Dong Chenghui took out his mobile phone tremblingly, his fingers wet the screen with sweat. He swiped several times but could not reach Huo Jili's phone number.
"Hello."
The moment the call was connected, his heart was beating wildly. It was a gentle and elegant voice, but it sounded like a talisman to his ears.
"Huo, Mr. Huo." Dong Chenghui swallowed.
"Xiao Zhu, go help me get a pot of boiling water."
Huo Jili sent Assistant Zhu away. As soon as the door closed, he put away his gentle smile and said, "Who allowed you to call me? Didn't I tell you that I need to see Shang Ailian if I have something to do? Where is she?"
Dong Chenghui knew this rule. For so many years, Huo Jili's number had only been stored in his mobile phone but had never been dialed out. But when something happened that affected his life, he had no choice but to deal with it.
"Something happened, Mr. Huo."
"explain."
Huo Jili gave a brief order.
"Our goods were intercepted by customs."
"waste!"
Huo Jili's mind was still clear despite his extreme anger, "Put the blame on Ye Mingqian, testify against her, and then give you a sum of money to temporarily hide in Southeast Asia for a while."
"Yes, then I should go to the customs to identify the goods first?"
Dong Chenghui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was not pushed out to take the blame.
A little Ye Mingqian is just a stranger who has not yet received his certificate, how can he compare to him, a capable person who has been working hard for many years.
Although I have to go abroad temporarily, I can go anywhere with money.
Dong Chenghui's previous decadence was swept away, and he straightened his body and walked towards the door.
There was a slamming sound of the door closing, and then there was no sound. Ye Mingqian turned off the bug.
She didn't have to worry about being discovered. The instrument Chi Yanchen gave her was disposable and would automatically explode into powder half an hour after it was turned off. Even if the cleaning staff found it, they would just think it was dirt.
As Ye Mingqian thought, Dong Chenghui and Shang Ailian were indeed the people Huo Jili placed in Aishang, and they were helping him do shameful things.
The only thing she didn't expect was that Huo Jili was going to put his head on her to block the gun. He was indeed terrifyingly ruthless.
【Is it done? 】
The phone screen lit up, it was a message from Chi Yanchen.
[Well, I have already recorded it. 】Ye Mingqian edited a piece of text, stopped his finger on the phone screen, hesitated for a moment, and then clicked send.
[Huo Jili wants to push me out and let Dong Chenghui hide in Southeast Asia. 】
Almost immediately after sending it, I received a reply from Chi Yanchen.
[I will ask people to keep an eye on Dong Chenghui. You don’t have to worry about the seized goods. I have asked people to evacuate the important things. If I find out, there is only a pile of rags on your head. 】
Huo Jili wanted to push her into the abyss, but the person who saved her was Chi Yanchen.
Ye Ming read the man's last message lightly, and finally deleted all the messages with a contemptuous smile.
It doesn't matter whether he saves her or not, they are just using each other. Every man around her is doing it for their own benefit.
Only by being strong can we have enough capital to build Aishang into an international brand, and use our influence to overpower Huo Jili to protect ourselves from Aishang.
The cooperation with M Li is an opportunity, and she must be perfect.
Ye Mingqian made up his mind and made an appointment with Bai Ge for an interview tomorrow.
In the afternoon, after Dong Chenghui came back from the customs warehouse, Shang Ailian called him to the financial office, drove everyone away, and scolded him bloody.
"If you didn't have a face like yours and you still wanted to see people, I would slap you a few times today to see if I could get the water out of your head."
Shang Ailian clasped her fingers and tapped hard on the materials she got back from the customs. In the dozen or so pages above, not a single word mentioned the words 'porcelain' or 'antiques'.
"Do you still have the guts to bypass me and call Mr. Huo directly? Are you afraid that I will avenge you and sell you directly? Use your pig brain to think that we are grasshoppers in a boat. Without anyone, the boat will capsize. Look at you today What did you do? Let me ask you, where are Mr. Huo’s goods? Where did you hide all the goods? "
Dong Chenghui's body was trembling and shaking like a sieve, and the expression on his face was so ugly that he was about to cry, "I, I don't know, I put every item in personally, there are eleven items in total, just give me ten I don’t even dare to betray Mr. Huo.”
Shang Ailian slapped the table irritably, "It's useless to tell me. Now that Mr. Huo's goods are gone, the police still have clues about Xiao Hei and the others. When he is caught, be prepared to wipe your neck and apologize."
Dong Chenghui's knees could no longer hold up, and he knelt on the ground with a bang. He walked over and pulled Shang Aishang's trouser legs, crying so hard that he burst into tears, "Old Shang, we have so many friendships, you can't look at me." Damn it, please help me beg for mercy in front of Mr. Huo. I really didn’t touch Mr. Huo’s goods. By the way, I took pictures and I’ll show them to you now.”
As he spoke, he clicked on the photo album on his phone to show her.
Shang Ailian just took one look at it and then angrily slapped down the phone, saying with hatred: "You are simply tired of living, and you still keep your records when doing things. If Mr. Huo finds out that you do this, you won't know how to die. "
Huo Jili was very suspicious. If he knew that Dong Chenghui had left traces of his actions, he would definitely think it was to threaten him.
"I'll delete it right now." Dong Chenghui picked up the phone and deleted it for a long time without deleting it. He was shaking too much.
No wonder he was like this, the shock he suffered today was beyond what he could bear.
First, he knew that the police had the whereabouts of Xiao Hei, and then the customs detained the goods, thinking that Mr. Huo's goods had been found. However, when he went over and saw that only the contents of a pile of fabrics were missing, he was shocked at the time. This was worse than The consequences of things being discovered are even more serious.
Either there was an insider who knew that Mr. Huo was going to transport goods abroad and secretly moved the things, or there were unknown forces behind the scenes who knew about Mr. Huo's secret business and were sabotaging it.
No matter which one it is, it is the worst result. It is better to just push the whole pot to Ye Mingqian if the goods are all available.
"Useless shit."
Shang Ailian really couldn't stand Dong Chenghui's useless appearance, so she grabbed the phone and kicked him aside, "I'll go to Mr. Huo and tell him that you won't be allowed to contact him privately in the future. Also, if you don't want to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish tomorrow, just Go trace the whereabouts of the goods, make up for your mistakes and still survive, otherwise I can't protect you no matter how many good words I say in front of Mr. Huo."
"I'll go right away."
Dong Chenghui was so frightened that he didn't even think of monk Ailian saying thank you and rolling up from the ground.
Shang Ailian couldn't help but sigh when she looked at her old colleague. The small square mirror on the table reflected her appearance, her three-white eyes, and her lip lines that had been pursed for many years, everything marked her seriousness. not to be trifled.
Does she already look that old?
"Huo Jili."
She whispered the name that she loved and hated at the same time.
