Yingzi pulled Fei Hu, and just as they were about to leave, the young man who had called the police earlier ran over. He smiled and said, "It looks like you two are new here. This gang has been running rampant for a long time, and no one dares to confront them. Today is a bit of relief for us outsiders, but you need to be careful. Scarred Face is ruthless, and he might seek revenge once he gets out."
"Thank you! You should be careful too," Fei Hu said, feeling very grateful to the young man.
The Young Man waved his hand and said while pulling the girl along, "We're leaving this place soon; we're heading somewhere else."
Seeing their cheerful demeanor, Fei Hu couldn't help but glance back at Yingzi and softly said, "Should we just leave too? That Scarred Face seems like a habitual offender; I don't want to run into someone like him again."
"Yeah! I was thinking the same thing. Tomorrow morning we'll take the bus to Shanghang, stay there for over a week, and then we'll return to City A. That way, even if Ye Wu is clever, he won't be able to find us," Yingzi seemed confident, having already planned their itinerary in her mind.
The two returned to the hotel around four in the afternoon. Yingzi immediately contacted Ye Cheng by phone, and her idea received approval from the old man. Fei Hu understood from Yingzi's conversation with Ye Cheng that the ones in a hurry were Ye Wu and Ye Wei. If they delayed returning to City A by just one day, those two would be anxious for another day. They were like a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.
During dinner time, Ye Xiaofei returned to the villa looking exhausted. Sister Wu instructed the maid to bring food to Ye Cheng's study. The three of them sat around the coffee table and began their dinner. Ye Cheng glanced at Ye Xiaofei and said with a hint of pain, "Xiaofei, don't tire yourself out too much; your health is important."
Ye Xiaofei took a bite of food and suddenly stopped to ask Ye Cheng, "Grandpa, did Yingzi and Fei Hu call? Where are they now? Are they coming back soon?"
Ye Cheng shook his head and said, "Let them stay out for a few more days; there's no rush for them to come back. Let Ye Wu and Ye Wei stir up some chaos first. Besides, if they come back now, their safety isn't guaranteed. Yesterday A-Dong called and said that Ye Wu has moved most of his people to the airport and bus station, seemingly waiting for some important figure to appear. In this situation, do you think they can come back?"
Ye Xiaofei thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Alright then! We'll just wait it out; after all, they're more anxious than we are."
"Child, what do you plan to do next? This is a major incident; if things go wrong, Sheng Wei might come to an end as well. You must be cautious—not only should you deal a heavy blow to Ye Wei and Ye Wu but also ensure Sheng Wei's interests are protected. Otherwise, when you take over, Sheng Wei will only be an empty shell," Ye Cheng said thoughtfully while stroking his white beard.
Ye Xiaofei shook her head and replied, "That's impossible. Ye Wei is smuggling drugs this time—it's not only a large quantity but also classified as contraband in China. Even if I want to protect Sheng Wei's interests by not exposing them, once these drugs circulate domestically, it will definitely attract police attention. If they investigate thoroughly, won't the source still point back to Sheng Wei? Sheng Wei will still be doomed."
"What should we do then? We can't just ignore it. If they succeed in collaborating this time and get a lot of cash in hand, they'll definitely come after us next," Ye Cheng said anxiously.
Sister Wu sat nearby continuously serving them food; she didn't dare say a word about such matters.
Ye Xiaofei thought for a long time and finally made up his mind to say, "I am going to report anonymously, so that the police can intercept these drugs halfway. This way, we can protect Sheng Wei and prevent these drugs from circulating in the country, leaving Ye Wu and Ye Wei with nothing, which will ruin them."
Sister Wu, who had been silent until now, interjected, "Xiaofei, this plan is good; it serves two purposes. However, at the same time we report it, we need to inform Ye Wu's convoy in advance so that their personnel can escape unscathed. Otherwise, if they get caught, it will also implicate Sheng Wei."
Ye Cheng glanced at Sister Wu and smiled, saying, "This plan is excellent. You must listen carefully; don't shoot yourself in the foot. Otherwise, you'll lose both the lady and the soldiers."
Ye Xiaofei nodded and got up to leave.
In a private room at a tea house in City A, Little Four was surrounded by seven or eight young people dressed haphazardly. One of them, with a sharp chin and monkey-like features, said, "Fourth Brother, we can't keep waiting like this; they probably haven't returned to City A."
Little Four took a sip of tea and asked with his small eyes turning, "Monkey, do you mean they got off somewhere else?"
"Think about it from their perspective. If it were me, I wouldn't go straight back to City A. They might have gotten off in Shanghang or even further away in Xiao Xi, then slowly made their way back. How are we supposed to wait for them?" The guy referred to as Monkey spoke confidently; although he looked a bit small-headed, he was quite clever.
Little Four thought for a moment and slapped the table, saying, "Right! How did I not think of that! They must have gotten off in Shanghang. Monkey, you need to run to Xitang immediately and ask the Wu Brothers for help. We’ll drive directly to Shanghang tomorrow morning and contact some acquaintances there. Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must catch these two people this time; otherwise, brothers, our meal ticket will be over."
Monkey scratched his head and quietly asked, "Xitang's Wu Brothers? You mean those guys known as Wu's Three Ghosts? I think that's unreliable; they're too shrewd and won't act easily. I'm afraid going there would be a waste of time and delay our plans."
Little Four leaned closer to Monkey's ear and said, "Just go. They've recently committed a murder and are looking to flee; they urgently need money. Tell them that once this is done, I'll pay them immediately so they can leave from Shanghang."
Hearing this, Monkey smiled and got up to leave.
"Chen Dui, how's the matter I asked you to handle?" Little Four then asked the chubby guy sitting across from him.
The man named Chen Dui immediately stood up and said softly, "Fourth Brother, everything is arranged. The convoy doesn't dare to travel during the day; they only set out at night. So they're moving slowly. They should arrive in Shanghang by tomorrow night. Once they get there, I'll make sure the first three vehicles disappear immediately; I've already arranged a place for that."
Little Four wore a slight smile but suddenly asked Chen Dui again, "Don't you have a sworn brother in Xiao Xi? Last time he came to City A, you introduced him to me; we all drank together. Can you contact him for help? It would be good for us to have some support in Xiao Xi."
"Oh! You're talking about Scarface. This is easy. I'll make a call first, and if everything goes well, you can leave anything to me. I'll head out early and have him bring people to meet us at Xiao Xi," Chen Dui said excitedly, clearly eager to see his sworn brother.
Little Four called him over and whispered something, then pulled out a large photo from his pocket and said, "Just look for this woman."
Chen Dui asked with some confusion, "Isn't there a man too?"
"Idiot, if I had his photo, wouldn't I give it to you? Anyway, the two of them are together. If we find one, the other won't escape," Little Four said, patting Chen Dui on the shoulder as the group left the teahouse.
With nothing to do that evening and not wanting to go out, Yingzi and Fei Hu were watching TV in the living room. Just before eleven o'clock, Yingzi's phone on the sofa suddenly rang. She quickly answered it and muted the TV, happily exclaiming, "Hello! Sister Xiaofei, why are you calling so late? Is there something going on? Oh! Okay, I'm listening."
After hanging up the phone, Yingzi pondered for a moment before making another call, this time to Ni Ling. The conversation lasted quite a while. Once Yingzi hung up, Fei Hu couldn't sit still anymore and eagerly asked, "Why are we doing this? Does that mean we don't have to return what we have?"
Yingzi sighed deeply and said, "This is a bit difficult for Sister Xiaofei. However, this approach is very good; it's like killing two birds with one stone. This way, the danger for both of us will be eliminated. Tomorrow afternoon, as long as we hand over what you have to Ni Ling, this matter will be considered complete. The day after tomorrow we can return to City A, and you can go see your person," Yingzi said with a somewhat unnatural smile.
Fei Hu deliberately pouted and said, "Hmph! I have plenty of people I want to meet; I’m not concerned about one or two. But our mission is about to be completed; that’s still quite pleasing."
Yingzi turned off the TV and thought for a moment before saying, "Until the last moment, we can't let our guard down. Ye Wu and his group are not fools; they can think of what we think."
"Who cares! We'll deal with it when the time comes; who can think that far ahead? Hey! What exactly is your relationship with Ni Ling? I always feel something is off," Fei Hu suddenly asked Yingzi.
"What nonsense! We are high school classmates and also fellow townspeople," Yingzi replied, her expression still somewhat strange as she said this.
