Chapter 249 Don't worry, he will come to me for help
Half an hour later, a black business car stopped at the door of Chen Yile's villa.
The car door opened and a middle-aged man walked out. He was wearing an ill-fitting suit and had a flattering smile on his face, but the shrewdness and cunning in his eyes could not be hidden.
He is the manager of the platform, his surname is Zhang.
Chen Yile stood at the door of the villa, looking at him calmly with a faint smile on his face.
"Manager Zhang, it's been a long time."
Manager Zhang quickly nodded with a smile on his face, saying, "Mr. Chen, no, no, I've heard that you're doing well here. I didn't expect to be able to visit you in person today. It's such an honor."
Chen Yile waved his hand casually, motioning him to come in.
Manager Zhang followed behind him with a smile on his face, but his eyes were looking around at the decoration of the villa, obviously trying to guess Chen Yile's confidence and strength.
The two came to the living room. Chen Yile sat on the sofa and pointed to the seat opposite, indicating Manager Zhang to sit down.
As soon as Manager Zhang sat down, he couldn't wait to speak.
"Teacher Chen, I wonder what instructions you have for me this time? Our platform has always valued high-quality anchors like you, so there is no problem with cooperation."
Chen Yile picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly: "Manager Zhang, I didn't ask you to come here for my own business."
Manager Zhang was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh? Which friend is it about?"
Chen Yile put down the teacup, his eyes gradually became sharper, and his tone became serious.
"It's for Xiao Tao. How do you explain why she paid over a million?"
Manager Zhang's smile froze on his face and he was speechless for a moment.
Chen Yile raised his eyelids, stared at Manager Zhang who was sitting across from him, and asked calmly, "Do you know that threatening someone will result in imprisonment?"
Manager Zhang heard this and a disdainful smile appeared on his face. He crossed his arms over his chest and swayed slightly, as if he didn't care at all. He laughed softly and said, "Brother Chen, you don't have to tell me this. I understand it very well."
Chen Yile nodded, a sneer on his face, "Okay, since you understand, let's see you in court."
Manager Zhang's smile froze on his face, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.
He quickly put on a flattering expression and waved his hands repeatedly: "Hey, hey, hey, Brother Chen, please don't. Let's talk it out. I really don't want to embarrass Xiao Tao."
"It's mainly because the people above are forcing me. You know, Brother Chen, you're so popular now, everyone is watching you."
"If I can't handle you, other platforms will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to snatch you away, and then I won't be able to keep my job."
Chen Yile sneered, crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and spoke slowly.
"What does that have to do with me? What I'm talking about now is you threatening Xiao Tao. It has nothing to do with your work."
Manager Zhang's expression froze for a moment, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He laughed dryly twice, then pleaded in a low voice: "Brother Chen, I really have no choice."
"How about... you consider our platform again? I can negotiate with the higher-ups and get you some more benefits."
Chen Yile's face suddenly turned cold, his eyebrows raised, and he spat out a word coldly: "Get lost."
Manager Zhang was so shocked by this word that his face turned pale. He was stunned for a few seconds, as if he had not yet fully reacted to Chen Yile's attitude.
Then he forced a smile, lowered his head and adjusted his collar to hide his inner embarrassment and uneasiness.
When he stood up, his movements were a little stiff, his face was ashen, and his voice was a little colder: "Since you don't want to help, then forget it. We'll do whatever we have to do next."
Manager Zhang turned around and prepared to leave, but before he reached the door, Chen Yile's calm voice came from behind him: "You are in danger of a bloody disaster. Find a way to resolve it yourself, otherwise you will die."
Manager Zhang's footsteps suddenly stopped, as if his body was pulled by some force.
He stood there frozen, his shoulders shaking slightly.
He turned his head, his face gloomy, his eyes full of confusion and disdain, "Brother Chen, what do you mean by that? You're just talking nonsense. I don't believe it!"
Chen Yile just glanced at him indifferently, tapping his fingers lightly on the table.
"Whether you believe it or not, it has already happened. Let's go. Sooner or later you will find out for yourself."
Manager Zhang frowned, obviously unwilling to stay here for another second.
He walked out of the room without looking back, and slammed the door shut, causing the wall to tremble slightly.
Chen Yile shook his head slightly, took out his cell phone and called Xiaotao.
Xiao Tao's slightly nervous voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother Chen, what's going on? Did he agree not to embarrass me?"
"Don't worry, Xiaotao, that guy will change his mind soon." Chen Yile said lightly, as if he had already expected everything.
Xiao Tao was so grateful that she almost cried: "Thank you, Brother Chen, thank you so much! I don't know how to repay you..."
Chen Yile smiled and said in a gentle voice: "No need to thank me, just wait and see how he begs me."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yile leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
He seemed to be able to foresee what was going to happen next, and just as he expected, it happened not long after.
It was almost three o'clock that afternoon.
The sun was shining brightly outside, but Chen Yile's room seemed unusually quiet, as if shrouded in some invisible atmosphere.
Suddenly, there was a hurried knock on the door, with a hint of panic and urgency.
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen! Please open the door!"
Chen Yile opened his eyes, his brows furrowed slightly. He recognized the voice—Manager Zhang.
He walked to the door and gently pushed it open, only to see Manager Zhang with a pale face, cold sweat on his forehead, and deep fear and despair in his eyes.
Manager Zhang practically threw himself at the door, kneeling down on his trembling knees, his voice filled with anxiety and pleading: "Brother Chen, please help me! I...something happened in my room!"
Chen Yile leaned against the door frame, his hands in his pockets, looking at him expressionlessly, "I told you you were in danger of a bloody disaster. I should have known it earlier. Now you're asking me for help?"
Manager Zhang was shaking all over, his voice tinged with tears: "Brother Chen, I really can't hold on any longer!"
"Ever since I left, I've felt something's not right when I return to the company."
"It's always freezing cold in the office. Even when the sun is shining brightly, I feel like I'm in an ice cellar!"
"The scariest thing is that every night, I can hear a woman crying... Her voice is so miserable that it drives me crazy. I can't sleep at all!"
He raised his head, his face was as pale as a sheet and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Brother Chen, I'm really going crazy, please help me! As long as you are willing to help me solve it, I... I am willing to pay one million and never embarrass Xiao Tao again!"
Chen Yile looked down at Manager Zhang who was kneeling on the ground and was silent for a moment.
