She wiped her face, started the car, and drove off towards Guangdong Province without looking back.
At 3 a.m., Chen Xue said to Zhou Jian'an beside her with a puzzled look, "Could something have happened to my brother? Why hasn't he come back yet?"
That man was Chen Xue's lover.
Zhou Jian'an gave her 10,000 yuan and asked her to find someone to stop Zhou Fangchun and take her to a house in the countryside and lock her up.
Where could Chen Xue find someone to do this kind of thing?
She then thought of her lover. The two of them conspired to have the man steal a uniform from the police station's residential compound, pretend to be a police officer checking vehicles, lure Zhou Fangchun into the roadside bushes, and then subdue her.
After all, even the fiercest woman wouldn't dare to assault a police officer.
Chen Xue thought the plan was foolproof, but logically, their rented house was not far from here, and it wouldn't take her lover so long to take Zhou Fangchun there and back.
"Could something have happened?" Chen Xue was worried that her lover might be impersonating a police officer and get caught by real police, which could land him in jail.
Zhou Jian'an glanced at his watch. He was wearing a gold Rolex. He had heard that when you're down on your luck, a Rolex can be used as cash; that's the rule in the underworld.
Fearing something might happen to him, Zhou Jian'an simply bought several Rolex watches to carry with him, just in case.
“How could a man as big as him not be able to control a woman? What could possibly happen! Alright, here’s two thousand yuan, it’s my deposit for you. Keep an eye on her, gag her with a cloth so she can’t speak, but don’t let her go either. As long as you can hold her off for half a month, I’ll give you the rest of the money in full.”
Zhou Jian'an only intended to detain Zhou Fangchun for half a month. After half a month, he had already smuggled himself to Hong Kong, and the affairs on the mainland were no longer his concern.
If Zhou Fangchun dared to abandon him, he should stay and be the scapegoat. With the addition of the Bao family and their relatives, and so many prisoners, Zhou Jian'an's crimes could be completely cleared.
Chen Xue felt something was off, but two thousand yuan was indeed a lot of money.
"Boss Zhou, where are you going?"
Zhou Jian'an shoved Zhou Chufei into the car, and then put several black leather bags and a few gold watches into the trunk.
Like Zhou Fangchun, he learned to drive and bought a used car, but he was smarter than Zhou Fangchun; he used a fake license plate on the car.
He also obtained a fake ID card and several letters of introduction.
He is currently a university professor and was driving to Guangdong Province for an exchange program. He has a university degree and a legitimate employer, making him more convincing than Zhou Fangchun.
Zhou Jian'an drove south without any obstacles.
Zhou Chufei hadn't seen Jiang Meifeng for several days and missed his grandmother. "Dad, when is Grandma going?"
Zhou Jian'an reassured her, "I've paid the money, and your grandma will be out in a few days. Let's go first and meet her there."
Zhou Chufei felt that he wouldn't be so kind. Jiang Meifeng didn't know many characters, and she relied on Zhou Chufei to read the road signs when she went out to take the train. Zhou Jian'an left.
How could an old woman who had never traveled far from home possibly go from Beijing to Guangdong, find a contact in Guangdong, and successfully board a ship to the port city?
Zhou Chufei knew he would never see his grandmother again.
He was unhappy and wanted to cry, but Zhou Jian'an smiled indifferently and said, "If you miss your grandma so much, you can go down and keep him company."
Zhou Chufei immediately fell silent.
He offended Shu Hui and chose to live with Zhou Jian'an. It was already quite good that Zhou Jian'an would take him with him when he ran away. Besides, Hong Kong is paradise. It's a good thing to go to paradise and enjoy life. Why wouldn't he go?
If he can't see his grandma, he can't see her. Just pretend his grandma is dead. It won't affect his enjoyment of life anyway.
Having figured this out, Zhou Chufei fastened his seatbelt.
It took Zhou Jian'an three whole days to reach Guangzhou. He barely slept a full night along the way and even got lost once, but he never stopped. He relied on the map and his own words to ask for directions until he finally arrived in Guangzhou.
Guangzhou and Beijing are more than 2,000 kilometers apart, making it difficult for the Beijing police to reach Guangzhou. Zhou Jian'an finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Yu naturally couldn't let them go. She informed the police of their whereabouts. Seeing that they couldn't catch up with them, the police contacted the Suicheng police, hoping to intercept them at the Suicheng dock.
Chu Yu was still not at ease, so he contacted Li Jinchao and Chen Shunan, instructing them to go to Gangcheng and Suicheng and keep watch at the smuggling docks. If they saw Zhou Fangchun and Zhou Jianan, they should try to detain them and prevent them from leaving Suicheng.
Li Jinchao and Chen Shunan were Dai Donglin's bodyguards. The two were originally underlings in a gang, but fighting and killing couldn't last long. As they got older, they wanted to do something more stable. After Dai Donglin went to Hong Kong, they became his bodyguards through introductions from others.
Dai Donglin is a developer, and he usually has to deal with a variety of issues. When gangs cause trouble, they are always the first to step forward. Both of them have high salaries, and with all their food and drink expenses covered, they can still send tens of thousands of yuan back to their hometown in the mainland every year.
They are all satisfied with the current situation.
Chu Yu was Dai Donglin's lifeline. They had been in contact with Chu Yu for over a month and had a good impression of her. They were willing to serve her and agreed: "We will definitely help Miss Zhou get things done."
The two waited at the dock for three whole days, but no one came.
Chen Shunan, smoking a cigarette with blurry eyes, struck up a conversation with Li Jinchao: "Do you think we might have gotten the wrong dock?"
"No doubt about it, this is the dock with the most illegal immigrants. And look at those boats, they're supposed to be fishing boats, but they don't even have fishing nets. Let's wait a bit longer, the fish will definitely get caught in the net."
Li Jinchao remained calm, and Chen Shunan could only wait patiently. On the third night, Chen Shunan was dozing off when Li Jinchao suddenly shook him awake.
"Where are the photos?"
