"By the way, you haven't given me the deposit for the second lawsuit yet."
Ignoring Wang Qian's bitter expression, Huang Bo stretched out a large hand and said, "Give me money, and I'll have the strength to help you with your work."
"What second lawsuit?" Wang Qian was slightly taken aback.
"Don't play dumb with me, kid."
Huang Bo stood up anxiously and pointed at Wang Qian, saying, "Yesterday you made me run around like crazy to find out about Gu Zhijian, and then you asked me to help him sue Liu Jingzhong. Isn't that another lawsuit?"
"Uh...you even count this?"
Wang Qian wiped away a cold sweat and said dejectedly, "I thought it was just a purely friendly gesture."
"Sorry, I only do business with people, not friendships!"
Huang Bo shook his rough hand again and urged in an unyielding tone, "Give me the money, give me the money. If you don't give me the money, I'll take my wife and leave right now. You can find another lawyer yourself."
Wang Qian's lips twitched slightly.
But seeing Huang Bo's shameless appearance, he finally gave in and took out a wad of cash from his bag.
"Mr. Wang is so generous, thank you!"
Huang Bo quickly reached out to take it.
But he stopped halfway through reaching out.
Because Wang Qian had already taken the stack of money back, he took out a hundred-yuan bill and placed it on the table. "Here, this is the deposit. I am poor, so I can only pay your minimum fee."
After saying that, Wang Qian stuffed the rest of the money back into his bag.
Huang Bo's face immediately darkened. "I just called you Boss Wang, how can you be so stingy?"
"You think flattery will work on me?"
Wang Qian rolled his eyes and said sarcastically, "I've called you 'Attorney Huang' many times before, but you haven't given me any benefits."
Not wanting to argue with Huang Bo any longer, he glanced at the hundred yuan on the table and said, "This hundred yuan is a deposit. Do you not want it?"
"Of course I want it! Even a small grasshopper is still meat!"
Huang Bo snatched the money as if he were grabbing it, and added, "Remember, this is just the initial fee. If you need anything else done later, there will be additional charges, and I will set the next fee schedule."
"Get lost, I have things to do, don't waste my time here." Wang Qian waved his hand as if shooing away a fly.
"Tch, do you really think I enjoy staying in this lousy place of yours?"
Huang Bo pursed his lips, then grabbed Yao Xishui's arm. "Wife, let's go!"
Yao Xishui looked embarrassed. Before leaving, she gave Wang Qian and Lin Chao an apologetic look, "Wang Qian, Xiao Chao, we'll be going now!"
"Okay, take care on your journey." Wang Qian nodded.
Lin Chao waved back, "Goodbye!"
Soon, the two left the dormitory building of Niangui Grilled Green Pepper Sauce Company.
"Huang Bo, aren't you and Wang Qian on good terms? Why are you always arguing with him over trivial matters?"
Yao Xishui turned around and looked at him, asking with a puzzled expression.
In her memory, Huang Bo was very close to Wang Qian, her best friend.
As a result, every time the two met, they would argue heatedly over trivial matters, sometimes even ending up on bad terms.
"It's not that I like to haggle with him, but you've probably seen how stingy he is. Sometimes he'll even try to outsmart me over a bowl of noodles. Isn't that disgusting?" Huang Bo said indignantly.
"You two are just all talk and no action."
Yao Xishui could only manage a wry smile.
She remembered that before, in Linjiang City, after Huang Bo and Wang Qian teamed up to scam Jiang Zhenghua, Huang Bo got 500,000 yuan, which was originally intended to be given to Wang Qian.
But Wang Qian refused to take a single penny and gave it all to Huang Bo.
Such a large sum of money, given away so easily, without even blinking an eye.
As a result, every time the two were together, they would argue over a few cents or dollars; they were truly an odd couple.
"I'm not just being stubborn on the surface but soft on the inside."
Huang Bo quickly denied it, "Wang Qian is so rich, but he's still so stingy. I just can't stand it. I won't let him bleed out of me if I get the chance."
"You're all talk and no action."
Yao Xishui pinched Huang Bo's shoulder, "So what are you planning to do next?"
“Let’s go back and prepare the documents. This time, if we don’t send that old bastard Liu Jingzhong to prison so he can reunite with his daughter, he definitely won’t let it go,” Huang Bo said angrily.
"Didn't Wang Qian only give you a hundred yuan?"
Yao Xishui smiled enigmatically, "You actually went to such lengths?"
Huang Bo blushed and tried to cover up his mistake by saying, "If you take someone's money, you have to do their job. Although the amount he gave me was a little less, since I took it, I have to do my best to help him get things done."
Yao Xishui just smiled and didn't say anything.
...
Niangui Roasted Green Pepper Sauce Company Dormitory Building.
In the office.
"Brother-in-law, have we been working for nothing these past two days?"
After Huang Bo and Yao Xishui left, Lin Chao smiled wryly.
In the past two days, they had already obtained leverage over Zhou Quanfu and Chen Jingying, and at the same time, they used them to intimidate Long Shuai and force him to compromise.
As a result, Wang Qian did not take them down, but instead let them continue acting.
The purpose was to lure out Liu Jingzhong, the mastermind behind it all.
But now it seems that the whole performance was for nothing.
Liu Jingzhong, that old fox, wasn't fooled at all. He only sent Zhou Qin forward as cannon fodder, showing no intention of getting involved himself.
"Don't rush, let the bullets fly a little longer," Wang Qian said with a mysterious smile.
