Ye Xiandong quickly devised a counter-strategy.
He would make every effort to snatch the plot of land that Ye Qilan intended to bid for. If that didn't work, he could still inflate the property price at the auction.
And, of course, if he could collaborate with someone close to Ye Qilan to get the highest price Ye Qilan is willing to pay, the odds of winning would be even better.
This person close to Ye Qilan had to be Su Hongxing.
When Su Hongxing received the anonymous call, she didn't give it much thought - until she heard Ye Xiandong's voice on the other end - a baffling occurrence.
Ye Xiandong had asked her to meet him at a restaurant near Lugang Industry.
She didn't know what game Ye Xiandong was playing, but she decided to go anyway.
She had always wondered whether Ye Xiandong had been the puppet master who sent her to Ye Qilan three years ago.
Apart from Ye Xiandong, she couldn't think of a better candidate.
