When Yuan Zhuan led Wu Tianqing downstairs, the driver who had driven them yesterday was already waiting in the lobby.
"Miss Yuan, Mr. Wu." The driver greeted Yuan Zhuan with a smile as she stepped out of the elevator.
"Have you been here long?" Yuan Zhuan looked at her watch. It was four o'clock. Hmm, she wasn't late. She was quite punctual.
"No, I just arrived too."
"You seem to be in good spirits." You must have had some rest last night.
"Thanks to Miss Yuan, I slept well last night." Since he was the one who picked her up yesterday, he was assigned to continue serving Miss Yuan today. Isn't that a blessing?
Yuan Zhuan smiled, and Wu Tianqing had already opened the car door.
When they arrived at the dock, Fu Dong was already waiting for them at the spot where they had gotten off the car.
"Did you rest well?" Fu Dong's fatigue was clearly visible.
"Is it troublesome?"
"Obviously."
"Give me your hand." Yuan Zhuan took Fu Dong's hand and saw what had happened last night.
"Give me photos of the people you met last night, or videos."
Fu Dong reached out, and the bodyguard next to his left arm pulled out a photo from his pocket.
Wu Tianqing surveyed his surroundings. The dock was piled high with cargo containers, and some night watchmen were patrolling the area, their eyes glancing intentionally or unintentionally toward where they were.
"There are suspicious people watching this area around 7 o'clock and 11 o'clock."
"Go, bring him here." Fu Dong ordered with a dark face. If it weren't for the fact that it was inappropriate to take action now, he would have personally beaten the person up.
As soon as the bodyguards moved, the people hiding in the shadows immediately ducked and tried to run, thus beginning a multi-person chase.
“If they can’t catch them, you go.” Yuan Zhuan glanced at them. “These aren’t your family members, are they?” The first part was addressed to Wu Tianqing.
Wu Tianqing turned and ran wildly, his speed making Fu Dong somewhat envious. "How did you know?" he asked.
Yuan Zhuan smiled and said, "Next time you go out on business, don't use these outside services. They can't protect your safety."
"knew."
Security captain: Are you two being polite? I'm still here. There are four other team members.
The speed of the elite soldier was naturally unmatched by the bodyguards. With two thuds, the two short men were slammed heavily onto the concrete ground, groaning in pain.
"Take it with you."
Less than a kilometer from the dock, there were over thirty acres of land, all of which were used to build factories, specifically for renting out to dock merchants to store goods. The Fu family's factory, which was over a thousand square meters, was exclusively used by the Fu family and had been in good condition for over ten years. However, yesterday they suddenly breached the contract, offering to pay a penalty in exchange for transferring the goods stored a few days earlier. No matter what they said, it was no use; their attitude was very firm. That's why Fu Dong brought his men over overnight. The people they met at the dock last night were indeed them.
"The delivery date for this batch of goods is still three days away. The other party's cargo ship will not pass through here for three days. We have nowhere to go. I asked around for other factory buildings, and they have all been rented out. It's as if they came prepared."
What kind of goods?
“There’s a large quantity of clothing and silk. It would be very troublesome to transfer them to other places. As you saw on the way here, it’s all commercial areas. We couldn’t find a suitable place to store them along the way. This new shipment also needs to be stored overnight. We can’t do without it.”
"Young Master, they're trying to forcibly move our goods out of the factory. No amount of communication has worked, and they've already started moving them. Young Master, the weather forecast says it will rain tonight." The voice on the other end of the phone was anxious, and there was a lot of noise.
"Don't worry, we're almost there." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned a corner and saw a crowd of people pushing and shoving at the factory entrance, and boxes being carried out one after another, some of which were even lying haphazardly on the ground. Fu Dong's temples bulged with veins, which flashed.
When Fu Dong's manager saw the car coming in, he immediately realized what was happening and ran up to it.
"Young Master, you've finally arrived."
The cardboard boxes kept piling up, numbering in the hundreds at a glance, not to mention those scattered on the ground. Fu Dong's adrenaline surged, and he gritted his teeth, following the manager as they charged forward.
Yuan Zhuan gestured for Wu Tianqing to follow, "Don't let him get hurt. Throw out anyone who tries to fight, but be careful not to overdo it."
"good."
Then, Yuan Zhuan watched Fu Dong arguing angrily with someone, and then... well... people were thrown aside one after another, while Wu Tianqing acted swiftly.
She sighed... She knew it.
“Chen Tianfang, is that your master? Call him. If he can’t get here in ten minutes, he’ll probably be on his wife’s cell phone in the courtyard on Jinli Street.” The man, who was being held down on the ground and was so angry that he wanted to bite Fu Dong to death, suddenly stopped moving when he heard Yuan Zhuan’s words, and his expression froze.
Clearly, he knew Chen Tianfang's background.
So, this is Chen Tianfang's direct subordinate, tsk...
At Yuan Zhuan's signal, the man was released, but he didn't curse or swear. Instead, he glanced at Yuan Zhuan warily and went to the side to make a phone call.
In the shadows, the man muttered to himself on his mobile phone while warily watching the short, thin man. He couldn't understand this man's background; how could he know such a confidential matter as his boss? Only ten days had passed since the arrangement was made, and the boss hadn't even visited once. How could he know?
"Yuan Zhuan, what did you say to him?" Fu Dong only saw Yuan Zhuan whisper something in the man's ear, and then the man stopped struggling. After letting go, he didn't make any other moves, but hid to the side to make a phone call. His actions, as if he were guarding against a thief, looked very strange.
“His boss has a mistress who is only 18 years old and is a man. I know the address.”
Fu Dong: ...
"My goodness. This world is strange." Fu Dong's worldview was suddenly opened, and he found it hard to accept.
"Is it strange?" Marrying a doll is strange, this is a person, after all.
"Isn't that strange?" Fu Dong's heart twisted, and his resolute face was scrunched up like a steamed bun.
After the man finished his call, he spoke to the people moving the goods, and they all stopped and stood aside, waiting for further instructions.
"Our boss said he'll be here soon, Mr. Fu, please wait a moment." The man forced a smile, then strode into the factory. He needed to call his nephew and move to another place as soon as possible.
The sound of a motorcycle braking suddenly is just as loud as the sound of it accelerating; both are extremely ear-piercing.
Fu Dong, a sneer on his lips, crossed his arms and waited for the person to come over.
"Oh my, isn't this Young Master Fu? What's wrong? Who made you angry? Don't be angry, don't be angry. Getting angry is bad for your health. Later, let's find a place to have a couple of drinks, and I'll find someone for you to vent your anger on."
Fu Dong's cold expression dampened Chen Tianfang's lively opening remarks. He coughed awkwardly, toning down his exaggerated manner of speaking. "Young Master Fu, let's move to the factory's break room to talk." His gaze swept over Yuan Zhuan, a hint of apprehension in his eyes. He already knew from the phone call that it wasn't Fu Dong who had said those words, but this skinny man. "But, who is this?"
"Oh, the master I invited." This was the introduction Yuan Zhuan requested.
She needs to expand her business.
Chen Tianfang: ...
On the way here, I considered a million possibilities, but I never expected it to turn out like this.
He also harbored some resentment towards Dong, thinking that he might not believe the private investigator.
"By the way, Captain Qi, bring those two over. Mr. Chen, do these two faces look familiar?"
Two men, shaped like sandbags, were thrown at Chen Tianfang. Chen Tianfang was almost hit squarely, but he took a few steps back to avoid it. He glared angrily at Captain Qi, who had thrown the sandbags. The latter stared back coldly, his suppressed anger somewhat agitated.
Damn it, does he really think he's incompetent?! If he glares at me again, I'll beat the crap out of him!
