MTL - Winner Takes All-Chapter 74 .the latest update
The efficiency of the assistant was very high. Two days later, Li Shuo responded. Xu Darui did borrow usury and now he was hiding around.
Li Shuo kept receiving all kinds of begging information from Xu Darui. He didn't reply. He planned to leave the matter to the assistant, but it is definitely not now, but years later. If Xu Darui is not to suffer this time, Next time, maybe there is still the courage to gamble, he is not a cash machine.
He's really busy these days. Various social activities were very frequent years ago, and he still had to spare as much time as possible to deal with those materials. He could only sleep for three or four hours for a few days, resulting in mental illness. Fortunately, Zhao Jinxin did not come to him these days. When he was at home, Zhao Jinxin would converge, but his dad hadn't talked to him much for several days.
On New Year's Eve, a family of three dressed up to attend the Spring Festival Gala of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. In recent years, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce has become more and more rich. It has been able to invite a lot of domestic and foreign stars, and the program level is quite high. However, Li Shuo does not pay much attention to the entertainment industry, and he does not know anyone who comes.
As the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Zhao Rongtian's family is naturally the most noticed. Remember that when he had never met Zhao Jinxin before, Li Shuo had heard how handsome Zhao Rongtian's son was. Never met.
As soon as the Zhao family appeared, it caused a little commotion. Zhao Rongtian sat at the main table of New York politicians, the chamber of commerce chief and vice president, and Li Shuo's father passed. The families of these people are sitting next to them.
Li Shuo watched Zhao Jinxin lead Mrs. Zhao, and sat beside them with a smile.
"Li Shuo, why have you lost weight in a few months?" Madam Zhao chuckled with a smile.
Li Shuo laughed: "There were too many things to be busy years ago, and I felt tired than going to work. Auntie was more glorious than last time I saw her."
The two chatted for a while, and Mrs. Zhao went to Li Shuo's mother to speak.
Zhao Jinxin leaned slightly and whispered in Li Shuo's ear: "Are you not resting well these days, what are you doing?"
"Busy social."
"It hurts to see you have dark circles." Zhao Jinxin quietly held Li Shuo's hand.
Li Shuo drew a bit, but did not pull it out. Instead, he was dragged under the tablecloth by Zhao Jinxin, rubbing his thumb lightly.
Li Shuo glanced at him, his eyes full of warning.
Zhao Jinxin smiled softly, blinked his eyes slightly, and said "miss you" with the shape of his mouth.
Li Shuo had no choice but to go with him. Li Shuo knows that Zhao Jinxin is very good at soliciting people in such small details, and these deliberate behaviors by him do not make people feel incompatible. But I need to ring a twelve-minute alarm in order to resist the surge of my heart.
Zhao Jinxin's charm has never diminished, he just doesn't want to continue to be addicted.
After the host made an opening remark, the deputy mayor of New York came to the stage to speak, followed by Zhao Rongtian.
Zhao Jinxin smiled and said to Li Shuo, "My dad really has fan, right?"
"Yes."
"If you will, he will be your dad in the future."
"Be honest." Li Shuo tried to withdraw his hand again, but was still unsuccessful. Zhao Jinxin shook his hands and sweated, still refused to release.
"I'm serious." Zhao Jinxin whispered, "You say, I can come out on the spot."
Li Shuo frowned and ignored him.
"You don't believe me." Zhao Jinxin suddenly let go of his hand and stood up.
Li Shuo was startled in shock, grabbed Zhao Jinxin's arm, and whispered, "What are you doing!"
The people nearby were startled and looked at them.
Zhao Jinxin blinked slyly: "Go to the bathroom."
Li Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, he really did not dare to make conservative guesses on people like Zhao Jinxin.
Mrs. Zhao grabbed Zhao Jinxin's sleeve suddenly: "The light in the toilet in the lobby is broken. Mom will go with you."
Suddenly, Li Shuo remembered that Zhao Jinxin had interrupted his meeting with Han Feiye for fear of darkness. He always felt that Zhao Jinxin was playing tricks. Is it true?
Zhao Jinxin seemed a little embarrassed: "Mom, how do you stay with me, no need, I go to other floors."
Mrs. Zhao looked at Li Shuo, and she got close to Li Shuo and whispered with a little embarrassment: "Li Shuo, can you go with Jin Xin to the bathroom? The lamp is broken, I'm afraid he ... uh, I fell. "
Li Shuo patted her hand and said softly, "OK."
The two got up and walked out of the banquet hall.
As soon as he went out, Li Shuo said, "You don't really want to go to the bathroom."
Zhao Jinxin shrugged: "No, the heating is too big in the inside, it's so hot to me."
Li Shuo paused: "Are you really ... afraid of darkness?"
"It's true, but when I grow up, I overcome a lot." Zhao Jinxin held Li Shuo's arm and laughed, "Moreover, Uncle Li will protect me?"
Li Shuo paused, still could not restrain curiosity: "Why?"
"I went surfing when I was a kid, and I was hit by a surfboard. After being blind for a few days, I have been afraid of darkness since then, but as long as someone is with me, I won't be afraid."
Li Shuo coughed, "You're such an adult, you should learn to overcome your inner fear."
"sometimes……"
Li Shuo's text message interrupted him. Li Shuo looked down and sent it from Xu Darui, but this time it was not a text message but a file attached. He was curious to open the text message and there was a player inside Sign, he took a look at Zhao Jinxin and turned to the corner.
Zhao Jinxin looked at him in place.
Walking to a quiet place, Li Shuo pressed the play button. He originally thought it was a video, but he didn't expect it to be audio. When it was played, it was a man's cry. He was frightened, and quickly pressed the pause.
Zhao Jinxin heard something faintly several meters away, and he said, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Li Shuo's heart pounded. He could discern that it was Xu Darui's cry. Did Xu Darui be a loan shark ... he didn't dare to think down. He wanted to give Xu Darui some lessons, but If there is any serious physical injury caused by this, he will be troubled, but he calms down quickly. If Xu Darui is used to violence, how can he send audio to him? You should send it to your family. Usury people read their text messages?
Li Shuo took a deep breath, stuck the mobile phone to his ear, and pressed the play button again. Crying and Xu Darui's vague begging continued to come, but the more he listened, the more he felt wrong, until he heard his own voice. ...
Li Shuo was shocked.
This audio seems to be ... the conversation when Xu Darui was confronted with his account! Xu Darui cried and begged him not to expose, and he promised that as long as the working capital was in place, he could perfectly cover up the deception of the loan. They therefore talked about it in the middle of the night, and they talked very hard. error……
Li Shuo's face was iron-blue. He didn't expect Xu Darui to record at the time. He thought that only the two of them knew about the night, but did not expect Xu Darui to keep this hand!
The more he listened, the colder he became. What scared him was not the audio that threatened him, but the sinister heart.
"Li Shuo." Zhao Jinxin suddenly pulled over Li Shuo's shoulder.
Li Shuo stared at Zhao Jinxin with wide eyes, his eyes were blank.
Zhao Jinxin grabbed the phone and put it in his ear, but the audio was just over.
Li Shuo responded, snatched the phone, and calmly said, "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Jinxin touched his face. "What did you hear? Who sent something?"
"The one who asked me to borrow money." Li Shuo shrugged. "I'll just let the assistant do it."
Zhao Jinxin frowned, and wanted to get the phone, Li Shuo put the phone in his pocket: "This matter has nothing to do with you."
"What's your matter has nothing to do with me?" Zhao Jinxin solemnly said, "Li Shuo, I am your man. No matter what happens to you, it has something to do with me, especially troublesome things."
Li Shuo pushed him away: "My own business, I handle it myself, do you look down on me when you are nosy?"
Zhao Jinxin sighed: "The most I get from you now is to refuse."
"Then you probably don't get enough." Li Shuo was upset, and the words he spoke were naturally not very pleasant.
Zhao Jinxin's eyes flashed with injuries, and his eyelids dropped.
Li Shuo's heart was also very unpleasant. He didn't want to touch any bad luck in the New Year, but he was so unlucky that he didn't have the energy to deal with Zhao Jinxin. He held the mobile phone in his pants pocket and strode to the banquet hall.
Zhao Jinxin punched on the wall with unwilling expression.
Li Shuo returned to his seat, took out his mobile phone, and Xu Darui's text messages chased after him, one by one, very short, but he could see that his mental state was a little unusual.
"Brother, I don't want to go this far. You forced me."
"Even you look down on me."
"I'm Xu Darui, a morale-talker. I didn't confess you at the time. I'm forced to die now. You won't help me."
"Why didn't you stop me then? Aren't you the most upright."
"Why don't you stop me."
"Li Shuo, do you hate me? I have nothing now, and I am not afraid of anything."
"Li Shuo, help me, don't force me."
Li Shuo felt that his eyes were faint. Something was clogged in his chest. He couldn't get out, and his breathing became heavy.
He did not expect that his temporary reluctance at the time would cause the situation like today. He did not deliberately harm others and did not intend to make illegal profits, but he got himself into such a troublesome situation, and even paid enough price. Get out.
Xu Darui's actions also made him feel cold. He settled down and replied Xu Darui a word: wait.
He decided to stabilize Xu Darui first, and then to find a way. A piece of audio could not be used as evidence to sue him, not to mention that the case had passed so many years, but it was enough to cause him a lot of trouble. Reputation is destroyed once again, these are more important than money. But if he succumbs to Xu Darui's threat, it is likely that he will really become a cash machine.
Is it necessary to use some extraordinary means ...
Unconsciously, Zhao Jinxin had sat back to him.
Li Shuo glanced at him, put his mobile phone in his pocket, and continued to watch the show as usual.
After the show, some people stayed for dinner, most of them were international student representatives or migrant workers whose families were not here, while others went home for reunion dinner.
Zhao Rongtian invited Li Shuo's family to have a reunion dinner together. Li Shuo knew this would happen, not sure if it was his illusion. He felt that the two families were getting closer and closer, but think about his father and Zhao Rongtian having such a great bond of interest It is reasonable to deal with the relationship.
So the two went to Zhao Rongtian's house by car.
Zhao Rongtian's mansion was decorated with a festive atmosphere. This is a very rare Chinese mansion in the Upper East Side. At this time, the color of the lantern is a representative red for the Chinese New Year in Manhattan.
The New Year's Eve dinner is already open. As soon as they enter the house, the servants start to pass the dishes, and the two live a lively Chinese New Year.
Looking at the effervescent smiles on the elders' faces, Zhao Jinxin smiled at him with a gentle look from time to time, Li Shuo suddenly realized that the picture was so beautiful that it couldn't bear to interrupt.
But this beauty is superficial, Zhao Jinxin threatened his expression, eyes, and words, which were branded in his mind frame by frame ... 2k novel reading network
