Chapter 313: Encountering a Short Side
"It's a long story, though. I've had some problems lately, and I've heard that you're investing in something new, so can you do me a favor?" William was also embarrassed when he said this, because he knew that Shen Zhuxi was a little short on money.
In this way, it is simply embarrassing Shen Zhuxi.
"So how do you want me to help you?" Shen Zhuxi raised his eyebrows.
"I want you to join my brother's partner and invest. William glanced at Shen Zhuxi with some embarrassment, in fact, such words were not suitable to talk about in front of Chu Kuo, but at this time, ......
"Who asked you to do this?" Shen Zhuxi sat down on the sofa with his hands on his chest.
Chu Kuo also knew this, and was curious about what kind of rhetoric William would use to persuade Shen Zhuxi.
"I ......" William glanced at Shen Zhuxi and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's a long story at this point, but my brother has also had fluctuations, so I hope I can save it. William followed Shen Zhuxi to sit on the sofa with a sincere expression.
"It's not something for me to decide, because I'm just getting started. Shen Zhuxi's face became colder and colder.
As a friend, you really shouldn't have such thoughts, this is undoubtedly pushing Shen Zhuxi into the fire pit, wanting her to have a fork in this circle.
"Baby, just help me this time. William looked helpless.
In fact, the incident happened suddenly, and he was also caught off guard. My brother approached him and told him that there had been a big mess in the business partners recently, and he hoped that he could help them.
"I refuse. Shen Zhuxi frowned, seeing William's expression, he still wanted to help his good friend, but he couldn't think of any other way at the moment.
"Or there is a very popular manuscript at the moment, and I can help try to negotiate a contract with the other party. Shen Zhuxi kindly introduced.
That's not true. William paused at this point.
"The main thing is that your current hot spots are high, and finding you to join can attract a lot of traffic. In the end, William told the truth, but he also knew that his best friend would be angry.
"So the attention will get higher and higher?" Hearing this, Shen Zhuxi's face became colder and colder.
"Since you know how much this matter will affect me, then why do you still want to help him?" Speaking of this, Shen Zhuxi looked at William with a sense of danger and anger in his eyes.
She has always regarded William as her most sincere best friend, who would have thought that he would treat her like this.
"If I really were like this, how could I possibly tell you why. Seeing that Shen Zhuxi's attitude towards himself was getting colder and colder, William couldn't help but argue.
"Hmph. Shen Zhuxi snorted coldly.
"Well, I didn't know that you had endured so much in China at the time, so I was worried that your fans in the United States would also lose more than half, and I wanted to make your recent popularity more popular through this method, so that your reputation might not be affected too much. William felt that this was the most effective method at the moment, although it was a bit negative.
"Do you think this method can effectively preserve my reputation?" Shen Zhuxi almost kicked William on the side, who would use such an ignorant method?
"Don't you think?" William is also good for Shen Zhuxi, no matter whether the method is useful or not, he still wants to help Shen Zhuxi, all out of his own kindness.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you, I won't do it anyway. Shen Zhuxi refused as always.
Although this will make himself popular in the near future, it will have a serious impact on his reputation in the later stage, and Shen Zhuxi doesn't want to take this risk and doesn't bother to do so.
"Baby. William tried to convince Shen Zhuxi to get her to promise him.
"No!" Shen Zhuxi refused rhetorically, his eyes full of determination.
William gave her a worried look, a look of disappointment.
"Baby, but there's nothing else I can do to help you. William suddenly felt that he was very useless, that he had not been able to help his friend in the most dangerous moment, and that he had really failed.
"It's okay, I have a solution, you don't have to worry too much. Knowing that William was dedicated to his own good, Shen Zhuxi's attitude also softened, and he was no longer as hard as he was just now.
"I checked over the wall, and it was said that you were slandered because you were a man. That man ......." William said, and suddenly looked at Chu Kuo, his eyes full of vigilance.
"It's me. Chu Kuo straightened the sleeves at his wrists, and opened his mouth without being salty or light.
"Baby?" William obviously didn't expect Chu Kuo to admit himself so readily, and was slightly surprised, and then turned his gaze to Shen Zhuxi, wanting her to prove it.
Shen Zhuxi was not ready, and she was drinking water, when she was suddenly choked: "Ahem." β
Shen Zhuxi has pharyngitis, and his cough is very uncomfortable at the moment, and his eyes can't help but turn red.
When Chu Kuo saw her situation, he immediately ran into the kitchen to get her medicine. Shen Zhuxi likes to put medicine in the kitchen, and Chu Kuo has always known her little habit.
"Baby, I'm sorry. William patted Shen Zhuxi's back awkwardly, and poured water for her.
Shen Zhuxi saw that he was full of water, so he spilled a lot of it when he picked it up, and glared at William fiercely.
"Baby, he's that guy, he looks okay, but why don't you think about me? Why isn't that kid from Gu Huaizuo?" A series of questions made Shen Zhuxi cough even more. Pythagorean Library
"Stop, stop!" Shen Zhuxi's throat is now uncomfortable to death, and William is still trying to make problems for herself, she now has to suspect that she has made fake friends.
Seeing her look of resistance, William couldn't help but touch his nose, lowered his head and said aggrievedly: "Okay, as long as you're happy." β
"Okay, okay, a big man is still wronged, who are you disgusting. Finally stopped coughing, and Shen Zhuxi immediately gave William a punch.
Now thinking about William's appearance as a wronged little daughter-in-law just now, Shen Zhuxi felt a tremor down his spine.
It's too disobedient, William looks resolute, very authentic gringo, dark blue pupils, thin body, and looks like a serious staff. Shen Zhuxi felt that she was still more accustomed to William's appearance when he was cold.
"If you eat one, you might feel better. I'll get you some later. Chu Kuo took out a box of medicine and handed it to Shen Zhuxi.
Shen Zhuxi frowned a little when she saw the medicine, she didn't like to take medicine, she could even say that she hated it.
William was interested, knowing that there was nothing to do with herself here, and through Shen Zhuxi's small eyes, he could know that she was still biased towards this man in her heart at this time.
"Forget it, I'll bless you anyway. William got up and was about to leave.
Shen Zhuxi was absent-minded, and he didn't bother to argue with him about what he just said, anyway, the direction of public opinion thought so.
Shen Zhuxi felt that he still had to return to China early, and he was very restricted from doing things here.
A loud "bang" came from the office, and William's boss looked angrily at the documents that William had just handed in, and looked at him coldly.
People outside the office looked at each other, curious about what was going on inside.
They are all people who envy William, because a certain boss always protects William and gives William the best resources in his hand, and the two of them are like buddies.
"Why do you think they're arguing?" asked Editor A, looking curiously at the office.
"It is said that it is because William's good friend is unwilling to sign a contract with our company. B curled his head and replied.
"It's a trifle. A looks at C suspiciously, hoping that C will give him a better answer.
"Shhhhhh A certain boss's assistant came over at this time, and D immediately gagged them, and almost let the assistant hear these words.
Seeing that the assistant was about to leave, D muttered in a low voice: "Actually, it's not a big deal, don't you know? Our company has recently had financing problems, which is a bit risky, and a certain boss hopes to contact Shen Zhuxi to survive this catastrophe." β
"What's wrong!" A exclaimed.
B couldn't help but slap him on the head and accuse: "Let you be quiet, do you want the whole world to hear it so loudly?"
A immediately hung his head in embarrassment and continued to listen to them.
"Shen Zhuxi, do you mean the author who has been very popular in recent years?" The people not far away heard this name and joined their discussion curiously.
"William, do you know how much I hope for your bag?" said a certain boss, James, looking at the data on the file in disappointment.
"I'm also very helpless about this, Shen Zhuxi is my friend, and I don't want her to fall into notoriety, not to mention that you are making matters worse. William was a little angry, feeling that James was selfish and selfish.
"Are you helpless? heh, you are helpless, so why don't you go over and talk to her?" James has experienced many vicissitudes of life, and he doesn't believe that there is any precious friendship in this world.
"Am I not here for you? You're always whispering this and that in my ear. I tried it, but I felt guilty. William couldn't help but complain.
"Don't think I'm your brother, you can speak your mind. James was annoyed, his brother had been making trouble for him since he came to his company, and he didn't think it was big enough, and now he poked out this basket.
"Anyway, no one is out there. William pouted, his brother was just cautious.
"Do you think that the sky is falling, and someone else will hold it up for you?" James couldn't help but feel a pain in his head when he saw his younger brother.
"Now that the partner is in a critical period, what I need is efficiency. James looked at William coldly, hoping that he would give himself a good answer.
"You also know that the times are different from the past, and we are under a lot of competitive pressure. James didn't think he was putting enough pressure on him, so he continued to press.
"It's not like I don't want to help you. However, we are not only Shen Zhuxi, why do we have to find her to stir up the heat?"
"That's enough, look at this stat!" James threw the stat sheet in his hand directly in front of William.
William couldn't bear to see this list full of red bars, and frowned: "Shen Zhuxi said that she can help us write another work." β
"I think this might help us. William glanced tentatively at his brother's eyes.
"You're still too naΓ―ve. James let out a long sigh, slumped back in his chair, and said no more.
William knew he was bored and left James' office.
"Shhhh Everyone left quietly, and when they saw William come out, they didn't have the courage to talk about it right under people's noses.
"So you guys were talking about me just now?" William glanced at the crowd, he knew very well what had just happened here, and his face was ugly.
