Gong Yan simply put down the documents in his hand, his dark eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes fell on the night outside the study window, and his thin lips seemed to have a sneer.
The other end of the phone.
In a high-end apartment in Hong Kong City, only a dim night light was turned on in the bedroom.
In the soft light, the man's figure showed an outline.
Qin luofan looked down at the haggard face frowning even when he was asleep. His fingers wanted to touch her cheek several times, but he never dared to touch it.
He was holding the mobile phone in his hand, his face was cold, and his voice overflowing from his throat was also cold. "I want to talk about something. President Gong must have known it long ago, and I won't talk more nonsense."
He paused and lowered his voice once. "What do you want to do to let Zhizhi go?"
Gong Yan listened quietly, almost without any reaction.
His eyes pulled back from the window, reached out and opened the drawer of his desk, took out a cigarette from the cigarette box placed inside, held it to his lips, lit it with his head down and took a sip.
When Townsend told him the results of the investigation, the call had long been expected by him, so there was nothing unexpected.
Qin luofan would negotiate terms with him for that woman, which was also what he expected.
The smoke overflowed from the thin lips and blurred the look on Jun's face.
He didn't return. Qin luofan waited quietly without any impatience.
Half inclined, he listened to the man's flat and faint voice and replied slowly, "Qin Shao, it's better to ask me when she will recognize the reality and do less meaningless struggle than what I should do to let her go."
It was said casually, but there was an undisguised rampancy between the lines, which undoubtedly ignited the anger in his chest.
Qin luofan looked down at the sleepy woman, got up and went out of the room, and took the door with him.
Under the bright light in the living room, the green veins on his forehead appeared in an instant, showing his forbearance and restraint. He sneered, "how can it be a meaningless struggle? President Gong underestimates my ability?"
In terms of strength, although he can't compare with him who pushed Gong into the international market in a few years, he just wants to protect a woman. He is still his favorite woman. If he doesn't have this ability, he won't dial this phone today.
He just can't see that women can't eat well and sleep well these days. He is always worried and his face is getting worse and worse day by day.
He knew that she knew better than anyone that no one could guarantee her safety out of the apartment. She could only stay in the shelter he gave like a bird in a cage.
The head Gong Yan still smoked indifferently. In the hazy smoke, his long and narrow eyes were flat without any ripples. He only had a slow sneer on his lips, like ridicule and irony, "I naturally won't doubt your ability, but... Qin Shao is so anxious to stand out for women. Does Qin know?"
Qin luofan listened to the man's light words as if they were just irrelevant questions. He suddenly clenched his fingers while holding the fuselage.
"Gong is always worried about something. Since I can call you, it shows that I can be the master. Now I have inherited half of the Qin family's property. These chips are enough to negotiate with you."
As soon as his voice fell, a man's inaudible laughter came from the receiver, but it was obvious that it was full of irony.
"You're still a little too young, Qin Shao. Everyone has a time of high spirits, but some things don't just mean that it's enough."
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Gong Yan crushed the cigarette butts he had sucked out into the crystal ashtray. His thin lips were always lightly hooked with a shallow radian, but there was no smile in his dark eyes. "You won't be my opponent. Even if you can protect her for a while, you don't have to win her for a lifetime. If you force you to fight against me, even if you try your best, old Qin won't sit idly by. Why?"
He continued faintly, "half of the Qin family's property is in your hands, but as long as old Qin said a word, he can take it back at any time. Why should I take the time to talk about bad checks with you?"
Qin luofan's green veins on his forehead beat suddenly and resisted the impulse to hit his mobile phone on the wall.
He was angry because the man was telling the truth, but there was nothing he could do.
In this negotiation, both sides have not been on the negotiation table, but the outcome is a foregone conclusion.
After the anger was extinguished, Qin luofan's face showed an unprecedented look of frustration.
It didn't help to go on. He was just about to take off his cell phone and hang up.
A man's low and cold voice suddenly sounded at the other end, "again, I've heard some news recently. The Customs at the port city will strengthen the sampling inspection of shipping recently. I heard that a batch of contraband goods were found at your Qin family's Wharf last time, but they were pressed down. If there were any accidents this time, I don't know if it would be so easy to deal with..."
Qin luofan's eyelids jumped and his face tightened, "you threaten me?"
"I'm just showing you the situation."
His voice fell, and the black mobile phone was still heavily hit on the wall, accompanied by the man's roar.
Qin luofan's whole person exudes a strong hostility.
He turned around and suddenly caught a glimpse of the thin figure standing on the door frame. All his anger disappeared in an instant.
"Zhizhi, why did you come out? Did I wake you up?"
Su Zhizhi held the door frame in her hand and looked at him with some confusion. "What's the matter, lofan?"
……
Pei Luoyi woke up early, but she didn't get up yet.
She lay flat in the quilt, her eyes empty, looked at the crystal chandelier hanging upside down from the ceiling, and listened to the movements of the servants outside the door.
I think I'm packing for a man on a business trip.
Last night, she went back to her room and waited for a long time. The man didn't go back from her study. She was angry for a while and went to sleep.
Thinking about things in my heart, I woke up naturally at dawn in the morning.
Keep your eyes open until the morning sun gradually diffuses into the room.
The two villains in her mind were still fighting, and the door was pushed open.
Pei Luoyi was so frightened that she pulled the quilt over her head.
Familiar footsteps stepped on the floor, gradually approached the bedside, and then stopped.
Peiluo Yimeng was in the quilt. Her dark eyes turned nervously. She was afraid of being found out, and even held her breath.
But she didn't want to. The quilt was suddenly lifted by the man's long arm. She didn't even have time to catch it.
At the moment of her exclamation, the slender and straight figure pressed down, grabbed her two wrists and put them on her head.
"Pretend to sleep, huh?" The man's smiling eyes fell on her face, and the extra low voice in the morning was very attractive.
Pei Luoyi opened her eyes wide. She had been holding her breath for too long before. She could only gasp heavily. She looked at Junyan, who was magnified several times in front of her, and her brain was still confused.
