Guo Dongyun was the only one at the banquet. She didn't bring anyone with her. She was wearing a tight dress and white sneakers. She was dressed very casually.
"This is considered a gathering of friends to eat and chat. It has nothing to do with business, and we won't talk about business today."
Shen Daoru suddenly said that he had something urgent to attend to and left in a hurry. As long as Li He was around, he didn't have the right to be friends with Guo Dongyun.
Li He smiled and said, "Manager Guo, what would you like to eat? It's my treat."
"Really?" Guo Dongyun looked at Li He from head to toe. He was wearing pants, a T-shirt, and sandals.
"Is there anything dirty on my face?" Li He was embarrassed by Guo Dongyun's stare. He couldn't help but touch his face, but he didn't feel anything.
Guo Dongyun covered her mouth and laughed. "I just want to know where you're getting the money from."
"Ah!" Li He touched his pants pocket but didn't feel anything. T-shirts didn't have pockets, so he didn't need to. He looked around, but Shen Daoru had already disappeared. According to his habit, Shen Daoru didn't need him to keep the money with him by his side. He looked at Guo Dongyun awkwardly and said with a smile, "Why don't you lend me your mobile phone? I'll call Old Shen. He's too fast."
He still had to call them to give him money!
Guo Dongyun smiled and said, "I'm just kidding, Mr. Li. Let me treat you. I don't think you like this kind of place very much. Let's go somewhere else. "
"Then I'm sorry. I'll definitely treat you next time." He looked around. He really didn't like the Western restaurants here. "There's a seafood stall here. Let's eat seafood. I can't eat much Western food. "
Besides, he still liked to use chopsticks. He insisted that anyone who ate with a fork was sick in the head. They were all heretics and needed to be burned to death! Those who ate sweet and savory tofu pudding were all heretics too!
Shouldn't tofu pudding be spicy?
Guo Dongyun waved the car key in her hand. "Then come with me. Get in the car."
After Li He got in the car, Guo Dongyun's car sped through the night. After entering the mountain road, she made a sharp turn, braked suddenly, and even did a ninety-degree drift at the bend!
"Don't worry, Boss Guo. Open it slowly!
He quickly fastened his seat belt! This woman was playing with her life!
This was the rhythm of the Racing God of Mount Akina!
Are you sure you won't attract traffic police?
"Don't worry, there are no cameras here. I don't want to be on the front page of tomorrow's news." Guo Dongyun's car finally slowed down after leaving the mountain road.
The car stopped at the entrance of an alley.
Both ends of the bustling street were full of restaurants and stalls.
Guo Dongyun led the way into a stall, and Li He followed. Inside, smoke billowed out, and there was a hubbub of voices. People came and went, and the tables were full. The business here was very good.
The two of them waited for a while at a table where people were about to leave. Only after they left did they hurriedly sit down.
The waiter brought the menu and Guo Dongyun asked him to order.
He pushed the menu away. "Fresh crabs and oysters can be served."
Guo Dongyun asked for two big glasses of draft beer. "It's hot. Drink this."
"No problem." Li He did not reject her.
After the dishes were served, the two of them chatted as they ate.
"I heard that you're sending your sister to school?"
"She can't keep up with her studies in China, so she can only send her here." Li He clinked his glass with hers.
Guo Dongyun smiled. "Yeah. Actually, as long as it's in the Chinese community, there is a lot of pressure to enter a higher school. It's the same in Singapore. Parents are always trying their best to send their children to the best schools, hoping that their children will receive the best education. "
"You're from Singapore?" If she had not said it, Li He would not have known.
"More or less. Where did you think I was from?"
"I thought you were from Hong Kong."
"I'm actually a Malaysian Chinese. I was born in Malaysia and went to a Chinese high school. Later, I went to university in England and became a Singaporean citizen."
"Oh, so you're from Malaysia."
"No, no, I'm not from Malaysia." Guo Dongyun smiled and explained, "Malaysians are the largest ethnic group in Malaysia. It's the name of the ethnic group, which corresponds to the Chinese ethnic group. So I'm a Malaysian, not a Malay."
Li He smiled apologetically. "I'm sorry."
Without someone else's explanation, he really could not tell.
"It's okay, I'm used to it. Anyway, there are often such misunderstandings. Sometimes, I really don't know how to explain. I only explain to my friends."
"Thank you." Li He raised his glass to her again. "I also have an older sister. She might be sent to Singapore to study in a university."
"Oh? Do you need help? Have you chosen a school? I can help you with that. "
"It's okay. It's just a matter of money. " Li He said nonchalantly. It was the same even if he wanted to enter an Ivy League university in America. As long as he was willing to donate money, there was no university that he could not get into. He had never seen a tycoon's child graduate from a diploma mill.
Guo Dongyun smiled and said, "The best university in Singapore is the National University. It's not that easy to get into the National University. Forgive me for being blunt, but you can't rely on your relationship with Mr. Shen. "
"I'd like to hear the details." He knew that Guo Dongyun was right. Shen Daoru was at best a nouveau riche. He didn't have much stability and confidence. He didn't have any strong social connections. At least, he couldn't compare with Guo Dongyun.
Guo Dongyun shook her head and smiled. "It's not convenient for me to say. If Mr. Li trusts me, please give me your sister's information. I'll handle it. But I can say one more thing. My surname is Guo. "
"My surname is Li." Li He was a little confused by her words. Was she hinting that Guo was very powerful in Singapore or Malaysia?
But he could not think of any tycoon with the surname Guo. After all, there were many Chinese tycoons in Southeast Asia.
He only knew that Singapore was also called Lee Kapo. His surname was also Li. Wouldn't he be just as powerful there?!
Guo Dongyun laughed. "Mr. Li, you're really humorous."
"What's the condition?" Li He tacitly agreed to her help, but he did not believe that this woman would be so kind. She would not do things that did not benefit her. Exchanging benefits was a very common thing.
"A glass of forfeit. I said that we're not going to talk about business today. I'm treating you as a friend."
Li He smiled and drank a full glass. "That's a slip of the tongue. But since we're friends, just let me know if you need any help in the future."
For Four's future, even if it was a trap, he was prepared to jump into it.
"Cheers to friendship!" She raised her glass again.
"Cheers to friendship!"
"I'm going to have a cocktail party soon. I hope you can attend."
Li He waved his hand and declined. "Sorry, I might be leaving tomorrow."
"So soon? The people attending this cocktail party are basically tycoons from all walks of life in Hong Kong. They all have important positions in Hong Kong. I think you can get to know them. There's no harm in interacting with each other. I can introduce you to many of them. "Guo Dongyun played with her glass and continued," Maybe it will be of more help to you than you expected. "
"Sorry." Li He raised his glass again to express his apology.
He did not like that kind of occasion. He just did not like it. He would not like it at any time. He could not pretend to like it.
Guo Dongyun continued to drive after getting out of the gear shift.
Li He asked, "Driving without a license or drunk driving, which is more serious?"
Guo Dongyun smiled and said, "You want to drive?"
"Yes." Li He nodded. The two of them had only drunk a few bottles of beer. He did not feel much after drinking, but Guo Dongyun was already swaying, so he was worried about her driving.
"Here you go." Guo Dongyun threw the car keys to him and sat in the front passenger seat.
"Show me the way. I'll send you back first."
Driving on the congested streets, Li He did not have much patience. When the car was out of the city center, he drove at full speed.
"Left, no, it's right."
"Are you sure?" Li He slowed down the car.
“yes”
After driving for an hour, they arrived at the luxury housing area of Happy Valley.
After entering the building, Li He helped to park the car in the parking lot.
"Bye. I'm leaving." He was ready to take a taxi home. It would not be too late to pay the driver at the door.
"Bye bye." Guo Dongyun burped, then suddenly turned around and shouted, "Hey."
"What's up?"
Guo Dongyun swayed two steps forward and said, "Do you want to go up for a cup of coffee?"
"Thank you. I don't drink coffee."
"I have tea at my place too."
"It's okay. I'll take a taxi home."
Guo Dongyun waved her hand and said, "You don't have to take a taxi. Wait for me upstairs. After I take a bath and sober up, I'll send you home. There's nowhere to take a taxi at this late hour."
"No need. You drank too much and are quite sleepy. Go up and rest. "
Li He saw a taxi coming from afar and quickly ran over to wave at it. He did not have time to chat with Guo Dongyun.
Guo Dongyun was so angry that she kept stomping her feet behind him.
When Li He arrived at the door, he greeted the taxi driver and waited for him to pick up the money. As soon as he got out of the car, Tang Jiajia came over. Li He borrowed some money from him and threw it to the taxi driver.
"Mr. Li, did you drink?"
"Just call me Old Li next time. There's no need to call me Mr. Li. Mr. Li." Five was still watching TV. He asked, "Why aren't you going to bed? Look at the time."
"Brother, wait for a while. This movie is good."
It was hard on her. The TV was all in Cantonese. In order to understand the TV, she had to squint her eyes and stare at the subtitles. Even though many of the subtitles were in traditional Chinese, it was tiring. However, because of the wonderful fighting scenes, she was too lazy to care about it. She still watched it with relish.
"You're only allowed to watch it for an hour."
Li He did not care about her anymore. He went upstairs to wash up and sleep.
After everything was settled, Five finally had to go to class.
At the school gate, she paced back and forth. "I don't want to go."
"If you don't want to get beaten up, then don't dawdle." Li He did not have much patience. He thought that he had done what he needed to do.
A teacher put his arm around her shoulder and leaned over to say in broken Mandarin, "It's okay. Come with me to get to know your classmates, okay? Everyone will welcome you. "
Five glanced at Li He. Li He gave her an encouraging look and then said to the female teacher, "Sorry to trouble you, Teacher Zheng."
Teacher Zheng said with a straight face, "Mr. Li, we are firmly against any form of domestic violence. If there is a next time, I will call the police. I hope that you will have some self-respect."
"Thank you. Never again. Never again. "Li He had no choice but to suck up to her. His girl was in her hands, how could he not suck up to her!
They stayed in Hong Kong for a few more days, either sleeping or fishing. Finally, Da Huang and Ah Cai, who had requested Lu Bo to ship over, arrived!
When Da Huang saw Li He, he almost pounced on him. He had been suffocated in the cargo hold of the plane.
Ah Cai was the most conscientious. When he saw Old Madam Yu sobbing, he licked the back of her hand as if he was telling her how much he missed her. This made Old Madam Yu cry. Yu Dehua said disdainfully, "A beast will always be a beast."
Old Madam Yu scolded back, "You little beast."
"I'm worse than a beast!" Yu Dehua was jealous.
Da Huang had not eaten for a few days. The crab on the beach, which was the size of a palm, went into his stomach and was overjoyed.
On Five's rest day, the chauffeur and Tang Jiajia went to pick her up. When they came back, they saw Da Huang hugging her neck and not letting go. Da Huang drooped its head. As long as it was not stupid, it knew that its good days were over.
Li He asked Five, "How's school?"
He was worried that Five would be ostracized in school.
Five said, "It's alright."
"Really?"
"Yeah. The teachers are good too. "
"Then I'll leave tomorrow. I'll listen to Sister Tang here from now on, okay?"
"Yeah."
Li He prepared to leave the next day. At night, he had just fallen asleep when someone knocked on the door.
He opened the door and saw Five standing at the door in his pajamas.
"Why aren't you sleeping?"
"Brother, I'm scared."
"What are you scared of? I'm here. Study well here, and I'll ask me to visit you when I'm free, okay? "
Five crawled under his sheets. "I'll sleep with you."
"Okay." Li He patted her head lovingly. "There's a phone here too. You can call me or me. If anyone bullies you, tell me and I'll beat them up, okay? "
"Yeah." She hugged Li He's neck and did not let go.
Li He felt the wetness on his face and his nose turned sour. "Why are you crying? I'll visit you when I'm free. If they don't bully you, you're not allowed to bully them either. Be nice to them. "
The next morning, he woke up. Looking at Five who was sleeping soundly on the bed, he did not wake her up. Instead, he dragged his luggage out of the house and gently closed the door behind him.
The two female bodyguards had also woken up early and were training in the yard.
Li He said, "I don't want to cause trouble in Hong Kong, but I'm not afraid of causing trouble either. As long as she's in the right, I'll let you two do whatever you want. But if something happens to her, don't expect you two to escape. Do you understand what I mean?"
The two girls nodded. "Understood, Mr. Li."
Li He and Pinsong got into the car and the chauffeur sent them to the airport.
After driving for a while, Pinsong nudged him. "Brother, look behind you."
He looked into the rearview mirror and saw Da Huang chasing after them. He asked the chauffeur to stop the car and carried Da Huang into the car before sending him back.
Da Huang was chained to the metal chain. Seeing Li He disappear into the distance, he tried his best to get rid of the chain and let out a wild cry!
It was already afternoon when he got off the plane, but he caught up with Four to rest.
Lao Si made some food for her. "Ah Niang called."
"What did she ask?"
"Just ask Qin Zi."
"Call her back later and tell her that everything's fine." Li He finished a bowl of noodles and continued, "Prepare your school report and other information. Also, Li Qiuhong. Both of you. "
