Be reborn and be happy to the fullest
Chapter 498 Questioning the Invitation to Appear
Si Jiawen wanted to follow Li Shuo to participate in the "SC Club Share Signing Ceremony", but was eventually forced to sleep with Li Shuo and forced to stay at home.
Li Shuo is no longer the same person he used to be. He created the Shuoguo system so that women could hide behind him for shelter. With the death of Chen Qingyuan, Si Jiawen would inevitably be subject to gossip. At this time, the best choice is to stay indoors.
But the more Li Shuo refused, the more Si Jiawen wanted to help him. In the end, Li Shuo agreed to Si Jiawen's request and brought Si Chengwu to meet Qi Tianlin.
……
In the VIP room of the SV Club, Si Chengwu, Qin Fen, and Lin Dashao gathered together. In addition to the three of them, there was also the club's founder Yu Chengcheng, who was surrounded by even more people.
"Why are you all here today?"
"It's because of something..."
"Tsk tsk, who would have thought that Chen Qingyuan would be like this..."
"Shh, be quiet, don't you see Si Chengwu is here too?"
The VIP lounge is designed as a revolving bar with an oval bar in the middle. It is a gathering place for senior members of the club. Of course, usually only close friends gather here to chat. Unlike today, many prominent young men and women of the SV club were present.
At this time, Yu Chengcheng came to sit in front of Si Chengwu and said casually, "Young Master Si, this matter will have a great impact. You must be mentally prepared."
Si Chengwu raised his eyebrows fiercely but said nothing. He knew what Yu Chengcheng meant. The young masters present were actually all similar to Chen Qingyuan. They gathered together to eat and have fun and enjoy a good time. No one expected that suddenly one day a guy similar to themselves would be gone!
The shock this brought to everyone can be imagined, and the original main reason why Chen Qingyuan was "gone" was because Si Jiawen "cheated on Li Shuo" - at least that's what most people at the scene thought, and some even...
"If you ask me, Mr. Yu, can you please call Li Shuo over on our behalf?" someone suddenly raised his voice.
As soon as this statement was made, it was immediately echoed by many people.
"Yes, Li Shuo should be the person involved. Call him over to ask him about it."
"We don't care about what happened between him and Si Jiawen, but why did Chen Qingyuan disappear so inexplicably?"
"The Chen family has already taken action. The head of the family said that they must find out the cause of death. My uncle even called me today to ask about this..."
They are all young masters of Lenghai. Many of them are even related to Chen Qingyuan by marriage. They would gloat over Chen Qingyuan's divorce from Si Jiawen, but when someone died, everyone immediately felt grief!
Faced with so many voices, even Yu Chengcheng looked embarrassed, let alone Si Chengwu. As a young master who ranked among the top few in SV, he even felt a little uneasy at this moment.
Wei Hailing, who was accompanying him, didn't understand any of this. She only knew that Li Shuo had brought her to sign a contract with Leng Yi. She anxiously urged her boyfriend, "Master Si, why are these people targeting Master Li? Aren't you going to stand up and say something?"
Si Chengwu glared at his girlfriend fiercely, but for the sake of face, he had to bite the bullet and stand up. To show his strength, he slammed the table and shouted:
"What are you all yelling about! Chen Qingyuan was killed by a beggar, what does it have to do with my brother-in-law? I don't care what relationship any of you have with the Chen family. Today, I, Si Chengwu, am making this clear: The Chen family can investigate Chen Qingyuan's case, but if they want to take advantage of the opportunity to stir up trouble and slander my brother-in-law, then our Si family will not tolerate it!"
The room was silent for two seconds, but Young Master Si was not Yu Chengcheng after all, so someone soon asked, "Young Master Si, as far as I know, your brother-in-law is Chen Qingyuan, right? Who is the brother-in-law you are talking about?"
This person asked a question even though he knew the answer, and he hit the nail on the head: the brother-in-law that Si Chengwu was talking about is Li Shuo, and now that "the nominal brother-in-law Chen Qingyuan is dead", you still want us not to "slander the actual brother-in-law"?
Si Chengwu glared at the man fiercely and sneered, "Chen Kang, how can a small branch of the Chen family like you have the right to speak here?!"
Chen Kang was not frightened, but stubbornly said, "My cousin is dead, why can't I speak? Are you guilty of covering for Li Shuo?"
"You..."
Si Chengwu's hot temper finally got the better of him.
But before he could do anything, he was immediately stopped by the people around him: Everyone here wanted to find out the cause of "Chen Qingyuan's death", but did not want to cause any more trouble.
Just when the scene was in chaos and Yu Chengcheng was thinking about how to step out to maintain the situation, the door was opened with a "click", and then Li Shuo, one of the "parties involved", strode in!
For a moment, the room was silent, and everyone looked at Li Shuo with wide eyes!
"Hmm? The club is quite full today!"
Li Shuo naturally didn't know what was going on here. Seeing that there were many people in the VIP room, he smiled and greeted everyone. As a result, everyone he saw turned their eyes away unconsciously and didn't look at him. Finally, Yu Chengcheng stood up and walked quickly to him: "Mr. Li, why are you here today?"
"What? Can't I come?"
"Well, not really, it's just that thing about Chen Qingyuan... everyone thinks you won't come out in the near future..." Yu Chengcheng said vaguely.
"Chen Qingyuan's death, does it have anything to do with the fact that I won't be coming out in the near future?"
Li Shuo asked calmly, then waved to Si Chengwu: "Chengwu, tell me, what's going on?"
When Si Chengwu saw him, he ran to him as if he had seen a savior and told him what had just happened in the club. Of course, it was an exaggerated version. According to him, this group of people close to the Chen family wanted to "force the palace" and "frame" his Chen family.
Li Shuo immediately grasped the point and turned to look at Chen Kang: "Chen family? Why are you here if you don't want to investigate the cause of Chen Qingyuan's death?"
The corners of Chen Kang's mouth twitched, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment. Although he was a member of the Chen family, he was a side branch and naturally not that close to Chen Qingyuan.
The reason why most of the people present were so concerned about this matter was not because they wanted to find out whether Li Shuo killed Chen Qingyuan, but because Chen Qingyuan's sudden death brought them great insecurity.
"For the sake of the dead, let me say this: If Chen Qingyuan died because of me, how do you think you are better than Chen Qingyuan? If Chen Qingyuan's death has nothing to do with me, then what are you doing here to doubt the Si family?"
Li Shuo's voice was still not loud, but when it fell into everyone's ears, many people were startled: Yes, if it was really Li Shuo who killed someone, wouldn't it be troublesome for themselves to investigate the matter themselves?
At this time, Li Shuo bowed to the people around him and said:
"I came here today because I have something important to do. You guys should do what you need to do..."
This gave everyone a way out, and then everyone became more curious: What was Li Shuo doing here?
Si Chengwu was also very curious, and he quickly became the mouthpiece for everyone. Li Shuo smiled calmly and said, "It's not a big deal, I just have a business deal to discuss with the SC Club."
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked:
"SC Club? Is it the supercar club from Beijing?"
"The rich young men in Beijing? When did Li Shuo get in touch with that group of people?"
Si Chengwu was also surprised. He now admired Li Shuoting and thought he was very capable, but not so capable as to "cross circles", right?
"What's wrong?" Li Shuo didn't quite understand everyone's surprise and turned to look at Yu Chengcheng.
Yu Chengcheng looked at him with a hint of shock, and replied, "Our SV club has a similar name to SC, but the atmosphere and format of the club are actually different... Well, it's a bit complicated to explain, so I'll just tell you the difference between the group of people in Beijing and us..."
"Everyone here is from a business family. Although there are frictions on a daily basis, in their hearts, they still use money to measure things..."
Li Shuo looked thoughtful, and now he had some understanding: take the conflict between him and Chen Qingyuan as an example, the two of them only ended up having the authorities investigate their store, but there was not much threat to each other's life, and everything was still after money.
"The death of Chen Qingyuan" is a typical "departure from the cold sea circle style" incident. Therefore, the people in the SV club had such a big reaction!
"Those from Beijing, although their goal is to make more money, are very stubborn and never say that they want to make money. They only look at who your father or grandfather is... And then, they usually don't care about the lower class. Well, they treat them like ants and don't care. But if they meet them, they will just step on them to death... This, Brother Shuo, do you understand?"
In front of so many people, Yu Chengcheng's words were very obscure, but Li Shuo understood his meaning: Isn't it just relying on "tremendous power" to do lawless things?
He nodded solemnly, and in his heart he attached three points more importance to the cooperation with Qi Tianlin: If he avoided him just because the other party was lawless, he would sooner or later encounter the "Beijing circle", or in other words, he had already entered the Beijing circle and could not get rid of this thing.
Since it cannot be avoided, it is better to regard the "crisis that may cause conflict" as "an opportunity to solve future problems" and establish a good relationship with Qi Tianlin!
"What kind of business does Young Master Li want to discuss with the SC Club?"
"You're not going to buy shares, are you? Qi Tianlin is too stingy for only 1000% of the shares for 1 million!"
"If you ask me, Qi Tianlin is just collecting protection money. That guy thinks he has a strong background and came here to pretend to be a big shot..."
"Master Yu, I heard that our SV is still cooperating with him. In my opinion, we can't support our competitors!"
Li Shuo wanted to discuss business with the SC club, which instantly diverted everyone's attention. Through their chattering, Li Shuo also understood: it turned out that the current public opinion in the Lenghaikuoshao circle was very resistant to Qi Tianlin!
As Yu Chengcheng said, people in Leng Haikuoshao’s circle only care about money. They think that 1000 million is too expensive to buy 1% of SC club shares.
"Everyone, are you talking about me?"
Just as everyone was talking, the door was pushed open again, and Qi Tianlin strode in with four people.
"Lü Chengen, Chen Huating... Tsk tsk, everyone from the SC Club is here!"
"There are also Bai Xiaolong and Liu Lele from the capital. These two are lawless guys..."
"What kind of business is this? How come four shareholders of the Beijing SC Club came at once?"
While everyone was talking, Qi Tianlin had already come to Li Shuo and introduced the people behind him.
To Li Shuo's surprise, the first person Qi Tianlin introduced was the "non-mainstream teenager" Chen Huating, who turned out to be a shareholder of the Beijing SC Club and was from the Beijing Chen family!
According to Li Shuo's speculation, the "Chen" here is probably the "Chen" in Chen Guanwei and Chen Zhijun.
Bai Xiaolong is a middle-aged man over 35 years old. His temperament is exactly the opposite of his name, and he seems very steady. Liu Lele is similar, looking relatively young, but he already has crow's feet at the corners of his eyes.
Li Shuo had heard in his previous life that the older generation of XX class XX families in Beijing liked to give their descendants simple names, with the middle character "小" (small) in the middle, or simply repeated names. Now that he saw these two, Li Shuo finally understood.
"I heard before that a fierce man appeared in Lenghai. I saw him today and didn't expect him to be so young. We should get closer to him in the future..."
The person who said this was Bai Xiaolong, and he seemed very friendly.
Liu Lele seemed carefree. She stared at Li Shuo with wide eyes and said in surprise: "Oh my god, how can a girl who can kill Chen Qingyuan be so pretty and delicate? Li Shuo, your appearance is too deceptive!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was silent.
Qi Tianlin glared at her fiercely and scolded her: "Le Le, can you please speak properly? I have already told you before coming here, don't take your guesses as facts!"
Then he looked at Li Shuo and said apologetically: "Brother Shuo, I apologize to you on behalf of Lele. Don't look at this guy's age. In fact, he is used to being unscrupulous and has no understanding of the ways of the world! I absolutely believe that Chen Qingyuan's matter has nothing to do with you..."
The conversation between Bai Xiaolong, Liu Lele and Li Shuo was nothing special, at most it just surprised everyone in the SV club.
But it is really shocking that Qi Tianlin actually took the initiative to apologize and was so humble!
This guy is the eldest son of a real estate giant! Looking at the whole country, he can also be ranked among the "young masters"!
Compared with the abnormal attitudes of the three people, Li Shuo had already guessed in his mind: since the rich young men in Lenghai value money, and the rich young men in Beijing value "lawlessness", then the matter of Chen Qingyuan is unexpectedly beneficial to Li Shuo's reputation in the Beijing circle.
With all his thoughts in his mind, Li Shuo pretended to be very careful. On the one hand, he said, "I dare not, no need to apologize." On the other hand, he said as if complaining, "Brother Qi, can we not mention this matter of Chen Qingyuan? To be honest, it would be better if he didn't die. His death makes me the murderer recognized by the whole world..."
Qi Tianlin laughed loudly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's my fault. Let's not talk about it. We came here today to sign a contract!"
Yu Chengcheng, who was watching the show for a long time, finally found an opportunity to stand up and said, "Mr. Qi, what is the contract?"
Qi Tianlin glanced at the important people present and said slowly, "Mr. Li had previously verbally agreed with me that he would acquire 20% of the shares of the SC Club in exchange for building the Lenghai headquarters of the SC Club!"
