Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 185 185 [Blackmail]

Gong Guoyan understood what Luo Qihong meant. It was nothing more than a pre-arranged agreement among everyone. If the detective played tricks, all the previous efforts would be wasted.

"Don't worry, Luo Sheng. I will take care of these things. It won't hinder you and Li Qiqi from living together happily."

Gong Guoyan felt very disappointed and wanted to beat up Luo Qihong immediately, or even kill him on the spot to relieve his anger.

Luo Qihong smiled and didn't continue talking.

The two sat in silence for several minutes, and then Gong Guoyan stood up and said goodbye.

Looking at the figure behind the message, Luo Qihong sneered, "He's nothing but a hypocrite. His wife cheated on him, but he can only bark a few times and doesn't even dare to fart. What future can he have?"

Of course, Luo Qihong also thought of the possibility that Gong Guoyan would play tricks on the cooperation project, and he did not expect Gong Guoyan to keep swallowing his anger, so when the cooperation project showed signs of improvement, he would take action immediately and not give Gong Guoyan the opportunity to turn the table.

At night, Kowloon Hotel, Tsim Sha Tsui
Li Qiqi was wearing a white bathrobe, sitting horizontally on Luo Qihong's body. The big bear inside was faintly visible, and seemed to be whiter than the bathrobe, making people want to kiss it a few times.

"You don't know, I was almost scared to death when Gong Guoyan took out those photos. I thought he was going to beat me to death." Li Qiqi said with lingering fear. Although her expression was a little artificial, a small part of it was real.

Luo Qihong pushed Li Qiqi's hair back from her chest and sighed, "Who would have thought that Gong Guoyan would hire two detective agencies? He must have thought that the first detective agency would be exposed, so he arranged a second one for the sake of caution."

"Huh! That old guy is so cunning that he actually started us off." Li Qiqi said with a pout.

Li Qiqi is two years older than Luo Qihong, but there seems to be no sense of incongruity when she lies in Luo Qihong's arms and acts coquettishly. It may be that this woman knows how to take care of herself and how to capture a man's heart.

"Gong Guoyan must have blackmailed you for something, right? Otherwise, why would he divorce you so readily?" Li Qiqi asked, looking at Luo Qihong's profile.

So, Luo Qihong told Li Qiqi about the cooperation plan with Gong Guoyan, of course, including the distribution ratio.

"No wonder he is so kind, it turns out he got a huge benefit from you." Li Qiqi said with a flat mouth, "Gong Guoyan wanted to enter the European market a long time ago, but unfortunately he didn't have enough funds at that time to set up multiple offices, so he had to give up."

Luo Qihong stretched out his hand to explore Li Qiqi from top to bottom, and said calmly, "Actually, this is a win-win situation. It is also good for Hexiang Trading Company. I'm just afraid that Gong Guoyan will start to play tricks once he gets what he wants."

"You still have to be careful. Gong Guoyan is a very sinister person. His former partner was outed because of him." Li Qiqi reminded.

She was also worried that Luo Qihong would suffer a loss at the hands of Gong Guoyan. The key point was that the feud between the two was caused by her. If Luo Qihong blamed her for the loss, wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Although Li Qiqi has some abilities, he doesn't think he can stand out in Hong Kong, which is full of eccentrics. So he wants to ride on Luo Qihong's coattails so that he won't have to worry about his good future.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Luo Qihong looked at Li Qiqi with amusement, with a feeling of being serious and joking at the same time.

Li Qiqi looked left and right, pretending to be serious and said, "He doesn't look like a fool, he looks like an idiot."

Luo Qihong grabbed the big bear on his chest with a wicked smile. Li Qiqi felt a little pain and slapped the back of Luo Qihong's hand coquettishly.

He picked up Li Qiqi, threw her back on the bed, and then pressed on her, saying viciously, "You dare to say bad things about me, and I won't let you go if you don't beg for mercy later."

Li Qiqi smiled charmingly, drawing circles on Luo Qihong's chest with her fingers, "Haven't you heard that 'there are no fields that can be plowed to death, but only cows that are tired to death'?"

Such words naturally aroused the men's desire to win, and so the battle began.

Li Qiqi's laughter echoed in the room, and it seemed to contain some pain.

the next afternoon
Luo Qihong, who was in charge of Zhaoan Real Estate Company, received a strange phone call.

Originally, the secretary would filter out unfamiliar calls, but the man claimed to be a reporter and had information about Luo Qihong's scandal, so the secretary couldn't help but believe it. "Okay, pick it up!" Luo Qihong said in a deep voice.

"Hello, Mr. Luo! I think your secretary has already told you what's going on. So I won't beat around the bush. How about a flat price of one million?" A man's voice came from the other end of the phone, very deep.

Luo Qihong sneered, "You are blackmailing me like this, aren't you afraid of my revenge?"

"Hahaha!! Luo Sheng is a business tycoon, and I'm just an ordinary citizen. Of course I'm afraid, but I'm more afraid of being poor."

"Giving you 1 million is not a problem, but how can you guarantee that this matter will be resolved? What if you use this scandal to blackmail me again? I can't always be your ATM." Luo Qihong was very clear-headed.

He knew that these people had no bottom line and would continue to threaten and blackmail him without stopping, so he did not intend to give him any money.

"Luo Sheng is indeed a businessman. What you said might be true. Why not buy it out in one go? 2 million!"

Hearing this, Luo Qihong couldn't help but laugh, "Ah Sheng, do you know that 2 million is more than enough to buy the lives of your entire family? Who do you think I can't find you?"

"Luo Sheng, your joke is not funny at all. Please don't threaten me, or I will leak your gossip for free."

"Haha!! Then go ahead and tell me the truth. I will find you and make sure you can't survive in Hong Kong." Luo Qihong didn't take the matter to heart for the moment, because the person involved, Gong Guoyan, had been dealt with, and the influence of the scandal could be minimized.

Using money to stop this matter now would be tantamount to being a fool, and the reporter might not dare to disclose the information.

"I've told you, Luo Sheng, don't threaten me. I don't believe these rumors have no impact on your company."

"It does have an impact, but I have already reached an agreement with Gong Guoyan, and Li Qiqi has already agreed to divorce Gong Guoyan. I'm afraid your revelations won't have much effect." Luo Qihong said with a faint smile.

"." There was silence on the other end, and then a busy tone sounded.

Apparently the other party hung up the phone.

"Hmph! It seems that the paparazzi have started to take action. Disaster has come to Hong Kong's wealthy people." Luo Qihong shook his head helplessly. He is also one of Hong Kong's wealthy people. There may be a lot of gossip reports about him in the future.

morning of the second day

Three magazines reported the news that Luo Qihong had an affair with a married woman, Gong Li Qiqi, in a Kowloon Hotel, and attached several clear photos.

This makes entertainment news absolutely credible and satisfies the curiosity of the citizens.

Luo Qihong immediately called Gong Guoyan and asked him to clarify that he and Li Qiqi had agreed to divorce, and asked him to move the signing date of the agreement forward by half a month, so as to minimize the impact of the scandal.

Luo Qihong also held a personal press conference to clarify that when he was dating Li Qiqi, Li Qiqi was already a free person and had divorced Gong Guoyan, and there was no such thing as seducing a married woman.

Some reporters also raised questions, suspecting that Luo Qihong had bribed Gong Guoyan.

Luo Qihong asked the reporter with a stern face to produce evidence, otherwise it would be defamation and he could sue the reporter.

The reporter was so frightened that he quickly apologized and explained that this was just a guess, not slander.

With the mutual clarifications from Li Qiqi and Gong Guoyan, the impact of the incident began to decrease, and the listed companies under its umbrella did not experience a sharp drop, but only a small decline, which soon became stuck at a certain price.
