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

Page 22

All of this was thanks to Xu Lei, and Gao Qiqiang wanted to thank Xu Lei.

Without Xu Lei's notification, I probably would have been implicated as well.

Upon Xu Lei and Meng Yu's arrival, Gao Qiqiang was overjoyed, saying, "Mr. Xu, we've finally managed to get you here!"

"I've been busy lately and haven't had much time. Don't call me Boss Xu anymore; I should call you Boss Gao now."

"Not at all, without your introduction, how could I have had such an opportunity?"

Xu Lei nodded. 2

Sit down with Meng Yu. 4

"Who is this?"

"Meng Dehai's daughter."

Gao Qiqiang understood instantly, picked up the liquor, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu."

Xu Lei said with a smile, "Don't go too far, just understand."

But to Xu Lei's surprise, the next few people to appear were...

An Xin arrived as well, and not only An Xin, but Gao Qilan also came.

He wore gold-rimmed glasses and had his hair down, looking quite mature, but there was still an undeniable naiveté in his eyes.

Gao Qilan, who is still in school, has already grown into a mature and sophisticated young woman.

"Say hello, this is Boss Xu, our Gao family's benefactor."

Xu Lei shook his head and said, "I can't be considered a benefactor. I'm just too lazy to bother with so many things. If everyone gets rich, I'll get rich too."

Gao Qilan observed Xu Lei intently, while Xu Lei remained unmoved.

Meng Yu was focused on serving food to Xu Lei.

They didn't dare to say a word.

With an imposing presence even without anger, Xu Lei exudes an incredibly powerful aura as he sits here.

Gao Qisheng, standing to the side, remained silent, lost in thought.

Xu Lei knew very well that Gao Qisheng was never a kind person, and that the three siblings in this family had absolutely no moral compass.

The younger brother would hold a gun to the older brother's head.

The younger sister has a crush on An Xin, who is trying to capture her older brother.

There are no truly good people in Kuangbiao, except for Commander An.

An Xin said, "Gao Qiqiang, let me give you a piece of advice: never follow in Feng Dazhuang's footsteps. Don't think we don't know about your dealings at the casino."

“I’ve already retired from the business. Now I’m just focused on running the bathhouse and doing some construction projects, that’s enough for me.”

An Xin said, "Are you willing to do that?"

“I’ve always been willing to do it, but I can’t do anything illegal. Anxin, I invited you here for dinner, not to listen to your lectures. Don’t you know what kind of person Boss Xu is?”

Xu Lei said, "Don't look at me, Gao Qiqiang. You're not my little brother. I'm just doing you a favor in various ways."

Gao Qiqiang is very knowledgeable.

The group was eating when soon, some people arrived to cause trouble.

A group of people wearing masks and carrying knives instantly surrounded the area.

Gao Qiqiang stood up abruptly and asked, "Who are you?"

"It's not anyone, someone paid us to buy your life."

Is it Feng Dazhuang's? Or Bai Jiangbo's?

Shouldn't Feng Dazhuang's matter have been dealt with? Those underlings have long since dispersed.

There are a lot of people.

Just as An Xin was about to say something, Xu Lei took a tissue from the table and wiped his mouth.

He stood up and turned around.

"Give me some face."

The moment the other party saw Xu Lei, they cowered.

"Mr. Xu, we're so sorry. We didn't expect you to be here. We'll be leaving now."

The group of people slunk away.

Gao Qiqiang said, "Mr. Xu, do you know who these people are?"

"It doesn't matter who it is, because everyone has to give me face, and that's enough."

Now, in Jinghai, if you say black, you might think of Bai Jiangbo, but if you say the most prominent figure...

That's Xu Lei.

That's a big shot who's been on TV.

A single product launch event resulted in a significant increase in profits for all major consumer venues in Jinghai.

[Ding! Gao Qilan's admiration for you has increased by 10 points.]

Xu Lei stood there stunned for a long time, then looked at Gao Qilan.

Gao Qilan lowered her head shyly and didn't say anything.

For women, the ability to seek revenge, to roam the martial world, and to command the nation are always irresistible skills.

With just a few words, Xu Lei averted his brother's life-or-death crisis, which was a fatal blow to Gao Qilan at that moment.

"You use a Xiaolong phone too, right?"

Gao Qilan nodded and said, "Yes, the school uses it, and so do I."

Xu Lei said, "Let's add each other as friends."

Meng Yu rolled her eyes, then ignored her and peeled the shrimp, placing it in Xu Lei's bowl.

She did want to be jealous and angry, but what grounds could she use? After thinking it over, she realized that she really didn't have much of a position or status.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Gao Qiqiang didn't object. In his eyes, if his sister could be with Xu Lei, it would be the greatest help he could receive.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Gao Qiqiang was in a good mood and had drunk too much, so he asked Gao Qilan to take Xu Lei home.

On the side of the narrow street, Meng Yu was skipping and jumping.

Gao Qilan lowered her hands and bowed her head, not daring to look at Xu Lei.

"Don't be afraid of me, I don't eat people."

"No, no, no... I heard you spent money at three clubs... Is that true?"

"Can we not bring this up? It was just a moment of impulsiveness."

Gao Qilan said, "But many people know about it and think it's too fake. How could it cost so much money?"

Meng Yu raised her hand and said, "I can testify that all of this is true."

Xu Lei went up and slapped Meng Yu across the buttocks.

Meng Yu was in so much pain that she screamed in pain as they exchanged their bodies.

What are you doing?

"You're the one who talks too much? If you say another word, I won't take you out next time."

"Okay, I know, hmph."

Meng Yu dared not speak.

But I was very happy.

[Ding, Gao Qilan's admiration points +20]

He hit Meng Dehai's daughter! Brother Xu Lei is really fierce.

awesome.

"As someone who's been there, I'd advise your brother to tone it down a bit lately, stay home and sleep, visit Uncle Tai more often for tea, and see Bai Jiangbo less often."

Gao Qilan said, "Yes, I know, I will pass it on."

"If you can't sleep at night, remember to call me. I'm a responsible man."

Gao Qilan nodded and said, "Hmm, hmm???"

Then, watching Xu Lei's hearty smile and the departing Beijing Film Academy students.

[Ding, Gao Qilan's worship points +10]

He's so dashing and handsome.

P.S.: Please support me, thank you everyone.

Chapter Thirty-Five: Bai Jiangbo's Fury (Seeking support, fourth update)

The political landscape in Jinghai has changed drastically; Feng Dazhuang has been arrested.

This is really big news, and the police caught them themselves.

What followed was even more outrageous: a serious crackdown on organized crime was launched throughout Jinghai, resulting in the arrest of many people.

Bai Jiangbo didn't even dare to go out recklessly.

For a whole month, Jinghai remained quiet, with Feng Dazhuang arrested and the bathhouse auctioned off, among other things.

These are all points that many people are concerned about.

The fact that Gao Qiqiang became the owner of a bathhouse was a sudden and poignant turn of events.

Not only that, Gao Qiqiang even took away many of Bai Jiangbo's men.

Not everyone is willing to risk their life in a casino; some people prefer to settle down and enjoy a peaceful life.

Taking a shower or going for a walk makes me quite happy.

It is said that after Bai Jiangbo learned of this news, he immediately wanted to send people to deal with Gao Qiqiang, but he was later stopped.

Some people say that after the matter was discussed at Buckingham that day, Gao Qiqiang presented Bai Jiangbo with three months' worth of bathhouse revenue, and Bai Jiangbo did not pursue the matter further.

It is said that Xu Lei paid the money in advance.

In an instant, the entire city of Jinghai remembered Xu Lei once again.

"Xu Lei went to Buckingham? Didn't he kill the boss's wife?"

"Sigh, Xu Lei is an entrepreneur now, he's not involved in the underworld anymore. I guess the reason he didn't buy Platinum Hammer is because he's still thinking about that night."

"Three clubs, one woman, damn it, when my wife heard about this, she thought he was so cool."

Over the past month, the unfinished houses that Xu Lei needed have gradually been built.

The news of Chen Shuting's engineering projects was also spreading like wildfire in Jinghai.

The attractive benefits of working in the industrial park drew many people, and even Gao Qiqiang wanted his younger sister to come back and work there. However, since his sister was studying medicine or nursing, it wasn't very convenient for her.

My major isn't really to my liking.

Bai Jiangbo sipped his tea and said, "Damn it, if it weren't for Xiao Lei's sake, I would have killed this ingrate in a heartbeat. Doesn't he know who took him under their wing and who protected him?"

Chen Shuting was cutting fruit and handing it to her son.

He ignored Bai Jiangbo.

"Feng Dazhuang has collapsed, and we need too much money lately. Shuting, have you settled the money for your project yet?"

Chen Shuting said, "No, it's not finished yet, so how can we calculate the money? Otherwise, why don't you go ask Xu Lei for the money?"

Bai Jiangbo was genuinely embarrassed to have to swallow his pride like this.

Who would have thought that so much money would be needed now?

"I think Xiao Lei is quite interested in you, isn't he? If you say a few words, maybe he'll give you the money."
