Thinking about it this way, he realized that he had less dissatisfaction when he was an official. His current status can save them a lot of trouble. This is also what the boss instructed.
He must complete this task, otherwise he will have a hard time reporting back.
Li Dafu snatched the briefcase from Shi Shichang's hand and handed it to Xiao Tang, giving him a look.
The two of them walked in front, and Xiao Tang followed slowly behind. After walking for a while, he turned into an alley, opened his briefcase, and searched for what was inside.
As luck would have it, Xiao Tang turned into the same alley where Tian Xiaolan was squatting.
Tian Xiaolan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, her hands trembled slightly, and she slowly opened the backpack.
At that moment, her eyes were fixed on the outside of the backpack. When she saw a man coming in with a briefcase, she stretched out her hand almost without hesitation and quickly covered the other person's mouth with her palm.
Her movements were a little hasty, and she covered his mouth tightly.
Tian Xiaolan pressed her fingers tightly against the other's lips, feeling the warm breath he exhaled. She leaned forward slightly and concentrated all her strength on the hand that covered the other's mouth, preventing him from saying a word.
Seeing that she reacted so quickly, Luo Guoqing hurried over to help hold the man down.
Tian Xiaolan took the briefcase that he had not yet opened, and then thought that if Li Dafu found out that someone was missing, he might become suspicious.
Now they have to persuade this man to surrender. He looks young and small in stature, so it should be easier.
All we have to pray for now is that Li Dafu doesn’t realize something is wrong so quickly.
Here, Li Dafu was still stalling for time by chatting with Shi Shichang. Before Xiao Tang came back, he looked at the alley again and again, but still didn't see him come out. Could it be that he found some treasure, or he found the key and ran to open the door himself?
Thinking of this, he felt even more uneasy. Seeing that Shi Shichang didn't seem to be suspicious, he felt relieved.
"Shichang, do you know what the key you gave me today is?"
Shi Shichang said confidently, "Isn't it the key to the Garden Hotel? I remember it!"
How could it be possible? The key he used today was so embarrassing. He tried so many times but couldn't get it in. He had even boasted that the store was his, but now everyone found out that he couldn't even open the door. People who didn't know him would think he was lying.
Li Dafu said to him: "How could it be? I tried to put the key in today and it wouldn't fit. You must have taken the wrong one!"
Shi Shichang smiled embarrassedly and said, "Oh, maybe I really took the wrong one. Let me see it."
Li Dafu was suspicious and took out the key from his pocket and handed it to him: "You are not going to give me the key to your house!"
Shi Shichang looked at the key in Li Dafu's hand and pretended to be surprised: "Oh! It's true. It must be because I didn't wake up yet. Now it's closed and I can't get it. Otherwise, I would give it to you tomorrow."
Li Dafu had the key to his house but it was useless. "Give it back to you. I'll come to see you tomorrow. How long will it take to sign the contract?"
Shi Shichang suggested: "Okay, come to my office tomorrow. Don't worry about signing the contract. If you are in a hurry, you can go back first and let Xiao Tang help you with these matters. What do you say?"
"I believe you will definitely focus on your brother's affairs first, right? I still want to finish the work tomorrow. The sooner I finish it, the sooner I can rest assured. Is that okay?" Li Dafu refused to listen to Shi Shichang's words and still planned to discuss it with him.
When he mentioned Xiao Tang just now, Li Dafu's heart trembled and he didn't know how to explain that he was not there. Fortunately, he didn't ask too much. What on earth was that kid doing? He never came out. Did he give any definite news?
"I'll work hard, but you shouldn't put all your hopes on me, okay?"
After hearing what he said, Li Dafu suddenly felt that the gifts he gave were in vain and were of no use at all. He thought that they grew up together and would at least take some feelings into consideration. Who knew that he would not be able to show his support after becoming an official?
"Okay, I'll wait for your news."
Shi Shichang saw that his eyes were rolling around, as if he was thinking of some bad idea. He really didn't expect that the reason he suddenly came back was to do something bad to that hotel. This made him wonder what he had experienced outside to become like this.
"Dafu, have you suffered a lot? Can you tell me about it?"
Li Dafu felt that Shi Shichang was pretending to care about him and wanted to see his vulnerable side. He resisted the urge to confide in him and was determined not to let him make a fool of himself.
"What a joke! Look at my current body shape, how could I possibly have suffered? I'm living a comfortable life outside, enjoying the good life and having freedom. I don't know what's making you want to sit in an office and not have freedom, but still get a fixed salary. Do you want to start a business with me?"
Li Dafu said, and when Shichang didn't reply, he continued to praise their good organization: "Our Sunshine Stock, and the current market is very good, as long as you invest, you will get a return, and it is higher than the bank's interest rate. I saved so much money by relying on this. Do you want to follow me? I will definitely not treat you unfairly. If you make money, it will be yours, and if you lose money, it will be mine!"
Shi Shichang didn't believe that the interest rate was higher than that of the bank. He had never even heard of Sunshine Stocks. But they were so sure about making money. To Shi Shichang, these words sounded like a scam. He felt as if he was deeply trapped in it and couldn't listen to others.
Now he looked at his somewhat crazy expression with some worry, and said to him: "Let me think about it, I still need to go back and discuss it with Qiaoqiao. Did you tell anyone about this business deal when you came back?"
"Don't worry, if there's something good going on, you'll be the first person I think of. I haven't told anyone else," Li Dafu assured him. "What are you asking? Why should we men listen to women? You're a henpecked man!"
Shi Shichang admitted without hesitation: "Yes, I am a henpecked woman. If I don't tell her, I'm afraid she doesn't want me to sleep with her!"
Li Dafu said arrogantly: "You are too spoiled with a domineering woman like her. If my woman dares to do this, I will find another one. Women are like clothes. Only my brother really wants to bring you to make a fortune together. Women will only hinder you from doing big things. Just listen to me!"
Shi Shichang couldn't stand listening to his words anymore. How come his three views changed after going out? It was hard for him to accept. Is this still the big brother who was kind to others before?
Shi Shichang followed up on what he said, trying to see if he could get more information out of him: "Well, you're right, I should have listened to you, but the bank is closed now, so I can't withdraw the money to you until tomorrow!"
