CHAPTER 507: CHAPTER 508: SU CHANGFENG IS UNRELIABLE

"You all keep an eye on them. No one is allowed to touch them before I return." Chen Ergou said to several people, then turned and added, "Confiscate the phones."

After Chen Xueqi and Wang Feifei handed over their phones, they were locked in a small bedroom, which was slightly better than the previous room but still emitted a foul smell.

"Sister Xueqi, what should we do now?" Wang Feifei said fearfully to Chen Xueqi.

In fact, Chen Xueqi was equally worried. If she fell into the hands of someone like Chen Ergou, it would be a permanent stain on her reputation. However, she had to remain calm in front of Wang Feifei.

"Don’t worry, I can think of a way to get out." Chen Xueqi reassured her.

"Sister Xueqi, do you think Old Ye will come to rescue us?" Wang Feifei suddenly said.

Chen Xueqi looked at Wang Feifei in confusion. Why would she mention that good-for-nothing at this time?

"Sister Xueqi, in the few seconds they weren’t looking at me, I sent our location to Old Ye. But I couldn’t send any other messages before the phone was confiscated." Wang Feifei explained.

Chen Xueqi scoffed and said, "If you had sent the location to someone else, we might have been rescued. But that coward wouldn’t dare come to save us."

Listening to Chen Xueqi’s words, Wang Feifei seemed somewhat desperate. She had randomly opened her WeChat and accidentally sent the location to Su Changfeng. If things were indeed as Chen Xueqi said, then no one would be able to rescue them.

"Why do you have Old Ye’s WeChat? I already told you not to get too close to him, why didn’t you listen?" Given the current situation, they couldn’t protect themselves, yet Chen Xueqi didn’t forget to blame Wang Feifei, strongly indicating her intense hatred towards Su Changfeng.

"Sister Xueqi, I just added him after we first met." Wang Feifei said, lowering her head.

"Not listening to the words of the wise will lead to suffering. You’ll regret it sooner or later." Chen Xueqi said.

Chen Xueqi was angry with Wang Feifei’s actions but felt helpless. In Chen Xueqi’s eyes, Wang Feifei didn’t understand what kind of person Su Changfeng was, and pinning hope on him was a major mistake.

A coward like him probably wouldn’t dare enter the Urban Village, let alone save them.

"Sister Xueqi, is it really impossible for Old Ye to come and save us?" Wang Feifei said, feeling especially fearful. She had just sent the location to Su Changfeng, placing all her hopes on him. If things were indeed as Chen Xueqi said, she would be utterly despairing.

Chen Ergou didn’t look like a good person at all, and his actions were very direct. Wang Feifei didn’t want to fall into the hands of someone like him.

"You might as well pray to God for our safety; don’t count on that guy to come and save us." Chen Xueqi said with disdain.

After two incidents, she felt she knew enough about Su Changfeng. He wouldn’t possibly come to this place to rescue them.

"Why do you say that?" Wang Feifei asked.

Chen Xueqi looked at Wang Feifei, who still seemed hopeful, and replied helplessly, "Before, when I was jogging in the neighborhood, he saw me arguing with someone but didn’t say a word. And when I went clubbing, someone touched me, and Su Changfeng saw it and ran away quickly, even though this had nothing to do with him. Isn’t this just cowardly behavior?"

Wang Feifei leaned against the wall, thinking that if what Chen Xueqi said was true, then her message was meaningless.

Seeing Wang Feifei’s expression, Chen Xueqi comforted her, "I told you Su Changfeng isn’t a good person. You don’t need to be disappointed with him; you just picked the wrong person."

Wang Feifei lowered her head powerlessly. Maybe, just as Chen Xueqi said, she shouldn’t have any affection for Su Changfeng, nor should she trust him.

Elsewhere, when Chen Ergou saw Ma Qiang, his face showed no disdain but instead nodded humbly.

In the Urban Village, Ma Qiang had a particularly high status, and even though Chen Ergou wasn’t with him, he had to respect him and call him Brother Qiang.

"Brother Qiang, did you ask me here for something?" Chen Ergou asked cautiously.

"Chen Ergou, I just received the latest news; someone intends to develop the Urban Village. This is a great opportunity for us to make big money." Ma Qiang said to Chen Ergou.

Chen Ergou looked puzzled. He hadn’t heard such important news, which seemed impossible.

And there’s plenty of benefits in this matter. Would Ma Qiang really tell him voluntarily?

Given Ma Qiang’s greedy nature, he definitely wouldn’t share such a lucrative deal with others.

"Brother Qiang, who did you hear this from? Are you sure it’s not a rumor?" Chen Ergou asked.

"Recently, the Ye Group has been making a lot of noise. They plan to rebuild the Urban Village, so it’s unlikely to be false." Ma Qiang replied.

The Ye Group’s capital strength displayed recently had a significant influence in Jiang City. If they indeed intend to carry out this plan, there’s a high chance it’s true.

However, Chen Ergou was puzzled why Ma Qiang would tell him this.

"Brother Qiang, if you have a task for me, just say it. I’ll definitely complete it, Chen Ergou promised.

Ma Qiang was satisfied with Chen Ergou’s attitude and nodded, "I really need your help now. Gather all the landlords from the Urban Village and tell them not to agree to demolishment without my consent."

Chen Ergou’s mind began to race. Seeing Ma Qiang’s plan, he aimed to control demolition rights himself and negotiate with the Ye Group for profit.

That would surely bring in a lot of money. If the negotiations succeeded, Ma Qiang might become wealthy because of it.

"Brother Qiang, this is a bit tricky. There are many landlords involved." Chen Ergou pretended to be somewhat troubled.

Ma Qiang chuckled lightly. With Chen Ergou’s ability, it wouldn’t be difficult at all. His behavior simply indicated his desire to profit alongside.

"Rest assured, once it’s done, you’ll get your share of the benefits." Ma Qiang said.

"Brother Qiang, it’s settled then. I’ll handle the landlords; you manage the Ye Group." Chen Ergou said excitedly.

Just then, one of Ma Qiang’s subordinates whispered to him, and Ma Qiang’s expression changed, showing a trace of panic.
