The entire process of getting the fish soaked was incredibly fast.
Tang Li finished cleanly and decisively, with the sound of the cup being slammed onto the table.
By the time Lu Zhixing and Shen Yu reacted, Tang Li had already crossed his arms.
"Lu Zhixing".
Shen Yu shouted.
"You should control your woman."
It's the dead of winter, the first night of the Lunar New Year, and the cold wind is howling outside.
Shen Yu was shivering from the cold.
"Lu Zhixing, you son of a bitch, it's a favor for me to help you, and it's my right not to. I've always been upright and honest, and I've never betrayed my brothers."
This baby has a temper too!
After Shen Yu finished howling, he shivered again, just like a drowned dog, shaking off the water from his body.
Lu Zhixing smiled faintly:
"Isn't that great? She cured your stutter; you should be thanking her."
He really hasn't stuttered anymore.
Tang Li and Lu Zhixing maintained the same smile and waved their hands generously:
"We're all friends, no need for thanks, just pay the bill later."
What kind of bandit friends are these?
Shen Yu looked miserable:
"Lu Zhixing, can you even control her? Are you henpecked at home?"
“Not only at home, but I’m also henpecked when I’m away from home,” Lu Zhixing said casually.
OK.
Shen Yu accepted his fate.
"It's on me, you two can eat your fill."
Just eat your fill.
Who would do something as stupid as overeating?
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Tang Li and Lu Zhixing tacitly put down their chopsticks, wiped their mouths, and then pushed the table full of food in front of Shen Yu:
"You ordered it, so eat more."
With tears in his eyes, Shen Yu finished off ten skewers of large kidneys.
Then we can get back to the main topic.
"Shen Yu, I need to trouble you with something," Lu Zhixing said.
Shen Yu, who was about to eat oysters, got up and left.
"After it's done, she'll help you settle that deal with the Huo family."
The Huo family?
Huo Chenyu?
Shen Yu quickly turned around, sat down, and continued eating oysters: "What trouble? We're brothers, no need for formalities. I like trouble, so what is it?"
This person's face changes faster than turning the pages of a book.
Just as Lu Zhixing was about to speak, Shen Yu seemed to have thought of something, reached out to stop him, and looked at Tang Li.
"Can you really handle that order for me?"
Tang Li leaned slightly closer to Lu Zhixing, and whispered in his ear:
"Is there anything that Shengrong can't provide? Why does it have to be the Huo family?"
Lu Zhixing replied to her:
"Shengrong has a rule: when it comes to feelings, there is no business; when it comes to interests, there are no brothers."
Everything must be pure.
All right.
They've already made those boastful claims.
Even if you can't, you have to be able to.
Tang Li reluctantly agreed.
At 1 a.m. on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Shen Yu risked everything to pull his friend out of his boudoir for that order.
The two people sat down in front of Lu Zhixing and Tang Li.
As soon as Wu Xiaodong saw Tang Li, he tried to run away.
Shen Yu brought him back.
"Sit still. Do you know who she is?"
Who doesn't know the name Tang Li?
She's Huo Chenyu's ex-wife.
This is a powerful figure, not someone to be trifled with.
But he wanted to run away not only because she had the title of Huo Chenyu's ex-wife, but also because she was the second young lady of the Tang family.
They definitely want to investigate Tang Yuan's affairs.
"I signed a confidentiality agreement regarding Tang Yuan. Shen Yu tried to get information out of me, and he knows I won't say a word."
Wu Xiaodong took the initiative.
Shen Yu also said, "I did sound him out, and he was very tight-lipped."
Tang Li had anticipated this.
She sat up straight and smiled slightly.
"Mr. Wu, the purpose of a confidentiality agreement is that everyone wants to protect their own interests, but what if someone doesn't benefit from it? Do you think there's still a need for a confidentiality agreement?"
Tang Li waved the confidential list in his hand:
“I will question everyone on this list. I, Tang Li, am not one to get something for nothing. You can provide any valuable clues at a price.”
First, they made a small threat, then offered some benefits.
It's a classic case of giving someone a slap followed by a sweet treat.
Shen Yu nodded hurriedly and said:
“I can testify to this. Miss Tang has already taken care of the deal I’ve been trying to sign with the Huo family.”
It's good to have the Huo family's backing.
Wu Xiaodong was shocked. When he looked at Shen Yu, his eyes were full of doubt, as if asking, "This woman is now an ex-wife, how can she still have such great abilities?"
In that case, those who understand the times are the wise ones.
Wu Xiaodong also stated:
"The land that the Huo family just acquired is located near a subway station, a good location, and will definitely have a lot of foot traffic in the future."
Seeing that Wu Xiaodong was still a little hesitant, Shen Yu helped him by saying:
"He wants to move the company's new location there."
Indeed, businessmen are profit-driven and won't act until they see a clear benefit.
Tang Li readily agreed:
"Okay, no problem."
At this moment, Huo Chenyu, the wronged soul who hadn't slept yet even though it was late at night, suddenly sneezed twice.
First, think; second, scold; third, catch a cold.
It seems someone is criticizing him.
In the food stalls.
Tang Li and Lu Zhixing worked together seamlessly.
One of them plays the stern, conciliatory role.
The other one plays the bad cop.
Lu Zhixing asked with a smile, "Now it depends on whether President Wu can provide any valuable clues?"
Regarding what happened that night.
Wu Xiaodong thought for a moment:
"That day, Mr. Tang drank a couple more glasses. Although red wine has a strong aftereffect, it shouldn't have made him that drunk. When I went to the restroom, I saw Mr. Tang staggering towards Ruoshui Room. He went in a few seconds after the door opened, but was pushed out. Then the door to Ruoshui Room was locked, and the person inside never opened it again."
