Just then, Xu Shanglou pushed open the door and entered, "What fifty million?"
Gu Xu: "Naturally, it will be a joint sponsorship between you and me, requesting the Xiangshi Xuanmen Association to contribute 50 million to exorcise evil."
Xu Shanglou had been busy all day and had already heard the news of Shen Ruodi's execution on the way. He was secretly glad that he had finally eliminated this major threat before Zhuozhuo left.
Unexpectedly, it was Mingzhuo himself who killed this evil spirit.
His younger sister, whom he considered obedient, cute, and in need of protection, had once again quietly done something big.
"I thought it was Jiang Shengying who personally took action to bring down the evil spirit so quickly."
As a native of Xiangshi, Xu Shanglou had never believed in such things before, but he was aware of Jiang Shengying's formidable reputation and absolute dominance in the Xuanmen (Taoist sect) of Xiangshi.
He gained a completely new understanding of Mingzhuo's abilities.
"Zhuozhuo, how are you so amazing? Not only did you convince Master Qinglian, but now you're even inferior to Jiang Shengying?"
Mingzhuo was unusually modest: "No, no, it's all thanks to the contrast with my peers."
It's hard to say what Jiang Shengying was like, but the younger generations of the Jiang family are indeed getting worse and worse.
She happily counted her account balance again, then suddenly remembered something. "I heard Lao Hou say that this bonus goes through the association's account and is subject to tax. Why wasn't the tax deducted?"
Old Hou is Hou Zhihui. He caught up with Mingzhuo and talked about paying taxes. He also said that it was not easy to make a living in Hong Kong, so he decided to go back to the mainland to take a look.
I hope to visit him in person someday to express my gratitude for Mingzhuo's life-saving grace.
The other party was cautious and clearly wanted to curry favor with Ming Zhuo, fearing that once the master left, the opportunity would be completely lost.
Mingzhuo saw through it but didn't say anything. The other party should indeed thank him, after all, that shadow ghost was after his body and soul.
She left the address of Luowu Residence so that the other party could visit and deliver a thank-you gift.
The other party reminded her that taxes would be deducted, which she understood, so she accepted it, though she felt a little regretful.
Unexpectedly, the amount that has arrived in my account is the full amount.
Gu Xu brought the porcelain cup to his lips and said calmly, "The tax has already been deducted; this is the after-tax bonus."
Xu Shanglou: "..."
Although I have indeed been busy these past few days and haven't had time for anything else, I clearly remember that you didn't say that at the time.
However, he had no objection to Gu Xu's statement. In any case, the right to interpret the terms was in their hands, and it was his sister who received the bonus.
In the end, our family still made the profit.
Mingzhuo immediately understood; this was the tax-inclusive arrangement Gu Xu had made on the spur of the moment after hearing him lament about paying taxes.
"Ah Xu, you're such a good person!"
Gu Xu: "..."
He looked utterly helpless; he was constantly giving himself the "friend zone" card.
——
The next morning, Xu Shanglou personally took Mingzhuo to the airport.
He always felt a little sorry for Mingzhuo. His sister had come all the way from afar, but he didn't have time to take her to have a good time in Hong Kong.
Being busy with work is one aspect, but on the other hand, it's not suitable to bring Mingzhuo to the Xu family's residence recently.
The "Fortune-Changing God" incident has drawn criticism from Xu Zhongkai, as some people have overstepped their bounds.
Although he always blamed his eldest son for being disobedient, he was, after all, his first child, so how could he allow someone to harm him maliciously?
Xu Shanglou obtained the highest level of authorization from Xu Zhongkai and moved into the Xu Group headquarters as soon as he returned to Hong Kong. His decisive and efficient style made many people tremble with fear.
Some of the group's veterans were quite dissatisfied, feeling that you, a young junior, were being too arrogant.
They wanted to complain to Xu Zhongkai... but Xu Zhongkai has been staying in Yunwu City and they can't find him!
This made many people realize that Xu Zhongkai's relationship with his eldest son was not as bad as the rumors suggested.
The claims that Chairman Xu is unhappy that his eldest son has become obsessed with marrying a money-grubbing woman, and that Xu Shanglou may be ineligible for the position of heir, are likely just smoke and mirrors.
With everyone having their own thoughts, Mingzhuo guessed that Xu Shanglou would encounter some obstacles.
She had her assistant bring Xu Shanglou a lot of talismans, including high-grade amulets and defensive talismans that could save his life in critical moments; there were also talismans to ward off villains, which were designed to provide all-around protection like an iron bell and a shield.
Anyone who dares to cause trouble behind our backs will suffer the consequences.
“Your talisman seems to work very well. The day before yesterday, an uncle of mine who doesn’t get along with me inexplicably tripped and fell. He was holding me back from implementing a project, but this fall made him realize something. Although he was bruised and battered, thankfully he was alright,” Xu Shanglou said.
Mingzhuo nodded. The effect was so good that the other party was definitely not just blocking the project.
However, he didn't have any more malicious intentions, otherwise things would probably have been even worse.
Xu Shanglou: "You've helped me a lot, and things have gone much more smoothly. Next time you come, I'll spend all my time playing with you and Mingying."
He was eager to return home, and thankfully he would be able to go back to Yunwu City in a few days.
Mingzhuo: "Brother-in-law, you've had so many gifts bought for me. It's unnecessary. I don't really like shopping."
She thought to herself, but her older sister and mother would probably like it, after all, Hong Kong is a shopping paradise.
However, Ruan Mingying never had the idea of coming to Xiangshi. Even when she asked for leave to go to Xiangshi, she only sent some money and did not ask to come along.
She found her older sister's attitude particularly interesting. Despite being married to her brother-in-law, they always maintained a distance, not allowing each other's space to be disturbed.
It seems that whether before or after marriage, Ruan Mingying has always focused on being herself.
This is Ruan Mingying, independent and self-reliant, confident and free-spirited, radiating light from head to toe.
Once on the plane, Mingzhuo fell asleep immediately and slept for most of the day.
