If no new funds enter the next phase within three days of the agreed-upon time, he will face a devastating blow.
…
Wen Qingye returned home in a daze, pondering what to do next. His life had been too smooth sailing. He had been spoiled by his parents since childhood, and he had taken over the company very easily after growing up.
Moreover, with the help of Wan Ge, the company is doing exceptionally well and has never experienced such a situation before.
Wen Qingye sat blankly on the sofa when a voice came from outside the door, followed by Lu Niannian, dressed in a flamboyant manner, appearing in front of him.
Lu Niannian seemed to sense that she wasn't very happy. If Lu Niannian couldn't even read between the lines, she wouldn't be able to make Wen Qingye so infatuated with her.
Lu Niannian, who was carrying large bags, immediately put them all down and walked behind him, massaging his temples: "What's wrong? Is it something about the company?"
"It's okay, you wouldn't understand even if I told you." Hearing her sweet voice, Wen Qingye's bad mood was slightly soothed.
However, she really didn't understand the company's affairs, and since Lu Niannian came from a poor background, there was no one who could help him.
Thinking of this, Wen Qingye recalled the time when the company wanted to take it to the next level, and Wange introduced him to various resources and big shots, and prepared some detailed plans for him.
Wait… Wen Qingye took a deep breath. Why did she think of her again?
Wen Qingye shook his head, trying to clear his mind.
Lu Niannian sensed that the other person seemed to be lost, but she didn't know anything and didn't dare to ask any more questions. However, she still followed his words and said, "Aye, can you send me to the company? I'm willing to learn. With Aye guiding me, I think I'll learn quickly. Then I'll know how to help you solve the problem, right?"
Wen Qingye frowned slightly. Lu Niannian's major wasn't really related to the company, and more importantly... he didn't know how much longer his company could last. "I'm sorry, Niannian, I can't bring you into the company for the time being. Even if I did, I wouldn't have time to spend with you, so is it okay if we don't make that arrangement for now?"
Lu Niannian still had a sweet smile on her face, without any embarrassment or awkwardness after being rejected. She nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if you don't arrange for me to join the company. I just wanted to help you share your burdens. I didn't mean anything else."
"Niannian, it's so good to have you." Wen Qingye seemed to finally get a moment of relief. Looking at Lu Niannian in front of him, he picked her up and carried her towards the bedroom.
…
Wen Qingye got up very early in the morning. His schedule for the next two days was packed. He was going to meet some people who wouldn't reveal their personal information to others, but were very likely willing to lend him money in an emergency.
Lu Niannian saw that the other person had gotten up so early. Even though she was sleepy, she still got up to help him get dressed and tie his tie, and then prepared to go downstairs to make breakfast. She looked exactly like a virtuous wife and loving mother.
However, Wen Qingye said directly, "Niannian, you don't need to prepare breakfast for me. I'm leaving soon. If you're sleepy, you can sleep a little longer."
“Okay.” Lu Niannian nodded sensibly, then watched him leave.
After the other person really left, Lu Niannian went back to bed and continued dreaming. Lu Niannian was still unaware of what was happening at the company.
I still feel that it won't be long before I become the envy of everyone.
…
At this very moment, Wen Qingye had already arrived at the golf course.
Wen Qingye stood next to a middle-aged man who looked to be around fifty or sixty years old, with a fawning smile on his face: "President Gu, I've told you everything I can. The rest are confidential and I can't tell you. So, would you like to consider investing in our company?"
The other party first sighed with feigned helplessness, and then said, "Mr. Wen, seeing how sincere you are, I won't tease you anymore. To tell you the truth, Ji Nanhuai's father and I are sworn brothers. He saved my life back then, so how could I possibly betray him? You should go find someone else."
After saying that, he threw down his cue and turned to leave.
His expression wasn't good; he clearly looked unhappy. Someone who usually loves playing golf had no intention of playing any all day.
After being turned down by President Gu, Wen Qingye went to several investment company owners, but the results were similar; no one was willing to invest in him, even though everyone knew that their plan was bound to make money.
Before it got completely dark, Wen Qingye contacted the owner of an investment company with whom he had some prior connections, but the owner also refused.
However, unlike the previous ones, the other party shook his head and told Wen Qingye, "Qingye, we are friends, but I'm really sorry, you don't need to try other people anymore. President Gu refused to invest in you, and it's almost impossible for anyone else in this industry to invest in you."
So, how exactly did you offend President Gu? He's always had a good temper. The fact that he rejected such a promising collaboration makes it crystal clear that he's extremely dissatisfied with you.
Oh, by the way, I actually think you could try contacting Miss Xi. She loved you so much back then, how could she really just stop loving you completely like that? Maybe she's waiting for you to go to her now.
Wen Qingye opened his mouth but ultimately didn't explain. He just smiled, nodded, said thank you, and then turned and left.
After his figure completely disappeared, the young man who had been smiling spat out, "Pah! Ha, I never thought that the high and mighty Young Master Wen would have a day when he had to beg for help. As expected, what goes around comes around, and no one escapes the wrath of heaven."
He told him they were friends, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them enemies.
They had known each other since college. Although they weren't in the same class, they were in the same department. They met by chance. Back then, his family's social standing was nothing like it is now. They were practically at the bottom of the social circle, and he was bullied a lot.
Wen Qingye seemed to be protecting him like a friend, but the mockery and sarcasm in his eyes clearly showed that he looked down on him.
When you're in a bad situation, you hope someone can lend you a hand. Whether it's out of pity or empathy, being helped is a good thing.
He has always had a clear understanding of these things, so even if he is indeed not as good as others, he will not feel inferior or sad because of it.
However, Wen Qingye's expression and actions back then were indeed very annoying, and he really hated Wen Qingye.
