Chapter 35: Brotherly Love
In the window position of a café in Luohai District, Shenhai City, Li Canghai slowly stirred the cup of hot coffee on the table, waiting for Song Qingcheng's arrival; Li Canghai was thinking about how to tell Song Qingcheng better, false account inventory, embezzlement of company property These are serious crimes, in the previous life, Li Canghai's father was framed and imprisoned for these things, and in this life, Li Canghai obviously cannot let the tragedy repeat again.
While Li Canghai was still slowly pondering, Song Qingcheng, who looked haggard, pushed open the door of the café and walked in, looking at his expression, which seemed to be seriously sleep-deprived.
Song Qingcheng looked around, and after determining Li Canghai's location, he walked towards Li Canghai with some anxiety, and sat opposite Li Canghai with some awkwardness, put the bag in his hand on the seat with some panic, and looked out the window with uneasy eyes.
Li Canghai looked up at Song Qingcheng, who looked uneasy, with his more than two hundred years of life experience, he already felt that Song Qingcheng obviously knew about Pangu creatures; Li Canghai asked lightly: "Qingcheng, look at your appearance, haven't you slept well in the past few days, so haggard." ”
Song Qingcheng put his hands on his face and rubbed it up and down vigorously for a while, and said with a forced smile: "It's okay, I'm a little sleepy, do you have anything to do with asking me out today?"
Li Canghai asked directly: "Qingcheng, has Liu Jingqi ever looked for you?"
Song Qingcheng's face was flustered, his eyes wandered around and he didn't dare to look directly into Li Canghai's eyes, and after a while, he sighed and said, "You've looked for me." ”
Li Canghai's thoughts in his heart were verified, he continued to stir the coffee in the cup, and asked without being salty: "Liu Jingqi is looking for you to meet your father Song Siming, unite to frame my father, and then plot to seize the assets of Pangea, right?"
Song Qingcheng was shocked when he heard this, and asked in shock, "How do you know? Did Liu Jingqi tell you?"
Li Canghai's face was not shocked, and he didn't answer Song Qingcheng's question directly, but said lightly: "If I didn't know about this, would you tell me?"
Song Qingcheng's face was flustered, he didn't know what to do, and he said in a tangled manner for a long time: "Canghai, when Liu Jingqi found my father and told my father that he wanted to frame your father and seize the company's property, I strongly objected, I had a big quarrel with my father, I was going to tell you right away, but my father told me something, and I realized that my father had already owed a lot of debts outside because of gambling, so he could only find a way to make up money from the company, and even borrowed money outside with a guarantee in the name of the company;
My father is already being forced to a dead end, Song Qingcheng said, if my father does not cooperate, I will go to the public security bureau to report him, this matter is to be sentenced to prison, Canghai, looking at my father pleading with me, I really can't bear to watch my father go to prison, but my conscience is uneasy, I can't face you, so I live in pain every day these days, and I don't know what to do!"
After saying this, Song Qingcheng seemed to have a lot of relief on his face, but begged Li Canghai bitterly and said: "Canghai, I know that my father has betrayed the trust of your parents and done a lot of bad things, but he is my father after all, for the sake of our two brothers growing up together, you beg your parents to intercede, don't go to the public security bureau to denounce my father, I can persuade my father to give up all the shares, if it is not enough, my father and I will find a way to make money to make up for the company's losses." ”
Li Canghai closed his eyes gently, and finally understood everything, but at this moment, he didn't have any intention of blaming Song Qingcheng, even if he changed his angle and asked Li Canghai to choose one in front of his father and brother, Li Canghai would not hesitate to stand on his father's side;
After a while, Li Canghai opened his eyes, looked at Song Qingcheng with an anxious face, and said softly: "Qingcheng, I called you out today, just to hear you tell me these things in person, I already know these things, I don't blame you, it is difficult for you to make a choice, the bad one is Liu Jingqi, I am angry about such a big thing, why don't you tell me, we are brothers, shouldn't there be something to solve together?"
Song Qingcheng looked at Li Canghai in disbelief, and asked happily: "Canghai, don't you really blame me?
Li Canghai nodded and said, "We are still brothers, but if there is anything in the future, any difficulty, you have to tell me, what your father can't solve, I can solve it, you just need to believe me." ”
Song Qingcheng asked anxiously, "What about my father's affairs and the crisis of Pangea?
Li Canghai nodded and said, "I already know." ”
When Song Qingcheng heard this, a trace of despair suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he muttered: "Then it's over, my father has done such an excessive thing, your parents will definitely not let him go." ”
Li Canghai shook his head and said: "Not necessarily, my parents are not the kind of ruthless people, on the contrary, they are very kind and affectionate people, if you ask your father to apologize to my parents in person and explain everything, I dare to guarantee that my parents will not embarrass him too much." ”
Song Qingcheng's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope again, and he asked eagerly, "Canghai, are you telling the truth?"
Li Canghai nodded and said, "If your father has concerns, I can go with you to see him and persuade him." ”
Song Qingcheng nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to my house now." ”
Li Canghai and Song Qingcheng came to the community where Song Qingcheng's family lived, walked to a building, got on the elevator, and after reaching the 17th floor, they walked to the door of a room, and Song Qingcheng took out the key to open the door.
At this time, Song Siming was drinking alone in the living room, smoking cigarettes one after another, and the whole room was full of smoke; Song Siming saw Li Canghai who was following Song Qingcheng, his face showed a trace of panic, and soon he calmed down and asked, "Canghai, why are you here?"
Song Qingcheng lowered his head and said apologetically: "Dad, I'm sorry, I told Canghai everything." ”
Song Siming's body was shocked, and all kinds of complicated expressions instantly appeared on his face, and after a long time, he sighed, sat down on the sofa, and said: "It's okay, Qingcheng, it's okay if you say it, you did the right thing, you are affectionate and righteous, Dad is not as good as you." ”
After speaking, Song Siming looked at Li Canghai calmly and said: "Canghai, since you know, what do you want to know, you ask, I will tell you, what your parents do with me, I am also willing." ”
Li Canghai said softly: "Uncle Song, I didn't come today to ask you for guilt, you did do a lot of wrong things, you must correct and make up for it in the future, but we have always been a family, you and my father are like brothers, my father has always trusted you unconditionally, and I am the same with Qingcheng, we are not the time to be held accountable, someone wants to break down the relationship between our two families and Pangea Biology, we have to find a way to solve the problem." ”
When Song Siming heard Li Canghai say this, the guilt and regret in his heart could no longer be controlled, he was excited, burst into tears, and said with self-blame: "It's all my fault that I'm not good, I was led on the gambling thief ship by others, and after indulging in it, my mind was full of gambling, winning money, making the company like this, losing so much money, what can I do, there is no way to solve it." ”
Li Canghai said: "Uncle Song, my parents must be in pain now, but they haven't looked for you, and they probably have a glimmer of hope for you, you know what my parents are, if you confess to them as soon as possible, they won't embarrass you." ”
Song Siming held his head in his hands and said bitterly: "No, this time is different, the things I made out are too serious, the whole company is in danger, our more than 20 years of hard work will be ruined, your parents will not forgive me, even if they forgive me, I will not have the face to see them again." ”
Li Canghai persuaded again: "Uncle Song, if you are willing to believe me, just listen to me once, you go and apologize to my parents, as for the company's affairs, I have a way to solve it, and when I solve the problem, I will tell you how to operate." ”
Song Siming looked at Li Canghai in disbelief, then at Song Qingcheng, and asked, "What can you do? Do you know how much it will cost to solve these things?"
Li Canghai said calmly: "Ten million is enough." ”
Song Siming's face was stunned, listening to Li Canghai's tone, it seemed that 10 million was not much money at all, could it be that Li Canghai had a super rich friend? Why did Song Qingcheng never mention it?
Song Siming was full of doubts in his heart, but now that he was desperate, he didn't have the heart to think about these things at all, so he could only treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, nodded and said, "I believe you, I'll go to see your parents." ”
After Song Siming went out, Song Qingcheng asked suspiciously: "Qingcheng, where did you get 10 million? Liu Jingqi lost to you that day, and only transferred 5 million to you, where can we go to make up the other 5 million?"
Li Canghai patted Song Qingcheng on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, I know it in my heart, I said that if it can be solved, it will definitely be solved, but when the time comes, I need you to help me testify, so I said that a very rich friend I met outside helped." ”
Song Qingcheng nodded and said, "This is no problem, as long as the matter can be solved, I will do whatever you tell me to do." ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "That's okay, I'll go first, you wait for your father to come back, and I will take care of Liu Jingqi's place, you don't have to worry." ”
After speaking, Li Canghai walked to the door.
Song Qingcheng was so moved that he exclaimed, "Canghai!"
Li Canghai turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Song Qingcheng's eyes couldn't stop the tears from flowing down, and said, "Thank you." ”
Li Canghai smiled and said, "Since we are brothers, don't talk about this, the man doesn't flick if he has tears, take back the tears for me!"
