Chapter 523 Above the Posing (58) [VIP]
Inside the pharmacy, Zhao Yinglai finally finished communicating with Aunt Qin from Team 1.
"Auntie Qin," she walked out of the room and nodded to the middle-aged woman, "This is all the information we have here for now. We are also exploring opportunities to restore your memories. If you have more memories in your minds after tonight, it means that our attempt was successful."
"Okay, thank you, Xiao Jiang," Aunt Qin nodded. The expression on her face was much calmer than when she first came in. She looked at Zhao Yinglai with a much gentler look. It can be seen that Zhao Yinglai has gained his trust during the communication during this period of time. "Then I will bring this news to them?"
"They may not believe it," Zhao Yinglai sighed half-truthfully, "After all, all of you got the address, but you, Aunt Qin, are the only one who actually came here."
She casually stirred up the relationship between the team members, and then, as if she was thinking about Aunt Qin, she added in a low voice: "But it doesn't matter. If they don't believe it, just let them come here and I will tell them."
It is still unknown what Aunt Qin has become after joining the foundation, but Aunt Qin, whose memory remains before the night her daughter was diagnosed with a serious illness, is just an ordinary middle-aged woman with an only daughter who just graduated. She just retired last year and has a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, which is no different from her peers.
Decades of life experience allowed her to easily tell that Zhao Ying's words were meant to sow discord, and the fact was that the other team members allowed Aunt Qin to come here first to take the risk. If the people in the pharmacy were hostile, Aunt Qin, who was the first to enter here, would undoubtedly die.
But there is no way.
Compared with other people who came here inexplicably, she couldn't afford to delay, and Aunt Qin was in a hurry to go back to see her daughter, so she could only muster up the courage to knock on the door of the pharmacy.
After exchanging information with Zhao Yinglai, Aunt Qin's inner tension and anxiety finally subsided.
After saying goodbye to Zhao Yinglai, she walked back in the direction she came from.
Zhao Yinglai watched Aunt Qin leave and roughly estimated that it would be impossible to make the members of Team 1 completely believe her. However, from Scarao and her point of view, as long as these people could believe her half, their goal would be achieved.
As Aunt Qin's figure disappeared around the corner, Zhao Yinglai stretched his stiff neck. When he turned his head, he saw Skao and Wen Qi sitting face to face.
Wen Qi was out of focus, and it was obvious that his consciousness was in another body, while Scario was playing with the disposable paper cup he had just used to drink water, as if he was playing with some precious jade or porcelain.
Against the backdrop of his slender and well-proportioned knuckles, the cheap disposable paper cup actually took on a sense of expensiveness.
Zhao Yinglai waved his hand in front of Wen Qi, and after confirming that she couldn't see him, he sat down next to Skao and said, "Hey, I'm done, where are you guys at?"
"The news of Lin Jianyu's death has spread. Zhang Weijing found the club where Chen Lei was and prepared to take him back. At the same time, she ordered him to behave himself and not affect her father's promotion." Bai Jinshu briefly summarized the current situation.
"Zhang Weijing... Oh, one of the two people who bullied Wen Qi," Zhao Yinglai reacted for a moment before remembering who this unfamiliar name was. "So now Chen Lei has been taken away by Zhang Weijing, what about Chen Lei's girlfriends and boyfriends that Wen Qi found?"
"No," Bai Jinshu smiled slightly, "It's impossible for Chen Lei to leave with Zhang Weijing?"
"Ah? Why?" Zhao Yinglai couldn't follow his train of thought.
"There are many reasons," Bai Jinshu explained casually, resting his chin on his hand, "and the most important one is self-esteem."
Wen Qi didn't say anything now, probably because one of Chen Lei's girlfriends hadn't arrived at the club yet.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, Bai Jinshu looked at Zhao Yinglai, who didn't quite understand what was going on, and explained compassionately: "The most important one is self-esteem."
Self-esteem represents a person's cognition of himself and the last bottom line of his daily behavior, and self-esteem is a very subtle psychology.
In order to maintain their self-esteem, people often make choices that are not conducive to their current interests.
That's Chen Lei.
Zhang Weijing and the driver searched more than a dozen places. She was already angry. Anyone who could bully classmates would naturally not be a gentle and amiable person, so when she found Chen Lei, she would definitely lose her temper.
So the first step was that Zhang Weijing broke into the club and drove away everyone in the box except Chen Lei, and humiliated Chen Lei in front of his friends and female companions.
So at this moment, Zhang Weijing broke his image and undermined his authority. On a psychological level, Chen Lei would uncontrollably turn her into his opposite and develop disgust and resistance towards her.
With this kind of psychology added, even though he knew that the current situation was critical and Lin Jianyu's death had put the big shot in a dilemma, his rejection and hostility towards Zhang Weijing would also reveal another message: that is, if he took her car back again, it would be equivalent to him approaching her and asking her to lose face a second time.
For a man who has been a child of destiny and grown up as "someone else's child", being humiliated is tantamount to challenging his self-esteem.
The self-esteem of being older, the self-esteem of being a man, the self-esteem of being superior.
As the elder, he has already graduated from college, while Zhang Weijing is still a fourteen or fifteen-year-old high school student. He thinks that he should be more mature and have a higher status than Zhang Weijing. As a male, he has a good family background and has been pampered since childhood. In his opinion, even if Zhang Weijing's family background is better than his, she is just a "girl". He cannot be suppressed by another "girl"; as a well-known academic master in the circle with excellent grades since childhood, Zhang Weijing is uneducated and unskilled. In his opinion, she can only be arrogant and domineering because of a good father. She has never been as good as him since childhood.
So even though the cause of Lin Jianyu's death had just been revealed and the entire circle centered on "big shots" needed to be humble, Chen Lei's self-esteem still did not allow him to be sent home in Zhang Weijing's car.
But the current situation is not good, and Chen Lei knows very well that he'd better keep a low profile and not cause any trouble during this period of time, otherwise when the truth comes out, even if the trouble he caused will not have any impact on the big shot, it will be enough to make their family lose the big shot's protection in the future.
So he would definitely choose to leave alone after Zhang Weijing left.
In order to save his face in front of those friends who were kicked out of the box, he would stagger the time of their departure as much as possible, and try not to let those people find out that he left the club in disgrace because Zhang Weijing had been there.
In other words, after Zhang Weijing left, Chen Lei would at least stay in the box for about half an hour.
This amount of time was enough for the first girlfriend Wen Qi called to arrive at the scene.
[Ah...Is that so? ]
[Fuck, it turns out that Aoshen calculated that Zhang Shasha would kick the door open, and also calculated that Chen Lei would not leave with her? ]
【Zhang Weijing.】
[No, we are all human. Did Skao have an extra brain when he was born? How did you calculate this?]
[It can be seen at a glance (not)]
[I feel like if I were to meet Skao in the real world, he would be able to tell me how much money I have in my bank account.]
[I feel like if I met Skao in the real world, he would be able to blurt out what I had for New Year's Eve dinner when I was eight years old, and how many rockets were set off.]
[I feel like if I were to meet Skao in the real world, he would be able to blurt out the current address and personal information of my second uncle's eldest son who was abducted by human traffickers before I was born.]
【? The friends above are really more exaggerated than each other. Aoshen is a human being, not a prophet. He only knows the people that Wen Qi described to him, and then he speculates their movements based on these descriptions. He doesn't know about people he hasn't seen, for example, Chen Lei's girlfriend who is about to arrive. 】
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Wen Qi's voice suddenly sounded: "Teacher, the girlfriend closest to the club is here."
"Well," Bai Jinshu nodded and looked at her, "argue with this person. The more intense the better. Make sure Chen Lei hears the content of your argument and realizes that two of the boats he was riding collided with each other."
It was strange what he said.
The original plan for tonight was to let these boyfriends and girlfriends clash with each other, and then wait for Chen Lei to appear and incite them to turn love into hate. But now Chen Lei has learned about Lin Jianyu's death, and he needs to keep a low profile. If he hears his boyfriends and girlfriends quarreling again, he will definitely choose to avoid the limelight temporarily.
Wouldn't this defeat the purpose of having the object of his affection accidentally kill him?
Zhao Yinglai was just wondering when he heard Wen Qi nod: "Okay, I understand, teacher."
"Don't leave yet. Wait a minute. There is another important point." Bai Jinshu tilted his head. "For this girlfriend, you need to arouse her emotions as much as possible. Make her as angry as possible."
"I understand." Wen Qi nodded. In the green belt, Wen Qi, who had changed his clothes and put on a mask, stood up again and watched the young woman in a red dress step into the door of the club.
This is one of Chen Lei’s girlfriends.
"Hello," the woman in the red dress reached out to stop a waiter, "Excuse me, is there anyone named Chen Lei who has booked a private room here tonight?"
"Let me think..." A trace of embarrassment appeared on the waiter's face.
Zhang Weijing had just left, and a few minutes ago, all the people in the box were kicked out. It seemed that something unusual had happened to Chen Lei tonight.
Now there was another person looking for him. The waiter hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head: "Sorry, we don't think we have any guests who order this."
"Are you kidding me?" The woman in the red dress raised her eyebrows. "When I came in just now, I heard someone outside calling his name."
"Well...it's possible that they have the same name." The waiter said Tai Chi.
"I know you guys are protecting the privacy of your guests," the woman in the red dress anticipated and opened a picture from the album, "This is a photo of the two of us. I'm his girlfriend, not an outsider. This should at least tell me which private room he is in, right?"
"Well..." The waiter looked around, "We really don't have anyone named Chen Lei here..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the woman in the red dress being pushed from behind by someone.
Then, a girl wearing a mask and sunglasses said angrily, "Who do you say you are?"
"Who are you..." The woman in the red dress staggered after being pushed by her. She held on to the table at the front desk to steady herself. She said in a bad tone, "Why are you hitting someone for no reason?"
"I'm going to hit you!" Wen Qi is 1.7 meters tall. When she stood up straight, she was slightly taller than the woman in the red dress wearing high heels. She cursed loudly and condescendingly, "I am Chen Lei's legal girlfriend. You interfered with other people's feelings. It's only natural for me to hit you!"
The voice was very penetrating, and gossip is human instinct. As soon as the voice fell, Wen Qi saw that the door of a box in the corridor was pushed open a little, and it was obvious that the person inside was curious.
It seemed that the whole corridor had heard these words now.
Wen Qi, who was shouting at the top of her lungs for fear that her voice wasn't loud enough and Chen Lei couldn't hear her, breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
At the same time, in a private room, Chen Lei, who was sitting in a booth with a frown on his face drinking, also heard the noise coming from outside the corridor.
