A large number of media reporters gathered at the entrance of Lee's mansion.
Needless to say, these media reporters were all invited by Li Yaozu.
When Shi Zhijian appeared, these reporters all shot at Shi Zhijian with long guns and short cannons.
Shi Zhijian didn't hide it anymore. Since he was plotted by the Li family and his daughter, he had no choice but to accept his fate.
Li Yaozu followed him, and when he saw such a large formation, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Wow, so many people?!"
Shi Zhijian turned back and glanced at him: "Don't you know?"
"I don't know!" Li Yaozu spread his hands, "I just informed a few media! Well, the old housekeeper must have done something good! How can such a thing be publicized?"
Li Yaozu said this, but in fact he smiled from ear to ear, which completely betrayed his heart.
Shi Zhijian could only be speechless towards this old and cunning father-in-law.
"Mr. Shi Zhijian, I heard that you lived here last night. Is it true?"
Immediately, a very tricky media reporter asked a very tricky question.
Shi Zhijian looked at the other party and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked: "Which media are you from?"
"I am Huashang Daily."
"Since it is the Huashang Daily, it should report more positive news, especially about business. What do you mean by being so gossipy and asking me where I rested last night?"
The reporter was a bit dumbfounded by Shi Zhijian's statement, and it took him a while to come back to his senses: "No, Mr. Shi! Although we are a business daily, we also have an entertainment section, and readers are very concerned about your marriage to Miss Li!
"
Shi Zhijian: "Thank you for your kindness, and thank you even more for your concern! As for whether I lived here last night, I think it is not important. What is important is what you think and write..."
"Mr. Shi, you are avoiding the important and taking the easy..."
"Next question!" Shi Zhijian ignored the reporter.
"Mr. Shi, this is unfair!"
"I said, next question - is there any question? You can leave without me!"
"Mr. Shi, I am a reporter for Entertainment Weekly in Bangkok. Is it true that you and Ms. Li Xuexuan are about to get engaged?" A female reporter learned from the lesson of her colleague and went straight to the point.
Shi Zhijian: "Am I engaged to Miss Li Xuexuan? Why didn't I know?"
There was a cold snort coming from behind, but it was from Li Yaozu.
Shi Zhijian immediately changed his tune: "I'm just teasing you! Of course it's real, it's more real than real money!"
"In that case, has your engagement date been determined?"
"This question -" Shi Zhijian turned around and looked at Li Yaozu with a smile: "I still need to ask Mr. Li to answer. After all, he is the elder, and he still needs to make the final decision on marriage matters! I am a very traditional man...
"
Li Yaozu was not polite either. It was obvious that Shi Zhijian would not obey his words, so he had no choice but to play in person!
Li Yaozu stepped forward, pushed Shi Zhijian away, and talked in front of the media cameras: "I asked Feng Shui masters and numerology masters about this issue. They said it is better to choose a day than to hit it. In three days, it will be an auspicious day!"
Shi Zhijian heard clearly from behind and hurriedly stepped forward: "Old man, are three days too soon?"
Li Yaozu glared at him: "Are you questioning the judgment of the immortals?"
"no!"
"Does that mean you're questioning who I am as a person?"
"Not at all!"
"Then what are you worrying about?" Li Yaozu didn't give Shi Zhijian a chance to object at all, and faced the camera again: "In a word, the big day will be in three days. I hope everyone will come to celebrate then. Li will prepare some wine to entertain everyone.
, I hope you don’t mind!”
"OK!"
“Mr. Li’s invitation must be there on time!”
"I wish Miss Li a happy engagement in advance!"
The scene suddenly became lively. Only Shi Zhijian, whose marriage was "arranged" by Li Yaozu, had a look of pain on his face that he couldn't express.
…
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xie! Because your Xie company has been unable to repay the loan for a long time, I, on behalf of HSBC Bank, want to temporarily seize the villa where you live!" HSBC Bank's chief executive Lu Keise and six of his subordinates stood with the court summons.
Xie said in the hall.
Xie Shihao, Xie Dongcheng, Xie Xi and Xie Bingqian never expected that things would develop to this point.
Because they cannot repay the loan, they will lose their home!
"Mr. Lu, aren't you making things difficult for us? We, the Xie family, are such a big family. If you kick us out, can we go to the border to live?" Xie Shihao couldn't help but plead to Lu Kaise.
Lu Kaiser smiled and said: "To be honest, Mr. Xie, as a bank employee, I am only responsible for the bank! Especially as the loan manager, my first task is to ensure the safety of bank funds, so I'm sorry, I can't help you with your request!"
As he spoke, Lu Kaise was about to instruct the people around him to seal the inside and outside of the villa.
The six men in black were all strongmen hired by the bank to carry out orders. They immediately took out their seals and prepared to take action.
"No!" Xie Shihao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Give us a few more days, and we will definitely find a way to solve it!"
"Find a way? Who do you rely on? How many of you and your son do you rely on?" Lu Kaiser's eyes narrowed and shifted from Xie Shihao and his son to Xie Bingqian intentionally or unintentionally. He felt more and more that this girl was charming and beautiful. In the past, Xie Bingqian was the eldest daughter of the Xie family, and he was just a senior clerk in the bank.
, couldn’t eat this mouthful of swan meat, now the opportunity has come, Xie’s family is facing a bankruptcy crisis, if he doesn’t take the opportunity to swallow this white swan in one gulp, I will be really sorry for myself!
Xie Shihao and his son are both men, so how could they not understand Lu Kaise's thoughts, especially when Lu Kaise's eyes were unobstructed.
Xie Shihao was furious. If this situation had happened in the past, let alone this damn Lu Kaise, he would have killed him if he had even said one more word to his precious daughter!
But now——
Hey, form is stronger than people!
Xie Bingqian avoided Lu Kaise's eyes in disgust, feeling that he was as disgusting as a fly!
"To be honest, I gave you a chance, but someone didn't take it well!" Lu Kaise stared at Xie Bingqian with an arrogant look.
Xie Bingqian was about to rebuke the other party, but Xie Shihao stopped her, then turned to Lu Kaise with a twisted face and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, we are all old friends! I know you gave us a chance, and I have always been in my heart."
I'm very grateful to you! Three days, you only need to give us three more days. If the loan is not repaid by then, we don't have to rush you, we will move out by ourselves! How about it? "
After all, Xie Shihao is also a prominent figure in Bangkok. No matter how arrogant Lu Kaise is, he must give him some face, otherwise it will be difficult for him to carry out banking work in the future if word gets out.
In the financial world, reputation and fame are very important.
Lu Kaise pinched his chin, and then made up his mind and said: "Okay, for the sake of our friendship, I will give you three more days! If your Xie family can't repay the loan in three days, then...
Sorry, I really have to put a seal on it and take over this villa!"
"Understood! Thank you, Taipan Lu, for making it possible!" Xie Shihao said with a smile on his face.
Seeing their all-powerful father humiliating a bank executive at this moment, the three brothers and sisters Xie Dongcheng couldn't help but feel how they felt.
In the past, the Xie family was the target of these bankers' efforts to fawn over.
When you are not short of money, they will try hard to get you to borrow money from their bank, saying that you must complete the business assigned by your superiors.
For this reason, the man surnamed Lu wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Xie Shihao to ask for help.
Now the situation has changed. The man named Lu has become a superior Bodhisattva, and it is Xie Shihao's turn to kowtow to him.
After Lu Kaise and his men left in a show of force, Xie Shihao seemed to have suddenly become much older. He returned to the hall and sat down on the sofa. Without saying a word, he just took out a cigar, bit it in his mouth and sighed.
Xie Dongcheng, brother and sister, moved forward.
"Father, what should I do?" Xie Dongcheng asked.
"How about... I go find someone to borrow it?" Xie Xi tentatively asked.
Xie Shihao raised his head and glared at him: "You think it's a loan of 350,000? It's 3 million, 50 million! Who is willing to borrow it?"
Xie Xi shut up.
At this time————
"Maybe... someone is willing to borrow it!" It was Xie Bingqian who spoke.
Xie Shihao and his son looked at her together.
Xie Bingqian hesitated and said, "It's that Shi Zhijian! If we ask him for help, maybe he will help us..."
"Third sister is right!" Xie Dongcheng said immediately, "As the saying goes, the person who untied the bell must tie the bell! The current situation of our Xie family is all caused by Shi Zhijian! If he is willing to take action, then our Xie family will definitely be saved!"
Xie Xi angrily rebuked: "Shi Zhijian is our mortal enemy of the Xie family, how can we plead with him? What's more, Shi Zhijian is a well-known womanizer. We must not sacrifice the happiness of our third sister and let someone named Shi taint our innocence!"
"Father, I hope you can put the overall situation first! We will all remember the sacrifice of Third Sister!"
"Father, you must not sacrifice your third sister, let alone take advantage of the man named Shi!"
"Father, at this point, we have no choice!"
"Father, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. We can find other ways!"
"Shut up, all of you!" Xie Shihao said angrily while biting his cigar, "Look what you are like now? All of you have no rules and no clues! Don't say that I don't agree to sacrifice your third sister, even if it is true
If you want to sacrifice her, will the one named Shi be willing?"
"Huh?" Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi looked at each other in confusion.
"Didn't you read the news today? Shi Zhijian has already announced that he will be engaged to that girl Li Xuexuan in three days! Tell me, what chance do you three sisters have?"
Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi were speechless.
Shi Zhijian’s speed is too fast!
To be precise, the Li family is too fast and wants to marry their daughter to Shi Zhijian!
Xie Shihao chewed his cigar and blew out a puff of smoke, and glanced at his daughter Xie Bingqian intentionally or unintentionally: "Three days! Either Shi Zhijian will successfully get engaged to Nali girl! Or our Xie family will be ransacked and our family will sleep on the street! Time is urgent.
ah!"
"Father! I will work hard!" Xie Bingqian suddenly felt a heavier burden, "I will definitely find a way to deal with Shi Zhijian and not let the Xie family go bankrupt!"
"Daughter, you - how can I bear it!" Xie Shihao beat his chest, "That Shi Zhijian is a devil, how can I push you into the fire pit?"
"That's right, sister! You said the same thing last time, but it's not the same now?"
Xie Bingqian blushed. Yes, she had indeed made up her mind to seduce Shi Zhijian a few days ago, but when it came time to do it, she was a little unable to do it. After all, she was from a girl's family, how could she do such a thing?
What's more, there was still a trace of luck in her heart. Maybe there would be a turnaround in the next few days. Unexpectedly, the turnaround did not come, but the crisis came.
Now it was urgent, and the situation at home was even more urgent. She could no longer hold on.
"Don't worry, father, eldest brother, second brother! I, Xie Bingqian, don't have much ability as a female generation, but I will never watch our Xie family be destroyed!" As she spoke, Xie Bingqian turned around and left.
"My dear daughter, what are you going to do?" Xie Shihao hurriedly called her.
"I'm going to find that Shi Zhijian now! Since he is willing to get engaged to that Li Xuexuan, then I, Xie Bingqian, will definitely deal with her! After all, Li Xuexuan and I are of the same name, whether it is appearance, figure, or talent, I am
Not weaker than her!" Xie Bingqian gritted her teeth, full of confidence.
"No! I will never allow you to do this! I, Xie Shihao, have been a wise man all my life. I am worthy of heaven and earth. How can I let my precious daughter do such a thing? No! Absolutely not!" Xie Shihao
He waved his hands vigorously and tried his best to stop him.
"No, father, I have decided to leave!" Xie Bingqian said and turned to leave.
"Daughter! My baby girl!" Xie Shihao screamed hysterically, and he breathed a sigh of relief until his daughter Xie Bingqian's back disappeared, "Isn't it okay if I don't force you?! I'm already so old, you and I have to be together.
Let’s act together in such a drama!”
Xie Dongcheng stepped forward: "Father, I think Third Sister has really made up her mind this time and is not just talking about it."
"Yes, father! Third sister has always respected you. Now that our Xie family is facing a disaster, she will definitely do her best!"
"Of course I know this!"
I won’t do anything like this!”
"Father is right! We are all doing this for the good of the Xie family!"
"Yes, my sister is going to get married after all - rather than being insulted by the HSBC executive named Lu, it would be better to let the insult named Shi go! At least the one named Shi is much handsomer!"
"Of course, it's also richer!"
The father and son looked at each other and smiled, feeling that they had found a "good home" for Xie Bingqian!
But then Xie Dongcheng and Xie Xi had doubts about the brothers again.
"Father, what do you think Third Sister will do to get rid of the man named Shi?"
"Yes, that man named Shi is extremely treacherous and suspicious by nature. I'm afraid it will be difficult for my third sister to even get close to him!"
Hearing this, Xie Shihao pondered for a moment and crushed his cigar in the ashtray: "If this girl is smart, she should understand that sentence - good hunters often appear in the form of prey!"
