Wu Yu was waiting anxiously for Liu Guangqi and Liu Haizhong to return to Liu Haizhong's house. If she had any other way to find them, she would have gone out herself and brought them back immediately.
"No, I mean, when are they finally coming back?" Wu Yu asked her second aunt anxiously as the sky outside gradually darkened.
Auntie Er had no idea what Wu Yu was up to, but she replied somewhat impatiently, "She'll be back when it's time to get off work, where else could she go!"
Wu Yu didn't get any definite news from her second aunt, and she became increasingly anxious while waiting at home.
So Wu Yu simply left Liu Haizhong's house, came out of the courtyard, and sat at the entrance of the courtyard.
"These two people with bangs are so unreliable! They're off work and don't even know to go home!"
Wu Yu looked in the direction of the steel mill and muttered to himself.
"Hey, isn't that Liu Guangqi's friend?"
Yan Fugui, who was squatting at the entrance of the compound, saw Wu Yu come out and sit at the entrance. His eyes lit up and he took the initiative to approach Wu Yu and start chatting with him.
Wu Yu heard someone talking to her, so she turned her head to look.
“Yes, I am Liu Guangqi’s friend!” Wu Yu subconsciously responded to Yan Fugui.
Yan Fugui received confirmation of the news, and he became even more excited.
"You're Liu Guangqi's friend. Why are you staying at their house? Is there something you need?"
Yan Fugui had also heard some of the recent rumors circulating in the compound.
However, with so many rumors circulating, Yan Fugui found it difficult to distinguish which were true.
Now that he had met the person in question, Yan Fugui's interest was immediately piqued, and he thought about finding some breakthroughs from Wu Yu.
"It's okay! It's okay! Can't I stay at Liu Guangqi's house? What kind of logic is that!"
Wu Yu's mind wasn't on Yan Fugui at all; he was anxiously waiting for Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi to return, so he wouldn't give them or Yan Fugui a friendly look, and his words were naturally very stiff.
Yan Fugui wasn't angry at Wu Yu's rudeness, after all, he was the one who had taken the initiative to approach her.
And most importantly, his goal was to extract information from Wu Yu that others didn't know.
So Yan Fugui patiently continued asking questions.
"Nothing's wrong? What has Liu Guangqi been doing at home lately? I don't think he's going to work, and he's always leaving early and coming home late, I hardly ever see him!"
Yan Fugui continued to speak, trying to get some information out of Wu Yu.
"What's it to you!"
Wu Yu was used to being a petty thug, so he didn't hold back when talking to Yan Fugui. When he heard Yan Fugui rambling on to him, he immediately retorted.
Yan Fugui was speechless after being retorted, and could only continue, "We're all from the same compound. I've watched Liu Guangqi grow up since he was a child, so of course I have to care about him!"
Yan Fugui felt he had found a perfect excuse, but looking at Wu Yu in front of him, who seemed unyielding, Yan Fugui didn't know what to do with him for the time being.
If it were someone from the compound, could Yan Fugui use his power to intimidate them or anything?
However, Yan Fugui also realized that Wu Yu in front of him was just a street thug, and he didn't have any good way to deal with his reckless personality.
However, Yan Fugui was unwilling to give up the opportunity so easily. He had finally found a suitable opportunity to ask some questions.
So Yan Fugui patiently continued, "Is there something wrong with Liu Guangqi?"
"If anything happens, you can tell me, and I can help him out!"
"Well, to be honest, I am a little worried about him too!"
Then, he put on a compassionate expression and spoke to Wu Yu.
Wu Yu glanced at Yan Fugui, turning her head away.
"Go away, go away, go do what you're supposed to do. This has nothing to do with you. You'd better stay away from me, do you hear me!"
In the end, Wu Yu didn't give Yan Fugui a kind look at all. She waved him away impatiently, as if shooing away a fly, telling Yan Fugui to get lost.
Yan Fugui's face turned pale and then red with anger; he hadn't been treated like this in a long time.
"Hmph, ungrateful wretch!"
Finally, feeling somewhat helpless, Yan Fugui could only snort coldly, mutter something under his breath, and then go sit down to the side.
Although Wu Yu said that to Yan Fugui, he was too lazy to pay any attention to him.
His most urgent task now is to get Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi back as soon as possible, give him the money, and settle things quickly so he can make his escape.
Fortunately, Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi didn't keep Wu Yu waiting for long. Although it was unclear how Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi had gotten together, they had come back to the compound together from the direction of the steel rolling mill.
"Oh, you two are finally back! I've been waiting for you so anxiously!"
When Wu Yu saw Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi coming from a distance, she ran a few steps and came up to them, speaking to them with a hint of reproach.
When Liu Haizui and Liu Guangqi saw Wu Yu's expression, they thought something had happened.
Liu Guangqi hurriedly asked Wu Yu, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to see us? Is there something you need?"
"Of course something's wrong!"
"Don't you two know what I went out to do today? Since you knew I was out on business, why couldn't you come back sooner!"
Wu Yu, with a hint of resentment, gave Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi a lecture.
Before Liu Haizhong and Liu Guangqi could say anything, Wu Yu continued, "Let me tell you, I've accomplished what I set out to do today!"
"And there are quite a few benefits to it!"
That's why I'm so anxious for you two to come back quickly!
Wu Yu said to the two of them with a worried expression.
Liu Guangqi opened his mouth to ask what was going on, but was interrupted by Liu Haizhong.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, let's talk about this when we get home!"
Although Liu Haizhong was also anxious about the outcome of the matter, he noticed that Yan Fugui had actually pricked up his ears and leaned closer.
Clearly wanting to see what the three of them were saying, Liu Haizhong quickly interrupted Liu Guangqi and Wu Yu.
