Chapter Seventy-Three: Emotional Liars
S City, Legal Department of Tianyi Real Estate Company.
Zhao Yu was finally able to sit down and take a sip of coffee. On this day, he has been going back and forth between his office and Fan Chengguang's. Fan Chengguang is really moving, he wants to use unknown methods to set up Tianyi real estate and strip himself out. Although he knew that Fan Chengguang was unwilling to be controlled by shareholders, he couldn't think of the reason why he was in a hurry to withdraw his salary.
He turned on his phone and looked at Fan Chengxi's message. "Call me back when you're free." Suddenly remembered, and hurriedly dialed a phone number.
"What's wrong, Xiaoxi." Zhao Yu asked.
"I just wanted to ask you to borrow some money. You know my mom sends me pocket money every month, I don't have enough money. β
"Yes, Xiaoxi, but I want to know what you want to use, you can't tell Auntie, you want to borrow it from me?"
"Oh, that's right, I'm taking arts and crafts as an elective, and you know my mom doesn't want me to do this, so I don't dare ask her. But I may not have enough money to learn to buy raw materials or something at once. β
"Yes. How much do you want? β
"One hundred thousand. I'll pay you back when I save up. Can you please not tell my two brothers, they will sue SΓΉ Mommy. β
"Okay. If I don't say it, you don't have to rush to pay it back. Send me the card number. β
Although it is a little strange, Zhao Yu has a little sweetness in his heart, Fan Chengxi wants money, it is not a very simple thing, she is actually willing to ask herself to borrow, does this mean that she regards herself as a close person.
After pressing the phone, Fan Chengxi received Zhao Yu's remittance after a while, she carefully looked at the balance on her card, and showed a reassuring smile. The eldest brother is 300,000, the second brother is 300,000, Zhao Yu is 100,000, plus the annual pocket money that he asked his mother to beg, it adds up to just 1 million, almost more than 100,000 pounds. She put the card in her bag and walked out the door in a happy mood.
Li Zhiqi sat in the cafΓ© with a sad face. Seeing Fan Chengxi coming, he was not excited, he only glanced at her lightly, and stopped looking.
Fan Chengxi pushed the card in front of him and looked at him expectantly.
"Xiaoxi. I know your family is rich, but I won't ask for your money. Although my family is not as rich as your father in this K city, it is also a dignified official. β
Fan Chengxi didn't know how to comfort this boy who suddenly fell into adversity, for fear that the comfort was wrong. Instead, he hurt him, and timidly took the card back.
Li Zhiqi's face seemed to soften, looked at Fan Chengxi, and asked, "Is the plane ticket set?" β
"The return ticket was booked very early. If you can accept my funding, I would like to change my booking and wait for you to go with you. β
"Now the situation in my family, what else do I talk about? Dad doesn't know when he will be able to be Zhaoxue, and Mom is not in good health. The main thing ......" Li Zhiqi's eyes glanced at Fan Chengxi's bag.
"You've got a year to graduate, so it's a shame not to finish it."
"Hmm!" Li Zhiqi lowered his head, as if he was sad. A while. His phone rang, and the look on his face looked nervous. After hanging up the phone, I got up to leave.
"What's wrong, Zhiqi?" Fan Chengxi hurriedly asked.
"My mom is hospitalized, I'm going to go and have a look." He frantically picked up his bag and walked out.
"I'll send you, don't worry." Fan Chengxi hurriedly followed.
When he arrived at the hospital, Li Zhiqi's two friends were there, and Fan Chengxi was dragged by them to the intensive care unit. Because they couldn't get in, they only looked out the glass window for a while. Fan Chengxi didn't know which one was Li Zhiqi's mother. can only accompany him quietly.
Li Zhiqi sat slumped on the bench with a gloomy expression. A friend with a flat head, Fan Chengxi remembered that his name was Xiaojian, and he said sadly: "The doctor said just now that the money hasn't been paid yet?" I can't find any of your relatives. Fortunately, Auntie is fine. Zhiqi, don't worry too much. β
"Who will help them at this time?"
"Think about how many benefits you've had before. Now, alas! β
Everyone said a few words, and they all took out the money from their bags and stuffed it into Li Zhiqi's hand, Li Zhiqi refused to ask for it, and was annoyed. I still took it under everyone's persuasion.
Fan Chengxi also took the opportunity to hand him the card. Didn't say anything, just looked at him sincerely. Li Zhiqi was stunned and kept shaking his head.
"You and I lent it to you, and I funded you to complete your studies. In a few days, we will go to school together in the UK. Fan Chengxi said gently, he seemed to see a light on her back, her eyes were red, and she choked up and said, "You are really an angel, Xiaoxi." I must arrange for my mother to go with you to England to complete my studies. β
Fan Chengxi nodded, sat down and took his hand to comfort him. After a while, because Li Zhiqi wanted to stay and take care of his mother, Xiaojian saw that he was depressed, so he took his card and accompanied Fan Chengxi to the bank.
Fan Chengze went to Anhui to continue the follow-up work of the "Rongfu" project a year ago. The construction of this real estate project has been suspended due to excessive advances. The other side hopes to enter into peace talks and agree on how to proceed. Fan Chengze's opinion is one part after another, and Fan Chengguang's opinion is the opposite. Unable to reach a consensus, Fan Weiming decided to send Fan Chengguang and another deputy general manager to negotiate.
Because of Fan Chengze's business trip, Su Xiaoyan's heart settled down. The business of Yan Studio has plummeted, and due to the social and economic downturn, after taking two jobs to shoot products this month, there is nothing to do. And because the lawsuit with Ke Hui is about to start, Su Xiaoyan is ready to respond to the lawsuit, and he has no intention of the studio. Du Xiaomei often goes out to pick up work, but because Su Xiaoyan is unwilling to shoot something, the two of them are still a little unhappy.
"Sister Su, did you find a rich boyfriend and don't want to take care of this studio?" Du Xiaomei asked directly.
Su Xiaoyan was not annoyed, and said, "You know that these things were taken by Ke Hui before, but I really won't." β
"So what do you say? Waiting to close? Du Xiaomei asked.
"Cut a typesetter and hire a photographer." Su Xiaoyan said: "And you, use this time to continue to learn typesetting, and give you a dual-job salary when you are busy." Du Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, nodded hurriedly, and went to release the recruitment information.
An unfamiliar number, Su Xiaoyan picked it up.
"Hello, who is it?"
"Sister Xiaoyan? I'm Xiaoxi. Can you come out for a moment? I'm in the cafΓ© next to your studio. β
Fan Chengxi frowned slightly, his face looked a little flustered, and he hurriedly stood up when he saw Su Xiaoyan.
"What's wrong, Xiaoxi?"
"I haven't been in K since high school, and I know very few people. If I think about it, I can only ask you to help me. Find me a friend. Fan Chengxi said something to Su Xiaoyan.
met Li Zhiqi on the pai duì that Zhao Yu brought him. The two fell in love and are preparing to go back to school in the UK together. Li Zhiqi's father is a high-ranking official in a prefecture-level city, who knows that he was framed for corruption and taken away, and the family's money was frozen. My mother was hospitalized again because of agitation. Li Zhiqi's tuition for a year was not settled, so she and a few friends helped to make it up, and now she wanted to help him book a ticket back to the UK together, but found that his phone was turned off. Now everyone can't find Li Zhiqi, worried about whether he will also be taken to investigate by some department.
Su Xiaoyan listened to her somewhat messy narration. She frowned and bit her lip, the most unconscious action she did in her dilemma. Her first instinct was that Xiaoxi had been deceived. Another voice told herself, maybe it was true, and she couldn't casually deny her kindness because she was too sophisticated.
"You think about where you might find him, and we'll look for it together." Su Xiaoyan took out a notebook from his bag and wrote down a few general places and key people. Her composure calmed Fan Chengxi as well. Fan Chengxi always felt that after finishing speaking, Su Xiaoyan would ask himself some questions. But she didn't have any questions, just helped her solve them. Her crisp and empathetic nature made her sad heart much more comfortable.
Su Xiaoyan took Fan Chengxi to the hospital first.
"The patients in the intensive care unit have changed several batches. What is the name of the patient you are looking for? β
"I only know that her son's name is Li Zhiqi, and I don't know if there is such a family."
"I'll flip it through for you."
Su Xiaoyan contacted an acquaintance and helped to flip through the record book, but there was no name of Li Zhiqi.
Fan Chengxi said: "Maybe it was sent by other relatives at that time, and Zhiqi did not sign. Alas, it is not known which one is her mother. β
Su Xiaoyan comforted: "Then let's go somewhere else to find it." β
When I went to Li Zhiqi's house again, the door was closed. Su Xiaoyan looked at this villa coldly, is this really this boy's home? If it's as he says. My father is a high-ranking official, so the official must dare to live in such a good place. She looked at Fan Chengxi, who looked worried, and felt very uncomfortable. went to the bar to look for Xiaojian, but no one was found. Looked around. Fan Chengxi looked even more worried.
Most of the day has passed, Li Zhiqi seems to have evaporated, and the acquaintances around him also say that it is different, and there are also people who can't find anyone.
"There's no way, let's find Zhao Yu. He took you to Pai duì and met Li Zhiqi. There should be more ways to find him than we do. Su Xiaoyan said.
Fan Chengxi didn't answer immediately, looking a little unhappy. Su Xiaoyan asked again: "You call him." Asking is also an option. β
"Okay." Fan Chengxi dialed the phone and tried to explain the matter in the shortest possible words, saying that he couldn't find Li Zhiqi, could he ask him to help find it, and didn't mention anything about the money. Zhao Yu asked Fan Chengxi to hand over the phone to Su Xiaoyan.
"What do you think about this?" Zhao Yu's unusually low voice made Su Xiaoyan's heart slightly stunned.
"The top priority is to find this Li Zhiqi first." Su Xiaoyan's irrefutable tone made Zhao Yu no longer ask Su Xiaoyan, and hummed on the other end of the phone, saying, "I'll be there in about 1 hour." He hung up.
Su Xiaoyan took Fan Chengxi back to Yan's studio to wait for Zhao Yu. When he was an hour, Zhao Yu almost broke into the studio, and as soon as he came in, he looked for Fan Chengxi. Zhao Yu, whom Su Xiaoyan knew, had never been in a hurry, and it was the first time she saw him anxious.
Zhao Yu lowered his body and pulled Fan Chengxi up, looked at it carefully several times, there seemed to be a nameless fire in his eyes, and he stammered a little when he spoke, and asked, "You, you, how are you?" β
"Me? I'm fine. It's Li Zhiqi who can't find it. Fan Chengxi was frightened by Zhao Yu's nervousness, and looked at Su Xiaoyan not far away like a help.
"Xiaoxi, you sue me, how good are you and Li Zhiqi?"
"What?" Fan Chengxi's face was slightly hot, and he asked embarrassedly, "What do you mean?" β
Su Xiaoyan hurriedly ran over, pulled Zhao Yu away, and poured him a glass of water. "How did you get here so fast?"
Su Xiaoyan's voice made Zhao Yuhui feel a little more reasonable, "You were on your way here when you called me." He said perfunctorily and looked at Fan Chengxi again.
"Who the hell is that Li Zhiqi?" Su Xiaoyan's question made Zhao Yu's eyes have a trace of affirmation.
"It's a liar." Zhao Yu said fiercely and glanced at Fan Chengxi. Su Xiaoyan hurriedly glanced at him.
Fan Chengxi was stunned, looked at Zhao Yu incredulously, and said, "What did you say?" What is he? β
Zhao Yuhui's expression was as usual, the anxiety in his eyes slowly faded, and his tone of voice became much calmer: "Xiaoxi, there is no such person as Li Zhiqi in the world at all. The Li Zhiqi you know is a habitual liar! β
Fan Chengxi stared at him motionlessly with a pair of big eyes, waiting for him to finish.
"Li Zhiqi is 28 years old, and he has been cheating for 6 or 7 years, specializing in deceiving women. He is especially good at deceiving female college students and returnees who study abroad. With his good English skills and early study abroad experience, he has won the trust of others. Defrauding women of money on the grounds of studying, family illness, or getting married, buying a house, or buying a car. β
"It can't be. He said he was only 23 years old. Fan Chengxi still stayed at the first sentence that Zhao Yu said.
"Yes, if you grow tender, you have capital." Zhao Yu sarcastically. "Don't believe me?"
Fan Chengxi nodded and said, "I don't believe it." β
"Zhao Yu, have you verified what you said?" Su Xiaoyan also felt incredible.
"Originally, I was suspicious and asked my friends to investigate. It's nothing more than that he didn't study in the UK at all, and I think it's just a man who deliberately says himself better in order to pursue girls, and he doesn't want to expose it. When Xiaoxi returns to the UK, she will naturally understand. Unexpectedly, he is still a habitual liar. β
"How do you know he's cheating?"
"Car accident! Come, Xiaoxi doesn't give up, I'll show you. Zhao Yu took out his phone and opened a page.
"The man in the car accident was exposed, and 17 girlfriends came to visit"
"I have more than 20 girlfriends at the same time, and the fraud amount is as high as one million, and the most scumbag in China is released"
Fan Chengxi gasped.
"If it weren't for the fact that your brother's company was so busy that I really didn't have time to track it down, I wouldn't have known until today. Xiaoxi, don't look for him, he's a liar. If he hadn't been too rampant, he drove one of the girls' cars to play, and was recognized by another girl on the way, and he had a car accident because he was nervous. β
"Oh." Fan Chengxi's stupid appearance made Su Xiaoyan a little worried, she put down her mobile phone, walked over and hugged her. Zhao Yu suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are you together?" Anyone could hear the sadness and panic in his words.
"What? No no. Fan Chengxi waved his hand. I just borrowed some money from him. β
"Oh, you asked me to borrow 100,000, and I gave it to him." Zhao Yu was relieved.
Fan Chengxi shook his head and nodded again.
"How much money did you get cheated out of by him?"
"A million."
"What?" Su Xiaoyan didn't control it on the side and shouted. Fan Chengxi glanced at her a little embarrassed. Fan Chengxi's worries all day long were not because he was worried that the money would disappear, but more because he was worried that the boy would have an accident.
Su Xiaoyan sighed in her heart, she is really a girl who doesn't know the sufferings of the world, one million, some people can't earn it in a lifetime, this is also the money earned by her family, she can give it to strangers casually.
Zhao Yu seemed to see Su Xiaoyan's thoughts, looked at Fan Chengxi fixedly, shook his head helplessly, and said mockingly: "With so much money, you really love him!" (To be continued.) )
