This almost scared Lin Nian out of his wits. He looked at the barking dog in terror and quickly retreated.
He had never been to Li Laoqi's house before, so how would he know that his family had a big wolfhound?
Besides, who doesn't tie their dog to the front yard? Who ties it to the backyard? Who the hell are you trying to keep an eye on here?!
Li Laoqi's wife, wearing a thin floral shirt, frowned when she heard the dog barking.
"What's that dog barking about in the middle of the night? All it does is bark all day long."
"Who knows, he's acting like an idiot. There's no one on the main road, and he's yelling for no reason. I'll gag him tomorrow," Li Laoqi said impatiently.
Lin Nian retreated until the dog couldn't see him, and it took a while for the dog to gradually quiet down. Lin Nian lay on the vegetable patch, his heart pounding in his chest.
Lin Nian finally breathed a sigh of relief and caught his breath after the dog fell silent and Li Laoqi showed no sign of coming out.
He was already feeling guilty, and when he was frightened by the dog, Lin Nian realized that his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
He wiped it slightly, then circled around to one side and quietly crept to the base of Li Laoqi's wall.
This time, I managed to get out of a blind spot, and the dog stopped barking.
Lin Nian took out his phone, sent Chen Feng a timely message, and went into hiding.
Huang Fei rode his little motorcycle to the outskirts of Xiaoqiao Village. When he arrived at Xiaoqiao Village, he felt like crying.
Why is everyone else in the village, but he's outside of it?
In the pitch black, how could he possibly find Du Jin's house?
Holding a map drawn by an acquaintance, Huang Fei counted the houses one by one, and it took him a long time to find Du Jin's house.
He sneaked into the backyard and went into the vegetable garden.
Quietly creeping up to the base of the wall, they heard rustling sounds coming from inside the house.
Is the front door locked?
"Lock it up, hurry up, that guy went to play mahjong, don't let him see us."
"Hmm, let's stand this time, I want something more exciting."
Huang Fei: "!!!"
He stared wide-eyed, hiding under the window, never expecting to stumble upon such a thing. He had a look of utter astonishment on his face, and the guilt he felt when he sneaked in earlier had vanished completely.
He never expected that Du Jin's wife would do such a thing.
Huang Fei even wanted to record a video of you saying that if you didn't sign a contract with Chen Feng, he would release the video to your village and make you too ashamed to stay there.
Huang Fei listened to the noise for several minutes, then his phone vibrated. He picked it up and saw that it was a message from Chen Feng.
"Whether we've arrived or not, you're the only one missing."
"We're here, we're here! You can begin!"
Chen Feng received the text message, drove off, and found that Li Laoqi's family had already turned off the lights and gone to sleep. Chen Feng knocked on the door from the outside.
"Who is it?" Li Laoqi was still awake. Hearing the voice, he put on his clothes and came out.
"Uncle Qi, let's talk again," Chen Feng said from outside.
Upon seeing that it was Chen Feng, Li Laoqi opened the door and ushered him into the house.
"Fengzi, come in and talk."
The two men went inside. Li Laoqi lit a cigarette, showing no intention of offering one to Chen Feng.
"Speak, why did you come to me in the middle of the night? How do you want to talk?" Li Laoqi took a breath.
"Seventh Uncle, there's really no need for this. I thought about it this afternoon. How about this?"
"I will pay this money in installments, eight million in twelve installments, one payment per month."
“That way you won’t have to worry about me delaying payment. If I don’t pay you that month, you can come and make a fuss, right?” Chen Feng said sincerely.
Li Laoqi remained silent upon hearing this, clearly pondering the feasibility of the plan.
However, regardless of whether he felt it was appropriate or not, he had to report to the village chief and let him make the decision; he certainly couldn't reply to Chen Feng now.
"Go back, I'll discuss it with my wife, and we'll talk about it tomorrow," Li Laoqi said.
"Alright, Uncle Qi, you should discuss this with Auntie and give me a message tomorrow." Chen Feng gave her many instructions before finally leaving Li Laoqi's house.
As Chen Feng left the hospital and got into the car, a disdainful smile appeared on his lips.
When they arrived at the second shop, they used the same method, saying the same things and making the same excuses.
Sure enough, the replies from the others were all pretty much the same, saying they wanted to discuss it.
The last house was Du Jin's. When Chen Feng arrived at Du Jin's house, the lights were still on and the door was unlocked.
Chen Feng went straight in and knocked on the door.
"They're here."
Du Jin's voice came from inside the house. Upon seeing that it was Chen Feng, he quickly invited him in.
"Come and sit down. What brings you here so late at night? You can just give me a call if you need anything."
"It's alright, it's better to come in person," Chen Feng said with a smile as he sat down.
Seeing this, his wife quickly came out and made some tea for Chen Feng.
Chen Feng explained the terms to them, and Du Jin nodded repeatedly. His wife was also tempted.
"Anyway, you should think it over carefully. It's too late and I'm disturbing your rest, so I'll be leaving now," Chen Feng said, standing up.
"Okay, okay, take care."
"It's dark at night, walk slowly."
The two men saw Chen Feng out of the house, both of them feeling very hesitant.
However, Chen Feng didn't care what they were thinking. He had already achieved his goal and was now waiting for the human surveillance cameras to return so he could find that person.
After Chen Feng left, Li Laoqi put on his clothes and returned to the bedroom. His wife immediately spoke up.
"What's going on? I couldn't hear clearly from inside the house. What does he want to do?"
"Hmph, he's getting impatient and wants to come over and talk to me about installment payments. I think if I keep him tied up for a while longer, he'll have no choice but to pay."
"However, we must report this situation to the village chief and see what he has to say."
After saying that, Li Laoqi took out his phone and called the village chief. Lin Nian, who was standing by the wall, heard everything clearly.
"The village chief, it's actually the village chief?!" Lin Nian exclaimed in his mind in shock.
He never imagined that it was the village chief who was behind it all.
On the other side, Huang Fei was still at the base of the wall, listening to the humming and laughing sounds of the two people inside the house.
Just then, a voice entered the courtyard. The two people inside were completely unaware until the person opened the door and found it locked from the inside. Only then did they turn around in alarm.
"Holy crap, wasn't he playing mahjong?!"
"How was I supposed to know? Why are you back so quickly today? Hurry up and go!"
"How can I get out? He's blocking the gate! Where are my shoes? Where are my shoes?!"
The two people inside the room spoke in hushed, fearful voices, followed by sounds of frantic scrambling.
"You son of a bitch, why did you lock the door for no reason? What the hell are you doing?!" A slightly drunken voice stormed in angrily.
Huang Fei, standing by the wall, was practically clapping with glee. This was too exciting! Caught in the act, a real show was about to begin!
"Nothing, I'm sleeping, wait a minute," came the woman's flustered voice.
"I'll wait for your mother!" The angry man kicked open the door and turned on the light. He saw a woman putting on her shirt and a man holding his underwear and shoes, staring at him.
