Chapter 171: Before the Storm
Where had Gu Xinrui seen this formation, she was stunned at that time, stunned.
When she reacted, she quickly helped Luo Hongtao up, and asked him hurriedly, "Uncle Luo, what are you doing here?"
Luo Hongtao slowly got up with Gu Xinrui's support, and said to her with tears in his eyes: "Xinrui, only you can save me now." ”
Gu Xinrui was puzzled when she heard this, and she asked Luo Hongtao: "What do you mean by this?"
Luo Hongtao pulled Gu Xinrui to sit down at the square table, and then carefully told her the process of this business war, including how Qin Tianhai secretly made people calculate him, and he explained it clearly.
After Gu Xinrui listened, she didn't speak for a long time.
Luo Hongtao quietly observed Gu Xinrui's facial expression, waiting for her to react.
After being silent for a long time, Gu Xinrui said to Luo Hongtao helplessly: "You know the cruelty of business wars, why do you want to make a desperate bet regardless of the consequences?"
Luo Hongtao cried and said to Gu Xinrui with an old face: "A while ago, because of the real estate bubble caused by the financial tsunami, I suffered huge losses, and my assets shrank significantly...... Unwillingly, I always want to fight back and fight a beautiful turnaround and have a place in the medical field, who would have thought that ......"
Gu Xinrui looked at Luo Hongtao's bitter gourd face, let out a long sigh, and muttered: "Tianhai has always been ruthless in the battle of the business sea, you have known him for many years, you won't be unclear about this, right?"
Luo Hongtao glared at Gu Xinrui and said: "But I can't threaten his foundation at all, who doesn't know the strength of Qinfeng Group? Several souls of their R&D team are top scientists in China, I know that compared with him, I can only look at him, in terms of financial resources, background, and talents, I am not his opponent, but the problem is, he eats meat, can't I drink some broth? Do you have to kill people like this?"
Gu Xinrui looked at Luo Hongtao, who was trying his best to quibble, and said helplessly: "He has been planning for these projects for more than ten years, since the project was launched, he has to do everything himself, the importance of these projects can be imagined, you follow his footsteps, everywhere is imitating his process, this is the cake in his bowl has been moved, with his consistent ruthless style in the business world, how can he not use a killer weapon? Not to mention that you have used some unconventional competitive methods in the middle, which angers him even more......
As she spoke, Gu Xinrui shook her head and sighed repeatedly.
Luo Hongtao asked Gu Xinrui with a bitter face: "Then what do you say I should do now? A bunch of machines that I spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build have become scrap copper and rotten iron, and they are completely unusable, and all this money is a usurious loan I borrowed from the bank! If I can't pay it off the deadline, then I'll be finished!"
Gu Xinrui frowned and thought for a moment, and then said to Luo Hongtao: "In this way, I'll talk to Tianhai and try to persuade him to buy your machines at cost price, so that your losses can be minimized, and at the same time, it will not harm his business interests." ”
Luo Hongtao heard Gu Xinrui say this, and said in a hurry: "But in this way, all the funds I invested in the early stage have been wasted! Besides, with Qin Tianhai's always shrewd personality, he will not take back the pile of scrap copper and rotten iron in my hand so easily, and he may not put forward any harsh conditions at that time." ”
Gu Xinrui looked at Luo Hongtao helplessly and asked him, "Then how do you want me to help you?"
Luo Hongtao's eyes lit up, he took a step closer, and said to Gu Xinrui seriously: "This batch of machines in my hands, my engineers can't overhaul it because there are no design drawings, as long as you can get the initial design drawings of this batch of machines, you will know where the problem is." ”
Gu Xinrui frowned slightly, looked at Luo Hongtao, and asked softly, "Where can I get the design drawings you said?"
Luo Hongtao helped the frame of the mirror and said to Gu Xinrui cautiously: "The complete design drawings are only in Qin Tianhai's own hands. According to people who have followed him, Qin Tianhai is very vigilant when doing these projects, and before the assembly of several projects, no one except him has complete drawings in his hands, just to prevent secrets from being exposed. The people who have talked to him also said that in addition to his own relatives, it is difficult for Qin Tianhai to trust others, and the person closest to him is you at present, so I think he must have stored these confidential documents in your home, or somewhere you know it. ”
Hearing Luo Hongtao put forward such an unreasonable speculation, Gu Xinrui was taken aback, and then retorted sternly: "No! I don't know! Since I was pregnant and resigned at home, I have become a pure housewife, and I don't ask anything about his work anymore, so I don't know anything about this." ”
Listening to Gu Xinrui's cold words, Luo Hongtao prayed to her with a bitter old face: "Xinrui, you can help Dad! If I can't solve the problem in front of me, then I will face the fate of bankruptcy, because I have already lost a lot of money in real estate in the early stage, and if this medical project fails again, then the bank will confiscate all my movable and immovable property, including the house I live in now." Xinrui, can you bear to watch your father lead your stepmother and young brother to the streets at an age of nearly sixtieth birthday?"
Gu Xinrui was forced by Luo Hongtao to be very helpless, she stood up "open-mindedly", and hurriedly said to Luo Hongtao: "You...... You can't force me like that! Don't say that I don't know where he put those drawings at all, even if I know that Tianhai has always been kind to me, how can I do such an unkind and unjust betrayal of him? Those drawings were also brewed by him with more than ten years of painstaking efforts and a lot of money, how can you so easily rob others of the fruits of their labor?"
Speaking of this, Gu Xinrui looked at Luo Hongtao coldly, and said to him solemnly: "Don't talk any more, if you can agree with my plan, then I will adjust it and try to minimize your losses, if you can't agree, then I have no choice." ”
Listening to Gu Xinrui's cold words, Luo Hongtao's heart was completely desperate, he didn't speak again, just stood up slowly and slowly walked in front of Gu Xinrui.
Gu Xinrui looked at Luo Hongtao blankly, watching him walk in front of him.
However, suddenly, Luo Hongtao knelt at Gu Xinrui's feet with a "plop".
"You! you...... What is this for?" Luo Hongtao's move frightened Gu Xinrui's face was bloodless and incoherent, and she hurriedly leaned down to help Luo Hongtao.
"Xinrui, I beg you, for the sake of your father's birth to you, save me!" Luo Hongtao grabbed Gu Xinrui's arm and prayed to her with tears in his eyes.

In the next few days, Qin Tianhai went on a business trip to Macau, and planned to come back in two days, and Gu Xinlei came to accompany his eldest sister.
At night, Gu Xinrui sat on the sofa in a daze, and she didn't even know that the third sister Gu Xinlei walked to her.
It wasn't until Xinlei touched her lightly that Xinrui suddenly came back to her senses, and her body trembled violently.
"Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?" Xinlei asked with concern as she sat down next to Xinrui.
"Oh, no...... It's nothing. Xinrui smiled reluctantly, stood up, and said to Xinlei in disguise, "I'll go wash a few fruits." With that, he turned and went to the kitchen.
Xinlei looked at her sister's back and thought thoughtfully.
###
Two days later, after Qin Tianhai came back from Macau, because the child was still with his mother Liu Baoshuang, the rare and idle couple took advantage of a big week to go to the beach to play.
At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, it is the season when the weather is pleasant, and the two of them are dressed in light clothes and wander on the warm beach, and their hearts are extremely comfortable.
Qin Tianhai, who has always had a poisonous tongue, kept making all kinds of jokes with Gu Xinrui, one would say that Gu Xinrui was as stupid as the turtle crawling forward, and the other would say that she was as conservative as the conch and oyster, and wrapped herself deeply in the shell.
Gu Xinrui listened to Qin Tianhai's nonsense all the way, most of the time he only laughed and didn't say anything, ignoring him, if he said it too much, Gu Xinrui would catch up and punch him twice, and the couple frolicked and chased each other on the wide beach, bursts of cheerful and hearty laughter were endless.
After the frolic, Qin Tianhai hugged Gu Xinrui tightly in his arms and whispered to her: "Only when I am with you, I will laugh from the bottom of my heart." ”
Gu Xinrui raised her head and looked at Qin Tianhai, hesitated again and again, and said to him softly: "Tianhai, when you are with me, you always laugh at me, fool me, give me all kinds of nicknames, what kind of old virgin, fake seriousness and the like, do you really think I have no heart and no lungs?"
Qin Tianhai scratched Gu Xinrui's nose with a smile, and said to her softly: "Fool, those are nicknames, because I like you, I will tease you!" Then he kissed Gu Xinrui on the forehead affectionately, adding, "Every time I think of you in the office, I can't help but laugh." ”
Gu Xinrui pouted a little aggrieved, and said to Qin Tianhai hesitantly: "But I heard that when a man laughs when he thinks of a woman, it may only mean that he likes her very much, but it does not necessarily show how important she is in his heart...... In his heart, that woman was really ...... Significant. ”
Hearing Gu Xinrui say this, Qin Tianhai was stunned, and after being stunned, he asked Gu Xinrui softly: "Why are you talking so sadly today?"
Gu Xinrui shook her head with a reluctant smile, then looked at Qin Tianhai seriously, and asked him softly, "You just have to answer, if it is possible, are you willing to shed tears for me?"
Qin Tianhai looked stunned, and then he hugged Gu Xinrui tightly into his arms, and hurriedly murmured to her: "If it is possible, of course I will! It's just that there won't be a day like that, because I'll never let you leave my side!"
Listening to Qin Tianhai's affectionate confession, Gu Xinrui smiled with relief, but although she was smiling, tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes, which were tears of joy.
Qin Tianhai slowly let go of Gu Xinrui and lifted her delicate face, Gu Xinrui slowly closed her beautiful eyes, Qin Tianhai's fiery lips fell, and the two of them kissed passionately on the beach like this, forgetting everything around them.

A few days later, Qin Tianhai left for London to attend a summit forum of world-renowned entrepreneurs.
During the day, Gu Xinlei called her eldest sister, and when she heard that her brother-in-law was on a business trip again, Xinlei said to Xinrui: "Eldest sister, will I come to you at night to be your companion?"
Xinrui smiled softly and said to Xinlei: "I'm nothing, the child hasn't been at home for the past few days, but you always run to me, won't John have an opinion?"
Xinlei replied angrily: "Hey, don't mention him! We've broken up, and I'm about to talk to you about this, let's talk about it in the evening, I'm going to work now." ”
Hearing that the third sister had broken up with the American, Gu Xinrui was slightly surprised, and then replied, "Okay, I'll wait for you that night." ”
