Gudu!
The remaining soup in the hot pot bubbled, and the lingering heat passed between the two of them, colliding with the wall decorated in the style of the period, and then turned into nothingness.
Although it was obviously a busy meal, the hotpot restaurant became quieter at some point. Under Zhou Wang's pressure, Jiang Mo, who finally had something to eat, went to the lobby outside, leaving the space in the private room for the two of them. people.
Conversations must be in person, so the senior sister's sensible avoidance also relieved Zhou Wang from the burden on his conscience.
...
[Secret and Great: Prologue - Please follow the keywords prompted by the system and have a separate conversation with the target person Wang Ruxi. Depending on the completion of the conversation and the performance of the host, different levels of rewards will be given]
[Are you Have you ever thought that you could live another life? ]
[Keywords: trauma, agreement]
...
According to Zhou Wang's own understanding, this is probably similar to a "role-playing" game, and he needs to play "himself" well.
In fact, Zhou Wang still doesn't understand whether that period of his life is his sealed memory, or the time and space distorted by the system, and whether people like Wang Ruxi and Caroline originally existed...
But it doesn't seem to be the case. It's important.
Wang Ruxi sitting in front of him at this moment is a living person, visible and tangible, and obviously has his own thoughts and feelings.
His life has completely changed, and the only thing he needs to do is to seize this huge wealth...
Before Wang Ruxi arrived, Zhou Wang had thought for a long time based on the "keywords" given by the system, and initially had his own plan.
The Fenjiu wine he had just brought was not drunk yet. Zhou Wang removed the seal at this time, picked up the wine glass and poured a glass for each of them.
A trace of surprise flashed in Wang Ruxi's eyes, but she still leaned forward and took the glass.
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Wang noticed his brief expression of strangeness and asked with a smile.
"Mr. Zhou, you used to be a person who never drank liquor. You said...all alcohol that can interfere with the brain's thinking is a cancer. I am deeply impressed."
Wang Ruxi explained.
Zhou Wang just smiled faintly when he heard this, "Maybe it's because I later discovered that you should let your brain rest occasionally."
Wang Ruxi nodded clearly and said meaningfully: "That's right. You were... probably because of tension. "It's too tight."
"How's it going over there?"
Zhou Wang asked naturally after clinking glasses with Wang Ruxi.
"The surveillance was dealt with, and we also obtained a letter of understanding from the girl named Sisi and Wang Feiyu, and each gave them two thousand yuan in financial compensation."
When it came to business, Wang Ruxi said seriously, "In addition, according to what I just received, According to the news, Meisong Trading Company, of which Cao Meijuan is the legal person, has been investigated for economic crimes. Cao Meijuan herself has also been summoned, and the group company belonging to the Wang family has had its bank account frozen due to suspected illegal use of loans. The relevant departments who reported the report also followed up and are investigating their involvement in money laundering and other crimes..."
Wang Ruxi said it as if they were two unrelated things, but Zhou Wang felt a little dazed after listening to it.
The first thing is to abide by the law and discipline. Wang Ruxi could not have handled it more satisfactorily and would not have left any hidden dangers.
As for the things Wang Ruxi "heard" later, they were a bit beyond Zhou Wang's expectations.
What he originally thought was, at most, to teach several families a profound lesson, which might break their bones, but who knows... These two families were so unclean in the first place, so no one could blame them.
It's just that this action from the mysterious power was too fast...
Zhou Wang took a deep look at Wang Ruxi, and quickly calmed down the strangeness in his eyes. He just nodded lightly, and then he remembered something, "You seem to Didn't you mention Liao Jianli?"
Upon hearing Zhou Wang's question, Wang Ruxi hesitated for a moment, then took out Zhou Wang's rose gold business card from his pocket and put it on the table.
Zhou Wang picked up the cold business card, rubbed it slightly, then raised his eyebrows and looked at Wang Ruxi.
He realized that Wang Ruxi got it back from Liao Jianli, but he didn't understand what he meant by taking out this business card at this time.
"You gave him your business card, do you want to give him a chance?"
Wang Ruxi asked softly, "After all, this business card should symbolize your friendship..."
Wang Ruxi said implicitly, but Zhou Wang understood it instantly.
He is the actual head of Yunshang Trust and the only representative of Earth's "Online". The business card he personally sent should have more meaning than himself.
Not everyone is qualified to get one of his business cards. Since he got it, it shows Zhou Wang's recognition to a certain extent...
In other words, this involves a "qualification" issue.
Zhou Wang had never thought of this before. For a moment, Zhou Wang couldn't help but look at Wang Ruxi with a strange look.
...How can you still show off like this?
Lao Wang, you are also a master in this way!
But soon, Zhou Wang's eyes became cold again, and he said calmly: "So... you are teaching me how to do things?"
Wang Ruxi was so shocked that he immediately stood up and bowed, "Sorry, Mr. Zhou, it's me. Overstepped!"
After Wang Ruxi kept bowing his head for several seconds, Zhou Wang waved his hand, "Forget it, sit down."
Wang Ruxi breathed a sigh of relief, and after sitting down again, Zhou Wang poured him another glass of wine. He smiled lightly and said, "I'm sorry, I felt a little uncomfortable just now and couldn't control my emotions..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Ruxi immediately raised her head with concern, "Looking at your condition today, I thought you were recovering well, and your head is still Does it hurt?"
"It's much better now."
After hearing what he wanted to know calmly, Zhou Wang replied, "Continue to talk about what you just said, you said give Liao Jianli a chance, specifically. What does it mean? "
" Qiangsheng Group is doing well now, and Liao Jianli has contributed a lot. Do you think it would be a way to pay him off and see the consequences...
Wang Ruxi suggested cautiously .
"How many shares did he originally have?"
Zhou Wang asked after being stunned.
"Although he went through a round of financing, with our help, Liao Jianli successfully repurchased all the shares into his own hands. So now, he is the wholly-owned controlling shareholder of Qiangsheng Group..."
Zhou Wang's expression suddenly turned strange when he heard this. got up.
In other words, if someone originally owns 100% of the equity, what you call "giving him a chance" means leaving him 1% of the equity. Is this also called "giving a chance"?
Not only that, Liao Jianli, whose assets have shrunk a hundred times in an instant, still has to continue to work for you... Oh, no, you work for me?
And in order to keep this hard-earned "sliver of hope", Liao Jianli may work even harder than before, and may even do whatever it takes to express his gratitude...
Looking at Wang Ruxi, who didn't seem to think there was anything wrong, Zhou Hope can't help but reflect.
Could it be that I am too kind?
Perhaps this is the normal state of cruel business competition?
As the head of Yunshang Trust in China, Wang Ruxi may have become accustomed to this kind of thing... "Just do as you say."
Zhou Wang played with the business card in his hand, and then nodded calmly.
...
More than half an hour later, Zhou Wang quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the system's notification that the [Hidden Round] had been completed.
Objectively speaking, it seemed that Zhou Wang was still in control of the situation, but the conversation was actually not an easy one.
Because Zhou Wang's mind is always in a state of tension to avoid accidentally saying something that confuses Wang Ruxi...
He is not worried about cheating or anything, after all, from Wang Ruxi's perspective, it is impossible to doubt Is there another Zhou Wang? He is just worried that it will affect the reward.
Zhou Wang did not choose to completely play "Wang Ruxi's impression of himself". This method was thankless, because Zhou Wang actually did not understand his previous self well enough, and it was easy to expose various flaws.
Based on the key word "trauma", Zhou Wang planned to overturn Wang Ruxi's inherent impression of himself from the beginning and let him slowly accept himself as he is now.
It was a bit risky, but judging from Wang Ruxi's reaction later, it was considered a success...
The only thing that depressed Zhou Wang was that he originally wanted to find out a little about the woman named Caroline from Wang Ruxi's mouth, but But he was warned by the system.
Obviously, the system didn't think it was a good thing for him to rashly ask around at this time.
This should involve the content of the keyword "agreement", or in other words, Zhou Wang at this time is indeed not qualified to control "Cloud Trust" and can only grow step by step...
The second half of the conversation is more about After chatting about astronomy, geography, customs, and occasional business cases, I have to say that Zhou Wang benefited a lot from Lao Wang's high vision and profound knowledge.
Until the system prompt sounded, Zhou Wang also spoke at the right time: "Old Wang, you should have a lot of things to do. That's it for today."
Wang Ruxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Given his status, he is naturally extremely busy. In fact, in just such a short period of time, his phone, which was on silent mode, already had a backlog of several things that needed his instructions... This was after the secretarial team had already prepared them in advance. Filtered results.
"Let's go together."
Zhou Wang stood up and glanced at his phone. Jiang Qingkui, who had just landed in Beidu in the afternoon, was already waiting outside with Miao Ying.
...
When he came out of the hot pot restaurant and saw the empty lobby, Zhou Wang realized that Wang Ruxi had directly cleared the place.
Not only that, except for the black bodyguard Zhou Wang had seen before, from the entrance of the hot pot restaurant, to the first floor of the shopping mall, to the entrance and exit, you can see different appearances in black suits at regular intervals. man.
Wearing sunglasses and headsets on their ears, they were on standby in different locations, making the scene look like an action movie.
"Because of what happened tonight, we have to be on guard against anyone jumping over the wall..."
Faced with Zhou Wang's sideways glance, Wang Ruxi just explained.
But what Zhou Wang was actually concerned about was not why Wang Ruxi mobilized so many people...
Until he arrived at the parking lot, when he saw three Mercedes-Benz S-Classes driving in front of him, there were another dozen or so men in black who were wary While walking around, a nimble driver quickly ran forward to help Wang Ruxi open the car door. Looking at the broken Audi waiting for him not far away, and Jiang Qingkui standing alone next to him, Zhou Wang couldn't bear it anymore. Can't stand it anymore.
"That...Old Wang."
"Mr. Zhou?"
Wang Ruxi raised her head in confusion.
"Those bodyguards I used to have..."
Recalling the scenes of people shouting and swarming that he saw in [No. 006], Zhou Wang asked tentatively.
Wang Ruxi was startled at first, then thought she understood what Zhou Wang meant, and quickly replied: "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, their pensions have been doubled to their designated relatives' accounts according to your wishes, and there will be dedicated personnel to follow up." Will pay attention to their family situation..."
Zhou Wang:?
What the hell is a pension...
Does it mean that all my bodyguards are dead?
But thinking of the last scene he saw in [Memory Gear], Zhou Wang couldn't help but be silent, okay, anyway, judging from the situation at the time, being my bodyguard was indeed quite dangerous.
But what Zhou Wang wants to ask is obviously not this. Why is this Lao Wang so weak at the critical moment?
I don't think I'm jealous...
I'm obviously the boss, so why do you have more than ten times more subordinates than me?
Seeing that Wang Ruxi didn't get what he meant, Zhou Wang could only cough and said, "I want to say that your bodyguards look very professional. The treatment you give them should be very good, right?"
Wang Ruxi looked a little confused. , said in confusion:
"Mr. Zhou, they come from the security company you founded. Of course, they are professional. As for their treatment...it seems that you provided them with it. I don't know."
"Well . ?"
Now it was Zhou Wang's turn to be confused.
I actually founded a security company?
How the hell don't I know...
However, when Zhou Wang wanted to get to know Wang Ruxi further, he received another warning from the system... Well, this was obviously beyond his current reach.
After sending Wang Ruxi... and his professional security team away in depression, Zhou Wang checked the [Advanced Resume] that he had used long ago.
This prop card cost him 10,000 reputation points to redeem. The progress bar still shows "Interactive Reality". The powerful bodyguard who belongs to him still doesn't know where it is...
I have never used this level before [Resume] Zhou Wang was not sure whether such a long interaction time was normal, but he could only wait patiently.
Holding the senior's hand, Zhou Wang came to the Audi A6L driven by Miao Ying.
The car was picked up by Ding Yi's driver. Although it was not a top-end luxury car, in Beidu, it would obviously be more convenient to use this Audi with many passes on the window.
In the night wind, Jiang Qingkui, wearing a long windbreaker, has been waiting here for a long time with her arms folded.
Seeing Zhou Wang and Jiang Mo walking over, Jiang Qingkui glanced at Jiang Mo with a slightly complicated look, and nodded to her:
"Junior sister Jiang Mo, we meet again..."
Jiang Qingkui and Jiang Mo were both at Cai University's Wang Hongying. I have worked under the professor, so there is nothing wrong with calling her "junior sister".
Originally, Jiang Qingkui, whose orientation was abnormal, was also interested in Jiang Mo.
But now, she saw that the other party was no longer troubled...
and the certain man who caused this subtle change was standing next to Jiang Mo, looking at the looming things under the hem of her windbreaker with very annoying eyes. The long legs wrapped in flesh-colored stockings...
"Sister Jiang, hello."
After Jiang Mo also greeted her politely, Jiang Qingkui took a deep breath, put away those messy thoughts, and then looked towards Looking around, his face became a little solemn.
"Boss, there's something... I want to report to you alone."
