It turned out that Chen Zhilong had made a lot of investment out of nowhere, and I heard that it seemed to be one or two hundred million, which was almost worth the total market value of his company.

And Chen Zhilong is also ready to take this opportunity to expand the scale of the company, which can be described as ambitious recently.

This suddenly cast a shadow over Li Chen's acquisition plan. If you want to force the acquisition, first, it may not be possible, and second, even if it can be done, I am afraid that the price paid will be greater than beforehand.

Li Chen fell silent.

While paying more isn't a problem for him, there's a question of whether it's worth it or not.

After all, with so much money, he could have built a similar company from scratch on his own!

"Is this going to give up?"

Li Chen was a little bored, although there were competitive factors in the acquisition of Zhilong Technology, but Li Chen wanted to take this opportunity to broaden his career, and also took advantage of this to cooperate closely with Wu Liang.

But the current situation is obviously a dead knot, how can it be untied?

"Hey, what the hell do you mean?"

Wu Liang couldn't hear Li Chen's words for a long time and asked.

After being silent for a while, Li Chen said, "You let me think about it." ”

Wu Liang knew that this matter was a little unexpected, so he didn't say anything, and hung up the phone after a sigh.

Li Chen lay on his back on the sofa, staring at the roof and thinking about it.

Do you still want to persevere? But if you persist, even if you can win it in the end, the cost will be too great. In addition, the key is that Chen Zhilong is cheaper, it is not worth it.

Can you give up? Li Chen was a little unwilling.

But at this moment, a strange phone call came in, which made Li Chen stunned for a moment.

Originally. It was Zong Xiaoyi who called.

Li Chen never thought that she would call herself, although she happened to save her sister last night. But I didn't leave her own phone! I don't know how she found her number?

Li Chen was not too impressed by this girl. I only remember that I used to be silent, study very well, and be a very simple and beautiful girl.

But after this party, especially knowing that she would marry a playboy like Chen Zhilong for money, Li Chen's impression of her plummeted.

So Li Chen subconsciously, he was a little lazy to pay attention to her.

Zong Xiaoyi got straight to the point and said: "Li Chen, thank you for saving my sister, do you have time at noon?" I want to treat you to a meal! ”

"No need!"

Li Chen refused: "You don't have to take that to heart, anyone will do that!" ”

seemed to feel that Li Chen's attitude towards him was a little light. Zong Xiaoyi suddenly said: "Li Chen, maybe this matter is nothing to you, but for me, it is a great kindness, and besides, I may also have to leave, go to a far away place, and I may never come back in the future." So... I hope you can promise me this time... All right? ”

"Huh?"

The words were said without beginning or end, and the tone seemed to be a little mournful. Li Chen couldn't help but feel his heart move.

"What's wrong with you? Where are you going? ”

Li Chen asked puzzled.

"At 12 o'clock, see you on the 8th floor of XXX Hotel 'Cloud Sky Pavilion', if you come, you will arrive on time. If you don't come, forget it! ”

Zong Xiaoyi did not answer Li Chen, but quickly said the time and place. With that, she hung up the phone.

Li Chen pondered for a while. Finally, I looked at my watch. I simply got up, packed up, and went out.

Anyway, after all, classmates, I can't be too cold in other people's hearts, besides, the current situation of Chen Zhilong also needs to be touched, and as his wife, Zong Xiaoyi is a good understanding object, Li Chen also hopes to have the opportunity to find out some news.

At about 11:50, Li Chen arrived outside the designated hotel, parked the car, and looked around, although this place is also in the city, it seems to be quiet, because there are many trees, the environment also seems quite quiet.

Looking at the parking spaces, there are a lot of luxury cars, and it seems to be an old hotel.

Li Chen didn't rush in, but went to the tea bar in the hall by himself and sat down, pretending to flip through his mobile phone, but in fact, he released his thoughts, and checked the eighth floor first, but found nothing unusual.

In the room, only Zong Xiaoyi was silently drinking tea, and it didn't look like a trap!

However, Li Chen was not in a hurry, but waited for a while, making sure that there was really no problem, and when the time was about to come, he got up slowly, got on the elevator, and knocked on the door!

Entering the room, Li Chen and Zong Xiaoyi sat opposite each other. I ordered a few dishes at random.

glanced at Zong Xiaoyi, she didn't deliberately dress up today, she looked very simple, but she was more delicate, which made Li Chen vaguely feel like she was a student.

"Is your sister alright?"

Li Chen took a sip of tea and asked casually. Although he didn't pay much attention to it last night, he also heard some related discussions, that is, the girl should have jumped into the river by herself.

And a young girl can't think of committing suicide, then she must have encountered a great difficulty, presumably she, as a sister, should be more or less clear.

Sure enough, Zong Xiaoyi's expression suddenly became a little unnatural, and the keen Li Chen even saw a flash of anger in his eyes!

Although it disappeared quickly, it also made Li Chen more convinced that she must know something.

However, this is privacy, Li Chen didn't want to and was not interested in delving into it, so he took the initiative to divert the topic: "By the way, you said that you were going to a far place, where to go?" Emmigrated? ”

I thought that this matter was relatively easy, but who expected that after hearing this, the expression on Zong Xiaoyi's face actually became even darker.

Li Chen frowned.

To be honest, I felt a little unhappy in my heart.

After all, you invited me to dinner, why do you look preoccupied now? Do you want me to guess your heart, to be your confidant brother?

I'm sorry! I don't have that interest, I don't have that time!

So as soon as Li Chen was silent, he was ready to say goodbye. Anyway, I'm here, and the face is for you, and that's all I can do.

But just as Li Chen was about to speak, Zong Xiaoyi suddenly spoke.

"Li Chen, thank you for saving my sister!"

Li Chen waved his hand: "You are too polite." ”

"No, I know, you may think it's nothing to you, but you know what, because I only have one relative like my sister, and if she has three longs and two shorts, then I won't be able to live......"

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Li Chengang's soothing brows furrowed again.

Zong Xiaoyi continued to take care of himself: "You don't know, my parents passed away when I was a junior in college, and before they died, they took me and my sister by the hand and told us to depend on each other in the future. And I secretly made up my mind at that time that I must take good care of my sister and not let her suffer in the slightest. But now... Alas......"

Hearing that there was something in the other party's words, although Li Chen wanted to know the inside story, he knew how to measure and didn't rashly ask anything. (To be continued......)
