Xu Lei's tone just now didn't sound like he was joking, much less like he was talking to him casually.
Moreover, if this house is lost, I will have so many loans in the United States.
There was still countless amounts of money to be lost, and the thought of it made him panic.
"You've completely disgraced me. Go find someone else if you want, I can't control you anymore."
I told you about this back then, but you just wouldn't believe me and insisted on thinking you were so great.
You thought you had everything under control, but look at you now, you're dumbfounded. Do whatever you want.
Stop trying to talk my way out of this.
After saying that, her eyes held a hint of anger, as if she wanted him to behave.
Stop making such a fuss. Now look what's happened, and he's his own father.
I used to never even lift my eyelids, and thinking about it now makes me angry at my age.
And yet they still have to run around so much to pay off their children's debts.
"Your dad is getting old, and he's a very reasonable person."
He won't ruin your life over some trivial matters. You're his own son; the old man knows that perfectly well.
Chen Xiaohong also has reason to sigh at this moment, as her husband was also driven to despair by debt.
He has indeed been a bit emotionally unstable these days, and as his wife, I feel both anxious and heartbroken seeing this.
"What's the point of saying all this now? Isn't this just hindsight?"
We thought about it over and over again, but we never expected that guy would actually dare to play dirty tricks on us and just quit like that.
Or is he just bluffing us, and his house really does bypass our land?
Chen Xiaohong had at least some knowledge of the matter, and she had also privately asked Director Li about it.
Director Li has made it clear that he no longer wants to deal with this matter.
"Director Li is a money-grubber; he's already reaped all the benefits from this matter."
That's why I turned my back on this matter when the land deal hadn't been finalized.
He was the most attentive person, running around doing everything for us, but now that the house deal is settled, he's turned his back on us.
His little schemes are written all over his face. He's definitely the most dishonest of them all.
Gao Jian was still going on and on with his crazy rant, and Chen Xiaohong couldn't take it anymore.
Her husband has been acting strangely lately, as if everyone is trying to harm him.
I simply couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to it.
"In any case, things are already like this, so there's no use complaining anymore."
The old man was so angry he was bedridden for two days and couldn't get up. What should we do?
· ······Requesting flowers· ········
After saying that, he could only sigh helplessly; things had come to this point.
They were completely dumbfounded; otherwise, there would be no point in continuing down this path.
In the end, it will only destroy all the remaining goodwill between everyone.
"You think I'm not worried? I'm more worried than any of you. This family will really fall apart without me."
After saying that, she angrily sat down and went back to her room these days.
He had gone to great lengths to secure a house, but he never expected it would end up like this.
He really couldn't figure out which part of the process had gone wrong.
How come everything was lost when I had everything under my control?
"Boss, can we really get around this piece of land? If so, that would be great."
.. 0 .......
Xiaoqiang had never heard his boss mention this before, so he was still a little confused.
Xu Lei was still a little worried, after all, many situations were already in front of everyone.
He didn't want things to get too ugly between them.
"As long as he doesn't go too far, I'm still willing to have a serious talk with him about this."
But if he really decides to break off relations, none of us need to wait here any longer; we can all prepare to fight back.
After Xu Lei finished speaking, he only gave a mysterious smile and told Xiao Qiang to get ready.
Xiao Qiang knew that Xu Lei also didn't want to bypass this piece of land directly.
Not to mention that it would affect the aesthetics of the entire mall, Old Master Gao never actually posed any threat to Xu Lei.
It was his good-for-nothing son who flew back from abroad as soon as he heard about the demolition.
He's very diligent; he's been running around these past two days. It's like he's going all out for this.
Xu Lei was unhappy about it, which is why he resorted to this desperate measure; he was also anxious inside.
I really hope this matter can be handled well and that it won't cause any more trouble. The more I think about it, the more helpless I feel.
"Who can argue with that? He had made plans well in advance."
But now it seems that things have simply been handled to this point.
We had discussed it with him before, but the situation was more difficult than we had anticipated.
That kid's been acting really arrogant these past few days. Look at his face—it was so ugly when he said he wouldn't let us pass his house.
Chapter 288 Too arrogant
"Honestly, if he wants to cooperate with us, he should at least show the proper attitude."
This is really something. On one hand, they want to cooperate with us, but on the other hand, they want to outsmart us and treat us like fools.
"He's the only smart one out there, isn't he?"
After he finished speaking, the other party's face turned almost black. Xiao Qiang had noticed Gao Jian's arrogant attitude these past few days.
I felt incredibly upset. I just wanted to see him make a fool of himself and see if he could pull through this.
"He's been the most restless these days, poking someone one minute and then demanding a higher price the next."
He's the kind of person who stirs things up, so we have to get this straight no matter what.
Please, please don't cause any more conflict.
Xu Lei knew perfectly well that Gao Jian must be jumping up and down in a panic right now.
"I'm going to the south these two days to inspect some issues at the restaurant with Gao Xiaochen from '210'. If anyone tries to contact me, just say I'm not here."
Xu Lei understood that Gao Jian was anxious at this moment, and even if he was anxious, he was unwilling to agree to it so easily.
Otherwise, where would he put his face? Xu Lei is not worried about saving face.
Instead, he knew that Gao Jian's assassins had already fled, after all, they had tried every means to find him.
But Xu Lei was unwilling to talk to this guy, since he was in such a hurry.
Xu Lei, on the contrary, was even less anxious and wanted him to know that he was sitting in this position.
It's not something that can be cleared in just a few words.
"Boss, if you really don't want to talk to that kid, we can just have someone from the company's finance or business department talk to him."
Xiaoqiang also wanted to offer some advice, since it was also related to the company's interests.
It's not worth falling out with them over this; Xu Lei has his own considerations.
"What do you know? I just want him to think it through before he goes against me."
We need to show our skills, otherwise people will think we're cowards.
Before long, he'll realize I'm avoiding him when he sees I'm not around. At that point, we can just talk to Grandpa Gao directly.
Wouldn't it be easier if Director Li signed it? Now that we've gone there...
He has to be eaten raw; I know that about the guy I've been dealing with.
After Xu Lei finished speaking, Xiao Qiang nodded in sudden understanding.
"The boss is really amazing. How come I didn't think of that?"
Xu Lei knew that the Thai restaurant on the overpass was very successful, so he took this opportunity to go down and take a look.
"To be honest, I haven't had a chance to go and see this restaurant since it was built. It's a good opportunity to go out and have a look around."
Gao Qiqiang somehow found out he was going out and quickly went to find him.
"My sister went on a trip with you last time, and she was happy for more than a month."
This time you can't just leave it aside again. The climate in the south is pleasant; it's perfect for girls.
After Gao Qiqiang finished speaking, he kept winking at her, which made Xu Lei feel a little awkward.
"I was worried that the place was too harsh. I'm going out to discuss business this time, so don't worry."
If you let your sister come with you, I'll go to such a faraway place, I'm telling you.
When I'm doing business, I don't care about family ties; what if I don't take good care of her?
Gao Qiqiang sensed a hint of refusal in Xu Lei's words.
"What's wrong? Did you worry about me when I went to Southeast Asia last time?"
Logically, this shouldn't be the case; my sister is the most caring person around.
Gao Qiqiang muttered to himself, finding it unbelievable.
Xu Lei was afraid that he would overthink things and bring up their previous encounter in Southeast Asia, which would be even worse, so he quickly nodded.
"Okay, okay, I agree, alright?"
Gao Qiqiang was overjoyed to see that Xu Lei had finally given in.
Go up to him and pat him on the shoulder.
"That's good for you. Don't worry too much. I'll cover all the expenses for the journey."
"And you should just do what you're supposed to do. My sister Xiaolan is the most obedient person. It's not like we haven't had contact with him before. Why are you suddenly being so cautious about this kind of thing?"
Don't worry, even if my sister gets hurt, I won't hurt you, and I won't kill you.
"You're so cautious; you don't seem like someone who's capable at all. You weren't like this before."
After saying that, she smiled slightly and told Gao Xiaochen that she had called him beforehand to investigate Xu Lei.
Hearing that he should arrange two rooms, Gao Xiaochen was very excited.
"I was just worried that I couldn't go back recently. This is great! You guys come to my place right away."
I promise I'll arrange everything perfectly for you. I'll book your plane tickets.
Xu Lei and Gao Xiaochen have indeed made a lot of progress recently, which makes me very happy.
"You've really grown up recently. You know how to act with discretion. That's good, that deserves praise."
The other party was very happy to hear Xu Lei's praise.
"I just got it. I need to learn more from you, Boss, otherwise my mom will scold me again next time she sees me."
I haven't been home for the past two days, and he's been very worried."
After saying that, he smiled helplessly.
“I’m going to see you this time, and I expect he’ll have to argue with me about this a lot, so you’d better make a good impression no matter what.”
Don't make me worry about you anymore; things have come to this point.
You're so smart, I don't have to worry about anything.
You just need to do your own thing.
Xu Lei smiled slightly, looking happy, and also knew that this guy had indeed put in a lot of effort recently.
Moreover, he completed the task very cleanly and beautifully; I'm taking him with me this time.
