Chapter 308: Finishing the Fight
With Mamianhu's style of doing things, he dares to make any dirty money and do any dirty work. The lives he owes include not only innocent citizens and gangsters, but also police officers who died in his hands.
However, in Baogang, everything depends on evidence. Mamianhu did a good job in finishing the case, and with the help of a famous lawyer, he was released on bail several times after being arrested.
Everyone knows that he is not a good person, but no one can do anything about it.
Dong Peiyu was worried that Mamianhu would continue to cause trouble after he recovered from his illness. Seeing that Ye Zhini was busy in the kitchen and couldn't hear her, she lowered her voice and said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "Why don't we find someone to flatter him? If someone is willing to take this order, you and I will each pay half of the commission."
Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh, "Didn't you object to finding someone to flatter him before?"
"Before, it was before. Before, he was firmly in the leading position and had many people at his disposal, so it was difficult to attack him. He might even target us. Now he's weak and can't run away, so it's easier to attack him."
Hu Xiaoxiao stroked the teacup with her fingers, thinking for a long time. When the tea in the cup cooled down a little, she said, "Don't worry. Maybe someone wants him dead more than we do. If my guess is correct, the pockmarked tiger will not survive tonight."
"How do you know?" Dong Peiyu asked in surprise.
Hu Xiaoxiao poured another cup of hot tea and said, "Even you, an outsider, can find out all kinds of information about Mamianhu in the hospital. Do you think others know about it? And who leaked this information? The Sanren Society is not united in purpose. I guess someone has been wanting to take Mamianhu's position for a long time."
Adding Mamianhu’s former enemies, that is to say, there are more than one or two people who are trying to make him sick by taking advantage of his illness.
Most of these big brothers would kill their way to that position, and once they showed signs of weakness, stronger people would immediately appear and kill them.
Dong Peiyu clasped her hands together and chanted "Amitabha," "I hope God will call him soon."
Hu Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing again, "Amitabha can't control God's affairs."
Dong Peiyu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's the Buddha of the East or the God of the West, as long as it works."
Ye Zhini was very quick and prepared six dishes and a soup in just one hour. She was worthy of being Dong Peiyu's carefully selected life assistant.
"Sister Xiao, Sister Dong, it's time to eat." Ye Zhini picked up the corn, carrot and pork ribs soup from the casserole and placed it on the dining table. She then went back to the kitchen and brought out the dishes one by one.
Steamed grouper, blanched black tiger prawns, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, boiled chicken, fried squid with leeks, sweet and sour pork, plus a corn, carrot and pork rib soup, which makes exactly six dishes and one soup.
The food was delicious and tasty. Before Hu Xiaoxiao even sat down, he said to Dong Peiyu, "Give the girl a raise. Double her monthly salary and double her year-end bonus."
Ye Zhini came out with the dishes and chopsticks. When she heard that her salary had increased so much, she hurriedly expressed her gratitude.
Hu Xiaoxiao's salary was already much higher than her peers', and now it's been tripled, with a year-end bonus that's doubled. Dong Peiyu told her that Hu Xiaoxiao's bonuses are even higher than her salary. So, her salary is worth several other people's jobs.
Ye Zhini placed the ginger and scallion seasoning for boiled chicken in front of Hu Xiaoxiao. She knew from her job interview that Hu Xiaoxiao loved chicken, all kinds of delicious chicken, especially well-cooked boiled chicken. "Sister Xiao, try my ginger and scallion seasoning and see if it's as good as the restaurant chef's."
After Hu Xiaoxiao sat down, he started eating immediately. He first picked up a piece of tender chicken leg, dipped it in ginger and scallions, and started eating.
It was fresh, smooth and fragrant, almost as good as the white-cut chicken restaurant she often went to.
Hu Xiaoxiao suddenly felt like she had found a treasure. She tried other dishes and they were no worse than those in the restaurant. "Girl, your cooking skills are amazing. Does your family own a restaurant?"
"No." Ye Zhini sat down and said, "There's a big restaurant near my home. My mom washes dishes there. When I was a kid, I often went there to help out. I also went to the kitchen to watch the chefs cook. I watched a lot, and the chef was willing to teach me a few tricks because I was young, so my cooking skills are pretty good."
She had originally considered opening a small restaurant if she couldn't find a suitable job. However, having grown up helping out in the kitchens of large restaurants, she knew firsthand how arduous the restaurant industry was, especially cooking, which was inherently physically demanding. Add to that the sweltering heat of Hong Kong, and you'd sweat so much you could soak through several sets of clothes. Still in her early twenties, she didn't want to toss around in the kitchen and get all fumes from cooking, so she sought a less stressful job. She couldn't afford to consider opening a small restaurant later.
Ye Zhini liked her current job very much. She had a high salary, a generous boss, and a good personality. So, she immediately stood up and added another bowl of soup to Hu Xiaoxiao's bowl.
Hu Xiaoxiao ate with great relish. Every dish suited her taste and she had a very enjoyable meal.
After dinner, Hu Xiaoxiao discussed work matters with Dong Peiyu. Not long after, the sun set.
After seeing off Dong Peiyu and Ye Zhini, Hu Xiaoxiao looked at the night sky. Dark clouds covered the moon, and the wind was high and the air was refreshing.
After reloading the gun and taking a fruit knife, Hu Xiaoxiao drove another car to the hospital where Mamianhu was being treated.
Although she guessed that someone would kill the pockmarked tiger tonight, she decided to go there in person just in case. If the pockmarked tiger was lucky enough not to be killed, she would go over and give him a finishing blow.
Last night was so dangerous, even though the fuel tank exploded, but Pockmarked Tiger was still alive. Hu Xiaoxiao felt that it was not too much to be vigilant. If Pockmarked Tiger woke up and knew that two of his men were disabled by her, or guessed that she was the one who did it last night, the people around her would be in great trouble.
She was not afraid of the people from the Sanren Society, but if Dong Peiyu, Ye Zhini, or her other friends were angered by the madman Mamianhu, she would regret it.
Therefore, the pockmarked tiger must die.
Hu Xiaoxiao parked the car in a remote place some distance away from the hospital. There were no street lights and the visibility was dim.
The information Dong Peiyu obtained about Mamianhu was very detailed, even down to which floor he lived on. This also made it convenient for Hu Xiaoxiao. After sneaking into the hospital, she successfully reached this floor.
Fortunately, the hospital did not have surveillance or infrared systems everywhere like in the thief movies. It was late at night and the hospital was much quieter than during the day.
But Hu Xiaoxiao still found it incredible that he could get up so easily.
It was not until he saw a few men from the Sanren Society hiding in the corner playing cards that Hu Xiaoxiao realized that someone was helping to create the conditions.
In that case, she doesn't need to be anxious.
Hu Xiaoxiao found an empty ward across the street and went inside, first checking if there was a place he could escape to in an emergency. He pushed the window, but it was fixed shut, leaving only a fist-sized gap for air. The glass wasn't thick, so if the situation changed, he could just smash it and jump out.
Hu Xiaoxiao pulled a chair in front of the window, left the door a crack, and waited quietly.
