Liu Liu hesitated for a moment before turning and leaving.
I lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and fell into deep thought.
This time coming to Golden Lake, besides rescuing Tang Jicheng, he had something even more important to do.
That was to test Li Dangshi!
This person was quite restless in the Shadow Garb Bureau, always thinking about taking his place, even going so far as to collaborate with underworld factions to spy on his movements.
If it weren't for his own caution, he would have probably fallen into Li Dangshi's trap long ago!
So this time, he used this opportunity to draw Li Dangshi out, precisely to test him!
I finished my cigarette, placed the cigarette holder on the table, and picked up my teacup for a sip.
"Sigh, this is really giving me a headache..."
I rubbed my forehead and let out a bitter laugh.
Just then, Liu Liu hurriedly walked in and said, "My lord, Lord Li and the others have returned!"
I raised an eyebrow. "Oh? So soon?"
Liu Liu replied, "Yes, they are bringing Tang Jicheng this way."
I stood up and said, "Good, prepare to welcome them."
Liu Liu hesitated and said, "Then... what about that money?"
I replied calmly, "That money is Lu Yitau's life savings. Find a place to bury it, and take it with you when I return to Haining."
Liu Liu acknowledged and turned to go to the back hall.
I walked out of the study and came downstairs, where I saw Li Dangshi and others had already arrived at the store entrance, escorting Tang Jicheng out of the car.
As soon as Tang Chenshung saw me, he rushed over and knelt down with a thud.
I was startled and asked, "Boss Tang, what are you doing?"
Tang Chenshung's eyes were filled with tears. "Lord Ye, thank you... thank you for saving my son..."
I quickly helped him up. "Boss Tang, please don't do this. It's what I should do."
Tang Chenshung grasped my hand and choked back his emotions. "Lord Ye, I... I really don't know how to thank you..."
I patted his hand and smiled. "Boss Tang, you should take your family away from Golden Lake. This is not a place to stay for long."
Tang Chenshung nodded. "I understand. I'll pack my things right away and leave first thing tomorrow morning!"
I smiled. "That's good to hear."
After hesitating for a moment, Tang Chenshung took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and stuffed them into my hand.
I was taken aback. "Boss Tang, what is this...?"
Tang Chenshung said, "Lord Ye, here are eight hundred thousand taels in banknotes. Please be sure to accept them!"
I frowned and replied, "Boss Tang, what do you mean by this?"
Tang Chenshung continued, "Lord Ye, you saved my son's life. I have no way to repay you, so I can only offer this small amount of money as a token of gratitude for you and your brothers' hard work. Please do not refuse!"
I hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Alright then, thank you."
Tang Chenshung sighed in relief, "Thank you, Lord Ye."
I counted out ten notes from the stack and tucked them into my pocket, returning the rest to Tang Chenshung.
Tang Chenshung was taken aback, "Lord Ye, what do you mean by this?"
I smiled and said, "This hundred thousand taels is my tribute to Lord Feng and also a reward for my brothers' hard work. The rest, you should take back with you."
Tang Chenshung shook his head, "This... this is too little..."
I patted his shoulder and smiled, "Boss Tang, earning money is not easy. Keep this money for your operations; don't let all your hard work go to waste."
Tang Chenshung looked at me, hesitated for a moment, and sighed, "Alright then, since that's the case, I will accept it."
