"Just close the door?" Du Can never expected Qin Zijin to make such a decision.
Now the store’s daily turnover can reach tens of thousands.
For such a good business, it would be a huge loss if it is closed for one day.
Moreover, many customers come here specifically not just to eat, but more for the store’s special drinks and wine.
"Do you want to reconsider it? Actually, it's not impossible to open the store and only sell alcohol." Du Can was a little hesitant.
"The New Year is almost here, so let's just give everyone a holiday. Salaries will be paid as usual, so go back to the store and tell them." Qin Zijin waved his hand without much hesitation.
Seeing that Qin Zijin had made up his mind, Du Can had no choice but to nod and agree.
It’s almost the end of December, and the Chinese New Year is indeed not far away.
However, Du Can could imagine that if the diners in the restaurant knew the news, they would probably cry.
"Just go and participate in the competition with peace of mind. Tell me if you need anything. I will fully support you. Apart from people, do you have any other requirements?" Qin Zijin saw that Du Can was hesitant to speak, and knew that he probably had other things to say, so he simply asked first.
Du Can was a little embarrassed. "It's nothing, actually. I just participated in this kind of competition. Most chefs have their own special knives. I have been using the ones from the store these days. Back then..."
"Oh, then you go back first. I'll ask Tang Shen to deliver the knives to you tomorrow." Qin Zijin immediately understood.
Du Can immediately breathed a sigh of relief, said hello and turned to leave.
"Guo Zhengtao just sent back a message that Zhang Yanqing went to a place where the family's surname is Cheng. He is now looking for someone to help investigate the family's background. I guess there will be news later." After Du Can left, Tang Can lowered his voice and told Qin Zijin everything Guo Zhengtao saw.
Qin Zijin couldn't help but frown. She had dealt with people with the surname Cheng many times.
After thinking for a moment, he asked Tang Can, "Do you think it's possible that this has something to do with Officer Cheng? Give him a call and ask if he knows the person at that address."
Tang Shen thought about it and felt that it made sense.
He went downstairs to make a phone call, but Zhang Yanqing happened to be downstairs. Tang Can glanced at her and went out silently.
Zhang Yanqing's eyes lit up as he watched Tang Shen leave. He tiptoed up to the second floor, came to the door of Qin Zijin's room, and knocked. "Madam, can I come in?"
Qin Zijin was a little surprised, but still let the person in.
Zhang Yanqing stood aside nervously, not daring to look at Qin Zijin.
She looks like an honest rural woman. Who would have thought that she is actually guilty of so many crimes?
Qin Zijin looked at her for a while before speaking, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
"Madam, I just saw my husband go out. I thought you might need my care, so I came to see you." Zhang Yanqing said very humbly.
"Then you wait outside. I'll call you when I need you. The child is sleeping now, and I don't have anything for you to do for me." Qin Zijin naturally didn't want Zhang Yanqing to come into contact with Tang Siwan, so he found an excuse and sent him out.
Zhang Yanqing did not suspect anything because the child was indeed sleeping.
She went out obediently and stood guard at the door.
Qin Zijin got up to eat.
After eating and drinking, Tang Shen also came back.
Seeing Zhang Yanqing guarding the door, he was a little surprised, but he just nodded and pushed the door open and entered the room.
Zhang Yanqing felt lost again.
Cheng Zhihui and his team also took action.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Yanxun left on time.
Only Bai Yan and her two children were left at home, at least that was what it seemed to outsiders.
In fact, the children had been secretly moved last night, and the two children in the room were just covered by a small quilt.
Time passes by every second.
Zhang Yanqing continued to disguise himself at Qin Zijin's house. Cheng Zhihui's men arrived outside Gu's house early and waited until late at night before taking action.
They had no idea that the Gu family was now a huge trap, waiting for them to fall into it.
It was soon night. Qin Zijin couldn't sleep even after eating. He was a little worried about the situation on Bai Yan's side. After confirming again and again that everything was arranged and the two children were well at Gu Niansheng's home, he finally felt relieved.
It was two o'clock in the morning, everything was quiet, and everyone had fallen asleep.
The same thing happened to the Gu family at this time. Even Bai Yan, who had been feeling uneasy, couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
A figure suddenly appeared in the night, then quickly came to the door of Gu's house, opened the door, and disappeared into the night again.
Seeing this, the people outside the door knew that the time to act had come and they all took action.
A van was soon driven to the gate of the Gu family.
Several people entered the house under the cover of night and went straight to the room where the child lived.
Cheng Yuchen was also hiding in the night at this time. When he saw this scene, his face looked a little ugly.
Seeing that the other party was so familiar with Gu Yanxun's family, it was clear that Zhang Yanqing had definitely sold out the Gu family completely.
However, thinking of the call from Tang Shen during the day, Cheng Yuchen became silent again.
If this matter really involves the Cheng family, it will be difficult to resolve.
Moreover, the mastermind behind the scenes will definitely not take action personally. Those who take action are only his subordinates. This time, when the net is closed, only some small shrimps can be caught. The real big sharks cannot be caught. He always feels a little unwilling in his heart.
But now is not the time to think about this.
Soon the group arrived at Bai Yan's room and opened the door skillfully.
He didn't notice that something was wrong with the child, so he picked up two blankets and quickly left.
Cheng Yuchen did not stop them. He waited until they left the Gu family's gate and got into the car before ordering his men to follow them.
As a result, the group went straight to the South Bank Pier before stopping.
Cheng Yuchen felt something was wrong when he saw this, and he immediately ordered his men to arrest the man.
A large number of police officers were dispatched this time, and they had formed a siege. Seeing that group of people get out of the car, meet another group of people, and hand the child over, everyone immediately took action.
"Are you kidding me?" A man with a fat face took the quilt, lifted it up and saw only a small quilt with floral patterns. He immediately became furious.
"What?" Cheng Zhihui's men were a little stunned. They subconsciously moved closer and realized that what they brought out were just two quilts. How could they bring a child?
At this moment, a strong light suddenly shone towards them, and at the same time, a series of sharp voices rang out: "Don't move! You are surrounded!"
