"ah"

Gu Jia was somewhat surprised. ✌♖ 6900x.ⓒ𝓞𝓜 ✌🐟

She clearly hadn't expected Li Haoyu to give that answer.

"Are you kidding me?"

Gu Jia looked like she had seen a ghost.

"Want to book a room? Are you looking for a 'quid pro quo' arrangement?"

A flight attendant serving nearby overheard their conversation.

The flight attendant's eyes widened in surprise, and she couldn't help but sneak closer to Gu Jia and Li Haoyu's seats.

After all, a love of gossip is human nature.

If she hears any juicy gossip, she can spill the beans in the group chat later. However, Li Haoyu also noticed the flight attendant next to him, who seemed eager to join in.

He asked the flight attendant to bring him a blanket.

Li Haoyu also gave the flight attendant a meaningful look.

Now she knew that Li Haoyu had seen through her little scheme.

It's such a pity; the conversation that followed was bound to be explosive.

The passengers in first class were no ordinary people, so she could only nod steadily and leave. If she didn't leave, Li Haoyu might complain about her.

After all, these wealthy people value their privacy highly.

"What's wrong? Is it not allowed?"

Li Haoyu was talking to Gu Jia.

He adjusted Gu Jia's chair to make her more comfortable. 🐍😂 ➅➈şн𝓤𝔵.ᑕ𝕠м 🍮🎁

"I'm an orphan, and you won't have to worry about mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships if you marry into the family. With such excellent terms, aren't you tempted?"

Li Haoyu countered with a question, "Plus, with my physique and looks, dating you wouldn't be a bad deal for you, would it?"

Gu Jia wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that...

Li Haoyu is indeed a tall, rich, and handsome man. If you didn't have to worry about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it would sound quite appealing.

No, how could I possibly want to go there?

Gu Jia said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't you say that to every girl?"

Li Haoyu shook his head and replied seriously, "It's really not like that. If I wanted to pursue a girl, I wouldn't need to say this much. I might not even need to say anything, and she would already be lying down."

Gu Jia couldn't help but say, "So, you're just saying this to me because you want to find a playmate?"

She paused for a moment, then said with certainty, "I feel like you're just playing around. Actually, I think you should think about it carefully."

"It's like when you guys are playing a game and the power suddenly goes out, and the computer just shuts down. You'd be really angry then, sometimes even slamming your fist on the table and smashing the keyboard."

At the end, Gu Jia made a special emphasis on it.

Even rabbits don't eat the grass near their burrows!

Li Haoyu understood. In short, Gu Jia meant that Li Haoyu was too ruthless, not even sparing his own secretary.

2k

What a scumbag! I've never seen such a scumbag!

Gu Jia thought that if she said that, Li Haoyu would back down, or at least sulk for a while.

Unexpectedly, Li Haoyu didn't take it seriously.

Li Haoyu even went so far as to discuss, "Actually, most of what you just said isn't a big problem. Let me give you a little more background information; what you just described should be called the Zeigarnik effect."

"Simply put, you easily forget things that are successfully completed, but you always remember or feel resentful about things that were stopped halfway, not completed, or did not reach their goal."

Li Haoyu began to take the initiative.

He even started discussing it with Gu Jia.

"It's actually the same principle as when you girls see a piece of clothing in a shopping mall and you like it. But at the time, you think the price is a bit high, and in the end you don't buy it."

"After you leave the mall, you'll lose your appetite and keep thinking about that dress." Even if the dress wasn't that great, you'll still feel it's a regretful thing.

"Many people think, 'It's just a piece of clothing, why are you so attached to it and can't let it go?' But they don't understand this principle."

Gu Jia couldn't help but tilt her head and say, "Didn't you understand what I said? This isn't academic research. Did you even understand what I meant?"

Li Haoyu nodded. "Of course I understand."

Gu Jia noticed Li Haoyu's confident tone.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Haoyu said in a light tone, "I know you're wondering about the second half of the sentence, right? Actually, there's a problem with the theory that 'a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow'."

He looked calmly at Gu Jia and said, "Whether a rabbit burrows near the edge or not shouldn't matter much. What's more important is whether it eats grass or how tender the grass is, right?"

This time, Gu Jia really couldn't hold back anymore and completely broke down.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Gu Jia was both embarrassed and anxious. "I'm talking to you seriously, can you stop with the nonsense!"

Li Haoyu burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Then continue, I promise I won't interrupt you again."

He kept talking, but he didn't stop for a moment.

Now Li Haoyu started adjusting the angle of his seat.

Gu Jia doesn't have time to worry about these things now.

She took a deep breath and slowly said, "In the past, I was very confident in my abilities. For example, when I first met Mrs. Wang, I actually looked down on her."

"I was even a little indignant. How could a shallow woman like Mrs. Wang, who couldn't even distinguish between Monet and Van Gogh, afford a Monet painting?"

"Why should they? Because they're rich!"

Li Haoyu still failed to keep his promise.

He still interrupted abruptly with a comment.

After listening, Gu Jia nodded and said, "Indeed, when I think back on it, Mrs. Wang was actually the one who treated me the best among the wives in the circle."

"But I didn't realize it at the time, and I never took Mrs. Wang seriously. As a result, I suffered the biggest setback of my life later when I was working at the tea factory."

Even after we parted ways, Mrs. Wang still subtly hinted at the tea factory matter to me. Unfortunately, I was too hasty at the time and didn't think it through.

Li Haoyu never understood why it was so difficult for Gu Jia to investigate a tea factory, given her abilities.

What are the sales channels? What is the value of the land and factory buildings? Are there any mortgages or outstanding loans? How many workers are there? What is the annual output, annual fixed expenses, and annual profit margin?

Aren't these the most basic things to do when acquiring a company?

What Li Haoyu found even more absurd was that Gu Jia had clearly accumulated a lot of experience at the fireworks factory. Yet, before buying the factory, she hadn't even conducted the most basic background check.

Actually, if she thought about it for a moment, she could perform at her usual level.

Pretend to go shopping for some tea, and casually inquire about the sales channels. Then go to the sales point to ask about the sales volume and verify the authenticity of the sales channels.

She can tell whether someone is setting a trap for her.

It's outrageous!
