"Hey, hey, hey...... You're very cunning, but you're thinking too much, this matter is not a union thing, it's Roman's private matter, I want you to do him a favor, a small favor......" Yuri saw Hong Tao's expression, and couldn't help but be happy, and then stretched out his huge palm, and made the same movement as Sergei, facing his index finger and thumb, and then leaving a small gap in the middle, in order to emphasize how worthless and easy this favor is.

"I can't promise you now, you have to tell me what the matter is, and then I will make a decision. Hong Tao had already suffered the loss of this gesture, and if he didn't make this gesture, it might not arouse Hong Tao's vigilance.

"I want you to bring Vanessa back and bring her to Roman's house, but don't let Elisa know! He has a very serious diabetic condition and his health is getting worse and worse, and I don't want him to really not see his granddaughter for the rest of his life. But I can't do anything about it, but you have the ability, you can approach Eliza, and then gain her trust, and you can bring Vanessa to Roman's house under various pretenses. If you agree to my terms, then I will assist Sergei in convincing the rest of the union, and you may not know that the union is not Roman's alone, and that there is still a need to vote on the issue of repetition. Sergei did not have many high-level supporters in the union, he had been here for too short a time, and his background was not too popular. Yuri offered a quid pro quo that Hong Tao didn't expect, and the chips he offered were impressive.

（）

“…… Your deal looks impressive, but it's actually a blank check. Even if I agree, it won't be possible to complete the task in a short time. After all, Eliza is not a little girl, and there is not much friendship between the two of us. There's no way she's going to let me take Vanessa alone, it's going to take a process. And Sergey could not wait a year or two. In that case, the effect of the investment will be weakened, and it is a question of whether my family will invest in him or not. Hong Tao is not a hairy young man, and he will not be fooled by the moving words on the surface, and he is quick to point out a flaw in the deal.

"I don't need you to bring Vanessa back right away, I just need you to agree to this condition and work in the right direction. As for Sergei's side, I will soon help him to convince a few important people, maybe this month. Maybe next month, this matter will be approved by the union. Well, my sincerity is no longer a blank promise, is it?" Yuri was clearly not a whim, he had thought every step through and it sounded very feasible.

"Roman came to let you and me mention it?Why didn't he tell me himself, wouldn't that be more convenient?" Hong Tao was actually planning to agree to Yuri's deal, it was a win-win situation, no matter what, it didn't hurt him.

"Nope. Roman doesn't know, and you can't let him know. Although he misses his granddaughter, he is also a stubborn temper if he is willing to put down his posture and apologize to Eliza and beg her for forgiveness. Eliza wouldn't be so angry and take Vanessa away from him. You should understand that as a strict father, it is sometimes difficult for him to put his head down. It made him worse than killing him. Yuri seems to be well aware of Roman's thoughts, from this point of view. He is more like a junior of Roman than an assistant or a driver, and it seems that the relationship between them is not as simple as Hong Tao seems.

"Okay. I'm willing to try, tell me the truth, there is no inheritance dispute here, right?Or Roman has an heir to the throne like an older brother and nephew? I don't want to leave my life here because of your family's affairs, although the mountains and rivers are beautiful here, but I haven't lived enough, once I find out that there are these situations, then I will quit immediately!" Hong Tao was just about to agree, but suddenly thought of a very important question, isn't it played like this in many movies, the other heirs in the family are desperately trying to get rid of the first heir, who is unlucky.

"I promise, no, I can swear that he has been the sole heir of the family since Roman's father's generation. The status in the union has nothing to do with family succession, and if you find any disputes about inheritance, you can withdraw immediately. Yuri was very sure of his last doubt.

Now tell me about Eliza's preferences, personality, and other qualities, and tell me everything you know, so that I can gain her trust more smoothly. Hong Tao felt that there was nothing more to ask, so he high-fived Yuri and began to ask about the details he cared about.

She likes sports, in addition to ice hockey, she is good at skiing, sailing, and diving, but after Alyosha's accident, she moved outside to live, and has been taking care of Vanessa all these years, and rarely touches these things again. By the way, I have to warn you that you can approach Eliza by any means you can, but you can't hurt her and Vanessa, and don't sleep with Eliza. If Roman finds out, you'll soon be a pile of manure, Eliza is a charming woman, but you have to control your lower body, this is my advice to you. Yuri simply pulled over to the side of the road and began to tell Hong Tao what he knew about Elisa, and gave Hong Tao a stern warning, which was not a joke at all.

According to Yuri, Eliza was born into a family of diplomats and attended a girls' school from an early age and received a good education. She has a high athletic talent, and before marrying Alyosha, she was selected for the Canadian women's national ice hockey team, and she and Alyosha met because they played ice hockey. After Alyosha died, she moved back to her parents' old house and got a job as an ice hockey coach at the San Rika Academy, living on Alyosha's bonuses and her own salary. Her parents were both killed in an avalanche while skiing in Switzerland before she married Alyosha, so Alyosha and Vanessa are her last relatives, which is one of the reasons why she hates Roman so much.

After leaving Roman, Eliza did not allow Roman to get close to her and Vanessa, and even said that if she found out that Roman had any bad intentions for Vanessa, she would immediately leave Canada with her daughter to live in a foreign country. So Roman didn't dare to act rashly, but sent Yuri to visit the mother and son at home regularly, just to see, Eliza didn't accept a penny, not even Christmas gifts, and didn't tell Sù Vanessa that she still had a grandfather.

"This is amazing! Take me to her house to see, I'll recognize the door!" Hong Tao listened to Yuri's introduction, and already had a preliminary plan in his heart.

"She actually lives very close to you, about a kilometer away, in the residential area west of your college. Don't tell anyone about this, most people don't know that Roman has a granddaughter, and they don't know that she still lives in Toronto, and if they are in any danger because of you, then you will also have to become fertilizer, but the person who does it will become me!" Yuri restarted the car, then pinched Hong Tao's left arm, and used a little force.

“…… When you threaten people, apart from chopping your fingers to turn them into fertilizer, is there anything more terrifying that sounds? For example, you use a knife to cut off the flesh from the human body little by little, just like the shredded meat we eat at night. But be careful not to break the big blood vessels, let this person watch himself slowly turn into a skeleton, but he can't die......" Hong Tao grinned not to cry out in pain, and kept talking nonsense in his mouth, so as to distract himself, because it really hurts, Yuri's hand is like a big pair of pliers, or the hydraulic kind.

"If you say one more word, I'll throw you out of the car and let you walk home by yourself!" Yuri was a little really angry when he thought about what he ate at night and what it had to do with human flesh.

Eliza's house is very ordinary, not as high-end as Nina's house, it is the kind of townhouse, there is no garden in front of the door, there is a small yard behind the house, and there is not even a garage. Now the lights are off in her room, it's dark, and judging by the time she and Vanessa may have slept. Probably remembering the location, Hong Tao asked Yuri to send him back to Sergei's house, and Sergei and Ratz had not slept yet, it seemed that they were waiting for Hong Tao.

"Yuri sent you back?Why is it so late?" Whether it was true or false, and no matter what the purpose was, Sergei was really concerned about Hong Tao's safety, and as soon as he heard the sound of the car, he appeared at the door.

"Don't worry, I just went to Roman's house and talked to him, and as Ratz said, he was just an old man who had lost his son and had no ill will towards me. And I explained to him that he wouldn't train me anymore when I joined the academy's hockey team. Hong Tao was not idle after entering the house, explaining his movements while wandering around Sergei's house.

"What are you looking for? That's my wall hanging...... Are you going to demolish the house?" Sergei watched Hong Tao wander around the house, pulling out a few bamboo sticks from the bamboo wall hangings he hung on the wall, and then running to Nina's house, bringing back the watercolor and white paper that Oya had drawn, and finding a fishing wheel from the basement storage room, not knowing what he was going to do.

"I'm going to go to bed first, and tomorrow I'm going to make a big toy for Oski and Oya to see what materials are missing. Don't worry, I'll buy you a better wall hanging, good night. Hong Tao put all the things on the table, checked them all the same, and then clapped his hands with satisfaction, threw down the stunned Sergei and Lats, and went upstairs first.
