Chapter 79 Part 3 一 The initial user is retiring!
She was just an intern, and she didn’t have much work assigned. Moreover, the operations team consisted of those few people to begin with, and no one was dismissed or asked to help with Lu Xuan’s workload.
Lu Xuan followed Ruan Yōu confidently, heading to the celebration dinner hosted by Wen Juxi in the evening.
The celebration dinner took place in a unique bar.
This bar was no ordinary one.
Located in a quaint and picturesque suburban town, tonight was the Lantern Festival, and there were activities involving lantern viewing and eating tangyuan1.
Needless to say, there would be a lot of people there tonight.
Wen Juxi sent her two photos.
Red fish lanterns hung on the stone bridge, adorned with red lanterns and various colorful lanterns on both sides. The streets were immersed in the warmth of red, as captured by a photographer during last year’s event.
a strong festive atmosphere.
Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan were looking forward to it.
It was quite a long drive, about two and a half hours.
After picking up Lu Xuan, Ruan Yōu strolled with her on the street for a while, soaking in the festive atmosphere. Each of them had a sugar-coated hawthorn on a stick.
Lu Xuan quickly pushed aside the awkwardness brought by the incident with Qi Nuo and the video.
The Lantern Festival was not a holiday, and the RG team didn’t have a break as they were preparing for the upcoming Spring Tournament next week.
After Qi Nuo returned to the e-sports club, aside from a half-hour phone call with his family in the evening, he handed his phone over to the team leader to avoid getting distracted.
When Qi Nuo went to the training room with Sanjiu and the others, he passed by Lu Xuan’s office.
There is no one in the empty office.
Qi Nuo pursed his lips and silently continued to the training room.
. . . . .
Ruan Yōu and Lu Xuan played outside all afternoon. At 5 o’clock in the afternoon, they sat at a café near the Bozhan office building, waiting for Gu Fuchen, Fu Jiazhan, Lu Jin, Jiang Huai, and Qi Zhiyan.
They agreed to go together.
Lu Xuan sat across from Ruan Yōu, secretly watching CP videos of the Little Princess and the Young Master.
After watching for two seconds, she hastily closed it.
She stared blankly at the WeChat RG team work group.
Ruan Yōu didn’t notice her unusual behavior.
She thought of something she needed to do.
Now that Gu Min’s situation was resolved, Cheng Guyuan had no one to rely on, lost his last hope, and was even blacklisted by Wen Juxi. Without Ruan Yōu’s intervention, Wen Juxi would seek revenge on Cheng Guyuan for his involvement in the engagement of Wen Cheng and Gu Min.
The initial user played a small role in Gu Min’s situation, and Sheng Tong’s interview article even thanked her and “Lao Chu.”
Netizens were all trying to figure out who “Lao Chu” really was.
In the business circle, rumors about “Lao Chu” were spreading widely, and Ruan Yōu was getting a bit anxious.
Now that all the things that need to be solved by the initial user have been solved, this vest has no value left.
Ruan Yōu wanted to make this vest disappear without a trace.
She already had a reason in mind.
Having earned enough money, she could now focus on spending time with her daughter and officially announce her retirement.
Supporting her middle-aged old man persona and a daughter’s slave.
Ruan Yōu logged into the initial user’s WeChat account and opened the Moments.
She thought of something and then opened her photo album to find photos related to business.
Since it was the last retirement Moments post, it had to be ceremonious. Besides text, there had to be photos.
Ruan Yōu found a suitable photo.
It was taken in the lobby on the first floor. At that time, her brother and parents were not at home. She held a document and found a sunny spot to camp and picnic, eating and reading the document.
It was about Gu Min’s investment case.
Posting this could also indicate that the collaboration between the initial user and Ruan Yōu had officially ended, and they had no further contact, completely cut off.
Three minutes later, a Moments post appeared in the middle-aged entrepreneur’s WeChat.
【Lao Chu: Thank you for your support. The last case is over, and I plan to retire and spend time with my daughter. I won’t get involved in young people’s affairs anymore. With the vast sky above and a long road ahead, farewell forever. [image]】
There were a bunch of question marks in the comments.
【Lao Chu, don’t leave!!】
【Lao Chu, did you make a big profit and run away?】
【Jiang Huai: ?】
Five minutes later, Jiang Huai immediately sent a screenshot of this Moments post to Ruan Yōu to see.
【Bodhisattva sister, what happened?】
【You gave him too much, and he ran away!】
【Fat Cat: …Well, I earned quite a bit too.】
By investing in stocks, she made a decent profit.
Now, many people are looking at what Lao Chu is investing in, and they follow suit, making a profit one after another.
Jiang Huai didn’t know what to say and quickly forwarded the message to Gu Fuchen.
The collaboration between Bodhisattva sister and Lao Chu came to an end, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to Bodhisattva sister’s career.
Although she herself seemed to not care much.
But as a friend, Jiang Huai felt heartache for Bodhisattva sister!
It’s not a person leaving; it’s money! A lot of money!!
【Jiang Huai: Ruan Chenchen, your sister’s investment advisor ran away with the money.】
【Ruan Chenchen: ? ? ? ? ?】
【Jiang Huai: How about finding out Lao Chu’s whereabouts and persuading him to earn for a couple more years? Who can’t get along with money?】
While Jiang Huai was anxiously waiting, Gu Fuchen sat in his office, wishing he could open a bottle of champagne to celebrate.
Persuade the initial user to come back?
Did he crazy??
Ruan Chenchen had been hoping for Lao Chu’s retirement for a long time.
His abilities were absolutely not inferior to Lao Chu’s. Lao Chu could make strange money-making advice for his sister, and he could do it too!
Starting from today, Ruan Chenchen announced that he successfully replaced Lao Chu and became his sister’s sole investment advisor.
Not long after, the Top Wealthy Octet Group learned of Lao Chu’s retirement news and discussed it in the group.
It wasn’t just them; many people in the initial user’s circle of friends left comments trying to persuade.
After Fu Jiazhan learned the news, he immediately asked Ruan Yōu.
【Fu Jiazhan: Aren’t you considering persuading him to stay?】
Fu Jiazhan knew that this initial user had allowed Ruan Yōu to enjoy spending and making money happily, and this person had brought a lot of happiness to Ruan Yōu’s life.
【Fat Cat: Nah~ I’ve made enough money too~】
She had played and fooled around enough. There was no need to use the initial user’s vest anymore.
Initially, she had used this vest to secretly enjoy making money, and later, she had used it to protect their family. Now that everything was resolved, she wanted to spend money boldly and didn’t need to use this vest anymore.
The danger had passed, what else was there that she couldn’t let her family know?
Seeing that Ruan Yōu didn’t seem disappointed or have any negative emotions, Fu Jiazhan didn’t try to persuade her further.
Half an hour later, the seven of them gathered and drove to the bar.
Wen Juxi arrived ahead of them, getting things set up and bringing wine.
Ruan Yōu, Fu Jiazhan, Jiang Huai, and Gu Fuchen shared one car, while Lu Xuan, Lu Jin, and Qi Zhiyan shared another.
Lu Xuan didn’t come over to sit with Ruan Yōu; it was purely because she wanted to occupy a seat at the back alone and read online comments about her and Qi Nuo.
In Ruan Yōu’s car, Jiang Huai was driving.
Gu Fuchen and Ruan Yōu sat in the back, and Fu Jiazhan was still in the passenger seat.
Fu Jiazhan and Gu Fuchen didn’t persuade Ruan Yōu, but Jiang Huai, as a business partner, wanted to.
“Bodhisattva sister, that’s all money. I think you should reconsider.”
“No.”
Jiang Huai thought for a moment. If Bodhisattva sister couldn’t see the value in letting Lao Chu go, she would definitely regret it in the future. To prevent her from regretting, he had to do something.
During a red light, Jiang Huai turned around and asked seriously, “Bodhisattva sister, should we organize a retirement farewell party for Lao Chu? At least he has been in this business circle, and he should leave happily.”
Ruan Yōu: ?
At the same time, Gu Fuchen sent a message to the initial user with a smile.
【If you say you’re leaving, just go; no need to say goodbye. Ruan Yōu has me by her side.】
一一An investment advisor who is better than you.
Ruan Yōu, who received the message, turned her head and looked at her brother as if he were a fool.
