Evening, by the Huangpu River.
"Although forgiveness is a virtue sometimes, it is also a kind of betrayal." Li Muye said to Yuan Chengde beside him: "This is like your wife stealing someone. You can forgive her, but you can't continue to love her. , because the feeling is gone.”
"Fortunately, I don't have a wife, and I don't have anyone to forgive." Yuan Chengde tidied up neatly, wearing a splendid Tang suit, and he had a bit more of an immortal spirit. Then he said: "But you will have a wife again soon. For the sake of your wife, you have to be generous."
"There are three reasons why I agree to He Kunzhen's request." Li Muye asked intently, "Do you know what the three reasons are?"
Yuan Chengde said: "The first is of course to seize Jin Yuan Zhenghe's channels for your use, but this should not be the most important reason, because as long as you compromise with Chen Miao, you can achieve this goal, so there is a second , I think you want to prove something to Chen Miao."
"Well said."
Li Muye acknowledged: "She encouraged He Kunzhen to cooperate with me. She actually wanted to use my mouth to swallow up He Kunzhen's property. Once the Yakutia project is formed, the investment will be a bottomless pit. Sooner or later, the entire financial resources will be lost." Yuan Zheng dragged He Quan in, and Chen Miao had many channels to apply for a national loan for this project, and tied Lao He to jump into the hole. Of course I didn't lose anything by doing this, but Lao He was different, even if it succeeded in the end , Chen Miao can also use those loans to take away the meat he eats."
Yuan Chengde said: "He Kunqi didn't think so much at first, but he has a habit in recent years of asking me for my opinion before important events."
"You could see Chen Miao's plan at that time, and your vision is much better than mine." Li Muye said.
"I exposed the key and scared him so much that He Kunzhen knew that he couldn't resist. He is a master who would rather give up his life than his wealth, so he had no choice but to find a way on you." Yuan Chengde said: "The one where you used the boat to become famous. Afterwards, I suggested that he try your quality first to see if you have the ability and character to help him complete his plan to escape."
"I was originally too lazy to pay attention to his troubles, but what you said to me made me change my mind. At that time, I thought why should I let that bitch use me as a gun?" Li Muye said with a smile. : "If he just made those little moves behind Lao He's back, I would be too lazy to pay attention to him."
Yuan Chengde said: "So, please give me face again. Not only forgive Lao He, but also forgive Shen Peijun and Zhang Haichao, because I designed this."
"Do you still care about cause and effect?" Li Muye asked with a smile, "Does it really matter to you whether I forgive them or not?"
"Just respect the ghosts and gods and keep them at a distance." Yuan Chengde said seriously: "What I care about is that my state of mind is impartial."
This was a very profound and somewhat elusive reason, but Li Muye understood it and nodded: "I'll tell you the third reason, it's you!"
He continued: "I have to help you return the favor, and I have to give you the confidence to get out of that cage. I want to prove to you that power is scary, but the fear in your heart is the iron rod that builds the cage. You hide in the cage. Living quietly inside will not solve your pain."
Yuan Chengde sighed deeply and said, "I can indeed live a better life, but if that's the case, I'm afraid I won't be able to face my heart and my dead family."
"It's too easy to be locked in a cage. It's a waste of time for a man to not take revenge when he has a grudge." Li Muye said: "When I heard Lao He talk about your experience, I thought that your matter was not that simple, so I carefully considered every detail. Finally, I think you were set up."
Yuan Chengde said: "So you knew from the beginning that I was not really crazy."
Li Muye said: "I also know that you were drugged before you bit off that girl's nose. This person has no idea how much hatred he has for you, and he wants to destroy you wholeheartedly."
Yuan Chengde's eyes were cold and he asked: "Why do you think so?"
Li Muye said: "I just had this suspicion before I met you. After seeing you in person and hearing a few words from you, I was convinced." He added, "You entered the cage on your own initiative. A lunatic would not act like this." Torture, that is definitely not something a rational and intelligent person like you can do, so I think there is something fishy here."
"That person was my classmate in college." When Yuan Chengde talked about this person, his hatred was hard to suppress, his facial features were distorted, and he gritted his teeth and said: "He used to be my best friend. At that time, we talked about almost everything, academically. We are rivals and partners who go hand in hand. He is a few years older than me in life and has always taken care of me like a big brother."
"So you never imagined at that time that he would be so jealous of you, even to the point of wanting to destroy you."
"He later did what you said." Yuan Chengde said: "At that time, we were working on a small invention project together, and when it was about to succeed, one day I told him that I liked Guan Muxue, and then he He encouraged me to boldly confess my feelings to others, and I said yes without much thought, and he bought two bottles of Coca-Cola and asked me to take them to Guan Muxue." At this point, he sighed again, and his voice became less intense. There is more hatred and a little more sadness.
Li Muye asked: "Has Coke been tampered with?"
Yuan Chengde nodded and said: "Yes, you were right. I was plotted by him. After Guan Muxue rejected me in an uncharacteristic way, I suddenly became very manic, and then I rushed towards her crazily. And that day she She was not as gentle as before, she started fighting me very fiercely, and I bit her nose off."
Li Muye said: "I think the hatred between the two of you should not end there."
"Yes." Yuan Chengde said: "Later I was expelled from the school and my future was ruined. Our family compensated Guan Muxue's family a sum of money because of my incident. The family's living standard plummeted. I had no choice but to move out of the building and rent a house. Bungalow, I was really in a lot of pain at that time.”
"Why did that person find you again?"
"Because of the project we jointly researched." Yuan Chengde said: "The patent was adopted by relevant departments and applied in the aerospace industry. He wanted to enjoy the results exclusively, but the leader of the Ministry of Industry wanted me to participate in this project, so he They attacked me again. One night, a fire suddenly broke out in our rented house, and I escaped because I was not at home that night."
"What did you do?" Li Muye said: "After that incident, many people suspected that you were the real culprit of the arson, but you never told anyone clearly about your whereabouts that night."
Yuan Chengde hesitated, but finally said: "I went to meet someone that night."
"Guan Muxue?" Li Muye judged from the way he spoke.
"Yes." Yuan Chengde clenched his fists with both hands and said: "She had just had plastic surgery at that time, and she was even more beautiful than before. She was unexpectedly nice to me at the time, and then I stayed at her place for the night. When I woke up Come on, she left, our whole family was buried in the flames, everyone, including the police, thought I was suspected of a major crime, so what if I wasn't crazy at the time?"
"Your madness has completely ruined your future."
"If you can't even save your life, what future do you have?" Yuan Chengde said with a wry smile: "In these years, I have been thinking about resolving the grudges, but what I got is the news that that person has risen to the top step by step. He is now in the power of Japan, and the technology company is A national-level strategic partner, holding government orders, is still exploring overseas markets. It can be said that the trend has been achieved, and it is almost impossible to overthrow him."
"Is this man less than forty years old?" Li Muye said, "He is quite talented."
Yuan Chengde said: "Scheming, means, and strategies are all the assets of a hero."
"Let's not beat around the bush. There are many ways to take revenge. It can be direct or complicated. The former is simple and neat, while the latter is more relieving. If you choose the former, you only need to tell me your name now."
"I choose the complicated one. With such deep hatred, it would be too easy for him to die. It would be too unfair to my family and me."
"Since he is so jealous of you, it means that at least in his heart, your talents and abilities are not inferior to his. In the past, you didn't have the chance to fight with him because you lacked a platform. Now I will set up this platform for you. The next step is up to you. That’s it.”
"Revenge is not urgent." Yuan Chengde said: "The way of heaven is orderly, and people have ups and downs of misfortunes and blessings. He has not climbed to the highest level yet."
"Okay, you can do whatever you say." Li Muye said with a smile: "When you want to do something specific, whether it's literary or military, just tell me."
Yuan Chengde suddenly turned around to face Li Muye with a solemn expression, then knelt on the ground and sternly refused Li Muye's support, saying: "You have to accept this bow no matter what, it is not for gratitude, but a ceremony. From now on Yuan Chengde’s life is yours.”
Li Muye's move to help him was just a symbolic gesture. Otherwise, with the speed of his movements, he would not even have a chance to bend his knees if he really wanted to help him. He nodded and said, "Get up."
Yuan Chengde stood up and said: "There must be a title. It is inappropriate to call me Lord."
"Then call me boss." Li Muye said in an understatement.
"Yes, it's better to call me boss these days. Officials can be called bosses, and business people can even be called bosses." Yuan Chengde said: "In the past, before the old monk passed away, dignitaries and dignitaries often came to inquire about the future and accompany them. Secretaries and the like like to call me this way, it is said that it is more subtle and natural to call me this way."
This guy winked and looked vulgar. Li Muye looked at him and said with a smile: "The boss is the boss, and you will be my secretary from now on. I have always been a vulgar person, so it's not hard to find such a vulgar secretary like you." They complement each other, now is it time to talk about what to do about the matter in front of us?"
"Shanghai's culture, business, and politics all have their own sect, commonly known as the Shanghai sect." Yuan Chengde said: "Even if you, boss, are like a dragon crossing the river, don't think you can do whatever you want in this sea. Shen Peijun is a giant businessman on the sea, which is not only reflected in his wealth. On top of that, there is also the unique business culture and heritage passed down by his family. He is a first-class figure in the Shanghai business circle. Compared with Zhang Haichao, he is a bit out of the ordinary. If you first reject Shen Peijun, but then accept Zhang Haichao, I think Something is wrong.”
Sure enough, it was a word that awakened the dreamer. Li Muye's eyes lit up and he asked: "According to what you see, what's the plan?" (End of Chapter)
