After bidding farewell to Counselor Lu, the three of them rushed to have dinner. After dinner, it was already very late when they returned to the hotel.
Li Xiucheng picked up the phone and called He Wuduo.
"Li, do you have anything to do with me so late?"
He Wuduo was half lying on the sofa watching TV. He was very surprised when he received the call. Li Xiucheng had said before that he would leave tomorrow. What should be explained has been clearly explained, so why are he calling again?
"You don't know about this, do you?"
"What do you mean? What are you talking about?"
Li Xiucheng's words were confusing, and He Wuduo was confused.
"It's okay, I'll wait for your call tomorrow morning."
Dududu~...."
"Hang up? Nervous!" He Wuduo frowned and focused on the TV again.
A night of silence.
The next day, He Wuduo came to the company as usual, then made a cup of coffee and started working.
But when the wall clock struck nine, Jian Le still didn't appear, and he suddenly frowned.
Usually the guy would say hello even if he didn't come.
What's going on today?
Without thinking much, he waited another half an hour and Jian Le hadn't come yet before he picked up the phone and dialed Jian Le's home phone number.
However, no matter how hard I called, no one answered.
Just then, two police officers opened the door and walked in.
"Mr. He Wuduo, we have something that we need your help in investigating!"
He Wuduo was startled and had an inexplicable foreboding feeling. He put down the phone and said, "Please tell me."
"Mr. Jian Le is a shareholder of your company, right?"
It seemed that the premonition had come true. He Wuduo's breath was stagnant and he said nervously: "Yes, what happened to him?"
"Jian Le is suspected of paying for murder and wounding. He has been arrested. We need to ask you some questions now."
"Buying... buying to hurt people?"
He Wuduo took a breath, how could he do this...wait!
Suddenly, Li Xiucheng's words last night echoed in my ears again.
"You don't know about this, do you?"
"It's okay, I'll wait for your call tomorrow morning."
He understood that Li Xiucheng was asking him last night if he was involved in paying for the murder.
In other words, Jian Le hired the murderer to take revenge on Li Xiucheng!
Subconsciously, he said what was on his mind.
"No, no! I was not involved."
The two policemen were stunned. Before they even asked, the guy was in a hurry to clear up the relationship.
"Mr. He Wuduo, don't be nervous, we are just making routine inquiries."
"Oh, okay, please ask."
"Mr. Genler's finances..."
More than twenty minutes later, He Wuduo sent the two policemen out, then immediately ran to grab the phone and made a call.
"Hello!"
"Ah, Mr. Li, you are there!"
"Of course, I have been waiting for your call!" Li Xiucheng said calmly: "Now it seems that you are not involved, or your relationship is so deep that he is unwilling to reveal you."
The voice was calm, but across the phone line, He Wuduo felt an inexplicable chill, just like the feeling he felt that day when he learned that the copyright matter was all calculated by Li Xiucheng.
He assured in a panic: "Really, Li, you have to believe me. I didn't know that Jian Le wanted to retaliate against you. He never mentioned it to me. I dare to swear to Christ."
"...."
There was silence on the phone. He Wuduo was extremely nervous. His heart seemed to be grabbed by a big hand. Every second that passed, the hand would tighten a little, and maybe it would be crushed in one second. Lose!
Just when He Wuduo was about to collapse, suddenly, Li Xiucheng chuckled and said: "Don't be nervous, He Wuduo, I believe in your character."
"ah."
Hearing Li Xiucheng's voice, He Wuduo felt tears filling his eyes for an instant. He didn't even realize that Li Xiucheng had become a huge demonic obstacle in his heart, and that deep fear could no longer be completely eliminated. erase.
He said excitedly: "Thank you for your trust, Li, I'm so happy."
"Yeah, but there's something you have to do for me."
"What did you say?"
"Jian Le has to pay the price if he does something wrong. He will have to spend the next three years in jail. It is useless to ask for money and shares.
Let's do this, you come forward to 'help me' buy his shares in the company, and give the money directly to his wife with his consent. "
He Wuduo nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."
At the same time, he felt relieved. Fortunately, Li Xiucheng only wanted shares in the company, so the punishment was not too severe.
Just then, the voice sounded again.
"Besides, three years is too long, and women sometimes can't stand being lonely. It's understandable that they get divorced and elope after meeting a handsome guy!"
"..."
He Wuduo felt chills all over his body. He was not stupid. He could naturally understand such an obvious hint. It was because he understood it that he felt horrified!
Li Xiucheng wanted to make Jian Le lose everything.
He couldn't even imagine how miserable Jian Le would be after he was released from prison!
This man is terrible!
For a moment, he was so frightened that he forgot to respond until the phone rang again a moment later.
"He Wuduo, what do you think?"
He Wuduo opened his mouth, but was unable to make a sound, because once he agreed, he would be in charge of the rest.
Jian Le started a business with him and they were friends. How could he betray his friend like this?
But if you don't do it, this devil-like man will definitely be dissatisfied.
God knows what will happen to him.
"He Wuduo, I have to catch a plane soon."
"I...I know, I will do it." He Wuduo lowered his head deeply, as if from this moment on, even the last trace of dignity and stubbornness was placed at Li Xiucheng's feet, allowing him to trample on him!
"Well, see you next time!"
"Have a nice trip!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Xiucheng returned to the room in a happy mood, then saluted and took a taxi with the two women to the airport.
Next, it depends on He Wuduo's determination. If he can perfectly complete the task assigned to him, it means that he is not a participant in the murder incident. He is already very obedient, and he can be asked to help him do some things in the future.
If he is perfunctory about himself, it means that he has something up his sleeve, and he is probably involved in the murder-for-hire incident this time. Then he will also deal with it the next time they meet.
...
The return journey went smoothly.
Zhao Yimo transferred at the airport to fly to the capital and did not leave with him. Li Xiucheng and Zhao Xueyao got the checked boxes and walked slowly towards the airport entrance.
Zhao Xueyao walked a little slowly. In her eyes, the airport gate was as resisting as the gate of hell.
She looked sideways at Li Xiucheng, her eyes falling on his handsome face, and she felt mixed emotions.
This trip to the United States was like a beautiful dream. The two of them had many beautiful memories and spiritual touches in the dream.
But now as long as she walks out of that door, the dream will be shattered, and she is so reluctant to let it go.
When stepping out of the door, Zhao Xueyao couldn't hold back after all, and couldn't help but lean towards Li Xiucheng.
"Xiucheng!"
"Um?"
As he murmured, Li Xiucheng turned his head in confusion. A beautiful face quickly enlarged in his eyes, and then he felt a chill on his cheeks. He was shocked.
