Chapter 128: You Deceive Me and I Cheat You

  Two beauties were whispering to each other, while Zhong Xiaofei and Li Sanshi were discussing the company's business. Although Zhong Xiaofei disliked Li Sanshi very much, he had to admit that Li Sanshi was indeed good at making money and had a lot of connections. Last time, Zhong Xiaofei made $400,000 in soybean futures trading in the US, but Li Sanshi made $4 million, ten times more than Zhong Xiaofei. Although Zhong Xiaofei was certain that there was something fishy about it, he didn't want to confront Li Sanshi yet.

  For every sentence Li Sanshi said, Zhong Xiaofei carefully replied.

  "Xiao Fei, has Yang Dong looked for you recently?" Li San Shi poured a glass of red wine for Zhong Xiao Fei with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.

  "He hasn't been around for two days. He came looking for me on Tuesday." Zhong Xiaofei replied honestly, knowing that these things couldn't be hidden forever.

  "Oh, why look for you?"

  "Soybean trading made some money, he encouraged me." Zhong Xiaofei smiled.

  "Is that so?" Li San Shi nodded, with a cunning glint in his eyes. After filling his own wine cup, he raised it.

  Zhong Xiaofei also quickly raised his hand.

  Two people drank half a cup.

  After putting down the wine glass, Li Sanshi said: "Xiaofei, you are the smartest and most capable person I have ever seen. As long as you follow me, I guarantee that you will make a lot of money! Chairman Yang is already old, and the directors have been impatient with him for a long time. This company will eventually belong to you and me..."

  Zhong Xiaofei was flattered, and Li San Shi surprisingly mentioned the two of them in the same breath. This really has a bit of the meaning of Cao Cao and Liu Bei's "Heroes" discussion when drinking wine back then. Only Cao Cao's "The heroes of the world are only you and me" became "In the company, it's just you and me".

  Zhong Xiaofei is just a small white-collar worker, he doesn't have such ambition yet.

  "Thank you for your appreciation, Director Li. I will definitely follow you and work hard." Zhong Xiaofei nodded repeatedly.

  Li Sanshi's eyes were cunning, and it was clear that he didn't quite believe in Zhong Xiaofei's loyalty. The only thing he believed in was that as long as he gave Zhong Xiaofei enough benefits, he would definitely be able to win him over! As the saying goes, "people die for wealth, birds perish for food", in this world, no one can't be bought, the key is whether the price is right.

  "Your house situation, Hui Lin has already told me," Li San Shi took a small sip of red wine and said with a smile: "You and Xiao Wei living in that small house is really too cramped. How can someone like you rent a house? The company owes you an apology. That suite in the Huayuan community would be just right for the two of you to live in..." He took out a set of keys from his waist and pushed them over to Zhong Xiao Fei on the table: "Although it's a bit small, make do with it for a few days. After the company's board meeting is over, I'll exchange it for a bigger one for you. Also, about the 4% shares in the company, Hui Lin should have told you already? Hehe, after the board meeting is over, everything promised to you will be given..."

  Zhong Xiaofei's heart was increasingly shocked, Li Sanshi really was unscrupulous in pulling him. The more Li Sanshi pulled, the more Zhong Xiaofei felt the existence of danger.

  Because this shows Li Sanshi wants to reap more benefits from him!

  He was just a deputy manager of the investment department, subordinate to Li Sanshi, with no power or influence, and his only capital was his ability in futures analysis and trading. This was exactly what Li Sanshi and Yang Tianzeng valued about him. If he helped Li Sanshi make a big profit in the recent transaction, then Li Sanshi's path to becoming chairman of the board would be even smoother. On the other hand, if he didn't help Li Sanshi, or even sabotaged him, it would greatly benefit Yang Tianzeng.

  "Manager Li, I really appreciate your kindness, but the house..." Zhong Xiaofei shook his head sincerely: "I can't take it for now..."

  "The house is idle anyway, so don't be polite with me." Li San Shi smiled slyly.

  "No need, thank you, Manager Li. I'm not being polite, I haven't done anything yet, how can I have the face to accept such a big gift? Wait until I make some contributions, it's not too late for you to give me then. Since Manager Li asked me to come over for dinner today, there must be something to entrust me with, just say it, as long as I can do it, I will definitely go all out!"

  Zhong Xiaofei had an extremely devoted look on his face.

  Li San Shi smiled, still with that insincere and cunning smile.

  "Haha, Xiaofei, I knew I wasn't wrong about you. Alright, with this one sentence from you, I can rest assured. The house is reserved for you first, and the stocks are also prepared for you. As for what needs to be discussed..." Li San Shi glanced at the two beauties by the table, who were chatting in hushed tones, discussing makeup and skincare, seemingly uninterested in the conversation between the two men.

  "The 18th is the date of the shareholders' meeting, only half a month away from now. I hope that during this period, we can make another deal. Of course, if not, it doesn't matter, the shareholders' meeting has already been settled, Chairman Yang will definitely be retiring..." Li San Shi turned back his gaze and said lightly but firmly.

  "I'll do it, I heard Manager Li's." Zhong Xiaofei nodded without hesitation, but sneered in her heart. The more Li Sanshi said it was nothing, the more it seemed to be something, apparently, the power struggle between Li Sanshi and Yang Tianzeng was becoming increasingly fierce, with both sides evenly matched, so Li Sanshi hoped to come up with another impressive achievement in the near future.

  But Zhong Xiaofei would not be moved, because he absolutely would not forgive Li Sanshi for his blackmail and coveting of Wu Yujie!

  "Haha, come on, let's have a pleasant cooperation, let's drink to that." Li San Shi raised his wine glass.

  Zhong Xiaofei also raised his glass and they clinked glasses together.

  After putting down his wine glass, Li San Shi felt much more relaxed. He suddenly glanced at Xiao Wei and smiled slyly in a low voice: "Xiao Fei, is Xiao Wei really your little aunt?"

  "Really."

  Li San Shi's smile made Zhong Xiao Fei feel a wave of nausea, and he really wanted to punch him. From Li San Shi's lecherous gaze, Zhong Xiao Fei saw his ill intentions towards Xiao Wei.

  If Li Sanshi dares to do anything to Xiaowei, Zhong Xiaofei will definitely kill him!

  "Oh, she's so cute."

  Li Ssanshi praised.

  The two beauties on the other side also stopped their whispers, Xiong Huilin's beautiful eyes glanced at Zhong Xiaofei and smiled: "Xiao Wei, your brother-in-law is so handsome, does your sister feel at ease with him being alone outside?"

  "I'm not at ease, so my sister sent me to keep an eye on him!" Xiao Wei said with a straight face, as if it were true. Zhong Xiaofei really admired her ability to lie, not only did she not change color, but also sounded very realistic, this point was very similar to Zhong Xiaofei.

  Xiong Huilin's giggles: "Really? Then you've been monitoring him for so many days, have you gotten any results?"

  Her charming smile made Zhong Xiaofei's heart flutter, his eyes involuntarily swept across the snow-white front of her chest, then quickly shifted back his gaze, lowering his head to drink.

  Yes!

  Xiao Wei nodded firmly.

  Zhong Xiaofei became tense and secretly signaled to Xiao Wei with her eyes, meaning don't talk nonsense.

  Xiao Wei seemed to have not seen him at all, shaking her head and continuing to say: "I found that he is very dishonest, seeing a beauty will not walk. It's too lewd."

  "Of course, men are all lustful, and there are many beauties in the company. Little Wei, don't relax your guard."

  Xiong Huilin smiled and glanced at Zhong Xiaofei, her charming eyes making Zhong Xiaofei's heart skip a beat. Although in front of her husband, Xiong Huilin's eyes were always fiery.

  Li San Shi coughed rudely, furrowed his brow, and had a flame in his eyes, apparently dissatisfied with his wife's fiery gaze.

  Xiong Huilin didn't care at all and continued to do her own thing.

  "I certainly won't let up, I'll definitely keep an eye on him!" Little Wei said firmly.

  Her shaking head and lovely appearance made Li San Shi and Xiong Hui Lin laugh loudly.

  Zhong Xiaofei could only awkwardly smile back.

  "Brother-in-law Li, I've always been so envious of you!" Little Wei suddenly spoke up again, rolling her eyes.

  "What are you envying me for?" Li San Shi was very interested in Xiaowei's words, he narrowed his eyes and smiled at Xiaowei. His eyes were originally small, and when he narrowed them, they almost disappeared.

  Zhong Xiaofei felt a wave of disgust in her heart.

  "My brother-in-law said: Manager Li is so lucky, marrying a sister as beautiful as an angel."

  Xiao Wei's mouth is really good at coaxing people, and her appearance is also cute and lovely. Her words have a kind of power that makes people believe in her naturally.

  Li San Shi and Xiong Hui Lin listened, and burst out laughing again.

  Xiao Wei's flattery made them feel great.
