After listening to what these two people had to say.

I shuddered and felt a chill run down my spine.

Although I guessed that Liu Chaoyang was ruthless and two-faced.

But I never imagined he would be so ruthless as to commit murder!

Fortunately, these two people told me the truth.

I immediately became extremely wary of Liu Chaoyang.

So I continued, "What evidence is there to prove that Liu Chaoyang killed Sun Lei?"

When the two of them heard me ask that question...

They immediately realized what was happening.

"You're not thinking of reporting Liu Chaoyang, are you?"

"You absolutely mustn't do that, because not only will you fail to get him into prison, but you'll also put your own life in danger!"

"Besides, if you really report Liu Chaoyang, he will definitely know that the two of us told you about this!"

"......"

I understand how those two people feel.

After all, nobody wants to get involved in a life-or-death struggle.

But I have already experienced the reformatory incident.

My experience there taught me a profound lesson.

Destiny must be firmly in one's own hands!

If you place all your hopes for survival on other people.

Sooner or later they will end up in a miserable and pitiful state!

Like me!

This is a bloody example!

But now, I've woken up and I'm no longer as love-obsessed as before.

In order to get useful information from the two people.

I assured both of them.

"Please believe me, I will not rashly report Liu Chaoyang."

"Instead, we will gather evidence little by little until it is enough to completely destroy his reputation, and even to the point where he is sentenced to death!"

But it's a pity.

My ideas are grand.

But the two working-class people in front of me had the mindset of ordinary citizens.

They don't care about any of that.

They can't see that far ahead.

They just asked me, "When can we expect to receive our wages?"

This question left me speechless.

Normally, the proper thing to do would be to comfort both of them.

Then I assured them that I would definitely help them get their wages back.

They probably say this kind of high-sounding, polite things.

But I did not do that at that time.

Instead, ask them.

How much money does Liu Chaoyang owe you?

One of them said, "He owed me two months' salary. I earn 2850 yuan a month, so he owes me a total of 5700 yuan. This is my livelihood..."

I looked at the other person with a complicated and heavy expression.

Another person said, "I'm alright, I'm just owed a month's salary, 2780 yuan..."

The other person looked at me and even offered a compromise.

"I'm not asking for two months' salary all at once, even just one month's salary, or even half a month's salary would be fine."

I looked at the other person, who had a worried expression and was sighing in his voice.

This makes me feel very sad.

They are all ordinary people from the bottom of society.

Everyone is having a hard time.

Why make things difficult for each other?

So I said, "I can lend you this money first, but I want to get it back from you when you pay your salaries."

The two of them immediately understood what I meant.

I was simply transferring the wages that Liu Chaoyang owed them to myself in a roundabout way.

Upon hearing that there was money, hope immediately returned to the two men's cloudy eyes!

They nodded eagerly.

Late at night.

I gritted my teeth and decided to borrow the money from Lin Xia.

Actually, I'm quite embarrassed too.

During this period, all of Lin Xia's money has been used for food, clothing, housing, and transportation.

If this continues, I'll really become Lin Xia's kept man.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with being a gigolo.

But living a dignified life through self-reliance is a much brighter prospect!

I was holding the new phone that Lin Xia had bought for me.

Call her.

However, the call took quite a while to make.

Lin Xia did not answer the phone.

This is making me a little anxious.

I felt a surge of anxiety. "Lin Xia, answer the phone!"

Perhaps it's because Lin Xia is in a meeting.

Perhaps it's because she's busy with other things right now.

Ultimately, Lin Xia did not answer my call.

I saw two people looking at me with hopeful eyes.

Their innocent eyes made me feel very sad.

The thought of letting them down is unbearable.

I feel very sad.

If I had known, I wouldn't have made that promise so quickly in the first place.

Just when I was in a dilemma.

The name Gu Yao suddenly flashed through my mind.

At this point, I'm afraid the only person I can contact on my phone is Gu Yao.

Because I already have very few contacts in my phone.

There are only four people in total.

Gu Yao, Aunt Gu, Zhao Ming, and Lin Xia.

After eliminating three people using the process of elimination.

I was forced to contact Gu Yao to temporarily resolve my immediate crisis.

Ultimately, I left in a state of extreme helplessness.

He dialed Gu Yao's number anyway.

Gu Yao answered the phone very quickly.

Maybe she's playing on her phone right now.

"Hello? Lu Yi, why are you calling me in the middle of the night? What do you want?"

Gu Yao's tone was different from before.

I thought Gu Yao would speak in a very aloof manner, with a natural air of keeping people at arm's length.

However, at this moment, I heard Gu Yao's voice.

It actually carries a lively, playful, and even provocative tone?

I immediately cleared my throat.

He said to Gu Yao in a very serious tone, "I want to borrow some money from you."

Gu Yao was somewhat surprised.

"Lin Xia didn't give you any money?"

After saying that, she immediately changed her mind and quickly moved on to the next sentence.

How much money do you want to borrow from me?

"8480 yuan, I don't want a single penny more!"

"it is good!"

Gu Yao's quick and easy agreement surprised me.

I heard Gu Yao tapping on the screen over the phone.

After a few slaps.

I received a text message.

The message above reminded me that Gu Yao had already transferred 8480 yuan to me.

The money has finally arrived!

A smile involuntarily crept onto my lips.

This makes me feel good.

I said, "Gu Yao, thank you for your help in this emergency. I will pay you back as soon as possible."

If it were before, Gu Yao would definitely have said something to lecture me at this time.

For example, they might tell me to save money, to have a good money sense, or not to spend money on things I shouldn't.

I had even gotten used to being prepared to listen to Gu Yao's lecture.

But something unexpected happened to me.

Gu Yao didn't scold me.

She simply replied with a calm, "Okay, no problem!"

And that was the end of our call.

I looked at my phone, suddenly smiled, and then shook my head helplessly.

This was probably the most relaxed chat I've ever had with Gu Yao.

Then, I quickly divided the money into two parts and gave them to the two people in front of me.

Both of them received the money, and their faces showed expressions of joy like those of someone who had just had a bountiful harvest.

They were very happy and said they wanted to take me out for drinks and barbecue to thank me properly.

But I told them that they don't earn money easily, so I'll just treat them to drinks and barbecue.

At least I can still afford to eat.

Taking advantage of the effects of the alcohol, I had the opportunity to extract more secrets about Liu Chaoyang from the two of them.
