Chapter 155 - Chapter 155 - 155: Five Dragons Leap onto the Golden Hall (2/2)

Tuan Tuan nodded her little head and then let go of Chen Yu’s hand, running over to Chef Jin.

“Uncle, there’s no need to kowtow anymore. Even if you knocked your head until it breaks, my dad still might not take you on as an apprentice, unless you show enough sincerity.”

Having said that, Tuan Tuan bounced back to Chen Yu’s side.

Chen Yu was a bit surprised; he hadn’t expected his daughter to be so wise.

She had not only refrained from directly forgiving the other party but had also vaguely refused the other party’s request to become an apprentice.

Tong Ya also cast an approving glance.

Chen Yu didn’t say anything more. It was already ten o’clock at night, right when the factory shifts to the night crew, and he wanted to go take a look.

After sending Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan home, Chen Yu headed straight for the factory.

The remaining section of the factory that was under construction was already taking shape, and he believed it would be fully operational in another ten days or half a month.

The section of the factory that was already running was operating smoothly.

Chen Yu could hear the roar of machinery as soon as he arrived.

Just as he was about to enter to check things out, he suddenly noticed an SUV parked in the adjacent parking lot.

Hou Jianchang was sitting at the driver’s seat, resting with his eyes closed.

Next to the car, a large number of cigarette butts were scattered.

It seemed Hou Jianchang hadn’t had a good sleep for a long time.

After arranging the daytime and nighttime supervisory tasks with Hou Jianchang, Chen Yu had gone back to sleep.

But Hou Jianchang had stayed alone in the factory area, fearing something might go wrong.

“Old Hou!” Chen Yu gently knocked on the window.

Hou Jianchang immediately woke up, his face full of vigilance.

When he saw it was Chen Yu, he relaxed.

“Old Chen, it’s you!”

As he spoke, Hou Jianchang stepped out of the car, offering a cigarette in passing.

Chen Yu waved his hand: “I don’t smoke, as you know!”

Hou Jianchang slapped his forehead: “Look at me, all muddled, I forgot.”

“Why don’t you go home to sleep?” Chen Yu patted Hou Jianchang’s shoulder: “It must be uncomfortable to be cooped up in the car.”

Hou Jianchang sighed: “The factory isn’t finished yet, and we haven’t put up the protective fences. If someone sneaks in to steal things in the middle of the night, it’s the factory that will suffer the loss.”

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, after all, Hou Jianchang had been duped before and was now a bit overly cautious.

Xie Jiang had specifically left some workers to live in the simple prefabricated houses near the factory.

There were lights still on in that place.

With those workers keeping watch, he doubted any petty thieves would dare cause trouble.

As they were speaking, a faint engine sound suddenly came from a not-too-distant place.

A medium-sized truck leisurely passed through the factory’s fence and headed straight for the construction site.

Chen Yu instantly became alert, moving behind the SUV to observe the situation over there.

Hou Jianchang also perked up considerably: “Lately, there have been many such guys committing crimes in Suzhou City. Many construction sites and unfinished factories have been hit, and one electronics factory even had two trucks’ worth of goods stolen.”

Although Hou Jianchang spoke in a low voice, Chen Yu could still hear the anger in his words.

“Old Hou, have these guys stolen from you before?”

Hou Jianchang sighed helplessly: “They’ve stolen once, but the people under me caught them.”

Chen Yu let out a heavy breath: “Then this time, let’s catch them red-handed!”
