After hanging up the phone from Ye Qingqing, Chen Hai took out a cigarette and lit it for himself again.
He was struggling in his mind whether he should go to Ye Qingqing's room and repair his water heater, and he was still hesitant for the time being.
If it were another woman who called him at this moment and said that the water heater was broken, the sewer was clogged, etc., he would definitely run over without saying a word.
But Ye Qingqing is different. Her background is too strong.
Just her parents' names can scare a boss like Li Dajiang into calling him Mr. Chen.
After repairing the water heater this time, what should I do next?
If he really dared to eat it all, just say it without admitting it, and not mentioning other people, even her brother Ye Cheng would probably lead his soldiers to chase her all over the world.
Just accept your fate and be with Ye Qingqing?
Chen Hai felt a little shuddered when he thought of what he had experienced this afternoon.
If he had to live like this every day in the future, he would rather be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
"I won't go, I won't go."
"Young people must remember to protect themselves when they go out."
"I am a Taoist who vows to become a real person. All temptations are just a dream to me..."
Shaking his head like a rattle, Chen Hai muttered silently.
After making a decision in his mind, he picked up the phone on the bedside table and dialed it directly.
"Hey, guest room center? There is no hot water in room 1807. It may be that the water heater is broken. Come over and take a look!"
After hanging up the call to room service, Chen Hai sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice.
But after practicing and practicing, he just couldn't find the feeling and could never calm down.
His mind was filled with the shadow of Ye Qingqing, dangling in it.
"I don't have a woman in my heart. I practice nature. It's no wonder that there are many magical skills and secrets in those martial arts novels. If you want to practice this skill, you must first commit suicide."
"Women, especially beautiful women like Ye Qingqing, are the biggest obstacle to my spiritual practice..."
Chen Hai, who couldn't even enter samadhi, looked helpless and sighed.
Since he couldn't practice, he simply stopped practicing and went directly to bed.
"One sheep, two sheep, three sheep..."
He started counting sheep facing the ceiling, and he didn't know when he finally fell asleep.
…
Haizhu City, West District, inside a detention room at a police station.
There are more than twenty people detained in a small space of more than ten square meters.
These people were all caught in the anti-pornography operation tonight due to bad luck.
"Lao Li, you introduced me to a good place on horseback. I didn't even take off my pants, and I was arrested here!"
"Lao Zhang, how do I know that there will be a sudden crackdown on pornography in the city? Last time, I accompanied a client to play there, and it was really fun, okay? We two, this is bad luck!"
"Don't talk nonsense to me. This is the second time I've come here to the mainland. I'm not familiar with it at all. You have a factory here, so you should have some connections, right?"
"I just want to ask, when can we two go out? If this matter today spreads to Taiwan, the face of our old Zhang family will be completely embarrassed by me..."
Li Dajiang and Zhang Zhongxiao, with sad faces, huddled in the corner of the detention room.
Although the two of them are not young anymore, they are quite heroic when they play.
In a room, there were only two men, but there were five or six girls.
When he heard Zhang Zhongxiao asking himself when the two of them could go out, Li Dajiang fell silent and stopped talking.
He does have some connections here, but they were all introduced to him by Ms. Lin from Adi Company.
If Li Dajiang is asked to find someone for help, there is no doubt that what happened tonight will definitely reach the ears of Ms. Lin.
At that time, how will Li Dajiang explain?
If Ms. Lin really fell out with him because of this matter, his Huangxin Shoes Industry might be in trouble.
You know, the current orders in his factory are basically arranged by Ms. Lin for him!
"Two of you, you must be like me, you went to the White Horse Club to play and were caught here?"
The detention room only has a small amount of space, and there are quite a lot of people detained here. Li Dajiang, Zhang Zhongxiao and two others, although they speak in a low voice, their words will inevitably fall into the ears of others.
The person talking to them at the moment was a fat man in his forties with a beer belly next to them.
"I'm telling you, if we don't have a strong enough relationship, if we don't lock him up for two or three days, you just have to accept your fate and don't fantasize about getting out."
"Normally no one would check a place like White Horse Club."
"The reason for this anti-pornography operation, I heard from people, is because the owner of the club offended some ruthless person."
"I also learned about this from my friend when I called others for help. My friend asked me to accept my fate and stay here for two or three days..."
The fat man sighed. He approached Li Dajiang and Zhang Zhongxiao, deliberately lowered his voice, and added another sentence.
"What? You have to be locked up for two or three days?"
Zhang Zhongxiao's expression changed drastically. He gritted his teeth and glared at Li Dajiang: "Old Li, I've been really hurt by you this time!"
"In three days, I have a very important contract to sign on the Taiwan side."
"That contract is related to the ownership of some equity interests in several companies in our family."
"If I can't arrive as scheduled, the loss will be..."
When he said this, Zhang Zhongxiao's face was filled with pain. Looking at his appearance, he was afraid that Li Dajiang's thoughts were in his heart.
Hearing what he said was so serious, Li Dajiang looked guilty. He lowered his head, squatted on the ground, and said nothing.
If what the fat man just said is true, even if Li Dajiang risks falling out with Ms. Lin and using his connections, it may not have much effect at all.
After all, the influence of the people he met was only on the Xiangzhou side where his factory was located, and the West District where the White Horse Club was located was already separated by a large area.
"By the way, Chen Hai..."
Being scolded by Zhang Zhongxiao, he was speechless. With his head almost hanging down to his crotch, he suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up.
"Old Zhang, I know a person, and his relationship is definitely strong enough. Ask him for help, maybe we can get out soon!" Li Dajiang whispered in Zhang Zhongxiao's ear.
"who?"
"That's Chen Hai, the one you bought his snuff bottle from before!"
"He? When I saw him like that, I knew he was a mud-legged guy from the country. He has such great ability? Can he let us out? Could it be that he is deceiving you?"
Zhang Zhongxiao curled his lips with disdain and didn't believe Li Dajiang's words at all.
"Old Zhang, don't underestimate him. He still has real abilities."
"To be honest, the reason why my business is so prosperous has something to do with his guidance."
"According to what he said, there is a big shot who owes him a huge favor. If he uses this favor and lets you and I go out, it will probably only be a matter of words."
Li Dajiang quickly explained. After saying this, he shrugged and added: "For me, being locked up for two or three days is actually not a big deal."
"Inside the factory, even if the managers are there and I'm not there, the factory will still be running."
"The one who is really anxious is Lao Zhang yourself!"
"If you don't want to miss the contract signing in three days, it might be a good idea to ask Chen Hai for help."
At this point, Li Dajiang stopped talking, waiting for Zhang Zhongxiao to reply to him.
"If there is really no other way to think of, then I can only follow your suggestion and find that Chen Hai and give it a try!"
When talking about the contract three days later, Zhang Zhongxiao looked helpless and let out a long sigh.
Of course, his move was just to treat a dead horse as a living horse, and he did not really believe Li Dajiang's words.
Seeing Zhang Zhongxiao nodding and agreeing to his suggestion, Li Dajiang approached him and continued: "Ask Chen Hai for help. He has to use the favor that the big shot owes him."
"We can't just say a word and let people help us in vain!"
"Last time, he gave me some advice, and I even gave him 10% of the shares of Huangxin Shoes!"
"As far as I know, your Zhang family owns many companies. Although the shares you hold, Lao Zhang, are not large, the annual dividends are quite large!"
"You can't be stingy when it comes to remuneration. Otherwise, if I ask for help, I won't be able to ask for help!"
As a good friend, he gave some shares to Chen Hai for free, and asked Zhang Zhongxiao to also give Chen Hai some shares. Li Dajiang might be more balanced in his heart.
Although he did not explain what he said, this is roughly what he meant.
"Old Zhang, if you and I hadn't known each other for more than thirty years, I would know what your character is like!"
"I'm afraid I really wonder if you are trying to trick me into partnering with that boy named Chen to take advantage of my shares!"
He gave Li Dajiang an angry look, and Zhang Zhongxiao let out a long sigh.
If the signing of the contract three days later was not too important, he would really want to give this guy Li Dajiang a few kicks now.
"Okay, just do as you say, as long as that Chen Hai can really find connections to let me out!"
"With the shares I hold in my hands, I can just pick a company with poor efficiency and give it a little bit!"
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Zhongxiao finally gave in.
Frowning and thinking for a while, he continued: "Five or six years ago, my eldest brother Zhang Zhongmo left the good family business alone and went to start his own business."
"No one was optimistic about the company he founded at the time, so I invested some money in him because of my good relationship with it."
"In the past few years, his company has been losing money. Even if I haven't seen a penny of dividends, it still has to put a lot of money into it every year."
"Don't you just want me to be like you and give some shares to that Chen Hai?"
"Okay, I'll give him the 5% shares of my eldest brother's company that I hold in my hands!"
"Anyway, he is a mainlander with little knowledge and doesn't know what my eldest brother's company is like. When the time comes, let him fill in the holes!"
Having said this, Zhang Zhongxiao laughed a few times.
At this moment, he seemed to have succeeded in his evil plot, and he even gave Li Dajiang a provocative look.
"You guys are still so smart!"
Angrily, he rolled his eyes at Zhang Zhongxiao, and Li Dajiang added: "It's still midnight. Early tomorrow morning, I will give the police officer who is looking for me a good talk and ask for permission to make a phone call and go out. 1"
