Chapter 157: Waiting for Outbreak_1<div>


    Trantor:549690339


    I nted andmine between Old Ma and Ye Mengyan.


    I was just waiting for the right time to let it slowly ferment, it would explode at some point.


    Next, I did not deliberately ask about too many things.


    Half an hourter, Gu Yuanzhou finally called me.


    “Come over!”<div>


    “I couldn’t find you at the business meeting room just now!”


    “At the restaurant, we’re having a drink!”


    “President Gu, did you sign the contract?”


    I asked in a hurry.


    He didn’t answer me, but just said indifferently,


    “I drank a bit too much,e over for a moment.”


    Then he hung up the phone.


    When I hurried to the scene, Mr. Zhou was still encouraging everyone to drink,


    “President Gu,e on, let’s finish this ss to celebrate our sessful signing!”


    I listened in a daze. Was the contract still signed?


    However, seeing Gu Yuanzhou unable to drink anymore, I quickly shielded him from epting any more drinks,


    “Mr. Zhou, President Gu has just been discharged from the hospital, and his body has not fully recovered. I’ll drink this ss for him.”<div>


    I gulped it down in one go.


    “Youngdy, you’re impressive! Since you’re so capable, why don’t we have a few more drinks?”


    These men wanted to pour their drinks down my throat.


    I didn’t y along, “Sure, let’s y dice,pare size, the loser drinks!”


    Maybe because I was a woman, these men were eager to try it out.


    “Keep to your word! No regretster on, it was your own choice.”


    I chuckled lightly and took out a set of dice from my bag.


    When Gu Yuanzhou and I used to deal with outside matters, we had many dining and drinking asions every day.


    When we were just starting out, we were easily manipted, so at the dinner table, we had toe up with some tricks, or we would have a hard time getting deals done.


    And this set of dice was my secret weapon for winning.


    Soon, under the men’s instigation, I started the first round of the game.


    The strategy of ying dice is to y with your mentality. I deliberately lost the first round and took a small sip.<div>


    Then, the men took turns losing…


    Half an hourter, they were all drunk and fell to the ground.


    I elegantly took a tissue to wipe the wine stains off the corners of my mouth, packing up the set of dice and putting it back in my bag.


    When I turned around, the deep eyes of Gu Yuanzhou were fixed on me.


    I knew about his alcohol tolerance.


    He wouldn’t get drunk from one or two sses.


    The reason why I helped him block the drinks was that he was recently poisoned and his stomach couldn’t bear excessive alcohol stimtion.


    I knew he was sober at this time.


    But my unnecessarily long disy seemed to shock him.


    “President Gu, shall we go back to the hospital now, or to the Maple Mansion?”


    “The hotel!”


    “Okay!”<div>


    After settling the bill, Gu Yuanzhou and I went to the hotel next door.


    I picked up my phone, intending to notify Old Ma, but after thinking about it, I decided not to.


    I was thinking that maybe there would be a good show tomorrow.


    After checking in, I personally escorted Gu Yuanzhou to the room.


    “President Gu, tomorrow morning I’ll have the driver take you to thepany.”


    Gu Yuanzhou stared at me for a long time, “Show it to me!”


    “What?”


    “The dice!”


    I hesitated for a moment, but still opened my bag and handed the dice to Gu Yuanzhou.


    Gu Yuanzhou held the dice and looked at them for a while, “Where did you buy them?”


    “Online! Is there a problem?”


    “No, it’s just that… my wife used the same thing before. You two are really so alike.”<div>


    “Eh, not that alike, it’s just that Mrs. Gu once taught me about it.”


    I looked at him for a long time,


    “Oh, what else did she teach you? Tell me about it!”


    “President Gu, it’s gettingte, and your body is not well. You should rest early.”


    Sometimes, the more you say, the more you expose. I’d rather say as little unnecessary nonsense as possible in front of him.


    “Did she ever mention me in front of you?”


    Gu Yuanzhou loosened his tie and sat on the sofa, his eyes revealing a bit of sadness.


    “Yes… briefly mentioned!”


    “What did she say about me?”


    “She said…President Gu, I don’t remember quite well! It was a long time ago, why don’t I tell you once I remember it.”


    “I signed that contract!”


    “Didn’t you understand my hint?”<div>


    “I’ve been following this deal for a long time, it has a very high profit margin. So, I had to get it.”


    Gu Yuanzhou squinted his eyes, a greedy light shone in them.


    This man was indeed obsessed with money.


    “But, there are tricks in that contract…”


    “I know. I took a careful look at the part where you spilled the coffee. It was a trap, so Iter reprinted one without any issues. Just because I’m ill doesn’t mean I’m stupid.”


    At this moment, Gu Yuanzhou seemed indeed calm and wise.


    I had to admit that this man truly had extraordinary talents in business.


    “But these people have poor characters, no moralpass, and they even deceive their partners?”


    Gu Yuanzhou just coldlyughed,


    “There are no fathers and sons in the business world! To make deals, sometimes friends are deceived, let alone partners. Let me tell you, the people you deal with are cunning. They’re all for profit, money-grubbing, and extremely vicious. Are there any good people? No, or maybe there are, but the good guys can’t make money. So, you have to learn with whom you deal and do business. Hence, you must be more cunning and ruthless than the crooks if you want to make money.”


    Gu Yuanzhou’s words were very realistic and calm.


    In the past, he had never said such things to me. Was he the one who changed? Or had I never really seen him clearly?


    “I understand, President Gu, you should rest early.”


    As I was about to leave, he said behind me, “Actually, you did very well today. You have a brighter future by my side.”


    I looked at him, said nothing, turned around, and left.


    The next morning.


    Gu Yuanzhou didn’t go to the hospital, he returned directly to thepany.


    I drove him back to thepany.


    Perhaps Ye Mengyan couldn’t contact Gu Yuanzhou and saw him appear with me. She couldn’t hide her panic.


    “Big Brother Gu, where were youst night? You weren’t in the hospital.”


    “I went to meet a client.”


    “You were gone all night?”


    “Negotiations, they take time.”


    Ye Mengyan didn’t dare to me Gu Yuanzhou, she just hinted with worry, “Big Brother Gu, you’re not well, how can you stay up all night? I’m really worried about you. I didn’t sleep all night… I made you some porridge, let me bring it to you.”


    I looked up unintentionally and met Ye Mengyan’s eyes.


    When she looked at me, her eyes seemed to be carrying a dagger.


    When I went downstairs to discuss work issues in my department, Ye Mengyan chased after me, “Where did you two sleepst night?”


    I gave her a faint look, then turned and walked forward, “Just the couple’s hotel next to Dihao.”


    Her face turned pale, she chased after me and asked, “Why would you go to that kind of hotel, what’s your motive?”


    “I didn’t book the room, Gu Yuanzhou did…”


    “Was he drunk at the time?”


    “Yes, he indeed drank.”


    “Song Xiaoyun, do you know what you’re doing? Do you really think that you can get him with these little tricks?”
