Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 284

After saying this, Xu Lei smiled and looked at them meaningfully.

How could Li Zhenlin possibly admit his mistake on this structural cliff?

Instead, she looked at him with a haughty expression, telling him to stop making sarcastic remarks.

"What do you know, you young kid? When I started doing business, you were still a nobody, peeing and playing in the mud."

So don't think you've gotten a great deal; those guys are complete cowards.

They're both opportunists; if you get involved with either of them, you're just asking for a run of bad luck.

As for me, I don't care if they want to come and seek refuge with me. I just hope you can have good fortune on your own.

A person should always know how to leave themselves a way out when doing things; you've pushed yourself to this point.

You think you'll be lucky in the end.

Xu Lei was somewhat baffled by this blatant curse, finding it rather inexplicable.

I still advise him to be more open-minded about some things.

"I heard a hint of bitterness in those words, but actually, I'll accept whatever the outcome may be."

I'm young, so I'm willing to suffer some losses. In fact, I'll accept whatever the outcome may be.

I'm young anyway, so it's okay to suffer a little loss. It's not a big loss for me.

But it seems like you're a bit unconvinced, as if you've been holding a grudge about this.

So I also want to advise you not to take this matter too seriously.

"Some things are best if they can come to fruition, but if they can't, don't take it to heart."

Xu Lei poured him another cup of tea, but this tea was even more fragrant and delicious.

He had lost all desire to drink; instead, a wicked glint appeared in his eyes.

Xu Lei wanted to make him behave himself, so he wouldn't be frightened by these inexplicable words.

They wouldn't be scared out of their wits by his few words.

"If you're trying to use this opportunity to give me some information, then I'll accept it."

Ultimately, I'm still young and there are still many things I haven't experienced, so I can't compare to them in the end.

I've figured out many things on my own and moved forward slowly (it's good to have money).

Xu Lei spoke with great sincerity, saying, "Ultimately, I can't compare to you in many ways. I've been figuring things out on my own and moving forward slowly."

Xu Lei spoke with great sincerity, and his meaning was very clear.

I wanted to have a proper talk with the other party and not let the situation get too bad.

Everyone here is a prominent figure in this area, so if we can take this opportunity to get to know each other better, that would be wonderful.

But if it really makes everyone look bad, then there's no need for that.

So after these words were spoken, everyone was somewhat prepared.

"It would be best if that were the case. You're still young, so don't assume that what you've done will ultimately go unnoticed."

Don't think you've gotten some huge advantage.

Xu Lei shrugged helplessly. He hadn't thought that way about Li Zhenlin either, seeing that Zhao Chunlei had completely betrayed him.

Chapter 348 Grudges

Moreover, he was doing quite well following Xu Lei, thinking that the guy would support him, but in the end, he never expected that Xu Lei would be the first to abandon him.

This fueled Li Zhenlin's anger even more; the moment he pushed open the door, he wanted to slap him.

But reason ultimately prevented him from doing so; he knew that doing so would not only make him lose face in front of Xu Lei.

Many things can no longer provide me with pure support, so I can only grit my teeth and slowly figure things out on my own.

Even though he had many grievances in his heart, he dared not lash out again; he was truly unhappy inside.

I also know that many things have come to this point and I can no longer deal with them so calmly.

On the contrary, I took the whole thing for granted.

"Actually, if you ask me, why did you have to make things turn out this way?"

Everyone was just doing their own thing in a relaxed manner, and these grudges weren't that big of a deal.

If you insist on fighting to the death, then fine, I'll take the challenge.

But you seem to have backed down again, which is why I feel a bit confused and don't quite understand the situation.

After saying this, he helplessly told the other party that he would not push himself to the brink because of this.

Since we are all heroes, we should all proceed at our own pace.

Don't cause any more trouble, and don't let this situation leave you speechless.

"You'd better understand that this matter seems very simple, but in fact, it will cause quite a lot of trouble in the future."

Li Zhenlin wanted to take this opportunity to teach Xu Lei a lesson, but he didn't expect Xu Lei to be so unmoved.

Instead, he smiled slightly and looked calm, as if he were truly afraid.

Otherwise, things wouldn't have come to this point, and the business wouldn't have grown so large, requiring the support of so many people.

If he had always been afraid of everything, he wouldn't have achieved such great success.

Xiaoqiang listened from the side, his eyes practically blazing with fury.

I really didn't expect that Li Zhenlin was such a despicable person. I don't care what others say about his behavior.

He's making excuses for himself and criticizing others.

He felt that he could find great satisfaction in this, and after watching Li Zhenlin leave, Xiao Qiang angrily punched the air twice.

Seeing Xiao Qiang like this, Xu Lei just told him to be patient and suck the air. Even the boss could endure this.

He clearly can't handle his own business and is unable to succeed, but now he sees others making money and having great businesses.

He started to feel envious and resentful, thinking he could take this opportunity to teach us a lesson. Why should we put up with this?

After speaking, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes; he truly didn't know how things had turned out this way.

And the more I think about it, the angrier I get. If it had happened before, I wouldn't have bothered.

But they had already taken care of everything, and now all they had to do was wait for everything to be settled.

"You're still too young. The reason he came to me like this is simply because he's desperate."

Although he didn't say it, I could tell, so I didn't care what he said anymore.

Xiao Qiang was furious when he heard this.

"What? He's already at his wit's end? How did you figure that out, boss?"

After he finished speaking, there was a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes. Xie Zi could only shake his head helplessly when he saw this.

"This is because I already knew that, given his temperament and personality, even if he really lost to me..."

They would never come to me to admit defeat, yet they've come up with this kind of raft.

That means he was prepared from the very beginning to break ties with me.

Xu Lei's words naturally had their own logic; otherwise, the other party wouldn't have been so open to negotiating with him.

Li Zhenlin's face had turned deathly pale, especially after seeing Zhao Chunlei and Hong Liulou in his office.

The surprise on his face didn't seem feigned.

"No wonder, I was actually quite angry at his smug look just now."

Hearing what you said, I actually feel a little better. It seems this kid is really anxious.

Otherwise, they wouldn't just lay everything out in front of them like that, acting as if they didn't care at all.

To be honest, he owes us this. We should have cooperated with him properly before.

That guy had such an arrogant attitude, as if none of us were worthy of cooperating with him.

Now he wants to back out and cooperate with us again, but I'll have to see if we're willing.

I reckon he's already panicked, and there aren't many people on his side.

Even Zhao Chunlei and Hong Liulou had already defected, yet he still thought he could set up a huge operation.

Thinking about it now makes me feel relieved. He was so powerful and went against us so much before.

He thought he could handle everything, but in reality, he was just a nobody.

After saying that, there was a hint of smugness in his eyes, and Xiao Qiang's words made Xu Lei feel a little helpless.

He didn't know why things had turned out this way, and he really wanted to have a proper talk with the other party.

He also wanted to handle things more decisively, but it seemed that Li Zhenlin always put himself in a very dangerous and stubborn position.

"Maybe he's afraid of losing his position, to be honest."

I have absolutely no interest in his position; it's just that he's always been too proud to admit it.

I thought everything could be easily handled, but actually I wasn't really interested in that place.

They always seem to think I'm taking something from them, but honestly, everyone has their own things to do.

How could we possibly keep worrying about these trivial things? We've already come this far together.

That should also be expected; many things should be handled properly from beginning to end.

Instead of simply following this rhythm and presenting all the ideas so clearly and cleanly.

Thinking about it now, it all seems a little lighter. If it were before, it would have been fine.

But now, to make matters worse, I'm getting into so many problems and conflicts, and it's really disheartening.

After saying that, he sighed helplessly, because for them...

These situations are inherently more complicated than imagined, so there's nothing inherently wrong with them.

Xu Lei is also shrewd and capable; he has long been shrewd and capable in this kind of matter.

In this matter, I have already wanted to make many things clear to the other party.

They will continue to do things according to their own ideas, and will not show any difficulty because of it.

"Boss, it's only because you have a good temper. If it were me, I would be furious to see him acting like this in our office."

Chapter 349 Fire

I slapped him out of there a long time ago, but he still thinks he can get some glory here.

To be honest, I really can't figure out what he's thinking with all these little schemes of his.

If it were before, it wouldn't have mattered, but why is he still so ungrateful now that things have come to this?

It always makes me feel a little helpless. If this had happened before, it wouldn't have been so bad.

But he always puts on this nonchalant act in front of us.

They act like we can't do anything about him, but actually, we're too lazy to argue with him about these things.

You said if we really started fighting with him, it wouldn't look good for either of us, just like you said, boss.

You think we're really afraid of him, that he has some amazing things to offer?

He treated it as if it were someone else's opinion, but in reality, it was just some shackles he put on himself.

They act as if they think that because they've done these things, we should look up to them.

Look at how many of his subordinates truly respect him.

He always assumed that he could do everything at his own pace.

But in reality, he's the one who will face difficulties until the very end, and it's unlikely he'll become any particularly powerful.

Xiao Qiang saw through it all, but Li Zhenlin still couldn't see through it. Li Zhenlin always felt that he still had great abilities.

She could have had a good relationship with Xu Lei, but little did she know that after losing everyone's support, it would be difficult to win him back.

That would be difficult. Everyone seems to be working together towards the same goal, but each of them has their own little schemes.

Xu Lei decided not to make any further plans, but simply wanted them to understand each other's thoughts.
