Chapter 555: Five hundred and fifty to buy a new car_1

After he finished speaking, Gu Chen was momentarily at a loss for words.

Because he realized that what the man said seemed to make some sense.

As long as the cooperation could be successfully completed, wouldn’t there be no problem on Wu Dazhu’s end?

But soon, Gu Chen remembered the crux of the issue.

Would he become the sacrificial lamb?

Considering what Liu Dahai had previously described.

It seemed that Wei Tianfu loved to build someone up only to knock them back down.

Gu Chen actually didn’t need his cultivation; if it was cooperation, then all the better, he liked win-win situations.

But if there were any other twists and turns, then he couldn’t accept it.

After all, relying on his foresight far beyond twenty years, whatever he invested in, he could make money from it.

"I know what you’re worried about, if you really have a lot of concerns, then you can opt out now, no problem."

Wei Tianfu said to Gu Chen like this, without even intending to offer an explanation to Gu Chen.

Gu Chen’s gaze was fixed on Wei Tianfu, as if trying to discern what exactly Wei Tianfu was thinking.

"Actually, it’s a very simple principle. This investment is not a small matter, and I mentioned this to you a while ago," he said.

"However, we aren’t at the stage of signing a contract yet, so you have time to make a good decision before that."

He spoke to Gu Chen in such a logical and well-argued manner.

His emotions weren’t apparent either; it was as if he was talking about something completely normal.

"Xiao Gu, if you really want to go through with this, you shouldn’t have so many reservations.

I’m both pleased and disappointed that you came to me today.

I admire the courage you had to invest in the first internet café in the entire country.

But now, I think you should really ask yourself again."

As Wei Tianfu said this, he suddenly took out a small paper box from his pocket.

Gu Chen opened the paper box to take a look.

Inside was just a photo.

The photo showed him dining out the previous evening.

Interestingly, the photo was taken from above him.

Just then, the woman called Xiao Mei, who wasn’t pretty, was sitting right next to him.

Across from him sat Liu Dahai, who was giggling.

"Someone sent me this photo last night."

Gu Chen truly hadn’t expected Liu Dahai to be so scheming.

Not only did he invite him to dine, but he also sent a photo of him dining to Wei Tianfu?

What was his intention? Was it to sow discord?

"He told me that you are too inexperienced, and it was my mistake to trust you with such a big business deal.

He even said that you went to a hotel with the woman sitting next to you in the photo last night."

"But I guess, last night you certainly didn’t touch that woman, right?" Wei Tianfu said to Gu Chen, standing opposite him.

At this point, Gu Chen could only think of two words: "Awkward!"

Considering that Wei Tianfu knew everything, but hadn’t called to ask him about it?

"Given your unselfish act of delivering medicine to Qi Qi at the hospital, I can generally judge what kind of person you are."

"So I trust you, and I trust my choice," Wei Tianfu said to Gu Chen.

After hearing this, Gu Chen felt a twinge of guilt.

Compared to this, it seemed that his questioning of Wei Tianfu’s intentions today made him appear rather inadequate.

"I apologize, Liu Dahai’s colorful description made me unable to help but doubt my current situation."

Gu Chen said to him, and he was very candid about it.

"There’s no need to apologize to me, maybe indeed, I haven’t communicated with you enough before."

"I can give you an assurance now, even just for the life-saving grace you showed our Xiao Meng."

"Even if this collaboration ultimately fails, you can still exit smoothly,"

he gave Gu Chen an assurance at that moment.

An assurance that would allow Gu Chen to leave unscathed.

After listening, Gu Chen actually felt somewhat warmed inside.

"Is there anything else?" Wei Tianfu asked Gu Chen.

"No," Gu Chen shook his head.

"Then get to the important tasks quickly; next week is going to be busy, remember to be prepared."

He said this to Gu Chen as their collaboration was about to formally start.

Gu Chen left his office, still holding the photo from his dinner with Liu Dahai yesterday.

Liu Dahai... swearing on his own parents, that man’s heart really is ruthless enough.

Gu Chen walked out of the office building feeling completely relieved.

Once he had left, things were much easier for Gu Chen.

With that small assurance from Wei Tianfu, at least he wouldn’t have to worry about a stab in the back anymore.

However, in the future Gu Chen didn’t plan to visit Wei Tianfu’s place unless necessary.

There wasn’t anything wrong with it, it just wasted too much time.

It was the afternoon already and he had wasted nearly five hours in his office.

Taking advantage of the sunlight before it set, he hurried to the car dealership.

He had thought it would be late now, and they would probably have closed for the day.

But to his surprise, the dealership was bustling.

Many people were circling around inside, seemingly looking at something.

After getting out of the car, Gu Chen headed inside.

He saw many people jostling, trying to push their way forward.

Gu Chen had also wanted to take a look, but he didn’t manage to see anything.

Yet he wasn’t the type to be overly curious.

He decided to check out the sedans first.

But just as he was about to walk away,

he suddenly saw a group of employees approaching.

Among this group of shop assistants, Gu Chen also spotted a foreigner.

The domestic economy wasn’t so developed at present, and foreigners weren’t commonly seen on the streets.

So when he arrived, quite a few people were watching him.

"This is a terrible experience, there will not be such an opportunity for collaboration again!"

The foreigner angrily said to the man beside him, sweating profusely.

The man was repeatedly apologizing with an embarrassed look on his face.

"We are truly sorry, we didn’t expect Mr. Chen to suddenly not show up."

"How about this, you leave the car with us, we’ll try to see if there might be other customers who’ll buy it?"

While he was apologizing, he was still trying to redeem the situation.

But the foreigner was very irritable, his face filled with impatience.

He said in a Chinese that was hard to understand, "No! You don’t have that chance!"

"You will bear the transportation costs of this car back and forth!"

"You’re only just managing to make ends meet now; you can’t afford this kind of car!"

The crowd of onlookers slowly made way.

They watched the scene before them with curiosity.

At that moment the man even took out a packet of cigarettes from his pocket,

trying to diffuse the foreigner’s anger.

But the foreigner didn’t pay him any attention.

Once the surrounding people had dispersed a bit, Gu Chen finally saw what they had all been looking at.
