These n decided to follow Li Xiaoyao, which is actually understandable.
Working as a security guard, one can earn at most 5000 Xuan Country Currency a month, but following Li Xiaoyao, not only do they get food and lodging, but they can also make 10000 Xuan Country Currency a month.
Indeed, they were aware that following Li Xiaoyao ant doing things like watching over places and occasionally getting into fights, but they felt that these were within an acceptable range of tasks.
After leaving the security departnt, Li Xiaoyao made a phone call to Zhang ng, saying, "ng ng, help book a table at the hotel for lunch, for thirteen people."
"Okay, I got it," Zhang ng's voice still sounded very tired.
Li Xiaoyao felt that sothing was off with Zhang ng today and said, "Are you busy right now? If not, co over for a bit."
Not long after the call ended, Zhang ng arrived.
Zhang ng still looked the sa, with a sowhat pale complexion, as if she really hadn't rested well, but Li Xiaoyao saw worry in her eyes.

This girl must have sothing on her mind.
Standing in front of her, Li Xiaoyao asked, "ng ng, are you in so kind of trouble?"
Zhang ng looked at Li Xiaoyao with a bit of surprise, then shook her head and said, "No."
Zhang ng wasn't a girl who would lie. Li Xiaoyao touched her hair and said, "ng ng, if you have any trouble, you must tell . Just call brother, and no matter what trouble you face, I, as your brother, will help you solve it."
"Mm," Zhang ng replied softly, head lowered.
Seeing that she was unwilling to elaborate, Li Xiaoyao didn't press further and said, "Go on with your work, but rember, if sothing cos up, you must tell ."
Zhang ng stepped out of the office and looked back with lingering affection, giving a self-deprecating smile and said, "Just treating as a sister, huh? Thank you, Brother Xiaoyao."
Zhang ng returned to her desk, and her phone rang, showing a call from a man nad Liu Yang.
Zhang ng picked up the phone and went outside the company to answer the call.
"Hello?" Zhang ng's voice was timid and weak.
"ng ng, have you quit your job yet?"
"I'll quit today."
"Oh, good, then I'll drive over and wait for you downstairs at your company."
Zhang ng bit her lip, saying, "No need, I can go back by myself."
"Heh heh, how could that be possible? You're going to be my little concubine in the future." A sleazy laugh ca through the phone.
Zhang ng's eyes reddened slightly as she said, "Liu Yang, don't go too far!"
"? Going too far?" Liu Yang chuckled disdainfully, "Zhang ng, I didn't force you into this; it was your own choice. Of course, if you regret it now, you're free to refuse, but then, your dad, he'll be in great danger."
Zhang ng angrily said, "You're shaless!"
"Debts are ant to be repaid; it's only natural. Your old man owes 200,000 and not repaying it; I've already spared him from breaking his arms and legs, which is giving you a lot of face. If it were anyone else, I would have thrown them in the fishpond to feed the fish long ago."
Tears stread down her face as Zhang ng sat crouched in a corner, her body trembling slightly, crying in distress.
Her father gambled at ho and owed the gaming hall 200,000.
Liu Yang was the owner of the gaming hall; knowing that Zhang ng's father had a young and beautiful daughter, he coerced her into marrying him with the 200,000 debt. If Zhang ng refused, he would cripple her father.
Zhang ng only found out about this last night, and she cried all night. But crying couldn't solve any problems.
Zhang ng wiped her tears, stood up from the ground, took out her phone, and proactively made a call to Liu Yang.
"ng ng, how about it? Have you thought it over?" Liu Yang asked.
Zhang ng said calmly, "Wait for outside the house I'm renting at ten-thirty tonight."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang ng walked to the restroom, washed the tears from her face with water, then looked at herself in the mirror and smiled sweetly.
She had decided that before leaving, she would do one thing.
This matter was very important, and if she did not do it, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
...
Li Xiaoyao sat in his office, pondering over the layout of San Tiao Alley, when suddenly, he received a call from Zhao Si.
"Little brother, are you busy?"
Li Xiaoyao knew that Zhao Si must have learned of Hu Zhi's death, which is why he was calling him.
"Hehe, Si Ge, what brings you to call ?"
Zhao Si said, "Little brother, Hu Zhi is dead."
Li Xiaoyao replied with a faint smile, "If he's dead, then he's dead."
"When are you free, little brother? Let's have a drink."
"I probably can't make it these next few days, I'm pretty busy. I'll call you when I'm free," Li Xiaoyao replied, not wanting to be evasive but was truly busy during this ti.
"Alright then, once you're free, let's have a good drink, the two of us."
Sitting in a bar at that mont, Si Ge placed his cell phone aside, picked up a glass of red wine, downed it in one gulp, and exclaid loudly, "Refreshing!"
Hei Zi sat next to Zhao Si and asked, "Si Ge, that big piece of cake in San Tiao Alley, are you really going to share it with that kid?"
Si Ge glanced at him and said, "Do you know how Hu Zhi died?"
Hei Zi shook his head.
Si Ge said, "He did it."
Hei Zi said, "Even if he killed Hu Zhi, it's no big deal. I could also take down Hu Zhi."
Si Ge laughed and replied, "I believe you could take down Hu Zhi, but you definitely couldn't do it like he did. There were no traces of a third person at the scene of Hu Zhi's murder, not even the special case team could find a single clue. This shows that he had made very thorough preparations before taking action. Additionally, he is a smart man. At that ti, I only asked him to help deal with Hu Zhi, but I didn't tell him to kill anyone. However, now Hu Zhi is dead. This move was risky, but also very clever!"
Hei Zi looked puzzled, and Si Ge poured himself so more red wine, saying, "Let ask you, when Hu Zhi died, who did the police suspect first?"
Hei Zi frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Could it be you, Si Ge?"
Si Ge raised his hand and slapped him on the head, cursing, "Idiot."
Hei Zi rubbed his head and muttered, "You told to guess, then you scold when I guess wrong."
Si Ge shook his head helplessly and said, "When Hu Zhi died, the police would suspect whoever stood to gain the most benefit."
Hei Zi nodded thoughtfully, as Si Ge continued, "There are three gang leaders in San Tiao Alley, and Hu Zhi was the biggest one. Hu Zhi was on bad terms with the other two gang leaders even when he was alive. Now that he is dead, do you think the police will suspect that the other two gang leaders banded together to kill him?"
With Si Ge's analysis, Hei Zi had a sudden realization, clapped his hands, and said, "Right, the police will definitely suspect them."
"Li Xiaoyao must have taken this into consideration beforehand, otherwise, he wouldn't have made such a ruthless move," Si Ge smiled at his own perfect reasoning ability, lifted his glass, and drained it in one gulp.
In reality, Li Xiaoyao's killing of Hu Zhi was not as complicated as Si Ge had described.
The real reason and process were, in fact, very simple: Hu Zhi had offended Li Xiaoyao, so Li Xiaoyao wanted to kill him.
But Li Xiaoyao's cunning backfired; by killing Hu Zhi, he was seen by Si Ge as having had everything planned in advance. Thus, in Si Ge's eyes, Li Xiaoyao beca a tough character with both courage and strategy.
