Xu Yun knew that Shi Lei was a person who cared about his reputation, so he did not contact Shi Lei directly. He found a way to contact Zhang Qiang and found out what had happened. Qi Xiao Bei's men had beaten Shi Lei seriously and extorted so much money from him. It would not be a problem for him to be sentenced to ten years in prison.
However, there was no way to obtain evidence for this kind of thing. Based on their one-sided statements, there was no way to file a case. Everyone knew what Shi Lei used to do. Everyone also knew that Zhang Qiang and his brothers were people who worked for Shi Lei. Other than Xu Yun, no one would believe what they said.
That was why Qi Xiao Bei dared to take the risk. He was not worried that the police could do anything to him unless Shi Lei came back. However, Shi Lei would not come back because of this matter and lose his reputation. Those who came back after washing their hands in a gold basin all died tragically on the streets.
Qi Xiao Bei's little abacus was very clear. He knew exactly what he was going to do. Anyway, he was the one who benefited now. As long as he could get some profits, nothing else mattered. He didn't care about all these messy things. After he slowly took over Shi Lei's territories, everything on the Guqin Island would belong to him.
When Xu Yun came to the hospital, Shi Lei was unwilling to look into Xu Yun's eyes. He had thought about this when he decided to wash his hands in a gold basin. However, it came a little too fast, so he still had a knot in his heart.
It was like a person who was used to being the director or minister of some bureau or department suddenly announced his retirement and had no power. That kind of feeling of emptiness was definitely not something that people who had never been in such a position could imagine.
This kind of mental adjustment required a long period of time, and people in this period were sensitive. Shi Lei was sensitive now. He did not want the people who supported him the most to see him like this when he made the decision to wash his hands in a gold basin. It was not just a matter of losing face, there were other things …
"Brother Lei, what is going to happen can't be avoided." Xu Yun did not overly comfort Shi Lei because he knew that Shi Lei was a man. He did not need those words to encourage him. "Since it has happened, you have to face it. Maybe this is what you expected, so you really don't need to be sad. You persevered. You're a good man. Your brother is proud of you. "
Shi Lei smiled bitterly and said honestly, "I really don't want you to see me in such a sorry state. Really … I don't want you to know."
"You're not afraid of letting me know, but you're afraid that if I see you like this, I'll feel regret and guilt." Xu Yun: "Actually, that's not the case. I don't owe you anything. I still think that you made the right decision. Since you want to get something that you deserve, you have to pay a price. You've gotten what you wanted, you've quit. You're no longer obstructing your path to the right path because of those obstacles. These little bumps are inevitable. "
"With your words, I feel much better." Shi Lei said, "I'll get through everything. I'm fine. This little injury can't do anything to me."
"Yes, I believe you'll be fine." Xu Yun: "I also have to thank Yang Zhen. If he hadn't brought that IOU to me, I wouldn't have known that something had happened to you. Brother Lei, if you trust me, you have to tell me immediately when something like this happens. The longer it drags on, the harder it will be to deal with it. "
Shi Lei was stunned. Of course, he knew that Qi Xiao Bei had forced him to sign the IOU. "You told Yang Zhen to ask me to deal with it. This has nothing to do with you. He voluntarily sold that house to you."
"Your business is my business," Xu Yun said faintly, "No matter what, Qi Xiao Bei caused you trouble because of Yang Zhen."
"Brother, there's really no way to deal with this matter properly." Shi Lei said, "The time has passed. There's no way to deal with it … You know, I've quit. I won't use the rules of the underworld to solve this problem."
Xu Yun didn't say anything.
Shi Lei said bitterly, "I know. I should call the police immediately. But with my identity, even if I call the police, I'm afraid there's no favorable evidence to help me. Director Chen is a particular person. I don't want to add these messy troubles to him. These years, Qingdao has been stable, but it's also chaotic. Director Chen needs to worry more if he wants to completely rectify the situation. I don't want to add to his troubles … Really. "
"It's too late to call the police." Xu Yun said faintly, "It's not easy to get evidence for this kind of thing. It's even more impossible to get evidence now. But I have my own way of doing things. I'm not a thug, but it doesn't mean that I won't use violence against violence. "
Shi Lei was stunned, "Isn't that my way of doing things … But I quit. I don't want you to do that because of me. "
Xu Yun said disapprovingly, "I've never been bound by rules. No one can stop me from doing whatever I want. Qi Xiao Bei will ask someone to send the money to you before nightfall. "
Shi Lei looked at Xu Yun in surprise, "Brother, you don't have to … You're a member of the upper class for this kind of thing."
"So what? I just want Qi Xiao Bei to know what kind of person he really is. " The moment Xu Yun saw Shi Lei, the fire in his heart was already burning. It was not only because of Shi Lei's righteousness, but also because Shi Lei's actions had helped Chen Wei a lot.
Xu Yun, who had always done things his own way, did not care about these messy shackles. No one could stop him from doing what he wanted to do. Now, he just wanted Qi Xiao Bei to kneel in front of Shi Lei's bed and kowtow to him.
"Brother, you don't have to do this for me."
"It's not just that. It's also for me." Xu Yun smiled and deliberately made the atmosphere more relaxed, "I still need him to help me get the IOU from Yang Zhen. I don't want to return the villa that has already been renovated. Besides, my sister has already bought the furniture. Those things have no quality problems. I can't just return them. If the house is gone, where can I put them? "
Shi Lei smiled faintly. He could hear that Xu Yun was trying to make him feel better.
"I'm really doing this for myself. Brother Lei, don't think too much," Xu Yun smiled and said, "You should rest well. It's best to rest for your injuries. I'll ask Pigeon to send you some medicine to help you recover later. He'll tell you how to use it. "
Shi Lei knew that Xu Yun would definitely give him some priceless medicine. He quickly said, "I'm not going to die. I'm fine anyway. I'll be fine after resting for a while. Don't throw those treasures to me. It's too wasteful."
"Haha, I'm just afraid that if I don't use them, they will expire. Brother Lei, please help me use them. Don't waste them." Xu Yun's joke did make Shi Lei feel better.
After leaving the hospital, Xu Yun immediately called Lin Ge and asked him to send the medicine that Shi Lei used. He then went to look for Qi Xiao Bei alone.
Xu Yun learned from Zhang Qiang that Qi Xiao Bei loved to play billiards. Although billiards was not a high-end activity these days, if he liked it, he would spend most of his time playing billiards.
In Qi Xiao Bei's words, if he didn't mingle in society anymore, he would participate in some billiards tournament. Maybe he could even beat Fatty Ding. At that time, he would be the pride of the country. Qi Xiao Bei could easily break 100 points in a single shot when playing with ordinary people. That was why he had the confidence to say such big words.
At this moment, Qi Xiao Bei, who was in a very good mood, was killing a lot of people in front of a pool table in a private warehouse. Usually, there would be some shady business in this warehouse at night. During the day, there would be people playing cards, mahjong, and Dou Dizhu.
Then, people would take turns to play billiards with Qi Xiao Bei to make him happy. In the past few days, Qi Xiao Bei had earned a lot of money. Hence, he was having a lot of fun here. Every afternoon, he would stay here for a few hours and use his extraordinary skills to torture his underlings. Then, he would give himself the title of the Chinese version of O 'Sullivan.
Just when Qi Xiao Bei used 103 points to expose one of his underlings, Xu Yun, an uninvited guest, suddenly broke into this secluded warehouse.
