Gu Yuanli wants to discuss cooperation with him?
"It seems like there's not much to talk about since this is my first meeting with President Gu?" Shen Shi asked, puzzled.
"That's precisely why we need to have a good talk. The Gu family is going to develop a luxury hotel, and Mr. Shen is a man of great talent and will surely be able to take on this important task."
Gu Yuanli invited Shen Shi to a nearby coffee shop.
Having never met in her previous life, Shen Shi had a preconceived notion that Gu Yuanyi was a pretentious rich kid.
But after their conversation, Shen Shi was surprised to find that Gu Yuanyuan was actually a straightforward person.
She's even more straightforward than him.
The two had a pleasant conversation, and Shen Shi accepted the olive branch extended by Gu Yuanli.
The Gu family is a prominent and well-known enterprise in Shanghai, and the hotels they build are exceptionally luxurious.
Shen Shi never imagined that he, as a cannon fodder second male lead, would have the chance to work with the male lead.
That's really quite a funny thing.
But no matter whose money it is, there's no reason not to make money from it. The more you dislike someone, the more you should try to get their money into your own pocket.
Spending your enemy's money to buy what you like—isn't that wonderful!
Due to Gu Yuanyuan's numerous demands, the renovation of the international hotel took a year to complete.
To Shen Shi's surprise, the collaboration, which he had expected to encounter complications, proceeded exceptionally smoothly.
Gu Yuanyuan barely showed up until the project was completed.
When the project was delivered, Shen received the final payment on time. Looking at the numbers on his bank card, he couldn't stop smiling.
After this project was completed, Shen Shi made a fortune.
Regarding his past life's ending, Shen Shi always believed that it was because he had done too many evil deeds, and that God disliked him.
As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor; if anyone is to blame, it's Mu Xiaoyu's idiot fiancé.
After the international hotel project was completed, Shen Shi and Gu Yuanyuan became acquaintances, but they occasionally collaborated again.
The relationship between the male and female leads is getting better and better.
Chen Shi began calculating when Mu Xiaoyu's fiancé would appear.
On Li Lan's first day in Haishi, the person she sent to keep an eye on her sent a message to Shen Shi.
To avenge the knife wound, Shen Shi decisively contacted someone and robbed Li Lan of all her money.
Then he tied him up in an abandoned warehouse and personally tortured him severely.
If it weren't for the system warning that it couldn't disrupt the plot, Shen Shi would have planned to physically eliminate him without anyone noticing.
However, after receiving a warning from the system, Chen Shi had no choice but to stop.
Unable to swallow his anger, he would send people to cause trouble for Li Lan every few days.
But Li Lan, like an unkillable cockroach, stubbornly survived.
What follows is a plot exactly the same as in the previous life, except that the person who was stabbed was changed from Shen Shi to Gu Yuanli.
However, he was far away and not as lucky as when he was down.
When he was stabbed, there was no one around, so he could only catch the blade with his bare hands and fight Li Lan hand-to-hand to the death.
But the male lead is the male lead after all, and Gu Yuanyuan eventually gained the upper hand, with the perpetrator Li Lan being taken away by the police.
Gu Yuanli, covered in injuries, nearly died from excessive blood loss.
The arrival of this day also excited Shen Shi.
You bastard, I haven't settled the score with you for stabbing me in the back yet!
Shen Shi used his connections in Hai City to get Li Lan to handle the case severely, ultimately resulting in a 15-year prison sentence.
Gu Yuanli was extremely grateful after learning about this.
He treated Chen Shi like a buddy, and they would often go fishing together.
But Mu Xiaoyu suffered a terrible fate, because of her, Gu Yuanli was stabbed.
No matter what the Gu family said, they disagreed with the two dating and insisted on forcing them to break up.
At first, Gu Yuanyuan even fought against his family for true love, but after a three- to five-year courtship, he gradually wavered.
Mu Xiaoyu remains unchanged.
The naivety of youth is a kind of fun, but if you're still clueless and need someone to clean up your messes by the time you're 25 or 26, then you're really stupid.
Gu Yuanyuan ultimately chose to break up with her family and marry the man arranged by her family.
Mu Xiaoyu cried and made a scene, but to no avail, and finally gave up and returned to her hometown.
Five or six years passed, and Shen Shi had become a prominent figure in Shanghai.
If there's anything I'm unhappy about, it's my daughter, Shen Yueyue.
As she grew older, she became increasingly rebellious.
At home, it was alright; she could at least listen to a few words from Ji Beiqing.
But once she got to school, she started to let loose and became a little tyrant. No one in the class was afraid of her.
Ji Beiqing was always extremely worried, and Shen Shi was equally anxious.
But as the number of times increased, the couple gradually became numb to it.
As long as my daughter doesn't bully the weak, skip school to go to internet cafes, or talk back to teachers, I'll let her be.
On Shen Yueyue's fifteenth birthday, Shen Shi, as usual, held a grand birthday banquet for her.
She even spent a lot of money to invite her favorite celebrity.
"Dad, I don't want to talk to those people!" Shen Yueyue pouted and complained.
"If you don't want to, then don't!" Shen Shi said helplessly, stroking her head.
People flocked to flatter him, and Ji Beiqing, who had grown considerably, handled them with ease.
What about the Shen family?
Just like in his previous life, Shen Feiyang became addicted to gambling and racked up a mountain of debt.
Unable to repay their debts, the Shen family fled to Shanghai to escape their creditors.
But the truth eventually came out, and the family was soon found.
The leader, a bald man with a scarred face, grabbed Shen Feiyang, who was cowering in the corner, and threatened him viciously, "Pah! You dare to run away after owing money? I'll break your legs!"
Then she punched and kicked him repeatedly.
"How dare you hit my son!" Lin Fang roared and charged forward, ready to fight.
