Chapter 1241: Timing
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Brother Ding and his lover, Sister Wen, were also with Ah Zhu in the private room just now. He sent someone to follow us, to see if we’re really here to make big money. He should have let Ah Zhu test us. When Ah Zhu thinks that we can do it, Brother Ding might agree to see us,” Jiang Yao said.
“Just pretend that you didn’t notice those retards behind you.” Lu Xingzhi held Jiang Yao’s hand and led her to the side where there was no barbeque stall. However, even though Jiang Yao could not eat it, she still felt uncomfortable smelling it.
She knew that Brother Ding was the restaurant owner, so Jiang Yao did not dare tell Lu Xingzhi anything because she was afraid the walls had ears.
Since they had reached the roadside, it was much more convenient for the two of them to talk quietly.
Jiang Yao immediately burst into laughter when Lu Xingzhi called those people retards. Then, she said, “We came at the right time.. Brother Ding is now looking for an opportunity to kill the people above him. I just heard him say that the person is called Brother Jing or Brother Jin. The third person is called Ah Da. But I am not very sure—Brother Ding’s accent is very thick, so I am not sure if I heard it wrong. In short, there are still two people above him. He has to give those two people a lot of money every year.”
The informant did not give any information about those two people. Since the informant’s ability was quite limited, he could not get in touch with the people on the upper level. He only knew that Brother Ding still had people above him. However, he did not know who they were.
That was why Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi said that they had a perfect opportunity at that time. If they could gain Brother Ding’s trust when he wanted to rebel, then he might arrange for her and Lu Xingzhi to get close to one of the two people. Then, she and Lu Xingzhi would be able to get more useful information. Perhaps they could even get in touch with the core figures in the group through those two people.
The information that Jiang Yao had shocked Lu Xingzhi. After digesting the report, he reached out to touch Jiang Yao’s ears and her eyes.
He was shocked, though he knew that nothing was impossible.
The bureau chief and Colonel Lin must have agreed that Jiang Yao could become his partner after a very rational consideration. That was because many emotions could easily be exposed through disguises when working under someone like Brother Ding, who was very vigilant.
For example, the feelings between husband and wife, a man’s desire and love for women.
Even if he wanted to treat that partner as Jiang Yao, he still could not guarantee that he would show concern for that person as he did for Jiang Yao.
Furthermore, Jiang Yao’s eyes and ears were weapons that people often overlook. Even if the army sent out another company of people, they would not be able to compare to the information that she could gather alone.
“Are you going to praise me?” Jiang Yao shook her head and laughed softly. “Come, let me hear a few words of praise.”
After Lu Xingzhi withdrew his hand, he did not say a word. He only shot a deep glance at his wife, who had a bright smile on her face. Then, the corner of his lips twitched slightly. He held her hand and asked a passerby for directions. After they found the market, they bought some things and went to buy some pots and pans before returning to the room that Ah Zhu had rented for them.
