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

Page 264

The meaning was certainly more than that, so Xu Lei had no choice but to nod before the other party could express their opinion.

"It's normal, I understand what you mean."

Grandpa Wang shook his head slightly.

"You don't understand, you don't know why I kept you here."

Grandpa Wang started coughing violently again, perhaps because he had just calmed himself down.

At this moment, however, he was suddenly stimulated again, and he continued to cough incessantly. Wang Xuhui, who was outside, felt wronged as he listened.

I just felt that my grandfather had really suffered a lot for me, and I thought about all the stupid things I had done before.

He bowed deeply to Gao Xiaochen, but felt that the bow was of no use at all.

But it also eased my guilt a little. "Don't do that, I'm just working for our boss."

He felt that if he could save you, he would go with you; otherwise, we wouldn't be meant to be.

The other party spoke very decisively and never took full responsibility for anything!

Hearing this, Wang Xuhui felt even more heartbroken, knowing how foolish he had been.

But there was nothing that could be done to stop it from happening, since all the stupid things he had done had already occurred.

No matter how hard he tried to salvage the situation, he was afraid he would get nowhere and shook his head helplessly.

“I know I caused trouble before, and I did so many things I shouldn’t have done in your Thai restaurant.”

Don't worry, I will definitely make it up to you in the future.

Juanxin found it particularly funny; this guy actually knew how to make amends and wasn't actually that ruthless.

"Since you knew this was wrong, you shouldn't have made things so difficult for me in the first place."

Chapter 316 Follow Me

"My temper has only improved in the last few years. If it were before, you wouldn't have needed to..."

Gao Xiaochen hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back, even though Wang Xuhui was only a few years younger than her.

But he's an adult now, and he still wants to mess around with himself here.

It's really quite speechless. Xu Lei originally wanted to take this opportunity to ease the tension between the two.

Gao Qilan looked at Gao Xiaochen and Wang Xuhui and saw that the atmosphere between them had suddenly turned cold. She quickly dragged them to sit down on the sofa and suggested they have a cup of tea to calm down.

"We don't know how long the two of them will chat inside. Let's have some tea first. You're both young and impetuous."

Some conflicts and frictions were even discussed openly, so they're still good brothers.

Wang Xuhui looked at the other person with an embarrassed expression, hoping that he would understand that he sincerely wanted to apologize.

It's not that I want to put on airs, nor do I want to act like the boss in this matter.

"I am serious."

The other person's statement was truly laughable, and it's hard to know how much sincerity was behind it.

"You don't need to cause trouble in my shop anymore. You've already smashed two tables in our shop."

I haven't received these compensations yet, and I don't care about the money at all.

But if you really change your temper, 243, then I can tolerate it. But for the sake of Grandpa Wang, no one is willing to make a move.

Have you ever thought about whether you'll even be alive after Old Master Wang passes away? He'll probably beat you up every few steps.

Although this may sound exaggerated, it is not without some truth; these are all people with extremely bad tempers.

If these people really start to take things seriously, things might become more anxious and unsettling than expected.

They wanted to control everything about him, no matter what, and didn't want things to get any more anxious or worse.

"Even now, you still want to play these roundabout games with me. You can do whatever you want."

It has nothing to do with me, and besides, we don't have much of a relationship to begin with.

After saying that, he could only shake his head helplessly and wait for the boss to come out.

That's considered the matter resolved, and I don't want to have any more contact with him.

Xu Lei and Old Master Wang remained silent for a long time after they met, until Old Master Wang finally managed to calm down.

She then quietly shared her thoughts with Xu Lei.

"I know this idea might seem a bit abrupt right now, but after much consideration, I believe it's the best way, and the fastest way to help that brat grow up!"

Xu Lei had already guessed what he meant, and silently lowered his head.

I hope the old man knows that Xu Lei is a sincere person and understands the intricacies of the situation, so that I don't need to get too entangled with him or suffer any grievances.

"You've probably already guessed it, although this is a bit sudden..."

Xu Leimei and Old Master Wang simply nodded slightly when they spoke.

"I know what you're going to say, I helped."

Hearing Xu Lei say this, the other party was still somewhat moved, feeling that this kindness was even greater than saving his life.

"That brat, despite his many faults, is actually my only reason for living in this world."

Although his uncles and aunts are all useless, I hope you can take care of him more.

It won't take too long, just six months or three months, enough time for him to get some experience and stay by my side.

Firstly, no one is genuinely willing to mentor him, and secondly, I'm too old to manage on my own and don't have the energy to deal with all this mess for him.

When Old Master Wang said this, his eyes were filled with helplessness and his tone was filled with despair.

He knew all too well how much trouble his grandson would cause him in the future.

That's why he repeatedly begged Xu Lei for help in this matter. Xu Lei simply held onto Old Master Wang's hand tightly!

"I'm just an old man, I'm no use anymore. My only concern is that kid, so if possible..."

Xu Lei nodded silently before Old Master Wang could finish speaking. Old Master Wang was somewhat puzzled.

Why would Xu Lei trust me so much, when that kid (bhbj) is clearly not up to par himself?

But when they asked him together, he agreed, which surprised the old man a little.

“I don’t care about anything else, I only care about you. I know you must have been a very capable person when you were young, which is why you trust me so much.”

And since he's so righteous, I'll keep Wang Xuhui by my side, but I have to say I can't let him get involved in the core business.

Let him fall down there for two years. Don't worry, I'll handle things with him.

As for you, you'll need to focus on recovering for the next six months. You'll have to wait and see the results of my work, otherwise how will I verify it?

Xu Lei smiled slightly, and the old man nodded silently; his health was deteriorating year by year.

This is also what he worries about for his grandson, even though he is personally protecting him.

But it can't be protected for many more years, and that's what makes people worry. So I'm really anxious.

"Don't worry about things now. With me there, this matter is absolutely guaranteed to be right."

After saying that, he smiled and told the other party that he would definitely take full responsibility for this matter.

"Let's go."

After Xu Lei came out, Gao Xiaochen was very curious and ran after him.

I wanted to see what they were talking about, so I looked at them with surprise.

"Look what I'm doing."

Seeing that Xu Lei didn't seem to have any intention of saying anything, he simply went straight to the point.

"I just want to ask you guys what you've been talking about for so long."

Gao Xiaochen smiled and wanted to find out more.

"What's it to you?"

Although Xu Lei was somewhat worried, he still brought Wang Xuhui with him and watched Wang Xuhui standing by the car.

She didn't seem to want to get in the car, so she just pulled him aside.

“You know Xiao Gao’s temper. If he knew you still didn’t want him, he would have a short temper and get angry at the slightest thing.”

For some reason, Wang Xuhui was not afraid of Xu Lei, but he was particularly afraid of Gao Xiaochen, who was the same age as him.

Xu Lei brought him to his side out of respect for Master Wang.

Just then, a project was about to start, and Wang Xuhui was eager to get started and turn over a new leaf.

This was a great opportunity, so I thought I should be at the forefront and at least get everything done.

"What kind of work can I be assigned if I go back with you this time?"

Gao Qilan was also curious. When Wang Xuhui asked this question, everyone stared at Xu Lei, but he pretended to be reserved and kept everyone in suspense.

"Just do what I tell you to do, why are you asking so many questions?"

Xu Lei was annoyed and kept his head down, dealing with the things at hand. He had been running around outside these past few days.

Many things at work have been delayed, and so has the land I negotiated back then.

Construction has already begun, which Xu Lei did not expect.

The entire approval process was so fast; I thought it would take another six months.

Chapter 317 The Shopkeeper

Now that the entire shopping mall has officially started construction, Xu Lei is extremely happy, after all, this is a new project that he and Jianguo are truly working on.

"I just heard Gao Xiaochen tell me that there is a big shopping mall that is different from all our department stores."

"You say it's a completely new type, which makes me quite curious. I've eaten at your Thai restaurant a few times, and the food is actually quite good."

Gao Xiaochen rolled her eyes so hard they almost flew to the sky. What good was Wang Xuhui's flattery now?

They still wrecked their restaurant back then, and now they're praising themselves. It's like giving someone a slap and then a sweet treat.

"You don't need to flatter me. Anyway, I'm not going back with Xu Lei. You should have a good talk with Xu Lei."

What specific responsibilities do you need to take? Besides, even if my restaurant is delicious, it's not in the same area.

You smashed it twice. Do you know how much impact each time you did that had on my side?

You mean, what did they do to you by coming here to have a meal?

You came up here and started flipping the table and throwing things, even though you later compensated for it.

But do you even realize how much this affects my shop? You have no idea.

You live a life of luxury, never having eaten braised pork belly since childhood. Are you one of those staff members?

Do you know how much money I lost this time? That's because we have a conscience. If it were anyone else, they would have already started layoffs.

Have you ever thought about how those who were laid off will support their families?

Seeing that Xu Lei was ill and didn't intend to be the bad guy, he simply blurted everything out.

After hearing this, Wang Xuhui was stunned for a long time; he hadn't thought that far ahead at all.

He just felt that he wanted to make himself look exceptionally good in front of his brothers.

But no one expected that this series of reactions would trigger so many butterfly effects.

He looked at Xu Lei with a somewhat sad and unfocused gaze, seemingly very insecure about everything he did.

They also didn't know what they would face next.

The anxiety in his heart grew even stronger, adding to Xu Lei's already awkward cough as the doctor told him that he must make sure to arrange his affairs properly.

Don't worry, I'll be here to support you. You don't need to overthink it.

Another thing is to recognize your place, since you're following me now.

You can rest assured and look back at your past mistakes. If you made mistakes, you have to admit them. You're a grown man.

Everyone makes mistakes, but when you make a mistake, don't try to shirk responsibility.

Even if your brothers pressure you, they can't force you to beat up someone or overturn their table.

Xu Lei's words left Wang Xuhui speechless; he knew it.
