"Good work. ”

Chen Chen smiled and took the windbreaker handed by Li Yuan, noticed that his expression was a little strange, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's fine. Li Yuan rubbed his face, showed a reluctant smile, and said, "I always feel that if I continue like this, I won't even be able to recognize myself." ”

Chen Chen was stunned, hung his windbreaker on the hanger, and asked, "What do you want to drink?"

"Coffee bar. ”

Li Yuan said, walked to the window, sat on the sofa cushion, and looked up at the moonlight outside.

After a while, Chen Chen came over with two cans of beer.

"I'm going to go out early tomorrow morning, drink some wine, and rest early. ”

"Yes. ”

Li Yuan opened the beer and took a sip.

"Don't want to go?"

Chen Chen asked, and when he saw Li Yuan shaking his head, he said, "You won't really like that girl, will you?"

Li Yuan still shook his head.

He took a sip of his wine and said, "I just think ...... Some of them are reluctant to go. ”

Seeing him like this, Chen Chen felt a little guilty.

In the past few days, in order to stimulate Li Annie's "vinegar", Li Yuan and Avril have had a lot of interactions, many of which are intimate actions, and all of this was planned by Chen Chen.

There's no way around it.

For an introverted girl like Annie Lee, it is useless to blindly show the charm of a man, and chasing and beating her will only make her hide back in the shell.

The only way is for her to break her defenses on her own.

The best way to make a passive girl take the initiative is to find her a competitor.

Chen Chen's initial choice of "love rival" for Li Annie was Shen Zhuyin, but according to his secret observation, he found that the stimulation was greater.

In this case, Avril became the replacement.

……

From a rational point of view, Li Yuan agrees with Li Annie's judgment.

On the one hand, Avril's age, identity, and personality make her less threatening, and Anne Lee will feel nervous, but she will not be inferior to the point of retreating.

On the other hand, Avril's status as a foreigner will also make Anne Lee subconsciously have the idea of "returning to China".

Li Yuan agrees with these points of view, and also launched a "two-line love" according to the plan, and so far, the effect is not bad.

But approval does not mean approval.

Using an unwitting girl to achieve an ulterior purpose is always unpleasant.

……

After drinking, Li Yuan and Chen Chen carefully chatted about the details that needed to be paid attention to the next day, and chatted until two o'clock in the morning, and then went back to the room to sleep.

When I woke up, my heart was like water, and the white moonlight of last night also stayed last night.

……

At noon, Li Yuan met Li Shilin at Li Annie's home.

The conversation took place at the dinner table.

In addition to Li Shilin, there were also his mother, daughter, a younger brother, and two men suspected of being key members of the organization.

After a nutritious conversation, Li Shilin cut to the chase.

"You like my daughter?"

Li Shilin's straightforward question made Li Annie beside her blush.

Li Yuan smiled easily and said, "Your daughter is very special. ”

"Are you going to marry her?"

This sentence is more straightforward.

Li Yuan smiled: "Don't you think it's too early to say this?"

"So you're just going to play?"

Li Shilin stared at Li Yuan intently, and said, "I have read the newspaper recently, and you have a lot of scandals......

No less, indeed.

Li Yuan's popularity in the gossip tabloids has not been low these days, and he was first photographed entering and leaving the hotel suite with Paris, and then he was photographed with Ai

Wei'er is not well-known in the hotel, but the identity of a minor still attracts a lot of attention, of course, Li Yuan entrusted Huang Xiaofu and the consulate to issue a clarification statement in the newspaper on the day of publication. As for filing a defamation lawsuit, there is neither time nor point.

Facing Li Shilin's questioning, Li Yuan said lightly: "It's all nothing. ”

Seeing that Li Yuan had no intention of explaining, Li Shilin did not hold on.

He actually didn't care whether Li Yuan was devoted or dedicated, he only cared about what tangible benefits he could get from it.

Li Shilin thought for a while and asked, "What do your parents do?"

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Do you believe me when I say ordinary civil servants? Since you have read the newspaper, you should not ask this question." ”

Li Yuan didn't answer directly, but Li Shilin became more and more sure of his identity, and when he was thinking about what to say next, Li Yuan spoke.

"Mr. Li hasn't been immigrating for a long time, right?"

"It's been a couple of years. ”

"What kind of business?"

"This ...... ...... related to traditional Chinese culture"

"Oh, tell me?"

Li Yuan's tone and attitude were a little rude, but Li Shilin was not annoyed, but pondered, and vaguely shook out his deceptive theory.

Li Yuan listened patiently and did not interject, waiting for Li Shilin to say almost before he spoke.

"Anne mentioned to me a little bit before, I have to say, you can't play this deceptive thing in the United States. ”

As soon as Li Yuan's words came out, except for Li Shilin's mother, who was still indifferent, the rest of the people changed color.

Li Shilin's face was gloomy, and he didn't speak for a long time, and the air in the room seemed to be stagnant.

Li Yuan suddenly laughed and asked, "What's the matter? I can't get over it after I demolish my face?" He ignored Li Shilin's increasingly gloomy face, and continued: "Someone told me that there are only three kinds of people in this world...... The first type of person knows what he wants, the second type of person knows what he does not want, and the third type of person knows nothing at all...... The first type of people have a clear goal and can pay any price in order to get what they want; the second type of people have been avoiding risks, even if the opportunity is in front of them, they often regret missing it because they are too cautious; the third type of people can only passively accept what others give, they want. ”

When Li Yuan said this, he paused slightly and asked, "What kind of person are you?"

Li Shilin fell into deep thought, and after a long while, asked, "What do you want, and what do I get?"

"It doesn't matter what I want, as for what you can get...... Li Yuan said unhurriedly: "This occasion doesn't seem suitable for talking about this?"

……

The second half of lunch passed quietly in silence.

After lunch, Li Shilin invited Li Yuan to the study on the second floor.

Without anyone else present, Li Shilin once again raised the question just now.

Before answering this question, you have to keep one thing in mind. Li Yuan said: "What you want, I can give you, but I can only give it." In other words, if you get on my ship, you can only be a third-class person, and if you can't accept it, then there is no need to talk about it. ”

"...... in your house"

"What I have to do, the family is unconditionally supported. ”

Li Shilin was a little uncomfortable with Li Yuan's aggressiveness, and tried to regain the initiative, but he pretended to be disapproving and said: "I think life in the United States is very good......

Li Yuan interrupted him and said, "People's ** will grow with knowledge. Again, your set of things won't work in the United States. Americans often say that there is freedom of religious belief, but religion in the United States is also divided into three or six or nine categories, and Buddhism can only be regarded as a marginal religion in the United States, and it can never become the mainstream, not to mention your specious theories...... Think about it

You write books that don't sell, and no one signs up for lectures, and maybe the media will be interested in interviewing you, but the media attention will cool down quickly, and you may have a lot of money now, but what about ten years from now? Twenty years from now?"

Li Shilin argued: "I won't sit back and eat empty ......"

"Well, you're right. ”

Li Yuan nodded, and then changed the conversation.

"But, do you have business acumen? Moreover, investment is not enough to have a principal, you need a wide enough network, how long do you think it will take you to build a real network of contacts in this country that excludes Chinese?"

Li Yuan gave an example: "You probably don't know that within two days of my arrival in the United States, I made a business, without paying a penny, and got a joint venture company out of thin air, and I don't even need to worry about specific affairs......

Li Shilin was secretly disdainful, but he had to admit that he was very moved.

Disdain is aimed at Li Yuan's arrogance, in Li Shilin's opinion, Li Yuan has lost the aura attached to his family background, and he is not even a fart. However, the addition of "halo" is capital in itself.

Li Yuan felt that the blow was almost over, and began to throw the bait.

"I've checked the country in the past two days, and I know your situation very well, you were forced to escape, right?"

Li Shilin's body tensed violently, and then he remembered that this was the United States, and he relaxed again, and nodded at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan said: "You ask me what I can give you, and I can answer you now with a legal identity." ”

Li Shilin's words were tingling, and he asked, "Just an identity?"

"It's legal status. Li Yuan reminded.

Li Shilin was at first at a loss, then suddenly realized, his eyes widened, and he asked hesitantly: "What do you mean by legal status......"

Li Yuan smiled: "As you think." By legal status, I mean a status that will not be pursued no matter what you do. Of course, this is too absolute, and I am also conditional. ”

"On what terms?"

"The specific conditions, naturally someone will come to talk to you, I suggest you go back today to understand the meaning of 'white gloves', you are a smart person, naturally know what you can do and what you can't do......"

……

Don't talk about the conditions, just want to get away with it.

In order to make Li Shilin feel at ease, Li Yuan still "simply" put forward a few conditions.

First, Li Shilin needs to sell all his property in the United States, return to China as an investor, and donate his property to the state "free of charge."

Second, Li Shilin needs to change back to Chinese nationality, at least he and his immediate family must be Chinese.

Third, Li Shilin can have the status of a religious person, but he is not allowed to attend public religious activities and is not involved in politics.

……

There were more than ten "suggestions", and Li Shilin sometimes frowned and nodded when he heard it.

Although he didn't agree with these conditions in his heart, and even felt that they were very harsh, it also greatly increased his confidence in Li Yuan.

Isn't it weird? Not at all.

People are so cheap many times, when facing people whose status is higher than their own, the harshness of the other party has become a privilege.

Li Shilin thought to himself, he might as well climb the big tree of the Li family first, even if there is an accident in the future, presumably by then, his network of contacts will also be weaved, and the worst thing to go into exile abroad again is much better than the situation before.

Li Shilin even opened his brain to make up the hidden meaning behind the conditions.

For example, donating property is actually a left-handed to right-handed, and changing back to Chinese nationality is probably also for the convenience of doing things in the future......

Li Shilin looked at Li Yuan, thinking if he should talk to his daughter, no matter what means he takes, he must firmly grasp this kid......

Thinking like this, the big fox looked at the little fox and laughed tacitly.
