Chapter 69: Kicked Out
After a while, the corner of his mouth curled up into an arc full of disdain and ridicule.
"Half a year?" Chi Yuanduan's voice was as cold as ice. "Just you? Wu Suowei, what do you think the business world is? A game of house? Or do you think that with Chi Cheng backing you up, you can do whatever you want?"
He didn't believe Wu Suowei could do it at all.
"I don't need his support!" Wu Suowei stiffened his neck and spoke in a firm voice, "For the past six months, I've relied on myself! I won't use a penny of Chi Cheng's money or connections! If I can't do it, you don't have to do anything, I'll just get out of here! Stay away from Chi Cheng! Never show up again!"
"Da Wei!" Jiang Xiaoshuai couldn't help but exclaimed.
The stakes are too high!
Chi Cheng's eyes suddenly became sharp. He stared at Wu Suowei and tightened his grip on his wrist.
The stubbornness in Wu Suowei's eyes did not diminish at all, but became brighter.
He looked back at Chi Cheng, his eyes filled with a determination that was almost pleading.
Let me try! Trust me this time!
Chi Cheng looked into his eyes. He was silent for a few seconds. Finally, he slowly loosened his fingers that were pinching Wu Suowei's wrist.
Wu Suowei felt relieved, knowing that Chi Cheng had tacitly agreed.
He immediately turned around and looked at Chi Yuanduan with a burning gaze: "Uncle Chi, do you dare to bet?"
Chi Yuanduan looked at the ignorant young man in front of him, then looked at his son's silent but obviously indulgent attitude, and the coldness and sarcasm in his eyes became even stronger.
He thought it was a farce.
Half a year? A kid with no foundation wants to turn things around on his own? It's a pipe dream!
But... this seems to be a good step, and also an opportunity to completely eliminate this "accident".
Half a year later, the boy left in disgrace, and Chi Cheng had nothing to say.
This will prevent the father and son from having a complete falling out.
"Okay." Chi Yuanduan finally spoke, his voice still cold and condescending. "I'll give you six months. After six months, if you're still the same as you are now, or if I discover that you've borrowed even a little bit of Chi Cheng's power..."
His eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, "I will let you know what 'you will suffer the consequences' means."
He deliberately emphasized the last four words, making them full of threat.
"It's a deal!" Wu Suowei immediately interjected, fearing that Chi Yuanduan would go back on his word.
He straightened his back, his eyes filled with determination to fight to the death.
Chi Yuanduan stopped looking at them, as if looking at them for even one more second would pollute his eyes.
He glanced at Chi Cheng coldly and said, "You'd better take care of yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and strode out of the villa with his silent assistant.
It was not until the car at the far end of the pool drove away from the villa and disappeared from sight that the suffocating high pressure in the living room suddenly dissipated.
"Huh..." Guo Chengyu let out a long breath and wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead. "Oh my god... I was scared to death... Comrade, you're awesome! You dare to challenge Mr. Chi to a military order! Half a year? Why don't you go to heaven?"
He walked over and patted Wu Suowei's shoulder hard.
Wu Suowei staggered after being hit by him. His tense nerves finally relaxed, his legs went weak, and he almost fell to the ground.
As the strength I had just exerted was gone, immense fatigue and fear instantly swept over my body.
Only then did he realize that the clothes on his back were completely soaked with cold sweat and stuck to his skin.
"Shit..." Wu Suowei gasped, feeling his heart still beating wildly, "I'm so scared... so scared..."
"You're still scared?!" Jiang Xiaoshuai rushed over and supported him, feeling both distressed and angry. "Half a year! What are you going to do in half a year?! Do you really think you're a business genius?! You don't even have the start-up capital!"
He stamped his feet in anxiety.
Wu Suowei leaned on Jiang Xiaoshuai, took a few breaths, but his eyes were extremely determined: "If you don't have it, then make some! I have hands, feet, and brains! I'm not afraid of anything!"
He raised his head and looked at Chi Cheng who had been standing there silently.
Chi Cheng was also looking at him.
His eyes were complex, filled with scrutiny, inquiry, and a hint of... elusive interest.
"Half a year?" Chi Cheng finally spoke, his voice unrecognizable as either emotional or emotional. "On your own? Without any money from me? A single connection?"
Wu Suowei nodded vigorously, his eyes stubborn: "Yes! I mean what I say! I don't need your help!" He must prove himself! Must!
Chi Cheng stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly curled his lips. That smile was a little cold, a little evil, and carried a sense of control and playfulness: "Okay, I'll wait and see."
He paused and added, "But, you live in my house and wear my clothes. Does that count as 'borrowing my power'? Hmm?"
Wu Suowei choked and his face turned red instantly.
Damn! Forgot about this!
He was just thinking about severing the business relationship and forgot that the most basic living security was also provided by Chi Cheng!
"I...I..." He stammered, speechless for a moment.
Chi Cheng stopped teasing him and turned to walk out the door, leaving behind a cold remark: "Starting tomorrow... go back to the clinic first. I'll be at home... waiting for you to come back."
He was using practical actions to show Chi Yuanduan his attitude of "cutting ties", and also to give Wu Suowei a starting point to "rely on himself".
Wu Suowei looked at Chi Cheng's back as he disappeared at the door, feeling mixed emotions.
Why is there a sense of loss, of being "kicked out"? But more of a determination to burn your boats.
Fine! Let’s go! I don’t believe it!
He stood up suddenly, and the fire in his eyes was rekindled.
"Xiao Shuai!" Wu Suowei grabbed Jiang Xiaoshuai's arm, his eyes gleaming frighteningly. "Does your clinic need any help? Just provide meals! I can do anything!"
Jiang Xiaoshuai was stunned by his arrest: "Ah? Odd jobs? You..."
"Yes! Odd jobs! Cleaning the toilets is fine!" Wu Suowei said firmly, "First, I'll take care of my food and lodging! Then... I want to make money! A lot of money!"
Guo Chengyu looked at Wu Suowei, who looked ready to do something big, then looked outside the door. He shook his head helplessly and said to Jiang Xiaoshuai, "Well, it seems this kid will have to live with you from now on. But don't you still have a crew?"
He pulled Jiang Xiaoshuai, who was still in a daze.
yes……
Wu Suowei looked at his phone.
In the past, I just thought of the crew as a place to earn some pocket money, but now...
If you want to go further...
This is also an opportunity.
Things have been too complicated recently, and he actually knows that Chi Cheng always helps him and Brother Nian adjust their shooting schedules due to some "personal reasons".
I have to pay attention now, not only to improve myself through Brother Nian, but more importantly, with money and fame, Mr. Chi will no longer have a reason to disagree, right?
not to mention……
There is also Wang Shuo, time waits for no one.
Chi Cheng...half a year...just wait and see!
