Chapter 578: Without Rhyme or Reason.
“Old Xiao, your wife Su Li, Shen Qingyan of Huayao Group, and Cai Renhe of Renhe Pharmaceutical want to have an appointment. It seems that this war is going to end soon.” Zhang Dashan said over the phone with his usual annoying voice.
Xiao Luo was idle and sitting on the sofa watching TV. He was slightly surprised to hear Zhang Dashan’s news. He knew that this day would come, but he didn’t expect it to come so early.
After giving it some thoughts, he said, “Take care of it yourself.”
“I can’t, Old Xiao. They want to see the real owner of Luo Fang. I am just the spokesperson, I am not qualified.” Zhang Dashan said.
“……”
Xiao Luo was speechless. He thought he was overthinking, but it did seem that he couldn’t hide any longer.
“Damn, am I really talking to someone? Hello?” Zhang Dashan said impatiently.
“Alright, I’ll see you then.”
“En, it’s at three o’clock this afternoon, in our VIP meeting room in Luo Fang. Be sure to arrive in time.”
“OK.”
Xiao Luo nodded, and then ended the call.
Ten minutes later, Su Li came to his apartment. She still didn’t knock at the door and just opened the door and walked in.
In a black veil, she looked dignified and beautiful. With her light steps and soft moving waist, this woman’s beauty was still as suffocating as ever.
“I thought you weren’t here.” Su Li’s voice was very light and sat down on the sofa.
“I just happened to be idle.”
Xiao Luo poured her a cup of tea. “Why do you want to see me?”
“Nothing, can’t I just visit?” Su Li raised her head and her watery eyes fell on Xiao Luo’s face.
Xiao Luo was stunned but soon immediately smiled. “Yes, of course.”
Su Li took a sip of tea and was silent for a while. Then she said, “My Sumir lost, it lost to Luo Fang.”
“Well, your two companies have been all over the headlines, so it’s impossible not to know.” Xiao Luo nodded.
“Apart from these, you have nothing else to say?” Su Li was like a teen whining to her boyfriend at this time.
Xiao Luo shook his head. “I don’t know what to say.”
“Forget it.” Su Li said and looked away. She was slightly disappointed and changed the topic. “I will meet the person in charge of Luo Fang this afternoon. Do you have time to take care of Su Bei for me?”
“This… I also happen to have something.” Xiao Luo’s face was embarrassed.
“Although I don’t know what you’ve been busy with recently, it’s good to know that you have something to be busy with. OK, I’ll just ask Su Canye to come and take care of her. You go ahead.”
“Okay.”
After that, the two spoke no more words and the apartment suddenly quiet. Only the sound from the TV kept the place from turning dead silent.
Su Li took a cursory look at the content broadcasted on the TV. It was a story between a group of hyenas and a group of lions on a vast African prairie. It was about the top of the food chain and who’s the hunter.
“You actually like watching this kind of program?” She was obviously looking for a topic.
“It’s quite interesting to watch. These hyenas look small, but they still dare to grab food from the lion’s mouth when they are hungry.” Xiao Luo sat down next to her, of course, the distance between them remained more than half a meter.
“Is it?”
Su Li frowned. Although she was looking forward to getting closer with Xiao Luo, the process always made her a little unnatural. Take now for example, she really wanted to get some comfort from a man. After all, she worked hard for Sumir but still lost so thoroughly against the opponent, it was impossible to say that she wasn’t feeling down.
“Yes, see. They are stealing the lion’s prey.”
Xiao Luo finally managed to find a common topic to engage with this woman, so he naturally wouldn’t waste it. He believed that his feelings should be correct. This woman more or less also liked him, but she just didn’t know how to express it. Otherwise, when he was in Libya, she wouldn’t have chatted with him until midnight over WeChat. At that time, if he wasn’t in Libya and was in this apartment, he surely would’ve barged in her apartment and took her into his arms.
He asked, “Do you know which part of the prey, the hyenas like to attack best?”
Su Li shook her head. “Which part?”
“The butt…” Xiao Luo said without much thinking.
When Su Li heard this, her face immediately turned red. She looked at this man with her eyes wide open and thought, ‘How can this guy say such a word so bluntly?!’
However, she asked, “Why?”
“It is a strategic need, and it can also be said to be caused by the environment. The hyenas are short and can’t bite the neck of its prey, so they have to go to other parts of the prey and the anus is relatively soft and easy to bite with its teeth. As long as it bites the intestines, the more the prey runs and struggles, the more the intestines will be pulled out, and finally the goal of killing the prey is achieved. This technique has evolved through time.” Xiao Luo seriously explained, his thought was that this was just normal animal knowledge trivia, so explained it in a natural way.
Su Li felt her scalp tingle as she imagined such a bloody scene. She felt awkward and uncomfortable, and the words “strategic need” reminded her of her own Sumir and Luo Fang. She felt that Luo Fang was a hyena, while her Sumir was the prey.
She quickly took a sip of tea and stopped Xiao Luo from talking, “Okay, I know. Can you tell me about the lions?”
“Lions are big and powerful. They don’t attack the anus of prey like hyenas, and just bite the throat of their prey. However, as they enjoy their prey in a meal, some lions also like to start eating from the anus…”
“Poof!”
When she heard Xiao Luo talk about anuses again, Su Li couldn’t help spraying out the tea she had in her mouth, and then snapped at Xiao Luo, “Did you do it on purpose?”
“Did what?” Xiao Luo was confused.
“Saying that vulgar word on purpose.”
Su Li’s cheeks were very burning. She really didn’t like the word but this crazy guy just had to say it again. ‘Isn’t this word vulgar in his eyes?’ The two of them finally had a conversation going, but the result was just driving her going crazy.
“Anus is an academic term. How can it be a vulgar vocabulary? I didn’t say something like fart… Well, you know that word, right?” Xiao Luo explained.
‘Fart what?’
‘How on earth did this dead guy’s face get thicker than a city wall?’
Su Li was going crazy, her face immediately went red.
“Shameless and dirty!”
After snapping at Xiao Luo, she stood up and left. She felt that she would really lose her mind if she continued to stay here.
Xiao Luo was speechless. All he did was talk about animal knowledge, why was it shameless and dirty? ‘Isn’t this just like an expert talking about the anus in front of hundreds of students? And yet I’m shameless and dirty? So confusing!’
