C365 Seventh Day!
"Why can't brother-in-law do anything?" "You're underestimating your brother-in-law too much. Yuyan, don't worry, I won't trouble you with this matter." Smiling against my heart, I immediately take out a tissue to wipe Lili's tears. My mouth was full of negative words to prevent her from worrying, thus I did something foolish that I shouldn't have done.
Compared to failure, I was even more unwilling to make Chu Yuyan bear an unwarranted crime for my own benefit, becoming the "traitor" or "sinner" that everyone in Chu Family scolds. Because Chu Wenyang and I are different people.
I am not the kind of person who would give up everything and treat all my family and friends as tools for the sake of benefits.
I have my own thoughts and I have my own rules for dealing with people, and that is not to put benefits above everything else.
"Really? Brother-in-law, do you really have a way? "But why do I always feel that you are just comforting me?" Chu Yuyan blinked her moist eyes, took the tissue from my hand, and dabbed at the tears at the corners of her eyes.
I maintained a smile that went against my heart as I sincerely said, "Yuyan, please believe me. I really do have a way."
I really hope that you can go find big sister as soon as possible and get someone from the Fang family. My status is too low, I can't even get into the Fang family's gate, and it'll be even harder to get to big sister's side. I'll have to rely on you for everything. Chu Yuyan squeezed the tissue into a ball, looked down at the folder in her other hand, and once again bit her lips with a conflicted expression.
I can arrange a place for you to rest anytime. As for this folder, when there's no one around later on, you can destroy it. I don't want it to become your burden. After making my promise, I was actually more worried than anyone else.
"..."
In order to make it convenient to take care of Chu Yuyan, I arranged for her to stay with me in the same hotel. I purposely chatted with her, ate with her, and didn't mention anything about the documents at all.
However, throughout the entire day, Chu Yuyan did not show the slightest hesitation on her face. She seemed to be preoccupied with something.
As for the folder, I advised her to destroy it in her room. She said it wouldn't be too late to finish it later in the evening.
I was worried that this silly girl would do something stupid, so I stuck to it and had to let her destroy the folder in front of me before I could get out of here.
Chu Yuyan had no choice but to take out the top secret documents and flush them into the toilet, disappearing little by little.
"Alright, I'm relieved now. Yuyan, you should rest early. I still have something I need to do, so I need to go back to Iron River." I secretly heaved a sigh of relief and quickly left Chu Yuyan's room.
Returning to the Iron River office, the time was already nine in the evening, and tomorrow morning was the deadline Chu Wenyang had given them!
Almost helpless, I thought of a headache in the office and smoked cigarettes one after another.
As time went on, the night got darker and the time was getting later. The seventh day was getting closer and closer.
Almost all the Iron River members left the Iron River Building and returned to their respective residences. Only my office was still lit.
A bright moon hung high in the sky, and the black clouds gradually obscured the view. A muffled sound of thunder exploded in the air, and a drizzle appeared in the night sky, as if it was a prelude to a storm.
The wind rushed into the windowsill, blowing the documents on the windowsill over and blowing my hair into the air.
The drizzling rain turned into a torrential downpour and clattered against the window. I pulled it closed as I pleased, and stared at the night sky which was starting to rumble with thunder and lightning. I silently sighed, "Could it be that I'm really going to look for Lee Family?"
"To the south of the Iron River, this is the first step to seeking the Lee Family. This is the best strategy, and the Lee Family will inevitably look down upon them. In the future, if you want to request for resources from the Lee Family, I'm afraid it'll be very difficult."
"Furthermore, the Iron River is extremely important, my personal money is not that important anymore. If I were to work with Chu Wenyang, not only can I allow my Iron River to develop rapidly, I can also cleanse my Star Net, and this matter is indeed worth it."
"However, this old thing, Chu Wenyang, wants sixty percent of it in one go. He is simply asking for an exorbitant price."
"The most important thing is that I said earlier that I won't cooperate with Chu Wenyang. Now, I have a request. Once we work together, Chu Wenyang will definitely get something out of it."
"It's even possible that he would use his power to gradually suppress me and control my Iron River. This old thing has really hit the nail on the head. No matter what, I just earn from it."
I muttered to myself, there were only two strategies left in my mind. Firstly, I wanted to seek the help of Lee Family, and secondly, I wanted to cooperate with Chu Wenyang.
There's a third plan, of course, but I've already asked Chu Yuyan to destroy it, because I really don't want her to take on the responsibility.
If I had used the third tactic and became a traitor of Chu Family, then I would be the true culprit, the true sinner!
This was undoubtedly hurting Chu Yuyan, and my conscience did not allow me to do so.0
That night, I didn't sleep at all. Thunder echoed in my ears, and I sat by the window with a chair in my hand. I silently watched the Pearl City on the rainy night, my heart filled with melancholy.
This kind of feeling is like the end of the world, made me think of the time when I left the Ling Family, like there was no other way.
At that time, thanks to Chu Yuyan's help, I was able to see through everything.
But now, the two schemes could not be used. Although it would be better to seek Lee Family s, because of his special identity, he feared that nothing unexpected would happen if he recklessly came into contact with Lee Family s.
Since Lee Qi is beside me and I don't know who the person behind him is, this could attract a lot of killing intent. At that time, not to mention me, even the people beside me might be implicated!
"Now is not the time for us to truly come into contact with Lee Family …" I stubbed out my cigarette and sighed deeply.
"..."
The night rain swept across the city and streaked across the earth. All things began to awaken, and the sky began to light up, but it appeared to be gray.
The seventh day had finally arrived!
On this day, Chu Wenyang no longer used the phone. With a confident smile, he personally came to the Iron River Building, entered my office, and sat in front of me.
Chu Wenyang crossed his legs, lit up a Tegon cigarette and went straight to the point, "I've been waiting for a long time these past seven days. Nephew Lee, tell me your answer. Do you want to cooperate or not?"
"If you don't cooperate, your Iron River will definitely be defeated by me. No one can do anything about it."
"But if we work together, I'll only take 60% of it, so I won't force you too much."
"How is it? I'll give you five minutes to think it over. "
