No one doesn't like money

Although it was July, there had been a slight rain tonight, making the air slightly humid and the wind a bit chilly. Shen Qingwu hugged her arms and said, "Green Source Group, Su Wanyue."

Chen Liuhe was taken aback for a moment, then he seemed to recall this person. A stunning face appeared in his mind, and he chuckled, shaking his head without saying a word. He had almost forgotten about this woman.

"Brother, when did you have a connection with the Green Source Group, ranked among the top 100 in the country? Is it the general manager of the Green Source Group, Su Weiye's only daughter, Su Wanyue, who's been asking about you?" Shen Qingwu asked curiously.

"Hehe, had a deal once, so there's some connection. But this woman is quite persistent. It's been so long, and she's still looking for me?" Chen Liuhe laughed. He vaguely remembered that after he rescued Su Weiye from the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group in the southwest border, Su Weiye and his daughter had requested to hire him as a bodyguard, but he had flatly refused.

He hadn't expected this father-daughter duo to still hold on to that idea.

"Brother, since there's a connection, don't you plan to see her?" Shen Qingwu asked.

"A troublesome and overly ambitious woman, what's the point of seeing her?" Chen Liuhe replied casually.

"Brother, Su Wanyue is not simple. At just twenty-four years old, she was appointed as the general manager of Green Source Group. While this is partly due to her father Su Weiye, you have to understand, for a company with a market value of over a hundred billion, there is not a single shareholder who is a pushover. Su Wanyue's appointment was approved unanimously by the board of directors. This information is very intriguing," Shen Qingwu explained.

Chen Liuhe took a sip of his drink without any ripples and Shen Qingwu continued, "The outside world calls Su Wanyue a remarkable woman in the business world. Since she became the general manager of Green Source, the company's profits have increased by ten percentage points within a year. It may seem unremarkable, but the higher-ups understand what that ten percent represents. She is truly outstanding!"

"Even more importantly, the Green Source Group has a red background," Shen Qingwu concluded.

Chen Liuhe teased Shen Qingwu, "Little sister, are you trying to get me to sell myself?"

"I know you will definitely go north to Beijing. I just hope you will have more and more chips," Shen Qingwu said.

Chen Liuhe asked, "And what do you think are the odds of me succeeding if I go to Beijing?"

This time, Shen Qingwu hesitated, her clear eyes flickering with uncertainty. After a long while, she looked up at Chen Liuhe. "I never doubt that you can make that ancient city stir, but killing and gambling are two different concepts. I'm afraid you won't come out unscathed."

Chen Liuhe laughed, then laughed out loud, "In the vast land of Huaxia, those who can keep me are just a handful!" This moment of dominance made Huang Bai's heart contract sharply. He didn't dare to look at Chen Liuhe, lowering his head deeply.

Shen Qingwu shook her head silently. "Not the same." She never doubted Chen Liuhe's power and believed deeply in the man who could make even the princelings fear him like a snake or scorpion. But the waters of the capital are too deep, deep enough to sink a mountain without a ripple.

"Hehe, who can say what will happen in a few years? Chen Liuhe said confidently. He never felt trapped, nor did he think he had reached a dead end. The road was still long, and this game had just begun!

No one knew what Chen Liuhe was really thinking or what kind of cards he was holding, not even Shen Qingwu, who was closest to him. Shen Qingwu fell silent, Chen Liuhe said nothing, and Huang Bai dared not speak. The three sat quietly in this eerie atmosphere, draped in the darkness of the night.

The next few days were uneventful. Chen Liuhe and Huang Bai went to work as usual, and Shen Qingwu led a boring life of studying and part-time work, without any grand or magnificent events.

One day, after dropping Shen Qingwu off at school, Chen Liuhe went to the entertainment club. After these few days of getting along, Chen Liuhe was like a fish in water at this club. From department managers and supervisors to waitresses and hostesses, there was no one Chen Liuhe wasn't familiar with.

He would tease the waitresses wearing silk cheongsams every day, flirt with the bold hostesses, and Chen Liuhe's life was quite colorful.

After having a brief flirtation with a waitress in the late morning, Chen Liuhe returned to the office alone.

He hadn't been sitting for long when someone came to the office who surprised Chen Liuhe slightly.

It was Zhang Yongfu, whom he had only met once!

"Heh, what wind blew the busy Mr. Zhang to my humble abode? Should I say that I am honored?" Chen Liuhe put on a show, circling out from behind his desk to greet him. Before tearing off the facade, everyone was just acting on the scene.

"Haha, Brother Chen is too polite." Zhang Yongfu laughed heartily, shook hands warmly with Chen Liuhe, then turned to the followers behind him and said, "What are you still following for? Go out and wait. With Brother Chen here, do you think I'm not safe? No need to be so formal!"

"Hehe, Mr. Zhang is so generous, with such a grand entrance. It makes me envious." Chen Liuhe complimented with a smile.

Zhang Yongfu waved his hand. "There's no way around it, Brother Chen. You know what it's like in our line of work. There are always more enemies than friends. One must be careful at all times, lest one's life be in danger."

"Mr. Zhang is planning ahead and thinking far ahead." Chen Liuhe nodded repeatedly.

The two sat down on the sand, and Zhang Yongfu said, "If Brother Chen truly enjoys the feeling of being flattered and followed, isn't it simple? Join me, and I guarantee you a life of luxury and indulgence every day."

Zhang laughed, "I don't have that ability. Living a life of luxury and indulgence is out of the question. I'd be content just to live as a commoner." Chen Liuhe chuckled.

"That's a pity, such a waste of talent. People like Brother Chen, if they don't make good use of their skills, it's a waste. Zhang Yongfu regretfully patted his thigh.

Chen Liuhe didn't pick up Zhang Yongfu's words but skillfully changed the subject, smiling and asking, "Zhang Boss, as such an important figure, you must have something to ask me when you come here, right?"

"Brother Chen, you're being too polite. Today, I'm just idle with nothing to do, passing by here, so I came up to see Brother Chen and, by the way, ask if my unruly son-in-law has caused any trouble lately. I hope he hasn't upset Brother Chen." Zhang Yongfu said grandly. Since Qin Ruohan transferred twenty percent of her shares to the Black Dragon Society, Zhou Yunkang has formally settled in the 'Golden Hall' club and has his own independent office.

In the club, Chen Liuhe hasn't had much contact with him. After all, it's not good to get too close on the surface. Zhou Yunkang is also erratic. However, Chen Liuhe also knows that this guy has reverted to his greedy and lustful nature. Just these few days, he has frequented the hostesses in the club.

"Hehe, Zhang Boss, you're worrying too much. Zhou Boss is a bit flirtatious, but other than that, everything's fine. As colleagues, we get along quite well." Chen Liuhe said superficially.

"That good-for-nothing guy, making Brother Chen laugh." Zhang Yongfu muttered lowly, and Chen Liuhe waved his hand, not saying much.

Zhang Yongfu looked around the office and suddenly said, "Brother Chen, are you satisfied with this office?"

Chen Liuhe sneered inwardly, knowing the main topic was coming, but he remained calm on the surface. "Very satisfied."

"Really satisfied? From what I know, Qin Ruohan's office is much more luxurious than yours. Does Brother Chen really have no interest in that position?" Zhang Yongfu smiled and asked.

Chen Liuhe smiled, "Contentment brings happiness."

"Brother Chen, do you know how much pure profit this club makes in a year?" Zhang Yongfu asked, and Chen Liuhe looked at him, not speaking, waiting for the continuation.

Answering himself, Zhang Yongfu held up a finger, "At least this much, ten million! Staring at Chen Liuhe, Zhang Yongfu said sternly, "And that's without any involvement in any gray income. As long as some things that can't be put on the table are included, the income will at least double."

"I want to ask you, how much does Qin Ruohan pay you? Ten thousand? Twenty thousand? Or thirty thousand?" After a pause, Zhang Yongfu sneered, "Or maybe even more?"

Chen Liuhe smiled, still not speaking, watching Zhang Yongfu freely. "Your mere annual salary of a few hundred thousand, compared to an annual profit of twenty million, is simply not worth mentioning. Brother Chen, are you really not moved at all?" Zhang Yongfu stared at Chen Liuhe.

Chen Liuhe laughed, very honest, "Of course, I'm moved. After all, no one dislikes money!"
