Chapter 222: Two Choices


Here? Who’s here? Fu Dongyi confusedly got up from his seat upon seeing Luo Wenlang standing up in excitement.


He was actually quite exhilarated to have been invited to the Nine Heavens Group again because as a businessman and Fu Wei’s a.s.sistant, he had a better idea of Nine Heavens than anyone in Fu Enterprise.


That was why he was both honored and uneasy upon being invited here by Luo Wenlang, and when he was invited here, Luo Wenlang didn’t even speak to him much, only telling him to sit before flipping through his own doc.u.ments, as if he didn’t care that there was someone else in the room with him.


It was true that he didn’t need to do that in the first place because Fu Dongyi couldn’t understand what was written in the doc.u.ments anyway.


Looking towards the door, Fu Dongyi saw someone walk in through the door in a beige coat while scrolling through her phone, and she only looked up from her phone and put it away after she stepped into the room.


“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Fu,” Gu Xiqiao greeted, holding out a hand towards him.


Fu Dongyi stared at those porcelain fingers for a while as he listened to Luo Wenlang introduce the girl in front of him, before he robotically reached towards her and shook her hand. “h.e.l.lo, Miss Gu.”


He knew who Gu Xiqiao was, of course, but wasn’t she just an actress? Why was she here?


Even though he had a lot of questions to ask, he knew better than to pester the girl and he kept his mouth shut.


“Mr. Fu,” Gu Xiqiao sat down on the sofa and gestured for him to do the same, before continuing: “The reason I have you here today is to offer you a proposition.”


“What is it?” Fu Dongyi asked curiously.


Gu Xiqiao took out a stack of papers and handed it to Luo Wenlang, before looking straight at Fu Dongyi’s eyes. “I want you to take over the Fu family.”


“Take over the Fu family?” Fu Dongyi immediately bounced up from the sofa. “No, that won’t do! The Fu family belongs to Miss, and I don’t have the ability and talent to do so!”


“Talent won’t be a problem. As long as you agree, we’ll make it so that Fu Xuejun wouldn’t even be able to be a match for you in no time!” Gu Xiqiao picked up the cup of tea that the secretary sent in before sipping on it slowly and smiling at Fu Dongyi.


They could develop him to the point where even Fu Xuejun wouldn’t be able to win against him? Were they joking?


At this point, Fu Dongyi felt that Gu Xiqiao was making fun at his expense. He was very self-aware and knew exactly how much he was worth, which was why he never even had the thought of taking charge of the Fu family, even when Fu Wei seemed to have the intent of having him do so.


Fu Dongyi looked at Gu Xiqiao with a bitter smile. “Miss Gu, please don’t make fun of me. I know that I can’t even hold a candle to Miss Fu, and the Fu family is going to collapse once it comes into my hands…”


“You have two choices. The first is that you take over the Fu family, and the second, is to watch as I make the entire Fu family disappear from the Imperial Capital.” Gu Xiqiao set down her teacup and looked at Fu Dongyi with a gentle smile, but the words she uttered were bone-chilling. “Which one do you choose?”


Her proposition made Fu Dongyi pale considerably. He didn’t know Gu Xiqiao’s position in the company, but judging from the way Luo Wenlang smiled and nodded at him when he glanced at him, he could tell that Gu Xiqiao could do so if she wished.


There wasn’t a single company or enterprise that wasn’t afraid of Nine Heavens, but thankfully for them, the group had set their sights abroad and didn’t have any intention of expanding their influence in the Imperial Capital. That being said, if Nine Heavens wanted Fu Enterprise gone, they would definitely be able to do so.


“Miss Gu, I just want to know why you’re asking this of me…” Fu Dongyi croaked.


“Well, the reason is simple.” Gu Xiqiao squinted slightly, before huffing coldly. “Fu Xuejun infuriated me!”


As soon as she said this, Fu Dongyi didn’t know what to say in response. Judging from the contents of the argument between Fu Xuejun and Fu Wei that day, that girl had definitely tried some low tricks on Gu Xiqiao. That was because Fu Xuejun looked down on Gu Xiqiao completely, and if she knew that Gu Xiqiao had so much influence over Nine Heavens, she wouldn’t even dare to do so.


“I-I have to discuss this with Mr. Fu when I return…” Fu Dongyi compromised.


“Of course.” Gu Xiqiao stood up and smiled amiably. “Come back here tomorrow, and I’ll turn you into a genius that can put Fu Xuejun to shame.”


“I will.” Fu Dongyi nodded and replied, but he didn’t believe that the mysterious girl in front of him could change his entire brain structure and lack of born talent.


Gu Xiqiao left after saying everything that she needed to, while Luo Wenlang sat there and flipped through the plans that Gu Xiqiao gave him before reaching over and patting Fu Dongyi’s shoulder, his gaze betraying a hint of jealousy. “Now that you’ve gotten the attention of Boss Gu, you’re going to become the object of jealousy in our company.”


Luo Wenlang didn’t know why Gu Xiqiao was so benevolent towards Fu Enterprise.


Wait…Boss Gu?


Fu Dongyi felt as if he was hallucinating as he looked at Luo Wenlang dumbfoundedly. “Y-You- She- Boss- What?”


“You heard me.” Luo Wenlang smiled and confirmed his suspicions—There wouldn’t be any use of keeping it from him in the future given that he was going to go through Gu Xiqiao’s devil training anyway. “Don’t think that she’s joking, she really has plans to make a genius out of you. See you at nine tomorrow, and I hope that you bring good news with you.”


Luo Wenlang left, leaving Fu Dongyi standing there, sh.e.l.l-shocked.


Fu Dongyi thought of the girl that was even younger than he was, his lips twitching a few times as he trembled.


What did he say?! Gu Xiqiao was the boss of the Nine Heavens Group? A girl that was younger than he was??


How was that possible?!


Back when he first got wind of Nine Heavens, he had already had an admiration and deep respect for the founder of the company, but that went for most of the people in their industry.


Some of the large cases involving Nine Heavens Group had even been turned into teaching material by some universities as a textbook example of winning against a stronger opponent.


One of the most renowned and experienced people in their circle once said that the person behind Nine Heavens Group could be compared as an intelligent monster, to the point where the entire commercial world combined couldn’t even win against them.


In other words, if you had even had two brain cells, you would know not to trifle with this megalodon that could crunch you up in one bite and then some, and the Bai family was an example of what happened when someone did.


That being said, the founder and boss of the company were completely shrouded in mystery because they had never shown themselves in public, and only the higher-ups in the company had. Many people have guessed what sort of person was the mastermind behind the scenes, but no one would have known that the truth was so astonis.h.i.+ng!


A girl that was not even twenty years old yet!


Fu Dongyi was immediately reminded of Fu Xuejun that was renowned overseas for being an unparalleled genius with many achievements, but after comparing her with Gu Xiqiao, she was nothing worth noting.


One was still resting on her laurels, while the other had already created a commercial kingdom.


Could there be a crueler comparison?


Fu Dongyi was so shaken by this news that he walked out of the company doors in a half-conscious state, only somewhat realizing that he was outside when a particularly cool gust of wind blew onto him.


After Gu Xiqiao strolled around the entire company, she came back to the Finance Department led by Luo Wenlang.


Luo Wenlang suddenly remembered something. “Do you think we should contact the Wu family about the matters with Baixing Village?”


“No need, at least not for now.” Gu Xiqiao replied, flipping through doc.u.ments as she did.


“Alright. Also, I’ve read this plan of yours, but I’m not sure if it will be effective in a short period of time.” Luo Wenlang waved around the piece of paper with Fu Dongyi’s future plans on it.


“I have my ways.” Gu Xiqiao reached up and pat his shoulder. “Perhaps he won’t be practicing in Nine Heavens when he does come.”


Luo Wenlang blinked dumbly. “Not here?” Then where?


“You’ll see.” Gu Xiqiao smiled mysteriously, before looking at her phone that showed that it was already half-past twelve. “Well, it’s time for me to take my leave.”


One minute after Gu Xiqiao left, Yu Ning came barging in.


Luo Wenlang looked at him with pity, before jeering lightheartedly, “She’s already given up on your Engineering Department, I see.”


Yu Nine returned without a single word.


A few minutes later, Luo Wenlang sat at his desktop and was browsing through his doc.u.ments before a bunch of non-dismissible advertis.e.m.e.nt banners popped up on his screen, and it was as if his computer had been infected with a virus.


Even if he thought with his toe, he knew that this was one of Yu Ning’s schemes!


Meanwhile, the secretary that had come to his office to give him some papers had already been used to the scene of the two being loving(sworn) comrades(enemies).


╮(╯▽╰)╭


Gu Xiqiao didn’t go to the studio where Divergent Paths was being filmed but instead teleported to the border of the ancient martial arts world using a talisman.


Yi Bing and Yi Tiao had already left together with Jiang Shuxuan, and the only one left standing guard was Yi Tong.


“Miss Gu.” Yi Tong bowed respectfully.


Not only was she his boss’s precious treasure, but she also had the strength and ability to be worthy of this respect.


“h.e.l.lo, Mr. Yi Tong.” Gu Xiqiao smiled politely. “Brother Jiang said that this cave is mine from now on.”


Yi Tong bowed. “According to the rules of the ancient martial arts world, it is, yes.”


This cave had been conquered by Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan, but Yi Tong guessed that Gu Xiqiao wore the shoes in their relations.h.i.+p, so it wouldn’t do him any wrong to say so!


“Ah, then I can use it right?” Gu Xiqiao looked into the cave as she rubbed her chin thoughtfully. If her math was right, there was a one to seven ratio of the speed of time flow inside and outside the cave, so it was truly a treasure if it was utilized well!


“That won’t do, Miss Gu! The miasma in the cave is too thick, and no one can stay in there for too long!” If anything happened to Gu Xiqiao, he’d probably be skinned alive by Boss!


“It’s alright, I can deal with it.” Gu Xiqiao waved towards the few people at the site. “Make way.”


Yi Tong remembered Gu Xiqiao’s strength, and so he only nodded and led Jiu Tong and the others away.


Gu Xiqiao: “Lil’ System, can the inventory hold this cybers.p.a.ce?”


[The inventory won’t be able to do that because it’s too low-grade, but the Virtual Arena could!] The system spirit knew what Gu Xiqiao was planning, and was doing precise calculations. [The cybers.p.a.ce that this cave holds is pretty low-grade, so you could absorb it into the Virtual Arena without any problems. All you have to do is cover the entire cave with your mental power, and I’ll handle everything else.]


“Alright.” Gu Xiqiao nodded. She had been keeping an eye out for this cave for a long while now, but she didn’t have enough mental power in the past.


Since the last time she pa.s.sed out, her mental power had a drastic increase, and it was because of that that she was pa.s.sed out for an entire week.


Suddenly, a strong and terrifying surge of mental power burst out in front of the cave, the mental power so thick and strong that it seemed to warp s.p.a.ce itself while the others looked on in astonishment. “Y-Yi Tong is her mental power already in the perfect stage..?”


“Yes.” Yi Tong looked at Gu Xiqiao, not able to peel his gaze away from the sight. “And she’s stronger than the last time we met.”


Jiang Shuxuan had already been enough of a genius for them, and now there was someone that was on par and seemed to even be more of a monstrous genius…How could they regular plebeians live??


“How many days has it been?” Jiu Tong asked. “How old was she, again?”


Yi Ren replied with a stiff tone, “She’s in her first year of university…”


“The ranking battles are coming up soon, aren’t they?” Wu Tong asked. “What do you guys think would happen then?”


“I don’t feel like my imagination would do it justice.” Yi Ren replied expressionlessly.


All of a sudden, the entire cave disappeared with a loud, thundering rumble.


Everyone looked on at this mystical scene with their jaws hanging wide open. What happened to the cave?? Where did it go??


Gu Xiqiao walked over and nodded at them, before disappearing completely.


The next second, she blinked into existence at the training grounds where Yao Jiamu was.


Everyone was still in the middle of training, while Xixi continued to bully Yin Shaoyuan with its fire breath.


All of a sudden, a gust of wind blew in the arena, and a silhouette dropped down from the sky.


Everyone stopped what they were doing in an instant as they looked at this scene, before rubbing their eyes again and again. Why was she still there?


Gu Xiqiao stood up, before waving towards them awkwardly. “Good afternoon, everyone.”


Could Lil’ System tell her why her coordinates were so off?!
