20 years of restarting life

Chapter 2830 Qi Peng is not about money

At this time, the voice of Wan Ruolong's son reading aloud in a foreign language could be faintly heard from upstairs.

The catchy voice made everyone in the living room stop talking. They listened to the sound of reading coming from upstairs with satisfied and happy expressions on their faces.

This is their hope, effort, and vision for a better future.

For the sake of children and the happiness of the next generation, do not suffer.

To this end, they do not hesitate to cheat, be shameless, and ruthlessly deal with people who have come from China to the Canadian city of Toronto. When fellow villagers meet, they will stab you without any negotiation.

Sometimes, the people in this living room think that they are so noble.

The purpose of their doing this is just to survive and for their children!

-

Zhao Changan came to the restaurant where he had agreed to meet Qi Peng. He pushed open the door of the private room and saw the smoke-filled room as hazy as a fairyland.

The tightly closed glass windows let in the sunlight from outside, creating beams of light in the diffuse smoke, and the Tyndall effect looks very artistic.

Zhao Changan was shocked by Qi Peng's change after not seeing him for only two days.

The handsome young man who was originally elegant and full of vigor and ambition, now turned into a drunkard with a shaggy beard, unkempt hair and lifeless eyes.

There were two 700ml bottles of high-proof brandy on the table. One had been opened and he drank most of it without even eating any food.

Although Zhao Changan could tell that Qi Peng's voice and mood were not right when he answered the phone, he didn't care.

Anyone who encountered this kind of thing, losing face and money, becoming a laughing stock, and having to write an IOU for more than one million dollars, would not be able to get over it easily.

Moreover, Wan Jiaona's gang is an unpredictable bomb. Who knows if they will continue to blackmail Qi Peng when he becomes richer in the future, and treat him as a long-term meal ticket and ATM.

But this kid looks too decadent now.

"Damn it, is that so serious? The sky isn't falling. Haven't you heard the hit song "Start Over Again" in recent years? Besides, this isn't really starting over again. Think of it as giving up money to avoid disaster, and a blessing in disguise. You need to have a long-term vision and not be limited to the gains and losses of a moment, a place, or a city."

Zhao Changan closed the door casually, then walked to the window, opened it, and let in the cool, fresh air. With the naked eye, one could see the hot, smoky air in the room quickly blowing out from the open window.

"Changan, I feel like I'm dumber than a pig. Yesterday, a parent of an international student contacted me and said that he heard from an acquaintance here that the Wan family specializes in eating this kind of food, and the whole family is scoundrels. A full 10 million yuan, 10 million! I worked so hard for these two semesters and gave them all the money. The problem is that there is also money to maintain the operation of the Canadian Student Service Center. I'm screwed!"

Qi Peng's eyes were bloodshot and he drank another glass of wine in one gulp.

"You are complaining to me like this, don't you want to borrow money? Okay, I'll lend you one million dollars, but the interest rate is 10% per year, do you want to borrow it? Also, this place is not like China. If you want to play with women, you'd better go out to whore them with your IQ. Although it costs money, you have to remember that free things are often the most expensive. Just like this time, million has been laundered from you, and the IOU has your signature and fingerprints, so it's not so easy to deny. For a broken old Kong, you have to work hard for at least two years and be a slave for two years. Calculate how many foreign women you can have with this money, and you are not interested in Wan Jiaona now!"

The fact is, no matter how stupid Qi Peng is, he is Qi Xiu's nephew and Tang Shuang's cousin after all, so there is no way he can just stand by and watch him die.

What's more, Qi Peng's International Student Service Center is deeply tied to Xizi Education in the field of overseas study education, and they can't just watch him fall into the quagmire without giving him a helping hand.

However, receiving help did not mean that Zhao Changan felt comfortable. He could not help but make sarcastic remarks to Qi Peng.

"It's not about money."

Qi Peng said with a gloomy face.

"It's not about money?"

Zhao Changan was surprised by Qi Peng's fresh and unconventional statement, and said with a smile: "That's great, I saved a million dollars of risky loans." Qi Peng was stunned for a moment, and said with a bitter face: "It's not entirely a matter of money."

"So what is the problem besides the money?"

Zhao Changan also drank a glass of wine in one gulp. Foreign wine tasted okay, but it was not as satisfying as domestic wine. In the middle of winter, drinking hot food with a sip of wine was so spicy that it made him cry.

"It is the Wan family that has the leverage over us. Even if we give them the one million in the future, seeing how easy it is to bully us, they will definitely keep targeting us in the future."

Qi Peng looked at Zhao Changan and said, "If this matter is not resolved, we will have endless troubles!"

Zhao Changan burst out laughing when he heard this. He picked up the bottle and filled Qi Peng's and his own glasses. He raised his hand and gestured, "Drink."

Qi Peng kept saying that it was not all about money, but in fact the essence of this matter was still about money. All the planning, greed, instigation and incitement were ultimately aimed at money.

It is very likely that the Wan family will continue to blackmail Qi Peng in the next few years or even longer by taking advantage of the business secrets of the International Student Service Center that Wan Jiaona holds.

Qi Peng, who didn't want to be taken advantage of by the money, wanted to drag Zhao Changan into the water and ask him to find a way to help settle the matter completely.

They are not stupid, they are all extremely smart people, but why do you think that Zhao Changan would be stupid?

So Zhao Changan's answer to Qi Peng's words was, "drink."

-

Qi Peng's alcohol tolerance is not bad. He drank two-thirds of two 700ml bottles of high-proof brandy by himself. He was really drunk and fell asleep on the table without moving.

Zhao Changan called the landline of the Toronto International Student Services Center and asked two male teachers to come over and take Qi Peng back.

Then he walked back to the hotel.

Zhao Changan has never had any higher expectations for many people and things in this world.

This of course includes Qi Peng.

And it was obvious that Qi Peng did not let Zhao Changan down. This time he even played the emotional card, hoping to use Zhao Changan to get rid of Wan Jiaona's trouble.

The question is, is Zhao Changan such an idiot?

Lending Qi Peng one million dollars is already very generous.

It can be said that both Shan Cai and Tao Jiao were opposed to the idea of ​​Qi Peng's International Student Service Center cooperating with Xizi Education, and Xizi Education holding shares in the International Student Service Center.

But Zhao Changan had no choice. He didn't want Tang Wenxuan to be caught in the middle, so he chose to help Qi Peng.

But he had to come up with an effective way to pull Qi Peng up.

However, due to the limitations in Canada, Zhao Changan had few options. In the end, he chose to let Qi Peng cooperate with Xizi Education to fleece the powerful and wealthy people in China who had uneducated children.

As a result, Qi Peng still failed to change his careless habits as the young master Qi in China. Wan Jiaona caught him and put him in a very troublesome situation.

Qi Peng meant that the International Student Service Center and Xizi Education were now grasshoppers on the same rope, and he wanted to force Zhao Changan to find a way to get rid of the Wan family.

But Zhao Changan is not that stupid. If he were such a fool, he would have been eaten up in China before he could drive Yi Nanometer abroad.
