96: Jiang Fei robs Xu Yichen

At 11 AM, Jiang Fei arrived at unit 402 of Building 1 in Haitang Jiayuan.

As soon as she knocked, Xu Yichen opened the door.

He was dressed in casual clothes, his hair styled with gel, clearly having put effort into his appearance.

Seeing Jiang Fei outside the door, a flicker of admiration passed through Xu Yichen’s eyes.

Jiang Fei had always worn a loose-fitting cotton jacket, but today she had changed into a caramel-colored wool coat, which made her small face appear even more porcelain-white and flawless.

Her eyes were cool and detached, like the ice and snow on a mountain peak, making one feel an urge to conquer them.

Xu Yichen suppressed the unsavory thoughts in his heart and, feigning politeness, bent down and extended his hand: “Please come in, junior schoolmate.”

Jiang Fei walked into unit 402.

The apartment in Haitang Jiayuan was more exquisitely decorated than those in Mingshang Apartment Complex, measuring over a hundred square meters with two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen, and one bathroom.

On the dining table in the living room, two servings of pan-fried steak were already laid out, along with a plate of fruit.

Three bright red apples and a small bunch of purple grapes.

“I haven’t seen fresh fruit in a long time,” Jiang Fei said, lying through her teeth.

“They were all gifts from others; I told them not to, but they insisted,” Xu Yichen said, feigning helplessness, and brought out a bottle of red wine: “After dinner, we can chat and drink. Drinking on an empty stomach isn’t good for your stomach.”

If she drank too much, it would be more convenient for him to do whatever he wanted.

Xu Yichen’s lewd gaze swept over Jiang Fei’s body, and he was about to sit down.

Thump thump thump—

A knock came from the door.

“Senior schoolmate, do you have other guests?”

“No, I only invited you today.” Xu Yichen walked over to open the door, puzzled. Before he could see who it was, he was knocked unconscious by a hammer and fell to the ground.

The two people outside the door dragged the unconscious Xu Yichen inside, closed the door, and then pulled off their black bandit masks.

It was Dao Ba and A Meng.

A Meng: “Miss Jiang, the boss is keeping watch downstairs. He told us to be quick, as there are more Patrol Teams here.”

“I’ll take the master bedroom, you take the kitchen, Dao Ba takes the guest bedroom.”

Jiang Fei took the large black bag A Meng handed her and went to ransack the master bedroom.

Leather shoes, suits, coats, and four-piece bedding sets all went into the bag.

Books, candlesticks, and kerosene lamps were stored by Jiang Fei in the Supermarket warehouse.

Finding the bedside table locked, she took out an axe and violently smashed it open.

The top drawer contained 3 gemstone bracelets, 10 one-carat loose diamonds, and 1 jade bangle.

The bottom drawer contained only a document bag.

Inside were a dirty ID card and a small notebook.

The ID card had many scratches and was stained with unknown dirt, making the photo and name blurry.

The birth year and month on the ID card number did not match Xu Yichen’s.

Jiang Fei opened the notebook and glanced at it, her pupils suddenly constricting.

Xu Yichen had used someone else’s identity to enter the Safety Shelter and become the Exchange manager!

The internet had long been down, so identity verification could only be done by looking at ID cards now.

His conscience was uneasy, so he wrote everything that happened in his diary.

Thinking of a way to deal with Xu Yichen, Jiang Fei put the document bag and jewelry into her bag, then searched thoroughly.

Finding no more valuable items, she returned to the living room.

Dao Ba and A Meng each had two bulging sacks.

“You two take everything downstairs and wait for me at the back door. I’ll be down in a moment.”

After handing over the bags, Jiang Fei also gave them the fruit and red wine, telling them to leave.

Then, she rolled up her sleeves and went to beat Xu Yichen.

As usual, she focused on his face and mouth.

After she had beaten him enough, Jiang Fei ate the two steaks, then comfortably leaned back on the sofa, reading a book she had found in the bedroom.

Noticing signs of Xu Yichen waking up, Jiang Fei quickly put the book into the Supermarket warehouse, messed up her hair, and lay on the ground, feigning unconsciousness.

“Hiss…”

Xu Yichen sat up in pain, feeling the swelling in his face and a metallic taste of blood in his mouth. He frantically searched for a mirror but saw Jiang Fei “unconscious” a few steps away.

“Junior schoolmate, junior schoolmate?” Xu Yichen nudged Jiang Fei.

His swollen, sausage-like lips made it difficult for him to articulate words.

Jiang Fei “groggily” opened her eyes and gasped: “Senior schoolmate, what happened to your face…”

Xu Yichen stumbled to the bathroom and instantly froze.

His forehead was broken, his face was swollen, and not only that, but two of his front teeth were missing. Because his sausage-like lips couldn’t close, the bloody cavities were exposed.

“It must be that robber from last time!”

“That person specifically hits my face!” Xu Yichen angrily slurped his saliva.

“Junior schoolmate, did you see what the other person looked like?!”

Jiang Fei pretended to think for a few seconds, then shook her head: “They knocked me out as soon as they came in, and they were wearing black masks, so I couldn’t see their faces.”

“Why is all the food on the table gone?”

As if remembering something, Xu Yichen stumbled into the master bedroom.

When he saw the smashed bedside table, and everything inside gone, Xu Yichen’s breath hitched, and he nearly fell.

It’s over… the notebook was taken… “Senior schoolmate, let’s quickly go find the Patrol Team. Maybe we can catch the robbers and get your lost items back.”

“No!” Xu Yichen frantically interrupted Jiang Fei, making an excuse: “Those people might come back, junior schoolmate, you should leave first. I’ll handle it myself.”

If the Patrol Team caught the robbers, he would be finished too!

He absolutely couldn’t call the Patrol Team!

Jiang Fei pretended to care for a few moments, enjoying Xu Yichen’s unease, then left.

She believed that Xu Yichen wouldn’t get a good night’s sleep after this.

A minivan was parked at the back door of Haitang Jiayuan.

Seeing Jiang Fei approaching through the car window, Crippled Wang in the back seat opened the door.

Four sacks and one black bag were at his feet.

“Boss, what should we do with these things?”

Jiang Fei was very generous: “They’re yours. There’s a document bag in the black bag. Use it to extort gold and supplies from Xu Yichen.”

“The gold is mine, and the supplies are yours.”

“After Xu Yichen has given everything, find a clever person to deliver the document bag to the Rescue Team and report him for impersonating someone else.”

Dao Ba, A Meng, and Crippled Wang all gave thumbs up upon hearing this.

That’s ruthless enough!

“Oh, and Boss, I have results for the person you asked me to investigate. Mo Yanan is the young master of the Mo family in the capital and a distinguished guest of the Safety Shelter director. He stayed here because of the extreme cold.”

“If Mo Yanan has offended you, you’ll just have to accept the loss. We can’t afford to provoke him. With just a word from him, the Safety Shelter could disappear.”

Jiang Fei’s eyes darkened slightly.

She couldn’t touch him, but she had to.

Mo Yanan was a ticking time bomb; if she didn’t defuse it, she wouldn’t feel at ease.

To avoid Mo Yanan, she hadn’t gone to the store these past few days. Su Liuyuan told her that he would wait for her for four or five hours every day before leaving, and he was always asking about her.

“Do you have any information on his whereabouts?”

Crippled Wang: “Yes, I only know that he goes to Youlan Western Restaurant for dinner every night at 7 PM. His regular private room is 588 on the 5th floor.”

“Hey, Boss, where are you going? Don’t you need me to drive you back?”

Jiang Fei waved her hand: “You two go.”

6:40 PM

On the rooftop of a tall building diagonally opposite Youlan Western Restaurant.

Jiang Fei took a sniper rifle from the Supermarket warehouse, lay on the ground, and aimed it at Youlan Western Restaurant.

She had spent one diamond, pretending to be a wealthy nouveau riche, to find out the layout of the Western restaurant.

588 was the best private room, with a full-length French window.

The newly installed glass was thin and not bulletproof.

There were bodyguards inside the Western restaurant, so she couldn’t get in. She could only assassinate him from a distance.

With the Supermarket as a cheat, she wasn’t afraid of being caught.

At worst, she could hide in the Supermarket for a few days.

Exactly at seven o’clock, noticing someone entering the private room, Jiang Fei immediately focused on the scope, her finger ready to pull the trigger.

Mo Yanan walked in with Uncle Liu and sat down in a chair.

There were fake green plants on both sides of the French window, slightly obscuring Mo Yanan’s upper body, making a headshot impossible.

Jiang Fei lightened her breathing, patiently waiting for the right moment.

Before long, a waiter came in to deliver dishes.

Just as Mo Yanan leaned forward to reach for a drink on the table, Jiang Fei quickly pulled the trigger.
