I Was Stuck on the Same Day For a Thousand Years-Chapter 273

Chapter 273: Because of my brother

Hu Xilin was very familiar with this place, so he went straight to the study.

“Old Lei, you…” Hu Xilin opened the door and spoke, but stopped before he finished speaking because he saw Lei Cheng had guests.

Hu Xilin didn’t know Wu Chen either.

He heard of Wu Chen’s name, but he had never seen it in person, so he didn’t recognize it.

“You have guests.” Hu Xilin stopped at the door and gestured outside, “How about I go downstairs and sit down first?”

He spoke to Lei Cheng in a very familiar and casual tone.

“No, no, no, Lao Hu, come here. You are not an outsider.” Lei Cheng stood up and greeted, gesturing for Hu Xilin to come in.

Hu Xilin entered the study.

Lei Cheng and Wu Chen both stood up.

“Come on, Brother Wu. Let me introduce you. This is Boss Hu…” Lei Cheng put his hand on Wu Chen’s shoulder and made gestures with his other hand to introduce him.

“This is my brother, Brother Wu,” Lei Cheng introduced Wu Chen to Hu Xilin.

He didn’t mention Wu Chen’s name, just said he was a brother and only mentioned his last name.

Hu Xilin didn’t know when Lei Cheng had a little brother named Wu, but to be called a brother by Lei Cheng, his status must be extraordinary. Hu Xilin would not take it lightly.

“Boss Hu, nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you.”

The two shook hands, and Hu Xilin looked very sincere and enthusiastic. He could do such a big business, so he naturally understood the ways of the world. Whether he was familiar with him or not, he would show favorability.

“Sit down, sit down, don’t stand.” Lei Cheng spoke again.

They all sat down.

Hu Xilin sat on the other side of the couch. As soon as he sat down, he threw the bag on the coffee table with a very relaxed posture.

“Brother Hu, what are you doing? In just two phone calls, you rushed into my home?” Lei Cheng glanced at Hu Xilin and said after sitting down.

“Aren’t you going to get into trouble? Can I see you getting into trouble?” Hu Xilin said in a somewhat aggressive tone, as if he was very reasonable.

“What are you talking about? What am I doing to get into trouble? Don’t you know what my brother and I have been doing these past few years?” Lei Cheng said.

“That’s right, I know. Haven’t you been pretty good these past few years, so why are you meddling in it? You and your elder brother have been having this thing for many years. I know you have always suspected him, but there is no evidence… After so many years, why are you going against him again…” Hu Xilin said.

One thing was worth mentioning.

That was Lei Cheng’s car accident that year. Everything was just suspicion.

Although Lei Cheng’s personal judgment was that it was Lei You who did it, outsiders could not be so sure.

Especially those who were familiar with Lei You. Some felt that it could not be Lei You and felt that Lei You was not that kind of person.

Hu Xilin said a few words to Lei Cheng, which was a bit cryptic.

Because Wu Chen was here, there were some things that he couldn’t say clearly. He also didn’t know what the relationship between this “Brother Wu” and Lei Cheng was, and whether he knew what happened to Lei Cheng back then.

“Lao Hu, don’t worry about this. It has nothing to do with you,” Lei Cheng said.

“What do you mean it doesn’t matter? Can you help with that? Which of the Ding family and Li family is easy to mess with? If you get involved, doesn’t that cause trouble for your family? I’m a brother… can I watch you jump into the fire pit?” What Hu Xilin said can be said to be very righteous.

“What’s a fire pit? What did Lei You tell you?” Lei Cheng frowned slightly.

In fact, it was a cliche. Lei Cheng didn’t ask Hu Xilin in detail in the previous two calls. It was unnecessary. He just told him to leave it alone.

But it’s different now.

He had to know what Lei You said.

“He just said…” Hu Xilin was also an honest person. He was about to say it but stopped for a moment and glanced at Wu Chen.

Can you tell this to “Brother Wu” in person?

Yes!

Because Lei Cheng asked in person, he was not afraid of being listened to by Brother Wu. For Hu Xilin, there was nothing he couldn’t say.

After all, Lei Cheng himself didn’t care and wasn’t on guard against his little brother.

None of the legitimate owners had any objections. As an “outsider”, Hu Xilin had nothing to worry about!

“What did he say? You’re hesitant. There are no outsiders, so you can say it,” Lei Cheng frowned and urged Hu Xilin.

“He told me that you asked Miss Tao to accept the endorsement of Li Ruobing’s company. The Ding family… Ding Ruilong didn’t want Li Ruobing’s business to start. Didn’t Ding Ruilong call you? He asked you, and now he went to your eldest brother…”

Hu Xilin said after careful consideration, and then spoke faster, “Why do you think you need it? What if the Ding family wants to do something to Hongfa because of you? Li Ruobing and Li Ruotai are forcing you. No? Why do you have to wade into this muddy water?”

“We who do business do not interfere in the matters between big families. Is peace and quiet not good? Isn’t this just looking for trouble?” Hu Xilin said this, a bit alarmed.

It was impossible for the Ding family to touch Hongfa Group because of such a trivial matter.

Hu Xilin deliberately exaggerated his words in order to make Lei Cheng change his mind.

He really didn’t understand what Lei Cheng thought.

Why do you want to get mixed up with this? It’s completely avoidable!

In business, peace was the most important thing. Don’t get involved in unnecessary disputes. Just hide if you can!

“What do you mean by looking for trouble?” Lei Cheng said, “Manying signed a contract with Symphony Fashion and acted in accordance with the contract. It was not easy for Manying to reach this point today. Do you want us to lose our reputation? Does breaking the contract sound good? Is it necessary to break the contract?”

“Are you pretending to be stupid with me?” Hu Xilin tapped his fingers on the coffee table with a little excitement, “Brother, can I hurt you? Breaking the contract is not easy? You let Miss Tao stay in a hospital and open a fake medical record. It’s force majeure… Won’t the contract be terminated?”

“Isn’t that a lie? If people know about it, won’t it offend them?” Lei Cheng replied.

“Lie… lie… okay! Then we won’t lie!” Hu Xilin thought, and then changed his voice and said, “Can you just tell Li Ruobing the matter and let her know? Can Li Ruobing still make things difficult for you? Aren’t you two friends?”

“If she knows that you are being embarrassed by your family… or just tell her directly that Ding Ruilong is threatening you. Just say that, and she will definitely understand you!” Hu Xilin paid attention to Lei Cheng’s expression, paused for a moment, and then simply said, “If you are embarrassed, then I will go find Li Ruobing. I will tell her for you. I will pay her a visit in private and make it clear that we have difficulties and reasons! I will let her know that she is not unreasonable and will definitely agree to terminate the contract.”

It’s true that Hu Xilin liked to be nosy, and it’s also true that he was righteous.

He was very good at talking, could make suggestions, and dared to stand up for his friends.

And he knew that although Li Ruobing was a bit domineering, she was very reasonable and did not embarrass her friends!

If she knew that she had brought trouble to her friends, with her character, she would definitely take the initiative to solve the problem!

“Who told you that Li Ruobing and I are friends?” Lei Cheng asked Hu Xilin in a slightly wrong tone.

“You… Then you… aren’t you?” Hu Xilin was a little stuck for a moment and was confused by the question.

“Miss Li and I don’t know each other. We have never met before,” Lei Cheng said.

Hu Xilin continued to be confused.

That’s not right! If Lei Cheng and Li Ruobing didn’t know each other, then how could Tao Manying endorse Symphony Fashion?

It couldn’t be that Tao Manying and Li Ruobing are friends, right? That’s why… this is impossible! Tao Manying can’t do it without authorization.

Taking the initiative and endorsing Li Ruobing’s company’s products would cause trouble for Lei Cheng.

Besides, a superstar like Tao Manying would not normally endorse the products of a small company like Symphony Fashion! It is abnormal for her to endorse the products of Symphony Fashion, so it must be Lei Cheng’s decision! freewebnoveℓ.com

So… because of Li Ruotai? Lei Cheng and Li Ruotai are friends?

No! Even more impossible!

Everyone in the Donghai business district knows that Li Ruobing does not rely on family connections to do business. She was very strong and independent! She will never leave anything up to her younger brother!

I don’t know why, but she’s a bit weird to be independent!

So it can’t be related to Li Ruotai!

Hu Xilin couldn’t figure it out at all.

“Never seen her? Well, then…” Hu Xilin asked, confused.

“Because of my brother,” Lei Cheng said, he raised his hand and patted Wu Chen’s shoulder who was sitting on the sofa chair next to him.

Hu Xilin looked at Wu Chen blankly.
