"Boss! Why are there police?"
Inside the warehouse, some people had already lost their composure.
"Impossible! Only a few of us knew about this operation. Did you snitch to the police!"
"No, Big Brother, we didn't!"
The boss looked around, and in the end, it seemed unlikely.
But if not, how could the police have found this place so quickly?
Or was there something fishy about this?
Meanwhile, outside the door, Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing, along with several bodyguards, were gradually approaching.
Their plan was to use fake police voices to distract the attention of those inside towards the warehouse entrance.
Then, they would lead the bodyguards to circle around from the back, and when they least expected it, take the people away.
With insufficient manpower, they could only resort to clever tactics.
Wei Yumeng and her group circled around to the back of the warehouse and found a window that led inside. Although the window was a bit high, it shouldn't be a problem for these trained bodyguards.
Wei Yumeng pulled up a floor plan on her phone, which she had just gotten from Fang Xun. This map showed the layout of the warehouse.
"We are currently here. Entering through the window leads to the goods storage area. You can use the goods to block their line of sight and infiltrate."
Mu Linjing pondered, "There's a small compartment here. Could they be keeping the person here?"
After all, there was no other special place in the entire warehouse.
"Indeed. If you can't find the person later, you should investigate this place as well," Wei Yumeng said.
The bodyguards understood and were already planning how to get in.
After re-examining the floor plan, Mu Linjing felt that their plan was indeed perfect. The other party probably wouldn't have expected them to use such a method.
However, at this moment, footsteps could be heard from all around them.
Immediately, over a dozen men surrounded them.
"I knew something was strange about this. Fortunately, I installed surveillance cameras around here. Otherwise, we would have fallen into your trap."
"Boss is truly wise."
The boss looked at Wei Yumeng, "Madam Zhan, what are you doing here? Why have you come to a place like this all of a sudden?"
Seeing that a stealthy rescue was no longer possible, Wei Yumeng had no choice but to demand the person openly.
"You should know why I'm here. Hand the person over."
"Hand over whom? Madam Zhan, what are you talking about?"
"Didn't you take my aunt away?" Wei Yumeng questioned.
Mu Linjing also spoke up, "Don't think you can fool us by doing this. We've been watching you for a long time. We know everything you've done."
"That's strange. Although we brothers use this place as a stronghold, we haven't done anything strange. What do you know?"
Wei Yumeng frowned, knowing that these people wouldn't easily admit that Chang Xiuxiang was in their hands.
Moreover, their current manpower was far inferior to the people in front of them. Although there were only a dozen or so here, who knew how many more were guarding the warehouse?
Wei Yumeng could not let these people go, nor could she give up on saving Chang Xiuxiang.
But she had also walked into a dead end. What should she do?
Wei Yumeng even wondered how Zhan Mohan would handle this situation if he were here.
"Ah!" Suddenly, a scream came from the warehouse.
This was followed by more screams.
The boss in front of them instantly changed his expression. He abandoned the entanglement with Wei Yumeng and rushed back into the warehouse.
Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing were also puzzled about what had happened and hurried to follow.
They saw Zhan Mohan and Niu Chengzhi arriving at the warehouse.
Other bodyguards had already taken down the guards one by one.
"Cheng Zhi, you've come to save me!" Chang Xiuxiang's eyes were only on Niu Chengzhi.
However, Zhan Mohan's words poured cold water on her: "When I found him, he was preparing to escape."
"What?" Chang Xiuxiang looked incredulous.
Wei Yumeng rushed over to help Chang Xiuxiang up, "Aunt, what did these people do to you?"
But Chang Xiuxiang just looked at Niu Chengzhi, a hint of hatred in her eyes, "You really planned to abandon me and the child and run away? You would really watch me being sold by these people?"
Niu Chengzhi felt a bit helpless about Chang Xiuxiang's anger, "I had no choice but to run. There are other loan sharks who have been pressuring me."
Chang Xiuxiang finally couldn't take it anymore. The resentment that had been suppressed in her heart seemed to explode all at once.
She strode forward and slapped Niu Chengzhi.
She had been trying her best to find solutions for Niu Chengzhi, borrowing money, all because she still loved him.
But did Niu Chengzhi still love her? In Niu Chengzhi's eyes, it seemed to be all about gambling now.
Wei Yumeng saw Chang Xiuxiang's choice. Wei Yumeng was relieved by this outcome.
She had never liked this uncle-in-law. Now that Chang Xiuxiang had finally let go of this burden, she should take her child and live her own life.
Zhan Mohan looked at the boss, "We'll give you Niu Chengzhi, and we'll take Chang Xiuxiang."
"Mr. Zhan, this..." The boss hesitated.
They could still use Chang Xiuxiang as a source of income, but what could they do with Niu Chengzhi?
How would they explain this to their superiors?
But Zhan Mohan just gave them a glare, and they instinctively took a few steps back.
No one would confront Zhan Mohan head-on; it would be suicidal.
Wei Yumeng and Mu Linjing left the warehouse with Chang Xiuxiang. Zhan Mohan and the other bodyguards followed.
From now on, Niu Chengzhi would face everything on his own.
However, as soon as they got back into the car, Chang Xiuxiang started crying.
She had genuinely thought she had seen through Niu Chengzhi and could decisively leave him.
But why, after doing all that, was she now filled with reluctance?
She felt that there were many threads connecting her and Niu Chengzhi, some representing love, some representing family, and their shared memories.
Niu Chengzhi wasn't like this from the beginning. It was a setback at work that led him to self-destruct.
Chang Xiuxiang had tried to save him from that state, but she hadn't succeeded.
Thinking this, Chang Xiuxiang felt that everything that had happened was also her responsibility.
Wei Yumeng saw Chang Xiuxiang trembling slightly and sighed helplessly.
She knew that Chang Xiuxiang might not easily accept the current outcome, but as an outsider, this outcome was the best.
Niu Chengzhi would pay the price for his actions, and the innocent Chang Xiuxiang would finally be free from his clutches.
