Chapter 616: Priceless Advice
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xue Shanhui knew this point very well.
However, it was also very important to find out if his brother was really still alive.
Xue Shanhui washed his feet while thinking about something.
He was looking forward to it now. He hoped that Ma San would really appear in eight days.
Because this was the only way to prove that Wu Qinghe’s abilities were real.
If Wu Qinghe’s ability was real, the chances of him asking Wu Qinghe for help to find his brother were even higher.
There was nothing difficult to achieve in the world, as long as one was determined enough.
Xue Shanhui didn’t plan to find his brother in order to reunite with his family. He only hoped to know that his brother was safe and sound.
In the other room, Li Liming paced back and forth in his room many times while looking frustrated.
Jiao Hang, who was lying down and resting, was annoyed by Li Liming’s movements, so he quickly stopped him. “Li Liming, what are you doing? Are you a cat on a hot tin roof? You keep on wandering around this room. Don’t you feel tired? I feel tired for you! Tell me, what made you so anxious?!”
When Li Liming heard Jiao Hang’s words, he had a desire to confide in him.
“Tell me, why didn’t Mr. Luo agree to my request today?! I’m really good at earning money. I’m really good at doing business! As long as I help Mr. Luo manage his business, I guarantee that his wallet will be fully packed in the future!”
When Jiao Hang heard Li Liming’s words, he knew that he was still troubled by the incident during the day.
Jiao Hang stopped smiling and became serious.
“Li Liming, you’re not a foolish person. Why did you become so anxious today? You should know that we just came to seek refuge with Mr. Luo. Mr. Luo is still investigating us. Tell me, if someone suddenly comes to you when you’re doing business and asks you to hand over the business to him, and the other party swears that he will definitely earn a lot of money for you, will you believe him?”
When Li Liming heard Jiao Hang’s words, he replied, “Of course I won’t believe him! I don’t even know him, so I’d be stupid to hand over my business if someone said that! I don’t want to be treated as a sucker!”
Jiao Hang asked, “If you think so, why do you still insist that Mr. Luo agree to it now?”
Li Liming shriveled up like a deflated ball and fell onto his bed dejectedly with a long sigh.
“I’m just anxious. We can cook grilled fish! You’ve tasted that grilled fish before. We’ll definitely earn a lot of money!”
Jiao Hang reminded, “You know, but you think others don’t know? But who besides you asked? Besides, didn’t you notice? Our consort is extraordinary! Between you and the consort, who does Mr. Luo trust more?”
With Jiao Hang’s reminder, Li Liming recalled everything about the consort.
At this moment, Li Liming realized how powerful Li Xiaoran was.
“Hey! Jiao Hang, I wouldn’t have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it! It turns out that the consort is also a very good businesswoman!”
“Heh, that’s all you see? Not only is the consort a money-making expert, but she’s also a smart and thoughtful woman who won Mr. Luo’s respect and love. Didn’t you find out anything about Mr. Luo before you joined him?” Jiao Hang didn’t know what to say about Li Liming.
Li Liming said disapprovingly, “1 asked around! After I asked around, I came to seek refuge with Mr. Luo! If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t have come! Besides, what’s so special about the consort?! The most special thing about her is that she was lucky enough to marry Mr. Luo!”
Jiao Hang laughed when he heard Li Liming’s words.
“You’re still taking things for granted and not paying enough attention. Let me ask you, if you were Mr. Luo, would you still want a countryside girl after you recovered your status? It’s very easy for Mr. Luo to get rid of a countryside girl. Even if it’s not easy, Mr. Luo can abandon the consort in the capital and let her fend for herself!”
When Li Liming heard Jiao Hang’s words, he couldn’t help but defend himself. “Mr. Luo has feelings for the consort, so he naturally can’t bear to abandon her!”
When Jiao Hang heard Li Liming’s words, he sneered. “How superficial!”
“Do you think with Mr. Luo’s life experience, he’s the kind of person who falls in love so easily? If the consort doesn’t have any outstanding qualities, will Mr. Luo treat her sincerely? Can’t you tell that Mr. Luo loves the consort? He dotes on her. I’ve asked around previously. Mr. Luo rejected many n.o.ble girls in the capital for the consort’s sake. He even said that he would only be with her for the rest of his life.”
With that, Jiao Hang thought of something and simply said everything he wanted to say.
“The public only thinks that the consort was lucky enough to receive the protection of the consort. She was just a peasant, but she suddenly became the consort. But from the respect the people around Mr. Luo have for the consort, it’s obvious that they respect her from the bottom of their hearts. If a woman isn’t capable, how can she win a man’s heart and make the people around her man respect her? Don’t tell me that it’s because the consort is sincere. Does Mr. Luo lack such sincerity? Many n.o.ble girls in the capital have such sincerity, but why did he choose the consort?”
“Li Liming, although you’re very good at business, you don’t understand the ways of the world or human nature, so you’re very vulnerable. If I were Mr. Luo, I wouldn’t dare to hand over my business to you so easily. Doing business is like going to the battlefield. Sometimes, a failure is fatal. You’re too gullible and easy to scheme against! If you don’t change, Mr. Luo will never put you in an important position!”
Jiao Hang’s words were harsh, but they came from the bottom of his heart. He sincerely hoped that Li Liming would improve in the future.
Li Liming wasn’t ignorant. He knew himself well.
Although he had talent in business, he was indeed lacking in terms of social skills. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been schemed against by his brothers and eventually expelled from the family.
At this moment, Li Liming didn’t say anything. He was thinking about something else.
Just as Jiao Hang thought that Li Liming wouldn’t say anything else, he suddenly heard Li Liming’s voice.
“You’re right.. If I were more schooled in the ways of the world, I wouldn’t have ended up in this state!”
