304: Chapter 135 I Can’t Tell the Difference!
I Just Can’t Tell!
Arica, Saint Rodu, ten o’clock at night.
A heavy cargo truck stopped by the roadside; inside its cargo area, several people were chatting with Elder Li.
“Chan, thanks for your help.
I don’t know how to thank you, so I’ll take care of a problem for you.”
Daniel Washington said with a smile.
Take care of a problem?
Surprised not only was Cheng Daqi, but also the squirming sack.
Elder Li felt bitterness in his heart.
If there were bounds to the sea of suffering, Li Haiping felt as though he might have already swum several laps.
“You an, this person is a problem?” Cheng Daqi kicked the sack and asked Daniel.
Daniel Washington nodded, and the middle-aged black man squatted down and removed the sack from Elder Li’s body.
“Chan, I don’t care about your dealings with him—after all, it’s normal for a man to have a career.
Considering my age, I’ve seen more people, so I can discern lies and human nature,
Before you arrived, I asked him so questions.
He didn’t lie, but he’s cunning and he hates you.”
After speaking, the weather-beaten black man looked up at Cheng Daqi.
This was him waiting for Cheng Daqi to make a decision.
CEO Cheng would not decide hastily—dealing with a master like Daniel ant taking his every word doubly seriously.
The middle-aged black man’s words indeed had profound implications; he was actually telling Cheng Daqi not to pry into his affairs.
His willingness to help with the problem could also be seen as a gesture of goodwill.
However, this gesture of goodwill left Cheng Daqi sowhat chilled.
A gesture of goodwill—killing a person as a gesture of goodwill!
This black man, Sani’s father, was definitely not a simple character!
Elder Li watched the contemplative Cheng Daqi, sniveling and writhing, trying to plead, trying to explain.
But his mouth had been gagged by Daniel’s n, and he couldn’t speak.
“Mr.
Daniel, what exactly did he tell you?” Cheng Daqi’s question seed to toll the bell that would decide Elder Li’s fate.
“Mmm~mmm~mmm~”
Elder Li was truly desperate!
He had spoken the truth to Daniel Washington that afternoon; he really did think Cheng Daqi was too cruel.
Cheng Daqi had been too ruthless with him, not paying him for his work, and even cheated him out of a large sum on a rental property!
But just because he’s cruel, doesn’t an I don’t want to continue working with him!
I didn’t betray you, CEO Cheng!
What I said this afternoon was unimportant—although I was about to say sothing important, I held it back then!
Elder Li was truly distressed and overwheld with mixed emotions.
Cheng Daqi had made it very clear to him: As long as he did not leave Saint Rodu, he would be safe!
And what happened?
First, Gru ssed with him, and Gru’s people were cops.
Today, it was Daniel’s turn, and these people with Daniel were obviously gangsters of so sort.
Elder Li desperately wanted to ask CEO Cheng a question.
CEO Cheng, is this your definition of keeping safe as long as I don’t leave Saint Rodu?
I follow you and I haven’t seen a cent, and I’ve been beaten up twice in three days!!!
For Elder Li, his life had beco “Following CEO Cheng, getting beaten up twice in three days”!
How could Elder Li not feel grief and urgency?
“Chan, what he said isn’t important; what I want to say is,
Whenever you need, I can get rid of him for you at any ti.
You are a friend of Sani, and therefore, a friend of the Washington family!”
What does it an to be crafty and cunning?
Daniel Washington beca the epito of those words with his actions!
You ask what he said?
Go ahead and guess!
I know what you’ve been up to, don’t I?
Take a guess!
And how do I stand?
I’m on your side, and I can help you take care of your troubles!
Cheng Daqi sucked in a breath of cold air—it was the mark of a true master!
“Then just let him go.
If there’s a problem in the future, we’ll deal with it formally; I won’t bring any risks to you, Uncle Daniel.”
Lao Deng, that’s enough, I call the shots for my people, and don’t try to scare , I’m Sani’s friend!
CEO Cheng stepped forward and took the sock out of Elder Li’s mouth.
Disgusting, it was Kernor’s!
Disgustedly throwing it aside, Cheng Daqi helped Elder Li up from the ground.
“Chan, call on if you need anything.
And Danze, the man I’ve given you, what do you think?”
Although there was light in the cargo area, Daniel’s face absorbed it, and Cheng Daqi couldn’t make out Daniel’s features.
But Danze, the one Daniel had assigned to him, seed like a mixed-race, not too dark to absorb light.
“Uncle Washington, I’ll take my leave now, and thank you for today.”
CEO Cheng left a cryptic ssage and took Elder Li out of the cargo area.
The middle-aged black man savored it for a while and then smiled at Danze.
“What are you standing there for?
Follow them!”
He had great appreciation for Cheng Daqi, having seen an extraordinary spirit in him.
More importantly, the lad treated his daughter well.
“How long do I stay with him?” asked Danze.
“Stick with him from now on, Danze, you have a family, unlike us.
Go ho, Dan, go ho,” the middle-aged black man said with a smile, patting the black youth Danze on the shoulder.
“I…” Danny attempted to speak, but Elder Washington pushed him out of the car.
Kid, you’re still young, you still have the chance to turn back.
Go, go back to the right path!
Don’t end up like , harboring regrets that can never be nded.
—————–
Elder Li was supported by Cheng Daqi as he sat in the back seat of the black Tesla.
“CEO Cheng, I…”
Elder Li’s expression was numb as he tried to explain, but he felt that it wasn’t his place to do so.
He had truly done his best.
Isn’t everyone a novice when it cos to shady business for the first ti?
In his heart, Li Haiping believed that he had always perford well.
But he couldn’t understand why he was always so unlucky.
“Elder Li, there’s no need to speak.
I’ve tested you three tis, and your performance has been good each ti.
From now on, you’re my man!”
Cheng Daqi knew he needed to give Li Haiping so encouragent.
The day’s events might have indeed pushed Li Haiping beyond his limits, but they were unforeseen incidents.
Cheng Daqi couldn’t have predicted them; he could only make ands afterward.
“You’ve tested three tis?” Elder Li asked, finding it hard to believe.
“Yes.
The first ti was when renting a house, the second was the old factory, and the third ti was today.
Your performance wasn’t perfect, but it was still not bad.”
CEO Cheng had concluded that Elder Li likely hadn’t revealed any sensitive information today.
If Elder Li had truly said anything, Daniel Washington would have had no reason to play any real or fake tricks just now.
“Today’s incident, was it you…” Elder Li still found it implausible.
“Of course.
That man is my uncle, and he can detect lies.
He said you didn’t lie, and that’s enough.
As for how you see …”
Having said that, Cheng Daqi turned his head, glanced at Li Haiping with a smile, and continued.
“How you see doesn’t matter.
Just rember, don’t even think about jumping ship!”
Elder Li heard Cheng Daqi’s words clearly, but he couldn’t distinguish their true aning.
The first ti he was tested, he could discern the difference, but after getting taken away by the police that day, the events were clearly not just a simple test!
And today, while being interrogated by Daniel Washington, the looks and attitudes of those n didn’t seem like a test—they were too aggressive, not sothing you can fake.
A group of fierce n asking bizarre questions, instead of inquiring about the details of my cooperation with you.
Now you tell that these n are your uncle’s.
CEO Cheng, I can’t distinguish!
Are you really just testing , or was it a near miss from getting played?!
In fact, Elder Li could distinguish very well; he at least understood the fact that he ‘couldn’t distinguish.’
However, seeing Danny aboard the car, he utterly extinguished the desire to probe whether Cheng Daqi was bluffing or truly testing him.
“CEO Cheng, I will never do anything that isn’t in your best interest,” Li Haiping resignedly replied.
The appearance of Danny made him realize that he truly couldn’t get off now.
This black man was the one who had pulled him into the ‘big house,’ the one whom Cheng Daqi’s so-called ‘Uncle Washington’ had really offered to Cheng Daqi for his use.
CEO Cheng, with a police chief backing you at the station and a pure black team supporting you in the underworld,
I, Elder Li, have been trained by you three tis.
Please, don’t test anymore!
To earn so money, why must it be so hard!
—————–
The tis have changed now; Eris cannot claim to be dominant anymore.
In the current version, he has beco soone who can be replaced at any mont.
Without him, Cheng Daqi can find Gru to be the middleman for the identity business.
The stakes involved in the ‘extinction strategy’ are too high and powerful.
Eris’s experience and strength are simply not up to par.
Yet often, people are blinded by greed, forgetting their own capabilities and potential risks.
Facing that great opportunity to change one’s fate, the once-in-a-lifeti chance that Eris desperately sought, he lost his composure and prudence.
That’s why Cheng Daqi had the occasion to scold him like a dog at Gru’s banquet.
And now, CEO Cheng had just received new information about the Dracula Family from the black-haired rich widow.
Things were changing!
He had so expectations for the collaboration with the Dracula Family, but just so.
The Dracula case is extrely complex, involving too many top-tier forces, and the Dracula family itself is no simple matter.
Even if Elder Dracula made a mistake, it doesn’t change the fact that he’s a ruthless capitalist.
Dealing with such a family warrants the utmost caution.
Before clearly understanding the situation, Cheng Daqi won’t enter the fray lightly!
“Chan, it’s been a long ti since you’ve visited,” the giant Riel opened the door.
The two-ter-tall man smiled at Cheng Daqi, then stepped aside to let him into the room.
“How much do you make a month?
Are you interested in switching jobs?”
Since Eris had not yet appeared, Cheng Daqi seized the opportunity to approach the giant Riel with a job offer.
Daniel Washington’s sudden appearance had reminded him that it was ti to pay attention to his own security.
Who doesn’t like a two-ter-tall strongman?
Having such a fellow by your side spares you from excess talk.
His re presence would be effective.
As CEO Cheng’s status rises ever higher, the people he deals with are all no simple characters; he needs a few reliable bodyguards.
The people recomnded by Daniel ultimately aren’t entirely trustworthy; he needs to hire his own.
“I make four thousand dollars a month, but I like this job, sorry,” Riel said, scratching his head bashfully, still sentintal.
Before Cheng Daqi could say anything more, the agent from the West Coast had co out, and he had to temporarily drop the idea of poaching.
“Chan, you said you have good news, what is it?”
Eris erged from the room and sat across from Cheng Daqi.
