Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more!-Chapter 369 - 220: Yuyan Sends Wu Wei... Encounter with a Former Boss_3

However, in doing so, his intentions become too obvious.

This money would likely only earn Feng Yunuo's gratitude, but not her favor.

Then he would become a spending fool who gains nothing, much like his previous expenses on Liu Lili.

So, this method definitely won't work.

Wu Wei recalled the suggestion Feng Yunuo made today—to let him acquire Gao Ma Automobile's debt at half price.

Debt?

Thinking of these two words, an idea suddenly surged in Wu Wei's mind, and the corners of his mouth curved into a playful yet confident smile...

The next morning, Wu Wei got up early.

With pent-up frustration and boundless energy, he put on sportswear and went straight to the hotel's gym.

Faced with various equipment, he seemed to find an outlet, engaging in a high-intensity strength training session.

It was only when he was exhausted that he showered and left.

After changing clothes back in his room, he was about to head to the restaurant for a meal when his phone rang; it was Huang Xin calling.

Wu Wei was somewhat surprised. They usually contacted each other via WeChat, so this sudden call likely meant something was up.

Upon answering, Huang Xin's voice on the other side was obviously depressed and dejected: "Wu Wei... I just got laid off."

Wu Wei frowned: "What's going on? Why were you suddenly laid off?"

Huang Xin sighed: "I don't know either. I was just working this morning when HR suddenly called me into the office and informed me I was optimized out. They said it was due to last year's poor company performance and structural adjustments... but it doesn't sound right to me."

Wu Wei thought for a moment and already had the answer in mind.

He said solemnly: "Come to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel. We'll talk face to face and have lunch together."

Half an hour later, Huang Xin arrived at the hotel restaurant, noticeably low in spirit.

After ordering lunch, Huang Xin began recounting the morning's events in detail, becoming angrier as he spoke: "Damn it, it's nothing but an excuse! My performance was great; it shouldn't be me getting laid off..."

Wu Wei waited for him to vent, then calmly analyzed: "Huang Xin, this matter was probably caused by Liu Lili."

Huang Xin was taken aback: "Liu Lili?"

"Yes."

Wu Wei nodded: "Yesterday, when you cursed at her, you mentioned seeing her together with President Zhang. Today, she's likely told Zhang Quan about it. Zhang Quan, guilty as he is, wouldn't dare keep you in the company, so he devised a reason to get rid of you."

Huang Xin suddenly realized, then angrily slammed the table: "Damn it! Those two bastards!"

Wu Wei waited for him to calm down a bit, then said: "In the end, this is related to me. If it weren't for you speaking up for me yesterday, this wouldn't have been revealed."

Huang Xin shook his head: "It's not your fault. I didn't think it through, and seeing her face made me angry!"

"Since things have come to this point, as a brother, I can't just sit idly by."

Wu Wei thought for a bit and said seriously: "Here's the deal, I'll give you two options."

Huang Xin looked up at him.

Wu Wei extended a finger: "The first option, if you want to return or even vent your frustrations, take the incident with Zhang Quan and Liu Lili, and directly talk to Zhang Quan. Clearly tell him that if you're fired, you'll disclose all the details—the time, place, and evidence—to his wife or post them in the company group. Someone like him fears domestic trouble affecting his family the most. He likely won't dare fire you, and he might even promote and give you a raise to keep you quiet, giving you a cushy position."

Huang Xin listened and his eyes brightened; this was indeed a crafty move.

But he couldn't help asking: "What about... the second option?"

Wu Wei looked at him seriously: "The second option, team up with me."

Huang Xin's eyes widened.

Wu Wei continued: "I'm planning to formally start some business in Nanjin and enter the physical industry. I need trustworthy people to help manage the early affairs of the company here. The compensation will definitely be better than you had at Chenxing."

Wu Wei had his own considerations.

Generally speaking, he was unwilling to have deep financial ties with friends or relatives.

Human nature is unpredictable, and examples of falling out over interests are too many.

However, this time is different; Huang Xin lost his job because of him.

And more importantly, in the future, he will have the ultimate "Loyalty Contract" trick.

Once Zhang Yunyao's favorability reaches 100 points and he obtains the contract, using it on Huang Xin will completely eliminate the risk of betrayal.

This not only resolves the dilemma between friendship and employing people but also offers Huang Xin a better future.

"What's there to choose? It's gotta be teaming up with you!"

Huang Xin, without any hesitation, his face reinvigorated, decisively said: "Working with you is a thousand times better than enduring that crappy company!"

"Alright."

Wu Wei smiled: "Then let's start by setting up the company structure in Nanjin. Step one, register the company, step two..."

Huang Xin became excited immediately, rubbing his hands together: "Great! Once our company grows big and strong, we'll poach all of Chenxing Network's key staff! Let Zhang Quan be a one-man commander and see if he can still be arrogant! Let him lay me off!"

Wu Wei, infected by his enthusiasm, also felt a pinch of malicious pleasure, immediately said: "Alright! Let's do that when the time comes!"

Then, over the meal, they enthusiastically discussed the specific matters of the new company.

What name to give it, how much capital to register, what scope to set for operations, where to choose the office location...

The more they talked, the more involved they became. Their lunch extended for nearly two hours and then continued in the hotel's conference room.

It wasn't until after dinner that Huang Xin, filled with vigor and anticipation, reluctantly left.

After seeing Huang Xin off, Wu Wei checked the time—it was past seven in the evening.

He pondered a bit, got up, and walked to the Deji Square below the hotel.

The evening at Deji Square was brightly lit and bustling, living up to its reputation as "Eastern China's top luxury venue."

With last year's sales reaching a nationwide second at 23.9 billion yuan, the first and second floors are almost exclusively world-class luxury brands.

The purpose of Wu Wei's visit was clear: to select a fitting gift for the imminent meeting with Feng Yushi.

This would give her a good first impression, showcase his financial capability a bit, and allow him to see her detailed information.

Feng Yushi is an art student studying oil painting, and her family conditions are good, so the gift for her shouldn't just be expensive but must also have taste and artistic flair.

As Wu Wei strolled and browsed the stores of various brands, he contemplated what might be the most suitable item.

Just then, his peripheral vision caught a somewhat familiar figure passing in the distance near the store entrance.

Wu Wei instinctively turned his gaze.

The figure belonged to a middle-aged man with a slightly plump figure, dressed in an elegant business suit, walking alongside a woman with an exceptionally graceful shape.

Wu Wei instantly recognized him as his former boss—Zhang Quan.

But the woman, judging by her back, was neither Liu Lili nor the somewhat portly wife of Zhang Quan he remembered.

This woman had a tall figure, estimated to be around 1.7 meters, with beautiful long hair draped down her back.

She wore a tight-fitting knitted dress paired with a short white fur jacket, perfectly outlining an astonishing body curve.

Below the dress were sleek bare-leg Divine Artifact, with slender and well-proportioned lines.

Just her back alone radiated a strong visual impact, deserving the title "back-view killer."

Seeing this, Wu Wei's mouth curved into a knowing yet slightly mocking smile.

Zhang Quan is indeed "busy."

He originally had no intention of acknowledging it, but just then, the woman beside him, the back-view beauty, turned to look at the shop on the right. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Wu Wei took a glance at her strikingly charming side profile and suddenly found it familiar.

He knew this woman...

Wu Wei's face suddenly expressed a particularly spectacular reaction.

Now things were starting to get interesting...

He quickly took out his phone, opened the camera, aimed it at the gradually distancing couple—

Then pressed the shutter.

The Huawei telescope indeed lived up to its reputation; even from afar, the photo was crystal clear.

Zhang Quan's back and the woman's side profile were both clearly visible...
