Film and Television: I, Xu Lei, won over Chen Shuting

Page 251

Therefore, they all knew exactly what kind of temperament Wang Xuhui was.

So if the other party really wants to cause trouble, they have no choice but to give in, since Wang Xuhui always gets into trouble.

His grandfather would always step in to smooth things over for him. If he really offended this old man, who knows how difficult his future would be.

"If you hadn't said anything before, I might have given you face and let the matter pass."

But now that you've suddenly said that, oh, I suddenly don't want to go outside anymore. I think it's pretty good here.

After saying that, he gave him a very contemptuous smile, which was clearly a deliberate act of going against Xu Lei.

Gao Xiaochen knew who this guy was and who he was leaning against.

But he was unhappy when he saw how his boss was being insulted.

"You brat, I've always let you have your way, but do you really think you're something special?"

Just because I spoil you doesn't mean I'm always afraid of you before I get angry.

You better watch your mouth. Do as I say, and don't try to act tough with me.

Gao Xiaochen was really pushed to the limit at that time.

"This is the real you. You always pretend to be so gentle and refined."

Xu Lei was somewhat surprised to see that the cauliflower had finally revealed its most ferocious side.

But then I felt very gratified, even though they were doing business with their doors open.

However, we cannot allow ourselves to be bullied by such people and not dare to speak up; doing so would be a serious loss of our dignity.

"I really don't like to talk to him normally, and I don't care how much trouble he causes or makes a fuss."

I was just trying to appease him like a child, but now he's treating you like this, I just can't take it anymore. I'm going to teach him a lesson he won't forget.

Wang Xuhui was somewhat surprised, after all, he usually treated this older brother with utmost respect.

Unexpectedly, he described it as comforting a child, which was not only surprising but also unbelievable.

Seeing the look in his eyes, Xu Lei felt somewhat helpless.

"This Mr. Gao, he used to be even more of a party animal than you, always getting into fights and brawls, and he's been in jail quite a few times."

Do you think you're the only tough one in the world? That's why I have to give you some advice.

Don't always treat others like fools; everyone has a competitive side.

However, you should also grow up a bit and remember that you have your grandfather backing you up.

But he can't support you forever. Take advantage of your youth and see the error of your ways.

Although they were somewhat surprised by Wang Xuhui's identity, the other party was not willing to back down so easily.

He was still thinking about continuing to fight him, and his underlings kept mentioning it from time to time.

"We need to go home early today. Tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday, and we agreed to sleep at home tonight."

When his underling mentioned it, Xiao Wang Xuhui, who already had nowhere to vent his anger, took it all out on his underling.

"Young master, I have something to do today. We'll see how things go from here. There's a long road ahead, so don't get too cocky."

After saying that, he turned and left. Xu Lei couldn't eat the seafood anymore, and the owner felt very guilty.

Xu Lei helped him solve a big problem without causing him any loss.

He didn't know how to repay the young man's kindness, so he quickly had someone bring him another serving.

"We can't finish that last serving. How about I open a private room for you guys?"

Xu Lei nodded slightly.

"I still don't know your surname, boss."

The boss scratched his head sheepishly.

"My surname is Li, but they all call me Li Xiao'er."

Xu Lei laughed when he heard the name; the boss was a very honest person.

"You don't seem to be from the South; your accent sounds like you're from the North."

Mr. Li was surprised when he heard Xu Lei say that.

"I've heard you're from the North for a while now, and your straightforward manner is just too much. You're definitely a Northerner. I'm so sorry about tonight."

He's just a complete hoodlum who comes here every few days to cause trouble.

We're used to it, and out of respect for his grandfather, we don't want to make things too ugly with him.

Although Xu Lei knew that this kid had his grandfather's backing, he didn't know what kind of background his grandfather had.

So I'm actually quite curious.

"Boss, you may not know this, but his grandfather was a well-known tycoon here. He did make a lot of money before that."

He left behind some assets, but didn't pass them all on to his spendthrift grandson.

This is probably the only good thing he's ever done. Also, his grandfather did a lot of charity work before.

Several streets in this area have benefited from his grandfather's kindness in some way. He was a renowned philanthropist.

Upon hearing Gao Xiaochen's words, Xu Lei nodded in sudden understanding, while the boss smiled slightly.

"Right? Back when I first moved here, I didn't know anyone or anything, and people would bully us outsiders."

So he suffered a lot of grievances at the time, but his grandfather helped him through it all, and there was no money for the child to go to school at that time.

When his grandfather heard about the second phase of the project, he took out money for our family to help us out without saying a word.

We must all remember this kindness, though we don't know how it came to be, but it's thanks to his grandson.

Li Xiaoer hesitated at this point, and Xu Lei naturally understood that there was something else hidden behind this.

No wonder the boss didn't dare say anything when he saw this guy running rampant on his turf.

They didn't reprimand him further, only because of his grandfather's sake.

"Mr. Li is a grateful person."

Xu Lei smiled slightly, but he felt that no matter how grateful he was, he should repay the kindness.

No one should bully them.

"I don't think Wang Xuhui will let this go so easily. You need to be careful these days."

You have to be extra careful when you go out and do things.

She was puzzled when her boss suddenly reminded her like that.

"What's wrong, boss? I've never seen you this meticulous before."

Chapter 296 Not in Control of One's Own Fate

Xu Lei shook his head, feeling that he was often powerless to control his own destiny while away from home.

"I just ran into that boss earlier and it made me think that people are really unpredictable."

You said that if Boss Li lets Wang Xuhui off this time, he won't cause trouble again.

Judging from the situation, this has probably been a disturbance at his shop more than once, and his grandfather probably doesn't even know about it.

Nobody wants to go to someone's house to complain about something like this.

Moreover, since they had previously been kind to him, he would simply use this gesture as a way of repaying that kindness.

But Xu Lei felt increasingly unhappy, thinking that he should tell the old man's grandson about this.

They're sure to cause even bigger trouble in the future.

"Boss, you seem to have something on your mind."

The boss hadn't treated us well tonight, so the other party was somewhat surprised.

If I'm afraid that my boss isn't eating well or happy here, then that would be my fault.

"It's nothing, I just have some feelings on my mind, so don't worry too much."

"By the way, who is that old man? I've never heard of him before."

He finished speaking with a curious look on his face.

"His old man has been retired for many years and hasn't come out at all."

I heard he's been enjoying his retirement at home lately, and tomorrow is his birthday banquet, so we should go over there.

Besides this identity, Xu Lei is also the president of this chamber of commerce.

The old man was honest and trustworthy in his business dealings, which is why he has such a large business today.

Moreover, he has good interpersonal relationships, and nearby businesses will all be going over to visit tomorrow.

Xu Lei nodded slightly, as if he had remembered something.

"Okay, let's go together tomorrow."

Gao Xiaochen was a little surprised. In the two days since her boss arrived, one thing after another had happened, and she hadn't even had a chance to let him have some fun.

"Boss, I've arranged everything for you tomorrow. Let's go have some fun nearby. I've already rented a boat."

Xu Lei knew that he wanted to get out and clear his head, but this matter was not resolved properly.

Gao Xiaochen is sure to be in big trouble, judging from the other party's gritted teeth.

Moreover, Wang Xuhui isn't one to hold grudges; he'll definitely bring this up later, and that would be a real problem then.

"Trust me, if you don't handle this matter properly, he will definitely come looking for trouble later."

I've seen that guy before; he always looked like he wanted to eat people alive, and he looks even more like it now, so don't worry.

After Xu Lei finished speaking, the other party became extremely excited.

"It's still the boss. He's good to me, so I know he won't abandon me and leave me to suffer alone."

After she finished speaking, she put on a coquettish expression.

"Disgusting! Get out of here! If you keep doing this, I'm not helping you anymore!"

Gao Xiaochen smiled helplessly after speaking.

“When I left, your mother was very worried about you and said she would come over in a couple of days.”

The other party was quite surprised to hear this.

"What? Why are you here again? I told you long ago that there would be no problem here, but he just wouldn't believe me."

Xu Lei shook his head helplessly.

"Your aunt was worried about you, she knew you were all alone here and wouldn't be able to handle anything, so she asked me to bring you a few bottles of chili sauce."

Gao Qilan suddenly remembered that Gao Xiaochen's eyes lit up as soon as he heard there was chili sauce.

Gao Qilan had seen Chen Shuting before, so she took this thing with her.

"Oh dear, look at all the time we've come out here, but I've been busy doing all the work for you."

He shook his head helplessly.

"I will remember your kindness, boss. Don't worry."

"You definitely won't have come here for nothing."

Xu Lei knew, of course, that he had made very rapid progress these days, and there were always unexpected surprises.

Xu Lei was very excited and even more aware that he had seen all these improvements.

"It's good that you're tolerant, but you can't lose your fighting spirit just because you're tolerant."

You know what? I know you don't want to make things worse, so...

I always thought I could just let this go, but I can tell that Gao Xiaochen isn't someone you can just tolerate and let bygones be bygones.

You must tell me if anything happens, even though I've handed over this huge (bhbj) mess to you.

But that doesn't mean I'm ignoring what happens in the future.

Xu Lei's words deeply moved the other party, who felt reassured to know that he had such a powerful backer.

"Boss."
