Chapter 78 Su Ma
"Hmm? What's up?" Gu Ningwei put down his glass and looked at her with an encouraging look. "Tell me what you found out?"
Han shook his head and said vaguely, "Nothing much, I'm just a little confused. The company has been tossed around like this, but why is he just standing by and watching, not worried at all?"
Gu Ningwei nodded, was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "He is talking to me about selling shares."
"Selling shares?" Han was surprised. "Buying or selling?"
"Of course you want to sell all your shares to me." Gu Ningwei took a sip of wine and smiled slightly.
"At this time?" Seeing Gu Ningwei nod, Han was a little speechless.
"Yeah," Gu Ningwei smiled. "With Wang Jianan gone, the R&D department is gone, and several key people in the production workshop are also leaving. The sales department isn't much better, right?"
He glanced at Han Que, and she nodded in agreement.
He went on to say, "A company like this is indeed not far from closing down. It's understandable that Li Zhekai wants to take this opportunity to cash out and leave."
Han looked at Gu Ningwei and saw that he looked lazy and tired. He couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. He said softly, "You don't have to mind it too much. Mr. Li is confused by the recent situation of the company. He is discouraged for a while. Maybe when the company is in good shape and on the right track, his mind will change."
Gu Ningwei glanced at her, smiled, and said, "Do you think Mr. Li, who has been in the business world for so many years, would be intimidated by such difficulties?"
"What does he mean?" Han asked.
Gu Ningwei sighed deeply. "I've known Mr. Li for many years, and I have a good understanding of his personality. He's not one to give up easily. He's thinking of selling all his company shares to me, so he definitely has his own agenda."
Han curled his lips, "Don't give up so easily? At this time, shouldn't we work together to overcome the difficulties?"
Gu Ningwei shook his head wearily. "I can't say that Wang Jianan has no responsibility for this matter. For so many years, he indulged Wang Jianan's arrogance and domineering behavior, covering everything with one hand, and turned the company's R&D department into his private world."
Han was surprised, "You mean..."
"I'm not sure." Gu Ningwei looked at her and said, "Although Li Zhekai is willing to delegate power and doesn't want to take on responsibilities, preferring to be a hands-off boss, he still has a clear grasp of the big things. So it's hard to say."
"You mean he acquiesced to Wang Jianan's actions."
"There is no evidence to support this yet, but we can't rule out this possibility." Gu Ningwei frowned and thought.
"He was willing to sell his shares to me because he believed I had the ability and energy to take the company public. He was already old and wanted to retire early, and he didn't want to spend too much time on running the company. So his goal was to be able to cash out after the company went public, achieve financial freedom, and live a carefree life. This was his ideal state."
"That's true," Han said.
"Yes, that's right. These thoughts are very normal. That's why I say he acquiesced to Wang Jianan's actions. In other words, he wanted to leave himself a way out. If we fail here, maybe he can still count on Wang Jianan's company to go public."
"Ah? These people have so many things on their minds." Han was stunned. After a while, he shook his head and said, "I really don't understand why they have so many ideas. I originally thought that the company's profits were enough for me to share, but I didn't expect that each of them had their own plans."
Gu Ningwei reached out and touched his hair and said with a smile, "So, you are still very simple. Now that you are allowed to truly start managing the company, you will become more complicated."
"I don't care about any company." Han brushed away his rebellious hand.
"How can that be? Maybe Zhening Company will have to rely on you in the future." Gu Ningwei looked at her with a smile.
"What does Zhening Company have to do with me?" Han muttered softly.
"Why doesn't it matter? You are the boss's wife after all." Gu Ningwei glanced at her with a smile.
"Bah, what boss lady? Stop talking nonsense. Who am I?"
"What's that?" Her fingers brushed across his face, caressing him gently. "You are the woman I love most," he whispered. "That's an unchangeable fact."
Han was silent, a feeling of sadness welling up in his heart. Yes, she was the woman he loved, that was all.
This is a relationship that cannot be seen in the open. He will not give up his responsibilities, his ideals, and his ambitions for her, and he is not wrong.
Han lowered his head and ate his food.
Gu Ningwei didn't mention it again.
After dinner, the two of them strolled around the mall. Gu Ningwei said he wanted to buy something for Han Que. Han Que waved his hand and said, "You've already given me enough money. There's no need to buy me these. I don't need them."
Gu Ningwei smiled, knowing that she didn't like these luxury goods and jewelry, so he didn't say much.
They were strolling around and passed by the Tesla showroom. Gu Ningwei pulled her in to take a look.
A salesperson came up to us and asked, "What kind of car would you like to buy, sir and ma'am?"
Gu Ningwei looked back at Han Que with a smile, "Do you like it? I remember you said you liked this car very much. Although it's not expensive, its performance is still very good. It's a good means of transportation in the city. I'll buy one for you to drive first."
Han shook his head and said, "I haven't even got my driver's license yet, how can I buy a car?"
"Then hurry up and learn." Gu Ningwei said, "How difficult is it to learn to drive?"
The salesperson said: "Our cars need to be reserved, and they are not in stock at the moment."
"Yeah, it's great that you've learned how to drive and the car has just arrived." Gu Ningwei said as he walked over, opened the door, picked out a car, sat in the driver's seat, and stuck his head out to say to Han Que, "Do you like white, silver-gray, or any other color?"
"We can apply film here. We can do any color you like. Just add a little money."
Han pulled Gu Ningwei aside and asked quietly, "Don't domineering CEOs in romance novels always get given sports cars?"
Gu Ningwei smiled and pinched her nose: "That's going to have to wait until you become more proficient in driving." After that, he asked people to pay the bill.
The salesperson was smiling happily. While processing the paperwork, he flattered Gu Ningwei for being so nice to his girlfriend and buying it as soon as he said it would.
Gu Ningwei smiled but said nothing, "How can this be considered good?"
He left Han Que's name and ID number and went directly to the registration procedures.
After buying the car, Gu Ningwei pulled her to continue shopping, but Han felt uncomfortable and said her feet were tired and she didn't want to shop anymore.
Gu Ningwei knew that she was making an excuse, but he didn't expose her. Instead, he naturally took her hand, exerting a little force, and their fingers intertwined. Han also let him go.
"Let's go shopping again. I haven't been to the mall for a long time. Just think of it as taking a walk with me!" Gu Ningwei looked at him with a smile.
"You still have the time to shop." Han looked at him teasingly, "You have so many things to worry about."
"But life has to go on. Why think so much? Just take it one day at a time. Things will be solved one day at a time. There's no need to make things difficult for yourself every day." Gu Ningwei smiled lightly, and then he dragged her into a luxury store. What caught his eye was the iconic orange color.
"Mr. Gu, you haven't been here for a long time?" Qiu Min was on duty today. As soon as she saw Gu Ningwei, she walked up to him with a smile and greeted him familiarly.
"Yeah." He nodded gently, then turned back to look at Han Que, "Take a look at them, which one do you like?"
Qiu Min observed Han Que's expression and immediately smiled at him, "We've got a few classic styles that were out of stock before, but now they're here. Let me show them to you." She took out a white Birkin bag and showed it to Han Que in detail, "This one suits your temperament very well."
Han deliberately teased, "I heard that you should have a bag in every color so that it can be matched with clothes."
Qiu Min was slightly startled, then quickly glanced at Gu Ningwei, with an awkward smile on her lips.
Gu Ningwei laughed heartily at the side. "That's Gu Ningli. She has nothing to do after eating, so she just buys bags every day to vent her possessiveness."
"Which woman doesn't have possessiveness?" Han Que said softly, glancing at him.
Gu Ningwei was stunned for a moment, his expression slightly unnatural. He lowered his head to hide the emotion in his eyes. He asked Qiu Min to give him a few belts, blankets, and scarves, and wrapped them up. He said to Han Que, "I'm going to meet some people in a few days."
Han just nodded and said nothing.
Gu Ningwei glanced at her sideways. "Can't you pick one? Then let them introduce some to you." He waved his hand and said to Qiu Min, "My girlfriend wants to see every style."
Qiu Min understood what he meant and immediately took out one bag after another to introduce to Han Que.
In the end, Han felt embarrassed when he didn't buy anything. Gu Ningwei said, "Just pick one. After all, they spent a lot of time talking to you."
Han had no choice but to pick a small "vegetable basket" that was not too conspicuous.
After leaving the store, Han refused to shop anymore. She bent down and rubbed her calves, "I shouldn't have worn high heels today. My feet hurt."
Gu Ningwei glanced at her, then at the shoes on her feet. He pursed his lips and paused. He took Han Que's wrist, smiled and moved closer to her. He nodded and said, "Then let's go back. Tomorrow is the weekend, and you can stay at my place tonight..."
From the high-rise windows, you can overlook the night view of the city, with thousands of lights shining like stars.
The drizzle, like big and small beads, slid across the glass and meandered into a stream. She pressed her forehead against the glass and breathed rapidly. The hot air in her mouth met the cold air of the air conditioner and turned into a hazy white mist.
The night was foggy and the neon lights in the distance were faintly visible, sometimes far away and sometimes near as the body rose and fell.
Her body was pressed tightly against the cold glass, and the body of the person behind her was burning like magma. One side of her was like fire and the other was like ice.
His chin was pressed tightly against her cheek, his heavy breathing fell on her hair, his thin lips held the pearl on her ear, his tongue licking it lightly, but his body was unstoppable and he achieved it in one go.
Her body was covered with a thin layer of sweat, making it slippery. Under the light, it appeared as pink as a rose, and her slightly raised neck was stretched into perfect lines.
Time passed quietly, people moved around and gasped.
As she moaned uncontrollably, Gu Ningwei's tailbone felt numb and fireworks exploded in his head.
