Chapter 1318 In the Silence
Chapter 1318
The call was short and didn't say too long. Zhao Shirong didn't say anything, chatted about some innocuous topics, similar to today's weather hahaha, and hung up.
Despite this, Li Hai could still see Zhao Shirong's inner unrest from her slightly trembling breath, her often interrupted rhythm, and her occasional abnormal silence. She's thinking about herself, isn't she? Or is it because you are under too much pressure and want to find someone to share it with? Or, is it both?
Lehi thought about it, but he always felt relieved. Then he found out that most of his worries were due to his ignorance. He didn't know anything about the situation at the top of the capital, the situation Zhao Shirong was in, and the role he played in it. It's a terrible feeling.
For a long time, Lehi lacked connections in the capital, so he tried to downplay this aspect of the matter, and handed it over to his father to deal with, and because of this, he could only stand in the security faction. Originally, this was not a problem, Lehi had made up his mind anyway, to be his local tyrant in Zhijiang, firmly control this territory, no matter how strong the raptor was, he would have to kneel when he touched him.
However, when the Wen brothers and sisters proposed a deal to change the court, Li Hai sensed that something was wrong. If the other side is not sufficiently sure that it will be able to settle the subsequent counterattack and accountability of the security faction, how can such a request be made? In other words, his position in the eyes of the security faction is definitely not as strong as he imagined!
Of course, this can also be understood, compared to the size of the world, Zhijiang is just a small corner, no matter how good the shape here is, it is not decisive. As long as you have the right chips, what can't you trade? Even if Lehi is unwilling, he is helpless, and even his supernatural powers are useless for this: if you want to use supernatural powers, you must have a clear target, right? Now it is not even clear to him who is trying to control his own destiny! All Lehi could do was to show his muscles to all parties by all means, and tell everyone that what needed the most respect in the territory of Zhijiang was his will!
So far, Lehi's idea has come to fruition fairly smoothly, and he has full confidence that he can take control of his own destiny. Now, as long as he doesn't nod his head, no one will be able to take away the fat of the Zhijiang Foundation. The brothers and sisters of the Wen family came to the door, which illustrated this point from another angle.
However, when it comes to Zhao Shirong, Zhao Shirong, who is far away in the capital, and considering that she still has a father who is waiting for the final treatment, this becomes extremely complicated. Li Hai asked himself, if Zhao Shirong was in a difficult situation because of his involvement, how could he bear to ignore it? That, after all, is his senior sister, and his fiancΓ©e who goes around and around, always passing by. How can the connection between the two be cut off so easily?
Lehi stared at the phone that had been hung up, mechanically opened the cigarette case in his hand, took out the cigar, cut one end, lit a special long match, baked it, and then held it in his mouth. He feels very bad, the behavior of the Wen brothers and sisters must be just one side, the current situation in Zhijiang is obviously closely related to the capital, echoing each other from afar, and Li Hai, no matter how powerful he is, no matter how strong he is in Zhijiang, if he can't see the overall situation, he can't know his position, he is likely to be strong in the end, but he is planted inexplicably, and he is planted with nothing!
He took a deep breath of the cigar, but found that there was no smell of smoke, and then Lehi burned his fingers, and it turned out that the match had been burned out, but he did not light the cigar. Got an oolong! Lehi smiled wryly, struck another match, lit a cigar, took a puff, threw it on the cigar saucer, grabbed his phone and left.
Yue Lan sat outside, and as soon as she saw Li Hai coming out, she immediately stood up: "Boss, are you going to the hospital?" I asked the driver to prepare. β
Li Hai waved his hand: "I don't go to the hospital, if someone looks for me, you can handle it yourself, and if you can't deal with it, you can say I'm not there." The people who really matter, will call my phone. I don't need to prepare a car, I'll go out for a walk by myself and call a taxi for me. β
Taxicab? Boss, is this going to play low-key? Yue Lan didn't ask, so she did it, she already had some experience for this boss who was younger than herself, and it was not enough to describe Li Hai's actions and thinking with willfulness, but fortunately, he basically didn't need anyone to wipe his ass.
Lehi went downstairs, and the taxi had already arrived. When he got into the car, he instructed the driver: "Go to Zhijiang University!" β
Theoretically, Lehi was still a student here, and he was only in the first semester of his senior year. It's just that he himself knows that he is gradually moving away from here. Especially when he thought that there were several beauties around him, all of whom had an inextricable relationship with this university, Lehi didn't know what it was like.
was so unhurried, until he walked downstairs to the girls' dormitory, Lehi ignored all the attention salutes thrown at him along the road, anyway, at most, people knew him, he didn't know people, did he need to spend so much thought? From Yue Lan's senior sister, Li Hai already knew what it meant for those students who were in their senior year and were about to look for a job.
Taking out his mobile phone, Lehi dialed a number, he was extremely familiar with this number, but he rarely took the initiative to dial it recently, the last time, was a month ago? I can't even remember!
The phone rang for a while, and inexplicably, Lehi felt as if he had seen the girl on the other end of the phone, the girl's tangled expression, maybe she was also waiting for the call, but when she really came, she found that she was still not prepared, right?
After five or six rings, the phone finally connected, but there was still no one inside to speak. The reason why he said that he did not speak seriously was because Lehi could hear that there must be someone on the other end, and he made some noises of unknown meaning, but they were not addressed to him.
Lehi waited patiently for a while, and the other end of the phone was still chattering, when suddenly a head poked out from upstairs, and a girl shouted: "Senior, wait a minute, the two of them haven't decided who will answer the phone!" Just shouted such a sentence, and the phone was suddenly chaotic and noisy.
Lehi sighed and hung up the phone first. What he called just now was Zhao Shiqian's phone, but Ji Weiwei must have been in the dormitory, as you can imagine, Zhao Shiqian answered the phone, but asked Ji Weiwei to speak, of course Ji Weiwei didn't want to, the phone was called to you, why did you ask me to answer? That's why there's a lot of muttering on the phone, but no one is talking seriously. As for the female classmate who shouted loudly, it was probably just a coaxing, right? Ahem.
Lehi stopped talking and waited downstairs with his hands in his hands. He is not alone, downstairs in the university women's dormitory, there are always wandering boys, and those directors who shoot youth films, as long as they set up cameras here, there are endless materials. It's just that with his image and dress, as well as that temperament, standing here naturally attracts a lot of attention, especially the boys, who are staring at Lehi with the eyes of a small rooster looking at a big rooster that has broken into the nest.
Finally, a girl came out of the building and walked towards Lehi. The boys looked at him in unison, mostly relieved, and then looked at Lehi with envy, jealousy, and hatred, and two of them looked at him with a dull gaze, as if he had suffered some great blow.
Li Hai glanced around, and smiled at Zhao Shiqian, who was bowing his head in front of him: "It seems that you are in a good market, I came over so casually, and there are two downstairs waiting for you." β
Zhao Shiqian was lowering her head, as if she was pleading guilty and didn't speak, how did she know that as soon as Li Hai came to such a sentence at the beginning, she was very surprised, and quickly looked around, and she understood, and immediately jumped over and hugged one of Li Hai's arms, and said loudly: "I told you, this girl has a famous flower, and she still doesn't give up!" β
Li Hai laughed and laughed, his originally complicated mood was so mixed up, but he was relaxed. He put his backhand around Zhao Shiqian's shoulder, regardless of Zhao Shiqian's expression as if he was taken aback, he smiled at the two boys, the two of them looked like dead ashes and directly fossilized, look at a competitor like Li Hai, it is incredibly strong, how can it be compared?
Li Hai just hugged Zhao Shiqian and walked out, he knew that in the dormitory building behind him, Ji Weiwei must also be paying attention to him and Zhao Shiqian, but he didn't look back and didn't speak.
After leaving the school gate, Zhao Shiqian came back to her senses, pushed Li Hai away, and glared at him: "What are you doing, you are so dignified, you don't make a phone call, and you suddenly ran over?" β
Lehi smiled: "I just made a phone call, and I didn't speak, how do you know I'm downstairs?" β
Zhao Shiqian was speechless for a while, and only said after a while: "You are a celebrity, as soon as you entered the school gate, someone gave me a message, okay!" Don't interrupt and talk about your business. β
Li Hai stood on the side of the road, looking at Zhao Shiqian's hair, which was a little messy by the wind, so he reached out and helped her brush her hair. Zhao Shiqian was a little uncomfortable, and her face was a little red, but it seemed that she was avoiding it more.
"I was going to make a phone call, but I just came here to see what you think. If you're not here, but at home, I probably won't call you again. You didn't disappoint me, though. β
Zhao Shiqian's body trembled. Lehi's words sound clueless, and outsiders may not be in the clouds at all. But she could understand it, because she had been haunted by this matter for the past few days, leaving home and running to school because of certain considerations.
She bit her lip, lowered her head, and said softly, "You, you know everything?" I didn't mean to hide it from you, I wanted to help my sister too, but I don't know what to say-"
Li Hai's hand had just finished brushing her hair, and when she looked down, he picked up Zhao Shiqian's delicate face. Looking at each other, Zhao Shiqian's eyes were quickly covered with a layer of fog.
Lehi looked at her and said only, "You look thin." Then, tears welled up in those eyes. End of Chapter 1318
