"I know!" Cao Yunbo took the briefcase, too lazy to say another word to Gan Tang, and turned to leave.
"Yunbo!" Gan Tang called out to Cao Yunbo, reminding him, "You forgot something!"
To escape Lu Zhengqian's control, her old phone stopped working. The two agreed to meet here; she would give him the evidence, and he would buy her a new phone.
"I forgot, you can buy one yourself!" Cao Yunbo didn't even turn his head, and took a taxi to the place where he had arranged to meet Yu Dayong.
"Brother Yu, I got the stuff." Cao Yunbo sent out the message.
Not long after, a message came from the other end.
Yu: Are you sure?
Cao: Confirmed.
Incidentally, Cao Yunbo took a picture and sent it over.
A while later, Yu Dayong sent a message.
See you in half an hour.
Cao: Okay.
Halfway through the taxi ride, Cao Yunbo looked at the glittering briefcase and his greed began to spread: If he could divide the contents into two parts, wouldn't he be able to get a hundred million?
"parking!"
Cao Yunbo hid the briefcase in the public restroom. At that moment, he suddenly regretted not buying Gan Tang a cell phone and could only risk dialing her old cell phone.
The call was disconnected, followed by a message from Gan Tang: What's wrong?
Because her phone was being monitored, she had never contacted Cao Yunbo by phone before.
Cao Yunbo hurriedly sent a message: Tangtang, what's the password?
Gan: I can't give you the password.
Cao: Why? Do you think I'm with you just for your money? Why are you so wary of me?
In desperation, he spoke his mind.
sweet:? ? ?
Gan: Yunbo, take care of yourself. I'll contact you after I get off the plane.
After sending the message, Gantang immediately muted her phone.
Cao Yunbo angrily smashed the combination lock suitcase. But how could a specially made combination lock suitcase be opened so easily? So he got into a taxi and searched all over the city for a place that could open the combination lock suitcase.
But I couldn't find it even after searching for a long time.
An angry message came through the phone: Why haven't they arrived yet?
Cao Yunbo reluctantly gave up the other 50 million and rushed to the agreed location. The meeting place was in the suburbs, under an unfinished building overgrown with weeds.
"Brother Yu, Brother Yu..." Cao Yunbo walked inside, shining the flashlight on his phone.
"come over!"
A man emerged from the chest-high weeds; he had a square head, broad shoulders, and muscular face.
Cao Yunbo was startled and asked, "Why didn't Brother Yu come?"
"Brother Yu has something to do, let me come over!" The man beckoned Cao Yunbo to hand over the briefcase.
Cao Yunbo clutched the briefcase tightly and asked, "Brother, where are my things?"
"I have to inspect the goods before I give them to you!" The man with bulging muscles on his face pulled out a chainsaw from behind his back.
The sound of a chainsaw crackling filled the air, and soon the briefcase was sawed open.
Empty!
"You fucking dare to lie to me!" The muscular man grabbed Cao Yunbo.
Cao Yunbo begged for mercy in fear: "Big brother, I didn't know it was empty. Gan Tang lied to me."
"I don't care." The muscular man slung the chainsaw over Cao Yunbo's shoulder and snarled, "I'll give you two more days. If you dare to try and fool me again, I'll saw your head off and use it as a football. Get lost!"
"Thank you, brother! Thank you, brother!" Cao Yunbo hurriedly ran away.
The man watched Cao Yunbo leave, then turned and walked to the side of the unfinished building. There, a person was being forced to kneel on the ground by two others. The kneeling person was wearing a black hood.
The man who approached ripped off the man's hood and demanded, "Who sent you?"
"My boss told me to come and pick up some things, and I don't know anything else." The kneeling man kowtowed repeatedly.
Who is your boss?
"Yu Hai!" Yu Hai is a member of the Pang Group, the biggest competitor of the Lu Group.
The muscular man stopped questioning and waved for his men to take him away.
The car was parked on the opposite bank, and they had to cross a river. When they reached the bridge, the man who had been held captive broke free and jumped into the river.
On a tall building in the distance, He Zhong and Yu Dayong watched this scene unfold. Yu Dayong asked, puzzled, "Fourth Master, since you knew Miss didn't steal anything, why did you still send people?"
Isn't that redundant?
"To avoid arousing his suspicion," the secret of the box's alarm was known only to myself, Fu Cheng, and Ali. Ali was unlikely to be the culprit, and Fu Cheng, who was determined to put the Lu Group on the right track, was also unlikely. Therefore, the most suspicious person was myself.
Not coming would be tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked.
But He Zhong was still a little uneasy, because apart from the three of them, no one knew about that place, and the young lady couldn't possibly find it without being given a hint.
He Zhong could only pretend that the location had already been leaked to salvage the situation. As for whether Lu Zhengqian believed him or not, they would have to wait and see.
"If you find out the Ponzi scheme has stopped, then let it go." The brother who escaped was actually his mole planted within the Ponzi scheme, a fact unknown to anyone. He Zhong said ruthlessly, "If they continue investigating, then eliminate him."
"Yes!" Yu Dayong bowed his head. Thinking of his brother's potential tragic death, he felt a pang of pity and asked疑惑地问道, "Fourth Master, if Miss didn't steal anything, why did she lie to Cao Yunbo?"
Their original plan was flawless: steal the profits and stay out of trouble if they didn't. But now that they've only stolen half, it's truly infuriating.
"Yes!" He Zhongqi sighed.
Meanwhile, the young lady they were talking about was being brought back to the airport by Ali.
...
Gan Tang and Chu Jiahe sat in the VIP waiting area, watching the plane about to depart slowly open its door.
Am I just overthinking things?
"Xintang, let's go!" Chu Jiahe stood up and took Gantang's hand.
"good!"
Gan Tang placed her hand in his, her heart surging as she walked towards her own world. Suddenly, her phone rang; it was Cao Yunbo calling.
Gan Tang hung up the phone and, suppressing her fear, sent a message asking: What's wrong?
Cao: Tangtang, why is the briefcase you gave me empty?
The stars twinkled before her eyes, but everything was blurry. Gan Tang turned her head and saw Ali rushing towards her at the entrance of the waiting hall.
Ali stepped forward and said, "Young Master Chu, I'm sorry, Chairman Lu has suddenly fallen seriously ill and is being treated. I've come to ask Miss to go back."
No one would refuse such a reason. Chu Jiahe said urgently, "Xintang, I'll go with you."
"No need!" Gan Tang shook her head. "It's not quite right for us yet."
"Alright!" Considering her mother's attitude, Chu Jiahe didn't insist, but reminded her, "Remember to send me a message."
"good!"
Gan Tang got into the car with Ali. The car didn't go back to Yuanhuai Villa, but stopped in front of a chain budget hotel.
The two took the elevator to the top floor. Walking in the dark and damp corridor, Gan Tang, who was already afraid, became even more terrified.
"Brother Ali, what brings you here?"
"Miss, don't make the chairman angry over irrelevant people." Ali could only offer this advice before walking to the door and knocking.
"Go in!" A single word that revealed no emotion.
Gan Tang took a deep breath and pushed open the door to enter.
