Although I didn't have much contact with him, his voice was very recognizable. As soon as he opened his mouth, I knew it was him.
In addition, the number belongs to Guangdong, which makes it even more certain that it is him.
I didn't expect him to contact me, and I was suddenly caught off guard.
But I still tried my best to calm down, and then replied: "It's Mr. Li! Is something wrong? Mr. Li."
"It's safe to be here! I heard that you are now running a clothing company, right?"
"Well, there is such a thing." At this time, I didn't intend to hide it anymore, and he wouldn't be surprised if he knew.
"It's very good! I thought that the failure of Yuanfeng Group would make you unable to recover, but I didn't expect that you surprised me."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Li is joking. I'm just making a living now, and I'm not as good as before."
"You know how I know that?"
"I'm quite curious. I'm not famous now. How did Mr. Li know about it?"
"You are very capable, I asked you to take down Tianyu's clothes. This is no small matter!"
I smiled and said, "Mr. Li, where did you start talking about this? What do you mean I won Tianyu Clothing? I am just a small shareholder."
Li Liyang also smiled, but his smile felt like a sneer even through the phone.
"Don't be humble. I understand many things, but there is one thing I want to remind you. I don't care what you do now, but I advise you to behave a little better. Do you understand what I mean?"
Of course I understood that he was threatening me.
I smiled and replied: "Mr. Li, I don't quite understand."
"Don't understand? Then think about it slowly, think clearly about how you failed before, and don't make the same mistakes again."
"Thank you, Mr. Li, for reminding me."
After saying that, I hung up the phone directly.
I'm really not afraid of his threat now, because I have all the means to deal with him, but I don't want to waste time on him now.
But I still feel a little uneasy. Li Liyang is so grim, and I don’t know what he will do next.
After thinking about it, I decided to call Xiao Siya and talk to her.
After the call was made, the call was quickly answered. Xiao Siya said, "What's the matter?"
"Busy?"
"What did you say?"
"Li Liyang just called me."
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, and then Xiao Siya said, "I told you, he already knows about you."
"He threatened me."
"What did you threaten?"
I smiled bitterly and said, "He asked me to behave myself. This was clearly reminding me not to cross his red line. He probably knew that I was going to deal with him."
"You made this call to me for more than just this, right?"
I smiled again and said, "You can get in touch with him now. If he does anything, you should know it, right?"
Xiao Siya sighed and said, "I really don't know what he did. If I knew, I wouldn't be able to manipulate him like this."
"Anyway, at least you are better than me! If he makes any move, please remind me."
"You don't need to tell me, we are just grasshoppers on a rope now."
I responded twice, and Xiao Siya reminded me again: "Don't forget to go to the United States the day after tomorrow. Buy your ticket in advance. You don't have to come to Shenzhen. We will meet in New York."
I thought about it and said to her: "Don't worry about the day after tomorrow, let's do it tomorrow. I've pretty much taken care of the things here."
"you sure?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Okay, look at the flights over there and buy the earliest flight."
"Wait a moment, let me take a look first."
I stopped the car on the side of the road and started checking.
I said to Xiao Siya: "The earliest flight is at six in the morning, but it requires two transfers, one in Shanghai and one in San Francisco."
"It's not possible. It would be too troublesome to transfer twice. Let's see if there are direct flights."
"Then it's 12 noon and we'll stop in Hong Kong."
"What's the flight number? I'll check it right away."
"cx846."
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll check it right away."
I lit my cigarette and waited for a while. Xiao Siya said to me: "Just this flight. I can go to Hong Kong first to wait for you. We are on the same flight."
"Is this okay? Isn't it troublesome for you?"
"It's not troublesome. It's not too far from here. It's better to take a flight to avoid too much trouble."
"Okay, then I'll buy it! Do you only want to buy it one way?"
Xiao Siya responded, and after ending the call, I purchased the ticket for 14,000.
This is already relatively cheap. A few years ago, I remember that air tickets to the United States started at at least 30,000.
I sent a screenshot of the purchased order to Xiao Siya, and she immediately sent a screenshot. We were on the same flight, but she was on it in Hong Kong.
I don't want to delay it any longer. I want to get it checked out as soon as possible. No matter whether it can be cured or not, I still want to give myself some comfort.
However, I still don't know how to explain to An Lan that my departure will take at least four or five days.
After returning home, An Lan was teaching Xiao Man how to write in the living room, and Aunt Wang was cooking in the kitchen.
Seeing that I was back, An Lan immediately said to me: "You're back?"
"Yeah." I nodded, came to the living room, and took a look at Xiaoman's writing.
Although it's a little crooked, it's pretty good for her who hasn't gone to school yet.
"Dad, look at what I wrote." Xiao Man immediately picked up the writing book and showed it to me.
"Well, that's good. You write it first. I'll tell my mother something."
After saying that, I said to An Lan again: "An Lan, come with me."
An Lan looked at me doubtfully, then followed me into the study room and asked me, "What's wrong?"
"I'm going to the United States tomorrow."
"Going to the United States? What for?" An Lan suddenly asked in surprise.
"It's Xiao Siya. She asked me to go there with her to participate in a clothing industry event. She said it was very important. She told me early in the morning."
An Lan frowned slightly, looked at me and said, "How long will it take to go?"
"Maybe it will only take two or three days, but if you include the time of flying back and forth, it will probably take more than five days."
"Are you and her alone?"
I nodded and hurriedly said to her: "Don't think too much! I promise it's just a work intersection."
"I believe you, then go ahead and call me if you need anything. Pay attention to your safety when you go out and take care of yourself."
I smiled and nodded, and An Lan asked me again: "Which city in the United States are you in?"
"New York."
An Lan nodded again and said, "I happen to have a classmate over there. If you have any trouble, just call me and I will contact that classmate."
"There won't be any trouble. I just go to work, not to fight." I smiled and said jokingly.
An Lan rolled his eyes at me and said, "I grew up abroad. How can we be as safe abroad as we are at home? Anyway, just be careful and just call me if you have any questions."
"Well, I understand, I will come back safely."
But who knows, once I go, I will almost never come back...
