My Beloved Fool - Chap 74
Chapter 74: Who is retaliating now?
“All the information we know points to the source of the problem. We don’t doubt who Jian Sui Ying is? I want to know what’s wrong with it. Why did you temporarily change partners, why was it done when this was nearly finished, but also why is your brother being stabbed in the back?”
Li Yu’s forehead was beaded with sweat, and he knew that no matter how the story was explained, he could not pass his father’s angry judgment.
What he had to do to explain to his father, who had always trusted him and was proud of him?
Li Lan looked at his son and waited quietly for him to speak.
Li Yu’s brain was working very fast. He hesitates to say, “Dad, this thing…”
Just then, Li Lan’s cell phone suddenly rang, and he answered the phone, “Hello, Li Xuan.” He glanced at Li Yu and motioned him to sit up and he went to the balcony to answer the phone.
Li Yu stood up quickly, rushed out of the house in three and two steps, and drove away.
Holding the steering wheel in one hand, he took out his cell phone and dialed Jian Sui Lin.
“Hello, where are you now?”
Jian Sui Lin’s voice was very quiet. “I have dinner with my friends. What’s wrong?”
Li Yu murmured, “I have something to talk to you, where are you?”
Jian Sui Lin sneered. Li Yu heard the chair moving backwards as he stood up, and then the scene changed over the receiver. Jian Sui Lin went to a quiet place and said, “Li Yu, last time in the hospital, we both talked too much. That was not my illusion, is it?”
Li Yu looked ahead, but his eyes did not flicker. “No.”
“What are you trying to talk with me now for?” Jian Sui Lin played with decorative buttons on windbreaker cuffs with a smile on his lips.
“Did you know that something happened on the land in Beihai?”
“Of course I know, just as you are holding half of the company’s shares, you know now that the reaction is fast enough, brother. Oh, yeah, I forgot you’re busy dating my eldest brother right now.” Jian Sui Lin slowly clenched his fist.
Li Yu turned a deaf ear to his sarcasm. “Tell me something about the situation.”
“Situation? You can guess, I said earlier that my brother would never let us go. Do you think our business is showing, and will he still watch us pick up this piece of land cheaply? Our contract has been signed, and the pre-investment has gone in. If we can’t get the land, we cannot continue to inject capital. If we can’t get the money to run the project, we can only wait until the capital is gone. Do you think those two fools who read too much will give up? We’re in big trouble now.”
Li Yu’s palm was sweating, wet and slippery, sticking to the steering wheel. He landed on the sidewalk, stopped his car on the side of the road, leaned on the back of his chair and said slowly, “Even if we lost this business, we deserved it. The money was not ours. I don’t care at all.”
Jian Sui Lin laughed twice. “Li Yu ah Li Yu, look at your success, my brother is so good, and he made you like this?”
Li Yu said in a mute voice, “Don’t mention him anymore.”
“Oh? What’s up? Did you find out by accident that my brother is heartless? When he is happy, he will spoil you to the sky. If you dare not disagree with him, he can tread you under his feet and show no mercy at all?”
That’ seemed right in Li Yu’s heart.
He slowly clenched his fist when he thought of Jian Sui Ying’s familiar “Xiao Zhu” that morning and his father’s locked eyebrows and cigarette after cigarette.
Jian Sui Lin restrained his sarcastic tone and said, “Li Yu, I know why you called me. Because of your brother, right?”
Li Yu said lightly, “What do you know?”
“All I know is that my brother is not a shy man. In fact, Big Brother Li is completely ignorant of this matter. He is innocent, but my brother does not think so. He must think that Big Brother Li was in it with us to screw him. I repeat, my brother, will not let us go, he will not let anyone dare to hit him in the face and not pay for it.”
Li Yu looked out through the window at the cloudy weather and suddenly felt a little diffuse. It is not difficult to define what kind of person Jian Sui Ying is.
He is arrogant, domineering and never submissive to softness. Others owe him one point and he has to pay others ten. As long as a person knows him, he will not be surprised to do such a thing, Li Yu is the same.
Slowly he raised his hand and covered his eyes, as if something had broken in his body.
Jian Sui Lin’s voice sounded in his ear like a curse: “Big Brother Li is a very respectable man. He acts freely, but I feel very guilty because he has been dragged down by what we have done. Now that the news has leaked out, Big Brother Li’s reputation will surely be damaged, but we still have a chance to remedy it. Li Yu, do you know what we are facing now? If I don’t pull my brother down, I won’t get a foothold in the Jian Family anymore. Our company will face huge losses and lawsuits. Even if these are not important, think about your brother and your brother-in-law, they will be dragged down. My brother’s revenge is indiscriminate. If you really want to make a scene, your Li Family, even if you can shield him, his career advancement will be over.”
Li Yu felt his throat was dry. Every time he swallowed it, his throat was as painful as a fire. His eyes were sore and could hardly open.
Jian Sui Lin’s voice is as distant as that of an alien voice. “Li Yu, you have to help me, and you have to help yourself. Li big brother is innocent, he received such an impact, and how can you stand it?”
How can you stand it?
How can you stand it?
How can you stand it?
Li Yu slammed open the door of the car and threw his cell phone away like a grenade that ignited the cores.
He flicked onto the door, roared hard in the enclosed space of the carriage, and then started the car roughly. The four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle, like a fast black leopard, rushed out gracefully and silently in the night.
He wanted to find Jian Sui Ying. He didn’t believe that Jian Sui Ying would do that to him. He had to ask him face to face.
