Chapter 289: 289 Meet!_1

After leaving the business premises, the two drove towards the Time Bar, and along the way, President Huang kept saying to the man named Qiang Zi that Tian Laosì seemed like a promising stock.

That being said, he might actually make tens of thousands from him.

He had no idea that the police had already set up an ambush here, just waiting for him.

Gu Chen sat at the wooden high table in the middle, ordered a glass of plain water, and appeared casual and calm.

He looked down at his phone and sent a message to the so-called President Huang, "President Huang, I’m sitting in the middle, what do you want to eat? I’m really hungry."

A subtle yet honest urging.

President Huang had already gotten out of the car by now. He was standing at the entrance, looking inside when his phone started to "beep." He took it out and saw it was Tian Laosì.

He looked towards the center of the restaurant and then he spotted Gu Chen.

The man wore a dress shirt with tracksuit bottoms below, and on his feet, canvas shoes.

The mismatch of garments exuded a rural simplicity that was endearing!

President Huang was quite pleased with his outfit.

Little did he know Gu Chen’s shoes were specifically traded with an old man selling fruit at the roadside after he came out of the police station. Not only did he change shoes, but he also gave the man ten yuan just to look more convincingly like a farmer.

President Huang pushed the door and walked in, waving at Gu Chen with a warm smile, "Little Tian, hello, hello."

Gu Chen gave a cold smile and thought to himself, "The bastard finally shows up!"

He glanced at the plainclothes officers to his sides with the corner of his eyes and saw they were composed, showing no sign of being ready to move.

He stood up then and bowed to President Huang.

"Hello, I am Tian Laosì." The sincerity on his face was just like the real Tian Laosì.

It must be said, he really captured the essence of Tian Laosì.

That genuinely honest and shy nature made him seem so trustworthy.

President Huang hurried over, helped him up with kindness, "Oh Tian, what is this? Since you’ve joined our company, we’re family now. There’s no need for such formalities between family."

It was then that Qiang Zai finally walked in.

The police officers’ attention now settled on the man dressed all in black.

That was their unknown fear; the real trouble was if the gang committed a crime together—if one came and another ran.

But they quickly looked down again.

They couldn’t act rashly, unfortunately, as they weren’t sure if he was part of the group.

The police not making a move meant that Gu Chen had to continue acting. He grinned broadly, face bright with a simple smile, and handed President Huang the plastic bag beside him.

"This, this is wild Lingzhi from the mountains of my hometown. Take it and nourish yourself well."

He had dug up this Lingzhi in the toilet himself; this was his own merchandise for sale!

As Gu Chen handed it over, he couldn’t help but sigh internally, "Earn if you live, eat if you don’t."

The Lingzhi mushroom was really big, having grown to the size of a face in just a few days. President Huang had never seen such a large Lingzhi before.

Brightness shone in the eyes behind his gold-rimmed glasses.

"This is so precious! I’m so sorry, seeing how hard you’ve worked, I will definitely report this and make an exception to promote you one level!"

He nodded, "Then I thank you."

After Huacai finished speaking, she saw President Huang rubbing his hands together, then lifting the Lingzhi out of the plastic bag with both hands, holding it like a treasure, visibly charmed by it.

While looking at it, he asked Gu Chen, "Now, Little Tian, as you know, according to regulations, getting a promotion now definitely requires bringing in over twenty thousand in benefits for the company. You’ve only brought in eight thousand, strive a little and once it reaches ten thousand, I’ll definitely promote you."

After speaking, he changed the subject, "I think your Lingzhi is excellent, do you have any more back there?"

This Lingzhi, being so large, weighing a good three pounds—at five hundred per pound, that itself added up to fifteen hundred yuan!

He still wanted to ask Gu Chen for more.

He’s really gotten used to taking advantage of others.

Gu Chen looked at his shameless face and, suppressing his disgust, said, "I’ll have it, I’ll have it, tomorrow, tomorrow I’ll definitely bring it to you."

Fucking knows his goods!

"Alright, alright, oh, the noodles here are really good, aren’t you hungry? Since it’s not often you come, let me treat you to noodles!"

After speaking, President Huang called out with great vigor, "Waiter!"

That momentum, anyone who didn’t know better would think a fight was about to break out.

Even Qiang Zi couldn’t help but glance over at them.

Hearing this, the waiter hurried over, smiling at President Huang, "Sir, what would you like to order?"

"Two bowls of pork intestine noodles!" he declared with an air of extravagance.

Gu Chen was speechless. Oh great, so his idea of treating someone to a meal was just a bowl of noodles, and not even a side dish?

He didn’t plan on eating, but he wanted to eat himself.

Hearing this, the waiter nodded, "Alright, would you like some drinks as well?"

Upon hearing the mention of drinks, President Huang quickly shook his head, "No need, just a glass of water, plain water, it’s healthy."

"Okay." The waiter replied and walked into the kitchen.

President Huang watched the waiter enter the kitchen, then nudged Gu Chen with his shoulder, whispering mysteriously, "That girl’s also from the countryside, how about it, she’s pretty, isn’t she?"

To tell the truth, Gu Chen hadn’t even bothered to look up.

But he had taken a glance when he first came in, a fresh and simple working girl.

He looked at President Huang, "That girl looks to be only about eighteen or nineteen years old."

"Yeah, these kinds of girls are easy to get along with, just give them a little money, buy them a couple of lipsticks, and they’ll be totally devoted to you."

Initially, because he didn’t have much money, he hadn’t dared to make a move, but today Gu Chen had wired him a solid eight thousand, so now he was flush with cash.

Not only does alcohol bolster the cowardly, but money even more so.

He didn’t believe that, with money in hand, he couldn’t conquer this waitress.

As he spoke, he stroked the glasses on his face, which under the yellow light, the slick sheen was particularly noticeable.

Comparable to the oil in his hair.

Gu Chen felt somewhat nauseous.

He didn’t speak any further.

After ten minutes, the noodles finally arrived, and the waiter smiled apologetically at the two of them, "Here are your noodles, please take your time eating."

After speaking, she was about to leave.

Seeing this, President Huang grabbed her hand, pulled out a hundred yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into her hand.

His thick lips trembling with laughter, "A tip, a tip."

The girl was startled and quickly pushed him away, "Sir, we don’t accept tips here."

President Huang, of course, knew that, but it was just an excuse to touch her.

He immediately moved closer to the girl, wrapped his hand around her slender waist, and groped her fiercely, while his other hand reached into his pocket, "Come on, take it, don’t be shy."

"It’s really not allowed, we have rules." The girl clearly did not dare to express her anger but was so aggrieved she almost started to cry.

Finally, Gu Chen couldn’t stand it any longer, stood up, and pushed President Huang away, "Are you fucking sick, can’t you understand what people are saying?"

The identity of a pyramid scheme leader was disgusting enough, and now he was attempting to molest a young girl!

Truly revolting.
