"Meng Hao, aren’t you being a bit too despicable?" Zhang Lu approached Meng Hao and spoke bluntly.
Meng Hao’s expression twisted in confusion, "Officer Zhang, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean? Don’t you know? Let’s be straightforward here. You’ve sent people to block Mengyao’s path, simply wanting to use underhanded tricks to eliminate a bidding contender. Besides Chu Group, no one else is your match." Zhang Lu sneered.
"Officer Zhang, don’t slander me. Even if it’s for the bid, I would win the project in front of Mengyao, and I disdain using such dirty methods." Meng Hao was angry. Zhang Lu’s words were simply insulting to him, so of course, he was furious.
He was extremely confident that there would be no unexpected issues; the Jinluo Bay project was his.
He planned to win the project right in front of Mengyao and impress her. How could he possibly engage in anything else? Those shameful undertakings, he wouldn’t do them in front of Mengyao.
"Is that so? It seems you’re truly in the dark. Fierce Tiger Gang has caused a huge scene; all kinds of drivers are blocking the road for Mengyao, causing great traffic congestion." Zhang Lu saw that Meng Hao’s words were without falsehood, and said coldly, "Even though Fierce Tiger Gang has such influence, if they fall into my hands, I won’t be polite. Don’t brush off my words; mind your own business."
"Trying to touch my Fierce Tiger Gang with just you? Overestimating yourself." Meng Hao scoffed as he watched Zhang Lu’s departing figure.
He calmed himself and started contemplating Zhang Lu’s words. He suddenly felt that Zhang Lu’s words were entirely true. No other force but Fierce Tiger Gang could block Mengyao’s road like that.
"Damn it, who the hell dares to do such a thing behind my back? In business, I want to beat Mengyao with my own skills. Who dares use such despicable tactics? Do they have a death wish?" Meng Hao was furious.
"Young Master Meng, I’ve confirmed it. It is indeed Fierce Tiger Gang making moves." Flying Rat said respectfully.
"Get me Liu Li on the phone." Meng Hao said impatiently, with a murderous intent deep in his eyes.
"Yes." Flying Rat complied.
As soon as the Fierce Tiger Gang’s Great Gang Leader answered the phone, he respectfully said, "Young Master Meng, what are your instructions?"
"Instructions? Damn it, who gave you the guts to block Mengyao on the road? Do you have a death wish?" Meng Hao cursed right away.
"Young Master Meng, it’s a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding. Calm down, and I’ll handle it immediately. I don’t know exactly what’s happening, but the people below acted on their own. I thought it was your secret directive, so I didn’t stop them. I’ll resolve it right away." Liu Li was sweating coldly from the fright.
After giving a few reprimands, Meng Hao hung up the phone.
Liu Li indeed became restless, having already been aware of Lu Junwen’s actions as the Great Gang Leader of Fierce Tiger Gang. He didn’t think much, believing that Meng Hao had secretly instructed Lu Junwen.
"Great Gang Leader." Lu Junwen received Liu Li’s call and cautiously greeted him with a servile tone.
"Lu Junwen, are you courting death? Do you have crap in your head? Who gave you the guts to act recklessly?" Liu Li angrily scolded Lu Junwen.
"Great Gang Leader, please don’t be angry. I received an order from Young Master Meng. Someone approached me, requesting me to carry out this task, saying Meng didn’t want President Chu to appear at the bidding scene." Lu Junwen fearfully reported.
"You stupid pig, Young Master Meng doesn’t know about this, and now he’s furious. If Meng had such instructions, I wouldn’t be unaware!" Liu Li was furious, "Quickly resolve the matter, then prepare to be punished and await Meng’s handling."
"Ah?" Lu Junwen was both terrified and scared, trembling as he said, "How could it be ? That person clearly said it was Meng’s directive, instructing me to act covertly."
"Idiot, how have you not died of stupidity yet?" Liu Li hung up the phone in anger.
"A catastrophe is imminent." Lu Junwen was filled with despair, unaware of who had fooled him, but he was in danger.
He dared not hesitate. After giving orders to his subordinates, he hurriedly rushed to Fierce Tiger Gang headquarters, not knowing what punishment awaited him. It was clear it wouldn’t end well.
On the road, the congested traffic dispersed, moving in all directions.
At the bidding venue, Flying Rat saw Meng Hao was in a bad mood, seemingly about to vent his frustrations violently, and cautiously said, "Young Master Meng, what should we do now? The bidding is about to start, and even if President Chu arrives, she’ll probably be quite late."
"I’ll go speak to Mayor Niu and have him delay the bidding time." Meng Hao said indifferently.
Beside Mayor Niu were Zhang Lu, Shen Tingting, and Meng Hao.
The three of them shared the same sentiment, wishing to delay the bidding time.
To Zhang Lu and Shen Tingting, Mayor Niu viewed their words as orders he had to follow.
Yet regarding Meng Hao’s words, he felt angry and thought deeply as he glanced at Meng, "You bastard, right now you should be urging me to hold the bidding on schedule. By doing this, aren’t you putting me in a bind?"
Mayor Niu had no choice but to postpone the bidding time.
Ye Fan and Mengyao arrived at the bidding venue nearly an hour late.
Driving the two cars they abandoned on the road, watched over by the four women.
"You sure have a lot of guts, daring to do such brazen things."
"We have you as a friend, and it was under desperate circumstances that we acted out of line." Mengyao looked at Zhang Lu seriously and said, "We’ve already delayed. Will it impact the bidding, and what’s Mayor Niu’s attitude?"
"Great, I’ve become the one cleaning up the mess." Zhang Lu said with a mix of laughter and tears.
"No worries. After President Chu secures the project, when you have time, I need to learn something from you. Please don’t refuse." Shen Tingting said politely.
"Thank you, Miss Shen." Mengyao expressed gratitude.
