Chapter 723
Seeing that Chen Kai had no intention of answering the phone, Zhang Yilong couldn't help asking.

"Who is calling? Why don't you answer it?"

Chen Kai smiled helplessly.

"It's an unfamiliar number, and it shows as local. I don't know who this person is, so I'm hesitating whether to answer the call."

Zhang Yilong took a sip of beer and put the glass heavily on the table.

"Do you care who called him? Don't you know when you answer it? Think about how many people in Yucheng know your phone number? How many people call you in such a midnight time?"

"Maybe it's that kid Li Yunliang, or maybe it's the head of the Li family who called you."

After hearing this, Chen Kai thought it made sense, so he answered the phone call coldly and politely.

"I'm Chen Kai, who are you looking for?"

A young man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I'm Li Zixi, the eldest son of the head of the Li family. Li Yunliang has already told me what happened. I would like to ask, why do you want to see my father?"

Chen Kai was taken aback, he didn't expect Zhang Yilong to really hit the mark, he looked at Zhang Yilong with some surprise, and suddenly forgot to answer the words in the phone.

Seeing Chen Kai's expression, Zhang Yilong reacted immediately, but he didn't know what he should say at this time, so he picked up the wine glass and took another big sip.

Chen Kai let out a long sigh.

"It stands to reason that your status is not low in your family, but I can't tell you what I want to talk about. Let your father answer the phone once, and I will tell him."

Li Zixi felt a little disappointed after hearing this, and even felt an inexplicable anger in his heart. He was the eldest son of the Li family, no matter where he was, as long as he showed his identity, the other party would definitely be polite.

However, what Chen Kai said didn't mean any respect at all. Instead, he didn't take himself seriously, feeling that he wasn't qualified enough to speak with him.

But he also knew that the person who dared to speak like this must have an unusual background, maybe it was someone who only his father could receive?

Thinking of this, he restrained himself and spoke slowly.

"It's really unfortunate that my father is going out to worship the Buddha now, and he is not in Yucheng at all. He won't be able to come back until next week. If you have something to do, I can talk to you directly."

Chen Kai was very different after hearing this, and felt that this incident was really a coincidence.

Why didn't the Patriarch of the Li family go to pay homage to the Buddha sooner or later, but why did he wait until he was no longer in Yucheng when he was looking for him?
Is there any conspiracy in the middle?Or maybe it was just an excuse from the other party, saying that the head of the Li family didn't want to see him.

Li Zixi couldn't hear Chen Kai's response for a long time, so she couldn't help but urged.

"Did you hear what I said? I just said that my father is not in Yucheng, and it is not convenient to meet with you. We can have a chat. If it is really something that I can't decide, I just want my father to report it."

Only then did Chen Kai regain his senses, and coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment of his distraction just now.

"In that case, let me think about it."

Li Zixi became even more annoyed, but still didn't get angry.

"Then I don't know how long sir will have to think about it? You know, I'm also very busy, and it's really late now, I'm afraid I have to rest, or we'll call again tomorrow?"

Chen Kai considered that Ye Chang had many dreams, and that if Li Zixi changed his mind tomorrow, there might be many twists and turns in this matter, so he stopped him.

"Don't be so anxious, of course I have to talk to the Patriarch about such a big matter, but since you are the eldest son of the Li family, it's not impossible to talk about this matter at all."

"You have to let me think about it? Well, you wait for me for 10 minutes, and I will call after 10 minutes."

Li Zixi was silent for a while, and finally spoke reluctantly.

"Well, I'll wait for you for 10 minutes. If I don't get your call after 10 minutes, it means that you don't want to talk to me. You can only contact you when my father comes back."

Chen Kai agreed, and then hung up the phone.

Because Zhang Yilong was sitting opposite and the restaurant was rather messy, he couldn't hear what Li Zixi said clearly.

But from the expression on Chen Kai's face, it can be inferred that this matter may not be negotiated. Seeing that Chen Kai put the phone in his pocket, he couldn't help but ask.

"What's going on? Does the head of the Li family not want to see you?"

Chen Kai shook his head lightly, picked up the beer thoughtfully, took a big sip, and then looked at Zhang Yilong and said slowly.

"Li Zixi, the eldest son of the Patriarch of the Li family, called and said that he wanted to talk to me himself. His father was not in Yucheng, and he went to worship Buddha somewhere. This made me think it was a bit too coincidental."

Zhang Yilong murmured.

"Does it mean that his father doesn't want to see you, so he asked his son to call you casually, and this matter is over?"

Chen Kai nodded silently.

"I think that might be the meaning, but I'm not sure. I have to call Song Taojie and ask him to find out if this old man really went somewhere to worship Buddha."

As he spoke, he took out his cell phone once and called Song Taojie.

It was really too late, it was close to one o'clock in the morning, and Tao Jie was sent to the hospital to be bored, and he had already fallen asleep.

Waking up by the ringing of the phone, the voice revealed a bit of sullenness, no matter who was woken up by others while asleep, it would not be very polite, and Song Taojie was of course no exception.

"Who is this? You don't let people sleep in the middle of the night. Why are you calling?"

Chen Kai coughed lightly.

"I'm Chen Kai, I'm really sorry to disturb your rest."

When Song Taojie heard Chen Kai's voice, he immediately regained his energy, and said with a polite smile.

"Oh, why is it you? I didn't expect you to stay up so late. What's the matter?"

Chen Kai also smiled awkwardly.

"Accordingly, I should really be sleeping at this point, but Li Zixi called me just now and said that his father is not in Yucheng, can you check for me if this news is true?"

Song Taojie asked in surprise.

"Did Li Zixi actually call you? This means that there is a door to this matter."

Chen Kai rolled his eyes angrily, and calmly took another big gulp of the short-term beer.

"It's not important anymore. I just want to know if Li Zixi is lying. You should stop talking about those useless things. I promised the other party that I will call him back in 10 minutes."

Song Taojie's voice revealed a little excitement.

"What else do you need to check? Who doesn't know that Mr. Li will go to burn incense and worship Buddha at this time of year, so Li Zixi is telling the truth and not lying to you."

Chen Kai felt relieved, said a few more polite words, and then hung up the phone.

Zhang Yilong immediately asked.

"How is it? What did Brother Song say?"

Chen Kai explained a few sentences briefly, and Zhang Yilong said excitedly.

"That means Li Zixi is telling the truth. How about it? What do you think about it? Do you want to call Li Zixi back immediately?"

Chen Kai nodded silently, and said helplessly.

"Since Mr. Li is not here, I can only talk to his son."

After speaking, he dialed Li Zixi's cell phone again.

Li Zixi was obviously holding a mobile phone in his hand, so he connected the phone immediately and asked impatiently.

"How is it? Have you considered it clearly?"

Chen Kai sighed lightly.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with talking to you about this matter first. How about it? Let's meet at the Sovereign Club at noon tomorrow. Let's make an agreement like this. See you soon."

Li Zixi immediately nodded in agreement, then hung up the phone.

Li Yunliang didn't leave, but waited by the side. After all, it was a matter of life and death. He didn't dare to be careless when he saw Li Zixi.After hanging up the phone, he immediately asked anxiously.

"Did the kid agree to meet you?"

Li Zixi let out a long sigh, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"He agreed. We made an appointment to meet at Junhao Clubhouse tomorrow. I'm already a little interested in this person. What the hell is he?"
