Chapter 395 Today is a Good Day!
Hua's Villa.
Song Yun was holding the information filled with Zhou Hao's movements from yesterday, as well as what actions he had undertaken.
"Kid, it seems you're not too bright, you took such a simple bait like a dumb fish,"
Song Yun shook his head in disappointment.
In his view, that little thug and Uncle Gang were definitely in cahoots to swindle people; the two of them wouldn't have the guts to skim money off the boss's business.
If their boss found out, chances were that these two would disappear from the world thereafter.
"Son, are you coming with me to the institute today?"
Song Bu opened the door of his study and asked.
"I've got some things to handle today; how about tomorrow? I'll go with you. If there are any slackers, we'll fire them on the spot, thus saving many troubles,"
"Okay."
In Song Bu's eyes, most of the people at the Grey Deer Research Institute besides a few researchers were just muddying the waters for high benefits, and there might even be spies from other institutes among them.
But what did that have to do with him?
He was just a big layabout pulled in to help; surely they didn't expect a retiree like him to take on management responsibilities?
That was out of the question! Read latest chapters at empire
"Brother Huang, come to my study."
Song Yun sent a message to Huang Baoding.
Three minutes later, Huang Baoding knocked on the door and only after hearing Song Yun's "come in," did he open the door.
"Brother Huang, there's a task that I need you to handle. You have full control over every step; use whatever resources you need, and if something's out of reach, use my name."
Song Yun handed a piece of paper to Huang Baoding.
After glancing at it, Huang Baoding looked at Song Yun with a bit of shock.
"Boss Song, this Zhou Hao is Miss Si Yi's cousin, right? Are we really okay doing this?"
"To deal with a gambler, we must completely defeat him in the field he thinks he's good at, even make him taste death! Only then will he completely cut off this path afterwards,"
Song Yun spoke with an unquestionable tone, "Get it done. I hope to see this mess cleaned up by tonight."
"Yes, sir!"
Huang Baoding didn't say anything more; after all, this was Boss Song's family affair, and though he was a trusted aide, he couldn't meddle too much!
With the matter at hand finally taken care of, Song Yun supported his chin with his right hand and spoke idly, "Now I'll just wait for the results with nothing else to do."
During the day, Song Yun had been cooped up at home, playing games and watching movies with several women.
Only after receiving a message from Huang Baoding did Song Yun glance at Ye Qingqing, who had been coaxed to sleep, and tiptoed out of the room.
Elsewhere, Zhou Hao had just been woken up from sleep by the noise of endless messages flashing through the chat group, and hesitantly dialed the number of the thug from yesterday.
"Hello, who is this?"
The thug's voice came through irritated.
"Bro, it's me, Zhou Hao, I'm the guy who paid respect to you today!"
Zhou Hao said obsequiously.
"Oh, what's up?"
"I saw in the group chat that there'd be another round tonight; is that true?"
"It's true. The authorities are cracking down lately, and the boss wants to hold one last game before we take a break for a while, so if you miss tonight, you'll have to wait a couple of months."
"Ah! How can this be."
Zhou Hao stuttered, "Then... did you talk with Uncle Gang? Is everything arranged?"
"Aren't you stating the obvious! If you're in, you're in; if not, forget it, I'm busy!"
After hanging up the phone, the thug looked at the boss in front of him and Huang Baoding sitting in the chair, and respectfully said, "Boss, he's taken the bait."
"Hmm, there must be no mistakes, understand?"
The boss was a man in his forties, his face covered with horizontal flesh and a scar on his eyelid, both unequivocally signaling that this was a man not to be trifled with.
"Yes, I'll go get busy then."
The gangster bowed his head subserviently and left.
"Brother Huang, are you satisfied with our preparations?"
Once the gangster had left, he stood up and bent over to ask Huang Baoding, who was beside him.
After all, this man was a confidant of Boss Song!
Who was he?
A thug who drifted in the gray zones, one who could end up caught by the metaphorical sewing machine any day, and even if he was big in the business, it was still an illegal livelihood.
But today, if he could connect with Boss Song through Huang Baoding... No! Even just connecting with Huang Baoding would be enough for him to live without worries for the rest of his life!
So, after verifying his identity, this man broke the rules he had set for himself, wanting to get Zhou Hao, that fish, to bite the hook quickly!
"We'll see the results."
Although Huang Baoding was not interested in this thug, since it was Boss Song's matter, he could only sit quietly here.
An hour later, Song Yun arrived at this desolate place.
From the outside, it looked like an unfinished building, but to one's surprise, everything was available inside.
Food, drinks, entertainment, everything was readily available.
Song Yun made a call to Huang Baoding and then waited at the entrance for the other party to come and receive him.
A few minutes later, Huang Baoding and the man with a nervous face came out.
"Manager Huang has arranged everything, now we just wait for the fish to bite."
Huang Baoding whispered.
"Hmm."
Song Yun responded and glanced at the gangster with a face full of horizontal flesh; his legs started to tremble involuntarily under that look.
"Are you the boss of this place?"
"Yes, yes, yes, my name is Chang Chun, you can just call me Little Chang. It's an honor to serve you!"
Chang Chun dared not reveal the slightest hint of underestimating the other, for although Song Yun looked young, his bearing was greater than anyone else he had ever seen!
He even felt that Song Yun was not as amiable as he appeared; once he made a move, it would be with the force of thunderous power to shatter his opponents!
"Hmm, take me somewhere to wait."
Chang Chun obeyed and led Song Yun to an area on the second floor, where they could overlook all the activities below.
Song Yun couldn't help feeling impressed; despite being a thug, Chang Chun's abilities to read facial expressions and moods were superior to many.
"Boss Song, the environment here is simple and the tea isn't good, I hope you can bear with it."
Chang Chun offered a cup of tea with trepidation.
He was just afraid that Song Yun would dispose of them all if he was not satisfied.
"Hmm, thank you."
Song Yun took the teacup, though he didn't plan to drink it, but he had given enough face to the other.
Chang Chun also stood excitedly beside Song Yun, waiting quietly for what were to come.
Down below.
Zhou Hao first kept winning money, and soon reached the mark of one hundred thousand. If this continued, not only could he earn back yesterday's capital, but he would even make a fortune!
"Keep it going, keep it going! Today, I'm going to clean out the house!"
Zhou Hao laughed boisterously, a far cry from his meek demeanor the previous day.
"Hahaha, I won again, won again!"
Zhou Hao excitedly gathered all the banknotes in front of him into his embrace, already planning the good life he would lead after winning today's gamble!
