After Wang Jinlong left, Liu Siqi shouted dissatisfied: "Dad, why did you let that Wang Jinlong go!"
"Siqi, although Wang Jinlong has made mistakes, he has done a lot for his father over the years. He is also responsible for the development of the hotel to its current scale, so I gave him a chance to correct it." Liu Haitao said with a smile.
.
"Hmph!" Liu Siqi snorted: "It is said that a person's character is easy to change but hard to change. That Wang Jinlong will never really change his character!"
Liu Haitao smiled slightly: "Don't worry, if Wang Jinlong dares to do anything wrong again in the future, I will definitely not let him off lightly."
"Dad, you are so soft-hearted!" Liu Siqi stood up and walked towards the office door.
Liu Haitao asked in confusion: "Where are you going?"
"Go to bed!" Liu Siqi said stiffly, opened the door and walked out.
Liu Haitao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "My daughter is really becoming more and more rebellious... It's really hard for me to be a father."
…
Things went smoothly. Both Jin Hai and Zhang Zhi took the initiative to explain how they framed Ma Xiaoyao. After the police gave their confessions to the two, they released Ma Xiaoyao directly.
After walking out of the Public Security Bureau, Ma Xiaoyao took a deep breath: "The air outside is still fresh." Ma Xiaoyao took out the mobile phone returned by the police and called Gu Li.
The phone rang twice and was answered.
"Sister Gu, I am acquitted." Ma Xiaoyao smiled.
"Acquitted? What's going on?" Gu Li sounded a little surprised.
"I heard that the Public Security Bureau caught the suspect who really stole the money. Even the chef Jin Hai was arrested. Jin Hai also took the initiative to admit that he framed me." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"I didn't expect that the police's ability to handle cases is quite strong. They caught the real money thief in such a short period of time." Gu Li praised.
Ma Xiaoyao smiled slightly: "It's not that the police are good at handling cases, but that I met a noble person this time."
"Noble person?" Gu Li was stunned: "What noble person?"
Ma Xiaoyao was on the phone while hailing a taxi. After getting into the taxi, Ma Xiaoyao told the driver to go to Bihai Hotel. He went to Bihai Hotel for two main purposes. The first was to thank Liu Haitao and Liu Siqi in person.
, The second is to get his car back. The car he drove from the Health Bureau is still at the entrance of Bihai Hotel.
After ordering the taxi driver, Ma Xiaoyao explained to Gu Li: "Sister Gu, I rescued a little girl last night..." Ma Xiaoyao briefly recounted the process of rescuing Liu Siqi.
"This is actually happening!" Gu Li was very surprised: "Ma Xiaoyao, you are really a good person and you are rewarded. So, it was Liu Haitao, the owner of Bihai Hotel, who rescued you?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I guess so, otherwise Jin Hai wouldn't take the initiative to plead guilty."
"I'm relieved that you're okay...I'm going to a meeting right away, so let's stop talking about it now. I'll call you later." After Gu Li finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
At this time, the taxi also arrived at Bihai Hotel.
After paying the fare, Ma Xiaoyao got out of the taxi and walked into the Bihai Hotel with steady steps.
Coincidentally, Wang Jinlong was standing in the lobby to receive guests. He looked up and saw Ma Xiaoyao walking into the hotel. Wang Jinlong was stunned for a moment, and then strode towards Ma Xiaoyao: "Welcome to Mr. Ma..." Wang Jinlong shook his hand warmly.
Ma Xiaoyao's hand shook slightly a few times, his attitude was extremely polite.
"Hello, Manager Wang." Ma Xiaoyao withdrew his hand unnoticeably and nodded politely.
"Mr. Ma, are you here to inspect the hotel's food hygiene? I will take you to inspect it now..." At this time, Wang Jinlong's attitude made a 180-degree turn, and the arrogance he had in the morning had long since disappeared.
.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I'm not here to check the food hygiene. I'm here to see Chairman Liu. I wonder if Chairman Liu is in the hotel..."
"Yes, yes, I'll call Chairman Liu now." Wang Jinlong nodded hurriedly, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called Liu Haitao. After saying a few words, Wang Jinlong hung up the phone and said to
Ma Xiaoyao said: "Chairman Liu is on the top floor, I will take you up now."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded and followed Wang Jinlong in the elevator to the top floor.
When he walked into Liu Haitao's office, Ma Xiaoyao was immediately shocked by the luxurious decoration of the office.
"Mr. Ma, I feel relieved to see that you are okay." Liu Haitao warmly greeted Ma Xiaoyao and sat on the sofa, and poured Ma Xiaoyao a cup of tea himself.
After bringing Ma Xiaoyao into the chairman's office, Wang Jinlong left voluntarily.
"Chairman Liu, thank you for helping me clear my wrongdoing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!" Ma Xiaoyao said sincerely.
"Hey, Mr. Ma, you saved my daughter's life. It's natural for me to help you. Besides, this matter itself is my hotel's fault. It's because I didn't supervise enough and hired a despicable guy like Jin Hai as the head chef.
In the end, Mr. Ma suffered an unjust injustice. In the final analysis, it is me who should apologize to you." Liu Haitao's face was full of shame.
"No, no, no!" Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand hurriedly: "I took the initiative to provoke Jin Hai, which caused the trouble. It has nothing to do with Chairman Liu."
At this moment, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Liu Siqi ran in in a hurry: "Dad, I heard that big brother is here, is it true..." Halfway through, Liu Siqi saw him sitting on the sofa.
Ma Xiaoyao's face suddenly lit up with joy. He immediately ran over and stretched out his two slender arms to hug Ma Xiaoyao: "Brother, I'm so happy to see that you are okay..."
Liu Siqi is fourteen years old this year. Her body is well developed and her appearance is even sweeter. Being hugged by such a slim and good girl makes Ma Xiaoyao feel a little embarrassed, especially in front of Liu Haitao. Ma Xiaoyao is even more embarrassed.
A little embarrassed.
After coughing, Ma Xiaoyao gently pushed Liu Siqi away and said with a smile: "You...Miss Liu..."
"Just call me Siqi." Liu Siqi smiled.
"Ah, Siqi, um, I'm here today to say thanks to you and your father. Thank you for helping me clear my name and allowing me to escape the risk of jail..." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Brother, you are so polite. You saved my life, so I should help you." Liu Siqi smiled, showing two shallow dimples on her face, which was very cute.
At this time, Liu Haitao spoke: "Yes, Mr. Ma, Siqi can be said to be my lifeblood. If you save her, you have saved me. I must thank you." As he spoke, Liu Haitao
He took out a check from his pocket and put it gently on the coffee table: "This is one million, please accept it, Mr. Ma."
Ma Xiaoyao's expression changed: "Chairman Liu, what are you doing?"
"This one million is a piece of my heart..." Before Liu Haitao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao reaching out.
"Chairman Liu, you must have misunderstood. I saved Liu Siqi not to ask for reward from you." Ma Xiaoyao said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Ma, do you think the money is too small? Then I will give you some more..." Liu Haitao thought that Ma Xiaoyao disliked the small amount. In Liu Haitao's mind, there is absolutely no one in the world who doesn't like money.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Chairman Liu, it's true that I saved your daughter, but you didn't help me clear up my grievances. I think we are now completely settled. I will never ask for this money. There is a saying.
What you say is good, a gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. Chairman Liu, I have something else to do, so I will leave first." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao stood up and walked towards the door.
"Big brother..." Seeing Ma Xiaoyao about to leave, Liu Siqi suddenly became anxious and reached out to grab Ma Xiaoyao's arm.
"Siqi, is there anything else?" Ma Xiaoyao asked in confusion.
"I...I can't bear to let you go..." Liu Siqi bit her red lips.
Ma Xiaoyao chuckled: "Don't worry, we will have many opportunities to meet in the future. I really have something to do and can't stay any longer."
"Then...then I'll call you later, and you have to answer it." Liu Siqi said worriedly.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Of course, today is a special situation. I will definitely answer your call in the future. The doctor said that you are weak and should pay more attention to rest, do you understand?" Gently removed Liu Siqi's little hand, and Ma Xiaoyao strode away.
to the office.
Looking at Ma Xiaoyao's leaving figure, Liu Siqi's face was full of reluctance.
"This Ma Xiaoyao is really a real man, not bad, very good!" Liu Haitao nodded appreciatively. He did not expect that Ma Xiaoyao would refuse to charge one million. At first, Liu Haitao thought that Ma Xiaoyao was really artificial and fake, but when he waited
After Ma Xiaoyao really walked out of the office, Liu Haitao finally confirmed that Ma Xiaoyao really didn't intend to ask for the million. He rescued Liu Siqi and didn't ask for any reward. He was a real man!
…
Health Bureau.
Sun Datong slowly put down the phone, with a rather ugly expression on his face. Director Ding Dawei called him just now and told him that Ma Xiaoyao had been acquitted. Ma Xiaoyao had been wrongly accused. The real money thief at Bihai Hotel had been captured.
.
"This Ma Xiaoyao is really lucky, everything is fine like this!" Sun Datong said through gritted teeth.
"Buzz buzz..." The phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.
Sun Datong picked up the phone and looked at it. His brows suddenly furrowed. It was a call from Li Ming. Sun Datong hesitated for a moment and reached out to answer the call: "Hello?"
"Sun Datong, what did you do? How come Ma Xiaoyao was acquitted!" Li Ming's roar came from the mobile phone. Li Ming has been in the officialdom for so many years and has some connections. Since Ma Xiaoyao was arrested by the police
, Li Ming was always paying attention to this matter, wishing that Ma Xiaoyao would go to jail as soon as possible, but just now, Li Ming received a call from a friend in the Public Security Bureau, saying that Ma Xiaoyao had been acquitted. Li Ming was furious when he heard this.
, immediately called Sun Datong to question the matter.
