When Li Mei stepped into the big house left to her by her parents again.

The farewell scene before.

It's still replaying involuntarily in my mind.

It was as if he was mocking the ridiculousness of her previous farewell.

She put the luggage in the box back to its original place.

At this time, the landline phone at home rang.

Li Mei wanted to be quiet and didn't want to answer the call.

Unexpectedly, the caller was very persistent and annoying.

The phone rang once but was not answered.

The other party was tactless and kept hitting me over and over again.

Li Mei was completely annoyed by the annoying sound.

He angrily went forward and answered the phone.

Will you ever stop scolding the other person mercilessly?

But when she first heard the other party claiming to be the police officer investigating the accidental death of his parents.

Li Mei immediately forced herself to suppress all the anger in her heart.

After taking a long breath, he asked with a hint of smile:

"Police Officer X, why are you calling me at this hour? Is there any new progress in my parents' case?"

strange!

The other party couldn't see her expression.

Why did she smile when she called?

That's because there is a fundamental difference in the tone of voice when speaking with a smile and when speaking without a smile.

Li Mei didn't want the police officers in charge of the case to hear that she dared to have any opinions about the police.

The police officer in charge of the case immediately responded:

"Yes, Li Mei, you are right! There is indeed new progress."

Li Mei said excitedly:

"Quick, tell me what's going on?"

The police officer in charge of the case said in a calm tone:

"Here's what happened. After our investigation, we found that the executive who lent your parents the car actually had nothing to do with your parents' death. So the executive was released this afternoon."

Li Mei said, obviously unhappy:

"Just let him go. Why are you telling me all this? Do you want me to personally apologize to that supervisor tomorrow?"

The police officer in charge of the case laughed bitterly.

He did not respond to Li Mei's question.

Instead, he continued to express himself:

"The supervisor said that your parents drove his car to pieces. He was also wrongly imprisoned for a period of time."

Li Mei said in surprise:

"What! Did the supervisor understand? Arresting and releasing people are all your police duties. You're talking as if it was my instructions."

The police officer in charge of the case said:

"You're right. The supervisor also said that. He took into consideration that your parents had just passed away. He didn't want to care about being wrongly accused."

"If you don't care, then don't care. Don't expect me to thank him."

"No. What he meant was that the car was scrapped by your parents. You must make up for this loss."

"can!"

"Okay then! I'd like you to come over at ten o'clock tomorrow morning to discuss the specific compensation matters. What do you think..."

"Oh, I see. If you don't have anything else to say, I'll hang up."

The police officer in charge of the case just said, "It's gone."

Li Mei couldn't wait and hung up the phone.

The police officer in charge of the case heard the sound of the phone being hung up.

He just said "goodbye".

So he looked at the receiver awkwardly and grumbled:

"Hey, are all the rich people so busy nowadays? He hung up on me without even saying goodbye."

Another policeman heard this and said jokingly:

"Don't think so! You don't know that there are always such people in our country. They are very upright in their conduct. That's why they hung up the phone in a hurry. They don't want to take advantage of the country even a penny more."

The police officer thought for a moment and said:

"Okay! You want to get beaten, right? Don't think I can't hear you. According to you, my ideological awareness is not as high as that of a child who has just grown up?"

Another policeman laughed and fled quickly saying:

"Haha, that's what you said. I didn't say that."

……

Li Mei just hung up the phone.

I had just turned around and walked a few steps when I heard the phone ringing again.

She stamped her feet in annoyance and said:

"There have been quite a few phone calls tonight. Who is being so annoying this time?"

She came to the phone again angrily.

He grabbed the telephone wire with one hand and tried to pull it out.

But when she just pulled the telephone line straight.

It seemed that it would be able to be pulled out with just a little more force.

She gave up!

I wondered what if there was something particularly important?

You have to know that in this era, most people would send telegrams when they had urgent matters.

The cost of making a phone call is much higher than that of a telegram.

Even if Li Mei's house had a telephone installed.

In general, telegrams are still chosen for daily emergency communications.

This was mainly because telephones were not yet fully popular.

So you still have to answer this call.

Li Mei once again suppressed her overflowing anger.

He reached out and picked up the phone again.

This time the voice coming from the receiver was Benson.

He called her just like the first time he returned home.

Complained again and said something about how their company executives were all idiots.

Still full of his promise to Li Mei.

Just give him a few more days.

He will definitely convince the company's executives.

Restart cooperation with Li Mei Company.

Upon hearing this, Li Mei just smiled and said "OK".

She knew Benson was just acting.

As for the ultimate goal of acting, I'm afraid it's her.

Trying to hang her this way.

Stay!

She saw the company fall into extreme crisis.

She could only watch helplessly.

By then, Li Mei would definitely not watch the company her parents left her go bankrupt.

The final compromise choice is Benson, her only support at present.

So this is the direct reason why Benson always calls Li Mei from time to time to show his presence.

to be frank.

Li Mei has long been disgusted with Benson's behavior.

But I don't want to push Benson into a corner.

So I could only endure the nausea in my heart and deal with it.

After listening to Benson chattering for half an hour, I finally heard him say "goodbye".

Li Mei's tone was immediately filled with excitement and she said "goodbye".

He didn't want to wait for Benson to continue talking and just hung up the phone.

Benson clearly heard Li Mei's excitement.

But he simply thought that his promises to Li Mei worked.

It doesn't seem like Li Mei's excitement was entirely because she could finally hang up on him.

If he had known that, he would never have boasted about it to another executive in their company after hanging up the phone.

He boasted that he easily won over a strong woman from abroad.

This is a major drawback of men like Benson.

He always likes to talk about how many women he has charmed and won over.

As a way for him to show off to others how manly he is.

Little did they know that what such a man said was true.

People will also think that he is a bastard who does not respect women!

Li Mei was completely disgusted by Benson.

After hanging up the phone, he unplugged the phone line without hesitation.

Little did she know that Li Mei's behavior resulted in her being unable to answer the phone call from her grandmother's house.

That was the call Xia Feng made at the instigation of her grandparents.

The main purpose is to determine whether Li Mei has returned to the big house left by her parents.

No one answered the first time I called.

When I called for the third time, the line was busy.

When I called Li Mei again, I heard a beep but no one answered.

He called two or three more times but the same thing happened.

Xia Feng then put down the phone and stopped dialing, smiling and explaining:

"Mom and Dad, it's confirmed! Li Mei is probably home. She just doesn't want to answer our calls."

Grandpa doubted and said:

"Nonsense! I clearly saw that you didn't even make the call. How can you be sure that the girl has arrived home?"
