6: Is the ramen restaurant the code name of some organization?
“What are you being polite about? I shouldn’t be rude for your sake?” Gu Ruibo replied to Li Ruotai.
“No… That’s… just be polite… don’t mess with him…” Li Ruotai said quickly, but his words were very strange.
Gu Ruibo was stunned by what Li Ruotai said. He just subconsciously thought that Li Ruotai meant “give me some face.” After all, he was Li Ruobing’s boyfriend, and Li Ruotai also called him brother-in-law. Li Ruotai and Gu Ruibo were good brothers, so it was normal for them to be polite and give each other some face.
However, Gu Ruibo felt that something was wrong.
Li Ruotai’s tone and attitude were wrong.
“A’tai…” Gu Ruibo spoke carefully, then turned and left the office. The bodyguard followed him and closed the office door. He said into the phone, “What? Your… brother-in-law… Why do I feel that you are a bit afraid of him…”
The two of them were very familiar. Just from the tone of Li Ruotai’s words, Gu Ruibo clearly felt that something was wrong.
“I’m afraid… It’s not that I’m afraid. It’s because of my sister’s relationship.” Li Ruotai added and then said, “Just be polite, Brother Xiaogu… don’t blame me for not reminding you. You…”
“A’tai, what’s going on?” Gu Ruibo asked, “Don’t hide from me. I’m not a fool. I can tell that your brother-in-law… Is something wrong with him?” Gu Ruibo had heard of Wu Chen
Before.
There were rumors in the circle of children of the aristocratic family, and some were told by Li Ruotai himself.
Although Li Ruotai had not been to Shanghai recently, the two of them frequently talked on the phone because of business.
But before Li Ruotai mentioned Wu Chen to Gu Ruibo, he just said that this time his sister came for real and was her real boyfriend.
He also said that his brother-in-law was quite capable.
The word “capable” came from Li Ruotai, and the words spoken by a person of this status carry a lot of weight.
And that’s where Gu Ruibo’s understanding of Wu Chen ended.
Now, Gu Ruibo clearly felt that something was wrong.
“Brother Xiaogu… um…” Li Ruotai said.
He was silent for a moment, and then said, “Is there anyone near you?”
Gu Ruibo understood what Li Ruotai meant and said, “Wait a moment.”
He then waved to the people near the corridor door.
Not only Gu Ruibo’s bodyguards were there, but a group of Mao Rusong’s men as well.
After seeing Gu Ruibo’s wave, they all understood and walked towards the other side of the corridor.
They all stayed away.
“There’s no one else. Talk,” Gu Ruibo said to the phone again, frowning slightly, “Why are you afraid of being known?”
“Actually…” Li Ruotai pondered again. He was thinking about what could reveal to Gu Ruibo. “What? Why are you hesitating…” Gu Ruibo urged. The two had a good relationship and spoke casually.
“You… know about me?” Li Ruotai said.
“I know… I’ll handle it for you. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely take care of it for you.” Gu Ruibo said.
What he was talking about was what was going to happen to Li Ruotai. The mastermind behind it was the Wei family. Li Ruotai had already arranged this matter, just short of setting the Crown Entertainment Club on fire.
Regarding this matter, in all aspects, Li Ruotai also used his own connections to deal with some “small problems” that he could solve. The big problems would be solved by the Li family later.
Li Ruotai had been on the phone frequently with Gu Ruibo recently. He asked Gu Ruibo to help him solve “small problems”.
And so, Gu Ruibo knew it very clearly.
“What? Does this matter have anything to do with your brother-in-law?” Gu Ruibo asked again.
“…He told me everything,” Li Ruotai said.
“Huh?” Gu Ruibo didn’t understand, “He told you everything?”
“Everything, everything. About what’s going on around me… Everything!” Li Ruotai said.
Gu Ruibo was silent for a moment.
He was stunned at first, then confused, and then asked, “Everything? Then… how did he know? Do you know his background?”
“His family owns a ramen restaurant,” Li Ruotai said.
“Ramen shop…is it the code name of some kind of organization?”
“No, literally, a ramen shop opened in a small county, for ordinary families.”
“You… Do you believe it?”
“Of course I don’t believe it. My dad doesn’t believe it either, but he can’t find anything. His family background is really like that. If there are other backgrounds, then our Li family can’t find it…”
Gu Ruibo was silent again. He had to slow down. The amount of information was a bit big.
“He also talked to my dad. Because of my sister’s matter, they talked alone…” Li Ruotai added.
“Then what?” Gu Ruibo asked immediately.
“Then… my dad seemed to have reached an agreement with him. I don’t know. My dad didn’t even tell me or my sister… but I felt that because of him, my dad’s attitude towards the Ding family was no longer right… I had a phone call with my dad this morning. My dad didn’t tell me everything. He just wanted me to listen to my brother-in-law. There are some things that I don’t feel comfortable telling you. It involves my sister, with Ding Ruilong. What happened in Donghai recently is quite complicated…”
It was difficult for Li Ruotai to tell all his feelings to Gu Ruibo.
But Gu Ruibo still understood a lot.
Did this man named Wu Chen have a secret conversation with Li Maoren? He doesn’t want his children to know the content of the conversation?
It’s hard for Gu Ruibo to imagine what exactly happened.
But the meaning behind Li Ruotai’s words was very revealing. The tone and attitude when he said this could make Gu Ruibo feel that he was really a little afraid of his brother-in-law… Li Ruotai was afraid of someone younger than him.
Li Ruotai will be afraid of a young man who is four years younger than him with no background?
As if he was from an ordinary family.
As if his family runs a ramen restaurant!
“Brother Xiaogu, do you believe that someone can predict the future?” Li Ruotai suddenly asked Gu Ruibo.
“Huh? What?” Gu Ruibo didn’t seem to hear clearly and reacted in a wrong tone, “You said your brother-in-law…”
“It’s just… I can’t tell you clearly. Anyway…Oh! Just don’t mess with him. Be polite, you will know after you have been in contact with him for a long time… What you told me before, I told him it’s a misunderstanding… Don’t worry, it’s okay…”
Gu Ruibo was frightened by Li Ruotai.
What he said before was quite bluffing, but in the end, it became somewhat metaphysical.
“You guys talk about it, it’s okay. Believe me, nothing will happen, unless you take the initiative to offend him… Just tell me if you have any situation…” Li Ruotai said, with the intention of putting down the phone.
“Wait a minute A’tai.” Gu Ruibo quickly called, “I have another question.”
“What?” Li Ruotai asked.
“Just… has your brother-in-law trained? When I got the news, he said his marksmanship was terrifying…” Gu Ruibo asked.
This time it was Li Ruotai’s turn to be silent for a moment, and then he said, “Do you know Zhou Huan, the one next to my sister?”
“Yes.” Gu Ruibo replied.
Any big family will have particularly powerful bodyguards, all of whom were known for their comprehensive abilities and excellent fighting skills. They were basically top elites who have retired from the ace special forces.
There were several members within the Li family, and one of them was next to Li Ruobing, Zhou Huan.
“According to what Zhou Huan said, my brother-in-law is not a human being. I asked Zhou Huan how many people it would take to win against him, but he didn’t even dare to say… He didn’t dare to guarantee… Do you understand?” Li Ruotai said.
“I do… I understand.” Gu Ruibo concealed his surprise well and his tone was normal.
“That’s it, you guys can talk.”
“Okay.”
They hung up the phone.
Gu Ruibo calmed down with a very strange expression on his face.
He took a deep breath and raised his hand to wipe his forehead.
He turned around and motioned to the bodyguards, but he signaled that they did not need to follow.
Then, Gu Ruibo opened the door and entered the office alone.
“Hahahaha, Mr. Wu, hahahaha, I have known you for a long time. A’tai have mentioned you to me, hahahahaha…”
Gu Ruibo laughed as soon as he entered the door. After taking a few steps forward, he reached out to shake hands with Wu Chen.
Mao Rusong looked confused.
What the hell is going on?! You’re not even that enthusiastic about your biological father, right?
