That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1364 I am a foreigner

Jin Peng truly lives up to his reputation as a leader who has dominated the underworld for seven or eight years; his judgment is exceptionally accurate, to say the least.

Just two days after he reminded Li Ye, Lu Zixue, who had just washed his crotch, actually started biting back.

Commander Zhou called Li Ye over, his eyes filled with complex emotions, and said, "Li Ye, we'll need you to go to the embassy again. We believe you're innocent, but they've invited Western journalists, and not just one."

"I understand, I will handle it."

Upon hearing the words "Western journalists," Li Ye knew he couldn't remain uninvolved in this matter.

Given the style of Commander Zhou and Comrade Wang, they would take any involvement with Western journalists very seriously and hold the individuals involved strictly accountable, whether by appeasement or suppression, in an effort to resolve the matter satisfactorily.

Li Ye certainly wouldn't try to appease Lu Zixue; he was seething with anger and had nowhere to vent it! How could he possibly appease him?

But when Li Ye arrived at the embassy entrance in a huff, he almost burst out laughing.

Because Li Ye saw Lu Zixue before he even got off the bus.

Lu Zixue, with a crooked nose and slanted eyes, was using a cane.

Although Li Ye was already mentally prepared when Jin Peng said that Lu Zixue had been stabbed in the face, he still couldn't help but laugh when he saw the rough stitches on the other's face.

"Was this the wound stitched up by the quack doctor?"

Although the four major evil arts of East Asia were not so popular in 1992, Li Ye thought it was really outrageous that a wound could be stitched up like that.

At this moment, Jiang Shiqi, who had come with Li Ye, explained, "Brother Peng told me that Lu Zixue's wound was stitched up by the kidnappers. After being rescued, he didn't immediately go for another surgery, but instead chose to embarrass himself here."

"How shameful!"

If someone else had suffered this kind of harm, they would definitely be wearing a hat and mask to cover themselves up completely.

However, Lu Zixue was probably doing it for visual effect. With that stubborn, arrogant face, a limp, and the big sign he was holding, it was a perfect comedic setup.

Qu Qingyou, who was driving, usually didn't speak, but suddenly said, "Aren't we making a fuss over nothing?"

Li Ye nodded and said, "It is indeed a bit of an overreaction. It's all Commander Zhou's fault for making things sound so serious."

Based on what Commander Zhou said to Li Ye, Li Ye thought this was going to cause some kind of diplomatic incident!

When they arrived, they found that it wasn't like that at all.

The people in the embassy had no interest in dealing with Lu Zixue. Someone like Lu Zixue wouldn't even be able to get into the embassy if he wanted to.

Lu Zixue was protesting in front of the door with a big sign, which was a bit annoying, so they notified Commander Zhou to come and deal with it.

Whoever soiled their pants, come and clean it up right now, so it's not an eyesore.

Li Ye glanced around and spotted Lu Jingyao, Lu Jingqi, and Jiang Xiaoyan sitting in two groups not far away, along with two bored reporters.
Li Ye was a little surprised, because looking at the two people's bored appearance, if it weren't for the cameras hanging around their necks, Li Ye would have thought they were ordinary people who came out to sunbathe in the spring!

[Not very proactive? Are you just here to slack off and collect your salary?]

But when Li Ye's car stopped next to Lu Jingyao and the other two, the two reporters who seemed to be dozing off looked up.

Li Ye opened the door and got out of the car. As soon as the two men saw that he was of East Asian descent, they rushed over as if they were on drugs.

This time, Li Ye didn't come alone. In addition to Qu Qingyou and Jiang Shiqi, he brought several other people with him. They immediately formed a human wall to keep the two reporters outside.

Then Li Ye coldly asked Lu Jingyao, "Are you satisfied now? You spent over two million just to save this bastard?"

Lu Jingyao's face turned deathly pale, and she couldn't utter a single word. Gao Xiaoyan couldn't bear to watch any longer and gently explained, "Brother Li, please don't scold Sister Jingyao anymore. She's been driven almost crazy by Lu Zixue these past few days."

She's not going crazy, she's just regretting it.

How much does a woman value her money?

Do you think a woman would say something like, "A fortune lost will return"?

Anyone who spends their hard-earned money on such a scoundrel of a younger brother would regret it, just like throwing money into a stinking ditch and getting splashed with its own filth.

Li Ye didn't care whether Lu Jingyao regretted it or not. He pointed at Lu Zixue and asked, "Can you still control him now? If you can't, then I'll have to."

Lu Jingyao clenched her teeth, unsure of how to answer.

She definitely can't control Lu Zixue anymore! But if she lets Li Ye handle it, how will Li Ye manage it?
Looking at the menacing expressions of the people around Li Ye, Lu Jingyao dared not imagine what would happen to them.

Finally, Lu Jingyao said in a low voice, "I just want to take him away for treatment as soon as possible. I know my brother; he has no patience and can't last more than a few days. Also, some reporters have taken notice of this matter, so please don't do anything reckless, or you'll get into trouble."

"But now he's already gotten himself into trouble."

Just then, Lu Zixue limped over, leaning on his crutches, and looked at Li Ye with a cold smile. The scars on his face looked even more ridiculous because of his smile.

Li Ye smiled faintly: "Really? Then tell me, what trouble have I gotten myself into?"

Lu Zixue said angrily, "Even now you're still being stubborn. Do you know that Western countries are very concerned about human rights in China? You colluded with criminal gangs to kidnap me, staged a ransom scam, and caused me physical and psychological harm."

Human rights? Heh heh heh.

Li Ye laughed. In the 1990s, many people in mainland China believed the nonsense from the West, thinking that the West was helping them fight for human rights. But decades later, when China talked to the West about human rights, the West began to pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Therefore, any slogan or ideology is actually just a tool for everyone to make profits, so don't take it too seriously.

Li Ye didn't take Lu Zixue's words seriously at all, but the taciturn Qu Qingyou did.

He immediately retorted with a stern face, "What makes you think we're colluding with the kidnappers? Even if you bring in reporters, don't try to frame us. The West values ​​not only human rights but also the law. We can sue you."

To everyone's surprise, Lu Zixue was even more agitated than Qu Qingyou: "I framed you? That's ridiculous! The kidnappers originally demanded a ransom of twenty million, not a penny less, but after your people arrived, they voluntarily lowered it to two million!"

How close must your relationship be for a group of ruthless killers to willingly give up £18 million?
Even so, you still have the nerve to charge 120,000 yuan in security fees? Let me tell you, this time you'll have to return every single penny of that money, and you'll also have to compensate me for medical expenses, disability compensation, and mental distress damages, totaling at least 20 million yuan.”

"."

Li Ye listened quietly to Lu Zixue's request and felt that this guy was really good at math. His sister had spent 2.2 million to save someone, and he wanted to earn it back tenfold.

That's a really good deal!
Li Ye chuckled and then said, "What if I don't pay? What can you do to me then?"

"You're not going to pay?"

Lu Zixue raised his head with a cold laugh and pointed to his chest: "Do you know who I am?"

Li Ye was a little stunned, thinking to himself, "Did you join some amazing organization?"
But during the days Lu Zixue was kidnapped, no powerful figures came to rescue him! Why are they acting so arrogantly now?

But Lu Zixue's next sentence stunned Li Ye.

"I'm a foreigner!"
