Chapter 417: Protecting Xiao officials is like protecting a calf
How to get the Li family through this difficulty is indeed the top priority at the moment.
The Li family vented a lot, and the old man spoke again, and gradually calmed down.
"The Xiao family filed a lawsuit, and Changshan bears the brunt of it. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape the charge of commercial fraud. It will take many years in prison." The old man of the Li family spoke slowly, with a sense of reassurance, "Changshan wants to escape. This calamity will be passed, unless the Xiao family withdraws the lawsuit."
"So now, I have no choice but to beg Mr. Xiao, to beg Xiao Li, and let them let you go. Changshan, Shiqing, I know that you are all good boys with backbone, but you are no better than others. When it's time to bow your head , you still have to bow your head."
"As for our Li family, the loss this time is irreparable. There are indeed mistakes made by the Li family. I, the Li family, admit it."
"Boss, you should contact those distributors to see if there is any room for improvement. If not, pay the liquidated damages that should be paid."
"As for what will happen in the future, it depends on the fate of the Li family."
Everyone in the Li family was okay listening to the front, but when they heard what was going on behind them, their faces turned blue and pale with shock.
"Dad! If you really admit it, our Li family will really be over!"
The old man of the Li family leaned on the back of his chair, waved his hands, and cloudy tears streamed from the corners of his eyes, "It's my fault, I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Li family. At this point, the Li family has nowhere to go. Let Chang Shan spend the rest of his life. That's fine, don't say any more, let's just leave it at that."
Xiao Changshan sat blankly on the sofa, looking at the tearful face of his old father-in-law, the pain in his heart became more and more intense, and at the same time, the guilt he felt made him almost out of breath.
It was his fault.
If he hadn't been too aggressive, how could he have hurt the Li family.
The Li family was originally a first-class family in the capital!
Marrying him because of poetry, marrying into Xiao's family, will bring a good big family to this point!
Xiao Li... that rebellious son, a beast!
Li Shiqing was already sobbing, she threw herself into Mr. Li's arms, hating Xiao Li, "Dad, I will never let our Li family collapse like this!"
...
The students of Jingdu International Middle School are mostly the children of wealthy families in the capital, and naturally they have heard about the affairs of the Xiao family and the Li family.
There is no shortage of people discussing the two companies on campus, and there are even related discussion posts on the campus website.
After school this day, after dinner and shower, Qian Nanyou also asked about the two in the dormitory.
"Ningning, did Xiao Li tell you anything about such a big matter? He really sued his father and wants to send his own father to jail?"
Qi Qi just came out of the shower, sat at his desk and wiped his hair, and frowned upon hearing the words, "If it's true, it must be his father who did something unforgivable. Xiao Li is not a naturally ruthless person."
"Look, you're still impatient. I only asked because I was concerned, but there are many rumors outside that Xiao Li is cruel and cold-blooded, and his relatives don't recognize him."
Tang Tang hesitated for a while, and said, "If the rumors continue to spread, the reputation of Xiao Li will not be good. Ning Ning, do you want to persuade him, maybe there is a more gentle solution?"
"No matter what the outsiders say, don't believe too much, I know Li Xiao, he is better than anyone else." Qi Qi pursed her lips, put down the dry hair towel, got up and went out.
Qian Nanyou yelled anxiously, "Where are you going? Are you really in a hurry with us? We only mentioned it out of concern. You should blow dry your hair anyway!"
"I'm going to find Xiao Li!"
The girl's words came in from outside the door, and the person had already walked a long way.
Qian Nanyou and Tang Tang met each other's eyes, "..."
"Tang, do you think there is something wrong with Ningning? Protecting Xiao officials is like protecting a calf."
"...idiot, you will only maintain it if you care."
"Fuck, you mean Ningning likes Xiao Li? Is she really here?!"
"There are many kinds of liking, it may not be love, you think too much."
"..." Well, Qian Nanyou didn't know whether to sympathize with Xiao Li for a while, "Ning Ning doesn't necessarily like Xiao Li, what about Xiao Li? I think he is really special to Ning Ning, he What kind of liking do you have for Ningning?"
Tang Tang raised his eyebrows, "Want to know? Go ask Xiao Li."
Qian Nanyou shut up obediently.
If she had the guts, she would have...or Qian Nanyou.
The days of late autumn are gradually getting shorter, and the dark is getting earlier and earlier.
It was just after six o'clock in the evening, and the afterglow in the sky was already dim.
Qiqi rushed directly to a class of classrooms.
It's not long before the evening self-study, Xiao Li should have arrived at school by this time.
There was a lot of noise in the classroom, and most of the students had already arrived, but there was no one in the place Xiao Li usually sat.
His tablemate Ning Zi is there.
Seeing the little beauty standing at the door of the classroom, Ning Zi's eyes lit up, and her eyes flashed with surprise.
"Song Si Ning, are you here to find Xiao Li?" Ning Zi smiled and moved to the door.
Qiqi nodded, "Has he not come to school yet?"
"Come on, I came with me, but Li Fengyao came to look for him just now, and they went out together. I didn't ask where they went. Would you like to wait for him to come back later and then come to look for him, or I will transfer the message to you." Did he come to see you in shift three?"
Ning Zi had a loud voice, and he didn't know how to lower the volume.
Many people in the first class have turned their eyes, gossiping too much.
Qiqi didn't want to be the object of others' comments, so she didn't say anything more, said thank you and trotted away.
On the roof of the building, the autumn wind blows, and the autumn wind becomes colder after nightfall.
Xiao Li and Li Fengyao stood opposite each other, one was cold and the other gentle, two completely different temperaments.
It's just that Li Fengyao is slightly inferior in momentum.
After all, the boy who is fearless and dismissive of everything is missing.
Because there is no capital to be dismissive.
"Xiao Li, now that things have gotten to this point, do you really want to continue? That's your own father, you really don't care about your family at all, you have to watch him go to jail and pay the price to be happy ?"
Li Fengyao looked at the boy who was slightly taller than him, with complicated eyes, "You should have heard what people in school say about you now. If you really want to continue, your reputation will not be much better in the eyes of outsiders , This is a situation where both sides suffer. Why do you have to do it so desperately? Can't you take a step back and leave some room for everyone to change?"
Xiao Li put his hands in the pockets of his coat, his expression remained unchanged, and he was not moved at all, "You asked me to come out to tell me this?"
"Xiao Li! This is a serious matter, a major matter, why do you always have such an indifferent attitude?"
"Is your purpose to intercede for Xiao Changshan, or for your Li family? The two of us know everything about what we are, and we know each other well. You don't need to put on such a dignified face in front of me. Or is your Li family, even the sanctimonious masks inherited from your ancestors?"
****************************************************************************************
Chapter 418: Song Sining, do you want to pick on me?
Li Fengyao's complexion changed slightly, and she roared sharply, "Xiao Li!"
"I asked you something, and you are not going to answer it? If you have to talk about him, then there is nothing to say." Xiao Li turned around and left without paying attention to the other party's anger.
"I beg for my uncle...and for my Li family!" Li Fengyao gritted her teeth.
Saying this sentence is equivalent to bowing his head in front of Xiao Li.
But if he doesn't tell the truth at this time, based on his understanding of Xiao Li, he knows that the other party really won't continue talking with him.
Xiao Li has enough capital to squander, and can be arrogant and domineering in the entire capital.
He has the confidence to look down on others.
The Li family was incomparable in front of him, so he could only bow his head.
How perverse the character of Xiao Li, the crown prince in the Beijing circle, is, Li Fengyao is the one who has learned the most.
The boy who had already walked two steps stopped and turned his head, and said in a cold and casual tone, "I refuse."
Li Fengyao bit the tip of her tongue, pulling her rationality through pain, "Are you really going to be so ruthless?"
Xiao Li turned around, paced slowly, and approached him, his dark eyes drooping slightly.
He said softly, "Li Fengyao, you really brought out the shamelessness of your Li family to the fullest."
"Now you stand here and accuse me of being cruel. When Li Zeye encouraged Xiao Changshan to dig a blood hole in my Xiao's house, did you accuse them of being greedy? No."
"Not only did not have any, but maybe I was looking forward to enjoying the vested interests."
"So what qualifications do you have to stand here now and talk to me in such a tone?"
"It wasn't your Li family who stretched out their hand too long first, so how could it be cut off by someone?"
"If you are really so righteous, you shouldn't be pleading with me here, you should go back and tell your Li family that you will always stare at the things in other people's bowls, and you will rot your mouth."
"Greed without sufficient strength will eventually be eaten back by greed!"
"As for Xiao Changshan, whether he will go to jail or not depends on whether he has done anything illegal. This is not decided by me, but by the law. My Xiao family doesn't want this kind of ungrateful stuff. Your Li family wants to pick it up and give it to you." you!"
"Xiao Li!" Li Fengyao was young after all, and his eyes were reddened by this series of sarcasm, "They are right, you are a cold-blooded and ruthless monster! I can't blame my aunt for saying that I wish I had never given birth to you!"
The wooden door on the roof was slammed vigorously, making a loud bang.
Li Fengyao went downstairs full of anger, and when she saw the beautiful girl standing quietly on the steps.
I don't know when she came here, and I don't know how much she listened to the conversation on the roof.
Standing in the dim light of the corridor, the girl was quiet, her dark and bright eyes were covered by the shadows, revealing the same coolness as late autumn.
Li Fengyao was stunned, tried her best to show a bitter smile at the girl, bowed her head and walked away quickly.
The twilight in the sky has dissipated, and the night is shrouded.
The boy was standing on the open rooftop, the wind was blowing around him, and the hem of his clothes was lifted.
Obviously such a tall young man, full of arrogance and unruly vigor, should be full of vigor.
At this moment, under the boundless night, he looked inexplicably lonely, his back was cold and desolate.
Qiqi deliberately stomped her footsteps heavily and loudly, and the sound of her footsteps shattered the silence of the rooftop.
"Xiao Li!" She trotted to the boy's side, looked at the dark sky side by side with him, then tilted her head slightly, raised her small face to look up at the boy.
The beautiful and refined little face, with a soft and warm smile, does not touch the darkness of the night.
Looking at the smiling face, Xiao Li felt a little chill in his heart.
After only a moment, he looked up at the sky again, with a casual and indifferent tone, "You heard all those words just now, do you also think I am a cold-blooded monster? Tell me straight, I don't hold your grudge."
"What kind of cold-blooded monster, those people are talking nonsense, they don't understand you at all. In my heart, no one is better than you." The girl's voice was crisp, piercing through the cold autumn wind, and fell into the boy's ears .
"Hey, you don't need to flatter me, it's as if you know me well."
"Who is currying favor with you? I, Song Qi...I, Song Sining, am the most reasonable person, and I never help my parents or my relatives!"
"Oh? Does that count as an assistant or a relative?"
"Helping the manager and helping the relative!" The girl straightened her waist, and slapped her chest with her small hands, "In my place, the kiss and the relationship are all yours!"
Xiao Li's dark eyes froze, and he lowered his head to meet the girl's bright eyes.
Those beautiful peach blossom eyes seem to be born with a smile, and there is a soft smile flowing in the eyes.
The lights of the teaching building in the distance reflected in her eyes, like a puddle of crushed stars, so beautiful that it was shocking.
Looking at those eyes blinking lightly, Xiao Li's heart seemed to be driven by the rhythm and beat.
"Song Si Ning," the young man raised his eyebrows casually, "Are you trying to pick on me?"
Qiqi, "..."
She raised her hand and slapped the boy's forehead hard, stomped her feet, and defended herself in anger, "Who wants to **** you, what nonsense! Think of something clean for me!"
Xiao Li covered the place where his forehead was hit, pretending to be fierce and gritted his teeth, "Song Sining, you have the guts to grow hair, dare to fight with me? What is wrong with my mind, please tell me clearly! What is it? called clean?"
"Study hard and make progress every day!" Before the girl left the rooftop, she stomped on his foot again, and slipped away immediately after a successful sneak attack.
It looks like there is a ghost chasing after him.
Xiao Li, "..."
"Fuck," Xiao Li gritted his back molars, and laughed angrily, "Why run? What can I do if I can eat you? It runs just like a chrysalis."
On the empty rooftop under the darkness of night, he was left alone again.
Just because of the girl's intrusion, the bleak loneliness that stayed on him before has quietly dissipated, leaving only a slight warmth in his heart.
He loosened his coat pocket and clenched his fist at some point, with a thin layer of sweat remaining on his palm.
A look of unnaturalness flashed in Xiao Li's eyes.
Made, he was so **** nervous just now.
He rubbed his palm casually on the jacket, wiped off the sweat stains, took out his cell phone and hung up the old man.
"Li Fengyao just approached me. This is the first time the Li family has tried. Next, Xiao Changshan and Li Shiqing should show up one after another."
"Thinking to kidnap me with morality, force me to stop and retreat, and then retreat without paying a penny, the Li family is daydreaming."
"Tell your subordinates well. If you bite them to death, you can't let go. No one will give face. The Li family won't last long. I want them to return the money that was dug out of my Xiao family's pocket, and I have to be respectful." Hold it in front of me with your own hands!"
"Old man, why do you talk so much? Aren't I going to attend classes at school and study hard and improve every day? It's okay, just hang up, and you can just explain it."
The bell for evening self-study has already rung.
The young man walked down the stairs slowly, his back was high and his steps were arrogant, and he returned to his surly prince.
Students, study hard and make progress every day.
************************************************************************************************
Chapter 419: Interview with Qiao Qiqi
Qi Qi sat on the seat, gnashing her teeth while earnestly brushing up on the questions.
The crimson color on Jue Li's face never fades for a long time.
【A rare rich man: Qiqi, are you sick? You're blushing so hard, I'll accompany you to the school infirmary after class? 】
Qiqi looked at the message that popped up on the phone and was silent for a long time.
She hasn't finished her evening self-study yet. Under normal circumstances, her roommates won't send messages to disturb her during class time.
Hiding the phone in the desk drawer, Qiqi secretly turned on the mirror function of the phone, and looked at her face with the dim light.
His face was red.
If Brother Goudan and Brother Huazi were here, they would have laughed at her monkey **** early in the morning.
Qiqi, "..."
【Eggy's Little Golden Rooster: Ke Neng's hair didn't dry out and he caught a cold, it's okay. 】
【It's a rare rich man: Did you blow the wind when you went to find Xiao Li? 】
Qi Qi snapped off the screen of the phone.
The heat on his face that had almost receded rose again.
The phrase "Are you trying to pick me up" echoed in my ears over and over again.
Eggy has never been so unreliable before!
This is distorting her friendship!
But she can't say that you used to be my system and I came here to repay you for being so kind to you.
Don't Eggy think she's crazy?
"Ah..." Qi Qi reached the desk, trying to knock her messy head sober.
Behind, Qiao Qiqi also noticed her strangeness, her eyes were dark, and the tip of the pen in her hand scratched a fierce scratch on the book.
Before self-study last night, Song Sining went to find Xiao Li. She heard her two roommates chatting.
Now look at that slut's charming daughter's behavior, if nothing ulterior motives happened, she would never believe it!
Qiao Qiqi stared coldly at the back of the girl in front of her with her head on the table, feeling jealous and hated.
She couldn't imagine what it would be like if Xiao Li liked someone.
Even if Xiao Li has seen with his own eyes how special Xiao Li is to Song Sining, he still cannot imagine it.
If such a proud son of heaven falls in love with someone, he will definitely give her many honors and auras that ordinary people cannot have, right?
Just being the prince's girlfriend is enough for a sparrow to perch on a phoenix branch and become noble.
When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Qiao Qiqi immediately got up and walked to the girl's desk.
"Song Sining, do you have time? I have something to tell you, can you come out with me?"
The familiar soft voice made Qiqi raise her head, with doubts in her eyes, "Qiao Qiqi? What's the matter with you? Can't you talk about it here?"
Qiao Qiqi bit her lip and looked around, "It's not convenient here, it won't take a lot of your time, okay?"
When it was time to end the get out of class, the class was full of noise, and there were still people playing and fighting in the classroom, so it was really not convenient to talk.
Qiqi thought for a while, got up and followed Qiao Qiqi, and left the classroom.
As soon as the two left, Qian Nanyou, who had been paying attention to their movements, immediately met Tang Tang, "Why is that peerless white lotus looking for Ningning?"
"She overheard what we said before, and looking for Ning Ning at this time probably has something to do with Xiao Li." Tang Tang whispered.
"Is she sick? She likes Xiao Li to chase after her by herself, but if she can't catch up, is she looking for Ning Ning's bad luck?"
"She doesn't dare to find bad luck, but she must have no good intentions."
...
Walking out of the noisy teaching building, my ears calmed down.
The autumn night is cool, and there are passing students coming and going in the dark corridors of the campus.
Walking to the side of the landscape lawn, there are stone tables and benches for people to sit.
Qi Qi followed Qiao Qiqi across the soft grass and sat down on the stone bench.
The silver moon in the sky is like a hook, the stars are sparse, and the light that shines down is dim and dim, making people's expressions unreal.
Qiqi listened to Qiao Qiqi's soft voice.
"Song Sining, since you came back from the grocery store last time, you seem to be not very close to me. Did I do something wrong to make you misunderstand?"
It is not difficult to hear the bewilderment and grievance from the other party's tone.
If you were an ordinary person, you might have to rush to explain a lot at this time.
Qiqi thought for a while and said, "Qiao Qiqi, why do you want to play with me? You are very popular in class and even in grades, and there are many people around you at all times. There should be no shortage of people like you. It's friends. You shouldn't be so wronged if I don't have one to go up and get close to you."
Qiao Qiqi was stunned, her eyes were momentarily dazed and caught off guard.
This reaction was different from what she had expected.
So much so that she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
After a while, she said unnaturally, "That's not what I mean. You just transferred to another school, and the newcomers in the class are not familiar with them, so after such a long time, there are still only two roommates with you. You play. I really want to have a good relationship with you, thinking that maybe I can help you integrate into our third class, so I took the initiative to invite you to go shopping at the canteen that day. But after that day, you treat me more and more The more alienated I am not saying that you have to play with me, I just can't figure out the reason, so I ask you, if there is any misunderstanding, I can explain it clearly."
"So it's because of this, you misunderstood." The girl smiled generously, "I didn't alienate you on purpose, it's just that I can't get in the way of what you usually talk about, and it's embarrassing to stand on the side, so I won't go up and gather .Besides, you also know that I can't afford to spend money because of my financial situation. I can't afford to go to places like commissaries. Thinking about it this way, we really don't have any places where we can go together, so everyone is just like usual, ordinary The students are in one place, the distance is the most suitable, are you right?"
Qiao Qiqi couldn't answer.
Maybe it's not that she can't answer, but that she doesn't know how to answer, because what Song Sining said is the truth.
She and the people around her usually get together and talk about current fashion trends.
For example, which piece of clothing is the latest model of the season, who bought a new platinum bag from a big brand, who has the most beautiful new lipstick color, etc.
The commissary is a place they usually like to go to.
Even if you don't have money to squander in your pocket, you still have to go shopping there, and then leave Shi Shiran, pretending that you didn't find something you like to eat this time.
Because they will go to the canteen, most of them are children of wealthy families.
Ordinary students stay there for a while, maybe they can meet a rich friend and make more connections for themselves.
Anyone who is ambitious in the school will never miss such a good place as the canteen.
It's just what they like, Song Sining doesn't care.
So much so that Song Sining's words made sense, but Qiao Qiqi couldn't find anything to refute.
"Is that so..." Qiao Qiqi lowered her head, smoothed her slender white fingers to smooth her hair that was blown by the evening wind, and pressed it behind her ears. When she raised her head again, her face was timid and unnatural, "In this case, I It's not too much to force. Just as I told you, we treat each other as ordinary classmates, but the distance is the most suitable. But if you need my help in the future, you can always find me, and I will definitely not refuse. "
