C151 – Happiness
Wang Guohui asking for directions? That was a first!
“The Green Cloud Club?”
Wang Guohui paused, then gave the table a solid thump: “Tell him I’m in. But he doesn’t need to foot the bill—I’m hosting tonight!”
The secretary was taken aback.
Wang Guohui was usually swamped with work, not known for being particularly demanding in other areas.
He had simply preferred his secretaries to be younger and more attractive, though their work capability always came first.
Truth be told, they had been somewhat apprehensive when they first started working for him. However, years passed, and they found that he never once harassed them.
The chairman of Cloudsea Navigation Company had extended multiple invitations to Wang Guohui, who seldom accepted.
Filled with curiosity, she quickly returned the call.
At the club, two men past fifty were enjoying the hot springs.
CEO Sun gave Wang Guohui a sly smile: “Old Wang, you used to tell me to stay away from here. What’s gotten into you today, suddenly inviting me and offering to pay?”
“That’s my business!”
Wang Guohui replied with a secretive grin.
“Come on, drop the act. What’s the deal?”
“You’re always buried in work, and it’s taken a toll on you. It’s about time you took a break. Your company is so well-established that you hardly need to lift a finger anymore; your team can handle everything, can’t they?”
“I’ll offer two million.”
“Do I look like I need your two million?”
“Five million!”
“Get lost!”
“Ten million!”
“Old Sun, you’re chasing fantasies.”
Yet, Wang Guohui had no intention of revealing the truth.
Indeed, his visit was to gauge the potency of Su Ming’s fennel. He hadn’t expected much, but last night’s outcome had taken him by surprise.
The efficacy of the fennel was astonishingly potent.
It had exceeded all his expectations.
He vividly recalled not even being this formidable at eighteen.
If word got out, Mr. Su would surely hold him accountable.
What’s more, Mr. Su had mentioned having an ample supply of both the potion and the item. This implied that Mr. Su had even more valuable treasures at his disposal. Should Mr. Su feel generous enough to share even a fraction with Wang Guohui, the benefits would be immense.
But if Wang Guohui managed to offend Mr. Su over this trifle, the regret would be unbearable.
Lost in his elated thoughts, Wang Guohui was jolted back to reality when Old Sun suddenly dropped to his knees.
The gesture took Wang Guohui completely by surprise!
