Siheyuan: Pretend to be a Pig and Eat the Tiger

Fan Jinyou only wanted to make money and didn't care whether he could succeed or not. Knowing what happened to Bang Geng, he had long lost faith in Tao Wei and didn't want to get involved in Tao Wei's affairs. He just wanted to make a few quick bucks and then return to China, never to waste his life again!

As for taking revenge on He Yuzhu and Chen Xueru, he didn't want to. At the time, he was unaware of the situation after fleeing the border province. After arriving in Hong Kong, he learned about He Yuzhu's actions and knew that he would never have the chance in this lifetime!

It would be better to take advantage of this opportunity to make a quick buck from a sucker, then return to the capital, find a partner, and live a carefree life for a few days. When the gap between you and your enemy is not too large, you can still struggle. But if your enemy is too strong, so strong that you despair, then give up!
"What the hell? It's all gone so quickly? Fan Jinyou, so you don't care if it's not your money, huh? You've spent 20,000 Hong Kong dollars in less than a week?"

Tao Wei stared at Fan Jinyou in disbelief. Was this son of a bitch spending money so recklessly? Or was he just wasting his son's money on women? His body reeked of cosmetics; it was truly indescribable!

"Brother Tao, you can't say that. I had to find people, hire paparazzi, and even ask the gangster Xiao Sa for help. Otherwise, they can't work for free, right?"

"Twenty thousand Hong Kong dollars seems like a lot, but there are too many people involved. Otherwise, how did they dig up Gao Ling's father? How did He's Entertainment get rid of its legal director?"

"Brother Tao, Hong Kong is a money-driven society. There are no human relationships here. If you have money, you're the boss. If you don't have money, you're not even worth a dog. Nobody will even acknowledge you!"

"He Yuzhu is the most untouchable figure in the triad. To use their people, you must offer them a tempting sum of money. Otherwise, they won't take the risk. You understand, right?"

Fan Jinyou won't act until he sees the benefits; to put it simply, he's all for nothing if he's not paid, so don't make me do any work. Who would dare to monitor a ruthless person like He Yuzhu?

Tao Wei wished he could punch this guy's head off, but Fan Jinyou had a grudge against He Yuzhu, and if he were discovered, he would definitely be a perfect scapegoat. Therefore, he couldn't give up on this bastard for the time being!
"Go to the finance department and withdraw HKD 100,000. If there's another mistake this time, be prepared to sink at sea. My money wasn't wasted!"

"Fan Jinyou, we have a common enemy, so I hope we can be serious. This is a very critical moment!"

Tao Wei had to admit what Fan Jinyou said: money was indeed needed here, and with enough money, lives were not an issue!
However, you have to be able to afford it. Of course, if this kind of thing crosses the line, most people won't go to such extremes. That's all!

"Don't worry, as long as the money is in place, I guarantee things won't go wrong. People in this business value their reputation above all else, you know that!"

Fan Jinyou was overjoyed. 100,000 Hong Kong dollars is more than 90,000 RMB. With his short-term savings, he could exchange it for about 100,000 RMB!

A room in a traditional courtyard house in Beijing costs only two or three thousand yuan. As long as you can take this money and return to Beijing smoothly, you won't have any problems with food, drink, or shelter for the rest of your life. It's better to go back than to live a precarious life here!

Indeed, Fan Jinyou had long harbored the idea of ​​returning to the capital. Now that Tao Wei had reached a critical moment, his struggle with He Yuzhu must have come to an end. Since he didn't have that much deep hatred for He Yuzhu, why not use He Yuzhu to get rid of Tao Wei and go back?

What Tao Wei didn't know was that the moment Fan Jinyou heard about the HK$100,000 offer, he was ready to betray his plan to He Yuzhu and return to Beijing, refusing to play along with him anymore! Fan Jinyou was never a gentleman to begin with. After hearing about Bang Geng's plight, he realized that he and Bang Geng were both pawns in Tao Wei's hands, pawns that could be discarded at any time. Rather than following him down a dark path, it was better to break away decisively!

Tao Wei believed that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, but Fan Jinyou did not. Especially after learning about He Yuzhu's strength, he lost all desire for revenge and only wanted to live a peaceful life!

After leaving Tao Investment with the money, Fan Jinyou went to his residence, took out the mobile phone he had prepared in advance, and called Xu Damao, requesting to see He Yuzhu!
It was fate, really. Xu Damao was a regular at bars. One time, he met Fan Jinyou while drinking. After they were introduced, Fan Jinyou realized that Fan Jinyou was He Yuzhu's childhood friend. You could say that he turned misfortune into blessing!
Xu Damao went to a bar and acted arrogantly. Some gangsters couldn't stand it and wanted to teach him a lesson. Xu Damao then brought up He Yuzhu, and the thugs naturally didn't dare to offend someone from the high society of Hong Kong Island, so they immediately shut up!
Of course, this is also because Xu Damao is serving as the general manager of He's Entertainment and is frequently in the newspapers, making it easy to find out. Otherwise, a single statement would certainly not be convincing!

It was under these circumstances that Fan Jinyou met Xu Damao. At the same time, he told him that he came from Beijing. The two, being from the same hometown, were moved to tears and started to get in touch!

"Brother Zhu, there's someone named Fan Jinyou who wants to meet you. He's supposedly an old acquaintance of yours. Do you have time?"

Xu Damao thought about it and, considering Fan Jinyou's generosity, he still called He Yuzhu. Of course, whether or not he met with him was beyond his control!
"Fan Jinyou? Location!"

"Royal Hotel, Room 103, 3 PM!"

"understood!"

He Yuzhu hung up the phone and looked at Chen Xueru in surprise. Cai Qiuyue didn't know Fan Jinyou, but Chen Xueru did. Fan Jinyou's feud with him was also because of Chen Xueru!
"Heh, Fan Jinyou actually took the initiative to meet with you? Does he want to surrender?"

Chen Xueru understood He Yuzhu's meaning perfectly well; Fan Jinyou's toad-like ambition had inadvertently given her an opportunity!
Of course, since He Yuzhu slept with her, he naturally had to bear Fan Jinyou's resentment. "My bed isn't so easy to climb into, okay?"
"Who knows? What I'm curious about is how Fan Jinyou and Xu Damao met. These two don't seem to have any connection, do they?"

He Yuzhu looked at the cell phone with great interest. Xu Damao and Fan Jinyou couldn't possibly know each other. Could it be that these two had some ulterior motive? Interesting!
"Hmph, don't you know what's wrong with Xu Damao? Besides those places, how else could the two of them have met? It's not like Xu Damao would side with Tao Wei to deal with you, is it?"

Cai Qiuyue smiled disdainfully. Nine out of ten men are lustful. He Yuzhu has high standards for women. At the very least, they must be top-notch in appearance and figure. Xu Damao is just indiscriminate in his pursuit of women. Fan Jinyou is not much different!

"Ahem, let's go, Comrade Chen Xueru. You should also go and see the man who couldn't win your heart back then. To kill someone, you have to destroy their spirit. This is the first time we've met since this kid joined Tao Wei's side. Let's see how cunning he is!"

He Yuzhu sensed something was amiss in Cai Qiuyue's words and immediately wanted to go see what was going on. He had brought Chen Xueru along so she could observe Fan Jinyou's every move; Chen Xueru knew Fan Jinyou better than he did—that was a fact! (End of Chapter)
