The conversation between Xu Tingsheng and Zhou Yuandai continued until early morning.
Zhou Yuandai, who was getting a little tired, seemed to have finally finished talking, or showing off her reborn "brilliant" life.
"It's time to get back to the topic." Zhou Yuandai stood up and said, "The people who were under the gun that I showed you yesterday, plus the ones that I think you care about, who are not under the gun for the time being... I have prepared one for you. list."
She handed a piece of paper to Xu Tingsheng, on which besides those who had appeared on the computer screen, the names of Xu Tingsheng's younger sister Xu Qiuyi, Wu Yuewei, Apple and others were added.
"Once any of your family members or friends acted aggressively. Or you yourself... Unfortunately, I found out that you were lying to me. One sentence, one time, choose one...you choose yourself."
"Don't worry about me... everything can be done, it's just a little more laborious and riskier."
Xu Tingsheng looked at the list in his hand and was unable to answer for a while.
"How about it, did you secretly sort it in your heart?" Zhou Yuandai asked, staring into his eyes, "Or I made a mistake in judging, and there are actually people in it who you are willing to die... Family? Friends? You want, Or a woman you don't want?"
"Wu Yuewei? Apple? Or do you want to fill in Lu Zhixin and choose her first? I agree."
She is pressing hard.
"I didn't intend to lie to you. Since you know that I care about these people, you should believe me. I don't dare to take risks." Xu Tingsheng replied calmly.
"Then you explain to me about Apple and Symbian first."
"That's just to test whether you are a reborn person. Because you and I both know that it won't affect you too much as the result will be."
Zhou Yuandai lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "Okay, the second... Is investing in Wall Street intentionally misleading? In April, New Century Financial Corporation, the second largest subprime mortgage company in the United States, went bankrupt. How to explain it?"
"In August, the Federal Reserve will take action, stock market prices will rebound, and Wall Street's confidence will stabilize. The US government has successfully passed on the crisis. Therefore, now is the best time to buy."
Xu Tingsheng did not avoid Zhou Yuandai's gaze at all.
"Lies will kill people. You pick a person to die." Zhou Yuandai said.
"I know." Xu Tingsheng nodded.
Zhou Yuandai stared at him for a long time, and finally said, "Okay, then I'll wait until August. But you have to stay and wait together."
She paused, and then said: "Record a video of your family, calm their emotions, and stabilize them. Especially your father, the level of contact is quite high... I don't want anyone to behave aggressively. In other words, I I hope we can cooperate happily."
"Okay." Xu Tingsheng responded without making unnecessary struggles.
After Zhou Yuandai left, a black man walked into the meeting room, set up a small video camera, and pointed it at Xu Tingsheng.
Xu Tingsheng adjusted his emotions, controlled his expression, and said:
"Dad, let me make a long story short. I don't know if you find it strange that our family's development has been helped by gods in the past few years... In fact, behind my son, there are indeed noble people who help us all the time.
Now that I have graduated from university, I have time, and it happens that the nobleman has a major event that I want to help complete. The matter is not dangerous, but the content involved is as large as the wrestling between countries in the financial market, so it must be kept secret. I also had to leave for a while.
In the next two years at most, there may not be many opportunities to contact the family. Dad, you have to relax and pay attention to your health.
Only you, Dad, can watch this video, so in the following time, you not only have to adjust yourself, but also help to comfort and take care of everyone else... It's difficult, it's hard work.
The last sentence, Dad, you are the person I admire most in my life. I'm sure you'll be fine. "
The video was checked by Zhou Yuandai, and it appeared in Dad Xu's car the next day.
On the same day, Xu Tingsheng flew directly to Japan in Zhou Yuandai's private plane... Zhou Yuandai planned to let him stay in Japan until August, and then go to the United States.
…
Xiang Ning still stayed there, waiting. On Friday night, Xu Tingsheng did not come back. Confused, angry and sad, Xiang Ning unknowingly slept on the sofa all night, and was woken up by Du Jin in the morning.
Du Jin also didn't know about Xu Tingsheng.
Saturday.
Sunday.
Xiang Ning was worried at first, but when she had the courage to call and inquire, Huang Yaming and others told her that Xu Tingsheng was just on a business trip abroad and forgot to bring his mobile phone... She was relieved and went back to the school in the district.
The next weekend, she met Xu Tingsheng's father, who was almost her father-in-law's Xu Jianliang.
"We had a conflict. It's all because I was spoiled by him and too self-willed. But, I'm fine now, and he also said that he would stay here... for a few miles around." Xiang Ning had already begun to feel Xu Tingsheng's behavior at this point. Going away may have something to do with me, I feel ashamed, and I can't help but feel very sorry.
"Then he will definitely come back to you. You have to trust him. Also, try hard to get into a good university... Then he will be very happy."
Dad Xu's reassurance made Xiang Ning calm down temporarily.
Similarly, Dad Xu had to endure his inner worries and even pain to comfort many people, including his family members, including Huang Yaming and others.
Of course, Dad Xu knew that things were definitely not as simple as what Xu Tingsheng said in the video. Even if there were some noble people, this time, the other party should be asking Xu Tingsheng for a high price and reward.
It's just that for a while, he didn't dare to act rashly... and he didn't dare to let others act rashly.
Huang Yaming also received countless inquiries. Among Xu Tingsheng's friends, most of them would think of him first if they had doubts about Xu Tingsheng's sudden disappearance.
According to Xu's father's order, Huang Yaming was also appeasing others, although in fact, everyone could sense something was wrong.
"If you feel worried, help Tingsheng to do a good job with the things left behind. What's the point of chirping?!" In the end, Huang Yaming had no choice but to be simple and rude, blocking everyone back with one sentence.
Anxiety and depression spread everywhere.
When Wu Yuewei and Apple unexpectedly came to find Xiang Ning together; when Lu Zhixin, who had nowhere to ask, stood alone in front of Teacher Fang's house on the weekend when Fu Cheng came home; when Xu's mother started arguing with Xu's father...
At the same time, Hucheng, Zhicheng, Xingchen, Bingzhou mining area, and all industries related to Xu Tingsheng are developing explosively. Although they didn't know if doing so would be useful to Xu Tingsheng, but only by doing something for him, everyone could feel a little bit at ease.
…
Japan, Hokkaido, early morning.
Xu Tingsheng sat at the dining table and had breakfast.
His current state is very strange, most of the time he lives leisurely under surveillance, occasionally, he also participates in some meetings of Zhou Yuandai Group, like a non-staff director.
Zhou Yuandai would ask his opinion, but not much, and would not introduce it to others.
On this day, Zhou Yuandai, who rarely showed up, sat down opposite Xu Tingsheng with breakfast.
"You have helped so many people... But when you are like this, everyone else is just living a good life, with family, lover, wealth... No one can help you. How do you feel?"
After Zhou Yuandai finished asking, she looked at Xu Tingsheng playfully, as if expecting his loss and pain.
Xu Tingsheng ate his breakfast in silence without speaking.
There are no people beside him, but those people are in his chest... It is because of them that he has the courage to face Zhou Yuandai.
Hearts follow me to fight.
