1099: 760 – A major sucker 2 1099: 760 – A major sucker 2 “Tell , who did this?”
“This question, Mr.
Luo should be clear himself.”
“How would I know?”
Luo Han stared at him coldly.
Fernando smiled without saying a word.
Luo Han’s brain was racing.
Although this scene was beyond his expectations, to be precise, he indeed understood the temperant of this mafia senior leader.
Definitely more credible than the average entrepreneur.
The other party should have no need to lie to him.
Suddenly.
A bolt of lightning flashed in Luo Han’s mind.
A possibility erged in his brain!
“That female lawyer?”
He couldn’t believe it.
“The first ti Luo Long ca to , he asked for help, saying it was Mr.
Luo’s command.
Considering our relationship, I agreed without any hesitation.
But when Luo Long ca to the second ti, he brought a group of people, a group of terrifying ard n.
They trampled my plantation, drove into my winery, even blew up my plane, turning this place into what you see now.”
Fernando’s tone was undulating, as if delivering a speech.
Luo Han’s gaze shifted drastically.
This is Sicily.
The stronghold of the mafia, they had the audacity to do this?
“Impossible!”
Luo Han said instinctively.
“Mr.
Luo, I have done my best.”
A hint of regret appeared on Fernando’s face.
This was not pretense.
Objectively speaking, he really had exhausted all ans; his winery was breached, he did not forget to help Luo Long escape, got implicated and imprisoned, yet he did not hold a grudge, and still wanted to help him after being released.
Ordinary friends probably couldn’t do this.
“Really because of that female lawyer?!”
Luo Han still couldn’t accept it.
Instructed by Young Master Fang, he realized this task was no small matter, so he entrusted it to his own younger brother and even gave a special admonition before departure.
But, this is in Sicily, thousands of miles away!
“Before choosing an opponent, didn’t Mr.
Luo conduct necessary background check?”
Fernando did not respond directly, but a aningful phrase had already given Luo Han an answer.
Luo Han, who had experienced ups and downs in life, beca sowhat distracted.
“Mr.
Fernando, rest assured, I will give you an explanation for this matter!”
Then.
He shifted the topic.
If the facts were indeed such, he really couldn’t bla anyone.
Fernando remained silent.
“Mr.
Fernando, I will take my brother back first.”
Fernando was still silent.
Luo Han, feeling heavy-hearted, said firmly: “Mr.
Fernando, we are friends!
They destroyed your winery, we should stand together even more!”
“Sorry.”
Fernando only returned two words, but they made Luo Han’s sinking heart accelerate suddenly, plunging to the bottom.
What kind of force could make the mafia suffer such a big loss at their own stronghold and still choose to swallow their pride?!
Of course.
This question doesn’t seem important right now.
Luo Han realized his situation was quite grim.
Clearly.
This was a conspiracy targeting him.
Imprisoning Luo Long, or more harshly said, Luo Long was rely surviving at the mont only to lure him out of the country!
Luo Han suddenly awoke to the reality, but clearly, it was too late.
Alone and powerless, he didn’t even have the chance to fight back to the death.
His only two subordinates were probably already controlled.
“What conditions did they offer you?”
Luo Han didn’t just give up, nor did he play the emotional card, but just this resolve was worth learning from countless people.
“Mr.
Luo, the only one who can save you and your brother is yourself.”
Fernando did not give him any room for negotiation, perfectly blocking the light coming down from the steps.

“I got it.”
Qin Island.
Under the apartnt of Xue Family.
On the swing, Jiang Chen held a mobile phone, his expression calm.
This New Year, he finally realized belatedly how to play the role of a qualified boyfriend, spending a joyful New Year with Li Shuru and her daughter, and visiting all the relatives house by house.
In front of all the relatives, his status as the future son-in-law was nearly set in stone.
“Really a busy man, so many calls even during the New Year.”
Before I knew it, the swing had co to a stop.
Jiang Chen put his phone in his pocket and chuckled, “It’s only during the New Year that I am this busy.
Look at these days, did we even get a rest?”
“If you don’t want to go, just tell .
No one would force you,” said Li Shuru as she sat on the swing.
Jiang Chen, of course, wasn’t foolish, and smiled, “Why would that be?
I haven’t had such a lively New Year in a long ti.”
Li Shuru tilted her head, “Honest truth?”
Jiang Chen didn’t hesitate to nod, his face bright and open, “Of course.”
“Then co every year from now on.”
Li Shuru responded with a smile that was not quite a smile.
Jiang Chen was montarily stunned, then he also laughed, “I would love to, but what about Aunt Xue?
She might welco now, but if I co too often, she will surely start to mind.”
Saying that, he gently pressed his girlfriend’s soft and straight back, “Hold tight.”
The swing began to sway again.
At the start of the New Year.
Every household pasted couplets, and the property managent in the neighborhood also thoughtfully hung up lanterns.
The atmosphere was beautifully harmonious.
“Excuse , can you tell how to get to Building 7, Unit 1?”
A delivery person ca jogging over.
Jiang Chen naturally had no idea.
“Turn right over there.”
Li Shuru tiptoed, stopped the swing, and pointed in a direction.
“Thank you.”
The delivery person quickly turned and jogged off to deliver the order.
Jiang Chen watched his brand-new uniform.
“What are you looking at?”
“Nothing much, just suddenly rembered the tis when I used to work part-ti.”
Li Shuru, holding the rope, sat on the swing and asked with interest, “Back then, how much did you earn in a day?”
Jiang Chen, unembarrassed and straightforward, replied, “Around a hundred or so.”
“Did you ever deliver food?”
Li Shuru continued to inquire, clearly interested.
“No, I didn’t.
For part-ti jobs, you had to buy an electric scooter, which I didn’t think was worthwhile.”
Although Li Shuru largely knew about his previous life, hearing it now still amused her slightly.
She sighed softly.
“What’s the matter?
Laughing at , aren’t you?”
Jiang Chen feigned a stern face.
“No.
I just think you were maybe born a few years too early.”
“What do you an?”
“There’s a new delivery platform that has just been launched.
The treatnt is very good, they provide electric scooters for free, and even offer insurance.
That delivery guy just now is from that new platform.”
“How do you know?”
“I rember you used to log onto Starry Sky quite often,” Li Shuru ntioned.
Jiang Chen gave a wry smile.
Indeed.
His Starry Sky ID was still Solitary Cold Shadow.
“This new delivery platform is now very popular.
Many riders have switched over.
Even if not a delivery rider, people are praising this new platform a lot, like the Kangaroo Group’s market value has already fallen by nearly a third.”
“One-third?”
Jiang Chen showed surprise, “Is it that exaggerated?”
“Exaggerated?
I think it won’t be long before, maybe after the New Year, Kangaroo’s market value might just be half of what it used to be.
After all, this kind of company doesn’t rely on cutting-edge technology.
Their stocks are overvalued.
It’s normal for them to plumt significantly when a competitor appears.”
Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully.
“Like my mom, she never orders takeout, but now she has downloaded the app.”
“Aunt Xue is quite trendy.”
Jiang Chen laughed.
“My mom just loves a bargain.
This new platform offers great discounts, almost like throwing money away.
They even help with grocery shopping, otherwise, Kangaroo’s market value wouldn’t have dropped so fast.”
Jiang Chen looked at her with slight astonishnt.
“Luo Peng had thought about investing in delivery services before but then gave up after crunching the numbers.
Tianci didn’t have that much money,”
Li Shuru said.
“Why didn’t you tell about it?”
Jiang Chen asked.
“The investnt was too large.
According to Luo Peng, it’s almost like handing out free money.
Kangaroo fell by one-third, that new platform probably invested about that much.”
“Not that much.”
Jiang Chen subconsciously said.
Li Shuru paused, turned her head, “How do you know?”
Jiang Chen, realizing his slip of the tongue a bit late, thought it wasn’t necessary to hide.
“That new platform, I created it.”
“…”
Li Shuru suddenly fell silent.
