Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 240

"I don't know why this girl is so irrational."

Gao Qiqiang was speechless. His younger sister had always been a science-oriented girl with a calm and organized mind.

But for some reason, ever since she met Xu Lei, all her rationality has vanished.

I feel like I've lost my soul if I don't see him for a day.

But in order to protect his sister's dignity, Gao Qiqiang naturally wouldn't tell him any of this.

"You'd better have some free time, I'd like to go and check on them. Since the two of them seem interested, don't let them down."

Do you know about this marriage? My sister acts like she's missing something if she doesn't see you for a day.

Gao Qiqiang felt particularly helpless after he finished speaking, and Xu Lei also felt a little guilty, knowing that he had been too busy lately and had neglected the other party.

"Don't worry, I'll be back as soon as I'm done with this."

Gao Qiqiang was aware of the incident at the Thai restaurant, and Gao Qilan had been keeping a close eye on the news.

· ······Requesting flowers· ········

They noticed that Xu Lei hadn't made any move from beginning to end, and they thought something had gone wrong.

"My silly sister cried and begged me to come and help you, but I know you have ambition."

You're very decisive in these kinds of situations, so even if I don't help, you'll definitely be able to get through this."

Xu Lei took a deep breath.

"My goodness, my brother-in-law is really something else."

The project in Niluo Village is still nearing completion, so the time between them is quite similar.

"This project can finally be finished, and we can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

The entire resort was built, and Gao Qiqiang was then tasked with developing and planning the trial operation projects.

. ......... ...

He really didn't have time, but just then, Xiao Qiang ran up to Xu Lei with a troubled expression and whispered a few words in his ear.

"Mr. Zhao, the next step is the operation. We can discuss that in detail another time. I think the project is being done quite well."

After speaking, a subtle expression appeared in his eyes, indicating that things had turned out better than expected.

After saying goodbye to Gao Qiqiang, Xu Lei quickly headed to a certain place.

"It was President Cheng who said he wanted to see you one last time before he left."

Xu Lei knew that there was still some affection between them, even though he had betrayed him time and time again.

But there was a reason for it; Xu Lei was ultimately a little soft-hearted towards him.

"Boss, you absolutely mustn't be fooled by this woman again. I don't think she's telling the truth at all."

He shouldn't have made so much noise in the first place. Now that things have changed, he's trying to absolve himself of all responsibility.

I think he has no good intentions at all; this time he's just crying and complaining again.

Talking about our past relationship might make everyone feel better, but I doubt it will work.

While driving, Xiaoqiang didn't forget to remind Xu Lei.

"Just drive your car. Do you think I need you to teach me how to do things?"

Xu Lei was a little anxious. When they arrived at the destination, Cheng Cheng had already packed her luggage. Xu Lei didn't want to make things too ugly.

Instead, let him make his own choice, let the opportunity leave quickly, and don't make things too bad.

At the current pace, Xu Lei should handle things more decisively and efficiently.

Chapter 278 Guilt

Chengcheng packed her luggage, a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

“I don’t know when I’ll be able to come back after I leave, and I still feel guilty towards you.”

I know that God will never forgive me for what I've done.

But you didn't say anything to me in the end, and I'm still very grateful.

After saying this, Manager Yan's eyes welled up with tears. Chengcheng really didn't want to leave.

But he knew he could no longer stay by Xu Lei's side; what he had done had aroused public outrage.

"I deserve to be struck by lightning. There have been many nights when I thought about secretly ending my life."

I never saw you again, but I knew today was the day I was truly leaving.

I was really reluctant to part with you, and I kept thinking about saying goodbye to you in person, but when we met, I didn't know what to say.

Regarding the previous project, I made a mistake due to a moment of confusion, implementing many unnecessary measures.

Xu Lei interrupted him before he could finish speaking.

"I'm not an emotional person. The reason I forgave you is because there were reasons, and you are also a pitiful person."

We parted amicably, and we won't need to keep in touch often after you go somewhere else.

Whether you're doing well or badly over there has nothing to do with me; I'm still able to see you today.

I just feel like we should have a proper talk, and don't think I still have any feelings for you.

Actually, no, I just wanted to say goodbye as a friend.

Xu Lei spoke in a cold tone and didn't say much, but simply took out a bank card from his bag.

Are you insulting me?

Chengcheng thought Xu Lei was trying to kick him while he was down, making him look even worse.

She had betrayed him time and time again because of money, but now Xu Lei had put aside his past grievances and produced a bank card.

"Think what you want, but this money is for you anyway, and you were in the wrong first."

They received the punishment they deserved. Remember to live a good life over there and don't always carry such a strong sense of guilt.

After saying that, he left Xu Lei without looking back, and everything changed after he left.

They knew in their hearts that as long as they continued at the current pace, they would handle all the matters at hand carefully.

We will absolutely not let them have any regrets or thoughts.

"You still won't forgive me, and of course I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness either. Since that's the case, let's part ways amicably."

After saying this, the other person kept hanging their head helplessly, seemingly without any energy or spirit.

Xu Lei simply placed the bank card in Cheng Cheng's hand; he had no interest in whether Cheng Cheng spent the money or not.

This way, we can put an end to this little bit of our relationship and avoid making things awkward for each other.

Now, Xu Lei knows in his heart that everything is gone.

As things continued, Hua Du remained silent. On the way back, Xu Lei kept his head down, seemingly very unhappy.

"Boss, I heard that the recent projects have made a lot of money, and the Thai restaurant has also been reporting good news one after another. That's really great news."

A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes as he spoke, and Xu Lei certainly understood now.

Since it's all in the past, let's not dwell on it anymore, otherwise things will become very complicated.

"Alright, I don't need you to comfort me. I know all about these things, and I understand them all."

After saying that, he sighed helplessly, knowing that everyone was prepared for what had happened.

They would definitely not cause any more conflict, and with the help of three lawyers, Zhang Haitian finally had his sentence reduced by half.

The person the other party most wanted to see was undoubtedly Xu Lei.

"Boss, Zhang Haitian wants to see you. Otherwise, I'll turn him down. I heard he's quite resentful inside."

He even hired many lawyers to help him clear his name, saying he was truly innocent.

Xu Lei shook his head helplessly. His behavior could only be attributed to a guilty conscience, and Xu Lei was too lazy to bother with such matters.

And I don't want to make things so complicated.

"Does he feel wronged? If so, then we don't need to argue with him about it."

"Just get everything done; there's no need to waste time talking to him about the rest."

Xu Lei didn't want to see him, but the other party kept calling him, insisting on having a chat.

"Boss, take a look at this."

The other party also felt somewhat helpless, after all, things had come to this point and they had already called them.

Even though they each had their own regrets.

But I don't want to escalate the situation, nor do I want things to become so ugly.

"If he wants to see me, please arrange a time. Chairman Li said he wanted to meet me today."

The matters with the Chamber of Commerce haven't been resolved yet, and I should give Chairman Li an explanation.

Xu Lei knew that Chairman Li was always fair and had been in the business world for many years.

Having reached this position, one naturally has plans in mind, and is even more astute than expected.

"Boss, Chairman Li isn't contacting you at this time because he thinks this matter is related to you, is he?"

It was Zhang Haitian who dug his own grave; that Zhang had to come up with so many gimmicks.

Now that he's in trouble, they can't possibly pin the blame on us, can they? Did he say something to the Chairman?

Xiao Qiang felt something was off as he drove, while Xu Lei watched the trees flash past the car window.

He already had a plan in mind; he knew exactly what the other party was up to.

Moreover, these things were extremely easy for him; it would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

But now that things are going to come out into the open, things will be quite different.

Moreover, they couldn't care less about hiding their shame and had to bite the bullet and do it.

Otherwise, things will only get worse and more anxious in the future.

"Who says it isn't? I've seen the characters involved before, and it's not as simple as I imagined."

He thought he could actually get everything done properly, but all that 1.9 was just wishful thinking on his part, a pipe dream.

Xu Lei didn't care what the chairman wanted to talk to him about, since he had been asked about it.

He could no longer hide, and could only sigh helplessly, lamenting the ever-changing circumstances.

When Xu Lei arrived at the office room, the door was open. As soon as Xu Lei reached the door, Chairman Li called out to him.

Please come in and look around. The office is bright and spacious, with several black leather sofas on the side. Xu Lei just stands there, motionless.

"Alright, stop being so reserved, hurry up and sit down, I have something I want to ask you!"

Chairman Li's expressionless face made it impossible for Xu Lei to discern what he was thinking. After the secretary came up and steamed the water,

He forcefully retreated, and Xiaoqiang waited quietly outside.

The huge office was left with only the two of them, their eyes filled with a hint of helplessness.

Chapter 279 A Good Parting

"There's no one here anymore, so let's talk."

Director Li leaned back, his eyes holding a hint of interrogation, indicating that he would have to think carefully before asking him to tell the truth.

What consequences will I have to bear after doing this?

"I'll speak while standing."

Xu Lei stood up, his hands behind his back, looking like a child who had done something wrong and had been caught by the homeroom teacher.

Director Li has always treated Xu Lei well, and he always thinks of him when there are good things to do.

This time, Zhang Haitian caused such a big incident, and Director Li, who was watching from the sidelines, was certainly aware of the ins and outs of the matter.

"I really admire you now, I don't even know which one is the real you anymore."

Are you being so gentle and polite for my sake, or are you really like that?

You never say a word normally, but you can get Zhang Haitian imprisoned in the blink of an eye.
