Chapter 193, Qinghe Lane, also had foreshadowing.
This novel is written from the perspectives of Cheng Sangsang and Xu Bai.
A story of a domineering CEO who chases and entangles with his love interest, filled with all sorts of heart-wrenching moments.
Most of the characters are flat backgrounds.
For example, she was just a stepsister who was kicked out, while her brothers wrote two or three thousand words about her, and some only mentioned her in a sentence.
Xu Bai, the richest man in Hong Kong and the protagonist's uncle, died within the first few chapters of the story.
...He was attacked during a long-haul flight and his body was never recovered.
Therefore, in the current timeline, Koike... is already dead.
"Tu Xiaomao...why is your face so pale?"
Cheng Sangsang panicked: "Forget it, forget it, I won't ask anymore!"
Tu Yao was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "...Sang Sang, do you believe in the butterfly effect?"
"...You believe me, right?"
"And you?"
"...I believe it too."
Someone like Koike must have a lot of good fortune.
If she didn't know that someone in this world was vying for her destiny, she would think it was an accident.
But now, she is almost certain that Xiaochi's death in the original story must be related to Bai Chumeng and the people behind her.
In this fictional world, she is the only variable.
During this time, Xiaochi stayed with her the whole time.
So could it be because of her that Koike inadvertently avoided that ending?
Even if we avoid it the first time, will there be a second time?
Tu Yao lowered her head and whispered, "So, Sang Sang, I'm actually not angry."
"...I'm a little scared afterwards."
Cheng Sangsang didn't quite understand these words, but she could sense the panic hidden beneath Tu Yao's seemingly calm expression.
She angrily pressed the power off button!
"You stinky Xu Bai, don't think I can't see through you. He's trying to plead for his uncle!"
"I'm not going to talk to him!"
"So what if we're the richest family? My uncle will work hard and strive to make our family the richest in the port city next year!"
Tu Yao turned her head and couldn't help but laugh. If it went on like this for 1,800 chapters, it would be quite fun.
“Tu Xiaomao, why don’t we not transfer the household registration? You can still be my sister. When our family becomes the richest, we’ll make Xu Bai and his uncle furious.”
Tu Yao turned around again, looking troubled: "But my grandmother could also try to become the richest woman in Yanjing."
After the family reunion, Madam Jiang seemed to be full of energy, while the entire group was in a state of utter despair for the past two days.
Cheng Sangsang paused for a moment, then said, "...That's true."
Tu Yao patted her, "Alright, let's get down to business!"
...No matter what, she must deal with Bai Chumeng as soon as possible, and then find out who the person behind Bai Chumeng really is.
The car drove all the way to the suburbs.
The suburbs of the port city are not suburbs in the true sense. After the division, the metropolitan area accounts for one-fifth of the total area, and the remaining four-fifths are collectively referred to as "suburbs".
But on this vast land, Cheng Sangsang's investments are spread almost everywhere.
And they picked out all the less desirable locations in the suburbs.
Along the way, I saw a restaurant located a hundred meters away from a large garbage dump, a health center next to a disco, and an upscale teahouse near a slaughterhouse...
Tu Yao was already quite calm about the fact that her destination was an exhibition hall next to a crematorium.
However, it's quite noticeable that the further you drive in, the older the facilities along the road become.
Suddenly, Tu Yao seemed to see something, paused for a moment, and quickly turned around.
Across the river, on the other side, was a car that seemed to have wandered in by mistake.
A row of tall, strong men with fierce expressions stood beside the car.
Suddenly, someone grabbed the man inside the car through the window, opened the car door, dragged him, and beat him—the movements were swift and practiced.
The middle-aged man on the ground seemed to be begging for mercy incessantly, but to no avail.
His wallet and car keys were quickly stolen.
Several men cheered and drove away in the car, while the man lying on the ground struggled to his feet and limped away.
"Tu Xiaomao, we're almost there!"
Tu Yao immediately snapped back to reality, her forehead already covered in a layer of cold sweat.
...
The car stopped in front of a building.
After the manager ran away, Cheng Sangsang's shops were basically all empty.
She rummaged through her bag and pulled out a bunch of keys, found the one for the exhibition hall, and opened the door.
"Tu Xiaomao, this exhibition hall has two floors, a total of 600 square meters, and there is also a 50-square-meter partition."
The two-story exhibition hall was completely empty, except for that one cubicle where you could hide something.
The two quickly arrived at the westernmost part of the second floor and pushed open a small door with force.
Instantly, a pungent musty smell hit me!
"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"
Cheng Sangsang quickly covered her nose: "It stinks!"
She struggled to open her eyes, and the next second, she was so shocked by the sight before her that she was speechless.
After a long pause, "...Tu...Tu Xiao Mao! It really is there!"
The roughly 50-square-meter room was piled high with stacks of boards, bricks, and steel bars.
Tu Yao tried her best to put the scene she had just witnessed out of her mind.
Upon closer inspection, a layer of grayish-white material was visible on the board, and the musty smell was emanating from there.
Some of the bricks and stones were broken at one corner, while others were covered in cracks.
Even worse, it broke in the middle!
It's obviously made of inferior materials.
If it's here, then it must be in other shops too!
Cheng Sangsang stared blankly at the scene, going through all the information in her mind.
So... Bai Chumeng not only replaced the normal building materials, causing the collapse, but also secretly transported the remaining substandard materials to her place!
Once the official announcement is made and the investigation and indictment phase begins, these will be solid evidence!
She could be convicted on the spot!
Cheng Sangsang's hands were shaking.
If Tu Yao hadn't thought of this last night, she would still be being led by the nose by the false information spread by Bai Chumeng.
She dared not think any further about what kind of situation awaited her.
Cheng Sangsang hurriedly prepared to contact someone: "No, I have to get rid of these things quickly."
But as soon as she touched her phone, she suddenly froze.
"Tu Xiaomao, it's too late, isn't it..."
...
The seaport had dozens of cargo ships moored at sea.
Bai Chumeng looked at the sea with a sullen face: "Although it is just a temporary spot check, Uncle Tiandao, does this scene look like it did ten years ago?"
Ten years ago, due to the replanning of shipping routes and adjustments to several freight indicators, the sea was almost entirely filled with Bai family ships.
The butler glanced at the sea, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.
His mistress was obsessed with the Bai family and power; the Bai family was like a carrot dangling in front of her.
He reminded her, "Miss, I just received news that Miss Cheng and Tu Yao returned to Hong Kong last night."
"I boarded...the Xu family's private jet."
“Not surprising.” Bai Chumeng sneered: “The Xu family went to great lengths to submit a shipping strategy to target me in order to avenge that idiot Cheng Sangsang. It’s just a private jet. There’s nothing to be surprised about.”
"But Uncle Tiandao, I've stirred up trouble for ten years, and these two idiots are still together. Tu Yao and Tu Chaoxi have also returned to their original positions!"
Does this mean that all her efforts over the years have been in vain?
No, absolutely not.
Bai Chumeng murmured, "...At least Cheng Sangsang, she can't turn things around."
"Her uncle's investigation team is still investigating the false information I released. She has no idea that I had already transferred the remaining materials to her properties long ago."
Even if we guessed it, processing so many materials would be time-consuming and laborious, and would cause quite a stir.
"With her stupid brain, it would be hilarious if she actually carried things out openly and in public."
They can catch them in the act.
In short, she had cut off both her future and her escape routes completely.
...Hopefully that idiot won't cry too much then.
Bai Chumeng looked at the cargo ship on the sea again.
"Could you arrange a meeting with Xu Feng to discuss the current situation and whether our original plan can still be implemented?"
...
On the other side, Cheng Sangsang silently put away her phone.
Moving the items out now would be tantamount to openly telling everyone that she has a guilty conscience and is in a hurry to sell the stolen goods.
But... how should we deal with these materials?
Cheng Sangsang turned her head and saw that Tu Yao had squatted on the ground at some point, staring motionlessly at a moldy wooden board in front of her.
"Tu Xiao..."
Before she could finish speaking, Tu Yao suddenly looked up and said, "Sang Sang, I remember Xiao Bai also mentioned that..."
"There have been many fights in Qinghe Lane, haven't there?"
