The sky was dark and oppressive, dark clouds covered the blue overhead, the daylight was blocked, and a heavy rain was ready to start.

The weather in New York is exactly the same as in China.

Li Shaolin drafted an application copy, and the few pieces of printing paper in his hand turned out to be heavier than a thousand pounds of heavy burden, and all of a sudden, it smashed on his heart, making Li Shaolin seem to be strangled by his neck for a while, and he couldn't breathe.

Li Liheng took out a box of cigarettes from the drawer, the cigarette case was opened, he took one out of it, put it to his lips a little awkwardly, bit it, picked up a lighter and lit it, took a puff, and then stretched out his long arm and handed it to Li Shaolin.

Li Shaolin glanced at the cigarette and looked at the second brother again, "When did you start smoking?" You don't know how much smoking hurts your body?! ”

Blame, even more distressed.

Li Liheng smiled at his eldest brother a little childishly, the bitter taste, mixed with the smoke, stirred up the aftermath in his eyes, "Occasionally, I don't have a smoking addiction, I can quit if I want to." ”

"Nonsense, it's so easy for you to quit smoking."

Li Shaolin knew that his second brother was under a lot of pressure, in this office, how much pressure he had borne alone that he couldn't know, and he couldn't imagine how his second brother survived many late nights, if it weren't for the subtle anesthesia of tobacco, the second brother might really collapse, right?

distressed, Li Shaolin's distress for his son is like an arrow piercing the heart, the Li family is bankrupt, and the sadness of him and Tingchen must not be as good as the second brother.

pinched the cigarette between his fingers, and Li Shaolin directly extinguished it.

"Don't smoke anymore, when all this is over, find a woman you like, get married, and live your life well."

The two of them looked at the sky outside, and the rain in New York broke through the sky and surged down.

Li Liheng crossed his arms and smiled, "The weather still understands the current situation." ”

Li Shaolin didn't say a word, and after a few minutes, the assistant came over, "The eldest young master, the second young master, have been contacted, the car is staying, and you can leave now." ”

The two nodded, "Okay, go down and wait." ”

After the assistant left, Li Liheng raised his leg and was about to go out, Li Shaolin scolded coldly, "What are you panicking about?" Wait here. ”

Li Liheng was a little stunned by a scolding, "I'll go with my eldest brother." ”

Li Shaolin directly stuffed the documents into his briefcase, crossed Li Liheng and took out the posture of a big brother and ordered, "What are you going to do?" I'm Lee's spokesperson now, so don't join in the fun. ”

Li Liheng refused to obey, "Big brother, I don't feel at ease if you are alone, let me go with you, it's not your business alone, I am also a member of the Li family." ”

"You really want to think that you are a member of the Li family, when I am your eldest brother, I will honestly preside over the overall situation here, this time, I will go by myself."

"Big brother!"

"I'm not talking to you, sit down!"

A cold order came to cover his face, Li Liheng didn't dare to argue with his eldest brother anymore, so he had to watch him leave the office alone.

After a while, Li Liheng stood in front of the window, looking down at the car downstairs from a distance, the black body was almost invisible at a very high height, the eldest brother was wearing a black windbreaker, getting into the car, and the car was running fast in the rain.

Li Liheng's heart ached.

At this time, there was a knock on the office door and the secretary came in.

"General manager, will the meeting be held in half an hour?"

Li Liheng nodded, and hummed in a deep voice, "Open." ”

The secretary withdrew, Li Liheng sat at the desk, looked up and saw the family photo on the table, the father in the photo was only in his forties at that time, and the three brothers were all teenagers, everything seemed to be right in front of him.

Can...... As soon as he came back to his senses, Li Liheng had to admit that the father with a serious face in the photo was no longer there.

The big hand held the group photo tightly in his hand, and the green tendons on Li Liheng's forehead burst out one by one.

The heavy rain was pouring down, Li Tingchen protected Song Wanyu, the assistant hugged Mu Chen, and got into the car one after the other, Song Wanyu was almost paralyzed on the seat, looking at a place with blank eyes, and muttered in a low voice, "Let's just leave your father here?" Stayed in that cold morgue? ”

Li Tingchen's eyebrows were pinched fiercely, twisted, "Mom, that's just Dad's body, his heart is still by our side, follow us home." ”

Like coaxing a child, Li Tingchen gently patted Song Wanyu's back to soothe her emotions, Song Wanyu said in a low voice: "Your father's temper is too hard in this life, otherwise ......"

Halfway through speaking, Song Wanyu stopped talking, "Your father, my heart is very bitter." ”

Such a sentence for no reason, Mu Chen listened to it and couldn't help but doubt.

He remembered the key that his grandfather had given him before he died, and that he had told him to open it at the right time, when was the right time?

At least, not now.

Back at the villa in New York, Li Tingchen settled Song Wanyu, and after many days of physical and mental torture, Song Wanyu was already physically exhausted, but she barely supported Li Chenghua for the last ride, and now, she couldn't hold it anymore, and fell asleep while lying on the bed.

After explaining a few words to the doctor, Li Tingchen left Mu Chen and drove to the Li headquarters building by himself.

When I arrived at the headquarters, Li Liheng had just finished the meeting, and the news of bankruptcy had not yet been released, and the pot had exploded at the meeting just now, and the entire Li family had become a roof in the air, and everyone knew that it was crumbling.

"Second brother, how are you doing now?"

Li Liheng sat on the sofa, "The eldest brother hasn't come back yet, wait for the eldest brother to come back and listen to what he has to say." ”

Li Tingchen exhaled heavily, "Hmm." ”

After being silent for a while, Li Tingchen said, "After the Li family goes bankrupt, you and your mother will return to China, and I will take care of you, you don't have to worry about anything." ”

Li Liheng didn't answer directly, "Let's talk about it after dealing with these things." ”

Li Tingchen's phone rang, and it showed Su Zhi's number, why did Su Boy call?

"Tingchen, why don't you say a word when you go to the United States, I'll go back with you at least to help you! Where are you? I'll go right over! ”

"No, I'm in Li's, it's useless for you to come, stay in China honestly."

"I heard Sizhe say, the Li family is in a very bad situation now, you really don't consider accepting my suggestion, I can ask my Lao Tzu to inject capital into the Li family, if you want, super can go all out to acquire the Li family's ......"

Li Tingchen stopped Su Zhi in a deep voice, "You think too much about the Li family, and you think too much about SUPER International, okay, let's do this first." ”

Hanging up the phone, Li Liheng said, "Super International? ”

"Well, the second brother probably doesn't know, Su Qing's son and I are good brothers."

Li Liheng's mouth opened slightly, "It turns out ...... That's right. ”

"That's all, there will be no direct business dealings between Lee's and Super International, and I won't do what Dad doesn't do."

Li Liheng probably guessed something, nodded, and didn't speak.

It was almost evening, and Li Shaolin finally returned.

Ah Heng and Tingchen got up at the same time, and the two looked at the eldest brother with solemn expressions, and the atmosphere was quiet and a little scary.

Li Shaolin stood outside the door, also silent, did not utter a word for a long time, and then, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, he walked into the office with a pale face, and sat down on the nearby sofa.

I took a document out of my briefcase and placed it on my desk.

Li Tingchen and Li Liheng looked at each other, and then looked at the eldest brother, "What's wrong?" Big brother, what is the reaction to this? Bankruptcy filing not going well? ”

Li Shaolin clicked on the document, "Look at it for yourself." ”

The two brothers quickly skimmed through the documents, and stood up straight in shock!

"This ...... How so! ”

Li Shaolin leaned weakly on the sofa, his fingers pressed against his temples, and the blood vessels under his temples were suddenly spurting blood, almost swelling!

"Dad had already arranged everything, and he expected such a day."

Li Tingchen's unfathomable eyes closed heavily, "Let's ...... I misunderstood Dad. ”

Li Shaolin slammed a heavy fist on the table, and when he landed, the bone joints were ruptured and blood gushed out, "I'm really damned!" ”

"It's not my eldest brother's fault, it's my dad who did it too ...... It's too secretive. ”

Li Tingchen leaned on the sofa in a gloomy manner, "Dad took all the responsibilities into his own name, and all the debts of the bank were attributed to himself......"

"A few months ago, my dad suddenly withdrew all my shares in Lee's, and I was very angry at the time, but I didn't expect that he did this because he was worried that one day I would be held accountable by the bank."

Li Shaolin clenched his fists fiercely, "Dad already knew that his time was running out, and the Li family's time was running out, and he removed the Li family's loans, debts, and responsibilities from a few of us, including his forcible handover of Feiteng to Mu Chen, all in order to facilitate the bypassing of Tingchen and the sole responsibility." I didn't even see it, I was damned! ”

Li Tingchen felt that his breathing was getting heavier and heavier, and his deep chagrin and self-blame echoed in his heart, and he cut his heart like a knife, "Everything Dad did was to protect the Li family." ”

They understood that Li Chenghua took care of everything before his death and concentrated all his rights on himself, just so that he would not affect his sons after the collapse of the Li family's edifice.

Even if the Lee family goes bankrupt, the bank will not be able to find them for compensation, because they have already been raised with the Li family's power center.

Starting from Li Tingchen, to Li Shaolin's stake in Li's was transferred, and then to Li Liheng leaving an empty shell of a general manager, all this is Li Chenghua's plan.

It's just that he himself may not have thought that all this came so quickly, and his own death was so fast.

Silence once again filled the office into a cold ice cellar.

Li Shaolin got up, "My father's death certificate has been passed to the bank, and the bank will completely seize the Li Mansion before ten o'clock tomorrow morning, and the private property in my father's name will be seized within a week, and all this will be over." ”

Li Tingchen held back the burning liquid under his eyes, "It's over...... I didn't expect it to be like this. ”

Li Shaolin patted the third brother's shoulder, "Tingchen, the Li family is gone, Feiteng is gone, at least, you still have a complete appearance." ”

"Rongyan is not mine, it belongs to Yanyan."

"No matter who it belongs to, it belongs to the Li family."

Yes, the face belongs to the Li family.

"The latest news, the famous Chinese entrepreneur Mr. Li Chenghua passed away in the New York Central Hospital last night, after the death of Mr. Li Chenghua, the Li International Group declared bankruptcy, this Chinese enterprise that has lasted for more than 100 years can not escape the heavy blow of the financial turmoil after all......

"The death of Mr. Li Chenghua is a common mourning for Chinese entrepreneurs around the world, and at the same time, the bankruptcy of Mr. Li has also sounded the alarm for all enterprises that are experiencing the financial turmoil crisis, and whether they can survive in this global poor economic disadvantage has become a concern for all enterprises."

"Li Chenghua's three sons gathered in the United States today, which is also the first time that the three brothers have publicly responded to the bankruptcy, but due to the sudden death of their father, the atmosphere at the press conference was solemn and ......"
