ransom

Chapter 22
Jin Yuming waited boredly in the study for news from the Lin family, while Qi Tian went upstairs on crutches after eating to talk to Jin Dianen.

In the study, as soon as Jin Dian'en saw Qi Tian coming again, he couldn't help looking at him with appreciative eyes.

There was no need for Qi Tian to ask her, Jin Dianen took the initiative to give half of the sofa to Qi Tian, ​​and tacitly allowed Qi Tian to sit beside her.

Qi Tian rubbed his head and said embarrassedly: "I asked the housekeeper to bring the wheelchair up, thank you for your kindness."

After listening, Jin Dianen sat back in the middle of the sofa with a blank expression.

Qi Tian saw that she was reading Moby-Dick, a novel by the 19th-century American novelist Herman Melville.

This story tells the story of Captain Ahab chasing and killing Moby Dick, the white sperm whale, and finally died with it.

When Qi Tian read this book, he remembered that the book review described this tragedy in this way: Ahab finally sank tragically together with his whaling ship "Peiguiat", but the hero "body" died and the "god" Today, the feats of Ahab and other crew members have inspired the American nation of later generations to strive for ideals and justice without fear of hardships and difficulties.

But Qi Tian felt that it was not like this. It was obvious that Ahab wanted to avenge himself, put the interests of other shipowners behind him, and went his own way regardless of the life and death of the crew.Even in order to achieve their own interests, they threatened and lured the crew, which led to the tragedy of the ship crash and death.

In Qi Tian's heart, Captain Ahab is more cruel and evil than Moby Dick. He is a symbol of darkness and evil, and his actions lack morality as the bottom line and rational thinking as the basis. Let the instinct to drive the effort of action, and in the end, it led to the tragedy.

For a moment, Qi Tian seemed to understand, was Jin Dian'en reading this book alluding to Jin Yuming's imprisoning her in order to avenge her father's actions?Isn't it the same, cruel and evil?
Qi Tian asked, "Why didn't you read yesterday's "Confessions"?"

Jin Dianen buried himself in the book and ignored him.

Qi Tian didn't feel embarrassed either, and continued to ask, "What should I do to make you want to talk to me?"

Jin Dian raised his head from the book, took out a writing board beside him, and said, "Go out."

Qi Tian took her writing board and replied: "Is it just going out of the gate or out of the villa area?"

Jin Dianen replied: "The gate."

Qi Tian nodded to show that he understood, and wrote a sentence on the clipboard: "Okay."

So instead of staying here any longer, I went back to my room to find a way.

Until twelve o'clock in the evening, Jin Yuming didn't come to the room to say a word to herself. Qi Tian knew that she had a job, so she didn't say anything. After washing herself, she went to bed and fell asleep.

Lin Fusi disobeyed Mencius Ao's order, and Mencius Ao was furious, so he called him directly.

At this time, Lin Fusi was having dinner with his wife.

As soon as the phone rang, Mrs. Lin raised her head and looked at Lin Fusi. Lin Fusi was so guilty that he didn't even look at who was calling, so he hung up immediately, and looked at his wife cheerfully, and put vegetables in her bowl Li, said softly: "Harassing phone calls, eat and eat."

Mrs. Lin sneered, but said nothing.

But the next second the phone rang again, and it seemed extraordinarily restless in the very quiet air.

Lin Fusi was annoyed, and he was about to mute the phone when he picked up the phone, but when he glanced at the string of numbers on the screen, he was taken aback, raised his head and looked at his wife stutteringly: "Ma'am, yes office number."

Madam Lin put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands in a leisurely manner, and asked, "Is it Jin Yuming who is calling you for work at this time?"

Lin Fusi said with a guilty conscience, "No."

Mrs. Lin said with a smile: "Okay, no matter who it is, you can pick it up here and turn on the speakerphone."

Lin Fusi looked at Mrs. Lin's irresistible eyes, and pressed the answer button in a compromise.

In the next second, Mencius's evil voice came from the phone: "Lin Fusi, you dare to hang up on me, your wings are hardened. In this case, I will let you have a long memory."

Immediately afterwards, two beeps came from the receiver, and before Lin Fusi could explain, Meng Ziao hung up the phone.

Mrs. Lin heard Mencius's threat, and chuckled softly: "It's Mencius, you really have stiff wings, and even dare to provoke him, tell me, what's the matter?"

In the business circle, the Shang family and the Meng family are indistinguishable, but in the political circle, the Meng family is indeed one step behind the Shang family, and is not as powerful as the Shang family.

Lin Fusi said with a bitter face: "Madam..."

Mrs. Lin didn't even look at Lin Fusi, and said sarcastically, "You know how to call me Mrs.? When I first pursued me, I said that I can't tolerate a little sand in my eyes. You'd better not give it to me." What kind of tricks did you come up with? You are Jin Yuming's subordinates, but now Meng Ziao calls you, and you say, what kind of tricks did you fall into Meng Ziao's hands?"

Lin Fusi was terrified and begged for mercy: "Ma'am, please forgive me this time. I was also tricked by Mencius Ao. He holds the evidence of my fraudulent accounting in his hand, and uses it to blackmail me into doing things for him."

Mrs. Lin asked directly: "Why do you have to make fake accounts?"

Lin Fusi quibbled: "Who would think that he has too much money?"

Without further ado, Mrs. Lin picked up a teacup on the table and slammed it on the ground, scolding: "Fusi Lin! Are you still lying to me now?"

Lin Fusi didn't dare to say a word: "Ma'am calm down, I made fake accounts for the company to vent my anger on Jin Yuming, but I didn't expect that the evidence of those fake accounts fell into the hands of Mencius. "

Mrs. Lin sneered: "I have no brains and want to mess with others. Mencius is a lunatic, isn't Jin Yuming? Why didn't you tell me if there was something wrong between you and her? Can you think of any stupid way? Lin Fusi, don't think I don't know about the shitty things you did, I'll give you a chance to tell yourself, don't be ashamed!"

Lin Fusi knelt down in front of his wife with a "plop", weeping bitterly: "Ma'am, I am wronged, this is all because of that guy Meng Ziao who framed me, I dare not say it.

Mrs. Lin glanced at Lin Fusi in disgust, and spat: "It's really shameless, let Hu Meizi climb on the bed and dare to say that someone else framed it, the first time it was unintentional, what about the later? Didn't you want to? Steal How dare you beg me for mercy here."

Lin Fusi did not give up and said: "Madam, help me this time, I promise, I will never do such a stupid thing again."

Mrs. Lin gave Lin Fusi a contemptuous look and said, "Get up, I will settle the matter of false accounts, and I will not let Meng Ziao and Jin Yuming send you to jail, but there is nothing to change about your stealing. I can't bear it either, after these things are over, you should just leave the house and don't let me see you again."

Lin Fusi's face was gloomy.
