Chapter 388 The Fish Is Taking the Bait
"Boss, there are only two days left until the deadline. What should we do? At this rate, I'm afraid we won't be able to sneak in," Zhao Hu said, frowning.
"What's the rush? There are still two days left. Let's wait and see tomorrow. If it's still like this tomorrow night, then we'll just go in and not worry about anything else. After all, there's not much difference between what was there before and what was added later for consumers."
Zhao Hu looked at his boss and said tremblingly, "Boss, how much longer do we have to carry this thing? Can we leave it behind? I'm a little scared."
"What are you afraid of? You'll just be a skeleton when you die."
Zhao Hu stiffened slightly upon hearing this: "Brother, let's talk about it after I die. I really can't stand sleeping with a pile of bones for two nights in a row."
"Go away, go sleep outside, you coward!"
Zhao Hu felt like he'd been granted a pardon upon hearing this and left without looking back. If he'd known this job meant sleeping in the same room as a dead person, he definitely wouldn't have come. Besides, he'd been staying up all night for the past two days, practically a night owl, and hadn't even gone inside the room once. He had a bad feeling about this, but he didn't dare say anything, afraid of getting beaten up by the boss.
……
the next day.
They thought the gold-hunting saga would end quickly, but unexpectedly, even more people showed up. After some inquiries, they learned that the old man whose gold had been stolen by a bird the day before had returned home to find the bird gone again, carrying away his bracelet, worth as much as a house. This time, they only knew the bird had flown in this direction, but didn't know where it had landed.
The uncle doubled the reward money, and many people actually received money and food yesterday, which encouraged even more people to participate.
"Boss, what do we do? We have no chance at all. Look at all these people, how are we supposed to get in?"
Jiang Dongguo pondered for a moment and said, "Tonight, no matter how many people are there, we'll sneak over the wall and bury the bones in that empty spot in the northeast corner of the courtyard."
"Hey, that's what I've been waiting for. Whether this job goes through or not, we need to get this done first. I've been staking out this place for days, and who would have thought that something like this would happen in the end?"
The Yu family.
Early in the morning, Yu Lian, from her hotel several kilometers away, heard about the lively commotion here. She was utterly impressed by He Lin's methods.
After breakfast and finishing her work, she rushed home. When she arrived, the alleyway was packed with people, severely disrupting the lives of nearby residents. However, many of them had received compensation in kind, and seeing how generous the boss was, their resentment vanished, and they began helping to search for supplies.
When Yu Lian reached the door, she knocked on it using the same method they had agreed upon—three long knocks followed by one short one. Someone quickly opened the door.
"Boss, you've arrived."
Everyone was eating when they saw the boss arrive and quickly stood up to invite her to join them. Yu Lian waved her hand and declined, saying, "I've already eaten. Everyone, please continue eating. Don't worry about me. I just came to check on things. By the way, if you need any help, please call me immediately."
The leader patted his chest and said, "Boss, don't worry. Brother Zhuo is leading us. He's a very capable man. You don't need to fret. Brother Zhuo said these people definitely won't sit still any longer; it'll be over in the next couple of days."
One of the impatient young men asked, "Boss, boss, you said if this works out, you'll give us double our salary, is that true?"
Yu Lian looked at the young man, who appeared to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. His eagerness for the prize money reminded Yu Lian of herself when she first entered the workforce.
"Of course it's true. The boss would never lie."
After chatting for a bit, Zhuo Heng returned, carrying some daily necessities.
When Yu Lian arrived, Zhuo Heng called her aside. Yu Lian thought he was going to talk about that group of people, but instead he asked about Yu Xin.
"I heard that someone at their sales point has been pursuing her recently. I've looked into it, and his family background is a bit complicated; he's not a good match for her."
Yu Lian looked at Zhuo Heng with a strange expression, and after a long while, she finally let out a breath: "What do you mean?"
Zhuo Heng fell silent.
When the two had a falling out and even went to court, Yu Xin thought she would hate Zhuo Heng for the rest of her life. But who knew that as soon as the court hearing started, Zhuo Heng gave up his custody rights and went through legal procedures to give her custody of Xiao Youyou. He also voluntarily gave the mother and daughter several properties under his name and most of his assets.
Yu Xin did not refuse and gladly accepted them all.
Now, aside from matters concerning the child, the two basically have no contact or conversation. But it's clear to anyone with eyes that neither of them has moved on. However, as Yu Xin's older sister, Yu Lian knows very well—there's no possibility between them. It's a one-sided impossibility.
Zhuo Heng might still want to try, but Yu Xin's attitude was resolute. This was a unique trait of the Yu family—once they made a decision, nothing could change their mind.
"You don't want her to look for someone else?"
Zhuo Heng was silent for a moment: "No, I'm just worried that she's young and can't see people clearly, and that she might get scammed."
These words, spoken by Zhuo Heng, carried a distinctly ironic tone—after all, he was the culprit who had swindled Yu Xin out of her mind and body.
"Ha... Zhuo Heng, how did you feel the day you learned the truth?"
Zhuo Heng said thoughtfully, "I don't regret it. Although I was deceived, that belief is the greatest weapon that has supported me to this day. The sinner has received the punishment he deserved, but I haven't made amends for my mistakes yet, so I can't leave."
Yu Lian sneered, "Fine, don't ask me about Yu Xin anymore. Zhuo Heng, you should be glad I'm a philanthropist that you're still standing here today. Besides thanking Yu Xin, you should also thank my dad. From now on, we're just superior and subordinate. Don't talk about anything outside of work."
Her resolute words revealed her attitude. Zhuo Heng wasn't one to be tactless, so he naturally nodded in agreement and changed the subject, bringing up the matter at hand.
"The people I sent to keep an eye on them have spotted some activity, and they'll probably slip up tonight. Keep an eye on things tonight; I'll call you if needed. But there's one thing I need your opinion on—should we handle this privately, or should we have the police witness it?"
Yu Lian originally intended to handle the matter privately, but then she realized that if she did, this kind of thing would happen again. Dealing with a powerful figure like Rui Hui required public intervention.
"Contact the government beforehand. If they're short-staffed, transfer a few more people over."
"By the way, if possible, find a journalist with a good reputation in the industry."
Yu Lian only gave a few instructions, and Zhuo Heng understood what she meant.
"I know. Tonight, I'll just wait for the fish to bite."
