It wasn't until the next morning, when Ling Xiao's lawyer arrived, that Ling Xiao was able to get out of the police station. Things were a little more complicated than he thought, because after all, there was a shootout and there were casualties. Although Ling Xiao called the police and said that he was kidnapped, and Tiger was also a witness, this was a one-sided statement after all, and it was normal for the police to conduct a detailed investigation.

Vivian couldn't come out with Ling Xiao because of the unsolved case, and she had already been arrested by the police.

Walking out of the Wiegand Police Station, the rare winter sunlight sprinkled on his face, warm, but Ling Xiao did not feel a good mood because of this rare sunshine.

Tiger slid the car in front of Ling Xiao, but braked a little sluggishly, and the car had already slid in front of Ling Xiao before stopping. His feet were still not fully recovered, and he was in a very poor state, barely able to drive, but unable to drive well.

"Let me do it." Ling Xiao walked around to the side of the cab.

"Well, it's been too long since I've driven, I'm a stranger." Tiger said with some embarrassment, and then climbed onto the passenger seat with his hands propped up on the seat.

Ling Xiao got into the car, pulled the car into the driveway, and said as he walked forward, "Vivien has been arrested. ”

Tiger nodded, "I know, I just got a call from a police station, and a police officer told me about my sister's situation. Boss, you're going to save her, aren't you? ”

"Of course, does that need to be said?" Ling Xiao slammed the accelerator, "I heard Vivien mention a small construction company, do you know where it is?" We'll go over now. ”

"I know, it's called Green City, in London." After a pause, Tiger said, "What are we going to do with them?" ”

"The Green City reported that Vivien had stolen a valuable blueprint from them, along with a million pounds. ”

"Fuck! They fart! Tiger said angrily: "That's they framed my sister, Vivien didn't steal a million pounds from them at all, who would put a million pounds in the office?" Swindler! ”

"But the police believe it, and the judge will believe it in the future."

"Then I'll—" Tiger's eyes shone with a fierce light.

Ling Xiao interrupted him, "Don't worry, I said I would save her, and I will definitely do it, no matter how much it costs." ”

"What are you going to do?"

"I want to talk to the boss of the Green City, and he says Vivien stole a million from him, and I'll give him a million pounds. However, I have one premise, and that is to withdraw the lawsuit. Ling Xiao said.

Tiger was slightly stunned for a moment before he spoke up again: "A million pounds...... My sister and I ......."

Ling Xiao smiled: "Don't worry, I won't let you pay it back, and I won't deduct your salary." As I said, you follow me, as long as you think about me and do your job well, I will not treat you badly. Just that call you made last night, it's worth a million pounds. ”

Last night, if Tiger hadn't had an extra eye in advance and let Vivian carry the tracker on his body, how could Ling Xiao and Vivian be rescued by the police at that critical moment of life and death? If it dies in the hands of Mr. A, the more than two billion assets retained are equal to zero, so Ling Xiao said that the police call is worth one million pounds, and it is worth one million pounds.

Tiger smiled wryly. He can't understand the world of rich people, and he can't understand the thoughts of rich people, especially rich people like Ling Xiao.

Half a day's drive, Ling Xiao is already in London, the capital of the empire on which the sun never sets. As far as the size of Britain is concerned, it is not large enough for the area of a Yunnan province in China, and it is enough time to cross it in one day.

On the way here, Tiger had already asked his comrades to find the address and phone number of the boss of the Green City. As soon as she arrives in London, Ling Xiao makes a phone call to Cindy, and then calls her friend to make an appointment with Joseph, the boss of the Green City.

Friendship plays a big role in this situation. If Ling Xiao goes to Joseph in his own identity, the other party will not be decided. Moreover, even if it comes out, people may not be willing to talk about Vivian's affairs, but if it is in the face of Cindy, the situation will be different.

The meeting place is a very high-end restaurant, only Ling Xiao and Joseph. Ling Xiao told Tiger to wait in the car, and he took care of the matter himself.

Joseph was in his early forties, with a narrow horse face, a fat body, and slightly smaller eyes, giving him the first impression of a cunning and unscrupulous businessman.

When he saw Joseph, Ling Xiao secretly said in his heart: "This guy knows that he is a profiteer by looking at his face, no wonder he will frame Vivian for stealing a million pounds from him." ”

After meeting, Ling Xiao politely shook Joseph's hand, and then invited him to take a seat.

Looking at the bottle of burgundy on the table that had been opened and decanted, Joseph's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Burgundy, the world-famous French winery, is worth a lot of money every bottle, and it also has a reputation as the best red wine in the world. This level of red wine, the owner of a small company like him rarely has the opportunity to drink it.

Ling Xiao didn't directly explain his intentions, but beckoned the waiter of the restaurant to return, lightly ordered a French foie gras and a top-quality steak, and then asked Joseph to order.

Joseph was not polite and ordered lobster and abalone. He has made it clear - don't eat for nothing.

While waiting for the food to be served, Ling Xiao explained his intention, "Mr. Joseph, this is the first time we have met. It's thanks to Miss Cindy's introduction, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to make an appointment with you. ”

Still didn't explain the intention, and directly pulled out the name of Xiandi. In the United Kingdom, where football culture is strong, the goddess of Manchester United is very well-known, how can this Joseph not know the truth.

Sure enough, Joseph smiled, "Miss Cindy, we've had dinner together a few times, and we've had a pretty good conversation. Well, I'm still half a Manchester United fan. ”

It must be doubtful whether he had ever eaten with Cindy, but Ling Xiao didn't mind him bragging, on the contrary, he deliberately elevated his identity, "Mr. Joseph, I heard Miss Cindy's friend talk about you before this meeting, and Miss Cindy's friend said that you are a very friendly and personable person, so I can't wait to meet you." ”

"Mr. Ling, just say something directly, I don't believe you came to make friends with me on purpose." Joseph said with a smile, observing Ling Xiao's expression.

At this time, the waiter came over with a food truck, served the food and poured the wine, and then left.

Ling Xiao raised his glass, "A toast to our first meeting." ”

Joseph took a drink, and the delicious taste of Burgundy made him feel good, "Mr. Ling, you better say it, if you don't say it, I won't dare to enjoy these delicacies." ”

With short hands and a soft mouth, this Joseph is wary of Ling Xiao and very cunning.

Ling Xiao stopped playing with foreshadowing, and said: "Okay, Mr. Joseph, I'll just say it directly, the reason why I came to you is because of Vivian's case, do you remember that case?" ”

Joseph's face changed suddenly, and he said a little unhappily: "I don't have anything to talk about that case. ”

Ling Xiao was not in a hurry, and said calmly: "Mr. Joseph, you can listen to me first." My intention is simple, I will compensate you for the losses you suffered in that case, and you just need to drop the charges. ”

Joseph was slightly stunned, "She stole a very valuable blueprint from us, and a million pounds ......" He didn't say any more, and began to observe Ling Xiao's face.

Ling Xiao said: "One million pounds, drop the charges." ”

Joseph shook his head, "That's not good, the cash I stole is a million pounds, not to mention the very valuable blueprints." Besides, I took your money to drop the charges, which is an obstruction of justice. ”

Ling Xiao leaned forward a little and lowered his voice, "Mr. Joseph, we all know what that million pounds is all about. Your design drawings are worth £200,000 at most, and I'm willing to pay £1 million, which is enough to show my sincerity, isn't that enough? ”

A sneer appeared on the corner of Joseph's mouth, and then he shook his head again, "It's not enough, if you really want to solve the problem like this, three million pounds, you give me three million pounds, and I will drop the charge." ”

"Mr. Joseph, I came with sincerity and friendship, don't ......" Ling Xiao didn't say the word "inch inch".

Joseph didn't appreciate it at all, "Let's only talk about losses and compensation, sincerity and friendship, and we'll talk about it later." ”

Ling Xiao cut off a piece of beef with a knife, but instead of feeding the beef to his mouth, he suddenly stuck the knife into the table.

Burst! The knife instantly pierced the top of the dining table, leaving only a piece of the handle outside.

Joseph froze, his face blank.

This knife penetrated not only the thick dining table, but also Joseph's arrogance and greed.

Ling Xiao leaned a little closer to Joseph and said coldly: "Mr. Joseph, if you reject my sincerity and friendship, then you will gain a hostility. I guess you don't want an enemy like me, do you? ”

Joseph hadn't come to his senses yet.

Ling Xiao said again: "It's good to make a million pounds for nothing, sometimes you have to take it when you see it." Mr. Joseph, do you say yes? ”

Only then did Joseph come back to his senses, and he nodded mechanically, "Well, I thought about it carefully, and what Mr. Ling said is very reasonable, and one million pounds is enough to compensate me for my loss." So, when and how do you give me this money? ”

Ling Xiao showed a hint of a smile, "Give me your account." ”

Half an hour later, Ling Xiao walked out of the restaurant and got into a Jaguar sports car.

"Boss, how's it going?" Tiger said anxiously.

"That's it." Ling Xiao showed a hint of a smile, "That guy is insatiable, and he actually asked for three million pounds." But I told me the price, and it cost me a million and a thousand pounds. ”

Tiger glanced at Ling Xiao and said puzzledly: "What's the matter with the thousand pounds?" ”

"I lost a table in the restaurant." Ling Xiao said.

Tiger, "? ”

Ling Xiao patted Tiger on the shoulder, and then told him what had happened.

Tiger looked at Ling Xiao dumbfounded, "Boss, you...... Actually pierced a solid wood dining table with a dinner knife? ”

"Don't ask about this, anyway, Vivien will be out of the police station soon, and she won't have any more trouble in this regard in the future." Ling Xiao said.

"Thank you, boss......" Tiger was really touched in his heart, but he didn't know how to express it.

"Alright, let's go. You'll be back to the hotel alone later, and I'm going to see a friend. Ling Xiao said.

Tiger nodded, he didn't ask Ling Xiao what friend he was going to meet, but he could guess the name of that "friend" - Yelena.
