Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 289

Mr. Zhang couldn't wait any longer, so he rushed over to Xu Lei's side.

I wanted to ask Xu Lei what was going on, but when I opened the door, I saw that Xu Lei was very happy.

She was sitting there with her legs crossed, seemingly waiting for him to come and find her.

"Mr. Zhang, I knew you would come to see me. The tea is already brewed, let's have a couple of sips first."

After she finished speaking, she invited him to have tea, but he had no interest in drinking tea at all.

He has no idea how things have turned out, and he doesn't understand even half of the situation.

Who would want to spend afternoon tea with someone else here?

Chapter 356 Two People Arrested

"Oh, Mr. Xu, stop keeping me in suspense, here's my truckload of goods."

Don't worry, if those guys really mess it up, how much will this batch of goods cost?

I'll give you another set exactly the same, I don't believe it, these scoundrels.

It's absolutely impossible to ruin our relationship with such underhanded tactics.

They're underestimating me if they think they can set me up on this.

I thought this one simple thing would be enough to settle things with me.

They're sorely mistaken if they think they can scare me. I'm not afraid of being scared.

He was frightened as a child, and he still wants to sabotage this matter.

"If you're trying to make me uncomfortable here, just wait and see."

Hearing Zhang Guo's answer, Xu Lei felt his blood boiling for no reason.

He had certainly taken care of everything, and done it very efficiently.

This matter has never caused any trouble, so I couldn't have been happier.

"I never expected these guys to be so unscrupulous. If I had known this would happen..."

We should have set this up for him from the beginning. He thinks we're all respectable people and he's too embarrassed to confront us, right?

Setting fire to my shop here is tantamount to cutting off someone else's source of income.

They still dare to act so arrogantly here. I heard they even sent someone over to inquire about our situation.

He's utterly shameless. There are all sorts of shameless ways, but I've never seen anyone like him before.

He'd be happy if other people lit fires in their homes, thinking that this would give him a significant advantage.

"They think they've gotten a great deal. What's with this mentality? I've never met anyone like this before."

Xu Lei laughed heartily; he was actually used to it.

"People like that will cause a lot of trouble in the future, so don't worry about them."

Honestly, everyone has to live their own lives, especially with your shipment.

Xu Lei knew that Boss Zhang was a person worth getting to know better, since he didn't have any goods at all from the beginning.

He could always find a way to clean up all the goods himself.

From this point, Xu Lei could tell that he was someone worth getting to know better.

Therefore, Xu Lei no longer wanted to hide anything from him, and instead smiled and told him that everything was fine with the goods.

"If this thing is okay, then where did it go? I heard that it was definitely in a car accident, and it caught fire really big."

Xu Lei certainly knew that if you're going to do something, you have to do it all the way, and if you're going to put on a show, you have to do it all the way.

"Of course it was me. I put in a lot of effort for this play."

If I don't offer some real money, that old man won't believe that these things are already on fire.

So I found some people to go and make it look convincing, and they naturally believed it.

Hearing Xu Lei say that, he was overjoyed.

Firstly, there were no problems with this batch of goods, and secondly, it proved that everything he had done before had not been in vain.

"Great, great! I knew that batch of goods couldn't possibly have problems so easily."

When we first started working together, you told me that I had to be wary of them.

We absolutely cannot allow anything to go wrong from this situation, and now it seems that was absolutely right.

After saying that, Xu Lei laughed heartily, seeing that the matter was almost settled.

I have already explained the situation very clearly here. As long as everyone works together, we can get things done.

It wasn't as difficult as I imagined.

"But we still have to wait here. That guy surnamed Li is a real scoundrel."

You know, he had to make such a mess of what should have been a perfectly good deal for me.

Why are they starting to think of crooked schemes when they haven't even gotten the medicine?

I truly never imagined that people could be so wicked. I didn't believe you when you told me before.

I said, if you're going to do business, just do business. Why are you making it sound like you're raiding someone's home, using so many tricks and schemes all the time?

Now it seems you were absolutely right; it was me who was right.

"You've seriously underestimated human nature. In all my years of doing business, I've never encountered anyone like this before. It's truly an eye-opener."

After saying that, I felt incredibly helpless and aggrieved.

In fact, what they did in this matter was far worse than imagined.

Everyone was just focused on their own business and didn't want to escalate the situation too much.

So from the beginning until now, everything Xu Lei has done has been gradually taken to heart.

I have come to a clearer understanding that everything is much more subtle than I had imagined.

They are all people who try their best to get things done, so how could we let them continue to mess things up like this?

So after feeling so much unhappiness, it actually made me feel a bit helpless.

"Xu Lei's affairs haven't been leaked at all; he's really a formidable character."

I always thought he'd caused enough trouble here, but now it seems I didn't know him well enough.

Li Zhenlin was also in a great hurry at home; he was not as relaxed as he had expected.

On the surface, there was no outward sign of emotion, but rather a deep sense of worry.

I'm afraid this matter might get more involved with me.

"They must be very anxious right now, whether they are pretending to be calm or they are already in complete chaos."

No, we can't get any information about you here.

"I need to quickly send a few more people out to check on things properly."

The people below were also somewhat helpless, as Xu Lei couldn't release even the slightest hint of what was going on.

Even if they went, they would only be making a fool of themselves, but since Li Chunlin has already spoken,

They couldn't go against their wishes, so they could only nod slightly, though they felt somewhat helpless.

But they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

"Okay, we understand, don't worry."

After saying that, he seemed a little scared and quickly withdrew, while the people below naturally changed their tune accordingly.

They never imagined things could turn out this way, so they were a little...

The fact that things could turn out this way has made them a little worried that things might not go well.

"This isn't something we can just do on a whim, and now look what's happened."

They took all the blame on us, as if we were the ones preventing him from getting the message in.

We all know how difficult it is to get information from Xu Lei's side.

Now we've all been pushed to this point; what did we ever do to deserve this?

The people below were also full of complaints, but they also knew that if they continued to cause trouble here, it would be too late.

It will only make people think they're causing trouble.

Chapter 357 Big Misfortune

"Right now, Mr. Li is the most troubled. If you don't want to get into trouble, then..."

Just do the things he assigns you obediently, and do your best no matter what.

Since their leader had already spoken, they didn't dare to say anything more and could only nod silently.

Despite feeling somewhat aggrieved, Xu Lei was sitting with his legs crossed, feeling incredibly happy.

After all, he hadn't encountered a single problem from beginning to end with such a good thing, so how could he not feel happy?

"I'm a little confused. What's going on here? Didn't you say you were going to get all these things out of here before?"

Why did you end up bringing these people into this mess again? You say you're free to do whatever you want, and of course I believe you.

But judging from the current situation, these guys aren't exactly easy to deal with either; it really comes down to a head-on confrontation with them.

I believe you in whatever plan you have, but that's just how things are now.

Those guys aren't pushovers either; we're really going to fight them to the bitter end.

Why not just handle your own business? Why get involved with them and create so many problems?

"As long as we handle the tasks at hand ourselves, I believe we will definitely manage to get everything in order in the future."

Xu Lei was never troubled by these matters.

On the contrary, I think their way of thinking is really terrible.

"I guess they're also eager to see me make a fool of myself. In that case, we can't be in a hurry."

Xu Lei had already said all that, so no one dared to utter a sound.

Even though they knew Xu Lei had come prepared, they also knew he would do a perfect job.

But no one dared to take the risk of this, ultimately feeling it was too terrible.

And some of them seem too risky.

“Many things involve risks. I know what you’re thinking, so don’t worry.”

I will handle everything; all the trouble they've caused so far...

It's all a small matter; if they really intend to use this to cause any trouble...

Then I can't let them off the hook either, even though it seems like a very simple matter now.

But in reality, we will definitely clean this up completely from beginning to end in the future.

The more I think about it, the more helpless I feel. You've seen clearly what kind of formidable characters they are; none of them are people I can handle alone.

Xu Lei pursed his lips, but everyone knew that Xu Lei was always shrewd, accurate, and ruthless in his actions.

They are ruthless and never waver because of anything else.

Xu Lei is just too gentle in his daily life, and he is the kind of person who is determined to handle everything smoothly.

The people below were naturally very worried, fearing that Xu Lei might do something unexpected.

In fact, Xu Lei had already made everything clear and understandable a long time ago.

As long as they are willing to work sincerely with him, Xu Lei will naturally not treat them unfairly.

But if Xu Lei is determined to cause trouble here, it's impossible to really let him go.

Therefore, this matter has now become a reason and justification for why everyone can no longer continue to cause trouble.

The more I think about it, the scarier I feel.

"It's understandable that they're afraid. They've done something wrong, so naturally they're thinking about how to escape this calamity."

So don't worry, although they seem nonchalant about it on the surface.
