Inside the No. 1 private room of Hedi Laotianzi.
Zhao Laoliu looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the main seat with a embarrassed expression, and did not dare to say a word for a long time.
The person sitting in the main seat at this moment is none other than Li Yuehua's father, Li Minggong.
At this moment, Li Minggong's face was not pretty, and his eyes were fixed on Zhao Laoliu.
Not to mention how much regret Zhao Laoliu felt at the moment, if he had known it was like this, he would never have come here.
When he learned that he wanted to see Li Minggong, Zhao Laoliu had already hesitated, but finally came.
But after seeing the scene now, he regretted his decision.
He really couldn't understand why Li Minggong's eyes kept falling on him?
On the contrary, Qin He on the side didn't pay attention at all.
Looking at the delicious food on the table, Zhao Laoliu had no appetite at all, and turned his eyes to Qin He for help.
However, Qin He ignored his gaze.
Seeing this situation, Zhao Laoliu couldn't help it.
But now I can't leave even if I want to. If I leave, who knows if that old guy Li Minggong will accuse him of any crime?
After hesitating for a long time, Zhao Laoliu finally decided to boldly break the suffocating atmosphere.
Immediately he raised the wine glass in his hand and stood up. He said respectfully to Li Minggong.
"Master Taishou, I propose to you a toast."
However, when he finished speaking, Li Minggong didn't even look at him, and just said coldly.
"Zhao Laoliu, you are quite courageous."
Zhao Laoliu's heart suddenly sank when he heard this, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.
As expected, Li Minggong's words came next.
"Zhao Laoliu, I didn't realize you had such courage. Not only did you drag my son into trouble, but now you even want me..."
At this point, Li Minggong did not continue, but the meaning of his words was already obvious.
However, when Zhao Laoliu heard this, the expression on his face was extremely strange.
You must know that the person who dragged Li Yuehua into the water was not Zhao Laoliu. How come this guy Li Minggong said that he was the one who dragged him into the water?
Although he couldn't understand what happened, Zhao Laoliu did not dare to refute at all.
He could only look at Qin He, who was drinking tea comfortably, with pleading eyes.
Li Minggong obviously saw the abnormality in Zhao Laoliu's eyes, but the expression on his face did not mean to let him go.
Cold words followed one after another.
"If you can't give me a reasonable explanation today, then you won't be able to stay in Qinghe City in the future."
By this time, Zhao Laoliu had also come to his senses and knew that if he didn't give an explanation today, he would be completely finished.
Thinking of this, his eyes fell on Qin He again, and he said to Li Minggong next to him with an innocent look on his face.
"Sir, you misunderstood! I was wronged! I did not do this! Even if I had ten more courages, I would not dare to drag Mr. Li into the water."
As he spoke, he glanced in the direction of Qin He intentionally or unintentionally, and his meaning was naturally obvious.
At this time, Li Minggong's voice came out again.
"Then you mean that Brother Qin planned all this?"
"I still don't believe that a person who has just arrived in Qinghe City for a short time can do this!"
"Even if you lie, at least consider whether others will believe it or not!"
When Zhao Laoliu heard this, his face suddenly turned ugly.
After all, he was indeed wronged in this matter.
But Li Minggong's words are not unreasonable. After all, it would be impossible for anyone else to believe that Qin He could do this in these days.
Nowadays, Zhao Laoliu can only eat Coptis chinensis as a mute person, and cannot tell the story of his suffering.
Seeing that it was difficult for him to explain the matter clearly, luckily Zhao Laoliu gave up the explanation and asked with a grimace.
"Then, Lord Prefect, what kind of explanation do you want me to give?"
However, when Zhao Laoliu said this, he already regretted it, because he could clearly see that Li Minggong was looking at him with an extremely cold gaze at this moment.
Until this time, Zhao Laoliu could react.
Zhao Laoliu was not stupid. He naturally saw what Li Minggong wanted to get. If not, how could he have caused this drama?
Thinking of this, Zhao Laoliu could only grit his teeth and speak.
"The villain knows that this matter is my problem. If you don't mind it, I'm willing to pay another 20% as an apology."
It wasn't until Zhao Laoliu said this that the expression on Li Minggong's face looked better.
But he still snorted coldly and shouted at Zhao Laoliu.
"In your eyes, this prefect is that kind of greedy person?"
Zhao Laoliu was speechless as soon as she said this. Just when she didn't know how to answer, Li Minggong's words made a 180-degree turn.
"That's all. Seeing that you are so sincere, I won't pursue it this time. But if you give me another 20%, won't it be too little?"
When he heard Li Minggong relent, Zhao Laoliu couldn't help but let out a heavy breath. However, when he heard the next words, his face suddenly turned ugly again.
You must know that 20% was given before, and now another 20% is given away, which is already a lot!
After all, he still has a large group of people waiting for him to feed.
If he really gave out another 20%, he wouldn't have much left.
But judging from the current situation, it is obviously impossible not to agree.
Just when he was about to say yes, Qin He's voice suddenly rang out.
"Sir, I think there is something wrong with this matter. Although we are engaged in these shameful businesses, we still have many brothers who have followed us through life and death. If there are fewer, the brothers will naturally not be happy when the time comes. .”
Zhao Laoliu obviously did not expect that Qin He would actually help him speak at this time. He couldn't help but feel happy and looked in the direction of Li Minggong, obviously wanting to know how Li Minggong would react.
However, this look made Zhao Laoliu's face suddenly look ugly again.
Because at this moment, the prefect had no intention of relenting at all and was still looking at Qin He coldly.
Seeing that Qin He's help and words were ineffective, Zhao Laoliu couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart.
But something unexpected happened again.
Although Li Minggong was looking at Qin He with cold eyes at this moment, he did not refuse directly, but nodded slightly.
"That's it! In that case, I won't say more, but you have to act with caution in the future. If something really happens, don't blame me for turning against you."
Zhao Laoliu on the side could not help but be stunned by Li Minggong's two consecutive changes in attitude.
