Murky Situations

The man in front in front of Tang Xiu nodded unctuously while holding the phone next to his ear. "We're indeed on the liner already, Boss. For you to call us now, do you have any instructions for us?"
"Stop collecting protection fee and take all the boys to Guangyang. Don't do anything rash and come back immediately to my place. We are not to collect protection money on the liner anymore starting today. I… I just got a call from Brother Lei," the man replied from the phone.
Brother Lei? As in… Ouyang Lei?
The man instantly understood. It must be that Tang Xiu made a phone call to Ouyang Lei in advance, as such coincidence as Ouyang Lei calling his Boss at this time was otherwise unlikely.
"I understand, Boss. I… I just promised Boss Tang that I won't be collecting protection money anymore later," replied the man bitterly with shivering lips.
