Chapter 178: The Book of Rites
Chapter 178
They actually played for a while and won a billion!!!
No wonder some people are willing to gamble away their entire fortune, but is it really that simple?
In the private room, Song Luokui heard Chi Yu chatting with that man and soon they started signing a contract with a contract amount of five billion. After that, the man even invited the two of them to have a meal.
Until two o'clock in the afternoon, the two sat in the car, and Song Luokui thought about it and said, "So...that one billion wasn't actually won by us, was it?" She suddenly felt a bit disappointed, as she had thought they were truly lucky today.
Chi Yu held her hand and kissed it, "We did win it, you're my lucky goddess."
"But just now..."
Chi Yu: "We did indeed win it, but if we hadn't won, he would still have given us that one billion."
Song Luokui: "So he set up this scene just to please you and make the project successful?"
Chi Yu shook his head and then nodded, "Not to please me, but to please you. Because you were happy, I was happy too. He did it to make sure the project went through, which is quite normal. Should I bring you along more often in the future?"
Song Luokui frowned, "You'll bring me along for business deals in the future? Wouldn't that be inappropriate? And I might not always be available."
Chi Yu: "If you're there just to have fun, then come along."
Without further considering the matter, Song Luokui changed the subject, "When are we going back?" The vacation was ending and she had to attend classes again.
Chi Yu: "Tomorrow morning. Do you want to go back and rest or go sightseeing somewhere?"
Song Luokui: "Let's go back and pack first, and we can go out for a stroll in the evening."
"Okay."
The next day, the two flew back to their country. The new Tian Yu office address had been renovated, and the formaldehyde and other safety inspections had been completed. Li Bei came over and asked Song Luokui when they would move in.
Song Luokui: "Find an auspicious date for us to move in. As for how to move, you can make the arrangements. Once we've moved in, we'll hold a celebratory event with food and drinks for everyone in the company. Those who are really too busy can skip it. Just let me know when it's set."
"Okay!"
"By the way, someone has been pursuing Zhou Qingrong recently," Li Bei added.
At first, Song Luokui didn't know who Zhou Qingrong was. "The Zhou Qingrong you're talking about is..."
Li Bei: "Oh, it's Zhou Qingrong."
Song Luokui: "For this, just let her manager handle it. Is there a no-dating clause in her contract?"
Li Bei shook her head, "No, but the person pursuing her seems to come from an influential family, but Zhou Qingrong isn't very willing. She has had meals with him twice, which were photographed and made entertainment news, even becoming a hot topic previously."
"The company was initially going to handle it calmly, but fearing fans would make too much noise, they said it was just a friendly meal, though some people didn't believe it. The person pursuing her has been in the news before, and Manager Yu wants to ask if you know him." She then showed Song Luokui a photo.
Song Luokui took a look and found the person somewhat familiar, but she didn't actually know him.
Li Bei: "Tonight that person has invited Zhou Qingrong out again, and it's hard for her to refuse. Previously when Zhou Qingrong refused, all her subsequent endorsements and resources were withdrawn."
Song Luokui stood up, "Tonight, huh? I'll go to the company tonight. I want to see what kind of person is forcing a girl to have meals with him. Is he coming to the company to pick her up directly? So shameless."
"I'll call and have them arrange for it to be at the company."
That evening, Song Luokui came to the company dressed in a black suit. Zhou Qingrong was already waiting for her and greeted her immediately, "Boss."
Song Luokui: "Has that person arrived yet?"
Zhou Qingrong glanced at her watch, "He said he'd be here at six. It's still a few minutes away. He might ask me to go down to the underground parking lot."
Song Luokui: "Just have him come up here. Tell him you won't go down if he doesn't come up." 𝗳r𝚎𝐞w𝐞𝚋𝗻𝗼vel.𝗰o𝐦
Zhou Qingrong bit her lip, "But he..."
Song Luokui put her hand on Zhou Qingrong's shoulder, "Don't worry, let's see who dares to mess with my people."
Zhou Qingrong: Suddenly felt that the boss looked really handsome!
She glanced at Song Luokui's side profile again. Her makeup today looked quite bold and handsome. If the boss weren't a woman, Zhou Qingrong might even want to marry her.
A few minutes later, Zhou Qingrong received a call. She looked at Song Luokui as she spoke on the phone, "You come up. Come up here to get me to go down. If you don't come up, I won't go down."
The person on the other end of the line was surprised. Was she threatening him? It sounded like a threat. So bold today. The man smirked, his smile laced with a hint of coldness. He would go up and see for himself.
Song Luokui sat in the lounge area near the entrance of the company, sipping a cup of hot tea. Zhou Qingrong in front of her looked a bit tense.
A man in a gray suit walked out of the elevator. He had his hands in his pockets, his hair slicked back with pomade. He looked decent enough. He walked straight through Tian Yu's entrance and told the receptionist, "Where's Zhou Qingrong? I'm looking for her."
Song Luokui immediately noticed the man and found him somewhat familiar, but she couldn't quite place him. He also had a rather unsavory look about him.
Zhou Qingrong stood up, "President Wei."
Song Luokui also stood up, "President Wei? Surname Wei?" The Wei family? Song Luokui frowned. If so, she knew why he was being so arrogant.
Zhou Qingrong: "Yes."
Wei Li, upon hearing the voice, immediately looked over, "Let's go."
Zhou Qingrong glanced at Song Luokui, who immediately stood in front of her, sizing up Wei Li. "So you're the one forcing my employee to have meals with you? How thick-faced are you?"
Wei Li's eyes lit up when he saw Song Luokui. He also checked her out, then asked Zhou Qingrong, "Is this a new artist you just signed? She looks so good. Forget you, she can have a meal with me today."
Song Luokui: This person must be deaf, not hearing her say "my employee" earlier.
Song Luokui smiled, "You want to have a meal with me?"
Wei Li: "Yeah. Is that not okay?"
Song Luokui nodded, "Of course it's okay. But I'll decide the venue." She wanted to invite him to eat stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat.
Wei Li: "Fine!"
Song Luokui started walking towards Wei Li. Zhou Qingrong immediately called out, "Boss."
Song Luokui turned to look at her, "Go back to work. Don't worry."
Wei Li followed beside her, "Boss? You're the boss of this company, but I thought you were a new signee. Are you interested in entering the entertainment industry? I can make you famous and let you experience being adored by thousands. Jewelry, accessories, you can choose whatever you want."
Song Luokui didn't speak to him. The two went straight to the underground parking lot. She got into her own car and told Wei Li, "Just follow my car."
Wei Li lowered his head and smiled, "So proud? I like that!"
He got into his own car and quickly followed her. What he didn't know was that another car was following behind him.
