While Li Dong was handling some documents in the company, Zheng Long had also encountered some trouble.
He originally thought that it was just a small matter of picking someone up, but not long after he and Wang Jia got out of the car, they were blocked before they could even enter the hospital.
Three men blocked them, two burly men and a refined middle-aged man in a suit.
Wang Jia's face paled when she saw the three men and she subconsciously hid behind Zheng Long.
Zheng Long furrowed his brows and asked in a deep voice, "What are you trying to do?"
The two burly men were obviously thugs. They didn't say anything, but the refined middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Don't misunderstand. Miss Wang Jia should know us. We're looking for Miss Wang for official business."
The middle-aged man looked at Wang Jia. "Miss Wang, you've been gone for quite some time. We've been waiting for you for two months."
Wang Jia's face paled. She didn't expect these people to still be here.
She originally thought that after visiting her mother today, she would stay for a day at most before heading to Beijing. Even if these people knew that she was back, there was nothing they could do.
Who knew that these people would actually wait for two months? Their perseverance was simply devastating.
As for Li Dong saying that he would help her settle it, Wang Jia didn't dare to take it seriously.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Li Dong, but she didn't dare to let Li Dong help her with a million-dollar loan.
She could repay a loan of a few hundred thousand, but she couldn't afford a few million in this lifetime.
The middle-aged man didn't mind Wang Jia's silence and continued smiling. "Miss Wang, it's only right to repay a debt. Hiding isn't a solution. We have to deal with it, don't you think?"
"I don't have money!" Wang Jia bit her lip.
The middle-aged man's expression didn't change as he said with a smile, "It's fine if Miss Wang doesn't have money. It's fine as long as someone has money. A character driving a Benz shouldn't be unable to fork out one or two million, right? "
The middle-aged man smiled at Zheng Long. "Mister, do you want to give your boss a call?"
He could tell Zheng Long's identity with a glance. Not only did he have good eyesight, but he also recognized Li Dong's car.
Li Dong had come to the hospital several times before, but at that time, Li Dong came with Fang Qingfei, so these people didn't look for Li Dong.
In their line of work, their eyesight couldn't be bad. Some people could be provoked, and some people couldn't be provoked. They understood this.
The first few times Li Dong came, he was just a bystander. It seemed like he wasn't close to Wang Jia's mother. They were also afraid of provoking Li Dong and getting into trouble.
But now that Li Dong's car had sent Wang Jia to the hospital, they suddenly had a clue.
As long as he had a relationship with the debtor, it was good enough. If he had a good relationship with the debtor, it would be even better. This time, they weren't looking for Li Dong for no reason. Even rich people had to be reasonable, right?
Zheng Long was a little hesitant. He glanced at Wang Jia and saw that she was out of her wits. After some thought, he decided to call Li Dong.
…
Li Dong was a little surprised to receive Zheng Long's call.
He wanted to talk to those people, but he didn't expect them to come so quickly.
Wang Jia had only been back in Pingchuan for a day, and these people came looking for her. Their willpower was extraordinary.
Li Dong didn't say anything. When he heard Zheng Long say that they didn't make a move and only stopped them from leaving, Li Dong said, "Put him on the phone."
The phone was soon in the middle-aged man's hands.
After receiving the phone, the middle-aged man said politely, "Boss Li, sorry to disturb you."
He didn't know Li Dong's name, but he heard Zheng Long call him General Manager Li.
Even if the other party was a loan shark, Li Dong had no reason to get angry since he was speaking nicely to him.
Without being too polite, Li Dong said directly, "Let's cut to the chase. Let's meet up tonight. I want to talk to you."
The middle-aged man chuckled and said, "Alright, we'll listen to Boss Li. At seven tonight, at the Guixiang Restaurant next to the hospital. Let's meet there."
"That's all then."
…
After hanging up, the middle-aged man handed the phone to Zheng Long.
Then he said to Wang Jia with a smile, "Miss Wang, why didn't you tell us earlier that you had a friend like Boss Li? Otherwise, we wouldn't have had to eat box lunches in the hospital for a few months. Sorry for disturbing you, Miss Wang. I'll apologize to you later. "
After saying that, the middle-aged man waved at the two strong men beside him. Without any hesitation, the three of them turned around and left.
He wasn't afraid that Wang Jia would run away. She could run, but the temple could not.
Ignoring the fact that Wang Jia's mother was about to undergo surgery, even if Wang Jia really ran away, they wouldn't care.
How much money a woman like Wang Jia could force out would depend on Boss Li.
Only after they left did Wang Jia breathe a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Zheng Long said, "Miss Wang, don't worry. General Manager Li will take care of it."
Wang Jia forced a smile, but she sighed in her heart.
…
…
At seven in the evening, Guixiang Restaurant.
Guixiang Restaurant sounded like a restaurant, but it was actually a teahouse.
When Li Dong arrived, the middle-aged man was talking to a woman in her thirties.
When he saw the woman, Li Dong raised his eyebrows.
The woman clearly recognized Li Dong. She frowned slightly, then got up and said with a smile, "General Manager Li, nice to meet you."
Li Dong said faintly, "I didn't expect to run into Chief Hu here. It's a bit unexpected."
Speaking of this woman, although Li Dong wasn't familiar with her, he had met her a few times.
However, the last time they met was not in Pingchuan, but in Beijing.
When he acquired Baidu's shares, Li Dong met Lin Yang, an old friend from his previous life, in Beijing. Then he met Lin Yang's junior high school classmate, Hu Yue.
This woman was Hu Yue's boss, or was she Hu Yue's aunt or grandaunt? Li Dong couldn't remember.
At that time, Li Dong and she stayed in the same hotel. They had met a few times and could be considered acquaintances.
At that time, this woman looked very imposing. Li Dong thought that she should be the boss of a company or something.
He didn't expect to meet her on such an occasion today. Moreover, she was the person he was talking to. Li Dong could only sigh that he shouldn't judge a book by its cover.
At this time, who else could it be other than a loan shark?
A woman, a mature and beautiful woman, doing the work of a vampire. Li Dong could only smile bitterly.
Hu Wanlin didn't care about Li Dong's inquisitive eyes. She chuckled and said, "I also didn't expect to meet General Manager Li again. If I knew that I would meet General Manager Li, I would have brought Hu Yue along."
Li Dong smiled and didn't answer. He took a step to highlight the man next to him and introduced, "This is Chief Wu. He accompanied me to join in the fun. Chief Hu doesn't mind, right?"
Hu Wanlin's attention was previously attracted by Li Dong, so she hadn't noticed Wu Jianguo.
When Li Dong stepped aside, Hu Wanlin saw Wu Jianguo's face clearly. Then, she laughed and said, "Chief Wu, what a coincidence!"
Wu Jianguo said casually, "It's quite a coincidence. If I knew that we were all acquaintances, we should have come out earlier."
Li Dong narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Wu Jianguo from the corner of his eyes.
He didn't expect Wu Jianguo to know Hu Wanlin. From the tone, they should be quite familiar with each other.
This was obviously out of Li Dong's expectations. He had originally planned to use Wu Jianguo to intimidate the other party. After all, loan sharks were always somewhat afraid of the police.
But now, the situation had changed. Wu Jianguo and Hu Wanlin actually knew each other.
Li Dong sighed in his heart. There were so many acquaintances these days.
They could casually pull a few people out, and they could actually get to know each other in a roundabout way. What else could he say?
Not to mention Li Dong's feelings, Hu Wanlin wasn't as calm as she looked at this time.
It was just to deal with a debt. If it weren't for the fact that the amount was a little large, she wouldn't have come in person.
But who would have thought that the result would be like this?
