For Lewis, "You should know who that person is", which is equivalent to telling the "little secret" in his heart.He believed that Hughes understood too.

There is no such thing as a "crazy pursuit" in the world of grown men.Only young boys would run straight up to the person they like and say "I love you" loudly.A cunning adult man always keeps his sense of proportion. It’s okay to be courteous to the other party, and it’s okay to say something seductive, but he doesn’t mention "I love you". He observes the other party’s reaction and then thinks about the next step.

Always maintain a pace of advancing and retreating, and retreating and defending. You can lose love, but you can't be rude.

What's more, Lewis and Hughes have a special relationship. If you want to say it all at once, Hughes rejected him, and the relationship will be awkward in the future.Therefore, Lewis first reminded Hughes that he wanted to pursue the person he liked, and then proceeded to the next step.

At the beginning, when Hughes heard that Lewis was going after a new partner, Hughes was still a little nervous: what new partner?When did he have a newcomer by his side?Am I being too careless?

However, Hughes soon understood the situation.

Lewis didn't do anything in the past few days, he just paid attention to courting Hughes, made breakfast and took care of the pick-up, and tried his best to help Hughes win the equity.If Hughes is not blind or foolish, he should understand who Lewis wants to pursue.

After understanding the situation, Hughes immediately felt relieved and enjoyed Lewis' "attention" comfortably.

Lewis showed his courtesy, and seeing that Hughes did not retreat or refuse, he had hope, and he came to speak today.

The music was still playing in the cabin.

Hughes didn't speak, and stared at Lewis with his characteristic gentle but restrained eyes.

Lewis couldn't bear the silence, so he couldn't help asking again: "You know, right? Who is the person I like..."

Lewis looked tense at the moment, hands still folded in front of him, looking rather unnatural.

Probably because he didn't want to torture poor Lewis any more, Hughes finally said, "I see."

The moonlight is hazy on the river.As ambiguous as the atmosphere at the moment.

The music in the cabin was still wafting, but suddenly entered a discordant melody - extremely sharp, it was the ringtone of Lewis' cell phone.

Lewis had to answer the ill-timed call, asking: "What's going on?"

Hughes sat across the table, watching Lewis' face turn livid.

"Okay, I'll be right over." Lewis replied, with a hint of imperceptible panic in his tone.

After hanging up the phone, Lewis stared blankly at Hughes, and said apologetically, "Brother, I..."

"What happened?" Seeing Lewis so nervous, Hughes asked with concern.

"Yes..." Lewis paused and said, "It's about the perfume company."

Hughes only said that the perfume company is a small company, even if it loses everything, it is still not enough for him, what big event can make Lewis' face green?So, Hughes speculated for a while, then said: "Isn't there something illegal and disciplined?"

Lewis' face froze, it was obvious that Hughes had misfortune.

Hughes immediately thought that there must be someone behind the scenes, his eyes turned cold, and he said, "I'll go with you.

Lewis shook his head and said, "No, didn't you just say that we are 'enemies' now, can't we be found friendly? If you accompany me to deal with it, wouldn't it be a mess?"

Hughes was also speechless, and after a while, he said, "Then why contact me anytime."

Lewis nodded, stood up and ran outside to inform the waiter, and asked the captain to dock the ship.After Lewis had finished notifying and came back, Hughes asked carefully, "What's the matter? Tell me too, and see if I can help."

Lewis said: "The customs said that our company had smuggled. I was asked to assist in the investigation."

After hearing this situation, Hughes said coldly: "If you don't investigate sooner or later, you will investigate the day before you are going to be the chairman of the board. Could it be that someone is behind the scenes?"

Lewis was startled, his back felt cold, and he said, "Could it be Uncle Qi?"

Hughes' face was even colder: "It's probably him."

With that said, Hughes showed a trace of remorse again: "Actually, you shouldn't have been involved."

Lewis smiled and said, "It's not that you let me get involved, it's me who insists on getting involved!"

Hughes only said that it is useless to regret now, Lewis has been involved in it for a long time, and he can only find a way to solve it.Therefore, Hughes pondered for a while, and said, "I have acquaintances at the customs..."

"No," Lewis shook his head, rejecting Hughes' assistance, "Don't help me at this time."

Hughes knew it in his heart, but he couldn't help worrying about Lewis.

After the boat docked, Lewis hurriedly drove to the customs.On the way, Lewis called Lao Liu again and said anxiously, "Dad, it's not good. I was reported and said that my perfume company was suspected of smuggling..."

As soon as Old Liu heard this, he immediately said the same thing as Hughes: "Don't report early, don't report later, but report the day before you become the chairman? I think someone is red-eyed!"

Lewis already knew it in his heart, but he said in a panicked tone: "Dad, what should I do? Will I go to jail?"

"Don't worry!" Old Liu comforted, "I have acquaintances at the customs... Also, don't say anything when you go there, I will call my lawyer to accompany you!"

"Okay." Lewis thanked his father and got the lawyer's contact information.

Lao Liu's personal lawyer is already very experienced and takes good care of Lewis.This lawyer has been with Lao Liu for many years, and Lewis also recognizes him.Therefore, when Lewis saw the lawyer, he blurted out: "Uncle Lu, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Lawyer Lu was surprised: "Oh, young master, do you recognize me?"

"Of course I do." Lewis said with a smile, "You are a well-known barrister."

Lawyer Lu and Lewis went to the customs to understand the situation. Old Liu also took care of the customs. He was more polite to Lewis. A clerk invited him to sit in the office for tea and explained the situation along the way.The thing is, Lewis's perfume company repeatedly imported raw materials for making perfumes, but it turned out that they were mixed with undeclared cosmetics.

Lewis was shocked: "How could it be mixed in?"

"Well, I believe you don't know about it." The clerk said politely, "But now there are all witnesses and evidence, which is not good for you."

"Physical evidence is cosmetics, right? What about personal evidence?" Lewis asked with wide-eyed eyes.

"Do you know Li Yan?" the clerk asked.

Li Yan is the rock tea girl, of course Lewis knows her.He nodded and said, "she's a partner in our company. Why, this matter has something to do with her?"

The clerk nodded and replied: "Yes, besides opening a perfume company with you, she is also reselling smuggled cosmetics, and the amount involved is over one million!"

Lewis couldn't believe it, and his face changed drastically: "I didn't know this!"

But the clerk said, "Mr. Liu, of course I believe you. But even if you don't know, but you are the main person in charge of the company, this joint responsibility is hard to say..."

But Lawyer Lu cleared his throat and said, "Since Li Yan smuggled goods by taking advantage of her position and reselling them herself, it should be Li Yan who personally smuggled ordinary goods, and this has nothing to do with the 'Dangui' company." Ah. Then, of course, it has nothing to do with Mr. Liu, the person in charge of the unit."

The clerk smiled and said, "I'll have to go to court. After all, the evidence is sufficient now, and the procuratorate will file a lawsuit soon."

The two asked about the situation, went through the formalities, and left the customs.Lawyer Lu only said: "Don't worry, this case can be acquitted. I still have experience in this area."

Lewis nodded, and said to Lawyer Lu with a smile: "Then please leave it to Uncle Lu."

"Oh, you're welcome!" Lawyer Lu said with a smile.

Lewis thought about it carefully, and then asked: "What if Li Yan insists that it has something to do with me?"

Lawyer Lu was startled, and said, "Why would she do this? It's not good for her either!"

"Hmm." Lewis was noncommittal, "I hope it's not good..."

Lewis went home with Lawyer Lu and reported the situation to Lao Liu.Old Liu was furious, and only said, "This is either Lao Qi or Hughes! One of these two must be doing something wrong!"

Lewis thought to himself: It's Uncle Qi, how could it be my elder brother?My brother is very nice to me.

After cursing and cursing for a long time, Lao Liu said to Lawyer Lu, "Old Lu, can this case be settled?"

"Don't worry, this case can be fought. I'm very sure." Lawyer Lu is quite confident, "As long as it is proved that Li Yan committed the crime personally and has nothing to do with the 'Dangui' company."

Old Liu nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you. I don't want my precious son to face prison..."

The Anti-Smuggling Bureau has revealed that the amount involved is huge. If Lewis is convicted, he may spend ten years in prison.This is the result no one wants to see.

Lewis looked at the clock and saw that it was very late. Thinking that Hughes should still be waiting for his news, he said softly, "Father, you are not in good health, so don't stay with me. You should go to bed earlier."

"I'm not sleepy!" Lao Liu waved his hand and said, "How can I sleep when something like this happened?"

"If you can't sleep, you have to sleep." My brother was still waiting for me, "Father, you have to get up early tomorrow."

After speaking, Lewis looked at Lawyer Lu again and said, "Besides, if you are going to suffer, Uncle Lu has to go home and rest."

Lao Liu thought for a while, then nodded, and said, "That's right, it's late at night... Lao Lu, you should go back first..."

Lawyer Lu comforted the two of them a few words, and made another promise before leaving first.

Lewis asked Lao Liu to rest again, and Lao Liu went back to the room first.

After coaxing Old Liu, Lewis returned to his bedroom, closed the door, drew the curtains, and carefully called Hughes.

Hughes probably really had been waiting for Lewis, and the call was connected as soon as he called: "How is it?"

Lewis said in a pitiful tone: "The amount of smuggling is so huge that I will go to jail."

If Lewis said seriously, "It's okay, don't worry," Hughes would really be worried.But hearing this exaggerated tone, Hughes knew that the problem was not serious.Hughes followed him and said in an exaggerated tone: "Prison? Really?"

"It's true," Lewis said. "You can't go to jail if you do something wrong?"

Hughes smiled and said, "Then I'll make a mistake too, and stay with you?"

Lewis listened to Hughes talking and laughing, and laughed himself, and his mood improved.

"Okay, it's all right." Lewis stopped joking, yawned, and said, "There is a board meeting tomorrow, so you should go to bed too."

However, Hughes changed the subject and said, "But didn't you finish what you said on the boat?"

Lewis blushed immediately, and said in a condescending way, "Yes... Actually, I've finished."

"That's it?" Hughes' tone seemed a little disappointed, "Nothing else?"

Lewis' face was burning up: "Isn't the point...do you know who I like?"

"Yes." Hughes said, "Then do you know who I like?"

"I..." Lewis' heart was beating rapidly.

Hughes suddenly said, "Good night."

Lewis was stunned, and could only reply, "Good night."

But it's been a rough night.

The next day, Lewis had breakfast with a slightly tired face.The same is true of old Liu, but he thought that Lewis just didn't have a good rest because of the smuggling case, and he didn't suspect that this disappointing son had been tossed and turned by the "cunning bastard Hughes".

By the time he got to the office, though, Lewis looked refreshed and showed no signs of fatigue or fatigue.

Wearing a suit and combing his hair, he walked on the top floor of the "Proud Eagle" building with an attitude of preparing for battle.This demeanor was different from before, and some employees even mistook him for Hughes.

"Remember, we're now 'against enemies.'"

This is the message Hughes sent to Lewis this morning.

Therefore, when Lewis met Hughes head-on, he deliberately put on a straight face.

Hughes is hopeless, and finds the stern-faced Lewis very cute.

Lewis sneered and said, "Zeus, I have a word for you."

"Oh?" Hughes raised his eyebrows and said, "All ears."

Lewis smiled and said, "Treasure the last few minutes as the chairman of the group."

"Oh?" Hughes smiled, "Then I'll give you a word too."

Lewis imitated Hughes and raised his eyebrows: "All ears."

Hughes took a step forward, approached Lewis' ear, and said, "I like you."

Lewis froze on the spot, gritted his teeth and was speechless.

Hughes had already retreated and walked into the meeting room.

Everyone watched the scene of "brothers turning against each other", but they were only curious about what kind of swear words Hughes said, which could make Lewis, who was still domineering just now, suddenly lost his momentum and was stunned.
