Chapter 651: Time To Pay It Off
Seeing Lu Chen silent, Kong Qingzhu explained, "I loved to join ARCS. But I don't want to cause any problems for your company." With a debt so large on her back, there was no way problems wouldn't occur.
"Pff!"
"What's wrong?" Kong Qingzhu expected Lu Chen to reject her and walk away, but he laughed instead! Confusion was plastered on her face. She dropped such a bomb on him, and he chuckled instead!
Lu Chen noticed his expression and explained, "Sorry about that. I'm not laughing at your predicament. I'm laughing because you're worrying too much."
"?"
"Just because it's 20 million, do you think ARCS can't shoulder it?" Lu Chen asked.
"It's 20 million!" Kong Qingzhu shouted. 20 million wasn't some change! It was a hefty amount!
"That's because you're thinking too low." Lu Chen calmly said. His words caused Kong Qingzhu to be more confused. He continued, "You don't have to worry about this. I can deal with it."
Who was he? He was the third son of the Lu family. What was more, he was the CEO of ARCS. Plus, he obtained a lot of cash from stocks.
There was no way Lu Chen couldn't shoulder a 20 million yuan debt.
"..." Kong Qingzhu had no words to say. But then she asked, "...Is it really alright? Why are you so concerned with a person like me?" She had the looks.
But if someone heard about the 20 million debt, no one would want to recruit Kong Qingzhu.
Lu Chen smiled, "That's because I believe a hardworking person is worth any price." Kong Qingzhu's work ethic was superb, from what he heard. For a person who worked hard and knew how to handle herself, 20 million yuan was worth it.
"..." Kong Qingzhu was silent, but she started to cry. Lu Chen stayed silent too, and let her cry. He knew it was difficult to come out with something like this.
Plus, she had to pay everything off by herself too. It was too much for someone her age.
"Sorry for crying so much." Kong Qingzhu apologized. She realized she had cried a little too much. Lu Chen shook his head,
"It's fine."
"Umm?"
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
Kong Qingzhu hesitated, "Can I still join ARCS?" She really wanted to join ARCS.
"Of course!" Lu Chen nodded. He was more than happy to accept her. Hearing that, Kong Qingzhu's smiled.
"I want to ask you if you have signed anything?" Lu Chen asked. He was happy Kong Qingzhu joined. But he needed to deal with them.
Kong Qingzhu shook her head, "No! I've only signed one thing. That was to shoulder the 20 million debt."
Lu Chen thought about it, "Have you read it?"
"Mmhmm. I read it, and the terms were reasonable." Surprisingly.
Lu Chen thought about it and decided, "Alright, let's go." He stood up.
"Hmm?"
"Let's go off and pay off your debt." It was time to pay it off.
