Chapter 361: Speed is Important
After verifying so much information, it is basically impossible for Liu Mubai to have any problems. For Li Yuan, it is completely possible to go to this meal.
So he picked out a gift from home and prepared to take it over.
And by then I can also visit Chen Jie, who has been away from Jiangzhou for almost four months, to prevent her from feeling uncomfortable.
Under normal circumstances, it might not be a big deal, but I just gave birth to a child, so I am definitely more fragile.
On Sunday morning, he got up at around seven o'clock. As the temperature warmed up, his symptoms of being lazy in bed were alleviated a lot.
After having some breakfast and saying goodbye to my family, I took a bus to Jiangzhou around eight o'clock.
At present, only the Kingkong Group is still quite busy, and Kingkong Capital will soon become a thing of the past. Employees can either voluntarily resign, take the compensation, and the company will repurchase their dividend rights, and then they can find another company to join.
Or wait for the company to go bankrupt.
Many are willing to wait for bankruptcy. After all, there is no salary deduction, so they are happy to just muddle through.
No one even needs to punch in for work. Except for General Manager Guo Meng, many people are taking a holiday in disguise.
They also know that the consequence of giving up is that no company will want them in the future. When Kingkong Capital goes bankrupt, although they can get another 300,000 or 500,000 yuan, they will also gamble the rest of their lives.
It’s just that many people really don’t have the courage.
There are more than 300 people in Kingkong Capital, and only 100 of them resigned voluntarily.
It was Meng Jianguo who brought his team to Lai Qian Capital. Lai Qian Capital is doing so well now, with a scale of several hundred billion.
Wen Yuxian survived this stock market crash at almost the lowest cost, after all, she had hinted at it in advance.
Now is the struggling stage. The market is almost dead. Almost without exception, large funds are all trapped, and the overall operation is quite difficult.
Li Yuan feels that now is the best era, and he only needs to guide retail investors to create the market.
It’s just that he doesn’t have any idea about the small market right now, and doesn’t want to be caught by anyone.
After arriving in Jiangzhou, the first thing he did was to visit Chen Jie at home, chat with her for a while, and also take a look at his daughter Chen Die.
This name was given by Chen Jie, and its meaning is self-evident.
This shows that Chen Jie still feels a little unwilling.
I stayed with Chen Jie for more than an hour and didn't talk about many serious topics before the time was up.
After saying something to Chen Jie, he went downstairs, picked up Yu Yue, and rushed towards Guo Meng's house.
Guo Meng bought his new house himself, spending more than 8 million yuan. It was the first time for Yu Yue and Li Yuan to go there, as they had only heard about it before.
Yu Yue is under a lot of psychological pressure because there are only four of us today.
Whatever meetings Li Yuan attends, security is usually taken care of by others, so he doesn't need to worry too much.
But now...
Even if there is a one in a billion chance of something going wrong, he still has to be on guard.
About twenty minutes later, the two arrived downstairs of Guo Meng's residential area. The two bodyguards got out of the car, communicated with Guo Meng first, and then waited quietly.
Guo Meng and Liu Mubai stood at the door, allowing the two bodyguards to check inside.
Li Yuan, who was sitting in the car, saw that Yu Yue was particularly nervous, so he said, "Boss Yu, we still have to give Guo Meng enough trust. Don't be too nervous."
Yu Yue nodded and said, "Boss is right, but as a subordinate, I won't think about those things. Even if the boss meets my wife and children, I will still be on guard against them."
"Haha, it's not that exaggerated. I'll set up a table at home in a couple of days and invite your family to have a meal. Can you tell me when it's convenient for your family?"
Yu Yue: "Ah? My house is definitely always convenient."
"Isn't your child in school?"
"Going to school is not as important as meeting the boss. I mean, with the IQ of my two children, they can't expect to achieve much in their lives. Having a meal with the boss is enough for them to use for the rest of their lives."
Yu Yue never knew how to write the word "awkward", and he flattered Li Yuan from all angles.
As long as the topic is not work, he has a lot of room to express himself.
If there were other people present, they would probably feel disgusted. What Yu Yue said was really shameless.
But Li Yuan felt particularly comfortable listening to it, which was why he could achieve this effect, but not others.
About half an hour later, the bodyguard came down, and Li Yuan and Yu Yue got out of the car and took the elevator upstairs.
Seeing Liu Mubai at the door, Li Yuan was a little jealous of this guy's looks, which was comparable to his own in his prime .
My skin has deteriorated a lot in recent years because of work, although I am still two days away from turning 23.
Rounding up, he is already 25.
Rounding it up, it’s already 30.
If you round it up, I'm over 50 years old.
Rounding it off again...
Liu Mubai seemed very reserved when he saw Li Yuan. After the two greeted each other, he entered the room.
After sitting down, Yu Yue's eyes were fixed on Liu Mubai. If he made the slightest movement, Yu Yue would rush up immediately.
In terms of status and industry scale, Liu Mubai can only be regarded as a small character.
Besides, he was not starting a business, he was just inheriting a small part of the family business.
The Liu family in Beijing is still very powerful. They manage assets worth more than 50 billion, most of which are in the real economy. This figure is more valuable than the 200 billion in the financial industry.
Guo Meng specially invited an aunt to cook in the kitchen, and the four of them sat on the sofa and chatted.
Most of the chat was just gossip, and there was no serious topic to talk about as the two sides were not on the same level.
Guo Meng was the one who cared the most and was recalling his first interview with Kingsoft Capital the whole time.
It was as if saying goodbye to the past few years.
Yu Yue knew better than anyone that Guo Meng had always liked Li Yuan over the years. In name, he was reminiscing about the old days, but in reality he was just reminiscing about the time he had worked with Li Yuan.
Otherwise she wouldn't have found a boyfriend, and she wouldn't even be getting married soon, and she still wanted to treat Li Yuan to dinner.
Isn’t it just that you haven’t let it go completely yet?
I can't let go of Li Yuan, but I have to respect reality.
Li Yuan also listened carefully and joined Guo Meng in reminiscing about the past.
After chatting for a while, Li Yuan turned around and asked Liu Mubai, "Mr. Liu, how did you get to know Mr. Guo? There are many people in our company who are pursuing Mr. Guo. Before, there was a man named Yao Yingsong who asked me to introduce him to him several times in private, but I refused."
Yu Yue: “???”
Guo Meng: “???”
Liu Mubai said somewhat embarrassedly: "It's also because I'm thick-skinned. After meeting Mengmeng once, I couldn't forget her, and I pestered her to date me. Thank you Mr. Li for not introducing someone else, otherwise I wouldn't have a chance."
"Haha, that Yao Yingsong is far worse than you. I just think that guy is not worthy of Mr. Guo and has no self-awareness. If he was half as good as Mr. Liu, I would have brought him together without hesitation."
Liu Mubai said modestly: "You are too kind. It is Mengmeng who gave me the opportunity, otherwise I would not be worthy of her."
"Indeed, Ms. Guo has a good figure and a good temperament. In terms of personal ability alone, there are few girls in the country who can be better than her. After getting along with Ms. Guo over the years, I have increasingly discovered how dazzling her shining points are. When I first heard that she had a boyfriend, I regretted it to death. Haha, but these are all later stories. After all, I am already married..."
Li Yuan said a lot of incomprehensible things, which confused Yu Yue who was standing next to him.
What does my boss mean by this?
The couple is getting married soon and they invite you to dinner, why are you talking all this?
Guo Meng, who was standing by, was also completely stunned.
Why didn’t Li Yuan say this earlier?
The atmosphere became weird because Li Yuan said such an abrupt sentence after chatting with Liu Mubai.
There was only one normal person present, and that was Liu Mubai.
Li Yuan's words clearly gave him the attributes of a minotaur. Regardless of whether it existed or not, at least the atmosphere of a minotaur existed.
He seemed not to have heard it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li is right. Being able to catch up with Meng Meng is the greatest luck in my life."
Li Yuan nodded and said, "In this case, I will feel relieved to hand Ms. Guo over to you. It can be regarded as an explanation for her life."
Guo Meng clenched her hands. She was completely confused and had no idea what Li Yuan was talking about.
Liu Mubai said: "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will definitely take good care of Mengmeng."
As we were talking, the food was served.
Li Yuan stood up and sat down with a few people at the dining table, as if he was the master here.
No one objected.
Just as Guo Meng was about to sit down, Li Yuan grabbed her hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Guo, please sit next to me. We can talk a little more. After all, we will have no chance to get close to each other after we get married."
Guo Meng was stunned.
It would have been fine if Li Yuan had just said those inexplicable words. Even if she was impulsive, she knew that she couldn't regret it. But now...
She looked at Liu Mubai.
This guy was not angry just now, which shows that he is very shrewd. After all, he knew that Li Yuan’s identity was not ordinary.
But aren't you angry now?
She just wanted to invite Li Yuan to dinner to say goodbye to the past once and for all, but she never thought of doing anything messy.
Seeing Liu Mubai didn't say anything, Guo Meng said, "Boss, I'd better sit with my husband."
Li Yuan didn't agree, and forcibly pulled Guo Meng to his left side, and said with a smile: "Aren't husbands and bosses the same? They are both 'old', I like to be closer... Mr. Yu, you accompany Mr. Liu, and we will have a couple of drinks later."
Yu Yue quickly agreed.
Anyway, according to his purpose, even if Li Yuan is committing a crime, he can only help Li Yuan without hesitation.
The look Guo Meng gave Liu Mubai was pleading. At this time, Liu Mubai's words would be most effective because she was spineless.
But Liu Mubai not only did not stand up, but instead said: "Mengmeng, there are just two guests, let's take care of one each, it's only natural for you to be closer to Mr. Li."
Guo Meng was so angry that she wanted to slam the table.
I have never seen a boyfriend with this kind of Minotaur attributes.
No matter how powerful Li Yuan is, can he make you give up your principles?
Today's Li Yuan is also a subversion for Guo Meng.
Some of the words spoken on the sofa before made Guo Meng a little confused, but the actions at the dining table completely overturned her perception of Li Yuan deep in her heart.
The change was so quick because Li Yuan's behavior was too outrageous.
Yu Yue took out a bottle of wine, opened it and started pouring.
They brought this upon themselves.
Just as Liu Mubai was about to stand up, Yu Yue held his shoulders and said, "Mr. Liu, there's no need to stand up. We are not outsiders."
Yu Yue put one hand on Liu Mubai's shoulder and with the other hand he brought the poured food along the edge of the table to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan took two cups and handed one to Guo Meng.
Then the four of them raised their glasses together.
After finishing the drink, Li Yuan quickly put an arm on Guo Meng's shoulder and said, "I seldom drink, but today I have given you enough face. I also know that after today, Mr. Guo will have nothing to do with me, but Mr. Liu, I have one last request, I want Mr. Guo to drink a cup of wine with me, you should not refuse, right?"
Liu Mubai put his hand down and said with an apologetic smile: "No, no, this is what I should do."
But Guo Meng said: "I haven't agreed yet!"
After that, she pushed Li Yuan's hand away and said, "Boss, let's stop here today. I admit that I liked you before, and I liked you for a long time. But today, you went too far."
She stood up and prepared to leave her seat.
She was originally very close to Li Yuan, but because of their seating arrangement, most of Li Yuan's body was blocked by her.
The moment she stood up, Li Yuan's entire body was exposed.
Liu Mubai raised his hand again, having put it down at some point, and a miniature pistol appeared in his hand.
A "bang" sound rang in Guo Meng's ears, and for a moment she felt like she was deaf.
The next second, blood splattered everywhere.
In her sight, it was just like a clip from an old black-and-white movie. She only felt Li Yuan pulling her body, and then she was completely stunned.
She saw Liu Mubai bleeding all over, and Yu Yue pressed him to the ground like a madman, holding his neck tightly.
Then she felt the pain in her body, a heart-wrenching pain.
She couldn't hear any sound.
I looked back at Li Yuan, only to see him talking and roaring non-stop...
The door opened, and she couldn't help but scream in pain, but she felt like a mute...
The next second, she was picked up by Li Yuan and walked outside.
She felt her strength growing weaker and the pain becoming less severe.
…
The blood on Yu Yue's face had not yet dried when he saw Li Yuan sitting on a bench in the corridor at the door of the hospital's operating room.
He was very ashamed, and came to Li Yuan and said, "Boss, I was careless."
Li Yuan looked calm, "It's okay, it happened suddenly, it's great to be able to do that."
Li Yuan had a lot to say.
He didn't say that he only learned the news through a micro headset midway through the process.
Because the entire living room and kitchen are all equipped with surveillance cameras.
Halfway through the conversation, the bodyguard sent him a message saying that he felt something was wrong with Liu Mubai.
However, there was a lack of evidence, and Liu Mubai's little actions were very covert, so even the few surveillance cameras with almost no blind spots could not reveal anything.
It's all just suspicion.
To put it bluntly, he forced Guo Meng to sit next to him and pulled him so close to him just to protect him from bullets.
Even though he was wearing a bulletproof vest, and even though Liu Mubai's micro pistol was not very powerful.
It only takes two seconds for the difference between friend and foe. In the two seconds before Liu Mubai drew his gun, there was nothing obviously abnormal in the surveillance footage from the bodyguard's side. At most, it was a subtle movement that was reasonable but inappropriate.
If Guo Meng didn't stand up, perhaps Liu Mubai would continue to endure it.
Now Li Yuan deeply understood what Jiang Yiling said, accuracy is not that important, speed can determine the outcome.
Liu Mubai is fast, and he is also fast.
But no one blocked the bullet for Liu Mubai.
