"what's wrong with you!"
A thug shouted, "You can't even hold a dish properly, you good-for-nothing!"
Xiao Tao knelt down with a thud, bowing her head and apologizing desperately: "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to, please forgive me this time!"
The man was about to start cursing again when Tiger waved his hand and said, "Alright, it's just a vegetable that got smashed. Don't stand here and bother us. Get lost!"
Xiao Tao felt as if she had been granted a pardon, and she got up and ran away.
Then I went straight to the restaurant owner and asked for leave.
The boss knew she was introduced by Li Weidong, so he didn't make things difficult for her and granted her leave directly.
Xiao Tao ran home as soon as she left the restaurant, but after only a few steps, she turned around and headed straight for Li Weidong's company.
After rushing all the way, by the time I arrived at Li Weidong's company, I was already out of breath.
The security guard initially refused to let her in, but he happened to run into Shen Xiaoyan, who then led her into the company.
"Are you looking for Wei Dong?"
Shen Xiaoyan frowned: "He didn't come to the company today."
Now that Zhou Xiaoye has finished her college entrance exams and doesn't need to go to school anymore, Li Weidong rarely comes to the company anymore, and spends most of his time at home with Zhou Xiaoye.
Xiao Tao grabbed Shen Xiaoyan's hand, her face pale: "Boss Shen, you...you take me to find Brother Weidong, okay?"
"Where is he? Take me to him quickly, or it will be too late!"
Hu Zi has gathered so many people to deal with Li Weidong. She doesn't know when he will make his move, so she has to tell Li Weidong this news as soon as possible.
Shen Xiaoyan frowned: "What's so urgent? Tell me first."
Xiao Tao refused to speak, only saying, "Anyway, it's something very, very important. I can only tell Brother Wei Dong. Please take me to him!"
Seeing the fear on her face, Shen Xiaoyan hesitated for a moment, but still agreed: "Okay, then I'll call him and ask where he is now!"
After learning that Li Weidong was at home, she drove Xiao Tao back to Taohuayu.
Throughout the journey, Xiao Tao's complexion remained pale and bloodless, and she curled up in a ball, clearly quite frightened.
Shen Xiaoyan was curious, but knew she wouldn't get an answer, so she quickened her pace.
Soon, the two arrived at Li Weidong's house.
When Zhao Xiulian saw Xiao Tao, she was startled: "You child, why is your face so pale? Are you sick?"
Xiao Tao shook her head and craned her neck to look at Li Weidong inside the house: "Brother Weidong, something terrible has happened!"
"What's up?"
Li Weidong frowned.
Xiao Tao hesitated for a moment before saying, "I... I'm only telling you about this."
It wasn't that she didn't trust others, but the matter was extremely important and she couldn't afford to let even the slightest information leak out.
Li Xiaoli was somewhat dissatisfied: "Sister Xiaotao, what can't we hear? Why do we have to talk to my brother alone? Are you going to confess your feelings to him?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than he was struck on the head.
"You brat, you're spouting nonsense again!"
Zhao Xiulian said irritably, "Your Sister Tao must have something on her mind. If you keep talking nonsense, see how I deal with you!"
She could tell that Xiao Tao was so frightened; something serious must have happened.
Li Weidong had also thought of this, so he took Xiao Tao into the room and closed the door before asking, "What exactly happened?"
Xiao Tao lowered her voice and told the whole story about the restaurant.
Finally, she exclaimed in terror, "Brother Weidong, he's hired dozens of people; he definitely wants to kill you! What should we do?!"
Li Weidong laughed: "Finally couldn't hold back anymore?"
Last time, when Hu Zi went to see Liu Xiaohong, Liu Xiaohong told him everything in order to please him.
The hatred in Tiger's heart has probably reached its limit and is about to explode.
"Brother Weidong, aren't you scared?"
Xiao Tao's eyes widened: "He brought so many people, if they really start fighting..."
"I'm just waiting for him to make his move!"
Li Weidong smiled and took out another hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it over: "Thank you for making this trip. Take this money and buy some canned food to calm your nerves. Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Xiao Tao refused to accept the money: "Brother Weidong, you helped me find this job, and my parents are even helping you grow vegetables in the greenhouse. How can I take your money?"
"Here you go, just take it."
Li Weidong forcefully stuffed the money into her hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Tiger can't cause any trouble."
"Don't go to work for the next few days. I'll talk to the boss. Just stay home and rest for a while!"
Firstly, Xiao Tao was genuinely terrified. After all, a rural girl like her would be understandably shocked to suddenly be exposed to something like murder.
Secondly, he was afraid that if things were exposed, Hu Zi would find out about Xiao Tao and take revenge on her.
Xiao Tao couldn't refuse Li Weidong, so she had no choice but to accept the money, and repeatedly warned him, "Brother Weidong, you must be careful!"
Don't worry!
Li Weidong nodded: "I'll be fine."
After all, he had been waiting for Tiger to make a move for almost half a month!
After Xiao Tao left, Zhao Xiulian and the others gathered around, curiously asking what had happened.
Li Weidong shook his head: "It's nothing serious, don't worry."
"Why would she be so scared if nothing was wrong?"
Zhao Xiulian said irritably, "What exactly happened? If you don't tell us, we won't know what's going on."
Li Weidong had no choice but to say, "I can't say for now, you'll find out in a few days."
If they found out that Tiger was trying to assassinate them, what would happen?
Seeing that they couldn't get any answers, the group had no choice but to give up.
at night.
Zhou Xiaoye and Li Weidong were sitting in the courtyard enjoying the cool air when she suddenly spoke up: "Brother Weidong, if anything happens, please don't hide it from me, okay?"
"I want to face this with you."
Li Weidong turned his head and met her bright eyes. He couldn't help but reach out and pat her head, nodding and saying, "Okay."
Zhou Xiaoye didn't say anything more, but quietly nestled into his arms.
Li Xiaoli was watching TV in the room when she caught a glimpse of this scene and desperately tried to wink at Zhao Xiulian.
She pouted and said, "Mom, look at my brother and Xiao Ye, they get along so well!"
"It's good to have a good relationship!"
Zhao Xiulian smiled broadly, "Your sister-in-law is about to turn eighteen. If they have a good relationship, our family can have more members soon!"
The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.
...
After receiving the news from Xiao Tao, Li Weidong didn't stay idle; instead, he went to see Xing Guodong.
"Are they finally going to make their move?"
Xing Guodong breathed a sigh of relief: "After waiting for so long, he finally couldn't hold back anymore."
Then, she added with some concern, "He's hired so many people, are the two bodyguards you have enough?"
Li Weidong laughed and said, "If we don't have enough bodyguards, we still have you, don't we?"
Xing Guodong laughed and said, "That's true. Don't worry, you've worked hard to be the bait this time. Let's work together to catch all the big fish in one fell swoop."
