1282, winner takes all(1/2)
Seeing the sudden change in Lu Bin's face, the younger brothers around him were puzzled.
The 200-pound monkey hurriedly asked: "Brother Bin, what's the matter?"
"It's probably another harassing call." Lu Bin sighed, but had no choice but to pick up the phone and open the answer button.
At this moment, Lu Bin remained silent, not saying a word, and quietly listening to what the other party was saying.
But after a while, Lu Bin put down the phone again, smiled at everyone and said, "You're crazy. You didn't say anything and you hung up the phone yourself. Who knows who the bastard is who pulled this prank."
"Could it be Zhang Wenchao and his gang who did it?" Gangzi said.
Xiaoliu also said: "I think it's that group of people. If you want Brother Bin to get married, I might as well not invite them."
"Nonsense." Monkey frowned and reminded: "This company must invite all the executives that should be invited. Even if you don't want to see them, the invitations still have to be sent."
"Besides, even if it was Zhang Wenchao and his gang who did it, so what? After all, they haven't brought the matter to light yet, and everyone hasn't turned their backs yet."
"Since Brother Bin is an important backbone in balancing the company's factions, Brother Bin must endure it."
"Monkey is right." After hearing what Monkey said, Lu Bin didn't seem to care.
After all, according to Lu Bin's own words, he was originally a middle faction, but it was only after he was roped in by his father-in-law that the power imbalance between the company's factions was caused.
Therefore, it seems reasonable for Lu Bin to be targeted.
Seeing Gu Chen's confused look, Lu Bin also explained: "Gu Chen, it's okay, isn't it just a harassing call anyway?"
"In our business world, there are many more dirty things than this, and we have long been accustomed to them."
"As long as you can bear it." Gu Chen said.
Lu Bin smiled faintly: "I've long been used to it."
Looking at the young brothers around him, Lu Bin said again: "Come to my house for dinner tonight. I really need to thank you brothers."
"See what Brother Bin said, why are you so polite?"
"That's right, we are all brothers, as we should be."
"Brother Bin is getting married, and his father-in-law is the vice president of the company. From now on, we will have a backer in the company. There are many places we can rely on Brother Bin."
…
Everyone exchanged words with each other and were extremely excited, but they all declined Lu Bin's kindness.
Gu Chen also probably knew that the reason why everyone came to Lu Bin was to let Lu Bin confirm the status of the wedding car.
Now that Lu Bin is satisfied, everyone is ready to go home.
After joking with each other for a while on the spot, Lu Bin sent these young guys away.
Glancing back at Gu Chen, Lu Bin also shook his head and smiled: "I didn't expect these brothers to be so loyal."
"Before, I just told a few of their colleagues who had cars to bring their cars over to make up the numbers. They were all compact cars. Unexpectedly, these guys actually helped me rent a car this time."
"But I just heard you talking about the company's factions, and that Zhang Wenchao, what's going on with this guy?"
Gu Chen is very sensitive to abnormal situations.
Especially to the detriment of one's own friends.
Lu Bin smiled faintly: "Why are you mentioning him? That guy joined the company at the same time as me. His uncle is also a company executive, and my father-in-law has never dealt with him."
"Before, before I joined my father-in-law's camp, Zhang Wenchao could be said to be arrogant and domineering in the company."
"Almost all of us who joined the company were bullied by him. But gradually, everyone discovered that this guy used his position in the company to take private jobs, and was reported by our group, so he has always been resentful."
Taking out a cigarette and lighting it for himself, Lu Bin added: "Just last month, our young guys here stole another big customer of theirs."
"So now Zhang Wenchao definitely hates us. I sent him a wedding invitation just to save face. Whether he comes or not is his business. I hope he doesn't come, but I'm afraid this guy will play tricks on me."
"Are you afraid that he will destroy the wedding venue?" Gu Chen asked.
"Haha." Lu Bin smiled faintly and said truthfully: "To be honest, he has admired my wife for a long time. It's just because Zhang Wenchao belongs to his uncle's camp, so my father-in-law will not consider Zhang Wenchao."
"After all, my father-in-law and his uncle Zhang Wenchao are also enemies."
"But enemies can sometimes be in-laws," Gu Chen said.
Lu Bin smiled faintly: "Maybe, but it won't work here."
Looking at the time, Lu Bin said again: "Let's go upstairs. I've booked a hotel room for you tonight. It's near my home. I'll have to rely on my brothers for help tomorrow."
"Easy to say." Gu Chen smiled slightly.
…
…
6pm.
Gu Chen was dining in the room with Lu Bin's stepfather and his family.
The old man was extremely attentive and kept nagging me for a long time.
Zhang Ye also didn't speak during the entire process, sitting alone on the sofa and eating silently.
The old man glanced at Gu Chen and reminded him, "Gu Chen, I'm asking for your help in Lu Bin's wedding tomorrow."
"Easy to say." Gu Chen couldn't help but say while eating the dishes.
The old man hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's strange to say that this afternoon, I kept receiving calls from strangers, but the other party didn't say a word and didn't know what was going on."
"What?" After hearing what his stepfather said, Lu Bin suddenly became stunned. While looking at Gu Chen, he also asked his stepfather: "What about the unknown phone number? It's a local number in Yangcheng, right?"
"Yes, it's a local number in Yangcheng, but the other party didn't speak. I thought it was selling health care products," the old man said.
"Is it the same number?" Gu Chen asked.
"Yes." The old man nodded.
"How many times have you been beaten?" Gu Chen asked again.
"Okay... It seems like three or four times, maybe five times." The old man looked at Gu Chen, a little confused.
"Damn it, who is this?" Lu Bin's face changed suddenly when he heard this.
At this time, Zhang Ye, who was sitting on the sofa eating, also said: "Not only the old man, I also received this kind of strange call this afternoon."
"Have you received it too?" Lu Bin's eyes were startled, and he looked at everyone with a look of horror on his face and said, "I also received a call like this this afternoon."
"The other party has been silent. No matter how I ask the other party, no one is willing to talk."
"At first I thought it was someone's prank, but now it seems that the matter is far from that simple."
"Could it be Zhang Wenchao, the enemy of the company you often say?" the old man asked.
Lu Bin shook his head: "I have no evidence now, and I don't know if it was him, but based on my feeling, it was probably that guy who did it."
"That guy has always looked down on me. Now that I'm married to the woman he likes, doesn't he hate me to death?"
"Then there's no need to be so mean, right?" Zhang Ye said.
Lu Bin glanced at him: "What do you know? The mall is like a battlefield. Besides, we just snatched a big customer from him last time. This guy has been holding his breath in his heart. He probably wants to take revenge on me."
"Then you have to be careful." Zhang Ye said jokingly.
Lu Bin frowned, said nothing, and continued to put the food into his mouth.
…
…
The next day.
According to the wedding procedure, Gu Chen acted as Lu Bin’s wedding car driver.
At this moment, Lu Bin put on a handsome suit, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand, and dressed up a little with the help of a few young men.
At this moment, three Mercedes-Benz vehicles stopped steadily in front of Lu Bin.
Upon seeing this, Lu Bin quickly left everyone and walked towards the three men.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Liu, and Mr. Xiao, thank you so much."
Lu Bin stepped forward to greet him, his face full of flattery.
The tall man named Mr. Zhang grinned and said, "It's for your father-in-law's sake that I came here to be your driver today. How can you, a brat, become the daughter of Mr. Gao's family?"
"Yeah, why can I become the daughter of Mr. Gao's family? Maybe it's fate." Lu Bin replied with a smile.
It seems that he can see the other party's disdain for him.
Several people came over to help, it seemed that it was because my father-in-law said hello.
The little man named Mr. Liu also came over and said jokingly: "I heard that you also invited Zhang Wenchao today?"
"That's right." Lu Bin nodded and admitted, and said with a slight smile: "After all, he is also a member of the company. Everyone looks down without looking up. Inviting him to come to the wedding is also the intention of my father-in-law and I."
"Mr. Gao is quite open-minded." The fat Mr. Xiao grinned and said jokingly:
"Zhang Wenchao's uncle is at odds with your father-in-law for control of the company, and you even stole his love."
"To be honest, I'm really worried about you. After all, no one knows what tricks this guy will use."
