Lin Yiqian did not intentionally change her tone of voice or use strong gestures. However, she did come across as naturally charismatic and trustworthy.
All of a sudden, the employees were able to feel a sense of hope and motivation when just a moment ago everything seemed to be in pieces.
Each of them stood up straight and appeared more energized than before.

“Chief Song is indeed powerful.”
“Wine improves with age, after all.”
As they read the news about the bet between Lin Yiqian and Song Changlin, Li Nanmu and Qi Wuyue started gloating in front of Gu Nianshen in his office early in the morning.
The two sat on the sofa with their phones in hand as they scrolled through the comment section. Nearly everyone looked down upon Lin Yiqian.
Although the two of them had been in the office for nearly half the day, Gu Nianshen did not respond to them at all.
“Nianshen, what’s the matter with you?” Li Nanmu raised his head and looked at Gu Nianshen with a confused expression.
Meanwhile, Gu Nianshen sat comfortably in his chair behind the desk. He seemed to be deep in thought. When he finally realized Li Nanmu was calling out to him, his lips started moving. “I’ve thought about it.”
“What?”
Li Nanmu and Qi Wuyue both seemed curious.
Gu Nianshen straightened his back before placing his elbow on the armrest and resting his chin on his palm.
He then turned to look at Li Nanmu and Qi Wuyue. “Each of you will make a purchase of up to one million.”
“One million of what?” Li Nanmu blinked confusedly.
“Lin Quan’s cosmetic products,” Gu Nianshen replied.
Hearing this, the two men leaped from their seats. “Gu Nianshen, are you toying with us?”
“Are you monkeys?” Gu Nianshen frowned.
In other words, Gu Nianshen was asking why he would toy with them if they were not monkeys.
Gu Nianshen rolled his eyes at the two.
Li Nanmu and Qi Wuyue nearly lost their temper.
“You…”
Li Nanmu pointed a finger at Gu Nianshen as he approached him. “Tell me the truth. Have you fallen in love with Lin Yiqian?”
After reaching Gu Nianshen’s desk, he placed both hands on the desk and leaned in close to Gu Nianshen. “If you admit it, we won’t even mind buying five million worth of those products.”
Before Li Nanmu finished his sentence, Gu Nianshen immediately replied, “Yes.”
Gu Nianshen had spoken without a tinge of hesitation.
“Gu Nianshen, you…” Li Nanmu stared at Gu Nianshen with his eyes wide open.
Impossible. Unbelievable.
Gu Nianshen ignored Li Nanmu as he continued to speak, “I will get the five million worth of goods delivered to your houses. Delivery fees will be exempted.”
Li Nanmu was speechless.
Right then, Qi Wuyue walked over as he looked at Gu Nianshen with a serious expression. “Gu Nianshen, are you being serious?”
Likewise, Gu Nianshen ignored him. “Remember, this is your own charitable decision. You are buying these to donate to the military folks who protect our country at the borders.”
After speaking, Gu Nianshen gave them a look of warning.
Then, he shifted his chin over to his left palm before retrieving his phone with his right hand to place the orders for Li Nanmu and Qi Wuyue.
Li Nanmu gawked for a moment before turning to face Qi Wuyue. “Have you seen someone this shameless?”
“No, I have not.” Qi Wuyue shook his head.
“He… Could he really have fallen in love with Lin Yiqian?”
The two men simultaneously looked at Gu Nianshen in shock.
Gu Nianshen did not care about their response. After pressing several buttons, he put his phone down and looked up at the two. “I have already placed the orders for you. I’m even giving you an 80% discount. Each of you will pay four and a half million bucks.”
Qi Wuyue frowned. “Gu Nianshen, did your physical education teacher teach you Mathematics?”
