"Uncomfortable?" Wang Yu was taken aback, seeing that Wu Lingling's complexion didn't seem good, as if she had just had an argument.
He didn't ask further, directly took her hand, and they turned to leave.
As for the ten million yuan in cash placed before him, it looked tempting, but it was no longer important to Wang Yu.
What is destined for me, I will have; what is not, I will let go. It's not like I can't earn this amount!
Of course, anyone who saw his actions would surely spit blood and exclaim what a spendthrift, simply mad!
Not taking the vast sums of money placed before him, something many people strive for their entire lives without ever seeing.
But for Wang Yu, compared to this money, leaving with Wu Lingling now seemed much more important.
If he really wanted money, he would have already accepted the fifty million yuan given by Wu Yuanhang. Why would he be greedy for this ten million?
Wu Yongping watched Wang Yu and Wu Lingling walk away, saying nothing.
"Brother, why didn't you stop them?" Wu Manman sidled up, also looking angry. "Big sister is truly something, arguing and falling out with me just because I said a few words about this boy. I'm her own sister!"
To Wu Manman's words, Wu Yongping shook his head slightly.
"It's no use. Lingling is different from you; she's had her own ideas and goals since she was young. Once she decides something, not even nine oxen can pull her back. You know this."
"Since you know that, then why did you go along with her like that before?" Wu Manman asked indignantly. "That guy named Wang Yu, at first glance, is a toad wanting to eat swan meat, with no ability but extremely arrogant, only good at some petty tricks!"
Speaking of Wang Yu, Wu Manman's face was full of disdain. m..oΓg
"Many times, don't define others easily. Father always taught us not to underestimate anyone, especially those from humble beginnings." Wu Yongping's expression was solemn, and then he spoke slowly.
"Before, I wanted to give Lingling some space to make these boys retreat. But apparently, he was unwilling and even managed to achieve something through sheer luck.
In that case, I can only resort to force!"
"Force?" Wu Manman's eyes lit up, suddenly interested. "Brother, are you going to make a move?"
"Yes, we'll deal with the Mu family first. Then I'll slowly free up my hands to deal with him. Otherwise, if provinces all over are offering good terms for investment, why do you think I specifically chose to establish a production base in Guanjiang Province?" Wu Yongping said lightly, his eyes deep.
"That's great! With brother making a move, eliminating this boy will be as easy as crushing an ant!" Wu Manman said happily beside him.
"I can't act directly, otherwise Lingling will hate me. But using a third party is a good option," Wu Yongping smiled mysteriously. "Someone will help us."
"Someone?"
"You don't need to worry about that. You'll know when the time comes. Let's go, we'll go to the second floor to attend the banquet."
"Alright!"
Wu Manman nodded happily and then turned to leave, leaving Wu Yongping standing alone in the lobby.
He beckoned, and a sharp-looking young man walked over.
"What are your orders, Mr. Wu?" the young man asked respectfully.
"Arrange for someone to transfer this ten million to the corporate account of the Jiangyang County Automobile Factory. You know the account." Wu Yongping nodded towards the ten million cash, surrounded by heavily armed security personnel.
"Ah? Didn't Wang Yu not take it and just leave?" the young man asked, confused.
"Since he didn't actively ask for it, then we simply don't have to give it. Anyway, even if we deny it, I doubt this poor kid can stir up any trouble."
"Hmph, he can refuse it, but since I promised to give it, I will definitely give it," Wu Yongping snorted. "After all, he did help us solve the Mu family's problem and saved us billions in losses. Since I said it before, this reward is rightfully his.
Also, contact Zhao Guozhu and tell him that I agree to that matter."
"Understood, Mr. Wu."
...
"You seem unhappy?"
Outside the entrance of the Hailan Hotel, Wang Yu looked at Wu Lingling, who had a gloomy expression.
"Yes, I had a fight with my sister," Wu Lingling said slowly, her face looking very unhappy.
"In her opinion, I should honestly enjoy the resources and convenience provided by the family, be a good young lady, and then marry someone of equal standing to become a wealthy wife.
Instead of being like this now, showing my face with you outside, messing around everywhere.
However, that kind of canary-in-a-cage life is not my pursuit.
What I want is to become the wealthy family myself!"
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean by 'someone like you'?" Wang Yu rolled his eyes impatiently, "As if I'm so terrible."
"Aren't you? A fool whose head is full of engine oil and gears!" Wu Lingling huffed.
"Am I as bad as you say? Oh, right, I suddenly remembered something?" Wang Yu said earnestly.
"What?"
"Didn't you say before that Qinglu Group's loss this time was estimated to be over a hundred million? Why is it now 1.5 billion? And wasn't the reward originally in US dollars? Why is it now in our national currency?"
"Nonsense, my brother manages these matters. I can only say I know the general idea. It's normal for the information to be a bit inaccurate! Besides, he will inherit the family's future industries and wealth, so how could I know so many crucial details so clearly!"
Hearing Wu Lingling say this, Wang Yu smiled slightly. "Yes, he will inherit it in the future, so why are you so bothered? Do what you want to do."
"Heh, aren't you afraid of bringing trouble because of me? I'm telling you, if my brother says he'll suppress you, he will."
Wu Lingling felt that what Wang Yu said made sense, and she smiled brightly.
"Then bring it on. Anyway, with so many enemies, he's just one more. I won't give up on an important partner like you! As long as you don't leave on your own, I won't give up on you. Isn't it just a goal of a hundred million? Don't worry, I'll help you achieve earning that much quickly."
"Pah! You boastful skinflint! If you help me earn a hundred million, you'll probably earn even more!"
After Wang Yu's comfort, Wu Lingling's mood had clearly improved a lot, and she began to joke with him.
As they talked, they headed back to the government guesthouse.
Passing a shop along the way, on the street-facing display windows, advertisements were playing on several display televisions.
Wang Yu and Wu Lingling were just passing by and didn't pay attention, but their eyes casually swept across one of the screens, and Wang Yu froze completely.
On the television screen, a young man was being interviewed with great animation. That pretentious demeanor, wasn't that exactly Li Mo?!
For some reason, seeing him made Wang Yu's head ache.
"To put it bluntly, my current success is absolutely due to my lifelong friend, Wang Yu!" Li Mo's voice was impassioned and full of a chuunibyo flair.
