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

Page 299

Mo Rourou's eyes showed surprise, but behind that surprise was a look of relief.

He didn't seem to want to reminisce about old times with Ding Yuqi, since they didn't have any real feelings for each other.

All of this is just for show.

"It's so late, let's talk about it another day."

Ding Yuqi didn't say anything, just gave a cold snort, turned around and left. There was her own room on the second floor of this building.

Because he hadn't been back for many years, that room had been left unused.

Some useless things were also stuffed inside, turning it into a storage room.

When Ding Yuqi pushed open the door and saw this scene, her face immediately darkened.

However, he didn't show much interest; after taking out a stack of things, he walked out.

She had something more important to discuss with Xu Lei; the Ding Group's accounts were currently very unclear.

Ding Yuqi had to do everything in her power to turn the tide, while Xu Lei was still dealing with Li Zhenlin, which was quite tedious.

"You always said that I was never polite to you and that I always spoke and acted in a bossy manner."

I feel quite wronged, because no one respects you more than I do.

So if you continue like this under these circumstances, being fussy and unwilling to tell the truth...

There's no need for me to continue this conversation with you; we're both straightforward people.

There's no need to pretend to be ignorant in matters like this.

Xu Lei smiled slightly, having already put down his teacup. His eyes revealed a formidable expression, which Xu Lei understood.

If you continue to put on a show of respect at this point, the other party will only feel that you are taking advantage of them and may even want to have a serious argument with you right here.

Xu Lei is neither stupid nor has he been forced into this position to be treated as foolish.

He was very clear about the temperament and personality of the people he was currently dealing with.

If he continues to tolerate this, Li Zhenlin will only think he's incredibly awesome.

He also felt that no one dared to talk to him, and that Xu Lei was not someone he could easily control.

Moreover, the hatred in his eyes said it all; that truckload of goods had been lost.

If he continues to linger here, saying things he doesn't think are appropriate.

Xu Lei doesn't need to keep arguing with him and being so competitive.

Xiao Qiang saw the look in Xu Lei's eyes and realized that he needed to prepare for everything in advance.

Not wanting his boss to suffer such injustice any longer, Xiaoqiang silently stood up, his eyes filled with warning.

"So you're really planning to fight me?"

Seeing Xu Lei, everyone on this side stood up, ready to make a move.

He couldn't help but feel a little scared, and even worried that if Xu Lei really started to fight him, it would be embarrassing for everyone.

"So you're really planning to fight me?"

Seeing that Xu Lei's men had already stood up and were ready to make their move, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

There was even a hint of worry on everyone's faces as they worried that Xu Lei might actually start a fight with him.

"Whether or not to take action is up to you. I've already said that I don't have much ill will in this matter; I just hope you can understand."

Xu Lei's words were very clear, and they made him realize that many of the problems were caused by the other party forcing him to this point.

Xu Lei didn't want things to get so ugly between them, nor did he want to make them both lose face.

If he were a decent person, he should have stopped doing this.

Instead of always thinking about competing, being competitive and getting entangled with yourself here.

So thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed, and even felt that my trip had been a waste.

"Goodness, you guys are really something. I never thought that after all these years of roaming the martial world, I would be restrained by a little brat like you."

Do you think you're particularly impressive for doing this, or do you want to use me to establish your authority in this industry?

Don't always think so highly of yourself. Young people should always leave themselves a way out.

(Good, good) Li Zhenlin's voice gradually grew louder at this moment, wanting the other party to know that they must know what is good and bad.

Don't always assume that you can easily argue with yourself until everyone is a smart person.

Why suppress everything so completely? In the end, it only leads to mutual destruction.

So after understanding this matter, everyone felt a little bit of emotion.

Xu Lei saw that Li Zhenlin was still arrogant and domineering, and thought that this matter could be settled tonight.

You can see that he sincerely apologized to you, but you didn't expect that he not only didn't want to apologize.

He even made him eat, which at least made Xu Lei laugh. Seeing Xu Lei unable to suppress his laughter.

The sudden burst of laughter left Li Zhenlin and Xiao Qiang somewhat bewildered, unsure of what their boss was up to.

"What are you laughing at? Do you think what I just said is hilarious? Or do you think you're particularly amazing?"

Chapter 373 Explaining

No one can control you. I'm telling you, don't always take yourself too seriously, and don't always treat others like fools.

Xu Lei was speechless when he heard this; he had never treated others like fools.

On the contrary, Li Zhenlin kept nagging and saying these things to me.

He just wanted to keep to himself and behave himself; how could Xu Lei possibly bear such humiliation?

Moreover, he had already seen through the other party's mentality and knew what kind of spirit they had.

So saying these things to myself is simply a way of giving myself a wake-up call.

Xu Lei wouldn't give him that chance again, and Xiao Qiang was already prepared to protect Xu Lei.

At this point, the negotiations had already broken down, so let's not dwell on it any further.

It's unlikely that things will end well, and besides, there's no need to save face with this kind of person.

Talking to him about interpersonal relationships and social customs is like casting pearls before swine.

Instead of doing that, it's better to figure out the ins and outs of this yourself first.

"Judging from your appearance, your men seem intent on killing me. What's this? Are you here to cause trouble tonight?"

Li Zhenlin was still there, swaggering and talking, and Ye Ci shook his head helplessly.

"I don't know what right you have to yell at me now."

After Xu Lei finished speaking, Li Zhenlin felt like he had been electrocuted.

Xu Lei knew that he was just trying to intimidate him by pretending to be powerful.

He made me think that he still had countless powers that could oppose me.

But Xu Lei's words also revealed the truth: he came tonight because he, as a junior, wanted to settle some things that had happened in the past.

It wasn't that she wanted him to ride on her neck or to swagger around like that.

"I respect you because I think you are reliable in doing things, and you never argue with me over these few things."

But now, looking at it again, I realize I was wrong about who they were. It's true, you can't be so carefree and optimistic.

Xu Lei could only sigh silently, his face filled with helplessness and despair. Xiao Qiang also spoke up for Xu Lei.

"There was no place for me to speak here, but our boss has never meant to disrespect you in the slightest."

From the very beginning, when such a major problem arose with the goods, we actually had enough evidence to file a solid lawsuit against you.

But our boss always felt hesitant because of his years of hard work, and you are a senior figure in this industry.

He always tried to respect you, but he never expected it to end like this.

Li Zhenlin initially had a bit of wishful thinking that Xu Lei wouldn't find out what he was doing, but he didn't expect that Xu Lei wasn't just drawing on facts.

"Li Zhenlin initially had some wishful thinking, believing that Xu Lei would not discover everything he had done."

I was a little surprised that they hadn't just drawn on facts to make their discovery, but I quickly recovered from that surprise.

But we have no connection whatsoever, so why do you insist on getting so close to me?

Li Zhenlin found it hard to believe that Xu Lei had such complete evidence.

Why would you treat yourself like this? Is it really just to see a joke?

I still believe that everything I've done is within my capabilities and that I have all the skills I need to control.

That shouldn't be the case, so thinking about this, I was incredibly shocked and surprised.

At this moment, they have already shifted to a different approach and method.

I hope to take this opportunity to quickly change my mindset.

Instead of dwelling on this matter, we need to truly understand the intentions behind everyone's actions.

It's not just that I was forced to sit in this position today.

"It's really funny, everyone already knows the tricks of the trade."

But why are you pretending with me here? I've already said I respect the elderly and care for the young.

I'm not buying it. You want to create a good image in front of everyone? I'm not giving you that chance.

After Li Zhenlin finished speaking, Xu Lei sighed helplessly.

"It seems we can't continue this discussion today."

I always thought that we both shared a little bit of diligence.

At least back then, all the building materials I needed came from you, so I'll always remember your kindness.

After Xu Lei finished speaking, he got up and left, wanting the other party to understand everything he had done.

It wasn't just for show; I genuinely wanted to tell him.

She did all of this because she wanted to repay the kindness he had shown her back then.

Regardless of what the other party thought, Xu Lei had finally fulfilled his wish.

"I used to always have this sense of distinction towards you, but since that's the case..."

If you say that, then this favor is no longer owed.

After saying that, he turned and left Li Zhenlin, somewhat surprised.

I never expected that this kid would still remember such a small thing from so many years ago.

All he did was take a hundred pounds of steel from me, yet he remembered it for so long.

Even now, he can still think about sparing himself in times of crisis.

Is this really just a little bit of affection? There are no other selfish motives involved.

This struck him as somewhat unbelievable, and he even felt that this was not Xu Lei's usual style.

He often felt that people's hearts were clearly priced, and that their kindness towards him was only because they cared about his reputation and power.

But I never imagined that the other party would not care about these things at all, even after they had enough evidence.

He was still thinking of negotiating to improve his subordinates' situation, but now he only felt a little guilty for having lived.

At her age, not a single young child could understand her so clearly.

The inner turmoil was written all over his face, and he was also somewhat ashamed to lift his head.

He felt as if everything was playing a joke on him, as if he could no longer have any conversations or negotiations with the other party from here.

"So from the beginning I hoped to have a proper talk with you, but if you're not willing to do it all at once, then so be it."

After Xu Lei left, Li Zhenlin finally came to his senses from the problems that had arisen.

After Xu Lei left, Xiao Qiang was so angry that he kicked over the trash can next to him.

It's clear he had been suppressing his anger the whole time, and he really didn't expect that old man to be so shameless, even though they had already made things clear.

He's here tonight for peace talks, but he's come with a gun to carry out his plans, and he's come up with all these intricacies.
