They had just picked up their wine glasses when they heard Li Wei’s words. They exchanged a very calm look and then grinned.
"Brother Li, looks like your relationship with this friend isn’t that good either. You don’t even have the other party’s key."
Glancing at them, Li Wei started bullshitting, "I did have the key originally, but she got mad recently and changed the lock. I want to sneak in and give her a surprise. I think something like this shouldn’t be hard for you guys, right?"
They exchanged another look, but this time they didn’t rush to respond...
This kind of thing really wasn’t difficult for them...
But they didn’t want to respond so directly, because they knew things definitely weren’t as simple as Li Wei made them sound.
And if they agreed too easily, they wouldn’t be able to maximize their profit.
So they habitually chose to keep silent for now.
...
"Looks like I still need to pave the way with money!"
Seeing their weird silence, Li Wei narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.
After muttering, he spoke lightly, "I know this is a bit troublesome for you, so I won’t make you help for nothing. As long as you help me get it done, I’ll give you one hundred thousand yuan. How about it?"
Hearing this price, their hearts stirred...
Just to pop a lock and they’d earn one hundred thousand yuan; that was a pretty good deal.
They looked at each other again, and after seeing the eagerness in each other’s eyes, they stopped staying silent and spoke up quickly.
"Brother Li, what money are you talking about? We’re friends. It’s only right for us to help you out, so you don’t need to pay us."
Hearing them say they didn’t want money, Li Wei sneered inwardly, but on the surface his expression stayed calm. "It’s exactly because you’re my friends that I can’t shortchange you. So don’t say anything more, just carry out my instructions."
"Alright!"
They agreed quickly, then looked at Li Wei and asked a bit hesitantly, "Brother Li, let us ask one more thing. This friend you’re going to this time isn’t someone with some super powerful background, right?"
All these years, the reason they’d been able to muddle along so steadily was because they knew where the lines were.
The kind of people they couldn’t afford to offend, they absolutely would not offend...
Hearing their very serious question, Li Wei knew exactly what they were thinking!
He looked at them deeply, then said lightly, "Relax. This friend of mine doesn’t have any terrifying background, so you can completely put your minds at ease."
"If that’s the case, then we’re reassured!"
With a light laugh, they asked a bit warmly, "When are we doing it?"
After thinking for a moment, Li Wei said directly, "It’s getting a bit late today. Let’s do it tomorrow night, how about that?"
"Okay, Brother Li, as long as you tell us the exact time and place, we’ll definitely be there."
Knowing they were still fairly reliable, Li Wei smiled. "Mm, for now let’s just drink properly. Everything tonight is on me."
"Thanks, Brother Li."
...
"Huh? You’re not leaving with me now?"
Xiaobei looked at Cao Lingbing and the others, his face full of surprise.
Earlier, Xiaobei had told them he was leaving and said he wanted to take them with him, but they had different ideas.
Cao Lingbing glanced at Xiaobei, then gave a faint smile and said calmly, "Xiaobei-ge, of course we want to leave with you. We all want to go see the place where you live, but our health isn’t great right now, so we should recover first and then come find you."
"This..."
Xiaobei frowned...
He was just about to say something when he heard Cao Lingbing continue, "Xiaobei-ge, we’ve all talked it over. We all hope we can leave here in our best state, so don’t try to talk us out of it."
"If that’s how it is, then alright."
Xiaobei knew they’d already made up their minds, so he didn’t say anything more...
"Mm, once we’ve recovered, we’ll go look for you!"
"Then it’s a deal. If you don’t come by then, I’ll be angry!"
