basketball behind the spotlight

Chapter 6 What is the Price?

After booking the air ticket and sending the message, Lu Ziqiu didn't know what to do, so he opened the webpage and browsed the news about himself when he was really bored. A variety of dazzling headlines came into view, and he couldn't help feeling ridiculous. Not even interested in clicking in.

"I am the envoy of justice and the nemesis of evil."

But when he saw this title, he couldn't help being a little surprised. There is such an article in the basketball section?The comments are still so high, there are more than 30, which is really scary!
He couldn't help but clicked in. After reading the whole article, his eyes became colder and colder.

The general idea of ​​the article is that the author recently reported the news about a certain important person. The important person hid under the office building in the middle of the night to block the way, threatening and intimidating her with almost every means.

Although no names were named, the comments were basically full of abuse, targeting Lu Ziqiu directly, saying that he was insane, that the laws of nature were unacceptable, that he was full of evil, that he would be struck by lightning, and so on.

"Okay, it seems that I won't give you any color, you really think that I, Lu Ziqiu, are a sick cat."

So he called Diana with a gloomy face and asked her if she knew where Lin Qian's home was.

"Wait, I'll call you later." Diana hurriedly replied and hung up the phone.

This waited until seven o'clock in the evening before Diana called him back, and said nervously as soon as he got through, "General Manager, don't act recklessly, the reason why she dared to do that must be well prepared. "

"Did you see that article too?"

"I've seen it. Basically everyone in the company has read it." She wanted to say that everyone was saying bad things about him behind his back, but she swallowed it back.

"Then do you think I should be angry?"

Diana said angrily: "That woman is so vicious, I wish I could tear her mouth apart."

Lu Ziqiu sighed, "This is none of your business, I will handle it myself."

"General manager, can you listen to my advice? If you go to her again, maybe she will write something."

"Don't worry, I have her recording in my hand, she dare not write any more."

"really?"

"I never lie."

Diana absolutely believed him, "But I don't know the address of her home, how about a phone call?"

"can."

"Then I'll send it to you right away."

Lin Qian returned home very early today. She was actually very afraid that Lu Ziqiu would use any means to deal with her, but she had to write that article again.

After sitting on the sofa for a while, she was about to take a shower to calm down, but the phone rang suddenly. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, she hung up directly, but it rang again after a while, and she was so angry that she cursed "crazy" "Hung up again.

This time the call didn't come back, but she received a multimedia message from that number. She opened it and saw that it was a recording. She suddenly trembled for no reason, "It couldn't be that Lu Ziqiu recorded the conversation between me and her. Tonight's conversation?"

Thinking of this, I suddenly threw my phone on the sofa in fright.

After a while, the phone rang again. Lin Qian was so frightened that she trembled all over, but she suddenly ran over to answer the phone with the courage she didn't know where, and shouted tremblingly, "What exactly do you want?"

Lu Ziqiu suppressed his anger and asked in a low voice: "Why do you want to ruin my reputation over and over again? Where did I offend you?"

Lin Qian shouted: "Others posted it too, why don't you go find someone else?"

"Because you are unlucky."

"You crazy, you crazy."

"Have you heard the recording? If you don't want to go to jail, you'd better write another article right away. As for how to write, I shouldn't need to teach you, right?"

"impossible."

Lu Ziqiu sighed, "Then wait for the police to find you, good luck for you."

"Hello, hello." But the phone has been hung up.

"Crazy, lunatic." Lin Qian suddenly burst into tears as she cursed, she opened the recording with trembling fingers, and cried while listening to it, the more she listened, the more frightened she became, and the more afraid she cried, the sadder she became.

After a long time, she tremblingly picked up the phone and dialed back the number.

"Have you figured it out?" came Lu Ziqiu's faint voice.

Lin Qian choked up and replied: "I can't write, otherwise I will die, please let me go?"

Lu Ziqiu snorted, "Do you think I will believe it?"

"Really, I didn't lie to you."

Lu Ziqiu hesitated for a while, then asked in a deep voice, "Did Gu Yuhang ask you to do this?"

"Don't ask, I can't tell, please let me go?"

"If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price."

"No, if you have something to talk about, please? I'll give you money, how much do you want, tell me, if it's not enough, I'll borrow it."

"Do you think I'll be short of money?"

"Then what do you think of me? Woohoo."

Lu Ziqiu was stunned for a while, why did he cry?How dare she be so timid?Not like it.

But hearing her crying so sadly, he suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, "Well, I'll give you three choices, one, tell who asked you to do it; two, write an article to clarify for me; three , come to me, let's talk face to face."

After talking, he hung up the phone directly. If he continued to listen, he doubted that he would even forgive her.

It took another long time before Lin Qian wiped away her tears and called Lu Ziqiu again, "Where are you?"

"Yaranger Hotel, Room 1808."

Lin Qian gritted her teeth, "Okay, I'll go find you."

In less than an hour, Lin Xi, who was wearing sportswear and a peaked cap, appeared outside the door of Room 1808. She bit her lip and hesitated for a long time before ringing the doorbell.

Lu Ziqiu opened the door expressionlessly, "Come in and sit down, and close the door by the way, I don't want to be on the headlines with you again."

Lin Qian's heart sank, she stepped in abruptly, and closed the door behind her.

Lu Ziqiu invited her to sit on the sofa, "Can you get used to tea?"

Lindsay nodded.

Lu Ziqiu poured her a cup of tea, "I'm not used to talking with one mouth."

Lin Qian took off her hat, revealing a haggard face.

Lu Ziqiu handed her the teacup, "You would rather come to me than make the first two choices. It seems that the person behind the scenes is much scarier than me, isn't it?"

Lin Qian's hands holding the teacup trembled slightly.

"That man took the initiative to find you, didn't he?"

Lindsay nodded.

"When did it happen? Before or after Diana?"

"after."

Lu Ziqiu frowned, "That person knew about my threats to you?"

"Well, you happened to be seen by him when you went to find me."

"That's why I threatened you?"

Lin Qian gritted her teeth and nodded.

Lu Ziqiu laughed at himself: "Then the two of us are really unlucky."

But this matter became a bit confusing again. That person appeared after Diana, and it was obviously not Gu Yuhang who made Lin Qian so afraid. Gu Yuhang was not that capable.

Lin Qian took a sip of tea and tried to calm herself down, "How can you let me go?"

Lu Ziqiu looked at her quietly, "Actually, from the moment you stepped here, I don't hate you anymore, do you believe it?"

Lin Qian looked at him in disbelief, her eyes met, his gaze was as deep as an abyss, and she subconsciously asked, "Why?"

"In the arena, results can cancel everything."

Lin Qian understood what he meant. Once he had achieved results, he would turn from full of criticism to full of praise.

"However, not hating you doesn't mean you don't have to pay the price." After the words fell, Lu Ziqiu suddenly got up and walked in front of her.

Lin Xi was so frightened that her whole body trembled, she tightly covered her chest with her hands, "You, don't act recklessly, as long as I yell, you can wait to go to jail."

Lu Ziqiu smiled faintly, "Am I an idiot?"

"Then what are you going to do?"

Lu Ziqiu suddenly took out his mobile phone and deleted the recording in front of her, "In the future, if someone forces you to write something, you can just write it down, but you must inform me in advance, you have seen my sincerity, as for your sincerity, that's up to you." It depends on your own performance, this is the price you need to pay, I hope you can take care of yourself and don't force me to do anything out of the ordinary."
