Yuan Ye had a backup plan. If Zhang Shicheng was not killed in Jiangwan Hotel and was sent to the hospital injured, he would attack Zhang Shicheng in the hospital. He had already thought of the plan, and he would be waiting for Zhang Shicheng to arrive at the East Asia Hospital near Jiangwan Hotel tomorrow morning.

Of course, the premise is that Zhang Shicheng was injured. If Zhang Shicheng was killed on the spot or was not injured, his plan would be useless.

Even if Zhang Shicheng was not injured, he must have been scared to death after this scare and would definitely cancel the negotiations with the British Consul General that day.

Then the matter of taking back Shancheng's jurisdiction over the concession would be delayed, and there would still be a chance to assassinate Zhang Shicheng, but it would probably be more difficult.

Now we can only wait and see what happens at Jiangwan Hotel tomorrow.

Yuan Ye then left Jiangwan Hotel and drove to Hengyuan Grocery Store. On the way, he removed his makeup and restored his original appearance.

He and Gu Yan went to see the new building they had rented where they were going to open Hengyuan Trading Company.

This is a two-story building along the street. It has a good location, not far from the city government and where I live. There is an alley outside the back door, which is convenient for escape in case of emergencies.

There is an attic on the roof. If the back door is blocked, you can also climb out from here and escape along the row of roof ridges.

Yuan Ye felt that Gu Yan had put a lot of thought into the choice and the place he chose was quite good.

The two looked upstairs and downstairs and saw several workers doing renovation work, which was almost finished.

Gu Yan smiled and asked:

"I found this place with great difficulty according to your request. How is it? Not bad, right?"

Yuan Ye nodded and said:

"Not bad, I'm very satisfied, I can trust you to do the job!

I just checked and the space on the second floor is quite large. You can arrange for someone to partition off a secret room on the second floor for emergency use."

"no problem."

Gu Yan thought to himself, Yuan Ye was really thoughtful, why didn’t he think of it?

The two returned to the car, and Yuan Ye handed the key to Room 208 of Jiangwan Hotel to Gu Yan and said:

"Give this key to the fisherman right away. It's the key to Room 208 at Jiangwan Hotel. Tell him the goods have been delivered. He knows what that means.

And give him back the car.”

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Gu Yan replied.

He thought to himself that there must be some action, but since Yuan Ye didn't say anything, he didn't dare to ask.

Yuan Ye nodded, got out of the car, and watched Gu Yan drive away.

He looked at his watch. It was already past three in the afternoon. It was too late to go to Iwai Mansion, so he decided to go back to the city government.

He remembered that he had promised to take He Li to the movies in the evening, so he quickly walked towards the city government.

.........

Outside Zhang Yiming's rental house, three black cars stopped not far away. Yan Ping got out of the car and ordered his men to quickly surround Zhang Yiming's rental house.

When they broke in and searched the entire house, they did not find Zhang Yiming, which made Yan Ping regretful.

Am I late?

Has Zhang Yiming already run away?

Before coming, Yan Ping had someone call Hujiang University and learned that Zhang Yiming was not on campus and had gone home.

He also called Wang Yufeng to find out more about the situation, but people at the school said that Wang Yufeng did not attend classes in the afternoon, had asked for leave, and was not in the dormitory. No one knew where she had gone.

That's why he took people straight to Zhang Yiming's home. Now that Zhang Yiming is not at home, there are only two possibilities.

One possibility is that they arrived too late and Zhang Yiming had already escaped.

Another possibility is that they came too early and Zhang Yiming has not returned home yet, but he may return home soon.

Yan Ping certainly hoped it was the second one, if it was the first one it would be troublesome.

He left a few people to guard Zhang Yiming's house and drove to Hujiang University. He wanted to find Wang Yufeng immediately to see if Wang Yufeng knew about the situation.

He was extremely anxious and kept wondering along the way, where had Wang Yufeng gone?

Are you with Zhang Yiming?

I wonder if she has returned to school now?

When they arrived outside Hujiang University, Yan Ping got off the car and immediately found a telephone booth to call the school, saying that there was an emergency at home and he needed to find Wang Yufeng.

The person who answered the phone saw that he was in a hurry, agreed to help him find Wang Yufeng, and went to look for her after hanging up the phone.

Yan Ping could only wait anxiously, his heart in turmoil, hoping that Wang Yufeng would come back.

A few minutes later, a breathless voice came over the phone:

"I'm Wang Yufeng, who are you?"

When Yan Ping heard Wang Yufeng's voice, he immediately said:

"Something happened at home. Come outside the school immediately. I'm in the black car opposite the school gate."

"Okay, I'll be right away."

After Wang Yufeng hung up the phone, she hurried towards the school gate.

In fact, she had just returned to school after leaving Zhang Yiming's house. Before that, she called Yan Ping's office from outside. The person who answered the phone told her that Director Yan was not there and had gone out.

She asked the person who answered the phone to tell Director Yan to call Hujiang University immediately after he returned.

Now Director Yan’s call finally came!
