Super Rich by Doing as You Please-Chapter 100 - 92: Turns Out He’s a Hidden Big Shot
The next morning, a meeting was underway at Xu Yun’s former company.
Gu Heng threw a huge tantrum at the meeting.
The reason was that the event proposal they submitted had been rejected by Pechoin.
Moreover, Pechoin had sent them a final notice.
If they couldn’t produce a satisfactory proposal within two days, not only would their contract be voided, but they would also be required to compensate Pechoin for related losses.
Gu Heng never imagined that after Xu Yun left, there would truly be no one in the entire company who could step up and take charge.
But what was the use of yelling?
After he was done yelling, the problem still wasn’t solved.
After the meeting, back in the solitude of his office, Gu Heng thought of Xu Yun.
He hesitated for a moment, then called the finance department.
"Have you paid Xu Yun yet?"
"No, President Gu. Per your instructions, we haven’t."
"Send him the full amount today."
"Understood."
After instructing the finance department to make the payment, he then called Xu Yun.
Xu Yun, who had been sound asleep, was jolted awake by his ringing phone, feeling groggy and irritable.
He glanced at the unfamiliar number and asked, "Who is this?"
"Xu Yun, it’s me."
Xu Yun asked, puzzled, "Xiaogu?"
"..."
Hearing this, the corner of Gu Heng’s mouth twitched with anger.
But he swallowed his anger. After all, he was the one who needed a favor.
He forced a smile and said, "About your final payment—I’ve already instructed the finance department to transfer it to you."
"Oh."
Xu Yun yawned and asked, "And? You want me to say thank you?"
"Can you give me the Pechoin event proposal you were working on?"
"Xiaogu, you must still be half-asleep. Stop talking nonsense and let me get back to sleep. Goodbye."
With that, Xu Yun hung up the phone.
Gu Heng: "..."
He was so furious that he smashed the cup on his desk!
However, after calming himself down, Gu Heng picked up his phone again and called his cousin, Su Mu.
A direct approach with Xu Yun hadn’t worked, so he decided to try an indirect route.
"Hello, Su Mu."
Gu Heng asked, "Are you busy right now? I need to ask you for a favor."
"What is it?"
"Could you talk to Xu Yun and convince him to come back to work?"
Gu Heng said, "I won’t meddle in your affairs with him anymore; I’ll just pretend I don’t know anything.
As long as he comes back, I’ll even agree to make him a manager."
"I really can’t help you with that."
Su Mu refused. "Is there anything else?"
She knew Xu Yun well enough to know there was absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter.
"Then how about this? You get him to give me the Pechoin proposal he has.
I’m willing to buy it. It’s not like it’s any use to him now, anyway."
"You’re dreaming. Xu Yun doesn’t need your chump change."
Su Mu laughed. "Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up. I’m watching a show."
"Fine, then." 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Gu Heng suddenly added, "By the way, your dad asked about you yesterday. I told him you were doing just fine. I didn’t tell him you’d left."
"Fine, I get it." Su Mu hung up, annoyed.
’He actually dared to threaten me!’
’Still, for him to take the initiative to call and show such weakness today, it seems his company really is in trouble now that Xu Yun is gone.’
’Talk about severing your own main artery with a layoff!’
’Serves him right!’
’But it’s too late for him now.’
She wasn’t the least bit scared by her cousin’s threat.
’Hmph. And he thinks he can buy the proposal with money?’
’Her dear cousin probably had no idea just how rich Xu Yun was now.’
’Speaking of Xu Yun, though... that guy slept most of yesterday away, and then he wasn’t home at night.’
’He stayed out all night again.’
She recalled their wild night two days ago, and her body still ached a little.
Moreover, whenever she’d looked in the mirror these past two days, she’d noticed her skin becoming more and more supple and smooth.
’If ’exercise’ could have this kind of effect, why would she even bother going to a salon for a spa treatment?’
’She could just do it with Xu Yun at home.’
...
After being woken up by Gu Heng, Xu Yun couldn’t get back to sleep.
Seeing that he was up, Ning Qian got his toothbrush and toothpaste ready before going to make breakfast.
After Xu Yun finished breakfast, he and Ning Qian were affectionate for a while. Then he drove to Li Jinshu’s company, found her, and signed the renovation contract.
Afterward, Li Jinshu, in her official capacity as the designer, left the office with Xu Yun to go inspect the site.
Xu Yun didn’t really have any specific design requirements in mind for the two-story house.
"I don’t know. You and Su Mu can discuss it and figure out the design."
In response to Li Jinshu’s question, Xu Yun said directly, "Decorate it however you want. In the end, just tell me how much it all costs, and I’ll pay for it."
"Really?"
Li Jinshu could hardly believe it. "I can decorate it in whatever style I like?"
"Really."
"SMOOCH!" Li Jinshu excitedly planted a kiss on Xu Yun’s cheek. "You’re the best!"
She had always designed houses for other people, but this time, even though the building was Xu Yun’s, she had complete creative freedom with no restrictions.
For a designer, this was undoubtedly the ultimate temptation.
So, as soon as she had sketched out the floor plan, she eagerly rushed back to the office to start designing, ready to create her own little kingdom, leaving Xu Yun completely behind.
Xu Yun didn’t mind at all.
Since it was still early, he decided to head to the fitness center for a workout.
He had dropped in when passing by before to get a membership card and do a fitness test, but he hadn’t officially started his training yet.
So he drove to the gym not far from Jinyuan District.
After parking in the garage, he took the elevator to the first floor, where the receptionist, Wang Sisi, greeted him enthusiastically.
