After hesitating for a moment, Little Peach finally picked up the call that was like a death warrant.
"Hello." Xiao Taohong frowned.
"What are you doing? Why did you hang up on me? Are you still working? "A presumptuous voice came from the other side of the phone. Even though there was a table between them, Xiao Zheng could hear it clearly.
"If you have something to say, just say it." Xiao Taohong didn't seem to want to explain to her brother.
"How much money do you have? Give it to me. I will return it to you later. "The man on the other side of the phone was not polite. He asked for money.
"Didn't I just give you five thousand last month?" Xiao Taohong tried to lower her voice.
Which woman would be willing to expose her indecent side in front of the man she admired and admired? Especially when it came to family issues. For a woman, this might be a kind of self-esteem injury, right?
"You said it was last month!" The man on the other side of the phone raised his voice. "Last month I had to eat, and this month I have to eat?"
He said it as if it was a matter of course. He didn't know that Xiao Taohong often stayed up late to work. Sometimes she was too tired and even stayed in the office for one night.
He, a man, asked his sister for money and he said it as if it was a matter of course. As if Xiao Taohong didn't give him money was a crime.
"How much money do I have? My parents are not in good health. It's fine if you don't take care of them, but you still ask me for money every day. "Xiao Taohong said angrily. "Don't you have hands and feet? Don't you know how to find a job? "
"Why do you talk so much nonsense?" Brother Li said angrily. "Just ten thousand! Hurry and give it to me. I need it urgently! "
"What do you want money for?" Xiao Taohong gritted her teeth and asked.
Don't care?
That was her only brother. And according to Xiao Taohong's understanding of her brother, he probably did something wrong again. If she didn't care, who could care about him? Those bad friends?
Except when they called each other brothers, when they were in trouble, who wouldn't run away?
"I am at Nightingale Restaurant. I just had an argument with someone and blew up a kid's head. "The Li family's eldest brother said indifferently. "Come here quickly. He wanted to call the police, but I stopped him. He said he can settle it privately for ten thousand yuan. "
Xiao Taohong was so angry that her body trembled, and her eyes reddened. "How old are you? Couldn't they just avoid getting into trouble? Ten thousand yuan? Don't you know how much my monthly salary is? "
"Can you blame me?" Big Brother Li said unhappily. "That brat drank too much and kept staring at your sister-in-law. How can a man like me endure this? "
Sister-in-law?
Xiao Taohong's heart sank.
A woman who changes every month has the cheek to say that she's his sister-in-law?
Even if it was, who knew if the other party was staring at his girlfriend? Maybe it was just an excuse for him to take the money.
"That's enough! I still have a group of friends here. "The Li family's eldest brother finally said something ruthless. "It's fine if you don't want to lend me the money. When I get home, I'll ask my parents to bring me some clothes from the detention center. It's cold. "
He hung up the phone.
Xiao Taohong sat on the chair in a daze, and tears rolled down her face. Her originally lively and cute face was also full of pain.
Encountering such a brother was a fatal injury to any girl.
To put it in a small way, it was just spending money to avoid disaster. To put it in a big way, it might bring disaster to Xiao Taohong for the rest of her life.
These days, especially for ordinary citizens. Who would want to find a wife with a lot of problems at home? Those with good conditions were afraid of getting married and getting into trouble. No matter how outstanding Xiao Taohong was, the man would carefully consider it. Even parents would oppose it.
Love could be sustained for three to five years with sweet words. But marriage was companionship for thirty to fifty years. He wouldn't be able to keep this up with just his glib tongue.
Xiao Zheng handed a tissue to Xiao Taohong and comforted her. "Things that can be solved with money are not problems. I'll go with you? "
Xiao Taohong really wanted to decline Xiao Zheng's kindness.
But she had done this kind of thing to clean up her brother's mess again and again. She was really tired, tired. Now that she had Xiao Zheng to accompany her, she could feel a little more comforted.
She did not force herself to refuse Xiao Zheng. She just bit her lip and said, "Mr. Xiao — I've made a fool of myself in front of you."
"Every family has its own difficulties." Xiao Zheng joked. "Don't cry. Your makeup is ruined. "
Xiao Taohong's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly wiped away her tears. She said, "I wanted to treat you to a meal. But you have to pay the bill again. "
"Next time." Xiao Zheng smiled. "Can you still run away?"
Xiao Taohong's pretty face blushed slightly. She bit her lip and did not say anything.
Xiao Taohong really did not intend to run away from such a boss. If she could, she was willing to work for Xiao Zheng for the rest of her life.
They walked out of the restaurant. Xiao Zheng was afraid that Xiao Taohong would be emotionally unstable and have an accident when she was driving. So he let her sit in his BMW.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao." Xiao Taohong carefully sat in the BMW. She thanked him.
Although she drove an Audi, which was nominally the same class as a BMW. But there were also good and bad brands. Take her Audi for example, it only cost 250,000 yuan. Xiao Zheng's BMW cost more than one million yuan. They could not be compared at all. So she was quite reserved when she sat in the car.
Xiao Zheng smiled and did not say much. He drove straight to the Nightingale Restaurant.
…
The Nightingale Restaurant.
The crowd was crowded together. Even the restaurant owner came out. On one side, people were shouting, saying that they would call the police if they did not pay. On the other side, there was a table of men and women. They were all around thirty years old. They were dressed passably. But they sat still at the table and drank.
"What the hell are you shouting for?" Li Feng glared at the person who shouted. "Call the police if you dare. But I have to remind you. If you really call the police, then you won't get a single cent of the medical expenses. "
Hearing that, the group of people was terrified.
Both groups of people had a background in Jianghu. But they were all unorthodox. This one had a meal and a drink with a Jianghu person. That one was a relative and friend of a Jianghu person. None of them were good people. If they really called the police, they would all be covered in sh * t.
Now that someone stood up to pay the medical expenses, of course they would not call the police to look for trouble.
Wasn't it just a broken head? Go to the hospital for an injection and bandage. It would be settled with 800 or 1,000 yuan. The remaining 9,000 yuan was enough for them to squander for a while.
"I say, Li Feng. When is your sister coming? Don't tell me you can't raise the money? "The coquettish woman next to Li Feng complained.
She had known Li Feng for less than a month, but she saw that Li Feng was generous and seemed to have endless money. After a while, they got along. To put it nicely, they were boyfriend and girlfriend. To put it bluntly, they treated Li Feng as a rich man. If they had money, they would gather together. If not, they would leave.
"Do we still need to gather 10,000 yuan? Li Li. Do you know where my sister works? "Li Feng curled his lips. "Xin Ao! The most popular celebrity company in the capital. You know the Phantom series, right? It has a global reputation and is the first choice of celebrities and socialites. My sister is in charge of this. She is also the confidant of the head of the overseas department. She just changed to an Audi some time ago. You're worried that she can't raise 10,000 yuan? Are you kidding me? "
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Li Feng in a new light. They all gave him a thumbs up.
Most of the people present were from the capital. Although they were low-level people, they had also heard of Xin Ao Company. They knew that it was amazing. It had a big background.
Li Feng used to hang out with this group of scoundrels, but he never revealed his sister's workplace. He was mainly worried that his bragging would affect his sister's work. Now that he was provoked by a new woman, he couldn't help but reveal it on the spot.
When Li Li heard this, she immediately held Li Feng's arm and said sweetly, "Really? Why didn't you say so earlier? I've always wanted to buy a set of Phantom cosmetics. It's just too expensive. The paperback version costs one or two thousand yuan. I heard that the limited edition set costs more than 10,000 yuan. Can you ask your sister to help me get a set? "
"No problem!" Li Feng waved his hand. "There are a few ready-made sets at home. I'll get you a set later. "
"You're the best." Li Li kissed Li Feng on the cheek in front of everyone, leaving a red lipstick mark.
Li Feng's vanity swelled. He slammed the table and said, "Boss, why are you standing there? Aren't you going to serve us the wine? Don't worry, I'll take responsibility for all the losses. I won't go back on my word. "
He sounded arrogant, as if even if the sky collapsed, his sister would be there to hold it up.
* Ding ding. *
Li Feng's phone suddenly rang. It was his sister calling.
"Hello. Sister. Are you here? "Li Feng asked.
"I'll be at the door. Come out and get the money. I won't be going in. "Xiao Taohong didn't want Xiao Zheng to get involved. Of course, she was not used to this kind of place.
What was there to see in a fight, and it was her family?
"How can I do that? My leg was injured just now, "Li Feng said stubbornly. "Hurry up and come in."
After saying that, he directly hung up. Then he said to his group of scoundrels, "Don't you always think that I'm bragging? Just wait and see. My sister is a fairy-like beauty. Good at work, good temperament, even more beautiful than those celebrities on TV! "
