Chapter 1334 - 1329: Mysterious Funds
Zhou Kai was stunned when he heard this. The meaning behind Silver Fox's words was clear: he only needed to find Qin Tianlei and Gu Qing, and the rest would not interfere.
Naturally, Zhou Kai wasn't pleased about this. Qin Tianlei and Gu Qing were the masterminds behind the deaths of his three good brothers. If he wanted revenge, he had to do it himself. Only by personally taking out those two could he avenge his three wronged brothers.
"Lu Dapao, Li Qiang, and Huang Bo were all good brothers of our Jvyi Gang. I must avenge them myself." After pondering for a while, Zhou Kai looked at Silver Fox and said.
Zhou Kai's words were undoubtedly a rebuttal to Silver Fox's earlier ones, making it clear that Silver Fox and her team were only there to help because of Tang Yumeng, and revenge was solely the Jvyi Gang's business.
Silver Fox, of course, understood Zhou Kai's meaning and coldly said, "I'm not underestimating you, but Gu Qing is very cunning, and you're simply no match for him."
Silver Fox's words, though not exaggerated, sounded to Zhou Kai like she was looking down on him and the entire Jvyi Gang, which made him feel a bit angry.
"Sorry, our Jvyi Gang handles our own affairs. Besides, you are friends of Secretary Tang. If something were to happen to you, I wouldn't be able to explain it to her." Despite his irritation, Zhou Kai maintained a calm tone.
Before Silver Fox could respond, Blue Fox, who was standing beside her, was displeased upon hearing Zhou Kai's words and said, "Oh, what's this? Do you look down on us women? How about a little contest?"
Blue Fox was straightforward by nature, and Silver Fox seemed uninterested in stopping her. She also wanted to use this opportunity to showcase their strength.
Zhou Kai cleared his throat and said, "I think it's better not to. After all, you're guests, and if there's any accident, it wouldn't be good."
Zhou Kai's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. With her eyebrows raised, Blue Fox said, "I see you men are too scared to compete against us. If that's the case, just admit it."
These words provoked Zhou Kai, who immediately said, "Alright, then I'll have a few brothers keep you company."
Several Jvyi Gang brothers on the side were already eager, all stepping forward to volunteer alongside Zhou Kai.
"No need for so much trouble; you can all come at once," Blue Fox said as she stepped forward and stood firm, looking at Zhou Kai and the others.
Zhou Kai was taken aback by the boldness of this woman. However, having one woman face several big men seemed a bit much. He instructed one of the Jvyi Gang members beside him, "You go first, remember, pull your punches, don't hurt her."
Zhou Kai wasn't aware of the prowess of Silver Fox and Blue Fox, which made his concern about not harming Blue Fox somewhat laughable.
The Jvyi Gang member swaggered over to face Blue Fox, politely saying, "Come on, I'll let you make three moves."
Blue Fox smiled slightly, moved swiftly, and with a sudden reach of her right hand, grabbed at the Jvyi Gang member.
Blue Fox's speed was so fast that before the Jvyi Gang member could react, she had grabbed his collar, tripped him with her right foot, and threw him aside with a twist of her hand.
What the heck, Zhou Kai and the Jvyi Gang brothers watched in shock. Within a blink of an eye, a big man fell before a woman with barely a struggle. How embarrassing.
Certainly a coincidence, it must have been this guy being careless. Zhou Kai couldn't yet bring himself to believe in the opponent's strength, scolding himself inwardly.
Another Jvyi Gang member didn't wait for Zhou Kai's command and already charged towards Blue Fox.
Blue Fox, unhurried, waited for his fist to come close, then swiftly flashed her right hand, grabbed his wrist, twisted it back, and once again threw him aside.
This time Zhou Kai was truly taken aback. Though the opponent was a woman, she was far stronger than his men, no wonder she could speak so boldly.
Several Jvyi Gang members were unconvinced, clamoring to go up, but Zhou Kai glared at them and said, "Stop embarrassing yourselves. Go back."
Seeing no one else coming forward, Blue Fox clapped her hands, turned, and retreated behind Silver Fox.
Zhou Kai awkwardly looked at Silver Fox, chuckling as he said, "Alright, I agree with you, but I need you to agree to one condition of mine."
Silver Fox smiled slightly and said, "No problem, go ahead."
Zhou Kai said, "I have no other requests, just that when we find Qin Tianlei and Gu Qing, let me handle it personally."
Silver Fox said, "I can let you handle Qin Tianlei, but not Gu Qing."
Zhou Kai was taken aback and asked, "Why not?"
Silver Fox replied, "Gu Qing was the person your boss Lin Chuan asked me to find; I can't let you deal with him."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kai immediately understood that this woman was connected to Lin Chuan, who wanted to find Gu Qing to avenge Mu Bai.
So, he said no more, nodded, and said, "Alright, I agree with you."
Although Jvyi Gang had some power on the fishing grounds in Fukuoka, finding Qin Tianlei and Gu Qing was easier said than done. They could only seek Qingzi's help.
Yamaguchi Group is Japan's largest gang; asking them to find these two people is a piece of cake.
...
After Tang Yumeng returned to Jiangbei City with Luo Guoqing, Luo Guoqing drove straight to Tang Yumeng's home and then left.
Tang Yumeng returned to her residence, and as soon as she opened the door, two little creatures rushed toward her quickly.
The two little creatures, Xiao Ling and Xiao Hei, pounced into Tang Yumeng's arms, constantly twisting their small bodies.
Tang Yumeng giggled, reached out to stroke the two little creatures' bodies, then closed the door and sat on the sofa to play with them.
After a moment of frolicking, Tang Yumeng let the two little creatures down, got up to take a bath, came out, lay in bed, and recalled what Luo Guoqing had mentioned about Song Ming's funds transfer today.
Previously, under Tang Yumeng's urging, Lin Chuan had already handed over that fund to the national treasury, so how did it suddenly reappear?
If it wasn't Mu Bai who did it, who was the one who transferred the fund over, and what was their purpose?
Tang Yumeng pondered these matters, the more she thought, the stranger it seemed. She rolled out of bed, grabbed her phone, and dialed Luo Guoqing.
At this time, Luo Guoqing had already returned home and was talking to Nuo Xiaoxi and his wife. When he heard the phone ring, he quickly picked it up to see it was Tang Yumeng calling.
"Secretary Tang, you haven't rested yet so late?" Luo Guoqing said as he answered the call.
Tang Yumeng said over the phone: "Old Luo, who told you about the funds' affair today?"
Luo Guoqing paused for a moment and said: "Xiao Chen from the city state-owned assets office said it, what's up, Secretary Tang, is there a problem?"
On the phone, Tang Yumeng said: "Old Luo, tomorrow, personally go to the state-owned assets office to investigate the situation of this funds transfer and preferably find out who transferred the funds in."
Luo Guoqing acknowledged her request, then said goodnight to Tang Yumeng and hung up the call.
Luo Guoqing's wife asked beside him: "Old Luo, who was on the phone?"
Luo Guoqing said: "It was Secretary Tang on the phone, asking me to handle something tomorrow."
His wife complained a bit: "Old Luo, now Tang Yumeng is no longer the secretary, you better not get involved with her anymore."
Upon hearing this, Luo Guoqing got upset and said: "You don't know anything, if it weren't for Secretary Tang, I wouldn't even know where I'd be playing around now."
Luo Guoqing's wife pursed her lips and said nothing more.
Nuo Xiaoxi looked at Luo Guoqing and said: "Uncle Luo, I remembered something and wondered if I should tell you."
Luo Guoqing gazed at Nuo Xiaoxi affectionately and said: "Xiao Xi, you can tell me whatever it is, I'm family, not an outsider."
Nuo Xiaoxi pondered for a moment and said: "A few days ago someone came looking for me, he was also looking for Brother Lin, saying that if I saw Brother Lin I should tell him he had a funds transfer that required procedures."
Luo Guoqing looked at Nuo Xiaoxi surprised and asked: "When did this happen?"
Nuo Xiaoxi didn't hesitate and said: "It was just the other day, oh, last Friday, right after I finished school in the afternoon."
Luo Guoqing continued to ask: "Did the visitor say his name?"
Nuo Xiaoxi shook her head and said: "No, I asked but he wouldn't say. I also asked for his contact, he just told me to mention Mu Bai after seeing Brother Lin."
Luo Guoqing was stunned for a moment, then promptly called Tang Yumeng to relay Nuo Xiaoxi's situation to her.
Tang Yumeng was even more perplexed after hearing this; the funds were originally related to Mu Bai, but Mu Bai was dead now, how did the other party know these funds were connected to Mu Bai?
According to Nuo Xiaoxi, the visitor was male, someone she had never seen before. Could it be that Mu Bai is not dead, and this man was sent by her to find Lin Chuan?
Tang Yumeng tossed and turned half the night thinking but couldn't make sense of it, and it wasn't until the early dawn that she fell into a muddled sleep.
Early the next morning, Tang Yumeng freshened up briefly, then settled the two little creatures and drove directly to the Sichuan University Group office building.
Tang Yumeng had just taken over Sichuan University Group and first needed to understand the various business dealings of the group. Zhou Kai's office was now hers, and as soon as she stepped in and hadn't sat down firmly, Ma Yilin came in.
"President Tang, I just received a message, the recent issues among our Sichuan University Group executives have somehow leaked, and now all kinds of rumors are flying online. I'm afraid this will affect our stock price." Ma Yilin said, entering without sitting down.
