Stalked Again
"Haha, I'm afraid I won't be able to." Pengzhan said faintly. "Is there anything else, Boss Li?"
Pengzhan hadn't said anything, and his words had been conveying his rejection of Cihua, as well as the fact that he wanted to keep his distance from Cihua. But even a wise man could make a mistake. He never would've thought that Cihua would be able to glean some information from his rejection!
Pengzhan had said that he wouldn't be able to invite him, not that he wouldn't be able to invite him. This meant that Lin Yi was probably alone now, and he didn't have anyone from the same sect. If that was the case, then there wouldn't be any worries when dealing with Lin Yi!
Cihua was overjoyed. Pengzhan, you old fox! You didn't see this coming, did you? I'm not here to poach you, nor am I here to hire another bodyguard for Master Bing. I'm here to get some information!
Cihua didn't stay any longer after getting the answer he wanted. He left immediately, and Pengzhan didn't bother sending him off, either. He smiled coldly as he watched Cihua walk out of the office.
Cihua hated Pengzhan- in fact, he would've gone after Pengzhan even if this hadn't happened. He just didn't have the time yet! It'd be a great achievement if House Chu's wealth fell into House Zhao's hands!
Although the so-called hidden aristocratic families were mysterious ancient martial arts families with absolute masters, their wealth was actually not as great as those ordinary aristocratic families. This was because they pursued different things. The hidden aristocratic families pursued the pinnacle of martial arts, while those aristocratic families pursued power and money!
The two were fundamentally different, but hidden noble houses had a strong reputation as well. Not only did they have a lot of masters, but they also had a lot of medical experts. This was what the noble houses yearned for …
Although it wasn't the ancient times where firearms existed, guns could still be a threat to normal people. But for real masters, masters above the golden class, they could easily dodge bullets and kill people before they could even open fire.
Hence, guns were nothing to an expert. Of course, cannons, rockets, and armored cars were a different story. Even the mafia houses wouldn't be able to get their hands on these things, let alone normal noble houses.
Hidden houses, on the other hand, needed money in order to maintain their development. This was also why Cihua was making money outside! Cihua had been drooling over Pengzhan Industries for a long time even without Master Bing …
After leaving Pengzhan Industries, Cihua gave Master Bing a call and told him the good news. As for how to deal with Lin Yi, he'd have to discuss it with Uncle Zhu and Yaowang. He wasn't in a rush, and it was enough as long as he knew that Lin Yi didn't have any background or support.
Cihua felt a lot more relaxed now that he was done with this matter. He immediately went to contact the people who were building the skyscraper. It wasn't possible to build the skyscraper in a few days, but twenty days of hard work should be enough to complete it!
However, the wages were doubled. The price of building a house at night was naturally different from building a house during the day! But Cihua didn't have a choice. Master Bing had given him a death order, and if he didn't carry it out, he might anger Master Bing!
Cihua had no choice but to use the money he was planning to give to Guangyin. It was for Guangyin's son anyway, and Guangyin wouldn't say anything even if he knew about it.
… …
Today, Lin Yi wanted to visit Tang Yun at the hospital, but he was called up by Mengyao and Yushu early in the morning.
"Lin Yi, accompany us to the bookstore to buy some revision materials today!" Mengyao said.
"Ugh …" Lin Yi suspected that the Miss heard that he was going to visit Tang Yun at the hospital yesterday. Otherwise, why would she suddenly want to buy revision materials? One had to know that Mengyao and Yushu spent most of their time at home during the weekends.
"What, do you need something?" Mengyao really didn't want to make things difficult for Lin Yi! Her father's words yesterday made Mengyao even more determined to get a good result. However, under the exam-oriented education system, it was impossible to get a good result without revision materials.
No matter how smart you were, you couldn't avoid the brain-twisting questions. Only practice makes perfect, and you could deal with all kinds of changes.
"It's nothing." Lin Yi could only accompany the Miss to the bookstore.
"Then why don't you hurry up and pack?" Mengyao's tone and attitude had returned to normal. She didn't have the abnormal emotions from yesterday.
This made Lin Yi let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had thought too much. The Miss was still the Miss from before.
After Lin Yi packed up, he left with Mengyao and Yushu. On the way, he sent a text to Tang Yun, telling her that he would visit her at the hospital in the afternoon.
Tang Yun didn't think much after receiving the text. It was already midnight when they returned to the hospital yesterday. It was only ten in the morning now, and Tang Yun hadn't woken up yet. She thought that Lin Yi would need to sleep a little longer.
"Which bookstore?" Lin Yi drove the car out of the villa area and asked the Miss in the backseat.
"Let's go to Xuehai Bookstore? The one near the school, "Mengyao thought about it and said.
"Okay." Lin Yi nodded, but his eyes fell on the rearview mirror of the car. There was a black MPV following them after they left the district. Lin Yi had seen this MPV before. Who else could it be if it wasn't Cihua's?
He didn't expect that Cihua, who had been depressed for a long time, would start to play surveillance again? Didn't he know that his car had been exposed once?
In fact, Cihua didn't want to hide from Lin Yi. He sent people to the villa area just to see how Lin Yi was doing.
Yuchu dialed Cihua's number as he sat in the black MPV.
"Cihua bro, it's me, Yuchu!" Yuchu said hurriedly. "I saw Lin Yi!"
"Oh?" Cihua had just finished his business. He hired a construction team to redesign the damaged building, and they were ready to start tomorrow. Cihua, on the other hand, returned to the Floating Cloud bar and received a call from Yuchu the moment he entered.
He'd sent Yuchu to keep an eye on Lin Yi. He didn't know how Lin Yi was doing right now, and Cihua couldn't get anything out of Pengzhan. So, he sent Yuchu out to keep an eye on Lin Yi's villa.
"Where did you see him? How's Lin Yi? "Cihua asked.
