Chapter 48: Protect Our Family "For so many years, your eldest brother and I have been living on the edge of a knife every day. Xu Beiguan is like a bomb, or an untimed bomb. We may be blown to pieces at any time."
Zhuo Ling suddenly realized that he knew that his elder brother would not deal with the underworld people for no reason. He followed his father's back step by step, "Dad, how many times have we helped Xu Beiguan... transport?"
"Five times, not many times, but the total number is enough to kill your brother and I."
"This Xu Beiguan seems to be the kind of greedy person at first glance. Are you going to let him control you again and again?"
"What can we do? Expose him? Zhuo Ling, we can't joke about Universal. This is the hard work of two generations of your brother and I, and now your brother has become a vegetable again..."
"Dad, I understand, I understand everything." Looking at his increasingly agitated father, Zhuo Ling interrupted, "Otherwise, I wouldn't still be polite to Xu Beiguan now. His goods are gone this time.
He asked me for 100 million before he would give up. With such a large sum of money, I can't touch Global, but I don't have that much myself, so I can only come to you to discuss it."
This is not a multiple-choice question. You can choose to do it or not. They have no right to choose.
Although he was very angry, Zhuo Ling understood his father and elder brother. If it were him, he would have no choice but to follow Xu Beiguan until he was not 100% sure.
Zhuo Wannian sighed. He had done many great things in his life, but for this Xu Beiguan, he was really helpless and felt as if he was being choked. "In this matter, I just want to tell you the truth.
"
"The truth? Is there another story behind this?" Zhuo Ling was stunned, and his expression became more solemn. Could things get any worse?!
"Well, we can't let the evil spirit Xu Beiguan haunt us. Half a year ago, Xu Beiguan came to our door again and wanted to transport a batch of white flour worth five billion. Five billion. This is more than a dozen of the total of the previous four times.
Times, he is basically a devil and a bad wolf. Your eldest brother is really ignorant of his conscience and is determined to dump all the goods into the sea. As for the incident of being robbed by pirates in Southeast Asia, he made it up."
"As soon as Xu Beiguan learned that this batch of goods was lost, he spread the word that he wanted your eldest brother's life and Ning Ning's life. Ning Ning was in school at the time, and your eldest brother didn't dare to ask anyone for help, so he had to lie and ask for help.
You went to see Xu Beiguan, and he went to pick up Ning Ning from school. Originally we didn't want to drag you into trouble, but under the circumstances, your eldest brother really had no other option. Knowing that Ning Ning was in danger, he had to go, but Xu Beiguan's place
We can't reveal the truth, and we can round it off if we can. We know that with your adaptability, you can definitely deal with Xu Beiguan, so we didn't tell you the truth. We just told you according to the preset plan that the batch of goods was encountered in Southeast Asia in Shanghai.
It was robbed."
Zhuo Wannian patted his son on the shoulder and said firmly: "Zhuo Ling, you did a good job, but your eldest brother still has not escaped this disaster."
"Dad, I have thought that it was Xu Beiguan who did it. This car accident is very strange. My eldest brother has never offended anyone except this Xu Beiguan. But, according to what you said, if it is really Xu Beiguan, then shouldn't he already know about that batch of things?
The goods are gone?! That’s why I’m secretly harming my eldest brother, and maybe even the Zhuo family members. Dad, you have to tell everyone to be careful when they go out!”
"I know this. I asked Lao Li to send a few bodyguards to secretly protect your aunt and sister-in-law. Fortunately, Ningning is on winter vacation now, and this girl doesn't like to go out. Alas, Xu Beiguan, this old fox, hides very deep. He thinks that
When I get old, I won’t deal with me anymore, but I’ll come to you..."
"Dad, do you want to give this money or not?"
Zhuo Wannian was silent. He squeezed his withered hands tightly. This was the murderer who caused his eldest son to become a vegetative state. Not only could he not fight back, but he also had to give him money. "Here," he said in a low voice, "
But Zhuo Ling, we can't be weak, we have to protect the rest of the Zhuo family, understand?"
Zhuo Ling nodded solemnly, "I understand." He understood. He could deeply feel the pain of losing his family. In the future, he would also have his own wife and children. He could not let this happen again, "Xu Beiguan's
Leave the matter to me, the Zhuo family has been used by him for twenty years, and there will always be a day when he can't take advantage of it."
Yes, his main bargaining chip is youth.
No matter how ruthless and powerful Xu Beiguan is, he is already over fifty years old, and he has a lot of youth, and he will use it up when he gets older. Can a twenty-five-year-old person not be able to use up a fifty-year-old person?!
——This in-depth conversation has narrowed the distance between Zhuo Ling and his father. No matter how many grievances he had in the past, they become extremely insignificant in the face of life and death.
After all, we are all one family.
"Uncle, where should we go to eat?" Zhuo Ning was sitting in the passenger seat, talking and laughing, "I heard that a new French restaurant has opened above Jin Mao Tower, shall we try it?"
Zhuo Ling drove the car intently and said with a smile: "The French restaurant is too quiet. If you go there, wouldn't everyone in the restaurant have to listen to you?"
Zhuo Ning pouted, "Huh, uncle, why are you talking about me like that? I'm just happy..." Looking at Zhuo Ling's handsome profile, she couldn't help but be moved, "I, I can be very ladylike.
, I just talk more because I am so happy to see you."
Zhuo Ling glanced at her, then quickly looked ahead, "Little girl, I'm joking with you. Uncle likes the way you look happy and smiling."
Zhuoning was immediately elated, "Hey, really?"
"Of course, there are a lot of things going on at home recently. Your grandparents, your mother, and everyone are in a bad mood. You have to be responsible for making everyone happy."
"Well, I know, little uncle, I will definitely not cry when my father comes home. I believe that my father is conscious and he also likes my smile."
Zhuo Ling stretched out his hand and patted Ning Ning's head, "That's right..." Suddenly, he raised his chin and pointed forward, "I'll introduce you to someone."
Ning Ning followed Zhuo Ling's eyes and looked over. Her little heart twitched when she saw a girl standing on the roadside. The way Zhuo Ling looked at her was so gentle, which she had always longed for.
She asked blankly: "Uncle, who is she? Your subordinate?"
Zhuo Ling smiled without saying a word and pulled the car over to a stop.
He Nanxi had been waiting in the cold wind for a long time, her cheeks were flushed and her lips were red from the cold. As soon as the car stopped, she quickly got in the car.
"Didn't I ask you to wait inside? I'll call you when I get there."
"I'm not in a hurry."
"You're freezing... Ning Ning, call auntie."
Ning Ning felt sour, aunt? Is this her uncle's girlfriend? She pouted with a look of displeasure on her face, "Looking at her being about the same age as me, why should I call her aunt?"
Nan Xi straightened her messed up hair and said with a smile: "That's right, just call me by name. My name is He Nanxi, and you are Zhuo Ling's niece Ning Ning."
