Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 532 489: I'll Stand Up for You (35/51)

Isn't it all earned bit by bit by myself?

But now? She's spending my money and even insulting , heh heh...

Unknowingly, two lines of tears slid down Li Wentao's cheeks.

Especially the final sentence, 'You'll be a pauper your whole life; I won't suffer with you.' It struck Li Wentao directly, leaving him in tatters.

Lin Yi and Li Huiqun, standing nearby, couldn't bear it either, but both restrained themselves from speaking.

After all, at this mont, it was crucial to see how Li Wentao would handle it himself.

If he couldn't endure such a test, perhaps he really wouldn't be fit to take on a managerial role at the Zhaohe Group.

Moreover, when Li Wentao shed tears, Li Huiqun shook his head helplessly.

It seed that his brother still wasn't ruthless enough.

Throughout history, those who achieve great things must be decisive and bold, though it's also important to be passionate and righteous with a purpose.

As for a woman like this, according to Lin Yi and Li Huiqun's perspective, dealing with it decisively would suffice; there's no need to get entangled further, or to pity the other party. Kindness at this juncture would only cause more harm to oneself.

Let's talk about Li Wentao at this mont.

After hearing the woman's words, he silently asked himself, Am I really good for nothing? Am I truly unambitious? But the answer he got was negative.

He also wanted to carve out his own place in the world and have a day where others looked up to him.

Although he was doing the lowest of jobs, wearing a clown outfit to hand out flyers on the street, he had his own dreams too.

Even if the money seed handed over to her, wasn't it his dream as well?

He wanted to use that first pot of gold he saved to start a business.

In his mind, the money in this card was the startup capital for his future business.

With his current capabilities, these were the only things he could do, like distributing flyers on the street.

In his heart, he constantly reminded himself that although he couldn't make big money yet, he should never neglect making smaller amounts! Never be lazy!

A bit of hardship wasn't so bad; he was still young. As long as he worked hard enough, in the future, he too could carve out his own place in the world just like the boss.

Of course, although he had many feelings inside, he wouldn't show them.

After all, his character was clear as day.

Actually, according to Lin Yi's understanding of him, he was a hidden talent.

He just had a thick layer of hair, concealing his robust muscles beneath.

Lin Yi believed that as long as there was the right guide, he could bloom.

Of course, uncovering his potential had a precondition—that once discovered, this hidden talent must be brave enough to run.

Otherwise, even if he were a hidden talent, if he refused to take a step, he'd be no different from any ordinary horse.

The current situation was actually a very good opportunity for training and tempering his character.

Such opportunities weren't common.

Lin Yi believed that after this setback, two outcos could erge.

The first was that he would beco entirely despairing and never recover.

The second, however, would catapult him forward, making him realize all his previous weakness and cowardice were mistaken, allowing him to redefine himself and understand this treacherous world anew.

Of course, without soone to guide him, he might very likely end up like the forr, giving up altogether.

"Heh, are you done? If you're finished, let's leave it at that. Return the 16,500 yuan to before school starts. Let's call it quits between us. Otherwise, I won't mind suing you in court. That's it. Aside from returning the money, I don't want to receive any more calls from you."

Taking a deep breath and wiping away the tears from the corner of his eyes,

he then uttered these cold words and promptly hung up the phone.

It was clear that at this mont, his mood was terrible, nearly on the verge of collapse.

Yet at this ti, Lin Yi and Li Huiqun tactfully chose silence, quietly observing him.

Both understood that this was a form of growth.

Though all three were young, everyone's ntality was entirely different.

After ending the call, Li Wentao lifted his head, surprisingly giving them a smile.

In that smile, both Lin Yi and Li Huiqun noticed a hint of relief to their surprise.

This left both montarily stunned.

Then they too started smiling.

They both breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing from this smile that he probably had reached a decision in his heart.

Sure enough, he raised his glass with a smile:

"Heh, she finally scolded awake. The old was so cowardly; I don't even know what I was thinking back then to fall for a woman like that. Alas, forget about it. Today is Chinese New Year; let's drink, brothers."

After saying this, he directly raised his glass, and the three of them clinked glasses before drinking it all in one go.

However, on the other end of the phone, hearing the hang-up tone, a girl of average looks furiously threw her phone onto the bed:

"Li Wentao, you bastard! How dare you hang up on ! I'll make you regret it! Hmph, you're just a broke loser; you'll stay that way for life! I was blind to waste so long on you!"

Right after she said this, a man's voice echoed by her side:

"Oh dear, why are you angry with him? I told you long ago that guy's a fool, just a poor idiot. Yet you insisted on dating him?"

Now, have you seen his true colors?

Let tell you, if you find a boyfriend again, let vet him properly. Only with my approval can you date him, got it?

Co on, give the phone; I'll call him and give him a piece of my mind for you!"

Saying this, a man with a sowhat refined look approached her and gently stroked her hair.

Not only that, but by the end, he even held her in his embrace.

If Li Wentao were here, he'd imdiately recognize this guy as Xiao Chen, her male confidant...
