Chapter 270: Video taken in advance
“But... Hu Xilin is a very stubborn person. He will be very annoyed. He must meet to talk to me. I told him to leave it alone on both calls. It’s irrelevant, but...” Lei Cheng said as he thought, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
Hu Xilin was friends with him.
In fact, Hu Xilin and Lei You were old friends.
Before Lei Cheng came to Donghai to take charge of the subsidiary company, Hu Xilin had a close relationship with Lei You. As for his eldest brother’s friends, Lei Cheng had little contact with them in private except for dealing with them in business.
He came to Donghai to keep a low profile, to lie dormant, to pretend to be a failed, depressed, useless person who only knows how to play!
But Lei Cheng and Hu Xilin still became friends.
It was Hu Xilin who took the initiative to get in touch with Lei Cheng. He did not look down on Lei Cheng, a loser in the family’s internal strife. Moreover, Hu Xilin loved making friends and was very enthusiastic towards others.
After Lei Cheng had been in contact with him for a period of time, he found that this person was really good, so he took the initiative to have more contact with him.
In this way, the two developed a relationship and became friends.
Nothing in this world was black and white. For Lei Cheng, if he was either Lei You’s friend or a bad person, he could not be in contact with them and had to stay away.
After all, Hongfa Group was huge. As the general manager and actual operator, Lei You had made too many friends through business!
Now, Lei Cheng knew Hu Xilin.
He was not a bad person and was very righteous, but he was really annoying! This was caused by his personality. He would always pester, keep talking, and always give good advice as a friend.
Was he going to fall out with him? Not really.
Should he listen to his advice? No.
Avoid him? He really could annoy a person to death!
Lei Cheng didn’t know what Lei You said to Hu Xilin. Most likely, he asked him as a friend, so Hu Xilin must have agreed.
As long as it was something Hu Xilin promised, he would definitely do it. If he couldn’t do it, he would be annoyed!
“Alas! Lao Hu is a very righteous person, but he likes to meddle in other people’s business. I can’t tell him that yet. It’s too thin...” Lei Cheng sighed as he thought about it.
“I know him.” Wu Chen turned his head to look at Lei Cheng and said with a smile, then handed the adjusted mobile phone to Lei Cheng and said, “Look at this.”
“What?” Lei Cheng took the phone.
Wu Chen didn’t answer him.
Lei Cheng looked at the phone interface. It was a video playback. Clicking it would start it playing.
Lei Cheng clicked play.
The video began: the screen shook, and the phone was quickly stabilized, facing the booth in the corner. There was no one in the corner, but people come quickly.
Less than ten seconds into the video playback, footsteps approached, and a man and a woman appeared on the screen, sitting down opposite each other in the corner.
“Zhu Haobo?” Lei Cheng suddenly frowned and muttered.
He recognized Zhu Haobo at a glance, even though Zhu Haobo was wearing a peaked cap with the brim set very low. Lei Cheng could tell just by looking at his profile and body shape.
Lei Cheng is the boss of Hongfa’s subsidiary Fumao Group, and Zhu Haobo was the vice president, with power and status second only to Lei Cheng. He was Lei You’s confidant and had always been keeping an eye on Lei Cheng.
“I took it.” Wu Chen said with a smile.
“You took it?” Lei Cheng was stunned. Although the video was on Wu Chen’s mobile phone, the video could be imported. When Lei Cheng watched the video, he never thought that this video was actually taken by Wu Chen himself!
“Yes.” Wu Chen nodded again to confirm.
“Then... when did this happen?” Lei Cheng asked again.
“This afternoon,” Wu Chen said.
“Today... afternoon?!” Lei Cheng was shocked all of a sudden.
“Yes, this afternoon, just an hour ago.” Wu Chen nodded and smiled.
Lei Cheng started to feel a little confused.
Because he thought, even if Wu Chen shot this video himself, instead of Wu Chen arranging his men to shoot it or getting it through other channels, even so...
That should be from before, right?
Maybe it’s because Wu Chen checked something before, so he had this video on his phone.
But Wu Chen said... this afternoon? An hour ago?
Why did he suddenly check them today?
Lei Cheng couldn’t think of any other reasons. All he could think of directly was that Hu Xilin came to persuade him. If it was because of this matter, it would not be wrong to check his home, check his wife, and cause him some trouble so that he would not have time to come over and cause trouble.
But the problem was! Lei Cheng just talked to Wu Chen about Hu Xilin, and this video was taken by Wu Chen an hour ago!
More so, Wu Chen even filmed the video in advance!
It’s hard to predict.
Lei Cheng didn’t think towards Wu Chen being a prophet. What he thought of was, what was Wu Chen’s true background that could not be found out at all?
Wu Chen knew in advance that Hu Xilin had called him? Or did he know in advance that Lei You had approached Hu Xilin?
How strong was his intelligence? How much background did he have?
“Brother, why did you film this...” Lei Cheng was about to ask Wu Chen why he suddenly filmed this. He also thought, but maybe the reason was wrong.
Otherwise, Wu Chen would be really amazing!
At this moment...
Ding-ding-ding...
It was Lei Cheng’s cell phone.
Lei Cheng took out his mobile phone from his pocket, glanced at it, frowned slightly, but also answered the call, “Old Hu, can you please don’t...”
It was Hu Xilin, who had called Lei Cheng.
Only half an hour passed, and this was the third time he called Lei Cheng this afternoon.
“Stop talking nonsense.” Hu Xilin interrupted Lei Cheng directly and said, “I’m outside your community. Please ask someone to pick me up.”
Hu Xilin came to his house!
