Chapter 247: The Plan Begins!

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“I came by car…” Liu Si Yu said with some trepidation.

“A car?”

Zhao Yu paused, recalling the scene when he first arrived and saw Liu Si Yu with Huang Zi Long.

“A male classmate?”

” Yes but it wasn’t just me. Zhou Miao was with me…” Liu Si Yu, concerned Zhao Yu might misunderstand, hastily explained.

“Public transport are not only expensive, but they’re also unsafe. 1 was afraid of potential dangers, so I asked a classmate for help…”

“No big deal. I’ll arrange a car to escort you both home when you leave.” Zhao Yu signalled Huo Da Hai to accompany Liu Si Yu outside.

Outside the factory, a used sedan was parked by the roadside.

The male driver was chatting non-stop with the female passenger in the back seat.

The girl in the back, looking a bit uneasy and keeping her head down, occasionally murmured in response.

She was Liu Si Yu’s roommate, Zhou Miao. Initially, she didn’t want to come, but Liu Si Yu begged her and willingly to pay her made Zhou Miao reluctantly agree. After all, getting paid more for a simple car ride than what she’d earn from a part-time job seemed like a good deal.

Zhou Miao also had a slight eagerness about experiencing a car ride, which made her agree.

The car was indeed nice, fulfilling one of her dreams.

The only drawback was the chatty male driver.

“Zhou Miao, you’re just too introverted. You actually look pretty good,” he commented.

Zhou Miao lowered her head further, not daring to respond.

The male student grinned, “To be honest, when Liu Si Yu asked for my help, I didn’t want to bother. But when she mentioned you’d be coming, 1 agreed. If it weren’t for you, why would I go through the trouble and even waste my gas?”

His words made Zhou Miao uneasy. Gasoline wasn’t cheap; did he expect her to compensate for it?

With her earnings from this “part-time job,” would it even be enough to cover the cost?

“About the gas money, I’ll give it to you later…”

She thought of the part-time payment she hadn’t yet received from the school’s cafeteria. Once she got back, she should have enough money.

“Come on, it’s just gas money. It’s not a big deal…” He paused, then laughed and added a condition.

“How about this? Treat me to a meal instead. Nothing fancy, just Gao Lao Zhuang…”

Gao Lao Zhuang?!

Dining there wasn’t cheap. It might cost even more than the gas money.

She hastily waved her hands, almost in tears, “Forget it. I’ll just give you the gas money…”

She thought to herself that she shouldn’t have been tempted by the car ride. Not only did she not make money, but now she had to pay.

The male student laughed and didn’t dwell on the topic. He pointed to the factory in front of them and said, “This rundown place doesn’t look all that impressive. I heard Zhao Yu spent three million on it…”

Three million?!

She couldn’t help but admire Zhao Yu.

She was just like him, yet Zhao Yu managed to build such a vast empire.

There were rumors about his wager with Huang Zi Long;

She hoped Zhao Yu would win.

Though Zhou Miao wasn’t close to Zhao Yu, she had met Huang Zi Long and didn’t find him trustworthy. Compared to Zhao Yu, who had once treated them to dinner, she naturally hoped for his victory.

“If 1 had three million, I definitely wouldn’t waste it on this old factory…” Boosted by Zhou Miao’s apparent, he bragged.

“I have a friend who leased a school cafeteria. He earns two hundred thousand a month. That’s three million a year! Isn’t that better than running this factory?”

Lease a cafeteria?!

Zhou Miao’s eyes lit up with envy. If she could lease the entire cafeteria and all its part-time jobs, wouldn’t she become wealthy?

After all, the money Zhao Yu has was bet on his life. Sooner or later, he’ll have to pay for it with his life. My friend, on the other hand, earned his money fair and square. He can spend it however he wishes…”

“Zhao Yu is quite capable too…” Zhou Miao said, a rare retort from her.

However, the male student seemed as if he had been stung by a bee upon hearing this.

“He’s capable? Nonsense! How can someone like him be considered capable if he’s willing to gamble with his own life?”

Zhou Miao looked up and said, “But Zhao Yu has ten million…”

“Don’t talk to me about that ten million. If I give you ten million but told you that you could only live for one more month, would you take it?

“You and I could do what he’s doing too, but we just choose not to!”

Liu Si Yu approached as they were talking, accompanied by seven or eight people.

“Is this the car?”

Huo Da Hai pointed at the car and asked.

“Yes.”

Liu Si Yu slightly lifted her chin, displaying a haughty demeanor.

These people were Zhao Yu’s subordinates. She’s the woman Zhao Yu adores, the future “lady boss”, so she felt it was only right to act the part.

Without much thought, Huo Da Hai opened the car door for her. Once Liu Si Yu had settled in, he closed it.

The two inside the car became nervous and went silent.

Especially the male student in the driver’s seat, who noticed the gun tucked into Huo Da Hai’s waistband, feeling a wave of unease.

Huo Da Hai started walking towards him, which startled the male student.

He quickly fastened his seatbelt.

“Is there… something wrong?” The male student asked nervously.

Huo Da Hai didn’t try to intimidate him and directly pulled out a wad of cash.

“Thank you for bringing them here. This is your hard-earned money…”

The male student’s eyes widened in surprise. That wad of cash seemed to be at least a thousand or two.

Just as he was about to take it. Liu Si Yu suddenly leaned over and snatched the money away.

“I’ve already paid him…”

Huo Da Hai was not expecting Liu Si Yu to grab the money so casually without a manner.

The male student showed a bitter expression but managed a forced smile, saying, “Big brother, Liu Si Yu really did pay me already. I can’t accept your money…”

Huo Da Hai, not particularly concerned about Liu Si Yu’s actions, simply said, “Alright then, start the car. I’ve arranged for someone to escort you.”

At the same time, three modified cars formed a triangular perimeter around them.

The male student glanced over, quite startled. On the three cars, several men held rifles, looking rather menacing.

Zhou Miao hadn’t realized how powerful Zhao Yu had become, having so many gunmen under him.

Only Liu Si Yu seemed proud, as if all these people were hers. After basking in her self-satisfaction for a moment, she urged, “Alright, let’s get going. 1 have a class to attend.”

All of them headed towards the school.

Zhao Yu stood by his office window, watching Liu Si Yu leave, a hint of concern on his brow.

He hadn’t expected that even after all this, Liu Si Yu still hadn’t fallen for him.

The original host’s last wish seemed stuck at this point.

At that moment, Huo Da Hai walked in, leaning close to Zhao Yu, whispering, “Boss, if we initiate the plan, what if someone kidnaps Liu Si Yu.”

“As long as I don’t show myself, she’ll be fine,” Zhao Yu said calmly.

“Tell them to speed up the process. I want to see the prototype by this afternoon.”

Time swiftly passed, and soon it was the afternoon.

When the assembly line workers powered up the production line and saw the emerging semi-finished product, they were all stunned.

“Is this… a gun?!”

As the workers were left in confusion, Zhao Yu had already disappeared, using the pretext of inspecting another factory.

Those accompanying him, including Huo Da Hai and his men, were also gone.

“Captain, we’ve lost him!”

“What?!”

Captain Huang was shocked. He confirmed that Zhao Yu had intentionally shaken them off.

Just as he was about to report back to the Huang family, another person ran up to him.

“Captain, there’s a big problem…”

“What could be more important than losing Zhao Yu?!”

The captain was somewhat irritated and continued to dial the phone.

As the call was just connecting, the subordinate said, “Captain, the prototype produced by Zhao Yu’s factory appear to be… guns.”

“What?!”

At the same time, the voice of the Huang family patriarch echoed from the phone.

“Guns? Zhao Yu’s factory is producing guns?!”

Captain Huang quickly responded, explaining that he had just received this report and had not yet confirmed it himself.

“Go confirm it quickly, and don’t hang up the phone…” the Mr. Huang urged on the line.

Setting aside the issue of Zhao Yu’s disappearance, Captain Huang hastily followed his subordinate to the production line.

When he saw the prototype, which was unmistakably the body of a handgun, he was utterly shocked.

“Master, it really seems to be a gun…”

His words had barely left his mouth when he heard the heavy breathing from the other end of the line.

A moment later, the voice of Mr. Huang came through.

“Quickly, seal off the entire factory and confiscate everyone’s communication devices. I’m on my way….”
