I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

Chapter 301 Both Open Their Hearts! Is His Net Worth Still Over 100 Million, or 200 Million?

"Brother~"

When Xinling saw Gu Yifan, she perked up and greeted him politely.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Gu Yifan's face and she couldn't look away.

"Gu Yifan, you're here. I haven't even had a chance to chat with Xinling for very long," Lin Wanyu said, smacking her lips with a hint of regret.

"By the way, Xinling, it's not the weekend today, are you free? Want to come together?"

Upon hearing this, Xinling shook her head, feeling embarrassed, and said, "Erxi and I are planning to go to the driving school later."

Perhaps if Lin Wanyu isn't around, Xinling will be with her.

But she had just declined Lin Wanyu's invitation, and there wouldn't be any opportunities for her to follow up now, so she might as well hurry up and practice driving to get her driver's license.

"Alright then." Lin Wanyu nodded, not minding at all, and waved to Erxi, "Then we'll be going now."

"Bye-bye." Gu Yifan smiled at Erxi and Xinling.

Watch the car drive away.

"Oh, I'm so envious of Sister Wanyu. She doesn't have to go to school or work, and she can be so free and happy every day," Erxi exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Xinling blinked and said, "Then Erxi, you'll need a rich dad first."

Erxi chuckled, "Forget it, I'll just try my best to become a rich second-generation heir."

Xinling shrugged. "Don't worry, with me, I won't treat you badly."

Xinling persisted in speaking well of Gu Yifan and describing the wonderful life she would have with him.

Erxi and Xingchen both thought that Xinling was talking about going to work at Gu Yifan's company.

Little did anyone know, Cyndi was subtly trying to create a harem for her beloved.

"By the way, what did Sister Wanyu say just now?" Erxi turned and walked towards the restaurant.

Xinling lagged behind, turning her head to look at the departing car until it disappeared from sight, before catching up with Erxi.

After turning around, the nape of her neck, where her hair was tied up, was revealed, and her snow-white skin shone in the sunlight.

She wants me to move in with her.

"Huh?" Erxi said pitifully, "Xinling, you can't leave. If you leave, it'll just be me and Xingchen in our dorm."

"You know Xingchen, she's like a shut-in all day long. If you weren't here, the two of us would become the most boring dorm room in the girls' dormitory!"

Seeing Erxi's worry, Xinling asked with a smile, "Are you that reluctant to part with me?"

"Mmm!" Erxi nodded repeatedly.

Xinling thought for a moment, "Alright then, I won't leave. I'll stay and keep you company~"

Erxi exclaimed with delight, "Really!"

"uh-huh."

"That's wonderful! Xinling, your actions of not betraying the organization and remaining steadfast in the face of the temptation of wealth are commendable! After consideration, the organization has decided to award you the honor of Advanced Individual of Dormitory 101!"

Erxi said in a very serious tone!

"Is there anything more practical?" Xinling pouted and asked with a smile.

"Then I'll treat you to dinner," Erxi said reluctantly.

Although her wallet was already empty and her family hadn't given her any living expenses yet, Erxi still decided to treat Xinling to a meal in order to "keep" her good friend. She still had that much money.

"Forget it, I'll treat you instead," Xinling said, shaking her head.

Gu Yifan paid her two months' salary, even though Xinling tried her best to deduct the money she 'owed' to Gu Yifan.

However, she now holds too many positions, including logistics and procurement, company finance, and overtime pay.

I even received a five-figure sum.

Xinling stopped arguing with Gu Yifan. She was all Yifan's, so she would just accept the pocket money as a favor and consider it as helping Gu Yifan save money.

In case of any unforeseen circumstances in the future, although Xinling really doesn't want to see it happen, if it does, she can still use the money she has saved to help Gu Yifan in an emergency.

On this point, Cyndi's thoughts were surprisingly in agreement with Nolan's.

Erxi's expression brightened upon hearing this, but she hesitated and said, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"What's the big deal? Just go."

"Hehe, then I'd be unworthy of such an honor!"

"It would be impolite to refuse such an offer!"

"Oh, it's all the same. You know that person isn't very bright."

In the car.

Gu Yifan asked Lin Wanyu curiously what she and Xinling were talking about while they were laughing and chatting.

But Miss Lin clearly has her own little secrets, which she just won't tell anyone.

Gu Yifan didn't ask any more questions.

Neither he nor Xinling knew that they had missed a great opportunity.

Lin Wanyu's conversation with Hu Yifei last night was clearly more than just talk.

After arriving at the company.

Zhou Xuzhi and his three companions had already arrived and had been waiting downstairs for a long time.

Gu Yifan wondered why the four of them didn't go up. The four of them looked at each other, all of them a little shy and embarrassed.

Looking at the tall buildings in front of me.

The four were filled with excitement. From their school dormitory to the rented storefront nearby, they had now arrived at an office building in Shanghai's top business district.

We guys have now really entered the inner circle.

With Su Weiwei's help, the acquisition contract was quickly finalized.

However, when signing the papers, Gu Yifan insisted on putting the company under Lin Wanyu's name.

This greatly puzzled Su Weiwei and Lin Wanyu.

"Gu Yifan, why did you transfer it to me?" Lin Wanyu tugged at Gu Yifan's sleeve and asked in a puzzled whisper.

“I have too many companies under my control right now. Didn’t we agree yesterday that I would hand this company over to you to manage in order to gain Dad’s approval?”

Gu Yifan said matter-of-factly, raising his hand to gently ruffle Lin Wanyu's hair.

“There’s no need to give it to me,” Lin Wanyu said firmly, shaking her head.

For some reason, she remembered the bag that Gu Yifan had hidden under the bed.

Gu Yifan is definitely hiding something from her!
She won't fall for that so easily.

"obedient."

Gu Yifan knew Lin Wanyu wouldn't be happy, but this was something he had already planned.

Lin Wanyu remained silent, looking unhappy, and stared intently at Gu Yifan.

If Gu Yifan can't give a clear explanation, she definitely won't sign it.

Seeing this, Gu Yifan had no choice but to pull Lin Wanyu to his office first.

After closing the door, only the two of them remained in the office.

Gu Yifan turned around.

Seeing that Lin Wanyu was still looking at him with a slightly aggrieved expression.

Gu Yifan smiled at Lin Wanyu, who was pouting.

"Anyway, it's both of our companies, so it doesn't matter whose name it's registered under."

"You're not going to kick me out later, are you?"

Lin Wanyu bit her lip and answered with a muffled hum.

"That's hard to say."

"If you don't have a high opinion of this industry, what if you make a lot of money in the future and then become greedy and refuse to acknowledge me? There's nothing I can do about it."

Gu Yifan chuckled upon hearing this, stared at Lin Wanyu, and asked softly in return.

"Do you know?"

Gu Yifan didn't believe that.

If Lin Wanyu were truly greedy for money, she wouldn't be with him.

Instead, she listened to her father and went on a blind date with the son of a wealthy man whose family sold oil.

Moreover, compared to the hundreds of billions of US dollars in assets of Lin's International Bank, this is nothing.

Lin Wanyu knew she wouldn't do it, but she still stubbornly looked at Gu Yifan, wanting to know why he would do such a thing.

After a moment of stalemate, Gu Yifan sighed and hesitated before saying, "Actually, I've been planning to give you a gift for a while, but I just haven't found a suitable one yet."

Nuolan, Su Weiwei, and Xinling each received their own gifts, so how could Gu Yifan forget Lin Wanyu?

She's his official girlfriend.

"Huh?" Lin Wanyu blinked.

Gu Yifan pulled her to sit down on a chair, and after a moment of silence, he spoke seriously.

"I have to thank you all along."

Lin Wanyu was a little flustered and shy, "What are you thanking me for?"

Gu Yifan said gently, "As the eldest daughter of the Lin family bank, your future shouldn't have been like this."

"As a favored daughter of heaven, she goes to be with another talented boy with a powerful family background."

"Instead of now."

"What? I don't think there's anything wrong with it," Lin Wanyu said, about to retort, but Gu Yifan grabbed her hand.

Lin Wanyu couldn't help but look at him.

Gu Yifan said sincerely, "So, I want to thank Wanyu for choosing me so firmly."

Lin Wanyu pursed her lips, looking into Gu Yifan's eyes, which were as gentle as the stars in the night sky, as if a thousand words were gathered together.

"Fool."

She was a little embarrassed. Why did she suddenly say such sentimental things?

Lin Wanyu blushed, feeling shy.

I was moved to see Miss Lin.

Gu Yifan seized the opportunity and spoke his true thoughts.

"Since you were willing to argue with your father, abandon everything, and return to Shanghai for me, how could I possibly let you down?"

"I want to prove to your dad that I can give you a better life." "This company is also a gift."

"I hope that with your and my efforts, this company can grow bigger and stronger, so that we can prove to Uncle Lin that your choice was right."

Lin Wanyu's love for Gu Yifan is no less than that for Xinling and Nuolan.

On the contrary, Lin Wanyu's love was even more reckless and turbulent.

She was willing to reconcile with her father and back down for Gu Yifan's sake.

She was even willing to take on company business that she wasn't interested in before, just so she could be with Gu Yifan.

Furthermore, for the sake of Gu Yifan's career, she carefully selected company shares that might be helpful to him.

Gu Yifan saw all of Lin Wanyu's silent dedication.

It's impossible not to be moved.

His current cultivation level and his first pot of gold all came from Miss Lin.

My virtuous wife helped me achieve my lofty ambitions, and I rewarded her with ten thousand taels of gold.

Perhaps this company will become a behemoth in the future, a company with a market value of hundreds of billions.

But in Gu Yifan's eyes, she was far less important than Lin Wanyu.

So, are you going to refuse?

Lin Wanyu stared at Gu Yifan, then suddenly reached out and cupped Gu Yifan's cheeks, kneading them repeatedly while muttering something.

"Idiot, idiot, Gu Yifan, you're such a big idiot!"

You're driving me crazy!

"You really think that without you..."

"So I'm just going to do what you say, marry someone I don't like, and live what you call a better life?!"

"Pshaw, that's not true at all!"

"I will decide my own future!"

"Without you, I might be traveling all over the world by plane right now, attending the Harper's Bazaar fashion show in Milan today, and watching the sunset on the coast of New Zealand tomorrow."

"But I chose to stay in Shanghai, do you know why!"

Lin Wanyu lowered her head, face to face, and glared at Gu Yifan fiercely.

Gu Yifan seemed to see a resemblance to Yifei in her face.

Is it just an illusion?

"Why?" Gu Yifan asked after a moment of silence.

Lin Wanyu's face showed annoyance, and she gritted her teeth and shouted loudly at Gu Yifan.

"Of course it's because you're more important to me than traveling the world!"

"You don't need to thank me. I'm the one who should be thanking you all along!"

"You were the first person I met on my journey to freedom. You led me to Love Apartment and introduced me to everyone."

"Although you're a bit of a straight man, I've found that you're becoming more and more important to me."

Lin Wanyu revealed all her thoughts.
"If it weren't for you, Gu Yifan, I don't know if I would have given up that naive escape plan and obediently gone home."

"I don't think so," Gu Yifan said hesitantly.

Even without him, Lin Wanyu would probably have met Zhanbo, which is something Gu Yifan has always thought about.

"Shut up!" Lin Wanyu retorted loudly, "How do you know? Those are things that didn't happen."

At this moment, Miss Lin looks like a little lioness who has thrown a tantrum.

Beneath its harmless and beautiful exterior lies a surprising amount of domineering and wildness, like that of the king of beasts.

Gu Yifan was taken aback and fell silent.

"And I forbid you from thinking about life without me, and I don't want you to think about life without you either."

After saying so much in one breath, Lin Wanyu was a little out of breath, her chest heaving violently.

Her fair forehead was covered with messy stray hairs, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on Gu Yifan.

Without saying another word, she threw herself into Gu Yifan's arms and hugged him tightly.

"So, everything you just said is wrong, and it's impossible."

Lin Wanyu whispered in Gu Yifan's ear.

Sensing Lin Wanyu's feelings, her delicate body, slightly flushed and undulating, exuded the scent of perfume.

Gu Yifan was moved and fell silent.

He didn't expect that Miss Lin also felt indebted to him.

Perhaps love is about owing and giving to each other.
The day we figure things out and understand everything, we'll stop loving each other.

Gu Yifan gently stroked the back of Lin Wanyu's head to calm her agitated emotions.

"Don't get agitated. I'm not just saying this casually."

"I forbid you from thinking like that again." Lin Wanyu squinted her eyes, enjoying the moment, before muttering softly.

"Besides, my dad has already agreed to us being together, so don't put any pressure on yourself."

"I already said, even if you don't start a company, I'll support you from now on."

Gu Yifan smiled bitterly to himself. His original intention was just to give Lin Wanyu a gift and get some rebate. How come Lin Wanyu misunderstood him even more now?

Gu Yifan: Actually, I'm not as good as you think!
Let it be, let it all remain a beautiful misunderstanding.

"Do you still want this company?" Gu Yifan hesitated.

"Of course!" Lin Wanyu's eyes widened.

"This is a gift from you, Gu Yifan. No one can take more than what I give you. From now on, this company will be the fruit of our love. Don't worry, I will definitely make the company bigger and stronger."

Hearing this, Gu Yifan's heart skipped a beat again.

Don't be like that.

He was just saying it casually. Miss Lin could just sit back and relax, and at the very least, she'd get a company worth tens of billions. But if she actually got involved, it would be an outsider leading an expert.
The consequences are disastrous.

However, it's definitely not something I can say now, lest I spoil Lin Wanyu's mood.

Gu Yifan had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"However, you also have to accept a gift from me!" Lin Wanyu said suddenly after a moment of silence.

"what gift?"

About half an hour later.

Gu Yifan and Lin Wanyu came out of the office.

When she came out, Miss Lin had completely changed her pouty and unhappy appearance from the beginning; instead, she was humming a little tune with a smile.

Come to the conference room.

Behind him, Gu Yifan sighed helplessly, rubbing his nose. He'd never seen someone so happy while spending money.

Lin Wan-yu is going to personally invest 150 million US dollars in his animation and game companies!
This means Lin Wanyu is giving money to Gu Yifan for free. If you calculate it this way, he will soon have more than 200 million yuan in cash.

Gu Yifan didn't know what to say; his luck seemed to have exploded.

In the conference room.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting. Let me sign here. Where should I sign?"

Su Weiwei and the others were all drowsy.

Zhou Xuzhi was also uneasy and worried, but fortunately there were no problems now.

Lin Wanyu signed the contract with ease.

Once Gu Yifan transfers the money to the designated account, the acquisition will be successfully completed.

Oh, and there's also the contract with Zhou Xuzhi and the other three.

Gu Yifan persuaded them to continue managing the company's business, appointing Zhou Xuzhi as general manager, while the other four were also in management.

He promised that if the company grew in the future, Zhou Xuzhi would be the CEO, and also offered a tiered stock incentive contract and a 20-year long-term contract.

The purpose is obvious: to bind the four people, at least until Gu Yifan finds more suitable talent, and to keep them there.

Otherwise, the newly acquired company would become an empty shell.

For Zhou Xuzhi and his three companions, it seemed as if everything had changed, yet it also seemed as if nothing had changed.

They continued doing what they were doing, but now they had one more boss.

"Mr. Gu, about developing the website?" Zhou Xuzhi still remembered this matter.

However, his word no longer matters in the company.

“I can be temporarily seconded from the company to help with the website. Also, we can now find headhunters and recruit a large number of people.”

Gu Yifan witnessed Lin Wanyu signing the contract, and after thinking for a moment, he said...

Now that he has invested, the company no longer needs to operate on a small scale and accumulate capital slowly.

Rapid expansion and seizing untapped markets by any means necessary is the right approach.

The group talked for a long time about their future plans. Although Gu Yifan was not a professional, he had a vision that was twenty years ahead of his time.

With just a few words, Zhou Xuzhi and the other three were convinced and agreed to follow his method.

"The money should be transferred tomorrow. I'll let you know then. Also, where is the company's office located?"

Gu Yifan was a little embarrassed when he said it, after all, the company had already been purchased, but he still didn't know where the office would be located.

Zhou Xuzhi was even more embarrassed. "Well... the office is currently in our dormitory, and there's a storefront off campus where customer service and delivery drivers rest."

Gu Yifan was stunned. So he spent ten million to buy this?

But the main focus is on attracting talent, and with the framework already in place, things can gradually snowball.

Gu Yifan comforted himself and waved his hand dismissively.

"Let's find an office in this office area later to serve as the company's workplace for now, and we'll see how things develop later."

Zhou Xuzhi and the other three had no objections; on the contrary, their eyes lit up.

"The other finance, logistics, and operations are all fine, right?" Gu Yifan asked again, but judging from the awkward expressions of the four people, he knew that they were doing everything themselves.

"Let's hire people." Gu Yifan sighed. "Don't expand for the next few months until the website is up and running. Hire people, hire a lot of people."

“No problem. So what’s our company called? Boss?” Zhou Xuzhi nodded repeatedly, afraid that Gu Yifan would feel he was being taken advantage of, and quickly asked.

"Company name... Hmm, how about 'Hungry'? Simple and catchy."
