“By the way, tomorrow when people come from the head office, there’ll be at least twenty of them, right? It’d be so inconvenient for that many to cram onto an airport shuttle, might as well just rent a minibus,” Xu Fei mused.
He considered his slight unfamiliarity with the area and thought about asking Huang Chengyun, but then he recalled the guy’s wobbly figure as he left the bar and realised he’d be useless tonight.
So Xu Fei decided to search online himself, after all, with the internet these days, anything you wanted was just a quick search away.
He opened his browser and typed in “car rental,” the page loaded, and a flood of colourful ads filled the screen.
To avoid any pitfalls, Xu Fei eventually picked a website with a relatively clean and simple interface and placed an order.
With that done, he set his phone on the bedside table and drifted off to sleep.
Meanwhile, Wei Xinghuo, having received Xu Fei’s order, was gleefully imagining tomorrow’s revenge.
“Xu Fei, of all the people to mess with, you just had to keep crossing me time and again, tomorrow we’ll settle old scores and new ones together!” he sneered.
The night deepened, though the capital still glittered with dazzling lights, most people had already slipped into their dreams.
Suddenly, a dark figure flickered through the night sky, darting straight towards the depths of an alley.
The figure’s destination was none other than Gong Zisheng’s home.
Arriving at Gong Zisheng’s courtyard house, the shadow slipped into a hidden corner, crouching there patiently.
Time passed, how long wasn’t clear, but when the shadow finally saw Gong Zisheng appear in the courtyard, it muttered to itself, “Could it be… even you failed? Looks like my father’s vengeance can’t be avenged…”
With that, the shadow vanished once more, melting into the darkness of the night.
The next morning, Xu Fei woke up and glanced at his phone, it was already nine o’clock.
There was a message from Lin Qingxue, a list of names and the flight schedule for the head office team arriving.
“They’ll reach the capital’s airport around eleven, guess I’d better get ready and head out,” Xu Fei said to himself.
He got up, washed, ate breakfast, and once he’d sorted everything, he set off in his car.
His first stop wasn’t the airport, but a rental car company he’d contacted last night.
Luckily, it wasn’t far from his hotel, just a few minutes’ drive.
Stepping out of the car, Xu Fei met with the rental company staff, who had already prepared a beige minibus.
Since everything was set, Xu Fei didn’t waste time, he hopped in with the rental company’s driver and headed straight for the capital’s airport.
Once Xu Fei and the minibus were on their way, the rental company staff immediately called Wei Xinghuo.
“Brother Xing, that guy’s on the move!”
“Got it, keep me posted if anything changes!”
Wei Xinghuo then set out himself, staying in touch with the minibus driver the whole way.
He’d already driven to the planned ambush spot with his crew, after waiting there for a while with no sign of Zhou Jingshan, he couldn’t help but call, “Oi, where the hell are you? How come I still don’t see you, you planning to ditch me or what?”
