Li Shuo called a friend in the justice system and asked him to help with the investigation, and then returned home distraught.

He thought about it, and the people he had offended recently could only be counted on Shao Qun's head. Otherwise, with his character and personality, he would not be able to think of anyone to be bad with to such a point.

Shao Qun is Li Chengxiu's former boyfriend, but he really doesn't want to use the word "boyfriend" to describe that person, but he is a bastard who doesn't know what respect is at all because he has a little power. How could he give up Li Chengxiu to such a person.

He returned to his room, sat down at his desk, and looked blankly at the notebook closed in front of him, his heart heavy. He thought for a long time in the dark before he slowly opened his notebook and found out the information of Benhui's real estate project.

Benhui Real Estate is a company he worked with at the beginning of his career. The boss is a northerner, with a bold personality, a big brother-like character, who has a certain support for him, and the two once had a deep personal relationship.

But this person has a shortcoming, that is, he is too ambitious and pursues the rapid expansion of the company, and as a result, projects are blooming everywhere, resulting in a huge funding gap. He still remembers that late night several years ago, the boss approached him and offered to jointly make a beautiful account, which could be taken out of the bank and repaid as soon as the project was back up and running, without anyone knowing, and promised him a stake.

He refused without even thinking about it. He has never done a single thing against his will for money, and he is even more reluctant to touch any high-voltage wire.

So the boss gradually distanced himself from him.

But since their contracts have not expired, he still does the audit work at the end of the year. At that time, Ben Hui's accounts were far better than he knew, and they looked seamless, of course he doubted that no false accounts could be completely true, and as long as the audit was carefully checked, it would definitely be able to find loopholes. He didn't tell any of his subordinates, he stayed up all night for three nights, and found the evidence of forgery from the sea of numbers, so he went to question him.

He still can't forget the scene of the man about his father's age crying and begging him, promising him again and again. Friend, he finally relented, he held a fluke mentality, hoping that the project would really be able to repay the loan unknowingly after making a profit, so he didn't know what to do, according to the fake account, issued an audit report.

With this audit report, Ben Hui borrowed 1.2 billion yuan from the bank.

After the East Window incident, the boss didn't mention him for half a sentence, and there was no evidence against him, so he only contributed a few testimonies, lost some of his already small reputation, and fined a sum of money, which has nothing to do with this case. Except for the boss and him, no one knows what's going on.

But his heart was not plucked from it.

It was the biggest mistake he had ever made in his life, the most regrettable decision he had ever made. He regretted countless times why he didn't dissuade this qiē, and when he saw his friend take the risk, he played a role in fueling the trouble.

After that, he changed the name of the firm, approached two partners, and established a new firm.

This incident was a wake-up call hanging over his head forever, and it was also a scar in his heart, but this scar was violently uncovered by Shao Qun.

He didn't believe that Shao Qun had evidence in his hand that could prove him, even if this matter was revealed from the boss's mouth, it was empty. But as long as he has enough energy, he can make a big deal about it, at least it is enough to disturb him.

Shao Qun did this for Li Chengxiu......

Li Shuo looked at the huge group of materials and recalled the nights when he was looking for loopholes all night, and the contradictory mood of wanting to find out but being afraid of finding out made him sleep. His eyes gradually lost focus, and the information in his mind was chaotic, as if it was about to break through the cage of consciousness and explode completely.

Sure enough, anything that goes off the rails is bound to incur corresponding trouble. He did something against his will, in exchange for years of guilt, and did something that betrayed his principles, in exchange for malicious revenge. Money and fame can't shake him, but feelings have dragged him into the water again and again, and the state of life he hopes to achieve the most is to be alone without hurting others, so he tries to treat everything and everyone rationally, and the facts prove his idea even more, only if he is rational enough, can he avoid risks as much as possible and benefit others and himself.

He doesn't regret everything he did for Li Chengxiu, even if he didn't start from his favorite mood, it was his duty to help his friends, he didn't do it well, but he didn't do anything wrong.

It's just that he must better control himself and no longer be held hostage by feelings.

I didn't sleep all night, and when it was already normal working time in China, Li Shuo called many friends again to understand the situation. is similar to what Xiang Ning said, the authorities have filed a case and sent people to the office to investigate, but before they have obtained a search warrant, the lawyer detained the project materials and refused to give them, and they have been arguing all morning.

And the status quo is that as soon as he returns to China, he will be taken away for investigation immediately, and I don't know if he can find out anything, but if he doesn't return to China, this kind of small economic case will not be chased to the United States to arrest him, and he will always be safe.

In this case, of course, you can't go back. He didn't know how many pits Shao Qun had prepared for him to jump, if Shao Qun's energy was big enough to convince the boss to bite him with a reduced sentence, he would really be in trouble.

Li Shuo asked the lawyer to follow up, and at the same time hired a private detective to investigate the legal representative of Benhui Real Estate - that is, the nephew of the boss.

After that, he talked to Xiang Ning on the phone, and Xiang Ning didn't know how much he sighed: "You can tell me what's wrong now, right?" Forget it, I'm not stupid, the last time I found your office to fight, it was Shao Qun, right? ”

Li Shuo smiled bitterly: "Yes, most of it was done by him." ”

"My dear brother, I've known you for so many years, how can you get into trouble for the sake of feelings?"

"Brother Xiang, this is not just a matter of feelings, Shao Qun is a bully, after all, Cheng Xiu has worked in our firm, a diligent and kind honest person, can I be invisible?"

"You...... Ay...... So what now, you've been in the United States? ”

Li Shuo lowered his voice and soothed in that mellow and magnetic voice: "The soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, and anyone who does evil will definitely pay the price." "The mistakes he made in the first thought are now paying the price.

Shao Qun, I'm waiting to see your price.

Hung up the phone, Li Shuo enlightened himself for a long time, his mood was still a little uncalm, he thought about it, took out his mobile phone and dialed Li Chengxiu.

The voice on the other end of the phone was deliberately lowered: "Hey, Brother Li." ”

"Cheng Xiu, are you at work?" Li Shuo closed his eyes, imagining Li Chengxiu's current demeanor and movements, the more he thought about it, the more interesting he felt, but he couldn't laugh.

"Yes, you wait a minute."

After a while, the background sound on the phone was much quieter. Li Chengxiu said seriously: "Brother Li, when will I talk to your mother?" I'm ready. ”

Li Shuo smiled: "What have you prepared?" ”

Li Chengxiu said embarrassedly: "I practiced speaking." ”

Li Shuo suddenly felt warm in his heart, and he said gently: "The jet lag is always wrong, don't worry." ”

"yes, okay." Li Chengxiu asked hesitantly, "Brother Li, you don't seem to be very energetic, did you just wake up?" ”

"No, I ......" Li Shuo closed his eyes and pinched his eyebrows, his knife-like handsome face was obviously puffy and tired, what he wanted to say, but he was a little afraid to say it, because he felt that Li Chengxiu would probably refuse.

"Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

Li Shuo sighed lightly: "Cheng Xiu, I'm sorry...... I've had an accident here, and I can't go back for a while. ”

"You, Your Parents......"

"No, they're fine, it's my office that's wrong."

Li Chengxiu asked, "Very strict?" ”

Li Shuo snorted: "This matter is very complicated, I was framed." Now as soon as I return home, I will be investigated. One qiē happened too hastily, and for a while, the water was deep and shallow I couldn't try it, so I couldn't risk returning to China, can you understand that? ”

Li Chengxiu asked in a low voice, "...... Very strict zhòng...... Is it? ”

Li Shuo said in a deep voice: "I didn't want to tell you that you were worried, but considering your safety, I still have to let you be prepared." ”

"Huh?"

"This time, there is a chance that Shao Qun did it."

The other end of the line gasped.

Across the entire Pacific Ocean, Li Shuo seemed to be able to feel Li Chengxiu's trembling when he heard the name, which made him feel distressed. He said annoyedly: "The matter I am responsible for now has been closed for many years, and the interests of any third party are no longer involved. The person who framed me not only did not get benefits, but instead made trouble for himself, thinking about it, it could only be other interests that drove him to do this, and most of the things that targeted me like this were personal grudges. He paused, "When it comes to personal grievances, I only think of Shao Qun at the moment. ”

Li Chengxiu's voice was already a little crying: "Brother Li, is it really him?" ”

Li Shuo muttered: "Ten haves*." ”

"Then you, can't come back?"

"I'm afraid I won't be able to risk going back to China in the short term. If I stay in the U.S., the worst case scenario is that I will never be able to enter the country, but I will go back...... Not sure what to expect. ”

Li Chengxiu's breath was trembling.

Li Shuo said in a dumb voice: "Cheng Xiu, I'm worried about you now, if it's really Shao Qun's doing, he will stop me from returning to China in the first step, and he will go to you in the second step, I have asked the assistant to find you a house again, and you are also mentally prepared." ”

Li Chengxiu whispered: "Brother Li, I'm sorry ......"

"Cheng Xiu, you don't need to apologize, it's not your fault. From yesterday to now, I have thought a lot, thinking about my parents' age, and thinking about what happened this time...... Maybe this is the guidance of fate, maybe I should stay in the United States for a while. I have a question for you now, and the answer to that question is what I want to hear. ”

"What?"

"Would you like to come to the United States?"

There was silence on the other end of the line again.

Li Shuo covered his eyes with his hand, and it took him a lot of courage to ask this sentence, he knew very well in his heart that there was no particularly deep relationship between the two, and Li Chengxiu was more grateful to him, "I know that this is a big decision, and it is necessary to subvert your past life and leave your familiar environment, which is very difficult for any person." But as long as you want to, a qiē can be overcome. Language, environment, friends, work, all can be overcome, here I am, as long as you want to come. ”

"I ...... I do not know. ”

"I will ask the assistant to assist you in applying for a visa, during this time, you can think about it, even before you board the plane, you can regret it, but I really hope that one day I can hug you in the United States."

In order not to let his parents see the abnormality, Li Shuo took a shower and shaved carefully to make himself look better.

When he first returned to China, he tasted the hardships of starting a business, and he never asked his family for a penny or complained.

Packing himself up, he went downstairs to eat.

The first thing Mr. Li said when he saw him was: "You went to see Jin Xin yesterday, how is he?" ”

"It's good, it should be swollen in a few days." Li Shuo suddenly remembered that he hadn't ordered a meal for Zhao Jinxin yet.

"Oh, that's good, I hope there aren't any after-effects."

Li Shuo made a phone call to the nearest restaurant to Zhao Jinxin, asked them to deliver a lunch to Zhao Jinxin's house, and asked them to leave a note with the words: Take medicine on time.

During the meal, Mrs. Li asked when her son would return to China.

"Oh, there's no hurry." Li Shuo smiled, "Recently, there have been few things in the office, so I'll come back and accompany you more." ”

"That's great." Mrs. Li said happily, "Your Uncle Zhao bought a holiday villa in Qiandao Lake, and he has been inviting us to play, and this time you are back, let's go on vacation together." ”

Li Shuo's smile froze: "Together? Two together? ”

"Yes, Jin Xin usually doesn't like to go home, but now that his hand is injured, if he goes on vacation together, it will be convenient to take care of him."

"Uh......" Not only is he not in the mood for vacation at all, but he doesn't want to be in the same room with Zhao Jinxin.

"Your mom has already bought four dresses." Mr. Li squeezed his eyes at Li Shuo.

“…… Is it. Li Shuo reluctantly smiled, "Then I have to prepare the camera and take pictures of my mother's most beautiful appearance." He couldn't find a reason to refuse.

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "By the way, didn't you keep saying that you wanted me to talk to your boyfriend." ”

"Forget it, he's very shy, maybe I'll take him back to the United States next time, and you can have a good talk then." A touch of loneliness flashed in Li Shuo's eyes.

"It's okay, come to my son, try this sea cucumber."

Just after eating a few bites of food, the mobile phone rang twice, Li Shuo was afraid of missing an important call or text message, so he picked it up and saw that it was Zhao Jinxin who sent it: "You actually use the food in the restaurant to deal with me." It was accompanied by a crying emoji.

Li Shuo quickly replied: "Have you taken the medicine?" ”

"I don't want to eat, I don't want to take medicine, unless you come and accompany me."

"I have something to do today."

"If you don't come, send me a nude picture of you."

Li Shuo clasped his phone on the table and ignored him.

The phone began to ring one after the other with the sound of text messages.

Li Shuo's parents looked at him puzzled.

Li Shuo said embarrassedly: "My assistant is passing on the text." He hurriedly ate a few bites of food, grabbed his phone and went back to his room.

Flipping through the phone, Zhao Jinxin has sent several messages.

"Just slap the fart-stocks."

"Okay, chest."

"Waist or thighs, you can't compromise anymore."

"It's always okay to have your hands."

"Uncle Li, I like your hand so much, take a picture and send it to me, I promise to be very well-behaved today, okay."

Li Shuo couldn't cry or laugh, he had never seen such a shameless and playful person. He turned on the camera, took a picture of his hand and sent it over: "Do what you say, be obedient today." ”

Zhao Jinxin replied with a smiling expression and a sentence: "I will obediently think about this hand holding my baby all day long." ”

Li Shuo's face was embarrassed for a while, and he took a photo of himself comparing his middle finger and passed it over.

Zhao Jinxin is simply a vixen.

After a while, the mobile phone rang again, and Li Shuo saw that it was sent by Zhao Jinxin, hesitated again and again, but couldn't stop his curiosity and opened it.

"I know you're in trouble at home, and I'm willing to help you."

Li Shuo froze, and his fingers pressed the button quickly: "Don't investigate my business again!" ”

"Who told me to like you?"

Like......

How much does liking really matter?

Does Shao Qun like Li Chengxiu? should like it, but all he brought to Li Chengxiu was harm.

Does Lee Cheng so like herself? I should also like it, but I don't know how much gratitude and dependence I have injected into the water.

What about Zhao Jinxin? For people like Zhao Jinxin, the frequency of a sentence that he likes to use is estimated to catch up with the mantra, and it is useless except for good sound.

Li Shuo smiled bitterly and replied with a sternly worded message: "Don't meddle anymore. ”
