After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Gu Lianyi's voice came through again.
"Xu Ruo, I'm not in the mood for jokes."
"Tell me your location, and I'll come find you."
"No need." I was slightly disappointed at not getting an answer, but then I smiled and said, "The person has already arrived."
"Huh?" Gu Lianyi was clearly anxious. "Then don't get into a conflict with them, and protect yourself as much as possible."
“But he’s already gone,” I added.
Gu Lianyi fell silent once again.
"You're not kidding?"
"No, a blond guy and a van came, with a few people in the car, but they've already left." I said with a smile, "Don't forget why I'm here today."
"So, you're alright?" Gu Lianyi asked again to confirm.
I confirmed, "Yes, it's nothing."
"There are over a hundred of us."
"I was able to let those few people go because I'm a law-abiding citizen."
I was filled with emotion.
That makes sense.
If I were ruthless, they definitely wouldn't have been able to escape.
"Pfft." Gu Lianyi finally laughed. "It's alright."
"But you still need to be careful."
"Be very careful."
"Okay," I replied with a smile.
"That's all for now, I have something to do." Gu Lianyi seemed a little anxious. "Don't forget about tomorrow's arrangements."
"What's up?"
"Have a meal!"
Beep beep beep...
The call ended.
Gu Lianyi seemed to know I would nag her about the meal again, so she didn't give me a chance.
When I heard the phone call end, my eyes narrowed slightly.
Strangely enough, hearing Gu Lianyi's concern warmed my heart for no reason.
And I was actually a little disappointed that I didn't hear a touching answer from her.
"I must be sick."
I frowned slightly.
"That woman Gu Lianyi, I actually expect her to say something touching."
After cursing myself in my heart, I stopped thinking about it and started fiddling with my Douyin account on my phone.
Soon, the appointed time arrived.
Wang Qian sent me a message as promised.
I didn't waste any time and called out to the group who were chatting, "Now, we're going to start our work."
"As previously agreed, once we arrived at the location, we walked into the cemetery. The hundred of us were divided into two lines. We were not allowed to talk to each other or whisper throughout the entire process. We all had to hold umbrellas and stand upright."
"I know it must be tiring to stand like this all day."
"But after the job is done, you will not only receive a salary, but I will also select some of you as future partners based on your level of expertise."
"In addition, there will be all sorts of benefits waiting for you."
So, can you do it well?
"able!"
"Then, let's go!"
After I finished speaking, I walked to the front of the group.
For convenience, I changed into a suit, carried a black umbrella, and wore sunglasses.
A quick glance revealed that the hundred or so people behind me were all neatly arranged, giving them a truly unfathomable and mysterious air.
The inspiration for doing this actually came from Douyin (TikTok) in my past life.
Back then it was just a popular meme, and no one actually implemented it. Now I'm just bringing that meme to life.
Whether it will be effective remains to be seen.
