Chapter 199 Some Boomerangs
At one o'clock in the morning, Tu Yao felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders.
After reviewing everything and confirming that no steps had been missed, I turned around.
"Koike, we should go back."
Xu Chi stared at her intently, and she showed absolutely no sign of anger.
"...Is this all you need to do?"
As long as he remembers his promise to live to a ripe old age together, they can make up.
Tu Yao smiled and nodded: "That's fine."
Xu Chi was taken aback.
A piece of information suddenly flashed through his mind, but he couldn't grasp it in time; it vanished in an instant.
After a few seconds of silence, Xu Chi paused, then gave a faint smile: "...Are you tired?"
"Is there anything I can do for you next?"
He arrived early and witnessed the entire meticulous preparation for tonight's event.
It's obvious that after all the groundwork, what's missing is a complete explosion.
Tu Yao immediately shook her head: "No need."
"Xiao Chi, you can't interfere, and neither can I. If Xiao Bai finds out, you have to tell him not to help."
"The next step is for Sangsang to do."
Xu Chi's eyes flickered slightly.
Tu Yao turned her head to look at him, her eyes bright and sparkling in the darkness.
"Xiao Chi, this is a matter between Sang Sang and Bai Chu Meng. Sang Sang should handle the aftermath herself and bring it to a close so that she will have no regrets."
and……
She remembered that the original book was called "The All-Round Heiress Bravely Enters the Entertainment Industry".
Cheng Sangsang was originally meant to be a dazzling "all-rounder".
Or, it will become increasingly dazzling.
...
On the other hand, the phrase "killing four birds with one stone" was quite a shock to Lao Cheng.
He glanced at the rearview mirror in surprise.
Cheng Sangsang remained remarkably calm, and after speaking, she urged, "Uncle, drive faster!"
"Tu Xiaomao gave me a task, and I need to hurry up and do it."
Old Cheng was even more surprised.
"A mission? Are you going to do it?"
“Of course!” Cheng Sangsang regained her spirits and leaned back: “Tu Xiaomao said that we all grow up slowly.”
"Although it was her idea, I did it well, which means I've grown up a little!"
"Tu Xiaomao said that doing is harder than thinking, and I am a practitioner."
"Tu Xiaomao also said that we should attack by surprise!"
...
For a while, Lao Cheng's ears were filled with Tu Xiaomao's nagging.
As soon as the car stopped, Cheng Sangsang rushed inside like the wind, took out her laptop, and started typing away.
Two hours later, I painstakingly typed out a concise announcement of 800 words.
It just so happened that the Hong Kong Morning Post and the Qinghe Lane riot each occupied two separate pages.
"Lost and Found?"
The next morning, Bai Chumeng scanned it several times, but in the end, she couldn't help but chuckle.
"That idiot! I thought she'd learned her lesson, but she's still just as stupid!"
They really intend to go looking for the remaining materials openly and honestly.
This piece is quite well-written. The first half explains that the materials at the film and television base were replaced, and the second half describes the current progress of the investigation.
It was pointed out that some building materials had not yet been sold off and were still hidden in the port city.
However, given her clumsy appearance, she would struggle to write even a hundred words, so this article was probably ghostwritten.
The accident investigation results from Yanjing are coming out soon, and it seems Cheng Sangsang is really anxious.
"...Since she wants to find it, let's help her out."
Bai Chumeng stood up: "Uncle Tiandao, go find a few reporters from the Legal Daily and have them report on some of Cheng Sangsang's shops."
Cheng Sangsang kept saying she was looking for inferior materials, but the shop under her name turned out to be hiding them. Little did she know how much backlash this would cause.
"After ten years of friendship, I'll teach her one last lesson, to show her what it means to lift a rock only to drop it on your own foot."
The butler smiled slightly: "Yes, Miss, I'll go right away."
Bai Chumeng raised an eyebrow, "I'll go and report to Grandpa too."
"After today, the Cheng family is finished."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he caught a glimpse of a group of servants gathered along the first-floor corridor.
She looked displeased: "What are you talking about?"
The servants immediately fell silent, and the one standing at the front quickly explained, "Miss, the morning paper said that there was a riot in Qinghe Lane last night, and those gangsters robbed a million worth of goods."
"Qinghe Lane?"
Bai Chumeng picked up the newspaper, flipped it over, and glanced at it.
The maid quickly added, "But the police arrested everyone in the middle of the night, so everything is fine now."
Bai Chumeng frowned. Qinghe Lane hadn't been peaceful in the past few years, with riots breaking out from time to time, so it wasn't surprising.
She put down the newspaper and went upstairs.
"...Alright, alright, everyone go about your own business, stop crowding around here."
A young girl couldn't help but nudge her companion as they walked and talked.
"Hey, there's more. The police station just issued a notice saying they'll order those people to compensate for the losses."
"Loss? What loss?"
"Of course it's those surveillance cameras, streetlights and stuff. They said they've already arranged for repairmen to go over there."
“We have to compensate them. I heard that several shops have been affected. Those people are afraid of being caught on camera, so they caused damage along the way.”
"What bad luck!"
...
Along the road leading to Qinghe Lane, several groups of workers arrived one after another, working in pairs to carry out repairs along the road.
While repairing the road, he couldn't help but curse: "These people are getting more and more lawless. They've left no streetlights or surveillance cameras on this nearly six-kilometer stretch of road!"
"The Bai family shipyard is just a few hundred meters away!"
"That's right, there are several surveillance cameras that need to be replaced near the Bai family's open-air parking lot. We need to send more people."
"Okay, I'll go with Lao Zhao first!"
As they spoke, two people walked over, and as soon as they got close, a pungent musty smell hit them!
The two immediately covered their noses!
"What is that? It smells terrible!"
In the open-air parking lot in front of us, there were more than a dozen large trucks, all covered with thick waterproof tarpaulins.
"...It seemed to have come out of the car."
One of the workers in front couldn't resist peeking through a corner of the window, and immediately backed away!
"Oh my goodness! This wooden board is almost moldy!"
At this moment, two reporters walked back from inside the banyan tree.
They received a tip this morning that the materials Cheng Sangsang was looking for were hidden at an exhibition under her name, but after searching for a long time, they found nothing.
Just as I was about to call a taxi and leave, I suddenly heard a commotion.
The reporters' keen professional instincts made them immediately stop what they were doing and instinctively walk over.
"What...what are you talking about?!"
As soon as I asked the question, I looked up and saw a truckload of moldy wooden planks.
The two reporters looked at each other in bewilderment, and the next second, they immediately went to check the other trucks!
A few minutes later, piles of materials were spread out on the ground.
Moldy wooden boards, steel bars of varying sizes, and some obviously substandard cement...
The reporters gasped in unison. No way…they found the substandard materials the Cheng family was looking for in the Bai family's truck?!
...
Cheng Sangsang didn't sleep all night. As soon as the news came from Baiyang Road, she couldn't wait to run next door.
Just as I was about to knock on the door, my phone rang.
"You stinky Xu Bai, what is it!"
Xu Bai complained angrily on the other end of the phone: "Little Curly, what's going on? You guys didn't take me with you when you did something important yesterday!"
"If my uncle hadn't told me, were you and my older sister planning to keep it from me forever?!"
"Don't accuse me wrongly. Tu Xiaomao hasn't gotten up yet. She only got home at two o'clock yesterday. I was planning to tell you all at once after she got up!"
“I see…” Xu Bai glanced at the person opposite him: “But my uncle got up a long time ago.”
...No, it looks like he hasn't slept all night.
At his desk, Xu Chi held a fountain pen, his expression unreadable, lost in thought.
With a "click," Tu Yao's door opened.
Cheng Sangsang didn't have time to deal with Xu Bai anymore. She quickly handed him the newspaper and recounted in detail what had happened that morning.
"Tu Xiaomao, just as you guessed, as soon as I released the announcement, Bai Chumeng anonymously reported it to the reporters!"
Tu Yao took the newspaper and read it carefully from beginning to end. She first praised, "Sang Sang, it's very well written. It's concise and easy to understand."
Cheng Sangsang's eyes lit up instantly, "Really...really!"
"right!"
"Tu Xiaomao, I have another question."
"The reporter has already found the materials regarding our relocation to Baiyang Road."
The smoother things went, the more Cheng Sangsang feared making a mistake.
"Would they... risk offending the Bai family by exposing themselves?"
Tu Yao nodded. "Of course."
"They went to find those materials as soon as they received the report, which means they were already prepared to offend the Cheng family."
"Now it's just a change of direction, turning it into offending the Bai family, there's no difference."
"Reporters are generally quite perceptive and should be able to connect this to the fact that it might be a business war between the Cheng and Bai families. It would be a shame not to write about such a big story."
Hearing this, Xu Bai felt that his older sister probably had a lot more to say, so he simply turned on speakerphone.
Cheng Sangsang breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."
"and……"
"And what?"
Tu Yao blinked: "Besides, aren't Hong Kong media different from mainland media? They dare to write anything."
When I turned on speakerphone, the sound suddenly became much louder.
Across from him, Xu Chi looked up and just happened to hear those words; his brow twitched instantly.
Sure enough, the next second...
"For example, the richest man in Hong Kong is destined to be lonely; he would have to offer incense for three consecutive months to find a girlfriend."
"For example, the richest man in Hong Kong is young but has a bad reputation."
Xu Chi: ...
Cheng Sangsang & Xu Bai: ...
