Chapter 122 – Fatty Wu got into trouble



“No!” He Xiyuan shook her head. “It’s my first day at work!” With that, she looked at the hands held together.

I immediately understood. I was still holding He Xiyuan’s hands tightly. Originally, I would often hold her hand, but she was younger then and I only treated her as a little sister. Now she had already become a big girl. Holding her hand now was a bit ambiguous. Although I was her gan-brother. I was not her true brother.

I quickly let go of my hands and smiled awkwardly, “Sorry.”

“It’s okay,” He Xiyuan shook her head a bit disappointedly. Then continued, “My dad’s leg had an issue again. He needed to come to Yanjing to get it treated. But then we got here and found out that we don’t have enough money at home, so I came out to work.”

“Why didn’t you call me!” Hearing that He-bobo, who is also my ganba got hospitalized and didn’t call me, I felt a bit unhappy in my heart.

“My dad said that he didn’t want to bother you guys anymore…” said He Xiyuan.

“How is this bothering! Our families already admitted each other as gan-families already, we should help each other when in trouble!” I said.

“Sorry…” He Xiyuan replied quietly when she saw that I got mad.

“Alright, don’t think about that now. Why did you come to work in Shuguang Corporation?” I asked.

“They were hiring office assistants here, and I thought that since Shuguang was a large corporation with good benefits, they shouldn’t trick people. That’s why I came. I didn’t think that…” He Xiyuan said in a troubled manner. “Thank you, Liu-dage, you saved me every time…”

I nodded, office assistants didn’t require too much of an educational background, they would normally just prepare tea, coffee, photocopies etc. However, I never would have thought that my, Liu Lei’s, gan-meimei would actually be bullied when she came to my company to work!

How did it go again? Enough is enough!

Fatty Zhang, it isn’t going to end up as simple as you being fired.

I called Uncle Zhao and explained the situation. I had already talked over it with Uncle Zhao beforehand, so he had already sent a new general manager from the headquarters to replace Fatty Zhang’s current position.

After Chu Gao beat up Fatty Zhang, he pulled him up and chucked him on the chair. Then Chu Gao said, “This fatty is too thick-skinned, I got so tired and only beat him up like this!”

Hearing that, I laughed. This Chu Gao is too hilarious. He’s complaining about being tired after beating someone up.

“Fatty Zhang, what else do you have to say? You used your power to bring your son into the company, allow him to use his powers to trouble customers. What’s worse is that you actually try to bully female employees in the company!” I looked at Fatty Zhang and said expressionlessly.

“You… So it’s you! You are Director Zhao’s son-in-law!” Fatty Zhang exclaimed after finally recognizing me. When Zhao Yanyan ended up in the hospital, he saw me once when he was going to the hospital with Zhao Junsheng to visit Zhao Yanyan.

“You don’t feel like you’re undeserving of the failure, right?” I asked.

Fatty Zhang nodded silently, then said, “I’ll resign!” Fatty Zhang thought to himself, since he did not stuff only a little money into his pockets these years, although he would lose both power and position, he would still be able to enjoy the second half of his life.

“Resign? I had planned to let you go originally, but it isn’t going to be so simple now!” I laughed coldly. “Do you think it’ll be fine after bullying my little sister?”

At this moment, Zhong Yang led a group of people in police uniform into the office.

“Zhong-ge, you came!” I said.

“Yeah, I brought the comrades from the economic investigation division over. It’s not really my business now, right?” Zhang Yang smiled.

“Originally it isn’t, but now it is. This fat *** committed attempted ****!” I said. Heh, now you’re pretty screwed, an economical crime with attempted ****. He will probably be imprisoned for at least thirty years, or even a lifetime.

I really hope that this fat *** was involved rather heavily in corruption, so he’ll be directly shot.

Fatty Zhang understood that he was truly screwed today. However, what he didn’t understand was that how I found him. Thus, he asked without giving up, “Even if you are destroying me, you have me make me understand why, right?”

“Then I’ll tell you. Your son just had to harass my wife, Zhao Yanyan, and even shamelessly proclaimed himself as your son!” I said coldly.

“That *******!” Fatty Zhang said furiously. “If I knew that it would happen, I wouldn’t have let him come to the company to embarrass me!”

“But isn’t the main reason for my anger. I also started a company myself, it’s called New Century Corporation, I wonder if you, Director Zhang, have heard of it?” I asked with a smile.

“Ah! So it’s like that! I understand now! I was confused at the time, just why did Shuguang cooperate with a small company like yours. I thought that the higherups did not investigate properly, so I thought that you guys would have to put up with it even if I block you guys off for a few days. I didn’t think it was due to this! It seems like I was too careless! Damn disappointing Zhang Liguang!” Fatty Zhang sighed.

“Bring him away!” Zhong Yang waved his hand, causing several officers to escort Fatty Zhang away.

“Why did you hit him so hard, causing him to look like a pig head! After he enters the detainment center, those that don’t know would think that us, the police, beat him up. Aren’t you making him look bad!” Zhong Yang laughed.

“No probably, he’s thick-skinned. It’ll stop swelling after two days!” I smiled.

“Oh yeah, do you have news of Wu Tian recently?” I asked.

“Don’t mention it! Don’t you know? Wu Tian got into trouble!” Zhong Yang shook his head.

“Trouble? What trouble?” I asked in confusion.

“It was last mouth. There were a few foreigners arguing with a child from our country. Wu Tian saw it, and directly beat up the foreigners without saying anything!” Zhong Yang shook his head and said.

“Wu Tian didn’t do anything wrong to someone who was bullying a child from our country!” I said.

“If that’s really the case, then that’s true! The main thing is that it wasn’t like that after my investigation later! The foreigners came to site visit our country for business purposes! They are all important political people from other countries and have huge backgrounds!” Zhong Yang sighed.

“Say, Zhong Yang! What’s with you? Can foreigners be cocky just because they have a background? Are you still from China?” I said angrily.

“If they really bullied the kid, then I would stand up even if I was fired from the police department! The most important thing is that that’s not what happened at all. The foreigners did nothing. The kid held a batch of flowers and was insisting on the foreigner buying. Due to language barriers, they couldn’t communicate, and the translator wasn’t there either. The foreigner thought the kid gave him the flowers, and so wanted to leave. However, the kid just refused no matter what and pulled on that foreigner’s clothes. The foreigner returned the flower to the kid, but the kid still refused to let him leave. With no other way, the foreigner could only push the kid away! However, Fatty Wu didn’t know the situation before beating him up!” Zhong Yang smiled wryly.

Chapter 121 – Stopped Supply



“No reason, the people that contacted me just revealed to me in a way that it was the decision of the higher-ups!” Chu Gao shook his head.

“The higherups’ decision!” I slammed the table and roared. “Don’t why have a contract, what right do they have to stop the supply!”

“Boss, don’t be angry first. How about we treat their higherups to a meal?” Chu Gao asked.

The reason I got angry was not because of them stopping the supply. IT was because Shuguang’s higherups actually took revenge for personal grudges using an official manner! I could already be sure that it was due to that Young Master Zhang, Zhang Liguang! What does he think Shuguang Corporation is? Something that belongs to his company?

“Treat my ***!” I said angrily. “Come with me to Shuguang Corporation’s Yanjing branch office. I do want to see just who dares to block us off! We have the contract, if it doesn’t work, then we’ll sue them!”

“Sue? Boss, we are just a small starting company…” Chu Gao hesitated.

“Hehe, if we sue Shuguang, then our company will immediately become famous. This might even be a chance!” I laughed.

Doing that wouldn’t be sinister of me. Shuguang is my company, since it already had a reputation, there shouldn’t be anything wrong with doing something that both hurt and benefited myself at the same time, right!

Actually, I also wanted to use this incident to give a warning to the directors of other branch companies, telling them not to do whatever they want because they had the power to.

As for this Zhang Liguang’s father. Hehe, I’ll treat him as an unfortunate sacrifice. No matter how capable he is, failing to teach his son properly and bringing his son to the company to use the company’s power for his own benefits was enough to fire him.

In the afternoon, I went to Shuguang Corporation’s headquarters in Yanjing city with Chu Gao.

Chu Gao was very shocked when he saw the fanciness within the Bentley. He never would have thought that his life changed so much. He turned from an unknown student to the director of a company, and was even going to negotiate with Shuguang!

“I want to see the person in charge!” I said directly to the receptionist.

“Sir, do you have an appointment?” the receptionist asked.

“No, we are Shuguang’s business partners, New Century Corporation,” I said.

“Then, I can only help you ask our Director Zhang if he has time!” said the receptionist.

The receptionist made a call, then said to me after a while, “Sorry, Director Zhang is reviewing documents…”

Reviewing documents! Does he not know Shuguang’s employee regulations? Customers comes first! Which means that all tasks should have the customers as the priority! This Director Zhang actually used reviewing regulations as an excuse to refuse to meet the customers.

Chu Gao looked at me helplessly. He seems like he has been shut up before.

I smiled and said to Chu Gao, “Since he’s refusing to see us, then we’ll go up to find him!”

“Gentlemen, you can’t go up…” The receptionist quickly stopped us.

I took out a card from my wallet and handed it to the receptionist, “Headquarter inspection!”

The receptionist momentarily blanked after receiving the card. The hand she used to hand the card trembled a little. This was the card with the highest power from the headquarters, it provided the right to check the accounts and other things of any Shuguang branch. This was something she had been taught the first day she arrived at work. She didn’t think that she would see it for the first time after working for more than three years.

“Sorry sir, please wait a moment. Let me just note it down!” The receptionist said in a worked up manner, then swiped the card before returning it to me respectfully.

“C’mon, let’s go up now!” I said to Chu Gao.

Chu Gao looked at me in disbelief…

The interior of Shuguang Corporation the safest in the world. You required authority cards regardless of taking the elevator or opening a door. My card could do anything.

That was why not many people questioned us after Chu Gao and I got in. Shuguang Corporation was so large, there were several hundred people in the branch, it was impossible for everyone to know each other. That’s why the staff couldn’t help but use these cards to identity each other. Normal employees would only have the right to take the elevator, open their office and their cabinet.

“Why do you…” Chu Gao pointed at the card in my hand and asked weirdly. “Why do you have their card?”

“Oh? This? Hehe, Zhao Yanyan’s father is a high-level person at Shuguang Corporation’s headquarters. The card is for her, I just borrowed it!” I said with a smile.

“So that’s why! You scared me, I thought you were really from their headquarters!” said Chu Gao.

“What if I really am?” I asked.

“If you really are, then fire the general manager here! Just what sort of attitude is this!” Chu Gao said angrily.

When I arrived at the general manager’s office on the twelfth floor, I turned the handle. It was actually locked!

What the hell! Shuguang Corporation has clear regulations stating that offices are not allowed to be locked during office hours!

I did not bother with knocking. I directly swiped my card, causing the door to open.

“Who!” A voice yelled out from within.

At the time, I already pushed open the room door and saw a fatty making move on a female employee. The female employee’s clothes have already been ripped and was furiously resisting the fatty’s attacks.

“What are you doing!” I interrogated.

“Who are you, how did you enter? Hurry up and **** off, don’t ruin my business!” The fatty said in rage, and continued to attack that female employee as if no one else was there.

“Save me!” Seeing that someone entered, the female employee furiously resisted the fatty.

“Let her go!” I walked up and pushed the fatty away.

“Are you okay!” I looked at the girl being assaulted. Her uniform was already ripped. Thus, I said to Chu Gao, “Give her your coat!”

Chu Gao showed a “why me”, but he still took his coat off and handed it to me.

I helped the girl put on the coat. The girl brushed her messed up hair, then raised her head and exclaimed, “Liu-dage, it’s you!”

I carefully checked the girl beside me out. There was a very familiar feeling just now, but I didn’t look at her carefully.

It was actually He Xiyuan! I nearly couldn’t recognize her. They say that a girl changes a lot when she grows up. After not seeing her for a few years, she actually became even more beautiful, her body also became more voluptuous, turning her from a pretty girl to a mature young woman.

The anger in my heart burned even more. I sent a flying kick towards the fatty and swore, “******* fat ***, you actually dared to bully my, Liu Lei’s, little sister!”

The fat *** fell back from the chair and onto the floor. Chu Gao was already annoyed with this fat ***, so he no longer held back after seeing me make a move. He immediately rushed up and beat up the fat ***, causing the fat *** to turn even fatter.

“Why did you come to Yanjing city!” I held He Xiyuan’s hand and pulled her down to sit on the sofa. I’ll just leave that fat *** for Chu Gao to let his anger out on.

He Xiyuan did not say anything, and merely blushed. I was very confused, “Did that fat *** already…”

Chapter 120 – Science and Technology Exhibition



“Let’s go to see what new products that are being exhibited at our company!” I said.

“Our company?” Zhao Yanyan asked in surprise.

“Shuguang Corporation!” I explained.

“Isn’t that yours?” asked Zhao Yanyan.

“What’s mine is yours! Dummy! What’s more, you also have shares in Shuguang Corporation!’ I patted Zhao Yanyan’s head and replied.

“He…” Zhao Yanyan happily leaned by my side.

When I passed by New Century Corporation’s counter, I saw Professor Dong explain something to a foreigner very excitedly, while Chu Gao was also busy here and there as the person in charge.

When Professor Dong saw me walk very, he introduced the foreigner to me very happily, “ This is Mr. Frederick from Italy!”

“Hello, Mr. Frederick, I am the technical consultant for New Century Corporation,” I reached out my hand friendily.

“Hello, it is very nice to meet you!” Frederick said using rigid Chinese.

“Xiao Liu, Mr. Frederick is very interested in our OCR recognition system. He wants to cooperate with us to develop one for Italian,” said Professor Dong in excitement.

Hearing that, I said to Mr. Frederick with a nod, “We can satisfy your request. It is very easy if it is just to recognize printed text because Italian only 21 letters in the Italian langue, but it would be a bit difficult if we had to recognize handwritten text. However, it isn’t impossible!”

“That’s great! If it’s possible, then let’s talk in detail after the exhibition ends!” Frederick said happily.

Professor Dong was very happy. He could be more excited when he saw that his research result was recognized.

I talked to Professor Dong for a bit, then left with Zhao Yanyan first.

“Look! That’s Shuguang Corporation’s counter!” Zhao Yanyan pointed to a large area at the center of the exhibition hall.

I smiled, as expected of Shuguang Corporation. Not only did they get the best spot, the size of it was also several times that of other people’s.

Shuguang Corporation was exhibiting several new CPU models and a new hard disk driver in terms of hardware, while the software includes Shuguang Office 2000 and several business softwares.

This was just a small portion of what Shuguang was introducing to the market this year.

“How is it, not bad, right!” I pointed to the Shuguang Office that was being run on the display machine.

“Not bad,” Zhao Yanyan said after a glance.

“What do you mean not bad? This is the most advance in the world!” I said.

“Do you think I don’t know? The next generation’s product is already in Shuguang’s lab. It just hasn’t been shown yet!” Zhao Yanyan glanced sideways at me and said. “I really don’t know how you developed my dad into a huge evil merchant!”

“Evil merchant? Hehe, we just don’t want to cause any scientific disasters. Things that are too advanced are not suitable for the current technological level,” I said.

“Tsk, whatever,” Zhao Yanyan decided not to argue with me.

Just as Zhao Yanyan and I were chatting, a voice interrupted us.

“Hello, beautiful lady, what do you think about our company’s products?” A young man wearing very stylish clothing walked over.

Our company? Zhao Yanyan momentarily blanked, then wanted to laugh, our company again!

“You are?” Zhao Yanyan asked.

“I am the marking manager of Shuguang Corporation’s Beijing branch, Zhang Liguang! I am pleased to serve this beautiful lady,” Although the young man said it in a very decent manner, the gaze that this Zhang Liguang looked towards Zhao Yanyan with was filled with lust.

Zhao Yanyan also noticed this, and shook her head in disgust, “No need, we’ll see for ourselves.”

“What? You don’t believe me?” With that, Zhang Liguang was about to grab hold of Zhao Yanyan. “Little girl, gege can give you a computer of the newest model!”

“What are you doing!” I walked up and pushed away Zhang Liguang’s lecherous claws.

Seeing that I spoke, Zhang Liguang stopped pretending to be well-mannered. He checked me out and said, “Who are you?”

“I’m her boyfriend,” I said.

“I didn’t ask you what’s your relationship with her. I’m asking what your identity is,” Zhang Liguang immediately added.

“I am New Century Corporation’s consultant,” I answered. I wanted to see what this gguy meant by that.

“New Century Corporation’s consultant! Heh, so amazing, but I’ve never heard of it!” Zhang Liguang laughed coldly. “Even a puny white collar dares to fight with me for a woman, I, Young Master Zhang, has never failed to get a woman!”

Hearing how cocky this guy sounds, I wondered, just how did this ******* join Shuguang Corporation? Thus, I asked, “What right does a puny marketing manager have to get cocky with me!”

“What happened, Young Master Zhang!” Another young man came over, he also dressed in a rather fake, but well-mannered way.

“Oh? It’s Young Master Yan! Your bro, I, got interested in this bird. How is it? Bro’s taste is pretty good, right!” Young Master Zhang said proudly.

“Not bad! She’s truly not bad! This bird looks pretty cute!” Young Master Yan nodded.

Seeing that the two of them were acting so supercilious and said whatever they wanted in front of Zhao Yanyan and I, I felt slightly enraged. However, since this was a public location and I represented New Century Corporation, there would be some consequences if I hit him. What’s more, since he was someone from Shuguang, I naturally had to treat it as an internal issue.

“Yanyan, let’s go, speaking with these sort of people is wasting our time!” I held Zhao Yanyan’s hand.

“Wait!” Young Master Yan immediately blocked my path. “This little girl, stop pretending, let’s be blunt, aren’t you with this brat for money? Although our Young Master Zhang is the market manager of Shuguang, his old man is the general manager of Shuguang Corporation’s branch office in Yanjing! Being with him is so much better than with this brat!”

So it was due to this! I was wondering how this sort of scum could get into Shuguang and become a department manager! So it was due to relationships.

Hearing Young Master Yan’s words, Zhao Yanyan nearly laughed out loud. However, Zhao Yanyan did have a good temper, so she didn’t’ get mad. She only said coldly, “I’m not interested.”

I casually pushed Young Master Yan to the side and said, “Do you hear that? My wife’s not interested!”

“New Century Corporation, right? Just wait, I’ll make it so that you cannot stay in Yanjing city! Heh! No computing companies dare to offend me, Young Master Zhang! Just wait for death!” Young Master Zhang said cockily.

I felt a sense of depression in my heart. Shuguang Corporation was an international corporation, but a general manager in a city actually became similar to a local tyrant, and his son actually treated this as something to get cocky about.

Shuguang Corporation was huge, it was unavoidable for it to walk onto this path. It seems like it was about time to deal with this.

“Boss, a problem came up with the computer sales department!” Chu Gao found me and said urgently.

“What’s the problem?” I asked.

“Shuguang Corporation’s Yanjing branch suddenly stopped the supply for us!” said Chu Gao.

“Stopped supply? Why!” I asked.

Chapter 119 – The Competition with Meng Qingqing



“I told you, I don’t like you! Why are you still pestering me?” The girl said coldly.

“Heh, you’re still thinking about that brat, aren’t you? He went to enjoy his life, yet you’re waiting here dumbly! He has gone to Yanjing city for so long, has he looked for you!” The young man laughed coldly.

“It’s none of your business! I do what I like!” The girl was still not moved.

“What’s so bad about me! Why can’t you give me a chance! I have done so much for you, and even gone into jail!” said the young man.

“Did you do it for me? You were clearly harming other people!” The girl said in disgust.

“Heh! It’s fine that you don’t accept me right now! After that brat, Liu Lei, dies, let’s see what hopes you have left!” The young man said cockily.

“He won’t die! Dream on!” The girl said plainly.

“You’ll know very soon whether I’m dreaming or not! Hahaha! The young man laughed loudly.

After the girl left, a teenage boy came over, “Liang-ge, since she’s not giving you face at all, do you need me to get someone to…”

“Alright now, before the plan succeeds, you better not cause trouble for me! Did you forget how what brought your old man down?” said the young man.

“I really don’t know what’s good about that brat, Liu Lei, why do they all love him so much!” The teenage boy said angrily.

“Oh yeah, there’s news from Gotou Mitsuo. The research on the DNA medicine is nearly completed, we just have to hold it in a bit more, then we will be able to take revenge. Gotou Mitsuo already promise us that he will help us get the Japanese nationality!” said the young man.

“Thank you, Liang-ge!” The teenage boy said happily.

While I was very busy, Xu Qingwei brought me an extremely exciting news. The research on spaceship supporting spatial jumps have already been completed. It was already no worse than the spaceship the Animasians used to visit Earth last time. The spaceship had already entered the final testing phase.

It seems like I truly made the decision to put Xu Qingwei there. I wouldn’t never have thought that he truly had a huge effect. Even Sun Sikong praised him a lot.

Sun Sikong used an autopilot system along with a filming system to do a machine-controlled trial. He succeeded to fly out of the solar system, use spatial jumps multiple times, then flew back, causing Sun Sikong to be unusually happy.

Now, Sun Sikong was going to do the last fine-tuning before the spaceship would be able to fy with people within.

New Century Computer Store and Qingmeng Computer Store pretty much opened at the same time. Chu Gao never thought that the people form Shuguang Corporation responsible for attending to him were so enthusiastic, causing him to get a bit shocked.

Shuguang’s service attitude was already the best in the world since it was one of the policies I was completely insistent on. What’s more, since I told Uncle Zhao beforehand, Chu Gao was able to get a promotion price very easily.

Although Dell was not as famous as Shuguang, it was pretty much the same with Shuguang in terms of hardware. Most of the parts used were made by Shuguang, while the pre-installed operating system was Shuguang 98.

That’s why, Shuguang had a brand advantage over all. Yet, Dell’s branding wasn’t bad either, so it was all left down to Chu Gao’s sales methods.

As for Mengqing, they were clearly fighting back. Not only did they print a lot of pretty flyers to hand around school, they also gifted some accompanying equipment like mousepads, USB extension lines, earphones etc.

“Boss, do you think we should give some present or something?” asked Chu Gao.

“Since Mengqing is already giving these out, it’ll seem like we’re like sheep if we do the same. What’s more, the effects wouldn’t be too great either. I think we should come up with unique ideas! For example, we could do add some value into our services!” I replied. “For example, we could do something like having a free protective screen sticking service when they buy laptops!” I explained some of my experiences in my previous life, “Right now, the notebooks are pretty much just covered in one layer of paint. If they are not protected well, it is very easy for the color to come off. We can stay a transparent protective screen on it, making it look nice, while not affecting the usage!”

“As expected of boss! Why didn’t I think of it! This is a good idea! Let me go and prepare it!” said Chu Gao.

Since Professor Dong was able to get the funds, his research into OCR technology was put on track. In the meantime, I only gave the researchers a few tips as the honorary consultant. Most of it was completed by themselves. However, these few tips already had a key effect on the entire research.

“I already used our research project to apply to participate in the National Computing Scient and Technology Exhibition this time. I have a few invitations for the opening. How is it, are you interested in going together?” Professor Dong said with a smile.

“Me? That’s not so good, I’m just a consultant in name!” I said.

“What’s not good about it! Hehe, your suggestions had a key effect for our project! It could be said that you were of a huge important! Here’s two invitations, bring your girlfriend together next Friday!” Professor Dong handed two invitations to me.

“Alright!” I nodded and put away the invitations.

In the blink of an eye, the Computing Science and Technology Exhibition opening has arrived.

Zhao Yanyan and I arrived at the City’s Exhibition Center together. There was already a large number of cars parked at the entrance. Although economy cars made up the bulk of it, there were plenty of expensive cars as well. It seems that there were quite a few rich and powerful companies that came to enter the exhibition.

I held Zhao Yanyan’s hand and entered the exhibition hall. At this moment, it was already filled with guests from all around. Some of them were people that have entered the exhibition, but most of them were invited here to have a look. These people might very well become potential guests for the companies putting on an exhibition.

An employee from Su’s was introducing several digital cameras and filming equipment to the guests at Su’s Corporation’s counter. Under my secret support, Su’s was able to gain a lot of the leading technology in the digital industry. It was already no worse than any companies from other countries in the world.

There was a large poster of Su Yingzi behind the counter. She was smiling faintly as she held up the new DV. I couldn’t help to dumb out after seeing that.

“What, you miss Su-jiejie?” Seeing me like that, Zhao Yanyan asked with a smile.

“Mhmm, a little, we haven’t met in so long!” I sighed.

“Actually the money you have now is enough for us to spend through several lifetimes, you can tell Su-jiejie to not work so hard to earn money!” said Zhao Yanyan.

“Xiao Zi only likes acting, perhaps, when she’s tired of it, she will come back,” I shook my head. “If it wasn’t for Uncle Su, it would be hard for Xiao Zi to remain so pure in the entertainment industry.”

“Hubby, aren’t you even more amazing than Uncle Su? Who would dare to have any ideas about Su-jiejie since she became your woman!” Zhao Yanyan smiled.

“He, your hubby lays too much of a low profile. A kind person guys bullied!” I laughed.

“You’re kind? It’s pretty good if you don’t bully someone else,” Zhao Yanyan also laughed.

Regarding the lack of updates

Alright, so I’ve been getting quite a few messages here and there about why there hasn’t been any updates, am I dropping Very Pure and Ambiguous: The Prequel etc. The first thing I’m going to do is point you to this announcement I wrote up before.

Since the ones that have been continuously pestering me about it obviously read the link, here are the other stuff that came up:
1) I had a surgery on my toe due to inflammation and infection during Easter
2) I’ve been having really long shifts for the past few weeks, so I’ve been barely going online.
3) We were going to move the servers last week, so Silva asked us not to post anything. Then, due to time issues, we ended up having to move it yesterday, we are advised not to post anything until the server is registered and everything runs smoothly (which would take 2 days or so).

i.e. Lots of stuff came up in real life and with the site, I have the chapters translated and you’re getting them all this weekend.

Chapter 118 – Meng Qingqing



I thought about this name in my heart. Although I didn’t know her background, it was as Wang-ge said, this girl is definitely not simple!

I thought back to Wang-ge’s expression back then. Perhaps he still knows something that he didn’t tell me!

I returned to the bar once again and found Wang-ge.

“Wang-ge, is there something that you haven’t told me?” I said at Wang-ge and went straight to the point.

My aura caused Wang-ge to blank, then reply, “Young Master Liu, I didn’t hide it from you intentionally, I just didn’t want to cause trouble for you.”

“It already is trouble, I saw her today! She used sixteen million to bid for two shops! Sixteen million, does she need to come out to sell herself!” I said.

“Ah!” Wang-ge was also shocked. He was someone of the middle-class, but he couldn’t possible take out so much money in one go!

“Young Master Liu, actually, after you left that day, she hit all the money that Lil’ Three gave him in anger, as if she was furious, then drove away! She drove a Ferrari sportscar!” said Wang-ge.

It seems like there must have been some sort of misunderstanding! However, what could it be? From the looks of it, it was certain that Meng Qingqing definitely did not lack money! But what was it for?

Could the rich girl have come out to have fun? That didn’t seem like it either. Who would give their first time out for fun!

Could it be the legendary split personality disorder? But she seems rather normal!

My mind was in a mess.

Putting it all at the back of my mind, I got Chu Gao to establish a business service provide. Since we didn’t need a lot of the shops, I chose to rent them out.

Chu Gao established a standard for the rents and regulations for the property management according to the location and size of the shops, it was to be handled by the newly established New Century Commercial Region Business Service Provider.

Since pretty much all of the shops on the business street belonged to New Century Corporation, the name of the business street was also changed to “New Century Avenue”.

Yet, the computer sales shop that Chu Gao planned was placed in a shop that didn’t have that good of a location. This sort of company did not reply on the location of the shop, rather, it relied on reputation.

Ever New Century Corporation was established, Chu Gao set the office beside the two company-styled shops that Meng Qingqing had bought. That was because the shops here were all long-office styled once, very suitable for running a company.

Employing people came next. The thing Huaxia lacked the least was talented people, especially in Yanjing city, which was full of them. Thus, we very quickly had enough employees. Chu Gao got a headhunter company to employ a few experienced people as the managers and directors for the higherups, while the other employees all applied to get in.

Meanwhile, the two shops beside New Century Corporation has already been officially opened after being refurnished, while the first floor of the shop on the left was already being prepared, most likely for a shop.

I looked at the two shops that were linked together with interest. It was Qing Meng Limited. I wonder what kind of business would it do.

A red Ferrari was parked in front of it.

I watched everything as I sat in a Bentley that wasn’t that far away.

I looked down at my watch, it was already five something at night. Meng Qingqing should be coming out soon. Through Chu Gao’s observations these few days, Meng QIngqing would always leave the company at this hour.

Just as I was thinking, the figure that has been in my dreams appeared. Meng Qingqing walked out from the company.

I opened the car door and walked over.

Meng Qingqing momentarily blanked after seeing me.

“Miss Meng, this one wants to invite you to dinner, I wonder…” I said with a smile.

“What did you come here for?” Meng Qingqing glared at me coldly and said, “Aren’t you afraid of me calling the police to arrest you?”

“Why would they arrest me?” I asked.

“You know yourself,” said Meng Qingqing.

“I don’t know,” I replied.

“You ***** me,” Meng Qingqing said expressionlessly.

“****? The bar can prove that you did it willingly, it’s getting a prostitute at worse…” I said with a shrug.

“You!” Meng Qingqing was extremely angry. “This isn’t important! It is if I say it is! My wish to send you to jail is enough as long as I want to!”

“Such an opinionated girl…” I muttered. It seems like she truly is a rich person’s daughter from how proud she was as she spoke.

“What did you say?” Meng Qingqing heard my mutter.

“Nothing, I said you’re pretty,” I replied.

“There’s no need for you to say that this lady is pretty!” Meng Qingqing snorted. “I won’t let you off. We’ll see!” With that, she opened the door to her Ferrari.

I found it rather funny. What was that supposed to mean? Was she declaring war on me? Just as I was thinking, she turned the Ferrari around and charged towards me.

****, this girl is too vicious, right? She wants to kill me? I immediately jumped to the side.

“You’re got some moves!” Meng Qingqing stopped the car and looked at me.

“I don’t want you to be widowed at such a young age,” I replied.

“Heh! I can’t expect anything else from you,” With that, Meng Qinqing slammed down on the pedal and sped off.

“Boss, I didn’t think that Qingmeng also started a computer sales company, and it is in cooperation with Dell! I never would have thought that they also thought about student machines. Dell had introduced a model that was rather good for its price, the company is probably going to open these few days,” Chu Gao said with a troubled expression.

“Oh? Why did it turn out like this! It seems like this Meng Qingqing is not simple!” I nodded.

Chu Gao was rather worried, he thought to himself. Boss can’t be wanting to stop his project, right! That means that his previous hard work would be wasted. This was his first project!

At this moment, I started considering in my heart. If I wanted to give Meng Qingqing a favor, I could just cancel this computer sales project plan. However, it was hard to say whether Meng Qingqing would accept my favor. Most importantly, I wanted to come into contact with Meng Qingqing right now, and not just continuously avoid her. If I wanted to avoid her, then we would never come into contact with each other. Only business competition would cause me to come into frequent contact with Meng Qingqing. This way, I made my decision. I smiled and said, “Don’t change our plan! We have to do it better than them! Go and contact Shuguang Corporation, let’s cooperate with Shuguang Corporation!”

“Shuguang? Would they cooperate with a small company with us?” Chu Gao asked in confusion.

“Definitely!” I patted Chu Gao shoulders. “Don’t underestimate yourself, we are actually not a small company! Hehe!”

Chu Gao thought to himself, that’s true, we invested nearly five hundred million into the shops, is that little!

“Okay Boss! I’ll go to make the plan now and prepare to talk with Shuguang!” Chu Gao said excitedly.

“You have to believe in yourself!” I encouraged. “Oh yeah, you have to keep paying attention to Mengqing and report their direction to me!”

“Understood, boss!” Chu Gao answered.

After Chu Gao left, I smiled. Meng Qingqing, aren’t you very proud, then I’ll let you be proud! From now on, I’ll do whatever you do, I’ll force you to submit.

I felt like I was rather sinister by doing this, but there was no helping it, sometimes, you didn’t have to keep letting her get her way in order to gain a girl’s heart.

Chapter 117 – I don’t want any of the ones she wants



Although this bid was public, it was only for the relatives of staffs at the school and some students with the ability. The reason for this was because the school didn’t want people from the society to enter.

However, Huaxia University was a place of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, there are plenty of students with powerful backgrounds, so there was an ocean of people at the auction.

“Boss, it seems like today seems rather difficult!” Chu Gao said as he looked at the room full of people.

“Hehe, whether it is going to be difficult is the business of you, the general manager. I only look at results! Which is the ownership of a hundred percent of the shops!” I patted Chu Gao’s shoulders and said. “No need to worry about the money, just call out the price as you like!”

Chu Gao nodded, he already understood the importance of his responsibility.

Although I faced it with the attitude of messing around, since I’m going to do it, I had to do it to the very best. After discussing a bit with Chu Gao and Huang Wenjing, we decided the name of the new company to be New Century Corporation.

The reason we chose this name was because I treated this company as a completely new beginning. I hoped that it would be different to my other two companies. Chu Gao was a talented person that I had faith in, but he still lacked experience. He was different from Zhao Junsheng and Su Yuanchao. The two of them were old foxes that had been in the business world for half their lives, I could let them manage a large corporation that was quickly expanding without any worries, but Chu Gao was only someone that just got into it. That’s why, I didn’t want his success to come too quickly. I hoped that he can use his own abilities to turn New Century Corporation into a new business mothership that was no worse than Shuguang and East Asia Motion.

As for the shares, I decided to give 5% to Chu Gao. Chu Gao didn’t refuse, since he knows that his fate will be closely linked with New Century in the future.

“4 million, Guangwei offers 4 million!” said the auctioneer.

“4.1 million!”

“4.3 million!”

I signaled Chu Gao, causing him to raise the plate, “5 million!”

Everyone on scene immediately looked towards Chu Gao, this is too crazy for him to add 700 thousand in one go, right?”

“5 million once, 5 million twice, 5 million three times. Deal! Congratulations New Century Corporation for purchasing shop a01!” Chu Gao had already gotten the shop when everyone was still shocked.

Due to Chu Gao making a good start, the price of the second shop instantly shot up and reached the price of 5.5 million.

“5.6 million!” that Guangwei company called again.

Yang Wei! That person was called Yang Wei! The name flashed across my mind, he was the karate club captain or something that went against Ding Wenfeng!

It seems like this person’s ability shouldn’t be underestimated!

However, we were determined to get everything this time. When Chu Gao named the price of 6 million, Yang Wei clenched his teeth. 6 million was indeed a bit too much for a shop of 220 square meters.

After that, New Century used the same method to get nearly half of the shops. The actions of New Century caught everyone’s attention, a lot of people even directly gave up after Chu Gao called out a price.

From the looks of New Century, anyone could tell that New Century was going to be very successful in the future!

Yang Wei clenched his teeth in anger. He got internal news that Liu Yue’s engagement with Situ Liang was cancelled, causing him to get extremely happy! This way, he had a chance to enter into the core of the Liu family! As long as he was capable enough, it wasn’t an issue for him to become the new family head. This investment in this business street also became the place where Yang Wei wanted to train himself. However, it was obvious that the New Century Corporation was determined to take down everything by themselves!

“7 million!” The following shop was a 350 square meter shop with a basement, the starting price was 6.8 million.

“8 million!” A female voice rang out. This was the only person aside from Chu Gao who dared to put a price increase of a hundred thousand! The entire room was shocked, did a black horse just pop out?

My head buzzed! It’s her! It’s actually her! This voice was still fresh in my mind.

I slowly turned over and saw that beautiful face once again. It’s her, it was the girl that I stole the first time from like brute! She dressed very formally today, unlike the fieriness of the other day at all.

If it wasn’t because I could remember her face clearly, I would even thought that I recognized her wrongly. However, my instincts told me that it couldn’t be a mistake, it was her! However, would a girl that can take out 8 million go and sell her body?!

My mind instantly turned blank. When Chu Gao, who was beside me, was just about to raise his plate, I quickly stopped him and shouted, “Put it down, don’t compete with her!”

I don’t know why I had such an unusual action, but I really lose it a bit. My voice was very loud, causing many of the people to turn and look out way.

The girl probably heard it as well and turned around weirdly. It was obvious that her body froze and her face turned pale when she saw me. She stared at me fiercely for a while, then turned back slowly.

“Boss, what happened?” Chu Gao looked at me, who had an equally pale expression, and said.

“Nothing,” I sighed. “Just let her have the shop.”

“Boss, aren’t we going to get everything?” Chu Gao asked.

“Just don’t ask, I don’t want any of the ones she want,” I said slowly.

Although Chu Gao didn’t understand, he still nodded.

The following shop was a connected shop to the previous one. She still got it with the price of 8 million.

Afterwards, she did not bid for anything else, so Chu Gao got everything with a high price. It seems like her target was just those two shops.

16 million! This wasn’t something that a normal student could afford! Just who was she?

Due to New Century’s weird action of letting others have two shops worth 8 million, other companies entered the bids once again after they reacted, while Chu Gao started his oppressive price calling once again.

This caused the companies to regret it a lot. They lost two chances for no reason.

What they didn’t understand was why New Century intentionally allowed others to have those two shops, but it didn’t matter anymore, because the auction as already finished.

Aside from New Century Corporation as the biggest winner, the girl was the only other buyer.

After the auction finished, although I wanted to sign the contract as New Century’s representative at the same time as the girl, I still decided to let Chu Gao go after thinking about my identity.

“When you sign the contract, help me take a look at her name,” I said to Chu Gao.

Chu Gao nodded, and thought, so Boss got interested in that girl, no wonder he wanted to let her have the shop!

Chu Gao instantly became a famous person in Huaxia University. Both the journalists from the school newspaper and the school tv channel all recorded this classical moment.

Chu Gao was pretty good mentally, so he could act naturally towards the media, even though it was his first time. He even had a smile on his face. This caused all the girls in Huaxia University that wanted a rich boyfriend to try and find out about Chu Gao’s background!

You have to know, New Century actually paid 4 hundred something million!

Chu Gao was also able to sneak a peak at the girl’s contract when they were signing it.

Meng Qingqing!

Chapter 116 – Business Street



I thought about it briefly. Although the starting point was very low, having this thought was a good idea! Starting a business was an enjoyment of the process, if I really set the starting point high, then it would have the reverse effect!

“This idea is pretty good!” I praised, “We can cooperate with some famous computer companies, and only sell some branded computers. This way, the after-sales service would be much more convenient, allowing us to avoid a lot of unneeded trouble!”

“Yeah! I’m also thinking that! Also, right now, some universities in Hong Kong has already started to sign contracts with some factories about selling student computers, which means that they sell a few discounted models specifically for students. This would also reduce the burden for students buying computers!” said Chu Gao.

“Very good! Then go and do it! I already sent the initial investment of five million into the account!” I said. “Although you can freely manipulate the funds, you have to do your accounts properly! I will check them any time!”

“Naturally! Hehe!” Chu Gao laughed.

It truly was as Chu Gao had said, the dirt road behind the university town became a business street after a quick renewal. The empty rooms on the ground floor of the university town were all turned into shops for public bids.

“Chu Gao, did you find out that if the bids of the school’s business street are totally public, or just a show for the internal people?” I asked. This is because, a lot of the shops within the school were used to give to the relatives of the staffs’ family.

“It should be a fair competition. I have asked about it. The school is auctioning the shops, the highest price gets it!” said Chu Gao.

“Oh!” I nodded. “Did you find out what is the approximate lowest price and final price?”

“The size of each shop is different, but I would estimate the lowest price for the auction to be at least twenty thousand per square meter!” said Chu Gao.

“What do you think about it?” I asked.

“Boss, I think that if we have the spare cash, we should buy a set. I essentially grew up here, judging from my experiences, the price of the land for the business street behind our school would at least double in less than two years. Of course, if we really don’t have the money, then we can rent a place from one of the purchasers!” said Chu Gao.

“Mhmm, the price of houses increasing is natural!” I said with a bit of praise. “How much money would we need if we wanted to get all of it?”

“All of it?!” Chu Gao exclaimed.

“Yes, all,” I nodded.

“Boss! The five million we have can only get one at most!” Chu Gao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Who said that we only have five million? The five million was funding for registering!” I said. “Don’t worry about the money! Just say how much do we need!”

“Ugh… There is about forty shops that is being auctioned by the school this time. Each one is between two hundred to six hundred square meters. That would approximately total up to twenty thousand square meters. If we calculate it using the lowest price, it would be two hundred million, but if some company enters into the competition, it would need at least three hundred million!” said Chu Gao.

“Alright! I will prepare five hundred million for the company! What you have to do know is clearly understand about the details of the auction, then do a detailed proposal!” I said.

“Five hundred million!” Chu Gao exclaimed in shock as he looked at me.

I smiled and nodded, “Chu Gao, five hundred million isn’t actually much. If we actually do it properly, we can earn tens or twenties of five hundred million!”

“Alright, boss, I will definitely work hard!” Chu Gao said excitedly.

May 1999 arrived in the blink of an eye.

During this period of time, I went to the bar nearby a few times once again and saw the owner of the bar, Wang-ge.

“Wang-ge, is the girl you find for me last time still working here?” I asked.

I don’t know why, but I still could not forget her after so long. This wasn’t a good sign. I felt like I was an extremely possessive person, I cannot allow anyone of the women I slept with to stay on the streets. Furthermore, this feeling became more and more intense!

Under this sort of circumstance, I can no longer go out for this sort of one-night stand. Otherwise, Zhao Yanyan would definitely murder me if I bring a few prostitues home!

“About this… Young Master Liu! Last time, she was a virgin, so she no longer came after that one time!” Wang-ge said perfunctorily. It was true that she was a virgin, however, he didn’t speak about the weird actions of the girl last time since he didn’t want to cause trouble for me.

“Virgin?!” I was shocked. I couldn’t be more drunk that night, my actions were pretty much crazed and violent. I didn’t think that it was actually the first time for the girl that was underneath me! When I thought back to her painful scream, I could only feel heartache!

How did I not realize this! If it really was like this, was what I did too much?

“Do you have her contact?” I took a deep breath and asked.

“She only left a phone number last time!” said Wang-ge.

“Give it to me,” I decided that I must find her and give her a reasonable explanation. Regardless of whether she accepts or not, I didn’t want her to come to this sort of messed up place again.

“Lil’ Three, find the contact for the bird that served Young Master Liu last time!” Wnag-ge ordered.

Hearing Wang-ge say “bird”, I felt rather uncomfortable in my heart. I frowned, but didn’t say anything in the end.

However, my expression did not escape Wang-ge’s eyes. People like him had gotten the fiery eyes of truth for observing things due to staying at the bottom of society.

“What is it, Young Master Liu, did you… get interested in that girl?” asked Wang-ge.

“Kind of,” I didn’t explain.

“Young Master Liu, just listen to me for a moment. The girl seems to have quite a complicated background. I think you should leave it so you don’t get into unnecessary trouble!” Wang-ge said with a weird expression.

I nodded and didn’t pay it any head. Complicated. Hehe. I interpreted Wang-ge’s words as the girl might have been forced out to sell herself since her family has some trouble, and that Wang-ge was afraid of me dumping money into it.

I called the number Wang-ge gave me, but the results showed that the number had been stopped. I sighed helplessly. It seems like she didn’t want anyone to disturb her.

On May 20th, the public auction for the shops on the business street started in the main conference room of Huaxia University’s main building.

Chu Gao and I participated in the auction in the names of students starting a business.

Zhao Yanyan and Yu Ting also came with us. Chen Weier was chosen to be a worker for the school, so I was also able to get a lot of first-hand information about the auction.

The auction seemed to be very good. The school was not going to consider any internal relationships and would refuse anyone that wanted to buy something using the minimum price through relationships, since the logistics group behind the school aimed to make money from this auction.

Since the business street was underneath the university town and had a stable customer base, it had a very good potential for continued development. Since there was no clear regulations for the types of shops, it means that once you buy the shop, you had complete control over it.
