Chapter 314 Lost all face
Huo Wuji, who was about to walk out of the door, suddenly stopped. He stood there for a long time before turning his head to look at Ichiro Tanaka who was anxiously staring at his back. He slowly said, "Didn't Mr. Tanaka always know what our Huo family needs most? For so long, Mr. Tanaka has never helped our Huo family. Even the black iron needle auctioned in Hong Kong fell into the hands of Li Yiyi, which made me lose face in front of those old guys in the Huo family."
Tanaka Ichiro's mouth twitched, and he thought for a long time before speaking, "Okay, I promise you, I will help you get what you want, and you also have to help me deal with Li Yiyi."
"I can only say that I will help you secretly. I cannot help you openly. After all, if we cooperate with Country R and cause displeasure from above, our Huo family may be destroyed in China in a matter of minutes." Huo Wuji laughed coldly.
Ichiro Tanaka looked at him angrily. After the two of them had been deadlocked for several minutes, he finally gave in and had to compromise, "Okay, let's do as you say. Your Huo family will secretly help our Qianjin Corporation."
After the two parties reached a cooperation agreement, Huo Wuji did not stay here for long. He quickly got into the car parked outside and left.
Li Yiyi had no idea what was happening here. At that time, she had already returned to Liu Yuan with Jiang Hong.
The couple had just returned and hadn't even warmed up their seats when they saw Ms. Linda, Mr. Liu's assistant, find them and say that Mr. Liu had a call and wanted them to go and answer it.
When the young couple heard what she said, they looked at each other and a possibility flashed through their minds at the same time. Could it be that what they did in the port city had reached the ears of the leaders in the inland so quickly?
If this is true, I don’t know whether this call is good or bad.
The young couple didn't have much time to catch their breath, and soon followed Linda to the small manor where Mr. Liu was recuperating.
When they came over, Mr. Liu was talking on the phone with his boss. He said with a smile on his face, "Don't worry, boss. I trust Dr. Li's medical skills. If it weren't for Dr. Li this time, I would have a hard time holding on to my life."
"Yes, yes, don't worry, leader. I will take care of Dr. Li's safety. I promise that no one will dare to touch her in Gangcheng." When Liu Laogang said this, he saw the young couple brought in by Linda.
"Leader, Doctor Li and Comrade Jiang are here." At this time he said to the leader on the other end of the phone.
Immediately afterwards, Li Yiyi, who had just entered, saw Mr. Liu handing the phone to her the next second.
When Mr. Liu saw Dr. Li with her eyes wide open, he couldn't help but laugh softly. He was used to seeing Dr. Li looking calm, and now he suddenly saw her looking frightened, which was indeed a bit novel.
Li Yiyi looked at Mr. Liu nervously. When she picked up the phone, she did not speak to the person on the other end of the line immediately. Instead, she covered the microphone with her hand and looked towards Mr. Liu, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Liu, is the leader angry or happy?"
Mr. Liu smiled at her calmly and said nothing.
Seeing this, Li Yiyi had no choice but to take her hand off the phone despite her tingling scalp and said to the person on the other end, "Hello, leader. I'm Li Yiyi. I'm very happy to talk to you on the phone. If you have any instructions, please tell me. Li Yiyi will definitely go through fire and water and will never refuse."
Just when she was wondering if the words she had said to express her loyalty were enough, she suddenly heard an old man's laughter coming from the other end of the line.
"Doctor Li, I didn't expect that you are not only an excellent doctor, but also such a great talker." Soon the old man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Li Yiyi listened to the laughter coming from the other end of the phone, and the heart that had been hanging in her throat was finally relieved. The corners of her mouth also rose, "Leader, you are too kind. I have no choice but to do this. I have already said everything I can think of to express my loyalty. If you hadn't laughed just now, I would have been at a loss for words."
There was another voice coming from the other end of the phone, but this time the tone sounded a bit serious. Li Yiyi, who was about to laugh the next second, immediately stood up and listened, "Yes, the leader's criticism is absolutely right. I must be careful in the future and won't mess around again."
Soon, the leader on the other end of the phone criticized him and then gave him a sweet treat, "But you did the right thing this time. If it is a drug that harms people, you should let everyone know about it. It's just that you didn't consider your own safety. Don't be so reckless next time. Do you understand?"
"I understand, leader, don't worry, I will seriously consider it next time before doing things." Li Yiyi knew that the matter was over, so she quickly made the promise.
After the two chatted on the phone for a few more minutes, the leader on the other end of the phone asked to give the call to Jiang Hong.
Jiang Hong, who had been waiting by the phone, saw his wife handing the phone to him. He immediately stood up and took it. Then he stood there straight and finished the call.
Li Yiyi had been observing his expression from the side, but this man was too good at hiding things, so she had no chance to see anything from his face.
She originally wanted to ask him what the senior leader had said to him as soon as he hung up the phone, but seeing that Mr. Liu and others were there, she had to suppress this thought.
Old Liu looked at the young couple with a smile and comforted them, "Don't worry, the leader is just concerned about your safety. In fact, he approves of what you are doing."
After answering the phone this time, Li Yiyi realized that the big boss was not actually that angry. She could tell from his words that the big boss was actually quite happy about what she had done.
"After what happened today, I'm afraid Ichiro Tanaka will take measures to retaliate against you. They don't have the opportunity to do so in Liu Yuan, but I'm afraid he will send someone to do it when you go out. So, when you go out next time, I will send five bodyguards to follow you. Do you have any objection to this?" Old Liu asked the young couple in a negotiating tone.
"No objection." This time, the couple answered in unison.
Jiang Hong agreed with Mr. Liu's arrangement. Although he could also protect his wife, his ability was limited. Sometimes, if the enemy was cunning and distracted his attention, he couldn't imagine the consequences.
The young couple talked to Mr. Liu for a while before leaving.
As soon as they got out of here, Li Yiyi took Jiang Hong's hand and asked him what the leader said to him last.
"He didn't say anything. The leader just told me to protect you well and not let those people from Country R hurt you." Jiang Hong answered the question while looking straight ahead.
