MTL - Winner Takes All-Chapter 11

Li Shuo's brain went blank for a moment.

Those short lines were almost blurred by him. He pressed the callback button hard, but the phone turned off unexpectedly. He stomped his desk angrily and called his assistant's phone.

The phone rang for a long time before answering. Li Shuo had long forgotten that it is midnight in China, and yelled, "Li Chengxiu!"

The assistant was stunned, not because he didn't wake up, but because he had been with Li Shuo for more than three years. He had never seen the boss so fiercely, screaming, "Ah ... Li ... Li Chengxiu?"

"Where is Li Chengxiu ?!"

"He ... he's ..." The assistant was awake for a few minutes. "Isn't he home? I'll pick him up tomorrow and help him move to the hotel."

Li Shuo wiped his face hard, forcing himself to calm down: "Xiao Guo, you work hard, go to Li Chengxiu's house now, he may be gone."

"Let's go? I'm still on the phone with him during the day to set a moving time."

"Go now and reply to me after you confirm."

"Yes, yes, I'll go now." The assistant scrambled out of the bed.

Hanging up the phone, Li Shuo anxiously froze back and forth in the room, and read the text message several times. Despite this plain text, Li Shuo still smelled a sense of despair.

Shiyou * was Shao Qun who went to Li Chengxiu and threatened himself ...

He had been worried about the accident for the past two days, but it still happened. He didn't think that Shao Qun would go to trouble, but he thought that maybe he had met Shao Qun, Li Chengxiu would be more discouraged and more willing to come to him.

But he just left like this? !!

Where will he go? Who will he go to? Will he still contact himself?

Li Shuo felt that his emotions were boiling, worried, confused, and anxious, and rushed out of his head. He wouldn't be so nervous if he didn't get too far away.

Waiting restlessly in the room for half an hour, the assistant called back.

Li Shuo also held a little expectation: "How?"

"There's really no one at home." The assistant's voice seemed to be crying anxiously. "Ask the security guard and say that people are leaving in the daytime with luggage. President Li, what should I do?"

Li Shuo closed his eyes and changed his breath deeply: "Give me a ticket and I'll go back."

"But Xiang Xiang said you must never come back ..."

"Don't worry about it, book it for me ..." Li Shuo calculated the time when he could return to New York as soon as possible to pack and rush to the airport, "the plane after seven."

"... OK, OK."

"Check all the traffic information you can find right away. Be sure to find Li Chengxiu."

"Yes!"

Li Shuo rubbed his temples twice, tossed the phone aside, and started packing.

I can't think about it so much now, even if Li Chengxiu wants to break up with him and would rather leave than want to come to the United States, the pain and despair he read from this text message is enough to make him understand that Li Chengxiu needs help now. At this time, how could he be on vacation here safely!

Packing his luggage hastily, he picked up the box and was going downstairs.

As soon as the door was opened, Zhao Jinxin was about to knock on the door, and his hands raised in the air had not had time to let go. His gaze fell and fell on Li Shuo's suitcase: "Where are you going?"

"I want to go back to China." Li Shuo crossed him and left.

Zhao Jinxin held his shoulders together: "What's going on? Hurry."

"I don't want to explain, anyway, something urgent, I want to go back immediately." Li Shuo reached out and wanted to push him away.

Zhao Jinxin grabbed Li Shuo's arm, walked forward, and then clamped his neck with his right arm, almost holding him full of arms, and then twisted and dragged the person into the room.

The series of moves were too fast and too neat, Li Shuo hadn't recovered yet, and Zhao Jinxin had already kicked the door. Although Li Shuo did not understand martial arts, he always felt that it was some kind of gentle and improved version of the capture. If his neck was pinched in this way, it would not suffocate, but he could not escape.

Zhao Jinxin quickly let go of his hand, but stuck in front of the door and looked at Li Shuo with a smile.

Li Shuo dropped the box and said angrily, "What are you doing ?! I really have something urgent!"

"You said you would drink with me tonight." Zhao Jinxin said innocently.

"You're a little bit heavy, OK?"

Zhao Jinxin shrugged and said, "I don't know what happened in your country, but did you forget that you are taking a risk now when you return to China?"

"I know, but I have to go back."

"why?"

"This matter has nothing to do with you."

Zhao Jinxin opened his arms and laughed, "If you don't say, I won't let you go, baby, you really can't beat me."

Li Shuo clenched his fists. He didn't really have the thought to verify whether Zhao Jinxin was true or not. He gasped heavily: "Li Chengxiu may be missing."

Zhao Jinxin stunned: "What?"

Li Shuo said irritably, "I can't explain it to you, anyway, I'm going to return to China now to give way."

Zhao Jinxin blocked the door unsteadily: "Missing? Why?"

"What does this have to do with you!" Li Shuo raised the volume. "He sent a text message and the person left. The matter may be serious. Can you be sensible?"

Zhao Jinxin's face changed slightly: "Go? Did he take the initiative?"

"Correct!"

Zhao Jinxin groaned for two seconds: "He's gone, what's the use of you going back?"

"you……"

"If you can't go back, you can still find it. If you can't find it, you can't find it." Zhao Jinxin interrupted him. "However, if you go back and something goes wrong, how much energy can you devote to find him? You just go back. It's just chaos. "

Li Shuo was speechless for a moment.

Zhao Jinxin came over and pressed him to sit down, "You calm down first. It's been more than an hour since you returned to the room, which means that you have received the news and made a decision in such a short period of time. Yes, don't you feel too impulsive and reckless? "The voice was gentle and gentle, and there was a reassuring force in it.

Li Shuo looked at the carpet dullly, and the stiff spine slowly relaxed, accompanied by a sigh.

Zhao Jinxin crouched in front of him, held his hand, and smiled and said, "In fact, you can think about it after thinking about it, don't worry, don't be impulsive, you are not like Uncle Li."

Li Shuo smiled reluctantly. Having said that, of course he would not understand. He really ca n’t go back. In terms of finding someone, what he can do is spend money and find a relationship. The two can be communicated by phone. In case he goes back, he is really detained. Difficult to take into account.

But he was so confused now that he couldn't even sit on a stool.

Zhao Jinxin squeezed his palms: "You are so anxious, if only for me."

For a moment, Li Shuo was unable to look directly at Zhao Jinxin's eager eyes, avoided his eyes, and stood up.

Zhao Jinxin was very different when they first met. The first time he met, the man was frivolous and vagrant, like a gorgeous poisonous snake, approaching step by step, so it was only suitable for a distant view. Later, he found that he loves to be coquettish, foolish, and lovable, but always controlled within a single inch It is disgusting, and even often feels a bit cute, but with the deepening of contact, Li Shuo gradually became confused and bewildered by the love he showed, and also saw the tenderness behind his cynical.

His impression of Zhao Jinxin soared from the bottom, and now he feels a little guilty because he cannot respond to Zhao Jinxin's enthusiasm.

Zhao Jinxin also stood up: "I have a lot of friends in China, and I will definitely help you find it. At this time, don't go outside me. Finding talent is the most important thing, isn't it?"

Li Shuo opened his mouth and finally nodded slowly: "Jin Xin, thank you."

"You're welcome." Zhao Jinxin slightly hooked Li Shuo's chin with his index finger. "So, did you break up?"

Li Shuowei: "How can you think of this now?"

"Don't run away, is Li Chengxiu's attitude not obvious enough?"

Li Shuo turned his face away: "He must be very difficult now, no matter how to break up, I hope he is good and will help him."

"You are such a good person." Zhao Jinxin said slowly.

Somehow, Li Shuo listened to this sentence with a bit of irony. He felt that he probably thought more, or that Zhao Jinxin was jealous.

Li Shuo shook his head: "Jin Xin, let me be quiet for a while."

"Okay." Zhao Jinxin patted him on the shoulder. "You send the information you have on my phone. I'll ask a friend for help. Rest assured, we will find him."

Li Shuo nodded gratefully.

Since it was not yet dawn in China, Li Shuo anxiously waited for the news at that end. He repeatedly recalled every bit of acquaintance with Li Chengxiu, and the more he thought about it, the more he became panicked.

He was a little reconciled. He asked himself that he was a person of integrity, kindness, and strict self-discipline. There was no big deviation in life and work, and it was always popular. Why is his emotional experience always unsatisfactory?

Those naive feelings in his teens did not mention, his former favorite and most like-minded boyfriend at university, parted ways because of temporary remorse, refused to go with him to Africa, these years no matter who he associates with, he is sincere Treat each other and respect, but in the end, they all broke up without exception.

He wasn't even sure what he had done wrong.

One person, however, told him frankly that he was too sensible to feel much love.

Thinking of that person, he was a quirky little boy he once liked, and happened to be a friend of him and Li Chengxiu. He took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone.

An extremely impatient voice came from the phone: "Who?"

"Xiaohui, it's me, Li Shuo."

"Hmm ..." The voice was awake for a few minutes. "Hey? Brother Li, you are so late ... so early, why are you calling? Why do you wake up two hours early and sleep in the morning?" A big yawn.

"Xiaohui, did Cheng Xiu look for you again?"

"I haven't recently. I called today and asked to find a relative."

"Which relative and where?"

Wen Xiaohui apparently realized that something was wrong and hurriedly said, "I didn't say, what's wrong?"

"He left, sent me a text message, and then shut down. No one can be found now."

"What!" Wen Xiaohui snorted, and said, "Maybe he really went to visit relatives. He is in a normal state today, maybe the phone is out of power?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple," Li Shuo said, "If Li Chengxiu contacts you again, you must tell me immediately, or if you think of any place he might go, tell me."

"I, I, I, I think now."

Li Shuo kept himself in the room like that, looking for people through all kinds of channels. He passed by in the afternoon, and the country was completely awake, and Li Chengxiu had no news.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, pulling Li Shuo's emotions back from the darkness, he said, "Come in."

The door opened, Zhao Jinxin walked in and said with a smile, "It's time to go and drink with me."

Li Shuo reluctantly said, "What mood do I have now ..." He said half of it, but changed his mind. Sometimes, the wine is really a good thing.

Zhao Jinxin saw his thoughts at a glance and blinked: "Follow me." 2k novel reading network
