Chapter 161: Marriott's Suggestion
Riverside Hotel.
Ye Cheng sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and soon someone knocked on the door and walked in.
"Boss, Mr. Wan has arrived. A man in black whispered into Ye Cheng's ear and said.
"Please. Ye Cheng got up, his face tired.
Soon, footsteps sounded, and Marriott, dressed in casual clothes, walked in with squinting eyes.
"Brother Hao, sit down!" Ye Cheng stood up with a smile and greeted Marriott.
"Ye Gongzi, we just met last night, why are you looking for me again today?"
Ye Cheng shook his head when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Hehe, Brother Hao, there is something you may not know...... It's a shame to say it, and I also blame myself for being too light on the enemy, after a battle yesterday, not only did I not take advantage of it, but I folded one of the elders of the Li family into it. β
"What?" Marriott pretended to be stunned when he heard this.
Since Ye Cheng finished talking to him last night, Ye Cheng didn't know about his later meeting with Su Rui, so until now, Ye Cheng thought that Marriott had abandoned Su Rui in his heart.
And the news of Chen Dong's arrest, he naturally knew it for a long time.
"Chen Dong was arrested by the man surnamed Su, and the Li family now means ...... Within seven days, Chen Dong must return. Ye Cheng sighed expressionlessly.
Marriott lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes and said, "In that case, it's really a bit troublesome...... The initiative is in Su Rui's hands, he must point to this one, and he will knock you hard!"
"The point is, he doesn't want money now. Ye Cheng opened a box of shredded cigarettes very skillfully and rolled them up with cigarette paper thinly, "He asked Li Guodong to talk to him personally after he came back." β
Marriott raised an eyebrow.
"Huh...... In this way, what will my image become in the heart of this future father-in-law?" Ye Cheng leaned forward and smiled: "With such excellent conditions, I have been defeated, isn't this just a waste?"
Marriott laughed, but didn't speak.
"What I mean by coming today is to ask Brother Hao to probe Su Rui's tone for me and see if I can find out Chen Dong's whereabouts from his mouth. Ye Cheng smiled and lit a homemade cigarette and said very sincerely.
It's the best way he can think of at the moment.
"Are you trying to rob someone?" asked Marriott.
"Is there any other way?" Ye Cheng spread his hands and said very helplessly: "Money, he doesn't want it!" people, he has neither relatives nor good friends, and the only Ruobing can't be moved." β
Marriott fell into deep thought.
"Brother Hao, I won't let you help in vain! What I talked to you about last time, as long as you help me this time, I can honor it immediately. Ye Cheng said softly, he also knows Marriott's family affairs very well: "Actually, I won't tell you, among the business partners that your brother cooperates with, I also have friends I know, if you want to know something, I can provide you with channels!"
Marriott intervened and raised Erlang, as if thinking about Ye Cheng's proposal.
The empty room fell silent.
Suddenly, Marriott laughed.
"Ye Gongzi, let me ask you a question, why do you think the Li family has to let Chen Dong go back?" asked Marriott.
"Because the Li family wants face. Ye Cheng said very simply.
"There must be more than one reason, right?" said Marriott, chuckling.
"Then what else can ......" Ye Cheng paused suddenly, and then recalled the expression and tone on Mrs. Li's face when she told him these words.
Chen Dong must be snatched back before your Uncle Li returns to China......
He is your Uncle Li's confidant, and he knows too many things about the Li family......
Su Rui is a madman, no one can expect what he will do, in case Chen Dong is forced to say something that should not be said, we will be very passive......
These words echoed in his mind, and Ye Cheng's gaze gradually became a little clearer.
"If the so-called henchmen fall into the hands of the enemy, it will be a great disaster. Marriott smiled slightly, and said in a very calm tone: "There are some things that the people of the Li family can't say directly in front of you, but if you think about it carefully, do the people of the Li family really want Chen Dong to go back?"
"If they really want to change Chen Dong back, even if it costs a big price, they will do it, why let you be an outsider to interfere?"
They were just afraid that Chen Dong would fall into Su Rui's hands and say something that shouldn't be said. β
Marriott's words are like a slap in the face.
Ye Cheng frowned, slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and thought carefully in his mind.
Marriott does have some truth in what he said.
But, what should I do?
Bringing Chen Dong back is certainly the best of both worlds, but it is very difficult to escape from the other party's heavily guarded base camp with a seriously injured person.
And if the operation is not good, it is likely to lose the wife and the soldiers.
Directly Chen Dong......
In this way, although the Li family may be dissatisfied with themselves on the surface, Chen Dong is just a housekeeper in the end, if the matter is a foregone conclusion, what can the Li family do?
Li Guodong will never do anything to himself because of a Chen Dong.
On the surface, they are dissatisfied, but behind the scenes, don't they still want to marry the Ye family?
If that's what Marriott says...... The reason why Mrs. Li handed over this matter to herself was because she had already had such a thought, and because Chen Dong was the patriarch of the Li family, she was embarrassed to do it directly?
At this thought, Ye Cheng blinked.
"I don't know too much about the Li family, but I know that although Chen Dong is old, your fiancΓ©e Li Ruobing can't get used to him......" Marriott smiled again, "If she really marries in the future, she nagged about this matter in your ear every day, are you bothered?"
Ye Cheng fell into deep thought.
"Huh...... I'm just commenting as an outsider, just for reference, of course, the choice is yours, if you can save Chen Dong safely, you can naturally get the best of both worlds. Marriott smiled and picked up the coffee cup on the table and took a sip: "Location, I can try it for you, but I don't guarantee that I can get it, after all, this is a very important matter, and Su Rui may not be able to believe me." β
"Then it's troublesome Brother Hao. Ye Cheng stood up, and his attitude obviously became much more enthusiastic: "After this matter is over, I invite you to Yanjing and introduce a few business partners to you!"
"The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet," Marriott got up very freely and walked towards the gate: "Wait for my news." β
Inside the warehouse in the north of the city.
Chen Dong was locked in a claustrophobic water room, looking at the sky outside through the narrow ventilation opening, stunned.
"Bang dang. β
The red-haired man walked in.
He carried a bag of instant noodles in his hand, threw it to Chen Dong's side and said, "Eat it." β
"Get me some water to drink. Chen Dong's voice was hoarse and his lips were chapped.
"I said that you are also a problem, you can give others whatever they want...... Do you still suffer from this crime?" Hongmao thought for a while, and then poured some hot water from the thermos next to him and handed it to Chen Dong.
