Wait... What are you waiting for?
Who won't starve to death? Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong were just stunned, while Liao Jianli, when he heard this sentence, seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and collapsed on the ground with a "swish".
But Wang Ruxi stopped talking. He just sat there, smoking one puff at a time.
The cigarette he smoked was of an unknown brand, but the filter tip was very long, which made the cigarette look very long.
When Wang Yaolong went to help Liao Jianli on the ground, Wang Feiyu and the other juniors still didn't quite understand what happened. They just felt that the time passed by was extremely long.
Finally, Wang Ruxi finished smoking his cigarette, and his cell phone on the table vibrated at the same time.
"Got it."
Wang Ruxi picked up the phone. After hearing what the other person said, he hung up the phone, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and stood up.
"Mr. Wang!"
The moment Wang Ruxi stood up, Liao Jianli suddenly came to his senses. He broke away from Wang Yaolong's support and stumbled to Wang Ruxi, breathing rapidly.
"Mr. Wang, yes, can you please give me another chance based on our friendship... Please tell Mr. Zhou that I really don't want to offend him. I can satisfy any request he has!"
Looking at despair Liao Jianli and Wang Ruxi were about to leave, but suddenly remembered something and stopped.
"Did Mr. Zhou give you a business card when you were in Yunnan Province?"
"Yes, yes...Mr. Wang, please wait for me!"
Liao Jianli was stunned for a moment, and then ran to the main dining table excitedly. While walking, he rummaged through his Hermès handbag. After a while, he found the rose gold business card, then ran back and handed it to Wang Ruxi.
At this moment, Liao Jianli was extremely lucky. Every time he went out to socialize, he never knew how many business cards he had to collect, and most of them were naturally thrown into the trash can.
Fortunately, Zhou Wang's business card was made of extraordinary material, so he saved it carefully and didn't lose it.
Wang Ruxi took the business card, looked at it, and couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
Such a fancy style... He has really changed.
Immediately, under Liao Jianli's hopeful eyes, Wang Ruxi stuffed her business card into her pocket and said to Liao Jianli, "Maybe there is a glimmer of hope. I will try to help you fight for it..."
Wang Ruxi only mentioned him and ignored him. Cao Meijuan, Wang Yaolong and others, but it was enough for Liao Jianli to be ecstatic.
"Hey, Mr. Wang, please go slowly, go slowly..."
Amidst Liao Jianli's continuous greetings, Wang Ruxi disappeared at the door of the restaurant.
It was only then that Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong finally couldn't help it... In fact, they couldn't help it just now. The problem was that they tried to talk to Wang Ruxi, but Wang Ruxi never paid attention to them.
"Old Liao, what's going on?"
"Yes, Mr. Liao, which song is Mr. Wang singing? Even if he is dissatisfied with us because of Mr. Zhou's matter, there is no need to be mysterious here, right? ?"
Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong were really confused and even a little dissatisfied.
I know you, Mr. Wang, are awesome, but there is no need to treat us like nothing, right?
Sisi, who was comforting Lele who was slapped, could not help but mutter: "Brother Liao, you are indeed going too far. How can you hit a woman..."
Regarding Lele and Sisi, Liao Jianli He just sneered, now is not the time to deal with them, but looking at Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong, Liao Jianli thought for a while and spoke anyway.
In fact, there is not much difference. They will know it soon anyway...
Liao Jianli, who has already recognized the reality, is not an ordinary person after all. He is terrifyingly calm at this moment.
"Mr. Cao, Mr. Wang, considering that we got to know each other and the previous cooperation was quite pleasant, I will give you one last piece of advice."
Liao Jianli also sat in the seat in front of Wang Ruxi, lit a cigarette for himself, and said lightly Said: "The evidence of your previous projects colluding with Party A, go back before it's too late, and destroy as much as you can..."
"Old Liao, what do you mean?"
Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong both had expressions on their faces. A change.
Before Liao Jianli could say anything more, the ringtones of their cell phones rang one after another.
When Cao Meijuan saw the incoming call, her eyes froze at the unique tail number, and she quickly walked aside and answered the phone.
"Hello, I'm Cao Meijuan... are you looking to talk to me? Can I ask what it's about..."
On the other side, Wang Yaolong was shouting into the phone in disbelief:
"What did you say? The bank said we violated the rules and required Pay it back immediately? Are you crazy or am I crazy? It's seven o'clock in the evening. Which bank is still working now..."
Qu Jie and Wang Feiyu on the side watched helplessly as their parents received a series of desperate calls. Among them, there were expressions of panic and disbelief respectively, and their expressions became more and more confused.
So...what happened?
With their experience and age, they are bound to be unable to see the essence of all this, but at this moment, Zhou Wang's grin before leaving appeared in their minds...
In Wang Yaolong and Cao Meijuan, due to the successive bad news, they When he became a little hysterical, Liao Jianli turned his cell phone to silent, and his eyes slowly passed over the Western restaurant in front of him.
In this high-end restaurant, which cost more than 20 million yuan, the music is still playing, and the waiters are still shuttling back and forth, working hard to clean up, but the number of guests is much less visible to the naked eye.
It's ridiculous that Cao Meijuan and Wang Yaolong didn't even notice this.
The remaining guests were all friends of the three of them. They were still in a state of shock and uncertainty, and some were even hesitant to come over and ask them what happened.
The restaurant, which was renovated only half a month ago, still showed signs of brand-newness everywhere, but in Liao Jianli's eyes at this moment, there seemed to be signs of dilapidation.
In the midst of the chaos, Liao Jianli leisurely hummed a ditty to the tune of Peking Opera:
"Seeing him building a tall building, watching him entertaining guests, watching him... the building collapsed."
...
"Mr. Jin, I don't understand. "
In the driving Bentley, Qi Lingtong, the vice president of Douyin's e-commerce operations department who was personally acting as the driver, looked at Jin Lu, the silent director, in the rearview mirror. After holding it in for a while, he still couldn't hold it back.
"What don't you understand?"
Jin Lu, who was frowning and thinking about something, was startled when she heard this.
"How did Mr. Zhou get in touch with Mr. Wang? If I ask for your explanation, Mr. Wang is really so mysterious..."
Qi Lingtong, who was forced to leave by Jin Lu just now, said in confusion. .
"Whether he is mysterious or not, you will know if you go back and pay attention to Mr. Liao."
Jin Lu chuckled and said, without explaining much, she just turned to ask: "It's Mr. Zhou Wangzhou, are you familiar with him?"
"I met him in Hangzhou some time ago. He is not outstanding. The new shareholder, a native of Yunnan Province, can be considered a small asset..."
As Qi Lingtong, he has come into contact with countless asset tycoons. Zhou Wang is definitely outstanding among young people, but in horizontal comparison, of course, it is a little less interesting. , so Qi Lingtong made a very "objective" evaluation.
Jin Lu nodded, but still frowned, "It's strange. I've never seen him before, so why do I think his name sounds familiar?" "
Mr. Jin, you haven't seen him in a short video. Well, he runs an account himself..."
Qi Lingtong said half-jokingly.
"You know I only watch Tiktok... In other words, Zhou Wang is still a big Internet celebrity in our Douyin, eh?"
Jin Lu was smiling, but because of the "keyword", a line suddenly came to her mind. Stringed together.
Under Qi Lingtong's surprised eyes, she hurriedly took out her phone, clicked on her mailbox, and soon found an encrypted email about "equity changes" that was only circulated among the company's board of directors.
"...Equity transferee: Zhou Wang."
When she saw the keyword, Jin Lu's pupils couldn't help but shrink sharply.
"Mr. Jin, are you okay?" Qi Lingtong noticed something strange about Jin Lu and couldn't help but wonder.
Jin Lu didn't say anything, but looked at Qi Lingtong with a strange look.
Individual shareholders who own 0.1% of Douyin's equity...
do you call this "small assets"?
Qi Lingtong felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Jin, what's going on?" "It's nothing. If you don't go on business trips recently and just stay at the company headquarters, you will know it soon."
Jin Lu just smiled thoughtfully.
...
When the time came to eight o'clock in the evening, Wang Ying, Brother Jie, Cindy and Yue Yue, who was at the end, walked out of the mall together.
The square was brightly lit, and not far away there were children laughing and playing under the leadership of their parents. Several peers passing by were still discussing which bar in the Workers' Sports Center to have fun at night. Several people were in a trance.
Cindy couldn't help but look back, her eyes seemed to want to penetrate the barriers of the building and see the Western restaurant on the top terrace.
The past hour was like a dream to a few people. They witnessed a dispute...a quarrel that might happen countless times every day around the world.
However, this little quarrel seemed to trigger a huge earthquake.
That was beyond their scope of cognition, but there was no doubt that, perhaps many years later, they would still remember everything that happened today vividly.
Especially those so-called "successful people" who seem to have a lot of money at first sight, but in the end they become devastated and become hysterical.
The lady who looked so elegant turned out to be a madman, and she was at odds with Liao Jianli.
The frightened Wang Ying had the courage to find the restaurant manager and ask for their performance fee. Fortunately, the restaurant manager was upset at the time and was too lazy to argue with her. She directly asked Wang Ying to take out the payment code and settled the fee. Gave it to her.
What Wang Ying didn't know was that her request for money was very timely, because as long as she waited ten more minutes, she would find that the restaurant's account could no longer be paid...
"Hey, you said..."
At this time, all the time Yueyue, who was walking at the end with his hands folded, finally couldn't help but speak.
Her face was still a little frightened. When a few people looked over, she said: "Well... this restaurant can't really close down like this. Brother Yu and that young master Qu's family are so rich, they... They should be able to survive it, right?"
Cindy and Brother Jie looked at each other, while Wang Ying sighed after a brief silence.
She walked up to Yueyue, and when the other party subconsciously raised his head, Wang Ying said sincerely: "Yueyue, I know your intentions are not bad. Listen to my advice and look for a chance to apologize to Momo later. Maybe ...You can still stay in the band."
"...What do you mean?"
Jump suddenly took a few steps back as if he was stimulated by something, and said with some excitement: "We didn't form the band together. "When did Jiang Mo decide whether I should stay or go?"
"It's not Jiang Mo, it's us."
Wang Ying shook her head calmly.
Yueyue was stunned and looked at Wang Ying without knowing why.
Wang Ying came closer and stared at Yueyue intently.
"Do you know how much that watch on Jiang Mo's hand is... Let me tell you, it's a Patek Philippe, three million. Just this afternoon, Cindy and I watched Zhou Wang buy it for Jiang Mo."
Wang Ying added He raised his wrist and let his Patek Philippe female grenade appear in his sight. The elegant and bright watch shone magnificently under the light.
"Also, didn't you ask us where we bought this watch? Yes, it's also a Patek Philippe. It was given by Zhou Wang...it's not too expensive. It can be sold for more than 200,000 yuan if it is resold."
Wang Ying decided . Looking at the dull Yue Yue, "Now do you know why Momo has the right to decide... If you still don't understand that I am doing it for your own good, then there is no need to wait for Momo to decide, you can leave now."
...
Across the street, there is Mi Zhongshan Old Hotpot and Hujiashan Store.
With a per capita price of over a hundred yuan, it is certainly not a high-end gourmet dish for Zhou Wang today.
But when it comes to hot pot, you really don't have to pursue high-end ones. Those are useless. The most important thing is whether they have the taste.
In fact, if you want to eat hot pot in a mountain city, you have to look for the little-known shops in the streets and eat the "saliva hot pot", otherwise it will not be authentic.
But because he was eating Shancheng hot pot in Beidu, Zhou Wang chose a relatively reliable chain store in order to ensure that it had at least the most basic taste.
Miao Ying drove Zhou Wang and Jiang Mo here, then went to pick up Jiang Qingkui from the hotel. Zhou Wang took his senior sister into the hot pot restaurant and specifically requested a private room.
The decoration of the hot pot restaurant is average, and the private rooms are also very simple, but fortunately there are private rooms. After Zhou Wang explained that he would order something worth at least a thousand yuan, the waiter certainly had no objection.
Tripe, duck tongue, spicy beef...
try all the special dishes, and choose two portions of some of them. Later, Zhou Wang found that it was a bit difficult to collect 1,000 yuan, so he ordered another bottle of the most expensive one in the store. 42% blue and white Fenjiu, this is the price.
The wine was prepared for Wang Ruxi, so Zhou Wang didn't care about it. After the dishes were served, he greeted his senior sister and started to enjoy the meal.
He is really hungry.
Although there is no chance when he is in a Western restaurant, when he is particularly hungry, Zhou Wang is only willing to eat something spicy, as it is appetizing and will not make him tired.
But Jiang Mo didn't move his chopsticks very much. He just sat quietly across from him, helping Zhou Wang rinse his belly from time to time. Most of the time, she just looked at him quietly.
"Second brother, it's okay, it's really okay... Damn, what happened to Beidu... Don't worry, I won't show off. If I really need help, then I will definitely have to rely on you..."
Zhou Wang was still fighting with Zhang Shihao . Telephone.
Because Lin Dantong and others were also present before, Zhou Wang was not surprised how Zhang Shihao got the news. Faced with the concern revealed in the other party's words, Zhou Wang was still a little warm.
Although he was not sure how sincere Zhang Shihao was, the fact that he could make this call already explained the problem.
Wuyou Media is nothing, but the Zhang Group is still very powerful, so Zhang Shihao is still quite confident in what he says.
After exchanging pleasantries and hanging up the phone, Zhou Wang glanced at his phone. There were still several unread messages on his phone, from Lin Dantong and Wang Xiaoxiao.
At that time, he didn't pay attention to the two people's reactions. It didn't matter after this moment. However, at the end of the message Wang Xiaoxiao sent, there was also a hotel address and house number.
Zhou Wang smacked his lips. If Jiang Mubai's was included, he would have two places where he could be "lucky" tonight...
Jiang Mubai was a pretty good girl, although Zhou Wang didn't see her until after he left. It was a tip-off message, but at least it showed that she was indeed on his side.
At that time, she didn't know that Wang Ruxi would help her. In Jiang Mubai's eyes, she was on the "weak side", so her move like this was extremely rare.
After a simple thank you, Zhou Wang put away his phone and looked at Jiang Mo helplessly: "Senior, will my face secrete adrenaline?"
"Huh?"
Jiang Mo didn't understand what he meant.
"Then why are you full just by looking at me?"
Zhou Wang then smiled.
It's a pity that Jiang Mo couldn't catch Zhou Wang's "advanced cold joke". He just blinked his eyes in confusion, then shook his head, "I'm not hungry..."
"Okay, but...Senior sister, how brave are you?" It seems to have suddenly grown a lot?"
Zhou Wang asked seriously.
Although Jiang Mo would stare at him in the past, she would always be shy from time to time. Unlike now, she can stare directly at him all the time. This is usually something Su Yajing can do.
This change seems to have started when today, and it doesn't seem to be in the Western restaurant, but looking around, I am not sure of the specific moment.
"Would you not like it?"
Jiang Mo pursed his lips slightly and asked immediately.
Zhou Wang was about to answer when he suddenly felt something. He turned around and saw a man in a suit appearing at the door of the private room...Wang Ruxi's bodyguard.
The man nodded to Zhou Wang and then disappeared. Then, Wang Ruxi, who looked a little dusty, appeared at the door of the private room.
Zhou Wang didn't care about talking to his senior sister anymore, and his expression became serious.
If nothing else, the test of his [Hidden Round] has really begun now...
