Fall in love with your enemy

Following the last time, my home and four other ships including the Somorro disappeared. In the following days, many people were in a state of anxiety and confusion. Then four more ships were declared missing.

Although my family's shipping is only for self-sufficiency, those ships were bought at great prices and entrusted to Li Yi's shipping company for operation. If they are found to be in distress, the insurance company will indeed compensate a lot, but it will not be enough to offset the losses. The cost of five to seven hundred million for each ship is not a small matter, and the most important thing is that there are at least twenty crew members on each ship. How can we explain to the outside world that one hundred and sixty people are missing in the vast ocean?

What's more, it is obviously a premeditated incident and not a shipwreck. I am afraid that there are really hidden enemies coming for my family. In addition, too many innocent lives are involved, which has attracted the attention of Chengcheng and my second uncle.

Chengcheng came back quickly after he recovered from his injury. Coincidentally, Li Yiyi sent a message saying that the crew had been contacted and the Gao family's ship was nearby. After receiving the distress signal, they immediately rushed over to rescue the people. Now they were all on the coast. Chengcheng and I contacted my second uncle and went down the mountain together. When we arrived at the port, we heard the crying of the crew and their families not far away, and we felt relieved. We didn't rush over. I patted my chest before planning to ask first. Li Yiyi was busy at the scene and burst into tears when he saw me rushing over!

Li Yiyi: "They are so heartless! They are all crazy... They encountered pirates... All the ships were blown up!"

Me: "Ah? Wait, what did you say? It exploded! What about the casualties?"

Li Yiyi: "No casualties! As soon as everyone came back, they blew up the ship... They killed them. Do they know how much compensation I have to pay? Eight ships, eight ships at once..."

I was so confused! Who was it? Pirates? Bombing the ship? With the anti-theft measures on my ship, it was basically impossible for it to be robbed. But a group of pirates with such powerful firepower came and let everyone return safely, but blew up the ship? ? ?

But out of humanitarianism, I still chose to comfort Li Yiyi first: "Oh, don't worry about this... most of the money is paid by insurance."

Suddenly, a handsome young man behind me raised his hand weakly: "Mr. Fu, I sell insurance..."

"Ah?" I was stunned.

Li Yiyi raised her head with tears streaming down her face. "This is my younger brother, Li You. I suggested that he sell insurance right after he graduated. All his clients are my family's partners. Woo woo woo woo..."

The girl next to Li You also lowered her head when she saw this, wondering whether she should feel guilty for a moment, and then whispered, "And me, Mr. Fu, my name is Li Shuangshuang, I sell insurance with my brother, and we just started, and the money is basically paid by my sister, we have no money..."

"Oh my, why are our lives so miserable! What sin have I committed? I haven't earned much yet and a pirate destroyed it all! I only have a few ships in total and they built eight for me at once...?" Li Yiyi howled and ran to hug her sister-in-law.

I was still in shock for a long time before I realized how outrageous this was. In other words, with a short time difference, eight groups of pirates came from eight different directions and blew up my ship in such a large sea area? And they were so "kind" that they didn't hurt anyone and even sent a lifeboat. They waited until my crew members walked a little further away before blowing up the ship within their sight and asked them to come back and tell me the news? ? !

I didn't know how to comfort Li Yiyi. This was at least 4 billion in compensation... But if I didn't leave now, what if she bargained with me later? I would be the one who would lose the most after the bargaining! So I smiled dryly, said goodbye quickly, and ran away. If she insisted on talking to me, I could only say that her family name was quite unique. I went to the makeshift medical room at the port, and the people outside made way.

More than a hundred people were all sent back, not one was missing. They survived the pirates and didn't even have a scratch. Some were still crying and some were hugging their family members and crying. I asked a few of them, and it was basically the situation I had just imagined. It was outrageous, it was so outrageous that I wanted to curse at the bully.

Cheng Cheng saw me not far away and didn't bother to comfort the crew. He quickly followed me all the way until he caught up with me in a secluded place. I wanted to endure it, but then I thought, he is my brother anyway, why should I pretend in front of him? I immediately burst out a piece of traditional Chinese quintessence:

"x&%￥# I'm so#$^& convinced! I just&%￥& don't understand! If you say they want money, then why did they blow up the ship? Should I ^&%$# praise them for being polite? They sent all the people back to me? That's especially#$^& thanks to the good quality of our lifeboats, and they are all fully enclosed so they don't get cold or exposed to the sun! Otherwise, everyone would have died while waiting for rescue at sea! What do you think ^&%$# they were thinking! And! Where did such powerful pirates come from! Do you want me to buy weapons and destroy their ancestors' graves right away!"

Cheng Cheng stared at me without blinking, gradually becoming shocked and incredulous, as if he couldn't believe that such rude words would come out of my mouth. In fact, I didn't believe it either, but popularity to a certain extent will indeed stimulate one's potential. I was also in a difficult situation. I regretted it after I finished scolding him. I looked at him innocently for a long time before I recovered, and I couldn't help but let go of my wrist.

"Um... Sister, don't be too angry. Money is just material possessions. At least everyone is fine. They just have some psychological problems after drifting for a few days. I ordered people to pay them according to the highest standard and let them go back to rest. However, there are many elderly people here who originally wanted to retire. After what happened, they probably don't want to get on the boat anymore. So if we want to show the outside world that our family is harmonious and friendly, we can help Second Uncle recruit new people and appease the family members. That's enough. There's not much for us to do."

"Nothing?" I shook my head sadly and pounded my chest. "The Somoro is my ship! I just bought it! I just spent hundreds of millions on it, just finished maintenance, and haven't made any money yet when it was blown up by a bunch of psychopaths. You say it's okay! Do you know how poor I am now? Money and material possessions, you buy a ship to compensate me! Do you know that our family insurance is bought from Li Yi's family? I have to go to Linjiang to work for Gao Xingci soon. The only person I can cooperate with now is Li Yiyi. I can't offend her. I have to give her some discount! After the discount, I don't have to pay for my ship! I'm losing a lot!"

Cheng Cheng had rarely seen me throwing tantrums in her two lives. This time, she gasped and lowered her head, a little overwhelmed. She scratched her hands for a long time and said, "Then... I don't know. I clearly remember that the Somoro belongs to the second room..."

"I just bought it from my brother! I'm in need of a boat! To clean up the mess you left me two months ago!" I was so disappointed... Oh, I'm not tall enough, so I moved a small stool from the side and stood on it. Then I poked Chengcheng's temple with disappointment. He tilted his head and looked so pitiful that I wanted to laugh. I coughed but held back: "I'm so angry, I saw that this man came for the second house, but why didn't he ask around! He actually blamed my boat for the wrong reason!"

Cheng Cheng still lowered his head, feeling a little bit aggrieved and unwilling: "I'll buy you a new one..."

I waved my hand and said, "Forget it. Anyway, considering the position I'm about to take, I think it would be better to grab it directly from Gao Xingci."

Chengcheng pursed his lips and said nothing. He raised his eyes quietly and looked at me with a strange expression. I retorted and asked him what was wrong in a crazy and cool manner. Chengcheng pointed behind me. I turned around and saw Gao Xinci standing there with his arms crossed, looking at me with scrutiny.

"Aren't you recuperating? I see you're in good spirits." Xiao Gao raised his eyebrows in a serious tone, "Just to remind you, your post is not about to begin, but right now, right now, right now! Do you know that everyone is here? Only your family is special, no one is here, I'm under pressure to give you the inside scoop, and you're bullying me like this, right? You'll lose your full attendance and bonus this month."

Me: What? Am I not a member of the board of directors? Do I not earn money from shares? Where does the perfect attendance and bonus come from?

Xiao Gao seemed to see my doubts, glanced at me and said provocatively, "Don't you always say that you work for me? Then I have to pay you. I have specially arranged a position for you as a director, and I will pay you in the middle of each month."

Me: "Ah? What department? How much is the salary?"

Student Xiao Gao said calmly, "Monthly salary is 3,000, bonus is 250, full attendance is 250, management, back-office, and logistics."

"I'm a major shareholder with 20% of the shares and a top student who graduated from Lin University with business administration, and you want me to be in charge of logistics! And the monthly salary is 3,500 yuan. You, Zhou Baopi, are at least the director and you only give me this little. The conscience of capitalism is extremely bad!" I was so excited that I twisted off the small stool and almost hit my head in the sea. Fortunately, Chengcheng grabbed me in time.

But he leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Sister, you haven't graduated yet."

"Shut up! I want you to speak!" I retorted in a low voice, turning back and putting my hands on my hips to fight against Xiao Gao's "boss aura".

Yes, I admit that the scene a few days ago was very offensive to him, but I also paid the price! Wasn't this another time he played a trick on me? Not only that, he might take advantage of me in the future and find excuses to bully me all the time. He has been stubborn since I didn't work. How can I live in the future? He is just like a lamb stuck on the grill!

I was sure that I had to be tough tonight, otherwise Xiao Gao would be so angry that he would go crazy. But this time he didn't fall for it. I waved my hand casually, and Zuo Qiao and Zhu Wenqing jumped out from nowhere and walked straight towards me. No matter how I tried to stop them, it was useless. They just carried me one on each side and walked away. I don't care about my face!

"Hey! What do you mean? Let go of me, let go!" I ran out of patience and kicked around with my feet, but unfortunately they dodged quickly and I didn't hit any of them! I couldn't even reach the floor, and I was afraid that the noise would be too loud and more people would come out to laugh at me, so I had to shamelessly grasp the last straw: "Chengcheng! Cheng! Your sister is about to be kidnapped and you're just watching like this!"

Cheng Cheng stood there motionless, with a very nonchalant expression: "He is destroying his own future, why should I stop him? I will save you when you wake up completely."

"What?!" I said in disbelief, and Xiao Gao's expression became even more disdainful.

"Your sister just falls for this. Do you understand?"

"Watt? I won't eat it!"

While we were talking, Zuo Qiao and Zhu Wenqing had already brought me to Gao Xinci. They became even more arrogant and carried me on their shoulders. They even slapped my butt with their hands! When I struggled, they threatened to throw me into the sea.

Student Xiao Gao: "Be honest and come back to work with me, or your salary will be deducted. You should work for a fee."

Me: "What? How dare you! Are you the emperor and I am the emperor?"

Xiao Gao: "You are the emperor and I am the emperor emeritus. Be good and call me daddy."

"Get lost!" I sang for a long time, but was eventually put on a bus. When I was on the plane, the flight attendant asked me if I was kidnapped and whether I should call the police. I thought about it and decided not to. If I really called the government officials, Gao Xinci's acting addiction would be even more excessive. In the end, I would have to trouble them to run around. Wouldn't I be the one to apologize in the end? I would never ask for trouble!

It was already early morning when I arrived at Linjiang. The lights in the ship building were turned off. Xiao Gao kindly told me that I could go to his house to work. I thought this was bad? He asked me to go to his house to help with logistics and get familiar with the working environment? If this got out, I would be laughed at! Unexpectedly, Gao Xinci shook his head mysteriously and said noono, he had a more important task for me, and then took me to the bedroom. I hadn't asked him for anything yet, but he took advantage of me and gave me a warning.

Well, I don’t know what benefits I can get tomorrow from making the bed, folding the quilt, serving tea and water, and value-added services. Will there be any surprise gifts? No! None! I only got a three-day trip to the hospital.

I said I wasn't fully recovered! I got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and found that I was bloated like a purple eggplant. I woke Gao Xinci up and scared him. He rushed me to the hospital for an IV. When I woke up, he even gave me a banana with a playful smile. I was so weak, what I needed was a banana? Why didn't he give me a pig's trotter quickly?

I lifted a corner of the quilt and kicked him. Aunt Wen Su was still watching our farce helplessly. She changed to a big bottle of medicine and gave it to me, warning me not to act silly for at least a week. Also, Gao Xinci really had a filter in his eyes. I had so many scars from acne on my body that even Aunt Wen Su, as a mother, found it scary to look at them. How could Gao Xinci have the heart to do that to me!

I sneered and looked at Gao Xinci, chewing a banana and tapping his arm: "Did you hear me? I'm going to take a sick leave, and I won't go to work at your house, you evil capitalist!"

"Okay, I don't know that. I saw you shouting at the port with full of energy." Gao Xinci patted my head lightly, feeling aggrieved.

I rolled my eyes as usual: "Do you know how many small targets I have lost? If it were you, wouldn't you be anxious? It's not just the ship, my ship is carrying a lot of cargo, and there are also ore!"

"Then I'll make it up to you. You can deduct the amount from my future living expenses." Gao Xinci didn't care. He even thought I was "making a fuss over nothing" and felt even more wronged.

I think so too. In his eyes, these amounts are not even enough to negotiate a small business. I don’t blame him for not having seen small amounts of money. I am quite happy about this because Cheng Cheng just said he would buy me a new boat, and he also said he would make up for my shortfall. My crew members were fine, so I didn’t lose anything. It’s great! I even asked Gao Xinci for an extra sum and didn’t bother to calculate it…

Thinking of this, I turned my head and smiled quietly, but at this moment I saw Lao Hou greeting someone at the door. No matter how I looked at the direction he was walking, it seemed like he was coming towards me. I quickly covered my face with the quilt, but the next second I was dragged out by Gao Xinci, who didn't understand what was going on.

"Shishi, what are you doing? Even if you are angry, you can't suffocate yourself with the quilt."

I made all kinds of gestures and eye contact, but Gao Xinci didn't understand a single one.

"What do you mean? What are you doing? Zuo Qiao has gone to order something delicious, so shouldn't I accompany you? What for? There's no one at the door? Only Uncle Hou?"

I was speechless, and suddenly lost all my strength and means, until Lao Hou poked his head beside the bed and laughed at me: "Hey, big girl, you've rested in just a few days? How do you feel?"
