Chapter 697 Obtaining the Final Evidence
Xiao Yang looked at Wang Yang timidly: "Brother, can you let me go tonight? I'm telling the truth, I swear to you!"

“How do I know if you’re telling the truth? You have to tell me everything, who’s behind you, and what they’re asking you to do,” Wang Yang said.

Worried that Xiao Yang might become suspicious, he added, "Don't worry, I have no interest in prying into your privacy, nor am I interested in you. It's just that my 100 million yuan needs some kind of guarantee. Besides, if you need it, I can help you pay off the casino debt."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang suddenly looked up: "Really? You're really willing to help me pay back the money I owed at the casino?"

“Of course. I think it’s quite difficult for you to pay back tens of millions within three days. How about I pay it back for you directly, and you just need to pay me back within half a month?” Wang Yang said generously.

Xiao Yang nodded repeatedly: "Okay, sure. Then please help me pay it back. I'll definitely find a way to pay you back within half a month!"

"However, there's a condition, as I just mentioned. You have to tell me clearly who's behind you. What if you're making it all up? I'll have to find out." Wang Yang stated his condition.

Xiao Yang hesitated; he really didn't dare to reveal Wang Da Dong's name. But if he didn't, Wang Yang wouldn't trust him.

"Okay, I promise you, after you tell me about this, I absolutely won't ask him. Even if I have a relationship with him, I'll pretend I don't know anything. Otherwise, I'm worried I won't be able to pay you back!" Wang Yang continued to persuade him.

Xiao Yang thought about it and realized that Wang Yang's words made sense. If Wang Dadong found out about this, he might not give him the money. In that case, he wouldn't be able to repay Wang Yang, which wouldn't do him any good either.

"Okay, if you pay back the money from the casino for me, I'll tell you everything." Xiao Yang finally relented.

Wang Yang nodded and gestured to Xiao Jiang. Xiao Jiang followed the casino staff and helped Xiao Yang pay off all the money.

"You're pretty good, kid. You actually borrowed 8000 million from the casino!" Wang Yang raised an eyebrow.

Perhaps even Xiao Yang himself didn't expect that he would borrow a total of 180 million yuan tonight.

"Did you even consider this yourself? You borrowed so much money tonight, do you think you can pay it back?" Wang Yang asked.

Xiao Yang shook his head blankly: "I really didn't know I borrowed so much money. 180 million, even if I sold myself for the rest of my life, I still couldn't pay it back!"

"So you'd better think carefully about how to pay me back this money within half a month. Okay, come with me, tell me about your situation in the car," Wang Yang said.

As he spoke, Wang Yang had Xiao Jiang take Xiao Yang into the car.

"Tell me, what's the deal with that powerful figure behind you? I need to find out, otherwise I won't let you off easily," Wang Yang threatened.

Xiao Yang was terrified: "The person behind me has something for me to do. If I help him achieve his goal, he said he will give me more money. He has already given me 500 million."

Wang Yang thought about it and realized that when Xiao Yang first came to the casino, he must have brought that 500 million yuan with him.

"You've lost all 500 million you started today?"

Xiao Yang nodded and said, "That was all the money I had. Even if I kept losing, I could usually last for several days. Who would have thought that I would run into you today and lose it all in one go?"

Wang Yang couldn't help but laugh out loud: "So you're blaming me? If you hadn't run into me, you might have been able to win back that 500 million!"

"It's not your fault, it's just that I've been having really bad luck lately."

Xiao Yang glanced timidly at Wang Yang and said, "What I said is all true. The person behind me is a big shot. As long as I help him get that thing done, he definitely won't treat me unfairly. He's offering 500 million right off the bat, and it'll definitely be more after it's done. He also said he wants me to join his company. He doesn't have a son, so maybe he'll pass the company on to me in the future."

Seeing Xiao Yang's hopeful expression, Wang Yang felt a little reluctant to shatter his beautiful dream.

"Then tell me, who exactly is this person behind you? If you say I know them, then they must be quite famous locally."

Xiao Yang hesitated for a moment and said, "If I tell you his real name, can you please not ask him about it and not tell anyone else? After all, this is a secret between him and me."

Wang Yang quickly nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, if I tell anyone about this and you mess things up, then I won't be able to get my money back. I'm not stupid."

Xiao Yang thought for a moment, then continued, "It's Wang Dadong. He's a very famous businessman in the construction industry, and his company is quite well-known in our area. You should have heard of him, right?"

Wang Yang feigned sudden realization and said, "Oh, it's him. I don't really know him, but I often see him on TV. He's definitely quite wealthy. But how did you meet him?"

"It's a long story. Actually, he's a good person. He helped me when I was studying and didn't have money. I was hoping to get a job at his company after graduation, but I was just too disappointing."

As he spoke, Xiao Yang chuckled self-deprecatingly. Most of the students Wang Dadong sponsored had joined his company. Even those who didn't have achieved success in various industries. Only he couldn't find a job after graduation.

"So, if that's the case, then you're useless to him? What exactly is the secret you mentioned between you two?"

"But this involves a lot of secrets, and I can't tell you the specifics. He just wants me to do some things for him, and if I succeed, he'll definitely give me more money, maybe even the company."

Wang Yang couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What you're saying is very contradictory. You couldn't even find a job after graduating from university, and he didn't let you join his company. That means he knows you're not very capable."

"He knows you're incompetent, so why would he hand the company over to you? I'd believe him if he said he'd give you some money."

Xiao Yang was a simple child, and if Wang Yang hadn't said that, he would never have thought about it in that way.

"What do you mean by that? Are you lying to me? No way, what I did for him is extremely important to him; it's the only thing he wants to do for the rest of his life."

Wang Yang narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "What you've been doing, it can't be anything bad, can it? But you don't need to tell me, and I don't want to know either. After all, knowing too much won't do me any good."

"Yes, this involves someone's privacy, so I don't want to tell you. But it's really important to him, which is why he made that promise to me."

In Xiao Yang's heart, as long as he could help Wang Dadong accomplish this, he would be willing to risk his life.

"But have you ever considered that I can understand him giving you money? Since he knows you're not very capable, the things you did for him might just have been coincidental. But giving you the company seems very unlikely to me."

Xiao Jiang, who was standing to the side, nodded and said, "I also think it's impossible. Put yourself in their shoes. Your company is the culmination of most of your life's work. How could you possibly give it to someone like that?"

Xiao Yang frowned and thought about it, realizing that Wang Yang and Xiao Jiang both made sense. He had indeed been blinded by joy before. He knew very well how valuable Wang Dadong's company was; it was the most famous construction company in the area. If he could become the general manager, he would have more money than he could ever spend.

He had never seen so much money in his life, but according to Wang Yang, it was very likely that Wang Dadong was just lying to him.

"But why would he lie to me? He could have easily not said that."

Wang Yang let out a cold laugh: "The logic couldn't be simpler. What he's saying now is nothing but deceiving you. If you do things for him, he'll naturally make many promises to you, but he might not be able to keep them, who knows?"

Xiao Yang pondered for a moment and realized that he had indeed oversimplified things. How could Wang Dadong really hand over the company to him? He had ignored him for the past few years, but after figuring out his relationship with Wang Yang, he immediately promoted him, clearly intending to use this relationship to deal with Wang Yang.

"Young man, think it over carefully yourself. Only you can figure this out. Whether or not you continue to work for him is your own decision."

Xiao Yang hesitated: "If I don't work for him, how will I get money? Only by continuing to help him will he give me more money. I could never earn this much working at the clinic in my entire life."

"So why did you start gambling in the first place?"

Xiao Yang lowered his head in shame. It started when his father was addicted to gambling. Later, his father took him to a casino, and he became addicted after that.

“I don’t want this either, but you know, once you’re addicted to gambling, it’s impossible to control yourself. I just want to win more money. My family is not well-off; we’ve always been poor since I was a child. I want to improve my life.”

Wang Yang shook his head helplessly: "Even if you want to improve your life, you have to take the right path. Working hard and learning a skill is better than anything else."

"Actually, my cousin-in-law runs a clinic. He originally wanted to teach me medicine properly, but I was a disappointment and even helped Wang Dadong against him. In fact, I..."

At this point, Xiao Yang was filled with guilt. He knew that Wang Yang and Qin Tongtong had been very good to him, but if he didn't help Wang Dadong, he definitely wouldn't be able to pay back the money.

"I think you're not so bad after all. You could talk to your cousin-in-law; maybe they'll work together to find a solution."

Xiao Yang quickly shook his head: "No, no, how could he be a match for Wang Dadong? You know what kind of person Wang Dadong is. My cousin-in-law is just a small-time doctor. Although he has some reputation, how can a doctor fight against someone like him?"

It was precisely because Xiaoyang weighed these pros and cons that he chose Wang Dadong without hesitation.

"How about this, you go back and talk to Wang Dadong first, and see if he can lend you this much money."

Xiao Yang lowered his head, knowing that Wang Dadong definitely wouldn't agree.

“He definitely won’t give me that much money now. Maybe he’ll have me deal with my cousin-in-law first, and only after that happens will he lend me the money.”

This means that Wang Dadong will definitely pressure him to get rid of Wang Yang as soon as possible.

Now Wang Yang and Xiao Jiang couldn't keep up the act any longer. They knew that if Xiao Yang went to Wang Dadong, Wang Dadong would definitely pressure him.

The two exchanged a glance, then immediately removed their masks and hats, tearing away any disguises from their faces.

Seeing their series of actions, Xiao Yang was a little confused until he finally saw what the two looked like.

"Wang Yang, Xiao Jiang?"

"Yes, it was us. Didn't expect that, did you?"

Xiao Yang was so scared he almost jumped out of his skin. He was about to reach for the car door when Xiao Jiang pulled him back.

"You still want to run? Where do you think you can run to? We recorded everything you just said."

"Brother-in-law, I really didn't mean it. Please, please let me go. Wang Dadong forced me to do it. He really forced me!"

Wang Yang reassured him, "Don't worry, let's talk slowly. Actually, I knew you were the one who did this a long time ago, but I didn't expose you because I wanted to find out who was behind you."

Xiao Yang frowned as he looked at him. He had suspected Wang Yang before, but he didn't expect that Wang Yang actually knew.

“I knew a few days ago that Wang Dadong was the person behind it all, but I never understood why you would work for him. Now I understand. You owe so much money, so I used this scheme tonight to get you into my hands.”

Xiao Yang immediately knelt down: "Brother-in-law, you can punish me however you want, but my dad is old, so please don't let him know about this."

"How else can I punish you? You definitely can't pay back that money. But there's a way: you don't have to pay me back, but you have to do things for me."

Xiao Yang looked up, unable to believe that Wang Yang would still trust him after he had done so many bad things behind Wang Yang's back.

"Isn't Wang Dadong trying to get back at me? You know I'm no match for him on my own, so I need your help."

"What do you want me to do?" Xiao Yang asked timidly.

"It's simple, just get the evidence."

"How do we obtain evidence?"...

"Xiaoyang, you've been working for Wang Dadong for so long, haven't you kept anything that you can use against him? Aren't you worried that once you've done everything for him, he'll kick you to the curb?"

Xiao Yang shook his head blankly: "Wang Dadong told me before that if this matter succeeded, he would give me a large sum of money and let me join the company. He even said that maybe the company would be mine in the future. You know, his son is gone, and there are no other heirs."

Hearing this, Xiao Jiang was furious. He hadn't expected Xiao Yang to be so naive.

"Do you even have a brain? Do you think this is possible? There are so many capable people in his company, why would he entrust it to you? To let you ruin the foundation he's built up over a lifetime?"

Xiao Yang was a little embarrassed. What Xiao Jiang said was indeed true. His abilities were limited, but Wang Dadong kept saying that, so he believed it.
