I'm not interested in money or women.

Chapter 158 Gao Qi's Wisdom

After leaving Cheng Wei, Gao Qi didn't say a word on the way to the Texas Hold'em Club, as if he was thinking about something.

Lu Feng noticed her abnormality, but didn't ask any more questions.

Unless Gao Qi speaks up, he won't meddle in other people's business.

When the taxi was about to arrive at SOHO, Gao Qi finally spoke: "I understand."

Lu Feng glanced at her, then looked away without asking any more questions.

But Gao Qi just kept talking to himself: "I've been feeling that something is different these past two days, but I didn't know what it was. Now I finally found it."

As she spoke, she looked at Lu Feng with some excitement and asked tentatively: "You don't really want to cooperate with Wang Guoqiang, you want to trick him, right?"

Hearing her ask this, Lu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at her in surprise, and finally spoke: "Why do you say that?"

"Because when you talked to him that day, it felt a bit strange to me."

Gao Qi said confidently: "Although I have not known you for a long time, I know that although you are not a good person, you are definitely not a bad person.

But that day at Wang Guoqiang's place, you clearly heard someone being cheated by him and coming to him to ask for money, but you remained indifferent.

Moreover, even I could tell there were problems with the twisted logic he said, but you didn't expose it and instead agreed with him.

I felt something was wrong at that time, but I couldn't put it into words.

It wasn’t until these two days, when I accompanied you to meet Zhang Yiming and today’s Cheng Wei, that I realized what was wrong.”

"is it?"

Lu Feng asked with a smile: "How did you find out?"

"You have been discussing investment with Zhang Yiming, Cheng Wei and others these past two days, which shows that you really want to cooperate."

Gao Qi said affirmatively: "Because what you are talking about with them is the development of the industry, the analysis and expectations of the future, and the predictions of the future development of products based on existing technologies and divergent thinking. These are all truly valuable things.

But when you discussed cooperation with Wang Guoqiang, you talked about some rather empty things, all empty words and clichés. You also liked to cooperate with him in talking about human nature and criticizing the greed of ordinary people.

That condescending attitude is not the real you, you are acting for Wang Guoqiang."

Listening to her analysis, Lu Feng looked at her with surprise and approval in his eyes for the first time.

This girl really has some taste, right?

"How can you be so sure?"

Lu Feng asked with a smile: "I also analyzed the future trend of the stamp market?"

"That's different."

Gao Qi shook his head: "What you talked about with Zhang Yiming, Cheng Wei and others is real and has a basis in reality.

But what you talked about with Wang Guoqiang was all nonsense, predictions about future policies, which in itself is very unrealistic.

And when you chat with Wang Guoqiang, I always have a feeling, a very strange feeling, like... like..."

She was trying to find an adjective: "It's like you are painting a rosy picture for Wang Guoqiang, describing a bright future for him, but no one knows whether the future is as good as you say."

At this point, she looked at Lu Feng with more certainty, and said confidently: "And there is one thing that confirms my guess. You did it on purpose. You actually wanted to trick Wang Guoqiang."

Lu Feng didn't respond, but just signaled her to continue with his eyes.

"Because you have been playing Texas Hold'em with Wang Shengjie these past few days, and he has become addicted to it."

Gao Qi became more certain: "You talked with Yang Jian about the Macau Professional Tournament for a long time yesterday, and Wang Shengjie listened attentively and said he wanted to go too.

I just realized now that you did it on purpose. You wanted to lead him astray and lure him to Macau for real, right?"

This time, Lu Feng was really surprised.

Gao Qi was much smarter than he thought. Just from the perspective of an observer, he guessed his intention by analyzing some clues.

"But why did you do that?"

Gao Qi was confused again: "You and Wang Guoqiang didn't know each other before, right? Why are you targeting him? Is there some deep hatred?" Seeing that she was about to guess the truth step by step, Lu Feng spoke lightly, interrupting her thoughts: "Do you think I shouldn't target him?"

"of course not."

Gao Qi denied it outright: "I can roughly guess what he did. They were all scams and deceptions. I don't know how many people he harmed.

People like him should be arrested and not allowed to continue to harm others."

"How do you catch it?"

Lu Feng smiled: "Do you think he has few lawsuits? Or does he not know what he is doing?
People like him have avoided all legal risks before doing anything.

Moreover, it is not entirely correct to say that he is a complete fraud. The business he is in belongs to the art collection industry, which is recognized by the state.

It’s just that this industry is quite complicated, with too many laymen, and the probability of being deceived is too high, so it can’t be entirely blamed on him.

The reason why scammers are rampant is because there are too many fools. The biggest characteristic of fools is that they think they are smart and are greedy enough.

Honest and decent people will not be fooled by him. Those who can be deceived by him are not completely innocent and they all have some sense of luck.

It is actually logical for such people to suffer losses.”

But Gao Qi disagreed with his view and could not help but refute: "Your idea is that the victim is guilty. If ordinary people are deceived by scammers, should we blame ordinary people for being too stupid? Shouldn't we blame the scammers for being too cunning?"

"Nothing is absolute. Scammers are of course despicable, but victims who try to be clever are not that kind either."

Lu Feng's expression was calm and his tone was as even as water.

Gao Qi thought about it for a while before nodding: "Okay, I admit that what you said is not completely unreasonable, but it is too negative. The only way to solve this kind of problem is to guide it in a positive way, otherwise the situation will only get worse."

"That's true."

Lu Feng looked at her and praised her with a smile: "After all, you are in the system. As long as you adhere to dialectical materialism, there is a possibility that things will get better and better."

"I don't understand any doctrine, I just know how to solve the problem thoroughly."

Gao Qi explained, but was still somewhat happy to be praised.

But after a pause, she asked with some concern: "I don't object to you teaching Wang Guoqiang a lesson, but Wang Shengjie seems to be an okay person. Isn't it a bit too much for you to cheat him like this?"

“Who chased away the old man who came to the office to ask for money that day?”

Lu Feng stopped Gao Qi with just one sentence.

"Ok."

She didn't ask any more questions, but just looked at Lu Feng seriously: "Anyway, no matter what you do, I support you."

But when Lu Feng heard this, he just said calmly: "What I do has nothing to do with you, just take a look and don't make any comments."

"Why doesn't it matter?"

Gao Qi was unhappy: "When you persuaded Wang Guoqiang, weren't you also using me as an endorsement?"

Lu Feng did not deny it, it was indeed true.

But he still didn't want to make things more complicated.

The car had arrived at the destination. Lu Feng paid and got off, and Gao Qi followed.

Glancing in the direction of the club, Lu Feng told Gao Qi: "This method is not clean and will not benefit you."

"Is this another excuse about how being friends with you won't end well?"

Gao Qi looked at him without dodging: "Do you still think that we are not friends?"

Lu Feng was silent, didn't say anything, just walked towards the club.

Gao Qi also followed without saying a word, but he held his head high, with a hint of stubbornness and joy in his eyes.
