Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

Chapter 265: Don’t give up the whole forest for one tree

The moment the kidnapper leader was shot, he felt all the nerves in his body paralyzed.

When the numbness gradually dissipated, an intense burning pain spread throughout his body, as if wasps were stinging him continuously.

The kidnapper leader gritted his teeth, turned over, looked at Cao Yue standing in front of him, and said in a trembling voice: "Good... good shooting skills!"

Cao Yue fired eight bullets almost in the blink of an eye, and every bullet hit the center of his eyebrows.

He had never heard of such hand speed and shooting skills.

Cao Yue said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense! Where is my Mercedes-Benz?"

"Sold... Sold. Both cars were sold... Sold to a boss named Dasha in Saigon..."

Under the powerful pressure from Cao Yue, the kidnapper leader did not insist and told the truth.

"You kidnapped Tong Keren. Is there a mastermind behind this?" Cao Yue continued to ask.

Hearing this question, the kidnapper leader looked hesitant.

Cao Yue sneered, raised his hand and fired a shot, directly hitting the outside of the kidnapper's thigh.

"what--!"

The kidnapper leader screamed, with fear in his eyes.

The bullet was just a little bit away from taking his life.

"Next shot, I'll aim at the middle!" Cao Yue threatened.

"I said, I said..."

The kidnapper leader was terrified. In his eyes, Cao Yue was an absolute devil.

He knew that he was going to die today.

But as a man, you must never become a eunuch before you die.

This was his last bit of stubbornness.

One minute later.

Cao Yue shot the kidnapper leader dead and looked at his relieved eyes, seeming to be thinking about something.

The kidnappers had no idea who the mastermind was, and they were also hired by a man called "Big Mouth Quan".

However, the kidnapper leader overheard that "Big Mouth Quan" often called a man called "Brother Biao".

Cao Yue now finally understood why all the gangsters in Hong Kong had nicknames.

It's very difficult to find someone just by the two names "Brother Biao" and "Dazuiquan".

It seems that I can only find Big D.

After cleaning up the scene, Cao Yue only found a little over 20,000 yuan.

A bunch of poor people!

The kidnappers sold the two cars of Cao Yue and Tong Keren for more than 100,000 yuan, but most of the money was used to buy arms.

Cao Yue used the space to dig a big pit and buried all the bodies in it.

After cleaning the scene, Cao Yue drove to a mountain more than ten kilometers away.

Walk to the wooden house on the top of the mountain.

There were no other kidnappers in the house. After opening the wooden door and using the X-ray function, it was easy to find a long wooden box and an ammunition box under the wooden board.

There were three automatic rifles and five pistols in the wooden box. In addition to bullets, there were also twenty grenades in the ammunition box.

Cao Yue put all the weapons into the space and left quickly.

……

The next afternoon, Cao Yue arrived at the Tong family's villa in Repulse Bay as promised.

Led by the housekeeper, Cao Yue came to the living room.

"Ayue, you are here."

When Tong Keren saw Cao Yue coming, she immediately ran over.

When Tong Yinghao saw this scene, his eyes were filled with doting yet a bit of helplessness.

"Xiao Cao is here, come and sit down." Tong Yinghao stood up and greeted him.

Compared to the last time they met, Tong Yinghao looked at Cao Yue with more kindness this time, just like an elder looking at a close junior.

After the three of them sat down, Tong Yinghao looked at the couple sitting together gently and said with a smile: "Xiao Cao, you have only been in Hong Kong for a month, and you have become the youngest billionaire in Hong Kong. You are really young and promising!"

Cao Yue said modestly: "I became a billionaire only by luck, it's not a skill."

"Haha, sometimes luck is also part of strength."

Tong Yinghao laughed twice, then changed the subject and asked, "However, you can't always rely on luck when doing business. Success or failure is ultimately determined by strength."

"Xiao Cao, I'm very optimistic about you. Are you interested in working for me?"

Cao Yue looked embarrassed when he heard this.

Tong Keren immediately said, "Dad, this is Ah Yue's first time visiting our house, please don't force him."

Tong Yinghao smiled and said, "Xiao Yue, you don't have to answer me so quickly. Tell me your decision when you have figured it out."

Tong Yinghao believes that Cao Yue is a smart person and will make a wise choice.

Cao Yue breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly asked, "Uncle, Keren and I were kidnapped together, and I rescued her. Aren't you worried that this is a game within a game?"

"You mean the self-torture tactic?" Tong Yinghao shook his head with a smile, staring at Cao Yue sharply, "I have been very good at judging people in my life. Although you are not a good person, I believe you will not do such a stupid thing that will backfire."

"Because, with your appearance and character, it would be easy for you to get close to a pretty girl and win her favor."

When Tong Keren heard Tong Yinghao's comment that Cao Yue was not a good person, she immediately became unhappy and pouted her lips and said in a long tone: "Dad——!"

Cao Yue was also at a loss for words, "Uncle, I'm not a good person, how dare you allow Keren to date me?"

Cao Yue really wanted to say: Lao Tong, you have a really big heart!

He even began to doubt whether Tong Keren was his biological daughter.

Tong Yinghao said seriously: "If you are really a pure and honest person, I will never let you get close to Keren, and I will not take the trouble to train you."

"Honest people cannot adapt to the treacherous business world, let alone support a family business."

Cao Yue was stunned when he heard this. What Tong Yinghao said made a lot of sense.

Since Tong Yinghao said it so bluntly, Cao Yue asked directly: "Aren't you worried that I am trying to get close to your daughter just because I am greedy for the Tong family's money?"

"Are you?" Tong Yinghao asked back.

Cao Yue glanced at Tong Keren, shook his head and said, "Of course not."

The next second, Cao Yue added: "What I actually covet is Ke Ren's beauty!"

As soon as these words came out.

Tong Yinghao laughed even more happily.

"Xiao Cao, I like your straightforwardness. You are right. My daughter is indeed the most beautiful."

Tong Keren patted Cao Yue and leaned on his shoulder with a blushing face.

After that, it was basically Tong Yinghao and Cao Yue who talked, with Tong Keren occasionally interjecting.

Tong Yinghao discovered that Cao Yue’s knowledge and vision were nothing like those of someone who had just come from the mainland.

He also has unique insights into the questions he raises.

This made Tong Yinghao appreciate it even more.

……

In the villa garden.

Tong Keren said happily: "Ayue, my father likes you very much."

Cao Yue said arrogantly: "Of course, I am a charming man who is loved by everyone, flowers bloom when I see them, and cars get flat tires when I see them!"

Tong Keren listened to Cao Yue's humorous words and laughed so hard that she trembled.

After laughing, Tong Keren suddenly stopped and looked at Cao Yue and said, "My father asked you to work with him just now, but you didn't seem happy about it. Do you have any concerns?"

Cao Yue naturally would not tell Tong Keren that even if she was a lush tree, he would not give up the entire forest.

He sighed and said, "When I first came to Hong Kong Island, those unscrupulous tabloids ridiculed me as a gigolo. If I agree to my uncle today, wouldn't that confirm this title?"

"So, I have to prove myself with my own abilities!"

Cao Yue's words were powerful, and Tong Keren's eyes became brighter and brighter. "Ayue, I believe in you. You can do it."

"Just now when we were having dinner, you said that your jewelry company was going to open a branch store, but you haven't found a suitable store yet. It just so happens that I have a lot of businesses under my name. I'll take you to have a look tomorrow, and if it's suitable, I'll give it to you."

"Also, I have a lot of friends who love jewelry. They are all wealthy ladies. I can bring them to the charity dinner you host. With them taking the lead, it will definitely help to make the jewelry company famous."

Cao Yue: “…”

Got it!

What I just said was in vain.

Cao Yue originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Tong Keren's pitiful look, he had no choice but to accept it.

Ugh!
