"How's it going? Is there any progress?" I couldn't help but ask after dialing Zhao Min's phone number.

Zhao Min answered calmly: "Well, Wei Rong said they are investigating, but the specific reason for the leak has not been found out yet."

I nodded on the other end of the phone, but my heart was in turmoil.

He briefly told her about He Keliang's visit today and the clues he provided.

After hearing this, Zhao Min didn't seem to believe what He Keliang said: "He might just be bluffing."

I had a different view, and said in deep thought: "I don't think what he said is false... How about you come back first?"

Zhao Min chuckled on the other end of the phone and seemed very confident: "It's okay. The Wei family will have results soon. I will go back after the matter is settled."

Although I wanted her to come back right away, when I heard what she said, I didn't insist anymore. I just told her: "Then be careful and contact me immediately if anything happens."

After hanging up the phone, I fell into deep thought.

Although He Keliang usually seems unreliable, his words this time made me feel uneasy.

Could it be that He Hong really knew something?

My mind quickly filters for people in the know.

Ah Dao is dead. Although Ah Gui knows that I have been to the old street, he does not know about my contact with Wei Rong.

As for Wang Meng, he also knows some inside information, but now...

I walked out to the balcony, feeling irritable.

He took out the last cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath.

The smoke slowly dispersed in the night sky, just like my mood at the moment, full of confusion and anxiety.

I once chose to cooperate with the Wei family, knowing that one day I would have to face such a situation, but I didn't expect it would become so complicated and difficult.

After the cigarette burned out, I threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray.

Standing on the balcony, I looked at the twinkling stars in the night sky, and felt an inexplicable sadness in my heart.

Once this dispute is over, I must make more thorough plans for my future.

Under the dark night sky, I felt a profound sense of loneliness, like cold sea water, slowly soaking into my soul.

My mind wandered far away, and I couldn't help but think of Li Yan.

The original decision to cut off contact with her was precisely because he was worried that the Wei family's affairs would eventually be exposed.

Li Yan's personality convinced me that she would never stand idly by if things were revealed.

I don’t want him or her to be involved in this turmoil anymore…

There was a moment when I dreamed of making enough money in the park, staying away from the hustle and bustle with Li Yan, and living a peaceful and happy life.

But all this seems too far away, just like the stars in front of us, within reach but out of reach.

After going through so many ups and downs, I gradually understood a truth: everything has a cause and effect. What you sow will be what you sow.

Will the shady things I do really allow me to survive the rest of my life?

This question, like an unsolvable mystery, ties my heart.

I took a deep breath, trying to get rid of the helplessness in my heart.

The stars gradually dimmed and the night became darker.

I stood quietly on the balcony, letting the night breeze blow across my face. The loneliness and confusion in my heart still lingered, but I knew that all of this was the reality that I had to face.

……

Three days later, He Keliang suddenly invited me to go out with him.

When setting off, he took a few people with him.

He and I were in the same car. As we were slowly driving out of the park, I couldn't help but ask him, "Where are we going?"

He Keliang looked out the window and replied: "Old Street."

I couldn't help but feel uneasy: "What are we going to do in the old street?"

He turned his head and smiled mysteriously at me: "What else can I do?"

I can't help but wonder if he has found the mole.

"Have you found the mole?" I asked eagerly.

He shook his head: "Not yet..."

I was relieved to hear this answer.

"Then let's go there this time..."

I was about to continue talking, but He Keliang interrupted me: "Don't worry, I won't make your trip in vain. You will understand when you get there."

I said half-jokingly: "Brother Liang, you are always so mysterious. Is there anything you can't tell me directly?"

He Keliang sighed: "Actually, I don't know very well. My brother only told me to take people to the old street, and someone will contact us there. I am also confused about the specific situation."

He raised his eyebrows and handed me a cigarette: "Anyway, I don't think you have anything important to do these days, just go out for a walk with me."

I took the cigarette and took a deep breath, thinking to myself that this trip would definitely not be easy.

On the way, we stopped to eat.

Taking advantage of the gap, I found an excuse to leave the table and called Zhao Min, but no one answered the phone.

This worries me a bit.

In desperation, I sent her a message telling her that He Keliang and I were about to arrive at Lao Cai.

After sending the message, I still felt uneasy.

So I called Wei Jian again and asked about Zhao Min.

He told me that Zhao Min was at his sister's place, so I asked him to tell Zhao Min that I had tried to contact her.

Just when I was about to tell Wei Jian my current situation, I heard vague footsteps and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Turning around, I saw He Keliang already standing not far from me.

"Let's go." He waved to me.

I walked over with a smile and sat back in the car. He asked me who I was talking to on the phone. I smiled and said, "That guy Jia Wenmin always asks me about everything now. He just called me and told me that he wanted to do something." What a new business."

He Keliang smiled: "To be honest, I really didn't expect you to let him manage the marketing department."

I spread my hands and said, "Although he is a wallflower, he is really good at delivering results. As you know, I don't have anyone available for me now."

"That's true." He sighed and said, "It's a pity that boy Wang Meng."

I was a little surprised, I didn't expect that he was still hanging on to Wang Meng.

It was noon the next day when we arrived at Lao Cai.

We stayed in a hotel and fixed up.

It was also at this time that Zhao Yuan called me back.

"Are you in the old street?" she asked.

"Okay, here we are, where are you now?"

"Henry."

"What's going on with the Wei family now?" I asked.

"Wei Rong has already targeted several people and is still trying to find out..."

"Why don't you go back to the park first." I said, "I always feel that if He Hong asks He Keliang to come over this time, there may not be anything good he can do."

"What are you afraid of? Do they still dare to come to the Wei family's territory to cause trouble?" Zhao Min said, "I think you need to be more careful over there..."

"Don't worry, He Hong had no intention of asking me to come this time. It was He Keliang who asked me to come with him on his own initiative. He probably didn't come here for me."

I analyzed and said: "If you are coming for me, wouldn't it be better to do it in the park?"

"That's right. Then I'll urge Wei Rong. After the matter is settled, I'll go to Mae Sot for a while." Zhao Min said.

"That's what I think too. Once you get things done, go to Mae Sot to find Lin Ya..."

"Okay, then I won't tell you anymore."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, I took out a cigarette and couldn't help but wonder, what on earth is He Hong doing?
