C269 The Mastermind

Lin Tao's leisurely appearance was just a carefree expression before his death. Zhang Chu wasn't worried that he would play any tricks on him.

"Mr. Zhang, I have always heard about you from Brother Hong. Today, I have seen you in person. You are even younger than I had imagined. Hehe, you're really young and promising. " Lin Tao lit his own cigarette and took a deep breath. His face was full of enjoyment.

As Yuan Zhihong's trusted aide, it wasn't strange for Lin Tao to have heard of Zhang Chu.

What was strange was that he actually did not know about Lin Tao's existence. If Gong Yuqing did not tell Zhang Chu, in the future when Lin Tao suddenly appeared, perhaps it would be a surprise attack that caught Zhang Chu off guard.

Zhang Chu didn't say anything. He just sized up Lin Tao and saw where he was going to play.

"I want to hear your evaluation of Gong Yuqing." Lin Tao took another puff of smoke. His tone was surprisingly calm.

"Imperious and domineering, decisive in killing, and incomparably wise." Zhang Chu, on the other hand, was also straightforward. He directly spoke out his impression of Gong Yuqing.

Lin Tao nodded his head. "The evaluation is quite appropriate."

"What do you want to say?" Zhang Chu asked back.

Lin Tao shrugged. "I just want to give you a reminder. If you work with Gong Yuqing, don't die without knowing how."

"Hehe." Zhang Chu smiled and did not say anything. Zhang Chu would not fall for this kind of low level sowing discord.

"You don't believe me?" Lin Tao extinguished the cigarette butt and spat out the cigarette dregs in his mouth. His gestures were full of confidence. "This living example of mine is right in front of you. You should believe me."

Seeing that Zhang Chu still did not respond, Lin Tao said unhurriedly, "Gong Yuqing sent you here to get the things. We all think that you are here to take private medicine. You have to know that... The private medicine in my hand is specifically for Yuan Zhihong. It is Yuan Zhihong's most important asset. However, I am secretly cooperating with Gong Yuqing. This is enough to prove how much I trust Gong Yuqing. "And in order to gain my trust, Gong Yuqing has put in a lot of effort."

"So?" Zhang Chu raised his eyebrows.

"Gong Yuqing did not even blink when she abandoned my chess piece."

Zhang Chu did not deny this. In Gong Yuqing's eyes, there was no sense of benevolence and compassion. There were only benefits.

To be frank.

Gong Yuqing only had two types of people in her eyes. One was valuable and the other was worthless.

The meaning behind Lin Tao's words was very clear. Now that Zhang Chu was valuable, Gong Yuqing attached great importance to him. When Zhang Chu lost his value, Gong Yuqing would sell him out without hesitation.

"Gong Yuqing may be in danger, but there is no direct conflict of interest between us. The enemy of the enemy is a friend. As long as we can get rid of Yuan Zhihong, it is not a big deal to work with Gong Yuqing." Zhang Chu did not hide anything and directly laid out his cards.

The corner of Lin Tao's mouth rose, forming a mocking smile. He looked at Zhang Chu as if he was looking at a fool.

"He really was sold by someone, and he's still helping out with the money." Lin Tao helplessly sighed.

"I'm not here to listen to your nonsense." Zhang Chu stood up.

Facing Zhang Chu who was approaching him step by step, Lin Tao was still able to hold his breath and said with a smile. What if I tell you that all of this was caused by Gong Yuqing?"

"Huh." Zhang Chu sneered. He did not believe what Lin Tao said at all.

Zhang Chu, Shen Lang, Yuan Zhihong and the others had a long-standing grudge. Gong Yuqing had only appeared for a short period of time.

Furthermore, Gong Yuqing and Zhang Chu did not have a direct conflict of interest. It was not worth to scheme against a small figure like Zhang Chu.

As if he had already predicted that Zhang Chu would not believe him, Lin Tao took out his phone, flipped it twice, and threw the phone on the table. The screen was facing upwards, and it just so happened to display a photo.

There were two people in the photo, Lin Tao and Gong Yuqing. From the looks of it, it should be a selfie. The background was a restaurant called Judd Steamed Bun House.

Zhang Chu knew of this Jude Steamed Bun Shop. In the past, it was an online restaurant in Dongzhou City. Many foreigners would go to Jude Steamed Bun Shop to pay cards when they came to Dongzhou City.

Zhang Chu stopped moving and stared at the photo. His brows were knitted tighter and tighter.1

Because according to Zhang Chu, the life cycle of this famous online shop was very short, this Jude Steamed Bun Shop only managed to run it for two years before closing. The closing time was three years ago. Zhang Chu remembered it very clearly, because that year, Zhang Chu had just married into the Qin family.

This photo proved that Gong Yuqing had come to Dongzhou City three years ago.

And judging from the expressions of the two in the photo, Lin Tao and Gong Yuqing were very close at that time.

Zhang Chu looked at Lin Tao and said in a serious tone, "Gong Yuqing stayed in Dongzhou City for three years?"

"Of course not." Lin Tao denied it without hesitation and took out a stack of bills from the drawer. "This is the invoice for Gong Yuqing's flight to Dongzhou City in recent years. As a private medicine seller, I am naturally in charge of Yuan Zhihong's finances. These tickets are all reimbursed by me. It is not strange to keep the invoice."

Speaking up to here, Lin Tao threw out another heavyweight bomb and took out a stack of bank bills. "Hehe, the money you spent on your meal last night was also taken from me."

"What!"

Zhang Chu picked up the bank notes and carefully observed them. He found that these notes were spread across more than a dozen banks. The most was 20 million yuan, and the least was 20 million yuan. Only a few million.

One should know that there was no bank in the world that could pay 1 500 million yuan in one go. This involved some financial knowledge. Zhang Chu was not an expert in this field, but at least he knew some common sense.

It turned out that Gong Yuqing's heaven defying generosity was all the result of Lin Tao's operation behind the scenes.

Zhang Chu was shocked.

What shocked him was not that Gong Yuqing could take out so much money, but that Gong Yuqing would not hesitate to get rid of his money bag.

Seemingly seeing the doubt in Zhang Chu's eyes, Lin Tao helplessly smiled. "No matter how much money I have, compared to the entire Dongzhou City, it is still a drop in the ocean. As long as Gong Yuqing has absolute control over the Dongzhou City, the money will be like a strong wind blowing into her pocket."

Zhang Chu took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "This is between you two. It has nothing to do with me."

Lin Tao was prepared for this. "I only want to prove to you that Gong Yuqing came to Dongzhou City as frequently as returning to her own home. Next up is this. "

Lin Tao flipped through his phone and found the chat history between him and Gong Yuqing.

"Hehe, take a look yourself."

Zhang Chu picked up his phone and flipped through the chat logs. The more he read, the more shocked he became. The more he looked, the darker his face became.

It was all Gong Yuqing's orders to Lin Tao to let Lin Tao invest in Shen Lang. The bank transfer on the surface, coupled with the secret stuffing of money, was as high as hundreds of millions!

If not for this money, Shen Lang would have been knocked down a long time ago!

No wonder this guy was so stubborn. It turned out that Gong Yuqing was secretly supporting him! Most importantly, Shen Lang did not know about this matter at all. He even thought that Yuan Zhihong was helping him.

When he flipped to the top, a message made blue veins pop out on Zhang Chu's forehead.

"Only Zhang Chu can break the balance of Dongzhou City. I have faith in him."

So...

Zhang Chu, Qin family, and Liu Village had gone through all kinds of difficulties. It was all because of Gong Yuqing!
