At this moment, a white sports car parked in the outdoor parking lot of the Gu Corporation.
"President Gu has arrived!"
Someone spoke, and numerous media reporters swarmed up, immediately blocking Gu Yunxi's way, even security couldn't clear the path.
"Hello, President Gu!" A reporter asked: "The Gu Corporation once had a good relationship with the Murong Group. Why is the Murong Group taking action against the Gu Corporation this time? Is it because your relationship with Murong Bai has broken down, leading to this?"
"No comment!" Gu Yunxi responded.
"President Gu, does the Gu Corporation still have room for recovery from such a risk?"
"President Gu, look, the major banks have already sent representatives over. Is the Gu Corporation preparing to declare bankruptcy?"
"And, you've come here today, is it to talk about everything you've experienced, as if to announce to the world that you will rise again?"
Many reporters, with one remark after another, left Gu Yunxi at a loss. Suddenly, a trace of Ancient Martial Arts aura pervaded, and she coldly said: "Please step aside, no further comments!"
The voice resonated in the ears of the media reporters, making them stunned for a moment. In an instant, Gu Yunxi's figure flashed and left her original spot. By the time the reporters reacted, she had already entered the company.
"President!" Luo Yan stepped forward.
"Luo Yan, call an emergency meeting!" Gu Yunxi said.
"Okay!" Luo Yan nodded, continuing: "Miss QianShan Xue is here, waiting for you in the reception room!"
"Got it!" With that, Gu Yunxi entered the elevator, heading straight to the finance department instead of the reception room.
"President!" The finance department manager stood up.
"How much cash is available now? Is it enough to pay the employees' salaries?"
"It's enough!"
"Good!" Gu Yunxi nodded: "In a while, come to the meeting room for the meeting!"
With that said, Gu Yunxi left the finance department. Seeing Gu Yunxi's desolate figure, the finance department manager sighed slightly. Is there really no hope for the Gu Corporation?
Then the finance department manager also left the office, heading to the meeting room.
Half an hour later, the meeting room was filled with senior executives from various departments. When Gu Yunxi entered the meeting room, the executives all stood up: "President!"
"Sit down!" Gu Yunxi motioned with her hand, her gaze incredibly calm, as if not despairing over the Gu Corporation's impending bankruptcy. She continued: "I believe the predicament of the Gu Corporation needs no further explanation from me!"
"We are willing to stand together with the Gu Corporation!" Their voices were unanimous, evidently, Gu Yunxi had treated them well in the past.
"No need!" Gu Yunxi waved her hand: "The situation the Gu Corporation faces today is my own doing, and I should bear it alone. Is the finance department manager here?"
"Present!" A middle-aged woman stood up.
Gu Yunxi looked at the finance department manager and said: "Later, pay everyone's wages, and don't deduct any allowances, understand?"
"President, this..."
"Do as I say!" With that, Gu Yunxi walked out of the meeting room, and as she reached the door, two lines of silent tears fell down, clearly showing that her endurance had limits as well.
She even questioned her heart; was she wrong to break away from her marriage to Murong Bai for happiness?
Even if given another chance, Gu Yunxi would still make the same choice without hesitation. Having made the decision, there is no regret.
Gu Yunxi took out a handkerchief, wiping away the tears at the corners of her eyes, then took a deep breath and restored her usual composure. Despite the bitterness in her heart, she would never reveal it in front of others.
...
Reception room.
Slam~
Gu Yunxi pushed open the door and saw QianShan Xue sitting there, holding a cup of coffee. Upon seeing Gu Yunxi, QianShan Xue put down the cup and said, "Yunxi!"
"Do you have something for me at this time?"
"I have ten billion here!" With that, QianShan Xue pulled a bank card from her LV bag, lightly smiling: "I already know about your situation. As good friends, with the Gu Corporation in such a state, I can't ignore it!"
"What are the conditions?" Yet Gu Yunxi unexpectedly asked.
"Yunxi, you're quite the jokester. We are good friends, of course, this ten billion counts as my investment, no conditions!" QianShan Xue smiled lightly, and Gu Yunxi asked again: "Really none?"
It seemed that Gu Yunxi understood her friend well. In fact, it wasn't about knowing QianShan Xue, but understanding Xiao Tianyu, as Xiao Tianyu had lived with her for a while and never did anything inappropriate.
"Well, there is a minor request!" QianShan Xue smiled lightly: "You see, yesterday Tianyu was too much, kept me exercising for two hours, saying it wasn't enough. It's obvious that Tianyu can't do without me!"
"Does this concern me?" There was a flash of displeasure in Gu Yunxi's eyes.
"Of course, it does!" QianShan Xue continued: "Currently, you are Xiao Tianyu's girlfriend, known to the world. I'm at most a home-wrecker. Even if Tianyu loves me, he's afraid of hurting your feelings, so he might not have mentioned me to you. See this photo, how considerate he is to me!"
With that, QianShan Xue took out a photo from her bag, a close picture of her with Xiao Tianyu, how she got this photo would be a question for QianShan Xue herself.
"I said, this has nothing to do with me!" Gu Yunxi responded icily: "If there's nothing else, please leave!"
"This ten billion..."
"Thanks for your kindness!" With that, Gu Yunxi moved to leave, QianShan Xue added: "Yunxi, I didn't mean it that way. Even if you don't want to let go, I, being your good friend, wouldn't just watch your company collapse. You should accept this ten billion!"
"No need!" Gu Yunxi shook her head: "Thank you!"
"Yunxi!" QianShan Xue stood up, attempting to press the bank card into Gu Yunxi's hand, as long as Gu Yunxi accepted it, she would owe a favor, making future dealings easier.
Yet, Gu Yunxi didn't buy it, and after taking the bank card, she placed it back on the table, saying: "I, Gu Yunxi, can live in poverty; there's no need to trade my boyfriend for it!"
With that, Gu Yunxi left.
"Yunxi, I didn't mean that!" QianShan Xue called out.
"..." Gu Yunxi didn't respond, left the reception room directly, making a cold glint pass through QianShan Xue's beautiful eyes. No, this matter must be resolved earlier, for once Yunxi returns to the academy, she will inevitably hear about the Demon Conqueror Assembly and learn about Xiao Tianyu's true identity.
