Looking at Lin Qi walking ahead, Gu Qiang secretly tugged at Bai Rou's hand and winked at her.
Bai Rou glanced ahead, then slowed her pace: "What's wrong?"
Pointing to Gu Xing, Chu Jianshu, and the others who were moving things, Gu Qiang asked in a low voice, "What's going on here?"
Bai Rou was confused and looked at Gu Qiang, whose face looked bad: "Is this what I said Sun Shi and the others found? What?"
"Damn it," Gu Qiang cursed under his breath, though he was very angry. "These guys really know how to cause trouble."
I had already discovered it over there, and I was thinking of taking you away with the things after we dug them up in a couple of days, but who would have thought that Sun Shi would find out.”
"You mean this is where you found the thing?" Bai Rou looked ahead, then at Gu Qiang, thinking that this guy was really useless.
The location had already been discovered, yet Sun Shi was still able to find it.
But thinking about their purpose, Bai Rou frowned and asked, "Now that they've found out, we definitely won't get any of the stuff. What do you suggest we do?"
“Impossible, the stuff must be ours,” Gu Qiang said in a low voice, his eyes darting around. “Let’s go along with them for now, and then… like this… like this, understand?”
Hearing Gu Qiang's words, Bai Rou still felt that this wouldn't work and said with some worry, "Can this really work? Sun Shi and his group must have a lot of people, including people from Beijing. We are no match for them."
"Let's just forget about it. It's just a small amount of stuff, and it's hard to sell now. It's practically worthless, and we'd be easy to get caught. Our priority is to stay alive."
Gu Qiang snorted coldly: "Do you really think that's all the Rong family has? From what I've heard, there are other things here besides this one."
Besides, those two are right here. If they're both gone, who knows what will happen? It's up to us to decide.
After they take the things away, just do as I said. For the next two days, continue as before and don't give anything away, understand?
"Okay, let's keep up," Bai Rou said, and walked quickly forward.
Gu Qiang was also afraid of being discovered, so he quickly followed.
Bai Rou glanced at Gu Qiang, nodded to him, and ran to Lin Qi's side: "Brother Lin, where's Brother Sun? We can't do this without him."
Seeing the group of people in front of him stop, Lin Qi also stopped and pulled Bai Rou to hide in the bushes.
It was pitch black, and he had no idea where Sun Shi was.
Sun Shi is smart and has a good plan for everything he does, so Lin Qi is not worried about him getting into trouble.
Looking at Gu Qiang beside him, Lin Qi frowned and said, "You go over there and keep an eye on things. Xiao Rou and I will handle things here."
"Okay," Gu Qiang agreed through gritted teeth, shifting his gaze from Lin Qi's hand on Bai Rou's thigh to the other side.
After Gu Qiang left, Lin Qi pulled Bai Rou and walked to the other side for a while.
He patted Bai Rou's hand, then pointed to Gu Qiang's side: "You don't need to worry about Sun Shi. He's smarter than both of us."
But what did you two talk about just now with Gu Qiang? Don't tell me you're planning to betray me, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Rou's face paled, then her eyes reddened as she looked at Lin Qi: "Brother Lin, I don't want to hide it from you either."
After all, you know that Gu Qiang doesn't care about me. I did all this because I didn't want Jia Zhen to get involved.
As Bai Rou spoke, she suddenly grabbed Lin Qi's hand and said seriously, "Brother Lin, I have no other thoughts."
All I ask is that after all this is over, you spare my daughter. I'd even be willing to die with Gu Qiang. Would you grant me this one request?
Gu Jiazhen wasn't involved in this matter, so it wouldn't affect the other party much.
But if the higher-ups want to eliminate them completely, the three of them, and even those involved with Gu Ronghao and Gu Xing, will not escape.
Lin Qi stared into Bai Rou's eyes, trying to see the scheming within, but he only saw pleading and heartache for her daughter.
To be honest, Bai Rou had gotten along quite well with him during this time. As long as she didn't make any mistakes, he could ask his superiors for the right things and save her life.
Lin Qi grabbed Bai Rou's chin: "If I could rescue you from the Revolutionary Committee back then, I can also send you back and take your lives."
If you're obedient, I'll help you marry Gu Qiang after this is over. You can stay with me and give me a son. I can also help you keep Gu Jiazhen."
"Really, Brother Qi?" Bai Rou held Lin Qi's hand, her eyes filled with emotion. "Brother Qi, as long as you can help me get rid of Gu Qiang and protect Jia Zhen, I'm willing to do anything."
Looking at the obedient Bai Rou, Lin Qi lowered his hand from her chin: "Then tell me, what is Gu Qiang planning to do? What does he want?"
"He just wants to keep all that stuff for himself and is plotting to kill you all," Bai Rou said softly, looking at Lin Qi.
"From what Gu Qiang said, the Rong family's belongings are elsewhere besides this place, but no one else knows about this."
Brother Lin, you said that after this matter is settled, you should take a break for a while, and we'll figure out a way to get our hands on the stuff, then we can..."
"Are you telling the truth?" Lin Qi asked, his eyes lighting up as he grabbed Bai Rou's arm.
"Gu Qiang told me about this," Bai Rou said, pointing to the group of people moving boxes and raising an eyebrow.
"Brother Qi, you've been watching the whole time, and you saw the boxes they were carrying, but there were only a dozen or so."
The Rong family was once the richest family in the country, with assets all over the country. Even if they took most of it and donated most of it, do you think it's possible that they would only have this much left?
"My God, we've struck it rich!" Lin Qi exclaimed, giving Bai Rou a quick kiss on the cheek.
He wanted to shout excitedly, but considering the crowd over there, he grabbed Bai Rou's arm and laughed, "You really are my lucky star. Keep this a secret for now and don't tell Sun Shi."
When we get back, I'll step down, and we'll take those things and live a completely secluded life, with Jia Zhen, as a family. But if you...
Bai Rou was deeply moved and grabbed Lin Qi's arm: "I believe you. It's just that if Gu Qiang were still alive, he would definitely be exposed, he..."
As she spoke, she pointed to where Gu Qiang was, her eyes filled with worry.
Lin Qi glanced over there, his eyes filled with ruthlessness: "I'll handle this. Don't worry, no one can affect our good days."
This is the matter that needs your help. It's just a matter of whether you can bear to hurt your partner of so many years.
Meeting Lin Qi's probing gaze, Bai Rou's eyes were full of determination: "The moment he found Jia Zhen and used her, he and I lost all affection for each other."
"As long as you can guarantee that you won't hurt Jia Zhen, I'm willing to do anything. If you don't believe me, I'll do it right now."
Lin Qi knew how much Bai Rou cared for her daughter from the moment Bai Rou was willing to take her place with him.
Especially during this period, Bai Rou did whatever he asked, and was very obedient and compliant.
