Gu Chen was once a big shot at the Transmigration Bureau. After experiencing 999 different worlds, he finally got to retire.
He chose to return to a peaceful life and be an ordinary, unremark...
Chapter 37
They had returned to the bedroom area. Looking at the neatly laid out double bed that had not been slept in for a long time, it was self-evident what Li Tingqin meant.
Gu Chen looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window: "It's quite spacious here..." He paused.
Li Tingqin only saw the young man in front of him, who was in a leisurely and calm manner, smiling and saying, "...That's fine."
"After all, I'm used to sleeping in your bed, Mr. Li." Gu Chen stroked the soft silk bedding with the back of his left hand, and the wedding ring on his ring finger left an obvious indentation on it.
Li Tingqin lowered his eyes to look at the movements of his hands and whispered, "What do you mean?"
Then, he noticed that Gu Chen's thin lips raised a slight arc, and he answered him: "In the old house, this can also be regarded as sharing Mr. Li's space, right?"
After getting this answer, Li Tingqin's Adam's apple rolled subconsciously.
The room in the old house was completely different from the long-term vacancy of the villa. It was the space where I lived for a long time when I was young, and it was more private. But when Ah Chen lived in the old house, he actually slept in his own bed for many nights...
He himself had overlooked the fact that he was married. Li Tingqin looked at him with a slightly deeper gaze and said, "That's good."
"My mattresses are specially customized according to my habits. If you don't like it, ask this company to customize it again."
Gu Chen said: "No need, actually Mr. Li, your mattress is already very comfortable, I'm used to it."
Li Tingqin took a deep breath. He was going abroad tonight, so he decided to stop talking about this topic. He said in a calm tone, "Okay then, Ah Chen, when I video chat with you in the evening, I hope to see you in this bed."
Gu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Okay."
In fact, it was already late after flying from D City Film and Television City to H City and then entering the mountains, and Li Tingqin had no way of staying for long. After all, it would take time to get out of the mountains.
But before leaving, Li Tingqin still arranged another 5 million "pocket money" for Gu Chen, saying: "Ah Chen, use it to do something you like, and don't spend it on other things."
Although 61 million had been transferred in the previous month, Li Tingqin knew very well that Ah Chen had never really used the money as pocket money. The bulk of the 50 million was just to help his sister invest. For the Li family, it was just a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other.
The only thing that interested me was that I spent hundreds of thousands to forge a few swords, but I had no place to put them, so I was forced to put them in the utility room.
"Ah Chen, as long as you like, it's okay to turn this villa into an armory."
Gu Chen: “…” Please explain it.
He sighed: "Boss Li, I really don't like this. For me, these things are just useful."
In his eyes, items have returned to their use attributes, just like his sports watch, although it costs hundreds of dollars, but as long as it has the functions he needs, it is enough. Seven swords, of various types, are enough. If there are too many, it will become a arsenal and become a burden.
So...it seems like he doesn't have anything he particularly likes?
Gu Chen smiled and said, "These things may not be as interesting as fencing with you." For him, life experience is more important than owning objects.
Li Tingqin seemed to understand something, nodded, and said, "Okay, Ah Chen, wait for me to return to China. It shouldn't be too long."
Li Tingqin went abroad, and Gu Chen returned to his regular and leisurely life.
But at this time, the Internet was filled with grief.
[That’s it? That’s it? You still dare to call yourselves paparazzi? How come you are becoming more and more useless?]
[Last time I was able to capture the back of the car, but this time all I can see is the dark car, right? ]
[Why did the fans chase the car? It's so dangerous. ]
Paparazzi: “…” No, can you guys please find the key point?
But he couldn't mention the names of the CEOs directly, so he had to retweet the Weibo post with a reserved tone, saying: [I didn't believe it last time, so I went to verify it.]
[What the hell?! I was wondering why the mysterious teacher's fans are all elderly people, and then I zoomed in on the picture and saw that there were a bunch of luxury cars chasing and blocking him. What was that for?]
【!!! Is it really the wealthy man who came to visit the Immortal Master? ! 】
[I said you really made it difficult for us fans. You know how difficult it is for us to recognize these old guys! ]
[Mr. Zhao, Mr. Sun, Mr. Zhou... you're welcome~]
[Oh my god! I searched and found that these people could have sat down and held a business meeting right there, but that one person was nowhere to be seen?]
[It also shows, to some extent, how awesome the young lady is! ]
[The old men jogging after the car is really funny, hahahaha]
"Mr. Zhao, a paparazzi took a picture of you going to the film and television city and posted it online, misleading netizens into thinking that you were going to visit an immortal master?"
After all, the industry is related to the entertainment industry, and Mr. Zhao noticed the relevant public opinion at the first time.
"Do you need clarification?"
President Zhao took a look at the screen his assistant handed over, and his expression was just like an old man on the subway looking at his phone. He stuffed the phone back into his assistant's pocket and said unhappily, "What clarification? Are you going to let all netizens in the country know that I went to apologize to Li Tingqin? You guys have really made me lose face!"
The assistant said, "Okay, then let the netizens think you are going to visit the Immortal Master?"
The assistant was waiting for his further instructions. He looked at the video of him jogging on the assistant's phone, which was still playing in a loop. He angrily said, "Isn't this embarrassing? Why don't you delete it for me?"
The assistant nodded: "Okay, Mr. Zhao."
Mr. Zhao covered his chest and sighed, "Alas, I have been really unlucky recently. I should go find a master to have a good fortune telling..."
The assistant speculated, "Boss Zhao, what I'm saying is... is there a possibility that the one the Li family's eldest daughter invited is a true master? That's why the Li family has always been so prosperous?"
"And I think that the fact that the eldest daughter of the Li family is in the entertainment industry is such a small matter that it is not enough for President Li to put aside the important matters abroad and return to China in such a hurry. President Li must have other very important reasons for returning to China."
"Look, we clearly saw Assistant Chen in that car, but the paparazzi said it was the car of the mysterious teacher. This can only mean that President Li went to meet the mysterious teacher and got in that teacher's car."
Mr. Zhao was stunned by his analysis. Finally, he thought about it and connected the logic. He said, "Now that you put it that way... it seems to make some sense. What about that mysterious teacher? We can go visit him..."
The assistant sighed and said, "Didn't we miss the car this morning?"
Mr. Zhao: “…” What’s the point of saying so much!
"Delete, delete, delete! Go and delete it for me!"
Mr. Zhao is deleting it, Mr. Sun is deleting it, Mr. Zhou is deleting it...
They didn't want to explain anything. After all, meeting the Immortal Master was always more polite than meeting Li, so they just deleted it and got the matter over with.
As a result, netizens discovered that this time the "mysterious power" was even more terrifying than the last time. Related discussions disappeared on a large scale, and the photos and videos that were circulated were deleted everywhere...
[Oh my god... That teacher is the God of 404...]
But before the paparazzi ran away, he still said: [I heard that Xie Jingyuan's scenes have been completed, and that person should retire again...]
[Ahhhh no! Did the gods just come down to earth for a few minutes? ]
[So the public opinion field was completely silent, and the large-scale 404 formation was just to send that teacher into seclusion again? This top-notch arrangement is shocking...]
[This reminds me of my Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu was like this when he disappeared. He was so mysterious that we can’t even mention him…]
[And that unlucky program crew really followed that rule. After deducting one day, they deducted one week, and after deducting one week, they deducted one month. Mu Yunting and his wife took leave, and the two professors also took leave. Chen Yuan went to play games, and Lin Yisu also quit. Then Du Ruiqing failed, and Qiao Kunping quit... It was directly deducted until the end of time and it was postponed indefinitely hahahaha... We are afraid that we will never see Mr. Gu again. Wuwuwu... It feels like your situation...]
[Fuck!!! It’s your business whether you can see your Mr. Gu or not, don’t curse us!!!]
[Hehehe, at least we are better than you in one aspect, that is, Miss's movie will be released sooner or later, and there will be a chance to see her on the big screen again~ Then you will know how amazing she is~]
[Wow, this is really only for young ladies. I can only look forward to the movie...]
【Looking forward to the movie! 】
…
Because it was deleted in time, the legend of the mysterious teacher did not spread to Boss Li Jiashu, who was actively starting a business and working seriously.
As the country has attached increasing importance to environmental protection in recent years, and the team that Li Jiashu brought back from abroad has mastered relevant core technologies, the company has had a good upward momentum after opening.
During the spring recruitment period, this start-up company also opened up some positions for recruitment. Because the company is not large at the moment, Li Jiashu was also one of the interviewers during the final interview.
Li Jiashu met several people and felt that they were not doing well. He picked up the cup and was drinking water. When he saw Yun Zhou coming in, he choked: "Ahem! Are you Xiaoyun? Did you go to the wrong place?"
Yun Zhou said seriously, "I didn't go the wrong way. I've already passed the first and second sides."
Li Jiashu said: "No, I mean, why are you here? Aren't you going to your family's company?"
Yun Zhou continued in a serious tone, "Oh, my family is going to go bankrupt soon. I will graduate this year. What's wrong with me participating in the spring recruitment and finding a job?"
Li Jiashu: “…” I always feel like there’s something wrong, but it’s impossible to ask someone on the spot why their family went bankrupt, right?
Yun Zhou said: "Boss Li, let's get started. I think you will find my resume appealing."
Li Jiashu shuddered when he heard the title of Mr. Li, but he still cleared his throat and started asking questions as usual.
Yunzhou is indeed very good in this regard and answered all the professional knowledge one by one.
After the interview, Li Jiashu said, "Okay, Mr. Yun, please go back and wait for notification."
Yun Zhou stared at Li Jiashu and said, "Wait, you guys won't admit me, is there some unspoken rule?"
Li Jiashu: “…”
He stood up and said, "You guys go ahead, I'll go out for a while."
Taking Yun Zhou to his office, Li Jiashu said, "Tell me, what do you want?"
Yun Zhou shyly went straight to the point and said, "Mr. Li, are you interested in marrying into the Yun family..." Compared to being completely unfamiliar with Li Tingqin, he and Li Jiashu were elementary school classmates and they were friends who liked each other's posts on WeChat Moments.
It’s not okay that Mr. Li over there is married, because there is still a Mr. Li here.
Li Jiashu was so frightened that he took three steps back. First, the title of Mr. Li was too scary to be used on him. Second, his elementary school classmate came to him to look for a job and even asked for marriage. Third, this elementary school classmate was a boy.
Li Jiashu said: "I'm not gay either! And don't call me Mr. Li anymore, just call me Boss Li, Second Young Master Xiao Jia, or Xiao Shu!!"
Yun Zhou was immediately disappointed and said, "Well, you're not gay, but your brother is. Forget it, I deserve to die for harassing straight men."
He thought for a moment, blinked, and then said, "Is there anyone in your family who needs a marriage?"
Li Jiashu was speechless: "...What happened to the Yun family that made you go crazy like this?"
Yun Zhou said, "Is it possible that I fell in love at first sight with a handsome man? Your brother, your sister-in-law, and you... However, I gave up because of my high moral standards."
Li Jiashu: "..." What do you mean by my brother and my sister-in-law? I always feel that this person has done something incredible.
After Yun Zhou finished joking, he still looked disappointed and said, "Actually, I just have no money... If we don't have a marriage, can you lend me some money, Boss Li?"
Li Jiashu asked doubtfully: "The Yun family is out of money? How much do you want to borrow?" In his impression, the Yun family is a very good old-established enterprise, and Yun Zhou's father and mother are also two entrepreneurs with a strong spirit of hard work. To what extent is the lack of money that would cause Yun Zhou to do these things?
Yun Zhou looked eagerly and asked, "Boss Li, do you have 5 million?"
Li Jiashu was even more puzzled and asked, "Does 5 million make you sell yourself everywhere?"
Yun Zhou was surprised and asked, "Do you have one?"
Li Jiashu said: "Of course I don't."
"I invested all my money in the new company, and now I have negative assets."
Yun Zhou said, "Yes, that's the situation at my house. We have been doing research and development, but there has been no results. We have invested too much money. Now the bank won't lend us money, and the shareholders are not optimistic about it. We have borrowed from everyone around us..."
"Now I am the only one who believes in my parents, but my father sent me to do scientific research, and I don't understand these things in the business world. Now I don't know what to do..."
Li Jiashu frowned. Yun Zhou's mother was a scientific researcher. It was her patent that supported the company. She should have known what was going on with the Yun family now. Did she think that there would be results?
Yun Zhou spread his hands and sighed, "So it's very difficult to borrow 5 million. Now it depends on whether there are investors who can recognize the value of this and invest in it..."
