Chapter 100 If You Don't Love Me, I Have My Own Plans (Methods)
Upon hearing this, Yue Yiyue suppressed his joy at achieving his goal and impatiently held onto Gu He's hand, trying to avoid erasing the hastily drawn scar.
He was still muttering to himself, "Hurry up and go in. Seriously, every day... When you go in, you have to show some respect, you know? That's General Manager Zhou."
Gu He, like someone who had been wronged, lowered her head and silently followed Yue Yiyue's steps.
Her eyes behind the sunglasses memorized the surrounding landmarks, even the eerie, wriggling long legs of the arthropods in the corners.
Yue Yiyue followed the person in front of him, diligently memorizing the chaotic path.
This place is so strange; it's built like a maze, as if to prevent people from escaping at the source.
Occasionally, doors appear on both sides, with gold coins painted on them?
One side is numbers, the other side is flowers and plants.
It doesn't look like the currency commonly used in this region.
"What...what is drawn on this door?" Yue Yiyue asked the person in front of him in a gruff voice.
"This is a currency that President Zhou issued to us a while ago. It can only be used here." She casually pulled a small, glittering gold object from her pocket: "It's only for internal company use and for daily expenses."
Before Yue Yiyue could get a good look, the man in the suit put away the gold coins: "Of course, only hard-working people can get such good things."
“I have always been a great help to the company, so I have more to offer.”
"This stuff is really good. You've brought such great news to President Zhou. You might soon become a valuable asset to the company."
"Oh." Yue Yiyue looked uninterested after hearing this and didn't intend to respond.
The person next to Yue Yiyue looked at her with a hint of doubt in her eyes: "This thing is quite useful; it can be used to buy many things."
She stiffly continued.
Yue Yiyue didn't care: "To put it bluntly, only your company can use it. I can't work for your company. Besides, this is real money, which is more interesting to me."
“I don’t want to work for someone else.” After saying this, Yue Yiyue impatiently urged, “How much longer? Making this so convoluted is really boring.”
...
"How can you be so sure that this thing won't be available on the market in the future?" The woman in the black suit understood the problem; it was as if she had found the answer.
Upon hearing this, Yue Yiyue and Gu He exchanged a glance.
There was no surprise in either of their eyes.
Zhou Qingyi must have received guidance from a master to have achieved this.
Yue Yiyue thought to himself, "This Gu He is well-informed; I wonder if he can win."
As for herself, well, if she were to play another game like last time, that would really kill her.
The people in front were still enthusiastically explaining the benefits of gold coins, trying to persuade Yue Yiyue to join their company and become a member of their team.
Yue Yiyue tried his best to appear very excited.
Perhaps because she couldn't use words or gestures, and could only use her somewhat expressionless face, the people in front of her were so focused on talking that they didn't see the eager expression Yue Yiyue was trying so hard to make.
Gu He tried to cover up his laughter with a cough.
Yue Yiyue looked back with some confusion, rubbing her cheeks, which were a little sore from straining her facial muscles as she tried to perform. Well, she didn't have that talent, so she shouldn't let Gu He behind her laugh at her.

The rest of the way, Yue Yiyue listened to Zhou's future development goals, development direction, and what kind of financial center they planned to build.
In one year, they went international; in three years, they became top-tier.
Mu Hongcai 2.0
More accurately, it's Mu Hongcai 2.0 who still has a little bit of conscience. Because the woman who led the way really loves this job.
And after walking for so long, listening to the other person ramble on and on, we still haven't reached our destination.
Yue Yiyue really wanted to punch Zhou Qingyi the moment he saw her.
She thought with some annoyance and shock that the good people in the original story had actually gone down a path that destroyed their humanity. Was this a moral depravity or a distortion of their values?
That should all count.
Da Zhou has been imprisoned by Xiao Zhou.
"How much longer until we get there? President Zhou really has a big ego." Yue Yiyue snorted coldly, while taking note of the subtle differences on both sides, and pretended to complain: "Are you treating me like a donkey? You keep calling me President Zhou, President Zhou, is the President Zhou you're taking me to see?"
Yue Yiyue stomped her foot impatiently, showing that she was throwing a small tantrum.
The person in front didn't respond, but simply changed the subject and continued walking.
Five minutes later, Yue Yiyue watched as the woman ahead continued to wander around, wary that they might remember the true exit of the maze.
Yue Yiyue remained silent, pondering whether or not to inflict an axially symmetrical injury on Zhou Qingyi later.
It sounds a bit violent, but in the same place, I was inexplicably led around for almost half an hour.
Anyone can get annoyed.
After passing through the same small door he had just gone through, Yue Yiyue sighed.
At the next intersection, she pulled Gu He, who was beside her, to turn left, and then to right.
I walked as far into the alley as possible to make sure they wouldn't follow me.
Gu He followed quietly the whole time, without raising any questions.
Yue Yiyue turned around four times to confirm that she was really holding Gu He's hand, not that chatterbox, before she explained, "She has a problem; she's been waiting for me to agree to her conditions."
"It's as if she won't lead us to the real entrance unless I agree to her request."
Gu He nodded: "I see. I thought we were really going to have to go that far. Come to think of it, you actually listened to what the other person said."
Hearing the other person's somewhat surprised words, Yue Yiyue rubbed his face.
Well, Gu He is the kind of person who is good at getting information, so he may not be that strong in other areas.
After confirming Gu He's location, Yue Yiyue perked up and looked at the road ahead.
There are many identical rooms, and these rooms look no different from each other.
But Yue Yiyue had just observed the area and noticed that the leaves on the purple room would display directional markers.
Those who had just led the way almost all chose a different direction.
Yue Yiyue began the verification process at that time.
After following them for half an hour and determining that all the other party's regions had the same choice, Yue Yiyue finally dared to make such a choice.
We just can't set off yet.
Once the leader sees them leave, he'll definitely start calling for people to look for them.
I just don't know what methods they used.
Yue Yiyue led Gu He forward, passing a purple room. She hesitated at the door for a moment, but still pushed the door open and went in.
Anyway, let's take a short break and sort out the information we just received.
————
The purple door leads to a lounge.
In the dim light, what comes into view is a wooden table that looks very old.
Looking around the room, Yue Yiyue stared at the familiar items, a chill running down his spine.
Inside, there are clothes, hats, and shoes similar to those worn by Gu Nanqiu.
There were several portraits of Gu Nanqiu on the table, which looked like they were taken around the time of the final exams.
On the wooden table to the side, there was something on an offering, and three incense sticks of different lengths were stuck in the table, with the two on the sides at different heights and the one in the middle being the longest.
Scattered in the corner were some things Yue Yiyue had never seen before, but had seen online.
A tangled stack of talismans, a half-burnt candle, and cinnabar.
There was also a book on witchcraft next to it, which made Yue Yiyue's scalp tingle.
Looking at the things in the room, Gu He curiously tugged at the clothes beside her: "These clothes are nice. It seems the owner of this place has good taste in clothing and knows a lot about fashion."
Seeing the strange doll-like face in the corner with Gu Nanqiu's name pasted on it, Yue Yiyue felt the veins on his forehead throbbing, and his anger rose again: "No."
"Hmm?" Gu He gripped the fabric in her hand. "So what do you think happened?"
"This is my friend's, the same style." Yue Yiyue emphasized the last two words, just to avoid being misunderstood.
However, the stains on the sofa were very fresh and there was no smell of laundry detergent. Gu He quickly noticed the problem. She pulled the clothes off the sofa and put them aside, making room for two people to sit: "It seems that your friend has run into some trouble."
Her gaze fell on the pile of things on the other side, and she added cautiously, "Okay, to be honest, this little problem seems to be a bit big."
Yue Yiyue squatted down and looked through the things on the ground. There was Gu Nanqiu's birthday on it, and the doll he had just seen had some hair stuck to it, making it look a bit funny.
"Don't touch it." Seeing Yue Yiyue about to pick up the doll, Gu He stopped him, saying, "These things are rather strange. You'd better not touch them. We'll have our folklore team come and handle it after we get out."
"This thing looks like a small magic circle?"
Gu He tried to explain this unscientific thing in front of him using more youthful terms.
"The purpose is probably to make someone fall deeply in love with another person through this magic circle."
Walking to Yue Yiyue's side, Gu He squatted down and carefully examined the items in the magic circle, muttering, "Intimate clothing... hair... oh, and the birth date and time are also obtained. It seems that someone who understands this has given guidance."
"Can it be destroyed directly?" Yue Yiyue suddenly had a dagger in his hand, gleaming with silver light. Gu He was startled and took a step back, afraid that Yue Yiyue might make a small mistake and actually kill her.
"You're so young, how come you're holding this thing? It can't be destroyed." Gu He wrote something on it: "It's still missing that person's blood, which is why this formation hasn't been completed."
That's interesting.
Are all the purple doors leading to this room?
Or is someone controlling this maze?
I just randomly pushed open the door and stumbled upon this interesting room.
Gu He raised an eyebrow, her ordinary face suddenly coming to life, her eyes shining with an astonishing brightness: "So, are we currently inside the Zhou Group?"
"Is it still within a feng shui arrangement?"
She looked up, squinted, and pointed with her finger: "Hmm, it's alright, Su Xi."
This conversation was completely rambling, and Yue Yiyue's knowledge of this subject was limited to one or two novels, so it wasn't convenient to press him for details at this point.
After all, Gu He looked like he was making some kind of very difficult calculations, muttering something like "three consecutive words".
Yue Yiyue stood aside, watching Gu He fiddle with things for a long time, and then stared at the piece of paper on the ground with Gu Nanqiu's name written on it for a long time.
"Don't worry, even if this thing is completed, it has nothing to do with your friend. I just calculated it, and the timing is probably wrong."
She added, "It's a happy occasion."
