In the evening, Chen Xing came to Yun Hua Hotel. Xue Jinbao called at noon and found out that he had returned to Yun Tian today, so he asked him to have dinner together. Zheng Jing grabbed the phone and said that she would treat Chen Xing to dinner.
When Chen Xing arrived at the hotel, Zheng Jing and the others had already arrived. Seeing Chen Xing, Zheng Jing stood up with a smile. I can finally treat the three of you to dinner tonight. I'm really sorry about last night. It's rare for old classmates to get together, but I didn't treat you well. Not only did I let you eat noodles at home, but I also encountered a lot of trouble.
Zheng Jing, don't be so polite. Besides, we enjoyed the noodles at your house last night. Xue Jinbao smiled.
Chen Xing also sat down at this time and smiled. Jinbao is right. It's fate that we can get together after so many years. It's boring to be too polite.
The main thing is that I didn't treat you well. Last night, you encountered those annoying things at home. I'm really sorry. Zheng Jing smiled bitterly.
Didn't Jinbao help you pay off the money first? This matter is over. Don't think too much about it. Just return the money to Jinbao in the future. Sun Yunlu smiled.
That's right. Anyway, Jinbao is a rich man. He probably doesn't care about that little bit of money. Chen Xing smiled and echoed. His eyes swept over Sun Yunlu and Xue Jinbao's faces. Looking at the vague intimacy between the two, Chen Xing was secretly amused. It seemed that this pair of old lovers might rekindle their old love.
As the few of them chatted happily, Zheng Jing, who had just finished ordering, suddenly looked at Chen Xing and asked, "Chen Xing, did you help me pull some strings in my husband's case?"
No. Chen Xing was stunned and looked at Zheng Jing in confusion. Why did you suddenly ask this?
That's strange. Today, Li Xiangda called me and said that he wanted to talk to me. His attitude was surprisingly polite, so I came back in the afternoon with Yun Lu and Jinbao. Zheng Jing thought about the conversation with Li Xiangda in the afternoon. Her face was still full of confusion. She didn't know if he took the wrong medicine. He said that he wanted to reconcile with me and would try to help my husband get released on medical parole in advance.
Was that so? Chen Xing was a little surprised. He had only asked Tan Wenlan to record down the information about Zheng Jing's husband and had not passed it on to anyone else. Hearing Zheng Jing's words, Chen Xing was obviously confused. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "No matter what, it's good for you."
It's a good thing, but I'm afraid they're up to something. Zheng Jing frowned, but she quickly relaxed. After talking with Li Xiangda in the afternoon, her mood was much better. Not only could her husband be released from prison, but Li Xiangda also said that Li Xiangda would take out the money that originally belonged to her husband. This made Zheng Jing very happy.
By the way, Jinbao, I might be able to give you the ten million in a few days. Zheng Jing turned to Xue Jinbao. When she met with Li Xiangda at home in the afternoon, Xue Jinbao and Sun Yunlu were shopping alone on the street, so they didn't know about it.
I don't lack money. Zheng Jing, you don't have to think about paying me back all the time. Xue Jinbao laughed.
If you have money, you have to pay it back. How can you keep relying on it? Zheng Jing smiled. In the afternoon, Li Xiangda also mentioned the money. I guess he will soon return the money that belongs to my husband.
Zheng Jing, the Li Xiangda you mentioned is your husband's business partner? Chen Xing asked.
Yes, it's him, the son of Li Baoguan, the deputy mayor of Chengguan District. Zheng Jing said.
When Chen Xing heard this, he suddenly understood. The day before yesterday, when Tan Wenlan was asked to record Zheng Jing's matter, he was sitting at the side, so he naturally heard it. He knew that Li Xiangda originally opened a restaurant chain company with Zheng Jing's husband, which was quite prosperous. Later, Zheng Jing's husband, Fan Wenbin, invested in another business alone. Because of the lack of funds, he wanted to withdraw from the restaurant chain company. According to the previous agreement with Li Xiangda, Li Xiangda used thirty million to buy Fan Wenbin's shares in the company. However, after the two sides signed the contract, Li Xiangda refused to pay. Originally, Li Xiangda would lose the case if this kind of thing was brought to court. In the end, Fan Wenbin was sentenced for commercial fraud, while Li Xiangda was not punished at all.
This was probably the cause and effect of the matter. Of course, these things were unilaterally narrated by Zheng Jing, and there was no third party to prove it. Therefore, Chen Xing asked Tan Wenlan to investigate and collect evidence, because they couldn't simply rely on an oral statement when they were transferred to the local authorities in the future. At this moment, when Zheng Jing said that Li Xiangda took the initiative to settle the matter and wanted to return the money, Chen Xing soon felt that something was wrong.
Zheng Jing, according to what you said before, not only did Li Xiangda take your husband's shares but he didn't pay for them, he even sent your husband to prison. Logically speaking, his goal was to take over your husband's shares without spending a single cent. Now that he has achieved his goal, he's taking the initiative to pay for your husband's medical parole instead. Isn't this a little abnormal? Chen Xing said.
I said it was abnormal, so I was worried that he was up to something again. Zheng Jing smiled bitterly. Otherwise, when I heard that my husband could be released immediately and that I could get back 30 million yuan, I wouldn't have been so happy.
Zheng Jing, anyway, you're poor now, so there's nothing for him to worry about. So, don't worry about whether he's up to something. As long as your husband can be released and the money can be taken out, you can be happy. Don't think too much. Sun Yunlu comforted him.
At this moment, Xue Jinbao looked in Chen Xing's direction. He didn't tell Sun Yunlu and Zheng Jing about Chen Xing's real identity. He only said that he worked in a government unit and came to Beiqing on business. However, knowing Chen Xing's identity, he couldn't help but think that Chen Xing played a role in this.
Xue Jinbao looked at Chen Xing inquisitively. Seeing Chen Xing shake his head slightly, Xue Jinbao felt strange and smiled. Zheng Jing, this matter is really a little strange, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise. In any case, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing for you.
As they were talking, Chen Xing's phone rang. He took out his phone and looked at the number. Chen Xing couldn't help but get up. He gestured to them and walked to the side to answer the phone.
Deputy Team Leader Chen, we have received another piece of evidence sent over anonymously. Tan Wenlan said on the phone.
Oh, where did you receive it? Chen Xing's expression changed.
At the entrance of the military guest house. When we just came back, someone on a motorcycle passed by and threw it at us. Tan Wenlan said.
