two should figure out what's going on before deciding whether you need help."

Huo Hai's eyes widened in surprise: "Could it be...could it be that he's a fraud?"

Compared to the poor man who had his money stolen and nowhere to go, he naturally believed his third sister-in-law's words more. Now that even the driver was saying the same thing, it was clear that the person who lost his money was very suspicious.

Huo Jiang was also shocked. Although he wasn't good with words, he wasn't truly stupid. After listening to Ye Weiwei and the driver's conversation, he understood that the man wasn't a good person. He couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected it to be like this! I saw him crying so pitifully, I thought it was real..."

When the driver started talking to her, Ye Weiwei smiled and handed him a pack of cigarettes. "Comrade, you look like you've seen a lot. We're new here and don't know anyone. Could you please tell us about your place?"

When the driver saw that Ye Weiwei had given him good cigarettes, he was delighted and accepted them with a smile, saying, "Alright, I'll tell you what I know, but you'll have to decide for yourselves what to do."

The driver was a retired soldier, a fact that Ye Weiwei had told Chen Mengyi when she rented the car. Chen Mengyi naturally knew this, and it was also easy to tell from some of his habits and characteristics.

After he was discharged from the army, he returned to his hometown. Because he had learned to drive in the army, he found a job as a driver and often picked up passengers at the entrance of hotels.

Because of his good reputation and his military service, many people sought him out.

Having driven for so long and frequently visiting high-end consumer venues, he has naturally seen quite a lot.

This is a common scam, like the one that happened at the entrance of the guesthouse today.

These people are all involved in organized crime.

Some people were responsible for scouting the location, others for relaying messages, some for keeping watch, and then they would take action. After the crime was successful, they would split the loot together.

As for whether someone actually lost money, that's definitely true, but what happened at the entrance today is obviously fake, and those cheering and supporting them in the crowd all have their accomplices.

“If you really go and help them out of kindness, they will quickly keep an eye on you, and you won’t have a peaceful time here.”

Unless you stay in the hotel the whole time, these people absolutely cannot get into the hotel you're staying in; you can rest assured about that.

Huo Hai couldn't help but ask, "What about the guesthouse? Do they have spies there too?"

The driver smiled but didn't say anything.

This is tantamount to tacit agreement.

This isn't the first or second time this has happened; no one would believe that there weren't their eyes and ears in the guesthouse.

But this guesthouse was state-run, and he dared not say anything that might cause trouble.
