Jiang Tao sighed and felt upset.
Zhao Pengfei is his cousin, and Lu Ye has always lacked a reliable agent. When Zhao Pengfei first entered the industry, it was impossible for him to sign a top racing driver like Lu Ye.
But Jiang Tao was such a jerk that he helped bring the two of them together.
Originally, it was thought that both parties could get what they wanted, and Zhao Pengfei did his best in the beginning. However, as Lu Ye's status grew, Zhao Pengfei's appetite also grew.
Without discussing it with Lu Ye, he took on a lot of business for him.
Jiang Tao knew that Lu Ye was giving him a warning just for his sake. If it were someone else, they would have terminated the contract without any negotiation.
One is his cousin and the other is his childhood friend. He is stuck in the middle and feels like a nobody.
Jiang Tao touched his nose and said, "Okay, I'll tell him when I get back."
After he finished speaking, his expression changed, and he smiled at Lu Ye with a sly look on his face: "Brother Lu, have you made any progress on the matter I asked you for help a few days ago?"
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows and said in a calm tone, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Tao winked and said mysteriously, "That's the beautiful lady I asked you to help find..."
Lu Ye lowered his eyes and took a sip of tea, showing no intention of responding.
He hasn't found the person he's looking for yet, so how can he have the time to care about others?
"Hey, Brother Lu, please give me a clear answer. Will you help me? You are the most connected person in my circle of friends. If you don't help, I will be at my wit's end."
Lu Ye sneered: "Don't try that on me, first help me find the person I'm looking for, then we can talk about other things."
"Brother Lu, who are you looking for? You always come to this noodle shop. Did you meet him here?"
Lu Ye glanced at him, raised the still steaming tea in his hand and took a sip. His eyes were deep, as if he was lost in distant memories. "I don't know either. I met her in the alley behind. At that time, I was often chased by my father's creditors. If she hadn't called the police in time, I'm afraid there would be no one named Lu Ye in this world..."
Before he could finish his words, the door of the noodle shop was pushed open again, and the bell on the door made a shrill sound.
A group of thugs swaggered in, the young man in the lead with an arrogant expression and an imposing manner. He was followed by several younger brothers, all dressed in fancy clothes, their eyes darting around with obvious hostility.
Uncle Chen, who came out of the kitchen to greet the guests, turned pale in an instant. He pushed Aunt Chen, who was about to come out with him, back into the kitchen. Then he forced a smile and hurried forward to greet them.
His body was slightly hunched, his hands clasped together, and his face was filled with an ingratiating smile: "Brother Bao, you're here. Have you eaten dinner yet? Would you like to have something to eat here?"
Brother Bao glanced at Uncle Chen, his lips curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile. He turned back to look at his men, his face full of pride: "Look, Uncle Chen is still a good man."
Then, he said to Uncle Chen arrogantly, "Stop talking nonsense. Don't think you can get away with it by saying a few nice words. Where's the money?"
Uncle Chen nodded repeatedly, took out a red envelope from under the counter and handed it over respectfully.
Brother Leopard weighed it, his expression suddenly changed, and he said angrily: "Why is it missing?"
Uncle Chen's face turned pale and he hurriedly explained, "Impossible, I've counted them all, the total is..."
Brother Bao sneered, "That was last month's price. Prices are rising so much now, even the tom-toms are so expensive, so naturally we have to raise our prices as well."
Suddenly, a sneer sounded from the side, the tone was mocking: "You don't even have a brain, and you're trying to imitate others to collect membership fees."
