Song Daming's hands trembled slightly and his eyes drooped. His heart was not calm at all. He tried hard to relax his face and forced a stiff smile. Song Daming said, "Brother Chen, I remember that I did transfer 200,000 yuan to you when I bought the house. Give me your account number and I will transfer the money to you immediately tomorrow. Well, this money has been borrowed for some years. I will calculate the interest clearly and pay you together."
"Daming, do you have a written receipt for borrowing money from me? Or is there anyone who can prove it? " Chen Ming sat leisurely, looking as if he had Song Daming in his grasp. At that time, Song Daming was greedy for the money and accepted it without holding anything back. This had also become the biggest leverage Song Daming had left for him.
"Brother Chen, aren't you joking a little too much today?" "My father has helped you a lot. Don't forget that everything you have today was given by my father. Without my father, where did you get the throne of the bureau chief?"
Song Daming really experienced what it meant to be regretful. At that time, when he wanted to buy a house, he did not say that he was short of money. With a father who was once the secretary of the county committee, no matter how poor he was, he could not be so poor that he could not even afford a house. Moreover, he bought the house five or six years ago. At that time, the housing prices in Hai City were not as ridiculous as they were now. However, he could not resist the temptation and accepted the 200,000 yuan from Chen Ming. No one would complain about having too much money. Five or six years ago, 200,000 yuan was not a small amount. It was not as devalued as it was now. At this moment, Song Daming intended to talk about friendship with Chen Ming. Without his father's help, Chen Ming would not be who he was today.
"Without the old secretary's help, I indeed would not be who I am today. However, I have been serving your family for so many years. Don't you think I have not repaid the old secretary's kindness?" "You have the nerve to talk to me about this." Chen Ming sneered. "Let's not talk about the old Secretary. Let's talk about you and your sister. How many trivial matters have I helped your two families handle in the past few years? If you need anything, just come and look for me. I've never said anything. No matter how busy I am, I'll find time. I'm the director of a bureau, and I've done this much. Do you think I've let down the old Secretary? I thought that you and your sister kept calling me Brother Chen, so you've always been using me as a scaredy cat in your heart.
Who knows if you've been helping us all these years out of bad intentions? Song Daming muttered in his heart. If it was in the past, he might not have such a thought. Today, Chen Ming threatened him with the two hundred thousand yuan. Song Daming couldn't help but suspect whether Chen Ming had done all those things with bad intentions. He was just waiting for something to happen and drag the Song family down with him. When his sister bought the house, he didn't know if Chen Ming also gave her money. He had never heard his sister mention this, but it was really hard to say whether it was true or not.
Although he was thinking in his heart, Song Daming didn't dare to say a word. Chen Ming was now like a wolf choosing its prey. He didn't dare to annoy Chen Ming. After all, Chen Ming had something on him. After calming down, Song Daming said, "Brother Chen has really worked hard these years. What I said just now was a bit f * cked up. Please don't take it to heart, Brother Chen."
"Take it to heart? "Why would I take it to heart? The old secretary gave me today's future. It's only right for me to do more for your Song Family. Don't you think so, Daming?" Chen Ming asked Song Daming with a smile. His expression was quite sarcastic. He thought he could be half a parent to Song Daming. All these years, he didn't know how much he had done for Song Daming.
Song Daming could only laugh dryly. The Chen Ming of today was too unfamiliar to him. Just as Chen Ming himself had said, in the past, he had always treated Chen Ming as a servant in his heart, and many troublesome matters were handled by Chen Ming. But now, Song Daming did not dare to have such a mentality anymore. He could not wait to cut off all ties with Chen Ming as soon as possible. It was just that in the past, he was only focused on collecting money to his heart's content, but he forgot to leave a backup plan for himself. If he had left a written receipt at that time, he could say that he was borrowing money now. Even if Chen Ming was investigated, he could return the money and cut off all ties with him. But now, it was impossible. Song Daming had every reason to believe that Chen Ming had evil intentions when he gave him the money to buy a house.
"Daming, I just asked you out tonight. It's getting late, and I have to rush back to Xi Men." Chen Ming looked at the time. He was still the same as before, calling Song Daming's name in a very friendly manner, but the meaning behind it was completely different. Chen Ming glanced at Song Daming, then continued speaking in a leisurely manner. These were troubled times, and he did not know if he would have the chance to sit and drink tea with Song Daming like this after he left tonight.
"Look at Brother Chen's gloomy words. Isn't it very convenient for Brother Chen to come to Hai City? He can have tea anytime he wants." Song Daming's eyebrows twitched. Chen Ming's last sentence was obviously to remind him that once something happened, he couldn't escape.
With a big smile, he sent Chen Ming to the car. Chen Ming waved at Song Daming from the car. He gave Song Daming a meaningful look and said with a smile, "Daming, don't send me off. We're friends, so there's no need to be so polite.
"Okay, Brother Chen, take care. Remember to call me next time you are in Hai City." Listening to Chen Ming's words, Song Daming felt like he was about to explode. The stuffiness in his chest made him uncomfortable.
Watching Chen Ming's car turn onto the road, Song Daming kicked it hard and cursed, "Bastard, how dare you threaten me. Why did I mention you, you ingrate, in the first place?"
After cursing for a long time, Song Daming walked into his car, lit a cigarette and started smoking. After cursing for a long time, the real problem was placed in front of him. Chen Ming's intention to talk to him tonight couldn't be clearer. If something happened to Chen Ming, he wouldn't be able to escape. At least, he wouldn't be able to explain the 200,000 yuan. Therefore, Song Daming had to consider an urgent problem. He also had to find someone to help Chen Ming. If Chen Xing continued to investigate, it would be difficult for Chen Ming to stay safe.
Song Daming knew his own ability. He didn't have the ability to find someone to help him. Relying on his father's connections, he had barely managed to become a section chief. However, when it came to finding someone to greet Chen Xing, he really didn't know anyone at that level, so he could only rely on his father. Song Daming knew that Chen Ming must have the same idea. However, thinking that he was threatened by Chen Ming, Song Daming really couldn't bear it.
In the Royal Entertainment City of the provincial capital, Lin Mao was escorted by a few young people as he walked into the entertainment city. He heard someone say in a fawning voice, "Young Master Lin, your father has been promoted, and your reputation is getting better and better. Don't forget to take care of us brothers in the future."
"Go, you guys still need my care?" Lin Mao laughed and scolded him. Then, he walked in, talking and laughing with the crowd. The other young people were also rich and powerful people. Their families all had companies, just like him. Their elders were also people in the system. In the provincial capital, they could be regarded as capable people. In this day and age, as long as you had money and power, there were few things you couldn't do.
"Ah, isn't this Childe Lin? It's rare for Childe Lin to come tonight. Please come in, please." Zhang Fengyue, a vice president of the entertainment city, seemed to have long known that Lin Mao would come. He was waiting downstairs in advance. When he saw Lin Mao, he immediately walked over.
"Hey, look, Childe Lin's social status is different now. There are people everywhere trying to curry favor with him. It seems that we can also bask in Childe Lin's glory tonight." Another young man joked with a smile.
They walked into the entertainment city while talking and laughing. Lin Mao was greeted by Zhang Fengyue, the vice president of the entertainment city, and his face was full of pride. People with a little bit of connections knew that the Royal Entertainment City had a very solid background. The whole 15 floors of the building were all for the Royal Entertainment City, which was also known as the largest and most luxurious entertainment city in the province. It was also very famous in the neighboring provinces. Compared with the Golden Jade Entertainment City in Ximen County, it was really the difference between a chicken and a phoenix.
Usually, when Lin Mao came, this vice president, Zhang Fengyue, often received him personally. However, he had never specially walked downstairs to greet him like today. It showed that Lin Mao's status was very different now. The reason had to be mentioned here. Lin Mao's father, Lin Gang, had been confirmed to be appointed as the executive vice president of the Provincial Department. Although the official appointment had not been transmitted through documents, people with connections could inquire about the news in the province in advance. Lin Gang's appointment was already a done deal. What was worth mentioning was that Lin Gang would continue to be the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau of Jiang City. This time, Lin Gang had more power in his hands. No wonder Childe Lin Mao was so high-spirited.
"Mr. Zhang, you haven't met your mysterious boss yet. Why? Do you have the honor to meet him tonight?" In the luxurious presidential box, Lin Mao joked with Zhang Fengyue. There were several vice presidents in this entertainment city. Lin Mao knew all of them, but no one had seen the mysterious boss.
Hehe, I'm afraid I have to disappoint Childe Lin. Not to mention you, even I haven't seen my boss. I'm just a senior worker. " Zhang Fengyue smiled bitterly. Lin Mao's father, Lin Gang, was going to be the executive vice president of the Provincial Department. He also received the notice to pay more attention to Lin Mao, so he personally went downstairs to greet him today. Zhang Fengyue also admired the mysterious boss of the entertainment city. Nothing could be hidden from him in the provincial government. Sometimes, Zhang Fengyue even suspected that this Royal Entertainment City was opened by some provincial leader.
