Chapter 684 Let’s Bet Again
If a TV sets catches fire, you must not pour water on it. Instead, you should cut off the power supply and cover it with a quilt to put out the fire. When putting out a fire, you can only approach the TV from the side to prevent the picture tube from exploding and injuring people.
Although the TV has not caught fire, it is smoking, so it is more likely to explode or burn.
After doing all this, Lin Yuehao immediately helped Zhang Meiyu, who was so frightened that her whole body was weak, to move away. Seeing that Lin Lijuan did not move, although he resented her, he still reminded her: "Why don't you retreat quickly? Do you want to be blown to death?"
Hearing this, Lin Lijuan stumbled back away from the TV.
"Aunt, you are not living a happy life, do you want our family to be unhappy too?" Originally, Lin Yuehao still sympathized with Lin Lijuan and had no objection to her living in the Lin family, but now, he was very dissatisfied.
Although we know that she was provoked and did not do it on purpose, it does not mean that it was not intentional and the damage caused can be recovered.
Lin Dechang happened to come back at this time and heard Lin Yuehao cursing outside the door, so when he came in, he scolded Lin Yuehao without asking the reason: "Lin Yuehao, what's wrong with you? How can you talk to your aunt like that!"
He knew that the atmosphere at home had been bad since Lin Lijuan came, but given Lin Lijuan's current situation, he had no choice but to accommodate her.
However, just as he finished speaking, Lin Dechang smelled a foul smell of thick smoke. His brows immediately frowned and he asked, "What's going on? Why is there a smell of smoke?"
Then, Lin Dechang's eyes fell on the TV. He was startled and asked, "What's going on?"
"Just now, the launch of Gu Ning's jewelry brand suddenly appeared on TV. I don't know what happened to my aunt. She smashed the TV with an ashtray." Lin Yuehao said, looking at Lin Lijuan unkindly.
Hearing this, Lin Dechang's face changed. He looked at Lin Lijuan with an unpleasant expression and said coldly, "Lin Lijuan, I know you are in a bad mood, but don't make trouble here! You are not a child. Don't you know how dangerous it is to smash the TV? How dare we keep you like this?"
Yes, Lin Dechang developed a sense of crisis, fearing that Lin Lijuan would do something bad, such as burning the house or turning on the gas, and they would all be buried with her!
Lin Lijuan's mind was in a state of confusion. After hearing what Lin Dechang said, she immediately rushed out of the door in anger.
"You..." Lin Dechang was angry at Lin Lijuan's behavior, but he had no intention of chasing her: "Forget it, let her go."
Although Lin Dechang didn't mind Lin Lijuan staying in the Lin family, it didn't mean that he felt sorry for her. He wasn't worried about her leaving. He just let her be.
Gu Qingxiang's company can no longer operate as there are several unfinished renovation projects pending. The salary payment date is approaching but he does not have enough money to pay the salaries.
Now, Gu Qingxiang is almost at his wit's end and is extremely depressed.
The Lin family is just a small-capitalist family and cannot help Gu Qingxiang. Besides, now that this has happened, Lin Dechang doesn't want to help anymore.
Gu Qingxiang had completely offended Gu Ning and others, the only people who could help him, so naturally they would not help him anymore.
Now, Gu Qingxiang plans to sell the house and then see if he can make the money back.
Gu Ning was about to eat, but at this moment, his cell phone rang.
Gu Ning looked at the caller ID, then stood up and walked aside to answer the phone.
"Ms. Gu, I thought you would call me to thank me after you received my gift!" Qi Tianlin's sarcastic voice came from the other end of the phone, revealing dissatisfaction and accusations.
Yes, the person who called was Qi Tianlin.
Qi Tianlin thought that after receiving his gift, Gu Ning would call to express her gratitude, and invite him to dinner, etc. Earlier, he understood that she was busy, but even at this point, Gu Ning had no intention of calling him to thank him.
Qi Tianlin didn't really need these words of thanks, but he was unhappy about being ignored by Gu Ning and he wouldn't accept it without an explanation.
Hearing this, Gu Ning just remembered this, but he didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he followed his words and thanked him, "Thank you for the gift, Boss Qi."
“······”
It was an apparently normal sentence, but it made Qi Tianlin choke, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
However, Qi Tianlin's reaction was also quick. He said with understanding and dissatisfaction: "You only said it after I reminded you. It's too insincere."
Gu Ning's mouth twitched, and he asked, "Then how can we be sincere?"
"Let's bet again," Qi Tianlin said, still unwilling to give up.
"Okay, but I don't look down on small bets!" Gu Ning curled his lips. There was no reason to refuse the money that was delivered to the door.
"You don't want 3 billion for one round, do you?" Qi Tianlin's voice was a little heavy. Although 3 billion was nothing to him, it was still money! Money that could do a lot of things! He was still very reluctant to use it to gamble a round.
"You don't need that much, one hundred million per game is enough." Although Gu Ning wants to win money, he can't go too far. Are you sure that one hundred million is really not a lot?
"Okay, deal." Qi Tianlin agreed readily. Although 100 million is not a small amount, it means he can play more games. He doesn't believe that he will lose every time.
"But wait until I'm done with my work these few days." Gu Ning said again.
"Okay." Qi Tianlin also knew that Gu Ning was busy at the moment, so he did not force him.
After hanging up the phone with Qi Tianlin, Gu Ning called Situ Ye to express his gratitude, otherwise he would have the same idea as Qi Tianlin! "Sister, are you done?" Situ Ye asked with concern as soon as he received Gu Ning's call.
Compared to Qi Tianlin, Situ Ye was more considerate, so he didn't feel any dissatisfaction because Gu Ning took so long to call to thank her. No, even if she didn't call, Situ Ye wouldn't have any dissatisfaction. Instead, he was concerned about whether she was busy and tired today.
"Yes! I'm done. I was very busy today, so I only have time to call you now. Brother Situ, thank you for your gift." Gu Ning said.
"You're welcome," said Situ Ye.
The two of them chatted for a few minutes and then hung up. Gu Ning returned to the restaurant and had dinner with everyone.
After the meal, everyone sat for a while and then left.
Originally, Xu Jingchen wanted to organize a group to go play together, but Gu Ning had other things to do, so he didn't go, and the others went on their own.
As soon as they left, Gu Ning told Gu Man about Tang Haifeng. Gu Man was shocked, but felt relieved after knowing that everything was fine.
"Should we go and take a look?" Gu Man asked.
Now, when facing Gu Ning, Gu Man no longer has her own opinions and has to get Gu Ning's opinion on everything.
