Chapter Nine Hundred and Fifty Second

Just when Li Dong felt that there were too many things and he was a little irritable.

On May 9th, Li Dong finally heard some good news.

Carrefour was planning to sell it in a package without splitting it up. As soon as the plan came out, Bealead was the first to announce its withdrawal from the five shortlisted companies.

Of the five companies, Bealead is by no means the weakest.

However, Bealead is too scattered, and its subsidiaries operate independently. At this time, they have to spend tens of billions to acquire Carrefour, and they really can't do anything.

What's more, Bailian is the number one in China, and Bailian is not too motivated.

If Carrefour is willing to split, they can consider increasing investment in certain regions.

But if you pack it as a whole, forget it.

Bailian withdrew, leaving Yuanfang, China Resources, Tesco, and Intime.

To be honest, not to mention Li Dong, I'm afraid the others didn't take Yintai seriously, they were just a shit-stirring stick.

It is not China Resources that Li Dong really feels threatened, but Tesco.

Tesco has always wanted to enter the Chinese market, but they came too late. When Tesco entered China, the market was almost divided.

At this time, Tesco is the most competitive.

Li Dong really wanted to hear the news that Tesco had announced its abandonment, but unfortunately it didn't, which made Li Dong a little disappointed.

However, the merger has just started, and Li Dong is not in a hurry for the time being.

In 2008, Carrefour withdrew from the Chinese market, which still had an advantage for Li Dong.

At least now, affected by the financial crisis, ordinary companies are afraid to make such a large-scale investment.

In a few months, if the negotiations are not over, when Lehman Brothers goes bankrupt and the financial turmoil sweeps across China, they might still be able to pick up a big bargain.

...

May 10th.

Yuan Xue still didn't call.

Li Dong planned to return to Jiangbei on the 11th, and there was no time to wait at this time.

On the morning of the 10th, Li Dong asked Tan Yong to drive him to Yuan Xue's community.

The house Yuan Xue and Liu Yue rented was in an old community, some old communities in Shanghai, and the environment was quite poor.

Although Jing'an District belongs to the central urban area, there are still red brick houses from the last century preserved here.

The place where Yuan Xue and the others live is such an old community.

If Tan Yong hadn't led the way, Li Dong might not have been able to find the place.

Turning left and right, the two stopped downstairs in a three-story red brick building.

Tan Yong stopped, turned to Li Dong and said, "Mr. Li, Ms. Yuan lives in the room on the left on the second floor. Miss Yuan should be at home this Saturday."

Li Dong nodded and walked towards the stairs.

Seeing that Tan Yong was about to follow, Li Dong waved his hands and said, "Just wait downstairs."

"President Li, sunglasses!"

Li Dong smiled, took the sunglasses handed over by Tan Yong and put them on.

Stepping up the dilapidated stairs to the second floor, Li Dong couldn't help frowning.

Yuan Xue's family background is not bad, why did she rent a house here?

Li Dong wondered if he bought a house in the Shanghai stock market and asked Yuan Xue to move there.

But after thinking about it, Li Dong felt that Yuan Xue would not go.

She was used to being proud. Back then, when Yuan's father and Yuan mother were about to be forced to jump off the building by their creditors, Yuan Xue didn't come to beg her, but went to sell the necklace.

Because of that, there was quite a commotion.

With a sigh in my heart, Li Dong has already reached the second floor.

There is no anti-theft door, only an old wooden door, the door is closed tightly, but there are faint voices inside, Yuan Xue should be in the room.

...

inside the house.

Liu Yue was bored and switched TV stations, and while eating snacks, she said to Yuan Xue who was leaning on the sofa next to her, "Axue, it's been a rest day after all, how boring it is to stay at home, let's go shopping together?"

Yuan Xue shook her head and said, "I don't want to go."

"Axue, these few days you..."

Liu Yue was a little hesitant, but after thinking about it, she said, "Your condition is not good these days, is it because of Li Yong?"

The last time Yuan Xue didn't return all night, Liu Yue knew something must have happened.

She is not a primary school student either, so of course she knows everything she should know.

When Yuan Xue came back that day, her walking posture was wrong, and Liu Yue guessed what happened right away.

She didn't expect that Yuan Xue would have sex with the man she met on the subway in just one night.

Originally, he planned to wait for Yuan Xue to come back and tell her about Li Yong by himself, but because of fare evasion, Liu Yue didn't like that man too much.

But later, seeing that the two of them had developed such a relationship, Liu Yue suppressed it and said nothing.

But seeing that Yuan Xue's condition is getting worse day by day, Liu Yue still can't help but say: "Axue, don't blame me for talking badly. To be honest, I don't think that Li Yong is a good person.

Forget about fare evasion on the subway, you should have just met that day, right?

In the end, when we first met, you were... It was the first time that he was just like you. This kind of man is too hateful!

And you came back by yourself that day, and he didn't even deliver it.

I haven't seen anyone in the past few days. This kind of man is unreliable.

By the way, I haven't even made a phone call, I'm simply a cold-blooded animal! "

Yuan Xue shook her head lightly and said, "That's not the case, he's busy, besides, I'm actually fine..."

Liu Yue snorted and said, "What are you busy with? This is all a man's excuse, you really believe it."

Liu Yue said again: "Next time, it's better not to let me see him. If I see him, I have to scold him!"

"Boom boom boom!"

As soon as Liu Yue finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

The two looked at each other, Liu Yue got up and said, "Who is it?"

"Boom boom boom!"

There was no answer from outside the door, and the knocking continued.

Liu Yue murmured: "I don't answer the questions, don't be the landlord again, such a broken house, come to check every day, is it annoying?"

After muttering a few words, Liu Yue still gathered up all the groceries he had just eaten, stuffed them into the drawer, and then stepped on his slippers to open the door.

After opening the door, Liu Yue realized that it was not the landlord.

After taking a look at Li Dong, Liu Yue felt a little familiar.

The last time she met Li Dong in the subway at night, she didn't look much, and she didn't recognize him for a while after changing her clothes.

But she quickly remembered that as soon as she saw the sunglasses, Liu Yue knew that this pretentious guy was the one just discussed.

Thinking of what I said just now, I met and scolded once, and the other party ate and wiped off his face for several days, Liu Yue's attitude was not good, so she forced a smile and turned to Yuan Xue and said, "Axue, that friend of yours!"

After speaking, Liu Yue went back to the sofa without entertaining Li Dong.

Li Dong didn't mind either, he smiled at Yuan Xue and said, "Why, you're not welcome?"

Yuan Xue didn't expect Li Dong to come here, she was taken aback for a moment before softly saying: "No, but why did you come here?"

"If you don't come to me, I have to come to see you." Li Dong smiled, walked towards Yuan Xue, sat down beside her, and then continued: "Your vigilance is too poor, Anyone who knocks will open the door, it's too unsafe for two girls to live here."

Liu Yue saw that Li Dong was picking on him as soon as he came, and she felt wronged for Yuan Xue, so she couldn't help but muttered: "I don't want to live here, I want to get closer. The better neighborhood here in Jing'an, the bigger the house, the rent is the least. Get more than 3000.

The company only subsidizes 500 per person. If you want to rent a better house, you have to subsidize more than 1,000 a month.

During our internship, the salary is only 2,500, and we have to eat and buy some daily necessities, so we don’t need to spend money.

If you really love A Xue, then don't talk about it, it's useless to talk about it. "

Li Dong was a little dumbfounded, Liu Yue's meaning was so obvious, he naturally understood.

Looking at Yuan Xue, Li Dong said softly, "Then why don't you change to another house?"

Before Yuan Xue could speak, Li Dong said again: "I'm afraid I have to leave tomorrow, there are too many things going on in Jiangbei. I understand what you're thinking, and you probably won't feel comfortable asking you to go back with me.

But if I change a house and live in a safer place, I can feel more at ease, what do you think? "

Different from Qin Yuhan, Qin Yuhan is very dependent on Li Dong, Li Dong and Qin Yuhan are together, Li Dong can be the master.

But on Yuan Xue's side, she had a big opinion of her own.

If you don't discuss it with her, I'm afraid she won't be willing.

Liu Yue next to him didn't expect Li Dong to actually say this, and glanced at him suspiciously for a moment.

This man even wants to evade fares on the subway. Not to mention he is stingy, he must not have much money, so he really wants to change Yuan Xue's house?

Don't you just slap a swollen face to pretend to be fat?

Just when she was full of doubts, Yuan Xue looked at Li Dong, and after a while, she said softly: "You decide."

In the past two days, she has also figured something out.

Since I can't let him go, why bother to make a clear distinction.

But thinking of Li Dong's identity, Yuan Xue said again: "You don't need to buy it, just rent it."

"puff!"

Liu Yue at the side spurted out a mouthful of orange juice, and looked at Yuan Xue in a daze.

Okay, I didn't expect Ah Xue to be so good at blowing.

What do you mean don't buy it, just rent it?

She thought that this man would buy her a house, didn't she think too much?

In the Shanghai stock market, even a house in the suburbs is not cheap. This year it has dropped a little bit, but a house in the suburbs can’t be bought without hundreds of thousands.

If you buy it in Jing'an District, don't even think about it if you don't have more than one million.

Liu Yue wouldn't believe it, but a fare evader could afford a house here.

Li Dong and Yuan Xue didn't care whether she believed it or not, seeing Yuan Xue agreed, Li Dong was slightly relieved.

Then he looked at the time and said: "It's 11 o'clock, let's go out to have a meal together, and look for a house in the afternoon."

Liu Yue shook her head and said, "I'm not going, you go."

Yuan Xue persuaded her a few words, but seeing that Liu Yue was determined not to go, she did not persuade her any more.

After getting up and changing clothes, Yuan Xue and Li Dong went downstairs together.

Liu Yue leaned on the window and looked at it. She was just looking casually at first, but suddenly found something was wrong.

Another man I met on the subway that day was also downstairs at this time.

And judging by his actions, it's obvious that he doesn't look like a friend, but rather... like a follower!

Liu Yue graduated from a famous university, and she is not stupid.

I didn't think much about it last time, but thinking about it this time, it seems like it was the same last time.

At that time, the middle-aged uncle didn't talk much, and he had been following Ah Xue's boyfriend, so he obviously didn't look like a friend.

Could it be that the guy just now is really a rich man?

Can the rich take the subway?

Liu Yue was full of doubts, but she never thought about Li Dong.

Even though Li Dongjin was wearing sunglasses all the time, she only thought Li Dong was pretending to be aggressive, and she really couldn't associate the stingy and cold-blooded man in her eyes with her idol.

...

Don't mention what Liu Yue thinks.

Li Dong and Yuan Xue went downstairs, got in the car and drove to a nearby restaurant.

In the car, neither of them spoke.

When we got to the restaurant, Tan Yong was no longer here, so Yuan Xue laughed at herself: "Am I being taken care of by you now?"

Li Dong shook his head and said: "That's because you are overthinking. If I really want to support a woman, I won't be so shabby."

Yuan Xue gave him a white look, and sighed softly while holding her chin: "I've been thinking a lot these past few days, and thinking about it is quite annoying.

But in the end, I finally figured something out. "

Li Dong also felt that she had changed a lot, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "What did you figure out?"

Yuan Xue looked at him and smiled and said, "I figured it out. As long as you are not married, I can use you as a male publicist. When you get married, if the bride is not me, then let's get together and break up, what do you think?" Woolen cloth?"

The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. Is it so fierce to change from a girl to a woman?

What is male public relations, you just call it a duck, and now I have fallen to this point in your eyes?

Seeing his distorted expression, Yuan Xue couldn't help laughing, but felt sad in her heart.

I said I'm not a bride, but you didn't refute it, it seems you guessed it right.

Without revealing her deepest thoughts, Yuan Xue pretended to be cheerful, and chatted happily with Li Dong during the meal.

In the afternoon, Li Dong accompanied Yuan Xue to find a room.

Finally, in a new community, I picked a house with two bedrooms and one living room.

Li Dong didn't buy it and paid a year's rent.

Yuan Xue watched from the side and didn't refuse, if this would make him feel more comfortable, then let him do it.

After the house was settled and the key was obtained, Li Dong said to help her move.

Yuan Xue shook her head and said: "Forget it for a few days, let's move in a few days, and I have to come and clean it. You don't have to worry about me. By the way, I will let Liu Yue live in with me later. Do you have any objection?"

Li Dong quickly said: "You can decide for yourself."

"Well, it's too lonely to be alone, it's good to have a companion."

These words were Yuan Xue's unintentional words, but Li Dong's heart trembled slightly, and he said softly: "Why don't you go to Pingchuan with me."

Yuan Xue smiled, shook her head lightly, and said, "No, it's said that distance creates beauty, so it's fine as it is now."

Li Dong glanced at her, feeling a little uncomfortable.

He didn't know whether he was right or wrong, but with this situation, it was definitely impossible for him to abandon Yuan Xue.

After exhaling, Li Dong didn't speak again.

After strolling around for a while, having dinner outside, when it was getting dark, Li Dong sent Yuan Xue back to the rented house.

When going upstairs, Yuan Xue didn't let Li Dong take her upstairs.

Waving at Li Dong, Yuan Xue smiled brightly and said, "Have a safe trip, I won't see you off tomorrow."

Li Dong's throat was a little itchy, and he held it in for a while before he said sullenly: "Don't think so much, since I, Li Dong, said you are my woman, then you will be all your life!

You are not anyone's vassal, nor is anyone's substitute. If other women have it, you must have it too! "

Yuan Xue glanced at him in a daze, and then couldn't help laughing and said: "Although I don't quite understand what you mean, but I believe you, I'm going up!"

After speaking, Yuan Xue went upstairs, her footsteps seem to be much lighter than before.

Li Dong continued to stand downstairs for a while, until the upstairs door opened, Li Dong turned and left.
