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

Page 54

Please, these TV dramas are all about cracking down on organized crime. In these dramas, the highest-ranking person is the leader from above, okay?

To put it bluntly, introducing the development history of you big brothers is just for the sake of the plot.

If they really wanted to take you down, they wouldn't need so much evidence; the state apparatus would just crush you.

Zhong Xiaoai took a bite of the snack and said, "Can we make money? If there's a lot of competition, won't Xiaolong mobile phone sales drop?"

"No, sales will explode. I have too many factories already. If I open any more, it will be a waste of time."

"You let others set up factories, and then you acquire them, right?"

“Smart, didn’t you notice that sentence at the end of my contract? I have no problem sharing my technology with you, but I can also directly use your technology.”

"No matter how good other people's technology is, the whole country knows now that the technology in your industrial park is the best."

Xu Lei said, "There are always capable people. We can't be complacent. Most of others may not be good, but if there are good ones, we should learn from them."

This.

Zhong Xiaoai was silent.

"What, you think I'm the arrogant kind of person? The kind who thinks they're the boss and everyone else is trash?"

Zhong Xiaoai said, "Isn't that right?"

"Who told you that? That's slander!"

Zhong Xiaoai said, "I often see your assistant, Gao Qilan, with you. Where is she?"

"She went to find her brother; I guess they went to get into a fight."

Meanwhile, at home, Gao Qilan smashed a lot of things, throwing all sorts of things on the ground.

Gao Qisheng, standing to the side, trembled and dared not speak.

Gao Qiqiang looked at Gao Qilan with deep remorse.

"Brother, logically and emotionally, Xu Lei could be your future brother-in-law, okay? Besides, without Xu Lei's introduction, how could you be sitting in this position now?"

“Xu Lei went to Uncle Tai’s place and was forced to hand over his skills. You were right there, why didn’t you try to persuade him to stop?”

"Ah, why won't you say it? What right do you have not to say it? Aren't you Uncle Tai's godson? In the construction group now, besides Uncle Tai, aren't you the boss?"

"You've been in this society for so long, and this is all you've achieved? You can't even say a word. I think you should just quit and go back to selling fish, really."

The more she talked, the more anxious she became, and the more tears welled up in her eyes.

Gao Qiqiang said, "I can't say that Uncle Tai doesn't fully trust me yet."

"Then let's not have Uncle Tai, can't you be the boss?"

After saying that, Gao Qilan kicked the door open and left.

Gao Qiqiang watched Xiaolan's retreating figure and sighed silently.

As the older brother, I really need to do something; continuing like this is truly pointless.

Gao Qisheng said, "What should we do, brother?"

"Let's wait and see for now. Don't touch the phone. Remember that. Focus on running the casino. Remember to be discreet, understand? My intuition tells me that Xu Lei is doing something, something very big. I don't think Xu Lei will be wronged."

"I also don't think I'll be wronged. Except when it comes to sleeping with women, Xu Lei might feel wronged, but otherwise, he'll be making a killing."

After leaving Gao Qiqiang's house, Gao Qilan silently called Xu Lei.

"Boss, where are you?"

"Drinking."

"You didn't take me with you when you went drinking, so I'm going to find you."

....................................

Gao Qilan entered the bar, and upon seeing Xu Lei, she threw herself into his arms without saying a word, reaching out to hug him.

"Boss, I'm incompetent. I failed to protect you."

Xu Lei was speechless, then patted the little girl's head and said, "What are you thinking? I'm your boss. If anyone should be protecting someone, it's me protecting you."

"But if you take away that identity, I'm a few years older than you, I'm your older sister, okay?"

Xu Lei looked at Zhong Xiaoai across from him and said, "Sorry, please excuse my poor performance."

Zhong Xiaoai shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'm used to it anyway."

Gao Qilan wiped away her tears, then sat down next to Xu Lei and said, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh."

Zhong Xiaoai said, "It's okay. By the way, Gao Qilan, I have a question for you. If something happened to your brother, would you go to save him?"

Gao Qilan said quietly, "No, this is what we agreed on back then."

Zhong Xiaoai said, "Did Gao Qiqiang make an agreement with you?"

Xiaolan nodded and said, "Yes, I know very well what my brother did, but if you want to ask me, I won't tell you. You'll have to investigate it yourselves. All I can say is that I won't save my brother. It was a predetermined ending from the beginning, and there's no need to get involved, is there?"

"Impressive. As expected, none of the women around Xu Lei are incompetent. Let me ask you another question: If your brother and Xu Lei were to reach a point of no return, which side would you be on?"

Gao Qilan put her arm around Xu Lei's and said, "It's also Xu Lei, and this is also an agreement."

? ? ? ?

When Zhong Xiaoai first learned about Gao Qiqiang, she quickly listed him as a dangerous person.

"Your brother is very open-minded?"

"My brother wants me to take a different path. And, assuming my brother and Xu Lei are truly destined to be enemies, it's just fate playing tricks on us, something we can't change. But I'll still follow Xu Lei because that way I'll be happy. My brother agrees with that."

Zhong Xiaoai said quietly, "This is probably the best ending."

Sister Lan tied her hair up slightly and said, "I didn't tell my brother about the supervisory team coming in."

"Um, why not say it? If you do, your brother will be prepared."

"From the very first day you entered Jinghai, your information was thoroughly investigated. Everyone knew what this meant, and everyone was actually prepared. Moreover, the group's idea was that no one in higher positions would refuse a bribe."

The supervisory team did not appear once, but multiple times.

There are still many problems, such as why these things cannot be cleaned properly.

Sister Lan leaned gently against Xu Lei and said, "Boss, are you still feeling unwell?"

Xu Lei said, "It's painful, I feel really bad. I've lost so much money."

Gao Qilan said, "It's okay, boss. I'm yours. Today, I'm here to comfort you. Do whatever you want, don't treat me like a human being."

Xu Lei and Zhong Xiaoai both burst out laughing.

Gao Qilan is surprisingly interesting.

"If I remember correctly, you own the plastic surgery clinic, right? With your personality..."

Gao Qilan said, "That's my outward personality. Inwardly, I just want to be a young girl, rely on my boss to get rich, and I won't think about anything else. Only when my boss is gone will I start to get busy and think about my own affairs."

Zhong Xiaoai said, "I strongly suspect that you, Xu Lei, have definitely drugged Gao Qilan. This girl is doomed. Without you, she probably won't survive."

Xu Lei said, "This deal is on me. I won't say anything more to you. I'm leaving now."

"Yes, go ahead. With a beautiful woman by your side, this is the proper way."

In the car, Gao Qilan blushed and said, "Boss, can I take back what I just said?"

"How can that be? You're a real woman, you can't go back on your word."

"I... am shy, nervous, embarrassed, I'm not ready yet."

"It's okay, I'm a very good person. Your boss is a good person, okay? I'll only hold you while we sleep, I definitely won't touch you. You know, I've been wronged."

Xiaolan nodded and said, "Boss, let me tell you something. Suppose, I mean suppose, if one day in the future you really become my brother's sworn enemy."

"I respect your choice."

Gao Qilan said, "Ah, what choice do I have?"

Upon arriving home, Xu Lei led Xiao Lan into the bedroom.

Xiao Lan hugged Xu Lei tightly and asked, "What do you think I should choose?"

Xu Lei said, "Kill me, take revenge or whatever, I'll take it all."

Xiao Lan angrily bumped her head against Xu Lei and said, "That's not what I meant. I meant that if that day really comes, I won't marry you."

Xu Lei was stunned.

"Oh, it's okay, I won't leave. I'll work by your side, but I think I should forget about marrying you."

Xu Lei thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

"I'm overthinking it. How could I possibly be worthy of being your wife, boss? If I really became your wife, such a large company would probably have a weakness."

Xu Lei didn't say anything, and was pushed down by Gao Qilan to the side of the bed.

Gao Qilan held up her phone, played some music, and said, "I recently learned a dance, boss. I'll dance it for you. See if it looks good."

Xu Lei watched quietly.

Wearing a suit, Gao Qilan swayed her body gently to the music.

Although it was a bit stiff, it was clear that Gao Qilan had indeed studied these things.

With her hair loose and her glasses not obscuring her view, Gao Qilan could only see Xu Lei.

The most beautiful story is that you are the only one in my eyes.

I can't stand others, and I can't tolerate others in my eyes.

I'm so vulgar.

I, Gao Qilan, am very vulgar; I'm just a very silly, love-struck fool.

I want to wait for you. If I can't wait to become your wife, then I'll stay by your side and watch over you.

I'll be there if you need me.

Meanwhile, outside the door, Chengcheng and Chen Shuting exchanged a glance.

"We made a mistake in coming here."

Chen Shuting said, "It seems that it really is."

Chengcheng asked, "Can Xiaolan be trusted?"

Chen Shuting said, "The important thing is not the issue of trust, but Xu Lei's attitude. In the beginning, Xiao Lan was actually Gao Qiqiang's last pawn placed by Xu Lei's side to protect him, but Xiao Lan fell in love with Xu Lei."

Chengcheng said, "Poor little girl, she got tricked like that. This guy wasn't wronged at all, he was overjoyed. He was just worried about how to quickly promote Xiaolong phones, and now the whole world is advertising for Xiaolong phones."

The night is deep.

Gao Qilan leaned against Xu Lei and offered to light a cigarette for him with a lighter.

Xu Lei coughed and said, "Well, I need to talk to you about something. Don't get angry after you're done."

"Well, you go ahead."

Xu Lei said, "Come in, all of you."

Come in?

The door was pushed open, and Chengcheng and Chen Shuting leaned against the doorway, one on the left and one on the right, like door gods.

Gao Qilan quickly pulled the blanket up and said, "Boss, they, they, ah..."

Gao Qilan understood and said, "This is all a scam. So, you've always had a good relationship with them. They're your women, ahhh."

Gao Qilan covered her head with the blanket, feeling completely deceived.

Chengcheng said, "Little girl, you've been fooled by Xu Lei. That guy is a fraud. He won't let himself be wronged. If he gives away Xiaolong's mobile phone technology, Xiaolong's mobile phones will sell even better."

"And with this commotion, the supervisory team will come to Jinghai, and through their efforts, these evil forces in Jinghai will be eliminated directly."

Chengcheng was dumbfounded and said, "So you mean that it was wrong of me to comfort her?"

Xu Lei said, "Ahem, well, I'm sleepy."

Chengcheng and Chen Shuting looked at each other and then went outside.

The door was closed by a fox.

Xu Lei's voice pleading for mercy could be heard from inside.
