125. Chapter 125: Even the Gods Can't Help



At this time, Bai Qiuwu had no idea what kind of corporate life was waiting for him.

She was congratulating herself on having gotten away with it.

Pu Yao is the main problem. Once he is solved, the rest will be much easier.

Bai Qiuwu first changed Xiaolu's memory, erasing this part directly, and then changed the memories of the five teenagers as well.

At this moment, she turned into a dream maker and directly changed the memory of their coming here into a social activity, allowing those who were rescued in their youth to go and see the people who rescued them.

In order to ensure the authenticity, Bai Qiuwu carefully studied the logical problems for a long time. Only after he was sure that there were no loopholes did he let them go.

She and Xiaolu had just met by chance. Now that the matter had been resolved, Xiaolu no longer remembered it. The two of them had returned to being strangers and had separated directly.

Xiaolu still found it very strange, because her memory was still stuck on the last banquet when Bai Qiuwu got angry, and she didn't have a very good impression of Bai Qiuwu.

So she had no idea why she would participate in the social activities organized by Bai Qiuwu. Wasn't she crazy?

While thinking this, she rolled her eyes at this big liar and asked her assistant to pick her up.

Bai Qiuwu said nothing even when he was despised, and kept his achievements and fame to himself.

Pu Xi sold himself out to get Pu Yao's help. Pu Yao was not in a hurry to return to the company. He just watched Bai Qiuwu handle the matter.

Pu Yao was slightly surprised to see the huge contrast between Xiaolu and the five teenagers.

"They... don't remember?" After everyone had left and they were sure that only the two of them were left, Pu Yao still asked this question.

"Is there a possibility that they just buried this matter deep in their hearts?" Bai Qiuwu certainly did not admit it. His eyes were sincere and he was serious about preparing to fool people.

Fearing that Pu Yao might get serious, she even added, "But your confidentiality applies to them as well. You cannot reveal any details of today to anyone except me."

"Good brother, I believe you can do it, right? After all, we have already made an agreement, and I believe you must be a man of your word."

Pu Yao: “…”

Looking at the woman's sincere eyes, he knew in his heart that she was talking nonsense, but he was still shocked by her shamelessness.

And who did you learn this behavior of flattering others?

Weiwei was speechless for a moment. Pu Yao was indeed a man who had seen many storms, and his final reaction was surprisingly good.

He didn't expose the woman's nonsense, but said calmly: "Yes, we agreed."

"Come on, remember to achieve the performance you promised as soon as possible. Come on, I'll take you back."

As a cash cow that can bring benefits to the company, Pu Yao treats Bai Qiuwu much more politely than he treats his own younger brother.

Bai Qiuwu did not refuse and got into his car leisurely.

Just when he was getting off the car, he finally remembered his assistant who had been missing for several days.

"I think you can let Pu Xi out." Bai Qiuwu held the car door and looked at Pu Yao sincerely.

She has a naturally gorgeous appearance, and her fame in the entertainment industry was due to this face, so her looks are impeccable and she is very good-looking.

And I don’t know what happened to her during this period, it was like she suddenly had plastic surgery, and it was just a minor adjustment. Her facial features obviously didn’t change much, but she became more and more beautiful.

Even the whole person has a sense of unreality that is not human. When viewed from close up, it still seems as if there is a distance between them, and there is an inexplicable sense of unreality.

At this moment, Bai Qiuwu's sense of distance was much less because she needed help from others. She tilted her head and looked at Pu Yao with sparkling eyes.

Pu Yao has seen many beauties of all kinds. With his status and identity, there are many people who want to build relationships with him by giving him beauties.

But even with his vision, he still couldn't deny Bai Qiuwu's beauty.

This little star is really good-looking, especially when asking for help, his eyes are shining, as if he is the only one in his eyes, which is very deceptive.

Pu Yao tightened his grip on the steering wheel and looked away awkwardly. He had clearly made up his mind to make Pu Xi work overtime for a month, but at this moment he was shamefully shaken.

No, if he changes his mind just because someone says something, what kind of person would he be?

Pu Yao condemned himself in his heart and was about to refuse when he heard Bai Qiuwu say, "If you don't let him go, I'm not familiar with many things myself, so I'm afraid I'll have to harass you every day."

"Do you have the time to be on call 24 hours a day like him, ready to solve any emergencies on my end? Oh, and keep an eye on my live stream."

Pu Yao: "...He will be back tomorrow."

As a company boss, he has so many things to do every day. He really can't be like Pu Xi. This is too outrageous.

Therefore, professional work should be left to professionals, and Pu Xi was successfully released from the company.

Pu Xi, who had been working overtime without a moment's break, burst into tears when she saw Bai Qiuwu the next day.

"Wow, my brother is such a jerk! There's such a thick stack of documents, each one about one thing, and he actually asked me to deal with them all. You don't know how I've been going these past few days!"

Pu Xi, who was always scratching his head in the company, seemed to have just been released from prison. He grabbed Bai Qiuwu's hand and started complaining.

And what he said was very convincing because he had lost a lot of weight.

It's only been a few days, and it's really not easy to lose this much weight. I guess he is really tired.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiuwu felt that as his partner, she should still say a few words of comfort, so she patted Pu Xi's shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work. I know that your life is not easy, so I tried my best to get you out."

Pu Xi was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes: "Thank you, you are such a good partner of mine."

Bai Qiuwu said modestly, "No, no," completely ignoring the fact that it was because of him that Pu Xi was forced to sell herself to work.

Pu Xi howled twice more before finally venting all the grievances and frustrations he had been feeling for a while, then he looked at Bai Qiuwu and started talking about business.

"Speaking of which, how did you manage to convince my brother to let me out?"

Pu Xi said this with some emotion: "I really thought he was so cruel that he would lock me up for a month."

Bai Qiuwu: "He really plans to lock you up for a month, so you can dispel the suspicion."

Pu Xi: "? Then you..."

Bai Qiuwu: "I agreed to one of his conditions, and then I felt that I couldn't do it alone, so I hoped he would release you to help me. He was not willing to do it at first."

Having said that, Bai Qiuwu paused and smiled shyly, "But I'm saying, if I don't let you out to help me, then he'll have to help me."

"He thought about it carefully and decided it would be more cost-effective to release you, so he released you."

Pu Xi: “…”

Pu Xi inexplicably had a very bad feeling.

He looked at Bai Qiuwu hesitantly, and after a long pause he tentatively asked, "What conditions did you agree to?"

Bai Qiuwu scratched his head and said uncertainly, "My current turnover will increase by 10 percentage points within this year, I think."

Pu Xi: “?”

Pu Xi suspected that he had misheard and couldn't help but raise his voice: "How much did you say? What time?"

Bai Qiuwu repeated good-naturedly, emphasizing each word to prevent him from misinterpreting it, "Increase by 10 points, within this year."

Pu Xi: “…”

Pu Xi's eyes turned black.

"I suddenly feel like going back to work overtime." He muttered to himself, as if he had lost his soul, and suddenly felt that life was hopeless.

Bai Qiuwu was very surprised by his reaction and asked, "What's wrong? Is this mission difficult?"

She was really confused because she did live streaming purely to increase her fame. She had no idea how much money she made or how much profit it brought to the company, and she had never paid attention to it.

What is turnover? I've never heard of it.

As for how much a 10-point increase would mean, she simply didn't understand. She only knew that it would have to be improved a little on the original basis. As for how much improvement and how much money she needed to make, she was completely in the dark.

This is why she asked for Pu Xi to be released.

Because Pu Xi was in charge of these things in the past, if Bai Qiuwu had to do it herself, she would be in a very difficult situation.

Although Pu Xi has been released now, his reaction seems to be a little strange.

Is this requirement... a bit difficult?

Bai Qiuwu didn't understand these things, but she could ask for advice humbly.

As soon as she asked the question, Pu Xi couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Auntie, is this a difficult question? This is simply impossible to complete!"

Pu Xi was so anxious that he wanted to scratch the wall again. He looked at Bai Qiuwu with tears in his eyes. Because he was too excited, his voice rose eight degrees.

"Do you even know what this request means? How dare you agree to it so carelessly? Do you know that my brother is a very serious person? If you agree to it, you must complete it, otherwise you will definitely suffer the consequences!"

Pu Xi was so anxious that he was spinning around in circles: "How could you agree to such a request? Is it too late for me to go back and work overtime now? Or you can just pretend I never heard of this."

Bai Qiuwu: "...But I really don't know what this request means. I just agreed because your brother asked. I thought, since he's your brother, he wouldn't cheat me..."

Pu Xi looked at Bai Qiuwu speechlessly: "You really don't know anything about black-hearted capitalists."

Bai Qiuwu: "...Then why don't you tell me about it? I don't know what's going on right now."

Pu Xi sighed heavily, as if he finally faced the reality and knew that he couldn't escape it, and then he became depressed and gave up.

"Your current turnover is already an incredible figure. In such a short period of time, you've surpassed nearly a year's worth of effort. You can only imagine how impressive your turnover must have been during this period."

"But this thing peaked right from the start because we were new, and you were already famous in the entertainment industry, and then you came up with this novel gimmick, and I spent a lot of money on marketing, so it attracted a lot of attention."

"But this kind of attention will decline later. At first, people see it as something new, but as it gradually becomes less so, it will definitely decline. And there should be a lot of such people because you have a large base."

"Under these circumstances, it's hard to even maintain your previous sales, let alone surpass them. And 10 points is really a lot!"

At this point, Pu Xi wiped his face, wanting to cry but unable to: "And let me ask you, do you know how many months are left this year?"

Bai Qiuwu nodded: "Two months."

"Yes, it's early November now, and there are only two months left in this year. Reaching 10% of your previous turnover in just two months is simply a pipe dream."

"You were aiming too high before. This record is the highest in our company, and it's hard for anyone to surpass it, including yourself."

"Normally, if you can maintain half of your previous sales by the end of this year, that would be considered a great achievement. We can even celebrate with champagne."

"But now, you're telling me you want to increase your current sales by 10 percentage points. I can only say, forget it."

Bai Qiuwu finally understood the difficulty of this task and asked cautiously, "Is it so absolute?"

"Is there a possibility? Let's just say, can we give it a try?"

Pu Xi shook his head decisively: "If you recognize the facts, you won't say such words. I think you were tricked by my brother. You didn't agree to any conditions that would humiliate the country, right?"

"As long as he hasn't promised a price for not doing it, we'll just try our best. If we really can't do it, then we can only say he assigned an impossible task and we can't be blamed."

Pu Xi was still very considerate of Bai Qiuwu's feelings, even going so far as to criticize his own brother: "Isn't it just cheating? I'm very familiar with this. Don't worry, my brother will definitely not do anything to you."

But as he spoke, he noticed that Bai Qiuwu's expression was very wrong.

So his voice gradually fell, and his expression gradually became broken: "Don't tell me that you agreed to my brother's conditions."

Bai Qiuwu nodded heavily.

Pu Xi still had a glimmer of hope in his heart: "What conditions did you agree to? Is it serious? Can you regret it?"

Bai Qiuwu: "I can't regret it. This mission must be completed, otherwise I can't bear the consequences."

"I can't tell you what it contains. I promised to keep it confidential."

Pu Xi closed his eyes and slapped his forehead: "Beautiful!"

Bai Qiuwu: "But it's okay, I have a solution."

Pu Xi was almost crying: "What can you do? With this kind of sales, even if you pray to the gods, it's useless. Even if we both promote naked streaking live broadcasts, we probably won't be able to make back the money. Do you even know what a miraculous record is?"

"It's called a miracle because it can't happen a second time. I really can't survive!"

"It's okay, you have to believe me, I can really do it."

Bai Qiuwu simply said, "But you might need to help me, like make a wish for me or something. Remember to be sincere."

Pu Xi: “?”
