After a long silence, Gu Yuan broke the deadlock with a light laugh. In the dark room, Gu Yuan said coldly, "It's not that I'm targeting you. It's just that your people can't control themselves and insist on coming here. You know I've always valued talent, so I reluctantly gave them a job. As for those clients, I don't think I did anything wrong. The business world is ruthless. For the sake of my own business, isn't it only right that I get them to buy my products? As for the methods, the business world is a dog-eat-dog world. If you lose to me today, you'll be at my mercy tomorrow."
Fu Hange's temper flared up instantly; he was still putting on an act! But she still forced herself to speak, "So, does President Gu mean I'm slandering you? Or are you trying to show off how good you are at business? Something that small fry like us shouldn't even be coveting?"
Isn't that so?
Gu Yuan sat back in his seat, leaned back in his chair and spun around a few times before resuming his serious demeanor and said, "I definitely won't be going to your employees, and I can't control the choice of clients. However, I can inject a large amount of capital into Xu's Group to keep it afloat for a while. But what happens after that depends on whether you have the brains for it."
Fu Hange's anger didn't subside because of his help; instead, it made her hate the feeling of being given charity and having no choice but to accept it even more. She knew he wouldn't be so kind as to give it away so easily, but she still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking she should endure it for now and deal with it later. Her tone softened slightly: "When will the money be transferred?"
To her surprise, this question only made her feel more ashamed. Gu Yuan laughed and said, "So soon? I haven't finished yet. I've done you such a big favor, so of course I have to repay you."
Fu Hange was completely confused. She squinted at him and continued, "Besides working hours, you have to pick me up from my house in the morning, and after get off work you have to come over to work overtime with me, and you also have to take me home. It's like being my assistant, except you don't get paid."
Finally, add: "For a period of one year."
Fu Hange was furious. Wasn't this torture? A dignified corporate president was going to be reduced to someone else's assistant and have to provide free services. What did they take her for? She was even more perverted than a serial killer on TV.
Before she could retort, Gu Yuan calmly took out the contract from the drawer and handed it to her, saying, "Our agreement will take effect immediately after you sign it. I guarantee you will see a different Xu family tomorrow."
Fu Hange was speechless for a moment. The Xu family had dragged on for so many days and it was no longer feasible. Even if she hated Gu Yuan, she knew that she would choose money without hesitation if faced with him instead of money.
He picked up the pen, closed his eyes, and slowly signed the two words. Gu Yuan took it and flicked it with his finger in satisfaction: "Don't be late for work tomorrow."
It was already 7:40. After going downstairs, Gu Yuan said coldly, "Get in the car."
It was a sweltering summer night outside. As soon as he got in the car, Gu Yuan turned on the air conditioning, and the cool air quickly enveloped his body. The man next to her leaned over, as if he wanted to pin her down. With only a few centimeters between them, it looked like he was about to kiss her. Fu Hange felt uneasy, afraid that he might do something to her again, but she didn't show any sign of guilt on her face.
After a moment of silence, Gu Yuan pulled Fu Hange's seatbelt over and buckled it, then sat back down and started the car. Fu Hange breathed a slight sigh of relief. Gu Yuan was the only one she'd ever been so intimately close to. She comforted herself, telling herself that she needed his help today, which was why she felt so wary and uneasy around him.
