150: Chapter 15: The "Diamond" Beauty Undercover?

After massaging for a while, Cai Guoqiang felt much better.

Chen Shaoping began to grumble, "If I had known, I wouldn't have told you."

"What happened to being in good health? You nearly scared me to death."

"Alright, enough," Cai Guoqiang barked, then continued sheepishly, "Haven't I recovered now?"

"Kid, you have to take responsibility for what you just said. Don't let everything that comes out of your mouth be nonsense."

Chen Shaoping patted his shoulder and said with dissatisfaction, "Old Cai, why don't you believe me? Everything I said is one hundred percent true."

"I originally wanted to tell Old He, He Qixiang, directly, but I'm not close to him. To put it bluntly, I don't trust him."

"Wait... You said you don't trust him? Do you mean that even the Palace Museum might have..." Cai Guoqiang's eyes widened, and his heart was deeply shaken.

His emotions, which had just calmed down, were now surging like ocean waves again.

If even a Museum like the Palace Museum had fallen victim, one could only imagine the state of other local Museums.

The entire Dragon Kingdom...

He dared not imagine it; this would be a catastrophe for the world of cultural relics.

"I didn't say that; you said it yourself."

"I've finished what I had to say. It's up to you how to handle it. Don't reveal my existence; say someone told you anonymously or that you discovered it yourself."

Having finished speaking, Chen Shaoping planned to leave, as he still had things to do.

"You're leaving just like that after dropping such a bomb?" Cai Guoqiang looked at Chen Shaoping.

"Old Cai, I only came to you because I didn't know what to do. Now that you know, it's your problem."

Chen Shaoping acted like a rogue and hurriedly left the house without waiting for Cai Guoqiang's consent.

It truly fit the saying.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

After Chen Shaoping left, Cai Guoqiang fell into deep thought.

If someone said He Qixiang had a problem, he wouldn't believe it for a second.

But what if...

He scratched his hair, wishing he could appear in Kyoto right this instant.

When Chen Shaoping returned home, Zhang Ying had already dressed up according to his instructions.

She wore a white silk dress adorned with sparkling diamonds that looked even more dazzling under the lights.

On her wrists...

On her left hand, she wore a Patek Philippe Celestial luxury watch.

On her right hand was an emerald bracelet, its color resembling the deep sea.

Large diamond earrings hung from her ears, paired with a ruby necklace around her neck.

The whole ensemble made her look incredibly noble, as if she were enveloped in diamonds.

Chen Shaoping walked up to her, lightly tilted her chin with his right hand, his eyes full of admiration.

"Beautiful rich lady, please take care of me."

Zhang Ying let out a bell-like laugh. "Little puppy, if you perform well tonight, Big Sister will cover all your future expenses."

After saying it, she felt a bit embarrassed, her face flushing red.

"Then I'll have to work hard at 'plowing the fields' tonight."

Zhang Ying punched Chen Shaoping's chest with her fist and said coquettishly, "Stop being poor. Let's go. Let's finish the business early so we can come back early to 'work hard'."

"You got it."

Chen Shaoping protected Zhang Ying as they walked, fearing she might accidentally bump into something.

Soon, the two arrived at the Jingjiang Hotel.

Zhang Ying was a bit surprised. What were they doing at a hotel? Was the mission location here?

Upon entering the hotel lobby, for some reason, there were many people today—noble ladies and beauties everywhere.

Yang Mengmeng and Tian Jun were already waiting there.

Seeing Zhang Ying and Chen Shaoping walk in, the two went to meet them.

Yang Mengmeng's eyes kept scanning Zhang Ying, and she circled around her once.

She clicked her tongue in wonder. "Sister Ying, your outfit today..."

"What made you think of dressing like this?"

Zhang Ying smiled and said, "It's very gaudy, isn't it? Your brother told me to dress like this. You'll have to ask him why."

Tian Jun also asked, "Da Ping, is there a reason you asked us to come here?"

Chen Shaoping led the three to a corner of the lobby where fewer people passed by and it was quieter.

"As far as I know, today in the 'Dream of Fate' Hall on the 2nd floor, a Spiritual Cultivation Organization called 'Fire Fox' will be recruiting members."

"They specifically target women with a certain amount of wealth and social status. Sister Ying's outfit is the best 'business card' to sneak in."

"Spiritual Cultivation Organization? What does that do?" Yang Mengmeng frowned, but a hint of curiosity still flashed in her eyes.

Chen Shaoping glanced at her and asked back, "What do you think it does?"

Yang Mengmeng tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Spiritual Cultivation Organization... it wouldn't be teaching you how to become an immortal, would it?"

"Probably not; becoming an immortal is too far-fetched."

"I guess it's probably health preservation. There are more and more health experts nowadays, but they're actually all scammers."

Chen Shaoping couldn't help but praise her, "Impressive. This organization is a criminal gang that scams people out of money and sex."

Hearing this, Tian Jun finally got excited and said loudly, "I'll call my brothers over and wipe them all out in one go."

Chen Shaoping shook his head. "We don't have evidence yet. Doing that will only alert the enemy."

"Those women who were scammed might have been brainwashed or hypnotized; they won't necessarily stand up to testify against them."

"Moreover, we don't even know their mode of operation, let alone how many people are involved."

"Sister Ying, Mengmeng, you two go in soon and see what the situation is like inside."

"There's a celebrity named Shu Xin inside who will become their member today. Find a way to talk to her."

"After that, it'll be a matter for Tian Jun and the police."

He didn't want Zhang Ying and Yang Mengmeng to continue being involved; it was too dangerous.

The reason he let them go in today was that this was a public place; if they weren't spooked, those criminals definitely wouldn't act recklessly.

Besides, he and Tian Jun would be watching from outside, providing an extra layer of security.

"Sister Ying, Mengmeng, any problems?"

"No problem," the two replied in unison.

Chen Shaoping took out miniature cameras and installed several on both of them.

Yang Mengmeng specifically took one in her hand to examine it closely. "Brother, this equipment of yours is really good."

"It's very expensive, so don't lose it for me," Chen Shaoping warned her with a stern face.

Zhang Ying burst out laughing.

Yang Mengmeng muttered, "So stingy."

Chen Shaoping and Tian Jun escorted the two to the 2nd floor; the hallway was almost entirely filled with women, with no men in sight.

He and Tian Jun didn't continue escorting them to the entrance of the Dream of Fate Hall, as it would be too conspicuous.

Instead, they returned to the first-floor hotel lobby and found a quiet spot to sit down.

The two stared intently at Chen Shaoping's phone, which showed the perspectives of Zhang Ying and Yang Mengmeng.

The two of them walked down the hallway without raising any suspicion and naturally arrived at the entrance of the Dream of Fate Hall.

The two people responsible for sign-ins were also women, with figures and faces so beautiful they could pass for flight attendants.

"Ladies, please show your invitations."

Zhang Ying smiled slightly, tucked the hair hanging over her chest behind her, and waved her hand.

"Sorry, we don't have invitations."

"However, we've learned a lot about 'Fire Fox' from friends and have always looked forward to it. Knowing there was a gathering here today, we hurried over."

"Could you make an exception and let us in?"

The two sign-in women were professionally trained and could tell at a glance that Zhang Ying's entire outfit was worth a fortune.

Furthermore, they even recognized Zhang Ying.
