968 None of Your Business!

Once Fatty sent all the gamblers to the detention center, he rushed back to report the situation to Zou Ming.

Thank you readers!

“Brother Ming, we’ve brought everyone back. Some of the family members have already gone to pay the fine. Our guys are also in the process of reeducating them. Do you have any other arrangements?” Fatty asked while panting heavily.

“Come with me to the hospital to visit the injured parties. Let’s resolve this matter as soon as possible,” Zou Ming said with a sigh.

Qiao Yu waited the entire afternoon but Su Yang did not appear. After he told her last night that he would bring her money and meat coupons, she had felt excited the entire night. It seemed to her that it had been for nothing. In the morning, there was no sign of Su Yang at all. She still had to rely on the five dollars which Su Yang had given her yesterday.

If Su Yang continued to stay away, she would not be able to survive the next week. She only had enough coal for another four days at most. She was too embarrassed to ask the landlord for any free coal. Yesterday, she had used a small piece of lard belonging to the landlord. Today, the landlord had removed all the valuable things in the kitchen, including the salt. There was currently nothing in the kitchen except the cooking pot.

!!

“How petty. I just used that little bit of lard. As if you have anything fantastic!” Qiao Mei sat on the bed and muttered to herself.

Instead of wasting her time in this dingy room, she might as well go around and look for clues related to Li Gui and the others. Once she could find them, she would have found money and accommodation.

Qiao Yu made her way to the entrance of the cinema based on her memory of the route. Going by Li Gui’s previous schedule, now should be the time when her business was doing the best.

However, after Qiao Yu went there, there were no women around at all, let alone being able to sight Li Gui. Qiao Yu hurriedly went to the main entrance of the cinema to check on the movie screenings of the day. There were screenings all the way past 9 p.m., so why was Li Gui not here?

Just as Qiao Yu was about to leave dejectedly, she suddenly realized that Zhao Fei had appeared near the cinema with a lot of popcorn in his arms. She did not know Zhao Fei, but she knew the smell of Li Gui’s popcorn. From the packaging and the smell, these were definitely Li Gui’s goods!

“Big brother! Wait a moment!” Qiao Yu called out to Zhao Fei who was about to leave.

Zhao Fei put on his salesman smile and spoke to Qiao Yu nicely, “Do you want to buy popcorn? It’s 50 cents a pack. If it doesn’t taste good, feel free to come back and look for me. There’s a guaranteed refund!”

Qiao Mei took a pack of popcorn from Zhao Fei and looked at it. The way that the ribbon was knotted and the smell of popcorn confirmed her thoughts.

“Big brother, do you make this popcorn yourself or buy it from someone else?” Qiao Yu asked.

Zhao Fei quickly snatched back the pack of popcorn. Qiao Yu was not the first person to ask him about this. Ever since he started selling popcorn, many of his peers had come to look for him and offered to work with him, but he had rejected all of them. He was the only distributor of Li Gui’s popcorn! He would never share this business with anyone!

“It’s none of your business! If you don’t want to buy, don’t waste my time,” Zhao Fei said sulkily. After saying that, he got on the three-wheeled vehicle and quickly left the cinema. It was almost time to meet Li Gui.

Qiao Yu could not catch up with Zhao Fei, so she planned to go home first and come back tomorrow to hassle him until she could find new clues.

On the way back, she even passed by Su Yang’s house. It was quiet and there was no one around. It was as if the entire place had been emptied of its occupants overnight. There was not even any smell of food.

“How can there be no one… Isn’t it mealtime now?” Qiao Yu mustered her courage and slowly walked forward, relying on her memories to find Su Yang’s house door.

Just as Qiao Yu was still wondering if there was anyone in the house, a man’s voice suddenly sounded from behind her.

“Why are you sneaking around in front of my house?” Su Liang asked with a frown.

Qiao Yu quickly turned around and retreated guiltily until she fell on the steps. Su Liang had gone drinking with his scoundrel friends during the day and had rushed back when he heard that something had happened to Old Madam Fan.

“I’m just here to take a look… It’s nothing! I’ll get going first!” Qiao Yu said nervously.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
