Chapter 939: 934 Shen City suburbs

In the past, he used to hear Old Zhang say how generous Gu Chen was.

However, he didn’t really understand the extent of Gu Chen’s generosity himself.

But after hearing what was said to me today, it completely overturned his previous understanding.

He simply couldn’t imagine that these words could actually be spoken by a person.

"President Gu, you really have a sense of humor. I don’t understand any of this," he said decisively at that moment, as he had a very clear understanding of his own abilities.

He knew exactly how much weight he could pull.

Running a small clothing store here, he felt was manageable.

But doing something like managing a large company, he knew he was incapable.

So, at this time, he didn’t accept it.

In his eyes, he simply didn’t have the qualifications.

Gu Chen, on the other hand, appeared very calm at this time.

"It’s okay, sister-in-law. Just give it a try and you’ll understand. It’s not difficult," Gu Chen continued to persuade patiently.

In Gu Chen’s view, it really wasn’t difficult.

He even thought it was quite simple.

But after Gu Chen had said this, the sister-in-law still shook her head.

He wasn’t foolish, how could he just listen to Gu Chen’s words?

He wasn’t clear on the level of difficulty.

In his heart, he was actually well aware of what was involved.

So, he decisively declined again.

"President Gu, I appreciate your intentions," the sister-in-law said.

"But there’s no need for such trouble. I don’t have such fortune, nor am I qualified to run any company."

At that moment, that’s exactly what he told Gu Chen.

She didn’t think she had the capability to run a company or anything of the sort.

She had a very clear self-awareness.

She knew that she was just an ordinary person.

"Sister-in-law, you should still try," Gu Chen interjected.

"You wouldn’t want to have to call Old Zhang for money when you need it in the future, would you?"

Gu Chen suddenly said this.

And when Gu Chen finished speaking, the sister-in-law’s expression changed instantly.

She didn’t react as she had before.

Instead, she began to hesitate at that moment.

Because she was very clear about what Gu Chen meant.

She knew that Gu Chen’s message was to tell her outright.

One must be economically independent; without it, life would be tough.

"I understand, I’ll go," the sister-in-law conceded after grasping Gu Chen’s good intentions, without any further hesitation.

She decided on the spot to go and take a look.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen felt somewhat gratified.

Gu Chen himself really didn’t harbor any complicated thoughts.

His reasoning was very straightforward.

Gu Chen was acutely aware of how much children would cost in the future.

Without money, it would indeed be hard to get by.

That’s why he urged her.

Fortunately, the sister-in-law wasn’t foolish and understood Gu Chen’s intentions, thus she agreed.

Soon, Gu Chen took the sister-in-law to the ordinary company and signed a managerial contract with her.

During his absence, she could be considered the director of the company.

All the employees looked at this sister-in-law, with a face full of wrinkles.

They were somewhat incredulous.

In their eyes, she didn’t possess the aura of a chairman at all.

They also didn’t understand why, at this moment, she could become the acting manager of the company.

Nevertheless, the employees had no right to ask such questions.

Gu Chen decided who would hold which positions, and that determined who could do what.

After having arranged these matters, Gu Chen finally felt at ease.

He felt that in many aspects, he had truly done his duty to the best of his ability.

For the remaining issues, even if they came back to him, there was nothing he could do.

During this time, it seemed everyone who had helped him had been fully repaid.

It was in the afternoon when he suddenly received a call.

The caller was none other than Old Yuan.

Since the last conversation with Old Yuan, there had been no further communication.

Gu Chen had not actually had a proper chat with Old Yuan face to face.

In fact, he was still unclear about Old Yuan’s attitude towards the whole situation.

However, he felt that Old Yuan was probably not happy.

After all, this matter was of great significance and was not to be taken lightly.

For Old Yuan, Xiong Qianyang might as well be his nemesis.

Gu Chen never asked Old Yuan to let go of his obsession.

He knew this was Old Yuan’s personal affair and that he had no right to meddle.

He could only hope that Old Yuan would consider his feelings.

For the time being, to not take issue with Xiong Qianyang over this matter.

Once the current troubles had passed, they could have an open and frank discussion.

And talk the matter through until everything was clear.

If the conflict really could not be resolved,

Then Gu Chen did not advise resorting to other means to settle the trouble.

But from any point of view, now was not the time to solve this problem.

"President Gu, I’ve found a place."

After connecting the call, Old Yuan was on the other end.

Hearing Old Yuan say this made Gu Chen curious.

He did not know what kind of place Old Yuan had found.

And soon, Old Yuan followed up, saying,

"It’s like a paradise on earth.

It’s in the suburbs of Shen City, there’s a highway and it takes just over forty minutes by car to get to the city center."

He told Gu Chen about it.

Gu Chen, after hearing this, did not have much of a reaction.

For Gu Chen, this was not particularly good news.

A journey of over forty minutes was indeed not close.

However, the suburbs had one advantage—that any situation there could be clearly seen.

At that moment, Gu Chen hesitated a bit internally.

He pondered whether he should go to this place.

He thought it best to consider it more carefully.

"Let’s look further, and talk about it if we find something better."

Gu Chen responded to Old Yuan on the other end of the phone.

He hadn’t just agreed to the matter outright.

He felt that the issue should not be taken too lightly and deserved serious consideration.

"Alright, I’ll go and make more arrangements," Old Yuan spoke from the other end.

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Gu Chen spoke up.

"Old Yuan, let’s deal with these issues first for the time being, and we can talk about other things after they are handled."

His words were very clear.

He did not want Old Yuan to keep dwelling on this issue.

Having understood the message, Old Yuan replied,

"Alright, I understand."

So he assured Gu Chen in response.

The respect due to Gu Chen, he had to give.

Especially since Gu Chen had helped him so many times.
