Chapter 457: Kind Words Make Good Connections

Fang Yaoyao crawled over here vigorously, trying to grab the corner of her clothes: "Please, let us go!"

Li Yue sighed: "This is impossible."

She also wanted to survive, so how could she offend the hall master for two strangers?

Shengxia seemed to have guessed that she would answer like this. She patted Fang Yaoyao soothingly and then said to Li Yue:

"Thank you for listening to us for so long."

Two lines of tears flowed down her wrinkled face: "At least there is someone in this world who understands what we have been through."

Li Yue looked at Fang Yaoyao who was crying so hard that she was about to pass out, sighed, and said:

"The best I can do is make your days a little easier."

According to her previous experience of serving old ladies, this beauty will suck them dry within three days to a week. In other words, in a few days, the two will die of old age.

Li Yue glanced at their damp clothes and said, "I'll bring you some clean clothes and thick blankets later."

This doesn't count as dereliction of duty on her part. Anyway, the higher-ups' intention is to ensure their health and avoid accidents.

After saying that, she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Um..." Shengxia called her again: "Can you help me pass a message?"

Li Yue looked down at her: "What?"

Shengxia bit her lip and said, "Can you help me send a message to the couple living on the third floor of the inn and tell them that we..."

Li Yue understood what she meant and interrupted her with a raised eyebrow: "Why do you think those two strangers would come here to rescue you?"

Shengxia shook her head: "I don't think so. Just trying it out."

He paused and murmured, "That girl is quite nice."

Some people look gentle and considerate, but are actually vicious, like the proprietress named Huang Feng. Some people appear cold and ruthless, but are actually quite humane.

She and Fang Yaoyao were locked up tightly, and had no chance of survival on their own. Besides the man in front of them, the only people they knew here were the couple on the third floor.

They are very strong.

Annan's cold face appeared in Shengxia's mind. She probably wouldn't come to help.

But she wanted to try.

But it was obvious that her idea was impossible to implement. Li Yue decisively refused and said, "I can't help you."

"The inn is our master's private territory. We are not allowed to approach it without permission."

At this point, she paused and said bluntly: "Even if I could get close, I wouldn't risk losing my head to help you."

Shengxia sat back down in disappointment: "I understand."

Li Yue stared at her for a long while, then said, "But the couple you mentioned must be our hall master's next target."

She thought for a moment and said, "If you are lucky, you will see her in this small dark room soon. If you are unlucky, she will be locked up in here after you die."

Li Yue paused and said jokingly:

"It's also possible that your ancestors' graves were filled with smoke, and not only were they not caught, they were able to rescue you in the process."

Shengxia ignored her teasing and curled up in the corner again, lowering his head, hugging his body and not saying a word.

The only sound in the room was Fang Yaoyao's sobbing.

Li Yue pushed the tray towards them and prepared to leave.

Before opening the door, she hesitated for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Why do you dare to tell me so much?"

Do I look so disloyal and so easy to be turned against?

Shengxia raised her head and said, "You are a good person. You won't harm us."

In fact, the main reason is that nothing can be worse than the current situation.

What if the other party is willing to help?

Li Yue snorted: "Then you are wrong. I am not a good person."

She is a person who will do anything to survive.

Shengxia didn't say anything else. Li Yue opened the door and prepared to leave.

Before she closed the door, Shengxia whispered earnestly, "Thank you."

Kind words create good connections.

Li Yue paused, closed and locked the door tightly, then could not help but let out a "tsk".

Why couldn't they just be like her female colleague and say mean things to her?

She would rather meet those kind of bad people so that she can watch the suffering that has nothing to do with her without any psychological burden, rather than tormenting her humanity and conscience like this.

Li Yue adjusted her hair and walked forward.

Nothing is more important than being alive. Although they are pitiful, she will not help them.

I won't go to hell, whoever wants to go can go there.

When she passed by the female colleague, she still looked at her with pitiful eyes, clasped her hands together, and whispered: "Save me, please."

Li Yue glanced at her, and as if to prove that he was a cruel and bad person, he spat out a mouthful of saliva from his mouth, wanting to spit it on the woman.

But at the last moment, his head tilted and he vomited on the ground next to the woman.

Then he held his head high and walked away at a quickened pace.

Going up from the basement is a shopping mall.

This place has been converted into a dormitory for the Yunyin Hall of the Qingcheng Gang. The living environment is average, with many men living in one room and the stench is overwhelming.

As soon as Li Yue came up, someone greeted her:

"Sister Yueyue, I've finished my work!"

It’s still the same man from before.

Li Yue nodded, looked around, and muttered, "It's so quiet today."

The man smiled and said, "With one third of the people gone, of course it's quiet! All the brothers in our three groups have gone out to do their tasks with Deputy Hall Master Shen."

Speaking of Deputy Hall Master Shen, Li Yue immediately thought of the heart-broken dragon that Sheng Xia and Fang Yaoyao had talked about, and couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.

She smiled stiffly: "Why didn't you go? Are you still secretly looking for girls here?"

The man grinned: "Today is my birthday."

Li Yue nodded in understanding. The Qingcheng Gang had a rule that birthdays could be taken off and one could sleep in the dormitory all day.

The man was still muttering to himself: "I wonder if the mission was completed smoothly? This deputy hall master was parachuted in, and the brothers are not convinced."

The former deputy hall master was very popular among the people, and these gang members supported him very much. That was why Huang Feng instructed Shen Ao to get rid of him and replace him.

Li Yue smiled at the man and said, "No matter how he finishes, he is already the deputy hall master."

The man was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said:

"That's right! I still admire our deputy hall master! He is so young, but his skills are so good..."

Li Yue smiled meaningfully: "The most important thing is that the hall master likes it."

Their Qingcheng Gang is almost centered around the leader Huang Feng.

The gang is divided into three halls, each with three action teams, and the three hall masters each manage their own area of ​​jurisdiction.

But any good resources the other two hall masters have will be sent to Yunyin Hall.
