Chapter 1024 Why are you here?
When Li Junxin heard about the gift, he instinctively wanted to refuse it, but Li Hezhi said it was for his old lady, so it was not easy to refuse directly.
After all, it is normal for younger generations to bring gifts to their elders after traveling from afar.
"Let me thank you on behalf of the old lady." Li Junxin took the things with a smile and put them aside.
A servant came over to serve tea, and both sides lowered their heads to drink tea without saying anything else.
Both of them knew what the other was thinking at the moment, and for a moment the air seemed to be still.
Finally, Shizhu couldn't help himself and poked Li Hezhi with his hand, "Sir, the master's business..."
Li Hezhi raised his head and looked at Li Junxin, "Fifth Uncle, I'm sure you know why I came to see you, so I'll tell you straight away."
Li Junxin didn't wait for him to speak again, and said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Nephew, I know why you came to see me, but alas!"
He sighed before speaking, and then sighed and laid out all his difficulties, "You can see, I am now the president of the Hubei Chamber of Commerce, but this president looks glorious, but in fact, I am just a small soldier accepted by the Hubei Army."
"We came from the capital, and now we're on someone else's territory. We have to behave ourselves. To be honest, your fifth uncle can't sleep well at night. I dream all day that someone is going to harm our family!"
"Let's talk about my position. Countless people are watching me, waiting to see me make a mistake, so..."
What he said could only fool those who were inexperienced in the world. Shizhu looked at his rosy, energetic, and plump face, and found that he was not the person he described as the one who couldn't sleep well at night.
Li Hezhi understood Li Junxin's implication just by listening to his words - it was impossible to save Li Junyi, and he could not take risks with their branch Li family.
"Of course I understand your difficulties, Uncle Wu. But when your family came to Beijing, it was my father and mother who ran around to take care of you. After that, your business in Beijing also relied heavily on my father. Today, I don't ask for anything else, I just hope that Uncle Wu can find someone to help me meet my father."
Li Hezhi did not force himself to rescue Li Junyi, but settled for the second best and asked for a meeting first, and then figure out a way to deal with the future.
"This..." Li Junxin hesitated.
Li Junyi did help him a little back then, but he had also helped Li Junyi a lot over the years, and the two of them had long since cleared up their differences.
But favors have always been the hardest to repay, and now that Li Hezhi mentioned it, it was difficult for him to refuse.
Li Hezhi immediately said, "Don't worry, Uncle Wu. I only want to see my father once, and I won't force anything else."
At this point, Li Junxin naturally had the ability to get Li Hezhi to meet him. Seeing that he didn't seem like the kind of person who would make trouble, he finally nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll try."
He didn't give a definite answer, so he had to ask the Shen family about this matter.
Li Hezhi got the result he wanted, stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Wu. I won't bother you anymore. If you have any news, please ask someone to send me a message."
Shizhu immediately handed over the piece of paper with their current address.
The two of them stood up to say goodbye, and when they went out they ran into Shen Qingman and Li Hezhou.
"Man'er"
"Why are you here?"
Li Hezhi and Li Hezhou spoke almost at the same time, but one looked dazed while the other looked alert and vigilant.
