Chapter 197: Inexplicable Guilt
"Mr. Gu, you're late."
Cheng Xueqing looked at the watch on Hao's wrist and said.
It was a pink-gold watch with a rose-red strap that matched her complexion, and if you read it right, it was Jaeger-LeCoultre, about the price of a luxury car.
The woman with a car tied to her hands was wearing a dark blue custom OL-style dress with a skirt no more than one or two centimeters up to her knees, and a pure white Chanel slim-fit professional jacket with sleeves that just covered her elbows, revealing two white forearms.
This dress is extremely simple, but every detail and line is cut just right, with the watch and Bulgari's earrings, every place is exquisite, but not overly ostentatious, it looks dignified and calm.
Obviously, Cheng Xueqing's professional dress is positioning this dinner within the scope of business entertainment.
Gu Laogou was very happy that Cheng Xueqing could define this dinner in this way, but he felt that she was wearing such a dress and came to the small pavilion to eat a small barbecue mixed with oil smoke, which seemed to be a little out of place in temperament, just like a handsome and innocent man like himself, and the pink light of the street hair salon was always a little incompatible, so he still hadn't gone to see whether the supermarket Lao Wang was washing his feet or washing his soul in the Love Pavilion.
In fact, Cheng Xueqing also realized this when she saw the barbecue grill, she originally wanted to go back and change her clothes, but it didn't matter if she thought about it later, anyway, she was incompatible with Gu Yun.
But because of what is out of place, she can't think of it for a while, after all, everything people do, even if it is strange at the beginning, the ending is recognized and even admired by herself.
"Sorry, two minutes late." Gu Laogou apologized to Cheng Xueqing very gracefully, and then said, "But the moon is very beautiful tonight, if you can calm down and look at the moon scenery for a while, you may not care about these two minutes." ”
Cheng Xueqing frowned, thinking that she arrived here a quarter of an hour earlier in order not to be late, you are good, it is reasonable to be late?
Is it OK to be tired standing in high heels?
couldn't help sneering, "Has Mr. Gu always been so reasonable?" ”
"It's not reasonable." Gu Yun turned on the induction cooker, poured some water into the pot on the stove, covered the pot, and then said to Cheng Xueqing, "I mean, since you want to wait for someone, you will find the fun of waiting for someone." Many things in this world may not be to your liking, so it is better to jump out and look at the bigger world, and maybe there are new discoveries. ”
Gu Laogou said that these are naturally not to defend himself, but from now on he wants to imperceptibly influence Cheng Xueqing, so that she has the basic qualities that a qualified businessman needs, after all, if she wants to help her to take the position, she herself has to be a little bit like it, at least don't be muddy and can't support the wall.
That's right, from Gu Laogou's point of view, President Cheng Xueqing is too tender now, as tender as a chick, and he is not qualified to wrestle with those treacherous and cunning capitalists.
Hey, wait, is she a chick or not? It's 23 years old...... This question is kind of interesting.
Cheng Xueqing naturally didn't know that Gu Yun was thinking about such a deep-seated question, but she felt that Gu Yun seemed to be quibbling, but she felt that there seemed to be a little bit of truth.
I couldn't help but look up at the sky, and sure enough, I saw a bright full moon, and even a few looming stars.
It's a beautiful night tonight.
This reminds me of the time when I was a child, before I went abroad, before the Cheng family did not have such a big business, the whole family sat in the yard at night and listened to my grandfather's story, and the moon at that time was as big and round as it is today.
It was as if it had been a long time since I had seen a moon like this.
She suddenly remembered that she had been here for almost half a year, and this kind of moonlight should not have appeared for the first time, so she hadn't found it before, just because she had never wanted to find it.
Cheng Xueqing knew that the reason why she was incompatible with Gu Yun was there, probably because she was not as "coquettish" as him, so she just watched the moonlight and ate a small barbecue when she had nothing to do...... Maybe a bubble girl by the way.
Gu Laogou is a very coquettish person, if he is not coquettish, he will not eat in a three-star Michelin restaurant, but he prefers to eat barbecue in the small pavilion under the moon.
Coquettish was originally a positive word, in ancient times, the "Book of Songs" called "wind", "Chu Ci" was "Sao", coquettish is the combined name of the two, and the later metaphor is outstanding, as for the evolution of its derogatory meaning, it is only a matter of recent decades.
If it was put before, Gu Laogou would be more coquettish, but the focus may be on the latter word.
Cheng Xueqing came back to her senses, and when she looked down at Gu Yun again, she found that he had poured warm water into a glass container, and at the same time, there were a lot of fruits in the container, such as mangoes, yellow peaches, grapes, etc., and it seemed that some other ingredients had been added, which looked strange and beautiful.
Is he going to make sweet soup, I heard that the "mother-in-law tea" he makes is very delicious, and it is the signature of Zhou Da's store.
Cheng Xueqing silently stood aside and watched Gu Yun's operation, her mood was a little complicated.
She thinks that Gu Yun's intention to chase after her is already obvious, and a boy cooks something for a girl to eat, obviously trying to please that girl and show his charm by the way.
She admits that this technique is slightly more advanced than sending flowers or inviting you to a high-end restaurant, after all, there is still a bit of technical content in it.
But she didn't think she would eat him, after all, in essence, it was no different from the boys who chased her with a purpose.
But why are you still looking forward to it?
What kind of soup is this, it looks delicious, why do you smell a nice aroma before it's ready?
Cheng Xueqing quickly condemned her superficial emotions and reminded herself that the main purpose of this appointment was not to eat, but to talk to him about business.
Thinking of this, she said, "By the way, Mr. Gu, last time you said that you could make the shares of those shareholders led by Changyin Capital disappear, I want to hear your thoughts." ”
Gu Yun continued to be busy with his work, and said casually, "Is it just to inquire about this, so you agreed to eat with me?" ”
Cheng Xueqing thinks that she knows men very well, if she admits this fact, Gu Yun will definitely feel very faceless, and even sad, a child at this age probably can't accept the girl he likes to hit him like this, right?
So he thought for a moment and said, "I invited you to dinner, of course, because I wanted to thank you." As for the question just now, it was purely out of curiosity, and I also want to know how to cooperate with you. ”
Cheng Xueqing sighed in her heart after speaking, thinking that sometimes being beautiful is also a burden, if he looks mediocre, then he won't have so many thoughts about himself, and some things can be talked about openly and honestly, so why beat around the bush.
But...... Maybe it's because he's beautiful and he wants to chase after him, so he helps himself?
That's still pretty.
Wait a minute, then now that I know this and don't refuse, and I still hope that he will continue to help him, does it count...... Taking advantage of his feelings?
Is it a toy to say bigger?
Cheng Xueqing's mood became more and more complicated, and she found that she was like a scheming green tea, playing with the feelings of an 18-year-old boy, which made her unable to look directly into her heart.
Gu Laogou never thought that after hundreds of thousands of years of reincarnation and living to this world, there are still women in this world who think they can play with themselves - if there is, he thinks that it doesn't hurt to be toyed with, it depends on how he plays.
But don't blame him, the rich inner world under Cheng Xueqing's cold eyes, this world is probably something that no one can guess.
The "Qianmen Alley Luoying Soup" is ready, and the steam mixed with special spices and fruit aromas is bubbling up, and the smell is very gluttonous.
Gu Yun first filled a large bowl and put it on the table.
Cheng Xueqing pretended not to care and glanced at it, swallowed her saliva quickly while Gu Yun was unprepared, and then said, "I can't eat that much." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yun put a fist-sized small cup in front of her, there was only soup and no fruit in it, and then said ruthlessly, "Then you can eat this." ”
It seems that she doesn't understand women, and she doesn't know how to behave.
Cheng Xueqing couldn't help but give Gu Yun a cold look.
But she didn't think too much, after all, she always had very little dinner.
"Drink some soup first, and I'll make something else later." Gu Yun said something to Cheng Xueqing, and then sat down first, holding a big bowl, picked up the spoon and ate it unceremoniously.
Cheng Xueqing also sat down on the stone bench, her stone bench was cushioned, and the cushion was specially brought from the office.
Picking up a spoonful of soup, her lips slightly opened, and she took a small sip.
The extreme sweetness mixed with the fruity aroma brings an extremely comfortable taste, and the fragrance from the mouth to the nose makes her feel refreshed.
Really...... It's delicious.
Looking at the big bowl in front of Gu Yun, she suddenly felt that she still had the strength to eat those.
"It's delicious." She said.
Gu Yun immediately responded greasy, "Delicious?" Then I'll cook it for you often in the future, okay? ”
Cheng Xueqing was stunned, it's not impossible...... That's impossible, would a twenty-three-year-old self eat this routine?
There are really a lot of rogue routines, but it's a pity that they are still a little tender in front of my sister.
So he smiled professionally and said, "No, Mr. Gu is so busy, how can he be embarrassed to occupy your time." ”
"It's okay, as long as you like it, no matter how busy I am, I have time." Gu Laogou said again.
He himself felt a little greasy about this, so he didn't believe that Cheng Xueqing couldn't sweat his hairs.
Cheng Xueqing's hair didn't get up, but the guilt in her heart became stronger and stronger.
She felt that she was really taking advantage of Gu Yun's feelings.
Although Cheng Dalei has repeatedly mentioned to her that Gu Yun is a scumbag and has several girlfriends, she is not sure about this now.
Because of the background check of the security director of the family, there is a relationship status, which says that there are indeed many girls who like to play with Gu Yun, and one of them is his sister who is the closest, but overall, he is currently single.
If the investigation is true, the girls may be wishful thinking and ...... themselves Could it be the first girl he liked?
"Not really, thank you." Cheng Xueqing continued to refuse, but her eyes softened much more.
I can't bear to hurt!
Gu Yun smiled, "Okay, whatever you want." ”
This kind of thing naturally can't be forced too hard, as long as it arouses Cheng Xueqing's disgust, if it is forced again, it is likely to be too much and affect future cooperation.
Gu Laogou thinks that he has a good grasp of all aspects.
In this way, at least emotionally, Cheng Xueqing has become defensive of herself, but it is not so easy to fall in love with herself.
So I decided to get down to business.
said, "You just asked me, how did you make the shares of those people in Changyin Capital disappear, right?" ”
"Yes." Cheng Xueqing had already finished drinking the shallow soup, glanced at Gu Yun's big bowl of soup, and then said, "I don't know what Mr. Gu's countermeasures are?" ”
"Simple." Gu Yun put down the spoon and said, "First of all, let me ask you, when you found out about the company's financial crisis, did you react to the shareholders of Changyin Capital?" ”
Cheng Xueqing nodded, "Of course." The day after I arrived, I emailed them after checking the accounts, asking them to consider a capital increase, and informing them that if they didn't increase their capital, the company might go out of business due to a broken capital chain. ”
"And how did they get there?"
Cheng Xueqing smiled bitterly, "All shareholders have replied that I will not increase the capital." Their purpose is simple, they want the company to go out of business, even at the cost of their investment here. ”
After a pause, he said in a low tone, "This company has a lot of interests at stake, and you may not know this." ”
Gu Yun smiled slightly, "I probably know something." ”
"How do you know? Did Grandpa tell you? Cheng Xueqing was a little surprised.
"You don't have to worry about this." Gu Yun said again, "Then, things will be easier now." As the head of the company, you have proposed a capital increase to the majority shareholder, but the majority shareholder has refused. Now, before they can react, you immediately submit a request to the board of directors to sell the shares and bring in external capital. ”
"You mean bringing in new capital to dilute their shares?" Cheng Xueqing thought for a while and said, "Now that the board of directors is in our hands, there is no problem in selling shares." Just ......"
Some people are embarrassed, "If you want to dilute their shares, you need a lot of money, and I can't use my own funds and those of stakeholders......"
Gu Yun interrupted, "I invest 80 million, how many shares can I buy?" ”
"Not enough." Cheng Xueqing shook her head, "According to the current residual value of 500 million in this project, 80 million can only acquire 16% of the shares, which can't dilute them much." ”
"Then choose to issue additional shares." Gu Yun took another sip of soup and chuckled, "Increasing the number of hair until they are confused." ”
"Additional issuance?" Cheng Xueqing thought about it again, but still shook her head and said, "According to the articles of association, the original shareholders of the additional shares have the right of first refusal. Now they probably already know the news of Guzhen, if we add an additional issue, he will know that we want to dilute the shares, and then they are likely to adopt the strategy of giving as much as they want to subscribe, so that they still can't dilute their shares. ”
"Who said they subscribed?" Gu Laogou smiled faintly again, "I will let you issue additional issues to specific targets, the kind that the original shareholders are not allowed to subscribe for." If they don't agree, we hold a general meeting of shareholders and force the resolution. As long as the additional issuance will not be deemed by the regulatory authorities to have harmed the rights and interests of shareholders. ”
Cheng Xueqing was stunned and asked, "How does this work?" Other than that...... To whom? ”
"Me!"
