BXBX NOVEL Chapter 408 - I’m Really Rich!
Chapter 408: I’m Really Rich!
Xue Xi: “Eight.”
It was already past 7 PM, so it was definitely too late.
Qian Zheng replied dejectedly: “Why didn’t you say so earlier? Sigh, did you meet Gu Yunqing?”
Xue Xi: “Mhm.”
Qian Zheng was instantly on steroids. “Sister Xi, that person is fake. Don’t like her. You have to like me more.”
Xue Xi: “...”
Why did it sound like she was competing for her favor?
The corners of her lips twitched as she replied: “I don’t like her.”
Qian Zheng: “Okay, okay. Am I still your little cutie?”
Little cutie?
Xue Xi pursed her lips and suppressed her smile. She replied: “Yes.”
When she sent the message, Xie Yingying and Li Zixia joked, “She must have sent a message to Instructor Xiang. Look, she’s smiling. Hurry up and show us what you’re sending!”
When Li Zixia looked over, Xue Xi had coincidentally changed Qian Zheng’s contact to “Little Cutie.”
When the two of them saw the words “little cutie,” they instantly looked at each other and smiled. They rubbed their arms. “Sister Xi, you’re so mushy. Moreover, I didn’t expect Instructor Xiang to have such a hobby! Hahahaha...”
Xue Xi slowly lifted her head and looked at the two of them in confusion. Her head was filled with question marks: “?”
Xie Yingying hurriedly shot Li Zixia a glance. “Stop it. Sister Xi is going to fly into a rage out of humiliation.”
Li Zixia nodded and obediently made a zipping motion on her lips, indicating that she would not speak.
Xie Yingying started to change the topic. “Other than Qian Zheng, is there no one else who can control Gu Yunqing?”
Li Zixia instantly smiled. “How can that be? We’re talking about the business world, but no matter how formidable someone in the business world is... Do you understand? The wealthy families and aristocrats in the capital are not simple characters.”
Xie Yingying seemed to understand, but Li Zixia could not explain it clearly.
Xie Yingying started changing the topic. “The Qian family is the owner of the God of Fortune Group, right? Isn’t this name too tacky and straightforward?”
Li Zixia smiled. “No, the Qian family’s corporation is called the Dingsheng Group. The Dingsheng Group and the Gu family’s corporation can compete with each other on the surface. However, everyone knows that the Gu family is actually inferior to the Qian family because the Qian family still has many other companies that they have given to others. Some of them are gifts, while others are just in name. Anyway, if the Dingsheng Group is in trouble, those companies will definitely not stand by and do nothing! No one knows which company those companies belong to, so the Qian family chose the name of the God of Fortune.”
Xie Yingying was enlightened. “It sounds like the Qian family is really formidable.”
Li Zixia nodded. She did not spread this gossip to Xie Yingying anymore. Instead, she stared at the people around her to prevent them from suddenly finding trouble with Sister Xi.
Fortunately, no one came to the banquet until the end.
Li Zixia heaved a sigh of relief and sent them away safely. When she personally sent Gu Yunqing out, Gu Yunqing tidied her hair and looked very noble while holding her dress. However, her words made Li Zixia feel aggrieved. “Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for your classmate. After all, a family with tens of millions of assets is not worth my attention. However, Li Zixia, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but your taste is too poor. Why are all the cats and dogs allowed to attend your birthday banquet? If this happens again, I won’t come anymore.”
Li Zixia: “!!!”
She was pricking Gu Yunqing’s little effigy with a needle in her heart, but she forced a smile and said, “Thank you so much for being so generous.”
As someone from a wealthy family, she was not a reckless person. She would not fall out with Gu Yunqing and make things difficult for her family.
Gu Yunqing looked at her. “It’s too cheap to argue with her.”
She left after saying this.
After Gu Yunqing left, Li Zixia returned to the lounge with a smile. Just as she entered, Gu Peng came over and passed her a stuffed toy.
Li Zixia punched the toy fiercely to vent her anger.
Gu Peng watched from the side with a doting gaze.
Xiao Xia was as cute as ever when she flared up.
After Li Zixia had extinguished the fire, she said to Gu Peng, “Don’t tell Sister Xi what she said just now, lest she gets sad.”
Gu Peng: “...Does she have the word sad in her dictionary?”
Li Zixia: “You’re right. Sister Xi is so powerful! Ah, I’m going to send Sister Xi out!”
After saying that, she hurriedly left, leaving Gu Peng alone in the room. He looked lonely and had a hint of resentment on his face.
Before Xue Xi existed, Xiao Xia, you didn’t treat me like this!
He really wanted to lock Xiao Xia’s head in place and make her stare at him! How... infuriating!
...
At this moment, the Li family’s parents were also sending Ye Li and her husband out.
They had long known about what had happened at the banquet and felt that Gu Yunqing had made Xue Xi feel aggrieved. Hence, they said to Ye Li and Xue Sheng, “Since we already know each other, we can be considered good friends. Your company has just been established. If you need any help, just ask.”
Xue Sheng did not look like he was being looked down upon. He nodded. “Not for the time being, but with CEO Li’s words, I really won’t stand on ceremony!”
CEO Li burst out laughing.
What they heard was that Ye Li had married a nouveau riche who did not have high academic qualifications and who relied on unorthodox means to make a fortune. However, they did not expect Xue Sheng to not look lowly at all. His tone was neither servile nor overbearing, making one feel comfortable.
CEO Li decided to offer him help again. He immediately said, “I know someone from the bank. If you need a loan, you can look for me.”
Xue Sheng: “...Really.”
He did not have money, but his daughter did!
He had used less than 100 million of the one billion yuan in the card to solve the problem of the company’s relocation.
CEO Li lowered his voice. “I know that a pharmaceutical factory is very difficult. The investment during the early stages of research and development is a bottomless pit. No matter how much money we have, it won’t be enough.”
Xue Sheng: “...It’s not too bad, not too bad.”
The most difficult part of the research and development was the nerve acid. His daughter had settled it and completely solved the problem. Now, their company was doing something big.
It took a lot of time and procedures for a drug to appear.
For example, the live-body experiment needed to be done in two or three stages. They’d used half a year to control the formula for the treatment of the mental disease. Now, they were only waiting for the fourth stage of the live-body experiment to be completed before they could apply for a patent and mass-produce it.
He was waiting to make a fortune, but why were these people looking at him with pity as though he was going bankrupt tomorrow?
...
At this moment, Gu Yunqing was on his way home.
She felt that it would be a disgrace to argue with a small family. It was better to let Qian Zheng do this.
Just as she was thinking this, her phone rang. Qian Zheng had finally replied to her.
Gu Yunqing smiled. Qian Zheng must be very angry, right? She wanted to see what Qian Zheng said.
