If that's the case, why bother with his incompetent rage?
"Green Pearl, continue!"
"Hmm! Those mysterious men in black, judging from their voices, sounded like eunuchs from the palace. Besides that, they also talked about how Zhao Hao would suffer a bad end and how they would acquire more assets from some big shot!"
Zhao Hao nodded slightly. This was probably all that Green Pearl could hear, remember, and express.
After all, these people, though corrupt and domineering, are not fools.
Some necessary secrets are still expressed using code names or slang. Therefore, Zhao Hao didn't care too much, since his scouts lying in wait on his roof already knew everything about He Miao's plans.
Meanwhile, their plans were disrupted by the maid's escape!
"Alright! Everyone, whether this is true or not, the truth will come out one day! He Miao, I have a question for you, do you dare to answer it!"
Feeling the disdainful looks from all the people, He Miao responded angrily.

Guards, bring my leader and mobilize troops to surround this restaurant.
The rest of you, some will stay behind to keep an eye on these people, and the rest will come back with me!
"I will obey the patriarch's command!"
Zhao Hao smiled slightly, but then noticed that Green Pearl had started trembling again.
Once they returned to the restaurant and instructed the staff to lock the doors and windows, Liu Tong immediately went up to ask them questions.
"Young Master Xiao, could it be that you intend to use Green Pearl to make some kind of exchange with He Miao?"
If not, why not kill him to appease the world? If not, why go to this thief's house in the dead of night to discuss it?
Please explain yourself, sir. I... truly do not understand what the chivalrous gentleman intends to do!
