Chapter 58: It was his own greed that caused it.



"Before we could even discuss it, she said she would come to find me."

"Alright! Just ask her one question: 'How did she manage to escape?'"

Then, He Zhong revealed his plan.

"Even if Miss Lu runs away with you, how much money can she take with her? As long as you can accomplish this, you don't have to pay back the money. I'll give you another 50 million. With 50 million, you can live a decent and wealthy life in any city."

Cao Yunbo was intrigued and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it easy to steal?"

"Hmm~~"

Yu Dayong uttered a muffled reply, and Cao Yunbo quickly agreed. Yes, fifty million is more money than an average person could earn in a lifetime. Having fifty million is better than running away with that foolish woman, Gan Tang.

"Here, take these flowers!" He Zhong tossed a card in front of Cao Yunbo, Yu Dayong stuffed the card into his pocket, and had someone carry him out.

As the villa gate closed, Yu Dayong asked incredulously, "Fourth Master, how could Miss have eloped with him?"

As long as Cao Yunbo is used as a shield, the marriage will definitely fall through. This is a gift they gave to the young lady; he doesn't believe Lu Xintang would abandon such a good plan and risk running away.

"It seems this young lady really likes Cao Yunbo. She'd rather run away than let Cao Yunbo die." He Zhong believed it without a doubt and laughed with a look of disgust: "They really are father and daughter. They were both love-struck when they were young."

Yu Dayong wasn't optimistic about the plan and asked, "But can the young lady really steal it?"

"It would be best if we could steal it," but He Zhong didn't have much hope. He laughed and said, "Even if we can't steal it, it would be good if it could create a rift between the father and daughter."

...

That night, Cao Yunbo was abandoned in a grove of trees by the roadside. He freed himself from the loose rope and reached for his bank card in his pocket. The wealth within reach made his blood boil.

Cao Yunbo tore open the black cloth bag and ran to the nearest self-service bank to check the balance on his card.

One million, a full one million.

He hurriedly transferred the money from his card to his own. Seeing the balance displayed on his phone, he excitedly walked towards his apartment, muttering to himself.

If we just let that silly woman Gan Tang steal something, we'll have fifty million in our hands.

Isn't it easy for a daughter to steal from her father?

Cao Yunbo became more and more excited as he thought about it, as if 50 million yuan in cash was floating in front of him. Suddenly, the cash in the sky turned into a fierce and evil face.

What are you doing?

Here, Cao Yunbo was only fifty meters away from the entrance of the Vientiane Apartment, but he didn't dare to rush over and ran back in fright.

Mo Huaixing took a few quick steps, grabbed him by the neck, and dragged him into a small grove of trees by the roadside. The grove was beautifully landscaped and had artificial rockery decorations.

Mo Huaixing pushed Cao Yunbo behind the artificial hill and tightly gripped his neck.

"Stay away from the young lady!"

With money in hand, Cao Yunbo was brimming with confidence: "Who do you think you are, a mere bodyguard, to dare to interfere in my affairs?"

With a bang, Mo Huaixing punched him to the ground and kicked him repeatedly.

Cao Yunbo tried to get up and run away, but Mo Huaixing knelt on his chest with his right leg, half-squatting down, and said fiercely, "Do you still dare to go to the young lady?"

"I won't do it again, I won't do it again."

"You really won't dare?"

Mo Huaixing pressed the dagger against his face repeatedly.

"I really won't do it again, I really won't do it again!"

How could Mo Huaixing believe that? Even if he didn't dare, He Zhong wouldn't let him not dare.

With a hiss, the dagger pierced Cao Yunbo's thigh, and blood splattered all over Mo Huaixing's right side, including his face, making him look ferocious and terrifying.

Cao Yunbo convulsed in pain and tried to cry for help, but Mo Huaixing covered his mouth tightly.

Gradually, as Cao Yunbo regained his senses from the pain, Mo Huaixing pressed the dagger against Cao Yunbo's face again. This time, the sharp blade was stained with blood.

Fear finally appeared in Cao Yunbo's eyes: "What do you want me to do?"

"roll!"

Mo Huaixing shoved a bank card into Cao Yunbo's mouth and warned, "This is one million. Take the money and get as far away from me as possible."

He could guess that He Zhong was controlling him, and the simplest way He Zhong could control him was through debt. Although Mo Huaixing didn't know if this million yuan would solve his problem, it was all he had.

"If I can't find your transportation information to leave this city by tomorrow, I'll take both your legs off."

"I'm leaving, I'm leaving..." Cao Yunbo convulsed in pain.

Mo Huaixing got up and left.

In an apartment in the Vientiane Apartments, Ali put down his binoculars and coldly ordered the woman beside him, "Go!"

"yes!"

Lü Jiao was wearing a sexy camisole nightgown; she was supposed to have a chance encounter with Cao Yunbo in the apartment complex, the hallway, or the elevator. Unexpectedly, this unexpected turn of events occurred.

Ali walked out of the apartment complex and saw Lü Jiao help Cao Yunbo upstairs before heading to the Lu Group.

Although the Lu Group has employee dormitories where members of the Green Dragon Gang live, making it very safe, Lu Zhengqian usually rests on the top floor of the Lu Group building.

The top floor and the floors below are not connected. Living here gives him a sense of security and a feeling of looking down on the world.

Ali went in and reported, "Mr. Fu, everything has been arranged."

Less than half an hour after the incident at the restaurant, Lu Zhengqian received the news. He quickly investigated Cao Yunbo's background and learned that he was a pawn used by He Zhong to prevent the marriage alliance between the Lu and Chu families. However, after the failure at the restaurant, he didn't know how He Zhong would use this pawn next, so he placed Lü Jiao next to Cao Yunbo.

As for why Lü Jiao was chosen, it's because having one's boyfriend sleep with the woman one hates the most can amplify one's anger, thus making one hate that man even more.

"According to Lü Jiao, the eldest young lady's plan wasn't stolen by her; she got it by sleeping with Cao Yunbo. So it was easy for Lü Jiao to seduce him. But it might not be so easy to get the things that Fourth Master ordered him to do."

"No rush! The fish have already taken the bait." Lu Zhengqian thought of He Zhong, his face full of helplessness. "What a short-sighted fellow, ignoring the interests of the entire Lu Group for his own little corner. Once the Lu Group does well, do you think I'll mistreat him?"

Ali said bitterly, "You have been so kind to Fourth Master, it's just that he is too greedy."

"Sigh!" Lu Zhengqian leaned back on the sofa weakly and waved for Ali to leave.

Ali looked at Lu Zhengqian and said solemnly, "Mr. Fu, there's another strange thing. Mo Huaixing appeared at the entrance of Wanxiang Apartment today and beat up Cao Yunbo. I was too far away to hear their conversation, but they clearly knew each other. Mo Huaixing used a knife; I've never seen him use such a vicious attack before."

"Yeah?"

As more and more evidence arrived today, Lu Zhengqian, who had maintained a cold expression throughout, surprisingly smiled upon hearing this news. He turned on the projector on the wall and raised his hand, saying, "Take a look."
