In the dim light, Lang Yifeng pricked up his ears to listen to the sounds around him before bending down again to pry up several bricks from the ground.
Just then, a voice came from the front door, "Brother Feng, are you asleep?"
Lang Yifeng quickly tiptoed back into the house without opening the door, and said coldly, "What now? I'm going to sleep."
Tang Jie said, "Brother Feng, I'd like to talk to you about something."
However, Lang Yifeng was not interested and replied icily, "It's late! Let's talk tomorrow! I'm very tired and don't want to be disturbed anymore!"
In the quiet of the night, footsteps were clearly audible. A set of footsteps faded away, presumably Tang Jie walking away disinterestedly.
Soon after, Lang Yifeng's footsteps could be heard heading towards the back of the house, this time carrying several bundles of cash. He returned to a water tank, retrieved a small iron box about a foot square from the ground, opened it, and put the cash inside.
