That night, the mayor's office held a press conference, and Ayton Wilson bowed and apologized to all citizens in front of the camera.
"Good evening, dear citizens, I am the mayor of this city, Alton Wilson. I am very sorry to announce to you some unfortunate news, and this matter is closely related to my own failure to take responsibility. Here,
, I only sincerely apologize on behalf of myself for the negative impact this matter has caused."
Although the news that the mayor's son instigated others to kidnap Chen Xiaonian was blocked by the police, some rumors were still caught by reporters, and Ayton Wilson's opponents seized this opportunity to attack him in news headlines and on TV.
Massive criticism. After only one afternoon of fermentation, relevant information appeared in entertainment headlines. It was even arranged to show that the mayor's son failed to woo him, and he became so angry that he ordered his men to kill and silence him.
Lin Qi was furious when he saw such a report, and immediately ordered his subordinates to shut down this entertainment newspaper and its related industries as soon as possible. Chen Xiaonian woke up and went downstairs to see his man's face full of anger, and he walked away
Go behind and hug his neck to calm down the anger.
"Honey, are you awake?"
The voice that was so angry just now became extremely gentle, and the anger on his face disappeared in an instant.
"What's wrong? Who made my young master Lin angry?"
Chen Xiaonian fell onto Lin Qi's lap, and the warm sun-like tenderness made Lin Qi calmer.
"It's nothing, it's just cats and dogs barking."
With his eyes turning, Chen Xiaonian leaned on his man's shoulder and didn't ask any more questions. In fact, he didn't need to think too deeply to know that it had something to do with him, otherwise this man, who always remained calm even when the mountain was falling, wouldn't have had such a big emotional ups and downs.
of.
"Okay, okay, no matter what people say or gossip, it's not worth your anger. The ancients said that anger hurts the liver. What if your liver fails at such a young age?"
Lin Qi lowered his eyes and smiled: "If that day comes, will Nian Nian be willing to donate your liver to me?"
Not wanting to hear words that would make him unhappy, Lin Qi pressed Chen Xiaonian's pink lips before she spoke and added: "If the two of us match."
Chen Xiaonian opened her lips slightly, bit her man's fingertips with her teeth and shook them back and forth. After rolling her eyes a few times, she said: "I heard that the human liver has regenerative function. If your liver does."
Lin Qi took over the conversation calmly: "It's all broken."
After not hearing an answer from the person in his arms for a long time, Lin Qi lowered his head and saw Chen Xiaonian biting his fingertips with a tangled expression. He only felt that his internal organs were aching.
"Then can you take good care of it?"
The tearful look was endearing, and Lin Qi softened his tone: "Of course, I will cherish it as my own life."
Surrounded by love, the spacious and quiet living room is infinitely warm.
Chen Xiaonian wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes and struggled to get out of Lin Qi's arms.
"Oh, if that's the case, then I don't have to worry about whether to donate your liver to you."
Although she didn't say it clearly, Lin Qi could tell what she meant. The two people just said different things. He was talking about whether he would take good care of his original liver, but his answer was that he would take good care of her to donate it.
liver. The dumbfounded man got up and pulled her back, holding her chin and gritting his teeth.
"You little girl are obviously sent by God to torture me!"
Chen Xiaonian, who was pinched into a goldfish mouth, could not speak and could only express her innocence and confusion by blinking.
"You misunderstood. What I meant was that you must love the liver I donated to you."
It took a long time before he was let go. Chen Xiaonian rubbed his cheeks and defended himself. Lin Qi silently covered his ears, saying that he didn't want to hear her belated explanation.
Audiences watching the news program at home and listening to the radio on the road were stunned after hearing the mayor's announcement. Some people even stood in the middle of the road and forgot to move forward. What's more, they were too focused on watching the big screen on the roadside. The news on the street went straight to installing street lights.
"As the saying goes in the post offices of ancient Eastern countries, it is the fault of a son who fails to teach his father. Regarding Karls' behavior, as a father, I am extremely sad. As the mayor, I will never take the lead in making mistakes and covering up his behavior. Therefore, I will take responsibility for the investigation of this case. The police station issued an order, ordering them to investigate strictly in accordance with the regulations. Crimes should be punished, and there will be no tolerance because of the criminal's identity."
What followed was a long impassioned speech and a statement of shame that he had failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father. This behavior aroused heated discussions among the general public, with mixed praise and criticism. Some said that he was an upright and conscientious man. Mayor. Some people say that he is an unqualified father who only cares about his own future and ignores the importance of spending time with his family.
Ayton Wilson, who was physically and mentally exhausted, returned home. The dark room did not have the joy of the past when his family was around. In the corner not far from his home, someone was squatting with a long gun and a short cannon. As for him, he was following him. It's unclear whether the person who came was sent by his opponent to capture him.
Karls, who was still suffering in the police station, felt what it means to be cold-hearted not long after reading his father's speech. After receiving clear instructions from his superiors, the police officers immediately came to the door where Karls was being held in solitary confinement and took him away. Police officers took turns to conduct a surprise interrogation of him.
"Mr. Carls, the three criminals have truthfully confessed that you ordered them to kidnap Ms. Chen. They also confessed that they did not know you before, which contradicts your statement that they were your subordinates. May I ask Carls Mr. Si, how do you want to explain this?"
Seeing that he didn't speak, another police officer said: "According to our investigation, some time ago you illegally broke into Ms. Chen's manor and showed your love to her. After she sternly refused, you still persisted. Therefore, Ms. Chen sent you to Sent to the local police station. And you held a grudge for this, and used your father, Mr. Ayton Wilson, as the mayor, to secretly order two police officers from the local police station to secretly find the company where Ms. Chen worked and attempt to take her away. Are these situations true?"
After thirty-six hours of sleepless interrogation, Karls finally couldn't hold back and spoke.
"That was half a month ago. I saw her when I passed by the door of Cairns. At that time, I made up my mind that no matter who she was, I would capture her as quickly as possible. To this end, I spent money I bribed a supervisor in the Human Resources Department of Cairns to get relevant information about her. Later, in order to get to her home, I took advantage of the fact that her husband was not at home to follow her at a distance where her bodyguards could not find her."
After the interrogation, the police officers who knew the cause and effect gathered together to discuss.
"Do all these rich and powerful young masters and young ladies have the same disease? They want to get everyone and things they like, and destroy what they can't get?"
Another person answered: "Maybe this is a family tradition."
After Karls truthfully confessed, the progress of the case moved forward at an alarming speed. In just one week, people from the police station specially sent people to visit Lin Qi and Chen Xiaonian. During this period, Lin Qi also followed the mayor.
Together we went to inspect the land he mentioned before and found that a wealthy area is being constructed there. It has good development prospects both from the geographical location and the surrounding environment. As for the construction of better modern electronic equipment, it is only a matter of time.
.
"If Mr. Lin builds a fully functional business circle there, I believe he will be able to get a greater return than his investment in the near future."
A group of people stood on a high ground and looked down. The mayor excitedly waved his arms and pointed to the right. It was as if the new city center that would be fashionable, advanced, and prosperous in the future was already in front of them. But at this time, it was just an area.
The vast plains are lined with green grass and can be seen as far as the eye can see.
Faced with the mayor's long speech and persuasive words, Lin Qi was unmoved. According to his observations on the way here, the development here is correct, but it is not as rapid as the mayor said. If Lin wants to invest here
, I’m afraid I’ll have to wait until I get my money back.
In his seventies and eighties, if he wants to build such a large area, the best way is to jointly develop it with several or even dozens of very powerful companies. If only one company is invited to invest, no one will choose such a place that cannot be used for a long time.
The place where funds are withdrawn.
"Mr. Mayor is really a practical official who works for the welfare of the people and development of society. However, the investment in this project is too huge. I wonder if Mr. Mayor has invited other companies to participate in the development and construction here?"
Ayton Wilson's eyes paused for a moment, and then he said with a smile: "We have just decided to develop this place, and we are still in the process of attracting investment. I heard that the team of Lin's enterprise under Mr. Lin's jurisdiction has grown, and it has made great achievements in various industries involved.
He is a leader, so I want to ask Mr. Lin to be the first to eat the cake. In this way, other resources will follow after a good start."
What you said is very good. It does not let you fight alone but also inspires your determination to develop well. After all, everyone knows that this place will become a new urban center in the future, and people with investment vision will definitely not miss it. However, the reality
However, according to the current development situation, once the third
A person who tries will definitely be unable to get out of this quagmire. Especially if he encounters a paranoid person who cannot repay his initial investment, then he will continuously inject funds into it in an attempt to develop faster.
And he will become the target of many onlookers.
“So how much is the city government prepared to invest here?”
In an investment project with a foundation of tens of billions, the government is the reassurance among many investors. If it cannot set an example to stabilize the morale of the military, naturally no one will take risks.
Ayton Wilson looked into the distance, and the temperament of concern for the country and the people immediately emerged from his body.
"Mr. Lin, you know that this city belongs to the past tense in China, and its former glory has long been replaced by new urban agglomerations. In order to improve the happiness index of urban residents, the government has spent every year in the past one or two decades.
We have increased investment in projects including infrastructure construction every year. The city’s finances have already reached a point where it is struggling, otherwise it would not abandon the original city center and look for another place, but just want to restore the city’s former glory.”
In the next second, the camera showed the tearful face of the mayor. Coupled with his words just now, the image of an outstanding mayor serving the people was vividly displayed on the page. Soon, the camera turned to the front of Lin Qi. The meaning was obvious.
, I hope you can establish an image of an outstanding entrepreneur who contributes to society in front of the camera.
"The mayor has worked hard for social development. Many responsible entrepreneurs in the society see your hard work. I believe they will actively participate in the construction of their hometown. After all, this is the cradle that gave birth to them.
The lamb kneeling down to breastfeed and the crow feeding back to you are the good qualities that everyone should have.”
The corners of the mayor's mouth twitched. What this man said couldn't be more clear. Entrepreneurs from this city don't come back to build their hometowns. Naturally, a person from a foreign country like him will not get involved in this muddy water.
Seeing that it was already noon, Ayton Wilson wanted to invite Lin to have lunch, but he refused because of his wife's physical and mental health. This reason was so good that it was impossible to refute.
"So you didn't agree?"
Chen Xiaonian was lying on Lin Qi's lap, waiting for him to feed her fruit, her dishonest head kept moving around.
"As long as he is not a fool, he will not agree to it. If he really wants to attract investment, he should do it fairly and fairly through the channels of normal investment meetings, instead of going to other people's homes to 'discuss'."
Lin Qi moved back. This girl made him feel uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, when he moved, Chen Xiaonian immediately frowned her delicate eyebrows.
"Don't move. It's more comfortable if you have more flesh on your thighs. Why don't you move?"
After returning home, Ayton Wilson immediately summoned his assistant, "The matter was not leaked, was it?"
Assistant: "No."
Ayton Wilson: "Where's the woman?"
Assistant: "My subordinates arranged for personnel to keep her under close guard."
Suddenly thinking of something, the assistant raised his eyes to observe the mayor's face and said cautiously: "Mayor, when will the plan be launched?"
Ayton Wilson stroked his beard and said: "There is no rush, let's keep brewing, we have to wait for the best time."
Chen Xiaonian ran upstairs and buried herself in the quilt. Her hot cheeks made her feel very embarrassed. Fortunately, the servants usually did not stay in the living room, otherwise, in the situation just now, she would have been splashed with blood.
The doorknob turned, and Lin Qi tried not to make a sound. He tiptoed to the bed, looked at the bulging spot on the bed, and pounced on it.
"Honey, are you waiting for me?"
But the softness under his body made him realize something was wrong. When he turned over, he saw a figure flashing past the door. He lay back on the bed helplessly and felt the restlessness in his body. This little girl really had a black gut, black lungs, and a black heart!
