Chapter 790: Chapter 790 The Great Swindler Flees in Fear of Crime
Feng Lan felt uncomfortable after hearing Wu Yue’s experiences, but she was firm in her heart that the man must have encountered some problem and left, which had caused Wu Yue to misunderstand for so many years.
Not knowing how to console her, she just walked over and gently hugged Wu Yue’s shoulders. Since meeting Wu Yue, it had been Wu Yue who took care of them. They had overlooked one thing, Wu Yue was also a woman who needed care and protection.
At that moment, Feng Lan swore that she would never let Wu Yue suffer any injustices again.
"Sister Wu Yue, I understand what you mean, don’t worry, I will take care of my own matters," Feng Lan whispered.
She knew herself well. Although she liked Xiang Yu, she would never end up like Wu Yue. Even if Xiang Yu left, she might just be sad for a short while, rather than being heartbroken for years and developing an aversion to men.
Upon leaving Wu Yue, she saw Xiang Yu and the others returning. She hurriedly walked up to them. Although she trusted in Xiang Yu’s abilities, if Xiang Yu didn’t prepare and was just idling every day, they couldn’t get rid of Zhou Zhengming.
"What are you guys doing every day?" Feng Lan asked somewhat accusingly.
Xiang Yu stood there, then answered very seriously and solemnly, "Observing the terrain and then investigating the opponent’s situation."
Upon hearing this, Feng Lan became anxious and then glared at him and said, "How can you be like this? We agreed on ten days, and now five days have passed, yet you’ve done nothing and just been fooling around every day."
Feng Lan was thinking about Wu Yue’s words. Could it be that Xiang Yu and the others were really unreliable? But based on her understanding of Xiang Yu, he shouldn’t be that kind of person.
When Xiang Yu saw that Feng Lan was angry, he coughed and said, "Alright, I’ll tell you the truth. Actually, we are training our bodies. Only with a strong physique can we have the energy to deal with them."
As soon as Feng Lan heard Xiang Yu still talking nonsense, she turned around and walked away. In five days, they would see if what Wu Yue had said was true or not.
Seeing her leave, Xiang Yu didn’t pay much attention and then returned to his own room with Tie Zhuzi and the others.
"Bro Yu, should we tell her our plan? She seems very anxious," Tie Zhuzi said.
"No plan, play it by ear," Xiang Yu said lazily from the couch.
Tie Zhuzi: "..."
While the three were chatting, Xiang Yu’s phone rang. It was Shi Jian calling.
"How are you guys doing?" Shi Jian asked with some concern.
After all, Xiang Yu’s identity was quite special at the moment. If people here knew that Xiang Yu was Shi Jian’s leader, they would immediately arrest Xiang Yu.
Though there wasn’t much interaction between Shi Jian and them, if Shi Jian’s men showed up here, it would immediately make them nervous.
All three forces were on guard against each other, watching quietly from the shadows.
"We’re safe, let’s talk business," Xiang Yu said directly.
"Through our investigation, Zhou Zhengming has two wives..."
"Get to the point," Xiang Yu cut him off. He wasn’t interested in knowing the opponent’s situation; he just wanted to take him down.
"Tomorrow night he will come to the city to see his second wife, she lives in..." Shi Jian informed Xiang Yu of Zhou Zhengming’s information regarding Guanyin Rock.
Zhou Zhengming was one of the triad leaders in the city, and Shi Jian had already investigated him, now he was just double-checking.
He knew Xiang Yu would eventually come back to deal with these people, so he had prepared well in advance.
After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yu then stood up and said, "Let’s go, it’s time to take action." ƒreewebɳovel.com
The three men arrived at Wu Yue’s office, where she was in a foul mood, and ignored Xiang Yu and the others as they entered.
"We’re going to drive off for a bit, give us back the car keys," Xiang Yu said bluntly.
Upon hearing that Xiang Yu was going to leave, Wu Yue’s mood significantly improved. Only then did she sit up straight, looking at Xiang Yu with disdain, "Have you had enough of freeloading, and now you’re planning to skip town?"
In Wu Yue’s eyes, Xiang Yu and his group were nothing but a bunch of con artists, not only scamming young girls but also cadging free meals and fond of talking big.
Claiming that they could handle everything within ten days was pure nonsense. She had been dealing with Zhou Zhengming for so long that she understood his character very well.
"Yeah, just short of the travel expenses," Xiang Yu said, unfazed as he looked back at Wu Yue.
Wu Yue scoffed with disdain, "Too late. If you had wanted to leave then, I would have given you money, but now, pfft!"
Now Wu Yue felt quite relieved inside. If Xiang Yu failed to kill Zhengming within five days, she planned to have the three men killed. But now that they offered to leave on their own, it saved her a lot of trouble.
And since Xiang Yu and his group were leaving on their own, Feng Lan wouldn’t blame her later.
Wu Yue took out the keys from a drawer and tossed them to Xiang Yu. Her message was clear, they should scram right now.
Xiang Yu didn’t want to waste more words with her. Until Zhou Zhengming was dealt with, anything said was in vain.
Just as Xiang Yu was about to walk out the door, Wu Yue suddenly said, "Don’t ever harass Lan again. If I find out you’re bothering her, no matter where you run, I’ll find you and tear you to pieces."
Xiang Yu ignored her and headed straight downstairs.
"This woman is really vicious, Brother Yu. We might as well just leave. Why bother helping her?" Tie Zhuzi grumbled, feeling rather dissatisfied.
Helping someone else while being talked down to made him feel like a thankless Lei Feng, though they were villains, not Lei Feng.
Xiang Yu just smiled lightly and didn’t say much; there was an important reason he was helping Feng Lan and the others, but he couldn’t just tell Tie Zhuzi.
The trio bid farewell to the mountainous area and headed towards the city. Their spirits lifted after leaving the mountains.
Back in the familiar city, Tie Zhuzi began to get excited. Nearly driven mad in the mountains, this was their turf where he could play without restraint.
Xiang Yu and his group didn’t return to Shi Jian’s place but found a hotel near their target to stay.
"Brother Yu, should we call Shi Jian over?" Tie Zhuzi asked excitedly.
"No need. We’ll be leaving after taking care of things tomorrow; let’s not disturb him," Xiang Yu replied.
But just as Xiang Yu finished speaking, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Tie Zhuzi hurried over and opened it.
"Shi Jian, we were just talking about you," Tie Zhuzi said with excitement.
"What about me?" Shi Jian didn’t hesitate and walked right in.
"We just arrived and were planning to call you over for a meet-up," Xiang Yu said without batting an eye.
"Cut the crap, you guys were definitely talking smack about me. Didn’t you just decide not to let me know?" Shi Jian guessed immediately. Though Xiang Yu’s face was flawless, Shi Jian knew him too well.
"How did you know?" Tie Zhuzi asked, surprised as he came over to sit down.
Xiang Yu then kicked Tie Zhuzi’s leg irritably; the little guy had blown their cover too soon, while Shi Jian was merely trying it out with a question...
