"Did you come in here to laugh at me? What do you want?"
Seeing Zhou Ruan making fun of herself, Zhou Wen looked at Zhou Ruan and asked.
"Oh, I just wanted to ask when you get off work. It's getting late, it's already past ten o'clock."
Zhou Ruan walked to the desk and plopped down in the chair opposite Zhou Wen, took out her phone, turned on the screen, and placed it in front of Zhou Wen, saying...
"In this moment of laziness, I lost all sense of time. Let's go."
Looking at the time on her phone, Zhou Wen was surprised at how quickly time had passed.
She picked up her car keys, got up, and walked outside. Zhou Ruan followed behind her somewhat bewildered older sister, secretly laughing.
"What do you mean? You hung up on me!"
Seeing the screen go dark, Gu Hai angrily slammed the phone to the ground and roared loudly.
The subordinates standing in the hall didn't dare to speak when they saw the angry Gu Hai, and kept their heads down in silence.

"Boss, I don't know what's going on?"
All eyes in the hall turned to the man kneeling on the ground.
They were all thinking: "You've really made the boss so angry, you're in big trouble now."
Their initial envy turned into secret delight; thankfully, they hadn't done such a thing back then.
Looking at the other people he knew in the hall, not a single one stood up to speak for him.
It's like heaven and earth compared to when they were in power.
Gu Hai didn't care what Liu Shang had done for him; he was already blinded by the fact that Zhou Wen had hung up on him earlier.
He felt like killing Liu Shang, who was kneeling on the ground.
"Damn it, Liu Shang, who told you to come back? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on that coffee shop?"
Looking at the person kneeling at his feet, he kicked Liu Shang hard in the chest and questioned him loudly.
Liu Shang, who was kneeling on the ground, was the leader who had been keeping watch at the coffee shop entrance. He hadn't expected to be back so early.
Why is my boss so angry? Regardless of whether I'm right or wrong, I should just kneel down on the ground.
"Ahem, the eldest sister, Zhou Ruan, came out of the shop and said that they had already paid off all the debts with you. They asked why we were still watching here. We thought that since we had received the money, there was no need to keep watching, so we came back."
Liu Shang was knocked down by Gu Hai's kick and couldn't get up for a moment. He coughed twice and knelt down again.
He recounted the entire incident in detail.
"Why didn't you explain yourself clearly just now!"
After Liu Shang finished recounting what had happened, Gu Hai immediately clutched his head and collapsed onto the sofa.
Pointing at Liu Shang kneeling on the ground, he was speechless for a moment.
Liu Shang knelt on the low hill, feeling wronged, not knowing what he had done wrong.
Recalling that as soon as he returned, Gu Hai came straight to him.
"Liu Shang, why are you back?"
Seeing that Liu Shang had actually returned, Gu Hai's face was full of joy as he asked him.
"It was the shop owner who told us to come back. She said he was with you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Hai stood up and burst into laughter, saying, "Hahaha, they finally agreed! I succeeded!"
"Boss, it's me."
"I'm very happy about this matter with Liu Shang. Once I've made it a done deal, you'll reward me handsomely!"
Gu Hai was so excited when he heard the news that he didn't even hear whether the boss was Zhou Wen or Zhou Ruan.
Liu Shang felt that his boss had misunderstood and wanted to explain, but Gu Hai interrupted him again before Liu Shang could finish speaking.
Liu Shang, who was about to offer further advice, was stopped by his good friend standing next to him.
"Congratulations, brother! Judging from how happy you are, you're sure to get a lot of benefits this time. Don't forget your brothers when the time comes."
Several people who were on good terms with Liu Shang surrounded him and said something.
Liu Shang glanced at Gu Hai, who was beaming with joy.
Thinking to myself, "He should know what he's saying," I ignored him and went to play cards with my friends who seemed to be on good terms with me.
Gu Hai calmed himself down, found Zhou Wen's phone number in a notebook, and dialed it using his own phone.
As we all know, Liu Shang knelt on the ground innocently afterward.
She realized there was nothing wrong with herself and secretly glanced at Gu Hai, who was sitting angrily on the sofa.
Thinking to myself: Damn it, you clearly misunderstood, and now you're taking all your anger out on me.
"Guards, take Liu Shang away and give him ten lashes!"
Gu Hai took a deep breath, picked up a cigar from the table, lit it, and gave orders to the two subordinates standing next to him.
"Boss, I've always been your loyal follower, please forgive me this time."
He watched as his two subordinates took out their braids, grabbed his arms, and dragged him towards the corner of the wall.
"Boss, two people are looking for you outside."
One of his men walked in, glanced at Liu Shang being dragged away, swallowed hard, and said to Gu Hai.
"Let them in according to the rules."
Gu Hai looked unhappy, but since someone had come to his door, it meant there was business to be had, and he couldn't refuse. He then gave instructions to his subordinates.
"Come in."
The subordinate spoke into the walkie-talkie.
Soon, two people wearing hoods were brought in. After removing their masks, they saw that there were more than a dozen people surrounding the room.
On the large sofa in the very center sat a man smoking a cigar.
"This must be Mr. Gu Hai, right?"
One of them looked at the person on the sofa and asked.
"Big brother has finished whipping me."
The man who had whipped Liu Shang returned and spoke to Gu Hai.
"Let him go back with that little bit of money. He'll go back to that place tomorrow. If he dares to come back without my orders again, he can forget about having his left hand."
Hearing that the whipping had ended, Gu Hai thought about it and realized that he hadn't really understood the matter clearly.
After all, Liu Shang had been with him for a long time, and if he were to be too harsh, it would discourage the other brothers.
Fortunately, Liu Shang did not reveal the truth, so he did not lose face, and there was no need to investigate further.
"clear!"
Two henchmen took Liu Shang, who had been beaten unconscious with a whip, away.
Just then, two people who had just come in passed by. They were stunned when they saw the blood on the white shirt, as neither of them had ever experienced anything like it before.
"Who are you? Tell me what you want with me."
Seeing the two people who were stunned by such a small scene, it was immediately clear that they were not important figures.
I was hoping to make some money this late, but it turned out to be two little devils.
"My name is Li Yuan, and this is my younger brother, Li Jian."
The older one stepped forward and introduced himself to Gu Hai.
"What's wrong? Do you two want to see me about something?"
After hearing their names, Gu Hai carefully recalled whether he knew these two people.
After thinking for a long time, he realized there were no such people, so he asked.
