Zha Haisheng smiled and said, "As long as I don't make any mistakes."
"Huh?" Li He looked at Zha Haisheng in a daze. He realized that he had really changed.
"Is there something on my face?" Zha Haisheng was a little confused. He didn't understand why Li He was staring at him!
Li He took a sip of tea and said, "If it was the old you, do you know what you would say?"
Zha Haisheng shook his head. "You know me so well?"
Li He said, "You would say that as long as I don't make any mistakes. This is the difference between the old you and the current you."
Zha Haisheng was stunned. It was as if Li He had poked his heart.
The private room fell silent. It was so quiet that it made people nervous.
At this moment, the waiter came in with the dishes. Zha Haisheng's girlfriend took the opportunity to break the awkward atmosphere. She smiled and said, "Brother Li, right? Let me pour you some wine. Our Hai Sheng talks about you the most.
He talks about how you guided him in the past and how you helped him. He is very grateful. "
"Thank you." Li He stood up and placed the wine glass under the bottle. Then, he took the bottle and smiled. "You're welcome. We'll do it ourselves. If you don't want to drink, eat more. Don't stand on ceremony."
"My surname is Xie, Xie Lingling. You can call me Little Xie. I'm from the same system as Hai Sheng." Zha Haisheng's girlfriend introduced herself.
"Then I'll call you Little Xie." Li He nodded and clinked glasses with Zha Haisheng. "Up to you."
Then, he finished his drink.
"I'm done too." Zha Haisheng was halfway through his drink when he suddenly choked. He coughed so hard that snot came out of his nose.
"If you can't drink, don't force yourself. Brother Li is not an outsider." Xie Lingling complained as she massaged Zha Haisheng's back. "Do you think that just because people call you 'Secretary Zha', you'll be able to hold your liquor?"
"Then I won't drink. Your alcohol tolerance hasn't changed at all." Li He frowned, but he quickly relaxed. In fact, it was his fault. He shouldn't have made himself unhappy. He shouldn't have said those so-called life insights that made people unhappy.
"Don't, Brother Li. Don't listen to her. Let's continue drinking. I can't drink white wine." Zha Haisheng said to Xie Lingling. "Why don't you ask the waiter to serve us beer?"
Xie Lingling was reluctant at first, but when she saw the look in Zha Haisheng's eyes, she finally left the room and closed the door.
After asking the waiter to serve the beer, she didn't go back in. She wasn't a fool. Zha Haisheng was purely trying to drive her away.
When the beer was served, Zha Haisheng opened a bottle for himself and poured a full glass. Then, he stood up and held it up. "Brother Li, I'm sorry. I've disappointed you!"
The glass was facing down, not a single drop dripping.
"I'm sorry. I said the wrong thing. I'll punish myself." Li He finished his glass in one gulp as he spoke. Then, he poured another glass until he finished three glasses.
"Brother, do you still remember what you said to me in the past? You said that humans belong to society. I only understand this now. If I were to leave society, I wouldn't be considered a human! "Zha Haisheng also finished his glass without hesitation.
Li He smiled. "Let's not talk about this. I'm happy to see that you're living well. Really, I've always treated you as …"
Speaking of this, he felt that it wasn't appropriate.
Treat him as a younger brother?
But he was Secretary Zha!
He couldn't say this!
Although it wasn't a case of them trying to curry favor, he was afraid that the other party would overthink.
"Be a good friend! A very good friend! "
"Thank you, Brother Li. I also treat you as my best friend!" Zha Haisheng said emotionally.
"Let's drink to our friendship!" Li He didn't want to say anything else.
After the meal, Zha Haisheng rushed to pay the bill. Li He gave the restaurant manager a look. He didn't stop him and allowed him to pay.
After sending Zha Haisheng and Xie Lingling to the door, he watched them walk past an intersection. Then, he got into the Jeep that was waiting for him.
"Let's go." Li He smiled and called out to Zhang Bing, who hadn't shown up yet. Then, the two of them walked past an intersection and found their own car.
He suddenly felt comforted. This meant that they were both willing to deal with their personal relationships as normal people. No one was willing to flaunt their status, wealth, and power in front of anyone else.
They could only blame this society for pushing them forward and giving them different roles. They were originally free and unfettered ordinary people, but in the end, they had to risk losing their souls to show themselves.
Lying on the seat, he was about to take a nap when he heard Zhang Bing say, "Pinsong called."
"What's the matter?" Li He was so dizzy that he couldn't open his eyes.
"Feng Lei really has a problem. He used his brother-in-law's wife's name to register a few companies. Xia Leather Company is almost empty because of him." Zhang Bing spoke in a rare serious tone. He was even a little careful.
"What?" Li He immediately sat up straight. He thought he had heard wrongly. "What does he want?"
Xia Leather Company was a subsidiary of Xia Furniture Factory. The accounts had always been checked by Fu Xia. Li He didn't know much about it. Even if Fu Xia checked the accounts, it was only because she had no reason not to trust Feng Lei.
Zhang Bing sighed and said, "Feng Lei might … might …"
He said hesitantly.
"You mean he wants to set up his own company and leave after making some money?" Li He could roughly guess.
Zhang Bing nodded. "I think that's what Pinsong meant."
"Does Fu Xia know?" After all, Feng Lei was Fu Xia's person. Li He still hoped that Fu Xia would handle it herself.
But from a real point of view, he didn't want to believe that Feng Lei would do such a thing without a clear investigation!
It could be said that he had watched the half-grown Feng Shuiliu grow up!
He knew this child's character very well!
He didn't look like someone who would betray him!
Most importantly, Feng Lei knew his capabilities. Why would he take such a risk?
Could it be that he knew him too well and was betting on his kindness?
Was he easy to talk to?
Hoping that he would let him go easily?
"Pinsong didn't say anything about this." Zhang Bing shook his head.
"Stop the car."
"Okay." Zhang Bing stopped the car by the roadside.
Li He looked at Zhang Bing and said word by word, "If Feng Lei isn't trustworthy, then Pinsong should be suspicious as well. Go and investigate."
"Okay." When Zhang Bing saw the ruthlessness in Li He's eyes, he was horrified.
"Start with Guo Fuxing." Li He clenched his fists. If Pinsong framed Feng Lei, then there was something wrong with Pinsong. If Feng Lei really betrayed him, then Pinsong definitely wouldn't be able to escape!
A once honest child had betrayed him. He didn't believe that a smart person like Pinsong wouldn't have any tricks up his sleeves.
He could accept these people sneakily taking advantage of him, but he would never accept them cheating him in broad daylight!
Only a fool would think that he, Li Lao Er, was easy to talk to!
