Chapter 710 Sunk Costs
The next morning!
Lin Zhengyi left the car at the repair shop and asked Ryoko's brother to fix it. Then he went to the police station to record the statement of the drag racers caught last night.

After the confession was recorded, he continued to work.

Finally, after a busy whole day, it’s time to get off work.

After get off work, because the car had not been repaired yet, Lin Zhengyi took a taxi and went to a bar.

"Bang bang bang~"

There was loud music playing in the bar.

But at this time, perhaps because the office workers had just got off work and had not yet filled their stomachs, let alone gone out to play, the place seemed quite empty.

There were only a few guests sitting and drinking.

but!

Lin Zhengyi didn't care about this matter either.

After he entered the bar, he immediately took a quick look at the scene.

quickly!

His eyes were fixed on a woman who was drinking in the corner.

Immediately!

He walked towards the woman without hesitation.

The purpose of Lin Zhengyi's trip was to find this woman, because this woman was none other than Jiu Wenlong's ex-girlfriend Ma Jiaohong!

At this time, Ma Jiaohong was staring at the table with a dull look, on which was a bottle of wine and a glass. Her eyes were dull, but her hands did not stop moving. She kept pouring the wine and drinking it one glass after another, as if she was worried about something.

But when Lin Zhengyi came to her side, she reacted and said coldly, "Get away!"

She started talking big as soon as they met, and it was obvious that she was in a bad mood.

To this!

Lin Zhengyi didn't care about it. He directly picked up the wine in front of Ma Jiaohong, asked for a glass from the bartender next to him, poured it himself, and then started to taste it.

"Well, not bad!"

After taking a sip, Lin Zhengyi said this.

Seeing this scene, Ma Jiaohong narrowed her eyes, revealing a dangerous light in them, and asked faintly, "Are you looking for death?"

"Ma Jiaohong!"

When Lin Zhengyi heard her words, he said calmly, "I'm here to help you!"

"help me?!"

Hearing this, Ma Jiaohong seemed to have heard a joke, with a disdainful sneer on her face, and said, "You know what I'm worried about, so you want to help me?"

"Do you want Jiu Wenlong to make a comeback?" Lin Zhengyi said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out!
The smile on Ma Jiaohong's face suddenly froze.

Immediately, she narrowed her eyes and asked, "Who are you? What is your purpose?"

To this!

Lin Zhengyi didn't waste any time and directly took out his ID and placed it on the table.

Ma Jiaohong glanced at the ID, then looked deeply at Lin Zhengyi, and said, "Ah, sir, I don't know why you came to me, but I don't like dealing with the police!"

Although Ma Jiaohong didn't know what Lin Zhengyi's specific purpose was.

But as a gangster, she instinctively hates the police, so she said that.

"It doesn't matter whether you like dealing with the police or not, but there is a reason why I came to you this time. At least, you have to listen to me and tell you the reason!" Lin Zhengyi said calmly.

Hear this!

"What's the reason?" Although Ma Jiaohong didn't like dealing with the police, she still responded.

No matter what, you should always listen to the other person finish speaking first, right?
"I came to you because I want to cooperate with you and let Jiu Wenlong return to the arena!" Lin Zhengyi stated his purpose directly, and said, "Also, I want him to be the boss of Shenghe!"

Hear this!

Ma Jiaohong was stunned for a moment, and then, as if she had heard something incredible, she looked at Lin Zhengyi with an incomprehensible expression and said, "Sir, are you kidding me?"

"No, I'm serious!"

Lin Zhengyi said calmly, "The reason why I have this idea is because Shenghe is now involved in flour, and this kind of thing is the most difficult thing for us policemen to accept!"

"Under this premise, I decided to support a boss who doesn't do this kind of business, so as to cut off Shenghe's business!"

He briefly explained his reasons.

After hearing this, Ma Jiaohong still found it a little unbelievable.

In order to avoid making a fortune, we have to support one person to become the leader.

I always feel that this incident is too unfair and too unbelievable.

She couldn't believe it and always felt that there was something fishy going on.

To this
As if he had seen through her thoughts, Lin Zhengyi said directly, "I know you think I might be lying, and I don't expect you to believe me, but there is a prerequisite for what I want to do, and that is Jiu Wenlong's comeback!"

"Based on this point alone, I say our goals are the same. Do you agree?"

"Ok!"

Ma Jiaohong nodded subconsciously.

"And this is also easy to handle. You don't have to worry about whether my real purpose is as I said. In short, how about the two of us get Jiu Wenlong back first? We can talk about the rest later!" Lin Zhengyi said in a deep voice.

Hear this!

Ma Jiaohong subconsciously frowned and thought for a moment, then said bitterly, "But, how can it be so easy for him to come back?"

In the first few days after Jiu Wenlong came back, she looked for him and asked him to make a comeback.

But the other party had no intention of making a comeback, so she went to him but naturally came back empty-handed.

And this morning, she also looked for the other party, and got the same result.

This is also the reason why she was drinking alone here.

She wants the other party to make a comeback, but he has no such idea at all. She is now racking her brains over how to make him make a comeback.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengyi knew that the other party had already made up his mind.

Immediately!

"It's easy to say it's easy to get him back, but it's also not easy to say it's not easy!"

Lin Zhengyi said calmly, "The reason why Jiu Wenlong didn't come back is because of his father. His father has been persuading him to stop, but he was young and hot-tempered back then, so he never listened."

"But after what happened in Taiguo, he was put in prison but had no one to help him. He couldn't even go to see his father when he died. His father's suicide note also advised him to turn over a new leaf. For all these reasons, he insisted on turning over a new leaf!"

"Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to get him to make a comeback, because he has already paid a terrible price for his transformation."

"My father died and I went to jail."

"And in this case, if you want him to come back, the price he has to pay is higher than the price he originally paid for his reformation. Only then will he have enough reasons and reasons to come back, and he will come back!"

Hearing this, Ma Jiaohong subconsciously asked, "What should we do then?"

"I have to say a word here, sunk cost!" Lin Zhengyi smiled slightly.

What is a sunk cost?

Sunk costs are expenses incurred in the past but are not relevant to current decisions.

When people decide whether to do something, they not only consider whether it is good for them, but also whether they have invested in it in the past.

All these irreversible expenditures, such as time, money, and energy, are called "sunk costs"!
