Chapter 39 Li Wei remembers his third-in-command
Hey buddy! Didn't you go home last night?
Upon meeting at the bar entrance, Wesker didn't immediately bow down to Tessa. Instead, he approached Levi with a lewd smile and asked him this question.
"Yes, I had a blast playing with that megaphone toy for six hours straight yesterday at the hotel. But I'm tired of it now, so I just left it at the hotel and didn't bother with it."
Wesker's face immediately showed disappointment.
"this one?"
Wesker then ignored the proud Levi and went straight to Tessa, acting like a doorman, to ask if Tessa needed parking.
"Hey! Wesker! Mind your place!"
Li Wei felt that his worries from when he came were about to come true.
But Wesker didn't feel ashamed at all. Instead, he bent down to take the keys first, and then shouted at Levi with disdain.
"If you also deposit ten million into my account, I can park your car. Even more so, if Miss Hamilton is willing to add another ten million, I'd be willing to support her as the new leader of the Levi's Gang!"
Although Levi didn't care much about the "Levi Gang," an organization that started with "stirring things up" and "making trouble," Wesker's shameless behavior still made him very unhappy.
It's like someone who wasn't planning to buy sugarcane is hesitating about whether to buy it, and then someone suddenly comes over to ask about the price. This person will feel like the person asking about the price is trying to steal their sugarcane.
"Wesker! I swear! If you dare to hand over your second-in-command position to Tessa without my permission, I'll kick your ass with my military boots!"
But Levi's threat seemed to remind Wesker instead.
Wesker, who had already climbed into the car, suddenly stuck his head out.
"Dear and beautiful Miss Hamilton! Five million! The second-in-command of the Levi gang! Are you interested?"
"Hey! You fucking..."
Li Wei had just started the transaction when it was over.
"Was the money deposited into the gang's 'public account' or your personal 'private account'?"
"Li Wei doesn't have a public account at the moment, so you can transfer the money directly to my personal account."
"OK."
After finishing her sentence, Tessa made a phone call right in front of Levi.
When she walked up to Li Wei, she put her thumbs in her jeans pockets, tilted her head, and smiled at him.
"What? I got a 'promotion,' aren't you going to congratulate me?"
Instead of resorting to insults or physical violence, Li Wei took out his phone and changed Tessa's contact name from "old woman" to "despicable and wealthy second-in-command old woman".
Then, without saying a word, he walked toward the bar door.
Seeing all this with her own eyes, Tessa wasn't angry at all. Instead, she excitedly stuck out her pink tongue and gently licked her lips.
After all, her methods were indeed despicable, and she did indeed possess a large amount of wealth. She had just been promoted to second-in-command and was ten years older than Li Wei.
Li Wei's behavior may have been emotional, but his assessment was objective.
And when she succeeds, her happiness will multiply many times over!
Hmm... what name should I choose for the baby?
Tessa couldn't help but immerse herself in her "happy troubles".
When he caught up with Levi and entered the bar, he saw Danielle lying on a single sofa, drooling and taking a nap.
Meanwhile, Levi kept pestering Antonio, wanting to play a game of dominoes.
"What do you mean you're tired? It's almost 11 o'clock now, and I kept my promise not to bother you before 10!"
"Li Wei, please put your hand on your heart and answer my question again. If you weren't bothering me, why would I arrive so punctually? Normally, I should have just gotten up, washed up, and been enjoying breakfast by now. What do you think?"
"It was Tessa who called you, not me. I'm telling you honestly, if you don't want to play dominoes, I can teach you 'mahjong.' I swear, it's way more fun than dominoes!"
At that moment, Wesker, who had parked his car, also came in.
"Hey! Danielle! I won't allow you to drool on my bar floor! Get up and clean it up right now! Otherwise, I'll put up a 'Danielle Harris Not Allowed' sign on the door from now on!"
Danielle heard someone angrily shouting her full name and immediately stood up abruptly.
"Sorry, Chief! Although I worked overtime all night yesterday, I shouldn't have fallen asleep during the meeting! I'll go back to my desk... Wait, I'm on vacation today! I must be dreaming!"
After saying that, Danielle curled up back on the sofa and went back to sleep.
This time they went too far; she not only drooled, but also snored…
This bustling and chaotic scene "awakened" Tessa from her own world.
After looking around, she felt that as the new second-in-command and the future "boss's wife," she had the right and the need to control the situation.
"Slap! Slap!"
Tessa clapped her hands to attract everyone's attention before she spoke.
"Li Wei, you agreed to talk about business first before we came out, so can you give me thirty minutes?"
After carefully recalling the events and confirming that he had indeed promised Tessa, Li Wei stopped bothering Antonio and went to the bar to find a set of paper and pen. He prepared to tear off strips of paper and make a mahjong set to play later.
"Antonio, I'm sorry to disturb your rest. But the situation in Miami is only temporary. We must get things under control before things get out of control, at least to let those people know what they're supposed to do."
Antonio showed no displeasure; instead, he cast a slightly grateful glance at Tessa—after all, Tessa had helped him get rid of Levi's entanglement.
"Daniel, wake up. If you can't stay awake, go home and get some sleep. I'll let you know the results later."
Danielle, half-asleep, suddenly sat up—she had come here to prevent the "Levy Gang," a group of unreliable people, from causing any more trouble, so how could she possibly go back to sleep?
"Wesker, this is your territory. But don't forget, this is also a stronghold of the Levi Gang."
When the sponsor spoke, Wesker didn't hesitate and picked up a mop to wipe away Danielle's drool.
Then he found a seat, took out a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and pretended to put them on... He even took out a laptop, looking like he was preparing for a meeting and taking notes.
Seeing that everyone did as instructed, Tessa secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
None of these guys were easy to deal with, but fortunately, her strategy of bringing up Levi first worked.
Whether it's giving Li Wei face, giving her face personally, or giving money face... in any case, these people have now reached a point where they can sit down and talk things over.
"Alright, if there are no problems, let's begin."
But at that moment, Li Wei suddenly raised his hand.
"I have a question!"
Tesa was helpless.
"Thirty minutes, it'll be over quickly. After the meeting, teach me how to play mahjong, and I'll play with you."
Li Wei shook his head.
"I'm not in a rush to play, but I'm missing one person."
Tessa paused for a moment, but quickly said a name, albeit somewhat uncertainly.
"Thomas Gallard?"
Li Wei nodded seriously.
"Yes, he is the third-in-command of Li Weibang, and I think he should be invited to this kind of formal meeting."
Tessa's expression was somewhat strange.
"So... Galad is really just the third-in-command of Levi's gang, and not the 'boss' behind the scenes?"
After Li Wei nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world, Tessa realized that she had underestimated Li Wei after all.
This man... wants it even more now.
Li Wei, completely unaware, took out his phone and made a video call.
