C2075 The Fish Took the Bait
A year ago, Boss Gao and many of the Wealthy Class 2 had a friendly consultation and announced: From today onwards, Tianya Group will operate the twelve production lines.
Out of the twelve production lines, six of them were at the Tianya Group Headquarters, which was where Liang Ming presided.
Four would be in the Faang Family Village branch, currently led by Zhao Xianjing.
In the Germany branch factory led by Zhang Tao, only two production lines had been restored to normal production.
In fact, from the very beginning, the Germany Division only had four production lines.
On the surface, there were only two production lines for the Germany Branch Plant to resume production. In reality, the four production lines had already been fully produced the moment they received the chance to resume production.
The production line Liao Shuifen and Zhou Muhan requested was also in the Germany division. The other production line was for Gao Fei's emergency response. After all, it was possible that he would give the product away to someone else.
In everyone's eyes, in Gao Fei's eyes, Zhang Tao was simply incomparable to Lee Decai, Lao Wang, and Liang Ming. Firstly, it was because she was the last one to reach the higher levels, and secondly, she was the youngest and also a girl.
However, even if Zhang Tao was the lightest among all the trusted aides in Gao Fei's heart, she knew that most of the employees of Heaven's End didn't know about these matters. Otherwise, she wouldn't have spent the Spring Festival at Faang Family Village.
Boss Gao was in a very dangerous situation, so he could only hide in his Faang Family Village like a turtle.
Those bad guys couldn't touch him, but they could also touch his trusted subordinates.
Zhang Tao, who considered herself as a confidante of Gao Fei, was very clear that she had entered the eyes of those people and even knew that Boss Gao would send people to protect her in the dark.
However, she wasn't worried, because she knew that she held the lowest position among all Boss Gao's trusted aides. Even if those people wanted to attack from the bottom of their hearts, they would still seek out Liang Ming, the 'heavyweight'.
Furthermore, Gao Miaomiao, who looked like a bait in every way, had already made her appearance on the 8th day of the new year. Who would pay attention to her, an outsider?
Therefore, while Liang Ming and the others were feeling threatened, Zhang Tao was the most relaxed. On the eighth day of work, she put all of her energy into production.
As Zhang Tao had expected, from the eighth day of the new year until the end of the Dragon Lamp of the fifteenth day of the first month, she did not encounter any mishaps, even when she received a threatening call.
Of course, during this period of time, she also paid a lot of attention to Liang Ming, especially Gao Miaomiao.
Like her, Gao Miaomiao and the others were safe.
It was as if those people didn't intend to hurt them at all.
They may have made a move, but it was resolved by Brother Fei, so I didn't know.
Of course, perhaps those people had given up on the idea of plotting against Brother Fei.
No matter what, this was a good thing.
Can't we just put down our grudges and sit down and have a good talk?
Fighting, killing, cheating, cheating … all of this was meaningless.
Zhang Tao thought to herself as she stood up from her chair and walked to the window to look outside.
In the village not far away, fireworks were popping from time to time.
On the road below the factory area, there were no Shadow s. There were only street lamps on both sides of the street, emitting an orange light that gave people a feeling of warmth similar to spring.
In the hearts of the commoners, only the passing of the fifteenth day of the first month was considered as the end of the year.
Tonight was the fifteenth day of the first month. In order to let the staff enjoy the final day of the holiday, other than a dozen or so people remaining on duty, everyone else was on vacation.
Zhang Tao felt like she was dreaming as she watched the road, occasionally seeing a leaf floating out from the greenery on both sides of the road.
Of course, it was a beautiful dream, a beautiful dream that he wouldn't wake up from for the rest of his life.
Because she never thought that the Goddess of Fate would favor her in this way: Just last summer, she was still an ceremonial lady with a monthly salary of two thousand, but now, she is the boss of one of the two major branches of the Tianya Group, and her monthly salary was as high as several hundred thousand. Every time she went home to visit her parents, her close friends and relatives would act as if they were welcoming the empress.
She was grateful to the Goddess of Fate for her favor and even more grateful to Gao Fei.
If someone were to tell her now that the evildoers hidden in the shadows were actually targeting her, she believed that Zhang Tao would not be afraid. Instead, she felt that this was an opportunity to repay Brother Fei.
"Hehe, an insignificant person like me, how could I enter the eyes of those people?"
Zhang Tao let out a chuckle as she let her imagination run wild. She spread her arms and took a deep breath, walking out of the office.
Dinner was long over, and the soup dumplings were served.
It was the 15th day of the first month. What was he going to eat if he didn't eat Soup Dumplings?
It was nine o'clock in the evening.
Every time at this time, Zhang Tao would habitually take a walk around the factory road before going back to rest.
Her residence was the same one that Chen Guoguo had been living in, behind the office building.
A hundred steps before going to bed, living to ninety-nine — for a girl who loves beauty, it's good to walk at night.
As usual, Zhang Tao, with her hands in the pockets of her down jacket, strolled along the road until she reached the entrance of the field. She chatted with the guards on duty for a while and told them to be careful of safety before she headed deeper into the factory.
After seeing Director Zhang turn a corner, Little Wang and the others happily entered the duty room. It was a cold day, and it was a festive day. Who would come to the factory to cause trouble?
If they could suddenly see Black-robed Man coming out of the forest, they wouldn't think this way.
"Ah — you, who are you!?"
Zhang Tao was taken aback by the sudden appearance of a black shadow in front of her eyes.
She still hadn't realized how much danger she was facing. She thought it was the restless guy who wanted to steal from the factory during the festive season.
The black shadow obviously wouldn't tell Zhang Tao who he was, it just walked over step by step.
"Don't come over, I'm going to call for reinforcements!"
Unconsciously, Zhang Tao turned around and ran. Just as she turned around, she saw a black shadow appear behind her.
He was very close to her, and coincidentally under the street lamp, so Zhang Tao could see his face at a glance.
Following that, a gust of cold air rose from the bottom of Zhang Tao's feet and rushed to her brain like a lightning bolt. Her pupils constricted and she opened her mouth to scream, but no sound came out.
The shadow standing in front of her was a whiteboard, the type of whiteboard that only had two slits (eyes) and two black spots (nostrils) on its entire face.
Zhang Tao used to attend Halloween, the Western Ghost Festival. Everyone wore a variety of masks, including skeletons, devils, wraiths, and so on, but there was no shortage of these masks.
However, when she saw the whiteboard, she could only smile and wasn't afraid at all.
Now, she was so scared that she couldn't even scream. This wasn't Halloween, it was real.
The appearance of these two people was detrimental to her.
Zhang Tao stood there in a daze because she was too frightened, which made the two whiteboards feel that there was no challenge.
Facing her, a hint of pride and disdain flashed in her eyes. She slowly walked in front of her, raised her hand like a ghost, and extended it towards her chin. She even let out a snake-like hissing sound, as if she was about to say something.
Zhang Tao didn't dare to move. She had forgotten to dodge. She just stared at the white board with wide eyes as if she would be stabbed through the head by a throwing knife without even needing to do anything.
Just as her fingers were about to touch Zhang Tao's chin, a cold light flashed.
Then, Zhang Tao saw what she subconsciously wanted to see just now: a throwing knife piercing straight into the left side of Whiteboard's head. Blood exploded like fireworks!
Blood splattered Zhang Tao's face. The fresh scent of blood assaulted her nose like mustard oil, causing her to wake up abruptly. She then let out a mournful cry. "Ahh!
Before Zhang Tao's scream could fade, the white board in front of her fell to the ground.
No matter how amazing he was, no matter how amazing a person was, once a knife was stabbed in the head, they would fall to the ground just like this brother of his.
In return for Boss Gao's favor, Zhang Tao felt that she could do anything for him, including die.
However, having the determination to die didn't mean that she wouldn't be afraid or lose her composure when she saw death approaching. As a result, she tripped over the corpse of her sworn brother.
The moment she fell down, she seemed to see a lot of people running out of the dark forest from the corner of her eyes.
Some of them even opened the lid of the well and jumped out.
When Zhang Tao raised her head, she saw the shadow holding her back, clutching her throat and falling to the ground. Just like in the movie, life seemed to be worthless at this moment. A knife that cost no more than ten dollars could be used to exchange for a life.
"Sister Tao, quickly get up and follow me!"
A familiar voice woke Zhang Tao up. She suddenly recognized the person holding her arm. "Su Ying, didn't you go to live at school? Why are you here?"
This girl who was only slightly shorter than Zhang Tao was Chen Guoguo's head disciple, Su Ying.
Of course, Su Ying didn't have time to explain anything to Zhang Tao. Her mission was to bring her to a safe area as soon as possible.
Zhang Tao, who had been dragged by Su Ying, glanced behind her when she turned the corner: dozens of Shadow s had suddenly appeared on the factory road, which was just empty a moment ago, just like a magic trick.
They were not fighting or catching. Instead, they were attacking one person with three to five people. The side with more people had people falling to the ground.
"Hey!"
When Zhang Tao turned around to look, Su Ying suddenly let out a delicate shout. She quickly turned her head and saw a streak of cold light rapidly piercing toward a white shadow.
Su Ying was covered with assassination weapons, including her tongue.
Because of Chen Guoguo's early instructions, Su Ying had always liked to kill people, especially after a few years of peace and quiet … Therefore, she preferred to stay behind rather than drag Zhang Tao away to safety.
The throwing knives were fast.
According to Su Ying's estimation, it was impossible for her to dodge the white shadow that had suddenly appeared in front of her, and she would be as vulnerable as that white board.
However, what caused her to jump in fright was that the white shadow casually waved her hand and gripped the short knife that she had shot out with the crossbow.
The white shadow lowered its head to take a look and then casually threw the flying dagger. It immediately let out a sharp whistling sound and flew towards Su Ying at an even faster speed.
Su Ying gritted her teeth and turned around without dodging.
Of course, she could dodge the flying daggers with her full strength, but it was impossible for Zhang Tao, who was standing behind her, to dodge them.
Su Ying had no other choice but to use her back to protect Zhang Tao.
"Su Ying, run!"
Zhang Tao screamed when she saw the throwing knives shooting towards her like lightning bolts.
Su Ying smiled bitterly.2
Of course she couldn't hide.
Ding! Dang!
Su Ying gritted her teeth as she prepared to endure the sharp pain of the flying knife stabbing into her body. The crisp sound of metal striking metal rang out from the back of her head.
She subconsciously turned around and let out a sigh of relief, "Phew, Chu Feng, you've finally arrived in time."
