However… looking at the mess in the Hundred Herb Hall, Ding Hao was a little confused.
“What… What happened? What happened?”
Gu Qingchen was also a little surprised by Ding Hao’s sudden visit, but she was just surprised.
“Something happened. How did you find this place?”
Ding Hao was a little hesitant. He looked around and thought for a while, but he still said, “Ms. Gu, I shouldn’t have bothered you since you have your own trouble, but I’m really desperate here. I hope you can help me this time.”
Gu Qingchen stared at Ding Hao for a long time. She understood everything from Ding Hao’s mind.
Well, she had expected that Ding Hao would finally come one day.
“Mr. Ding, you’re too polite. Just tell me how I can help you. If I can help, I won’t just sit by and do nothing.”
Gu Qingchen did not make a move. Ding Hao came to her. She was looking forward to what Ding Hao would say.
She had prepared everything for Paradise and hired many professionals. With Xiang Yang helping her father, she could still hold on.
But she still needed one experienced person who could watch over them.
The day Gu Qingchen wanted to open a jade shop, she had thought of recruiting Ding Hao. Although she had approached Ding Hao after that, Ding Hao never relented and wanted to come over.
It seemed that he really couldn’t stand it this time.
Ding Hao hesitated for a while before saying, “This matter… sigh, I really can’t say it. I wouldn’t have come to you if I didn’t have nowhere else to go.”
“I know what you mean. Since you’re here, you can just tell me what you need.”
Ding Hao nodded and said, “I heard your jade shop is about to open, and you will prepare some raw stones to cut that day.”
Gu Qingchen had never hidden this, and many people knew about it.
“Yup, that’s the plan. Do you want to buy one?”
“I… I do want to buy it, but… sigh, I’ll just say it. Ms. Gu, I hope you can choose the most special jade for me, but I don’t have that much money, so I’m afraid I can’t afford it.”
Ding Hao lowered his head in embarrassment.
Gu Qingchen was not surprised at all because she had already read it in Ding Hao’s mind.
“Haha, Mr. Ding, we know each other really well and have worked together a few times, but I’m a businessman. I can’t do a business that brings no benefit to me. It can even be said that I will lose money. Also, I’ve already given you a piece of expensive jade to appreciate your help. Did you think I like to give away my jade to the others?”
Gu Qingchen was a typical businessman. Even if she had given Ding Hao a piece of expensive jade, she had her own motives.
Ding Hao heard Gu Qingchen’s words and was instantly ashamed. He knew that his words were nonsense, and it could even be said that he was a little shameless.
But… he really had no other choice.
“Sigh, to tell you the truth, I really had no other choice. That’s why I decided to look for you.”
In fact, Ding Hao had looked for Gu Qingchen before. At that time, they had some discussions. If Ding Hao accepted Gu Qingchen’s offer, Gu Qingchen would help Ding Hao with the matter of Master Gong’s jade.
But later, Ding Hao regretted it. He felt that he had worked hard for so many years, but in the end, he had achieved nothing and still had to work for Gu Qingchen. He was a little unwilling.
So, he had broken his promise.
But at that time, Gu Qingchen did not fall out with him because of this. Today, Ding Hao decided to make a change and put down his ego, so he thickened his skin and came to look for Gu Qingchen.
This time, he had made up his mind, and he really could not hold on anymore.
He also knew that what he asked was an unfair transaction, but this was his last try. If it did not work out, he could only choose another path.
“Ms. Gu, I know my previous capriciousness caused you trouble. I came here today hoping that you could give me another chance. I will definitely not change my mind this time, and I hope you can help me this time.”
Gu Qingchen had not spoken all this time. The atmosphere was a little tense. Ding Hao could only wait for Gu Qingchen to speak. After a long while, Gu Qingchen finally spoke.
“Although I am a businessman, I am also a person who cherishes friendships. Since you have gone all out to ask for help, I will give you a hand. From today onwards, you are no longer the boss of Ding Jewelry but my subordinate.”
Ding Hao quickly nodded. Although he wanted his own family business, he needed to secure his livelihood first.
Ding Hao promised to give Master Gong a top-tier jade, but it definitely did not meet Master Gong’s requirements. Gu Qingchen was prepared to help Ding Hao, but he regretted it at the last minute, so this matter was dragged on.
However, Master Gong’s wife was sick. Master Gong felt that a good jadeite had the effect of warding off evil spirits and disasters, so he urged Ding Hao to quickly prepare a good jadeite.
This time, he could not delay it even if he wanted to, so he could only make up his mind to look for Gu Qingchen.
“I will agree to help you, but there is one thing I need you to do.”
Ding Hao felt relieved after receiving Gu Qingchen’s help. He was even willing to do ten things for Gu Qingchen.
“Ms. Gu, please go ahead.”
Gu Qingchen told Ding Hao what she asked him to do. Although Ding Hao only hesitated for a moment, he quickly agreed.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Gu. I’ll do it right away, but… I’m not sure when they will reply.”
Gu Qingchen nodded. “It’s okay. You just need to contact them.”
She asked Ding Hao to contact Master Gong. She needed to see Master Gong.
However, Master Gong was not someone she could just meet if she wanted. She needed a middleman.
She had thought of asking Rong Yu for help before, but she did not expect Ding Hao to come to her. It saved her a lot of trouble.
As for Ding Hao, Gu Qingchen asked Ding Hao to go to Paradise to help. She would be more at ease with an experienced person like him.
Soon, Gu Yi and the others returned and brought Doctor Hua back.
“Master, how are you? Did they make things difficult for you?” Gu Qingchen was relieved to see that Doctor Hua was not injured.
When Doctor Hua saw Gu Qingchen, he was stunned. He looked at Gu Qingchen strangely.
“Where did she come from? Why does she have these foreign mercenaries? Could she be…”
Gu Qingchen frowned slightly. Doctor Hua stopped thinking and did not continue thinking.
