Chapter 343 - You’re Asking Me to Be a Social Butterfly?
Acquire?
Gu Qingjiu suffered quite a great shock from this line.
She knew that the Chief Instructor was generous, but she hadn’t expected him to be this generous!
Because from what Gu Qingjiu knew, the Yu family business was quite expansive and difficult to deal with.
However, He Niancheng had so casually said ‘acquire.’
It was as though he could control the fate of the corporation without having to spare much effort.
However, Gu Qingjiu couldn’t fathom how he could do it.
The Yu family that she had deemed difficult to deal with was only an organism as insignificant as an ant in He Niancheng’s eyes.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t know how to reply to that.
It would give her immense pleasure to see the Yu family destroyed—to acquire the Yu family. But then, she didn’t have the capability.
She merely started dating He Niancheng for a few days and to be receiving such a huge gift from him so casually truly spooked her. She was afraid that if there were some accidental changes between her and He Niancheng in the future, she wouldn’t be able to repay him.
Although she had confessed her feelings in the spur of the moment, sometimes when she calmed down and thought about it, she would still think about that remote future.
How far would her relationship with the Chief Instructor go?
She merely kept telling herself to ‘live in the present moment.’ However, the problem facing her at that moment was so real.
She had to face it sooner or later.
The contents of this text message made Gu Qingjiu feel extremely touched, but she couldn’t quite accept this.
If she rejected his help, it would seem like she was letting the Chief Instructor down.
However reluctant, she had to type out word by word.
—Chief Instructor, I don’t wish to reject your kind intentions, but I hope to be able to deal with the Yu family with my own means.
She didn’t receive a reply for a long time, even until the lights were turned off.
She fell asleep feeling baffled.
However, she didn’t know that He Niancheng fell into deep thought after reading her reply.
In the brightly-lit school building, He Niancheng’s lit office was easily ignored.
Next to He Niancheng, Huo Yingcheng was ranting incessantly about the situation of the influences in the capital.
“Major-General, Ye Henyu, that brat has been pampered to the skies by his family since young, and he doesn’t know the ways of the world at all. After you rejected him, he’s been keeping it inside, but he dares not mess with you. He’s just asking you to go for a gathering…”
He had already mentioned this irrelevant person to him several times. A hint of impatience appeared in He Niancheng’s deep eyes. “Just speak your mind.”
“Heh heh, Major-general, I won’t stand on ceremony then.” Huo Yingcheng rubbed his hands together and seemed kind of embarrassed—a rare expression on him. “It’s like this. As you know, some of my family members are businessmen. My uncle has set his sights on China. My uncle wanted me to find a chance to help him find partners here in the capital, now that I’m here.
“My uncle intends for me to set up a company. But I need to find someone influential to help me on the surface. Investor, you get it right? Ye Henyu, this kid has been pampered to the skies by his family and is looking to set up a company too. Moreover, he belongs to the type who is silly and has a lot of money. If I manage to build up a good relationship with him, the investment would be taken care of.
“I was just looking for someone, and he sent himself to me. He knows nothing and is only fooling around with the backing of his family’s connections. But he has the capital!”
Huo Yingcheng spoke in such an agitated manner that his spit nearly came flying out. At a point, he even slapped his thigh vigorously, as though he had considered the scale of his company.
Upon hearing this, He Niancheng’s brows furrowed, and his gaze turned unfriendly. “So, you’re asking me to be a social butterfly?”
