Chapter 39: The World of the Rich 10: No one would doubt that the inner voice would be a lie...
Shen Ci lowered his eyes slightly and looked at Li Yanze in front of him calmly.
There wasn't much emotion in his eyes, and his voice was light when he spoke, but precisely because of this, Li Yanze felt an unprecedented insult.
Because what Shen Ci said hit exactly his sore spot.
Compared to Shen Ci, who took over the family business as soon as he became an adult and dominated the Shen family in just a few years, Li Yanze also took over the Li family, but he was only the person in charge in name only. The real decision-making power of the company was still in the hands of Grandpa Li.
The old man also made it clear that letting Li Yanze take over the company now does not mean that he must be the final heir to the Li family.
Once Li Yanze does anything detrimental to the company, the heir can be replaced by any of his cousins at any time.
In the Li family, fighting openly or secretly is not a derogatory term. Everyone is working hard to make achievements and replace Li Yanze's position. Therefore, compared to Chen Ci, Li Yanze is not actually very secure in the position of domineering CEO.
This did affect his spending power to a certain extent, because most of the time, he had to use public funds to spend money.
That was a bill that many people were watching. If he wasn't careful, it could become a weapon to bring him down. So compared to Shen Ci, he really didn't have that much money to use at will.
In addition, at this moment, with the sound of a "ding" bell, the elevator door at the end of the corridor slowly opened to both sides, and then the assistant carrying large and small bags walked out, and behind him were dozens of black-clad bodyguards carrying various things like him.
“Boss Shen!”
The moment the assistant saw Li Yanze when he got out of the elevator, he realized that this might be a big drama about snatching the canary.
After all, when he helped Shen Ci arrange a private detective, he more or less learned some things about Mr. Song in Room 3601.
This naturally includes the fact that the other party was previously kept by Li Yanze.
As we all know, in the circle of domineering CEOs, it is not terrible to support the same person before. What is terrible is that after the contract ends, Canary says that you are more stingy than the other person!
This is a fatal insult to the boss!
So, after quickly sorting out the relationships between the people in front of him, the assistant's face turned stern, and then he tightened the shopping bag in his hand, as if it contained not clothes and shoes, but the latest weapon developed by Shen's company specifically targeting the Li family. While rushing straight towards 3601, he did not forget to raise his voice and said:
"Mr. Shen! These are the clothes and shoes you asked me to buy for Mr. Song. Of course, I also bought accessories, but the watch you liked is out of stock now, so I took a watch worth over two million yuan. Please make do with it for now, Mr. Song."
The assistant smiled and emphasized the number of more than two million.
He learned from the information that the condition Li Yanze gave for supporting Song Le'an was only a pitiful one million yuan, in addition to helping Song's mother with her illness.
One million.
In this inflationary novel, he can't even get a supporting male role!
Unlike his boss, just a watch is enough to beat Li Yanze eight hundred times.
This is just what Shen Ci gave it to her on his own initiative, and the maintenance fee and so on have not been calculated yet!
The assistant, carrying large and small bags, walked up to Shen Ci in a heroic and arrogant manner, and then, as if he had just discovered Li Yanze, he said "Oh" in a very artificial way.
"Boss Li?!"
"Hello, hello. I'm sorry that I was too busy and blocked my view. I didn't see you. I wonder if you have anything to do with Mr. Shen?"
Li Yanze: "..."
It is true that like master, like dog.
Shen Ci's assistant is as annoying as Shen Ci.
Li Yanze was extremely angry, but he laughed instead.
"She's just a lover. Only you, Shen Ci, are willing to worship her like an ancestor."
It’s a watch worth more than two million yuan. Does Song Le’an deserve it?
He has given the other person a life that he could never have dreamed of before, and has taken him across several classes. Isn't that enough?
If it weren't for him, Song Le'an's mother would have died of illness long ago, and Song Le'an himself would definitely not have the life he has now.
He gave Song Le'an everything, but now he is betrayed by the other party!
Li Yanze stared at the boy standing next to Shen Ci, who didn't feel a bit of guilt towards him. He felt it was extremely ironic.
"Chen Ci," he said slowly, "Have you ever thought that if he chooses to betray me because of you today, one day in the future, someone else will choose to betray you."
Li Yanze thought that even if what he said would not make Shen Ci give up Song Le'an immediately, it would at least leave a hidden danger in his heart, reminding him all the time that the boy next to him was an ungrateful person who was greedy for money.
However, when Shen Ci heard this, he didn't even frown, and just said lightly,
“Only the weak worry about the future.”
Why should he worry about whether the boy will leave him in the future because of something that hasn't happened yet?
Not to mention that the relationship between the two of them has not reached the point of discussing those things. Even if it has, Shen Ci has enough money to make the boy give up the idea of leaving him.
Moreover,
"Since you think he's just a lover and are unwilling to worship him as an ancestor, then what's the point of you being here?"
Li Yanze: "..."
He was a little speechless. Fortunately, at this time, Zhou Luoluo stepped forward to help him explain.
"I begged Brother Ze to come here. I want to apologize to Le An for what happened before."
As she spoke, Zhou Luoluo looked at Chu Sicheng with tears in her eyes, and then repeated the tea talk she had just had in front of Li Yanze in front of Chen Ci.
"...I really shouldn't have interfered. After all, Le An has taken care of Brother Ze for such a long time, and he must know Brother Ze's taste better than I do. I was wrong..."
Zhou Luoluo stared at Chu Sicheng and blinked twice, watching a crystal clear tear slide down from the corner of his eye. When he spoke again, his voice was filled with tears, as if he was extremely humble.
"Le'an, I'm really sorry, please forgive me."
If you only look at the surface, Zhou Luoluo seems to be apologizing to Chu Sicheng sincerely.
But in fact, when he was crying and begging for forgiveness from Chu Sicheng, almost at the same time, everyone present heard another voice that was very similar to his voice.
[It's okay, Zhou Luoluo. As long as Le An can calm down and return to Brother Ze, it's okay for you to suffer a little. But you absolutely cannot tell anyone about the time Le An poured hot water on you that night. He definitely didn't do it on purpose. He was just too angry. That's it!]
[So now you just need to admit your mistakes and help Brother Ze win Le An back! ]
“…”
The aggrieved voice, coupled with the saintly and naive remarks, can be said to have directly changed the expressions of most people present.
Some of them couldn't believe it because they heard Zhou Luoluo's voice for the first time and thought they were hallucinating. Others, like Li Yanze, had heard it many times. The look in their eyes when they looked at Zhou Luoluo was not as shocked as the assistants, but full of sympathy.
Zhou Luoluo, who suffered so much injustice and yet was able to apologize to the abuser for Li Yanze, is really pitiful.
They didn't doubt that what Zhou Luoluo had just said in her heart was a lie.
After all, a person's mouth may lie, but the expression from the heart will never lie.
For a moment, the bodyguards behind Li Yanze, including Li Yanze himself, looked at Chu Sicheng with a hint of dissatisfaction.
It was like he was accusing him of pushing people to this point, what else did he want to do?!
Li Yanze even felt that he had spoiled Song Le'an too much in the past, which was why he became so spoiled now.
Even the bodyguards beside the assistant began to whisper to each other as Zhou Luoluo kept talking. From time to time, they looked up at Chu Sicheng with strange eyes, as if they couldn't believe that their boss's first time supporting Canary was to support such a person with bad morals.
His boss's eyesight seems to be not so good...
In Zhou Luoluo's heart, the situation seemed to have ushered in a new reversal, but the advantage was neither on Chu Sicheng nor on Li Yanze, but on Zhou Luoluo, who had tears in her eyes and kept asking Chu Sicheng for forgiveness.
"Mr. Song, if you ask me, please forgive Young Master Zhou."
A bodyguard standing behind Li Yanze couldn't help but say, "He didn't do anything wrong..."
As soon as he said this, Zhou Luoluo, who had lowered his head, immediately curled up the corners of his mouth imperceptibly in a place where no one could see.
See, he said that no one could resist standing on his side after hearing his voice.
Because no one would have thought that the inner voice could also be a lie, just like they would never have thought that one day they would be able to hear the inner voices of others.
Seeing that, the bodyguards beside him began to support him. Li Yanze looked back with heartache and patted the back of his hand. Even Shen Ci, who had decided to stand next to the boy at the beginning, lowered his head and said nothing. Zhou Luoluo raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Sicheng proudly.
So, what’s the point of being able to seduce people?
According to his thoughts, no one would stand by Song Le'an!
He wanted the other party to be deserted by everyone and lose everything, just like he did in his previous life!
Zhou Luoluo was determined to discredit Chu Sicheng in front of Shen Ci, just like he had done before with Li Yanze. He wanted to see the boy stammering and explaining, but still no one believed his desperate look again.
However, this time, what he didn't expect was that Chu Sicheng did not rush to explain as usual in the face of his inner accusations, but just patted Shen Ci's shoulder lightly.
The latter did not start to doubt and reject the boy as he was sure of. Instead, after looking at the other party, she turned around and went back to the house. After a few seconds, she came back with a cup of steaming water.
The bluish-white porcelain cup was passed to Chu Sicheng by Shen Ci, and the next second, it was accurately poured onto Zhou Luoluo without leaving a drop.
Screams and exclamations were heard everywhere, making the originally high-end and luxurious hotel corridor look like a circus.
Then, amidst this bustle, Chu Sicheng curled his lips slightly, his smile bright and clean.
"Come, now listen to what the aggrieved Mr. Zhou said."
