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

Page 29

This affection has simply shifted to Xu Lei.

"I thought you hated these things."

"I don't dislike it, it's just that it's better to be open about it. It makes things easier, and there's no need to hide anything from me, you know?"

"I understand. By the way, what is the reward you want? I really don't know."

In reality, most girls would understand, but Xu Lei forgot that this is the era we live in.

Xu Lei said, "It's nothing, just a photo."

"Didn't we already have a video call?"

"They're the ones who wear less clothing."

Gao Qilan blushed instantly and said, "Ah, how could you? You're such a big boss, why, you you you you you."

After a while, Gao Qilan sent a photo to Xu Lei.

The photo is simple; the girl is wearing a white shirt and simply showing off her figure to Xu Lei.

It wasn't that explicit, but for Gao Qilan, it was already considered very explicit.

The shyness on her face couldn't be hidden.

Xu Lei admired Gao Qilan for maintaining her beautiful yearning for love.

[Ding, Gao Qilan's admiration points +10]

Wait, it even increases worship points.

"Then I'll come back tomorrow, and I won't pack my things."

"Okay, let's throw them all away."

"Ok."

The next day, Xu Lei personally drove to the train station to pick up Gao Qilan.

Gao Qilan, dressed in an ordinary long dress, sat obediently in the passenger seat.

"where are we going?"

Xu Lei said, "It's just a meal, a family dinner. Since your brother asked me for a favor through you, it's natural that you need to be there."

"Um, Xu Lei."

"You can call me Xiao Lei, after all, I'm younger than you."

"Xiao Lei, I want to explain to you. My brother begged you, it was my brother who begged you. I won't be angry if you refuse. However, I don't want our relationship to become a stepping stone for my brother to climb up the social ladder."

Xu Lei said, "It's up to you. What if your brother dies in the future?"

“I don’t know. From the beginning, my brother told me that he had embarked on a path of no return. He told me that if he broke the law and got arrested, I should just live a peaceful life and not worry about anything else.”

I can see it clearly.

"So, are you going to get involved in your brother's affairs?"

"I don't know, you help me decide, I want to hear your advice."

Xu Lei said, "Come back and follow my path. It's stable, long-term, and you'll earn just as much as your brother."

Gao Qilan was stunned for a long time before saying, "What if my brother asks me for help in the future?"

Xu Lei frowned and said, "This is a very strange problem."

Gao Qilan said, "I mean, suppose you really become a big entrepreneur in the future, and my brother breaks the law, will you be implicated because of my relationship with him?"

Xu Lei said, "What's our relationship? What will happen then?"

"Never mind, drive carefully."

The car stopped at a house.

Xu Lei got out of the car with Gao Qilan.

Gao Qiqiang stood at the door and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Xu. I'm sorry to trouble you to come and pick up my sister."

Xu Lei said, "Alright, enough with the polite talk. You're really willing to send your sister out like this? Aren't you worried that I'm a bad person?"

Gao Qiqiang said, "No, no, no, Mr. Xu spent a fortune just for a night of passion. I think Mr. Xu is a sentimental person. My sister will definitely not suffer if she follows you."

Gao Qilan stomped her foot angrily and said, "Brother, what are you saying?"

Xu Lei and Gao Qiqiang laughed.

Gao Qilan still enjoys acting.

When she has someone to rely on, she's just a little girl.

However, if she were to rely on herself, then Gao Qilan, with her glasses on, exudes the aura of a female CEO.

When they arrived in the living room, the food was already on the table, and Meng Dehai sat to one side, looking at Xu Lei.

Xu Lei said, "Uncle Meng, I'm sorry to bother you."

"My daughter prepared these dishes herself, so you'd better come up with an explanation. My daughter is still angry."

"Sigh, it's all business dealings, business dealings."

Several people took their seats.

Xu Lei cut to the chase, saying, "It's a very simple situation, Gao Qiqiang, what can you offer Uncle Meng?"

Meng Dehai silently watched Gao Qiqiang.

Gao Qiqiang remained silent for a long time before saying, "I can give you all the darkness of Mang Village, and I will also have Li Youtian personally kill Bai Jiangbo."

Meng Dehai was stunned for a long time before saying, "Let's eat."

Xu Lei said with a smile, "Okay, it's done. Let's eat and have some drinks."

Meng Yu glanced at Gao Qilan, who stared with wide eyes, giving off an expression that said, "I don't understand anything."

I have to give this woman a try.

P.S.: Please support me, thank you everyone.

P.S.: Please give me lots of flowers and ratings!

Chapter 46 Meng Yu Threatens Gao Qilang (Seeking Support, First Update)

At the dinner table, the group chatted and laughed, but each of them harbored their own ulterior motives.

Xu Lei was merely the matchmaker; Meng Dehai understood the path Xu Lei had chosen for him—in short, using shady performance to elevate himself.

With Xu Lei's investment in building factories, Meng Dehai's power will only increase.

Now Zhao Lidong has to spend more time chatting with Meng Dehai.

Even if he is investigated later, it won't implicate Xu Lei, because Xu Lei did nothing.

He didn't give himself anything either.

Gao Qiqiang's actions can be seen as a pledge of allegiance, while Meng Dehai can eliminate two criminal gangs in one fell swoop.

There's no need to give up such merit.

Meng Yu said, "Qi Lan, go to the kitchen, there's one more dish, could you help me with that?"

Gao Qilan nodded.

The two went into the kitchen, and Meng Yu immediately picked up a cleaver and started cutting cucumbers.

"He really is going to put on an act. Don't think that Xu Lei can't see through your little schemes."

Gao Qilan said, "Sister Mengyu, what are you talking about? I don't know anything about it."

"Don't know? I don't know if you really don't know, or if you're pretending, or if you're just playing innocent with me. I've seen plenty of two-faced people like you at school."

At that time, green tea was still a beverage. If the term existed, people would definitely criticize Gao Qilan for using green tea.

Gao Qilan took out her glasses from her pocket and put them on.

He then took out a butterfly knife and played with it in his hand.

“My family was bullied from the very beginning, and I have never allowed anyone to bully me since I was a child.”

Meng Yu was startled.

"Xu Lei knows what I'm like. He likes me, so what? I just like Xu Lei and I admire him. Is that wrong?"

Meng Yu picked up the kitchen knife and said, "So what if you can use a butterfly knife? Are you trying to scare me?"

Gao Qilan threw the knife directly on the table and said, "If you don't like me, kill me now. If you don't have the courage, then keep it to yourself."

Gao Qilan was unaware of Chengcheng and Chen Shuting's affair. In her eyes, Chen Shuting was the first one to arrive.

Then I must establish my position.

She wasn't the boss in the university dormitory at first, but now, most people have to watch her eyes and do what she says.

Meng Yu said, "I'm just making sure you won't harm Xu Lei. If you really like him, I won't interfere. But if you pin Gao Qiqiang's matter on Xu Lei, I'll kill you all."

Gao Qilan said, "That's impossible. Xu Lei isn't stupid, and neither is my brother."

Meng Yu nodded.

Gao Qilan took off her glasses, put them in her pocket, then took Meng Yu's arm and said, "Let's go."

Meng Yu suddenly laughed and said, "We will be good sisters."

"of course."

After the two came out, they saw that Gao Qiqiang looked very uncomfortable.

Seeing the two getting along well, Xu Lei gave them a thumbs up.

Cow batch.

Surprisingly, a fight didn't break out.

A mature woman will be tolerant of you having other ambiguous relationships.

But a young woman might take a pair of scissors and chop you up.

Meng Dehai said, "I won't help you. I'll only come when the results are in."

Xu Lei took a sip of baijiu. Hmm, it tastes good.

Gao Qiqiang said, "But Bai Jiangbo's backing is too powerful; I might not be able to compete with him."

Meng Dehai said, "You've got one thing wrong. Whether the Mangcun project is secured or not has no impact on me. Whether it develops well or not just depends on how well I manage it, that's all."

Gao Qiqiang was in a dilemma.

This guy is telling me outright that it's free.

Xu Lei said, "Uncle Meng, stop teasing him."

Meng Dehai said, "Compared to you, I'm far behind. I don't understand what we want at all. It's too tiring to talk about it. What I mean is, Mang Village must be developed well, it must be lively, and it must have results, understand?"

Gao Qiqiang understood instantly and said, "I understand. Don't worry, that's for sure."

"Since Xiao Lei trusts you and brought you here, I'll give you a phone number."

"This is Gong Kaijiang's phone number. He's in charge of the progress in Mangcun. If Li Youtian gets the documents, there's nothing you can do."

Gao Qiqiang was stunned and said, "Then, isn't this a dead end?"

Xu Lei said, "I think the area around Mang Village can be developed into a development zone. I can make a phone call to a few leaders."

After saying that, Xu Lei picked up the phone and dialed Mayor Zhang's number.

"Mayor Zhang, what are you busy with?"

"A lot of things have happened. What's wrong? Is someone giving you trouble?"

"Who would dare? Mayor Zhang, the area under your jurisdiction is quite safe. You don't know how scared I was when I went to Green Vine the other day. It's much more chaotic there than here."

"You're so good with words, you must want something from me, right?"

Xu Lei said, "It's nothing major, just a suggestion. I heard that Mang Village is being developed. I think we should develop several nearby villages together and make it a large district, right? Otherwise, if it's just one village, the other villages will easily get envious."

"That's too big."
