Hearing Gu Chenan's answer, Wang Youcai was immediately startled.
If Gu Chenan said his family didn't know about this, didn't that mean he had kept it a secret from them?
Why would he keep it secret?
It must be because Gu Chenan wanted to prove his own abilities and make a big splash!
That being the case, Gu Chenan's background must be extraordinary!
Otherwise, why would he be so tight-lipped about it to his family?
Of course, this was just Wang Youcai's own imaginative speculation. He always felt that Gu Chenan wasn't an ordinary person.
But he had no concrete evidence, so he could only make some reasonable (far-fetched) deductions based on these minor details.
"Mr. Wang, you can give me a reasonable price. If it works, we can find a lawyer to draft the contract right now," Gu Chenan urged.
Gu Chenan wasn't one to spend money frivolously. The reason he didn't seek a third-party valuation for Caiying was simple.
He couldn't be bothered.
Something that could be done in two or three days would take several months if he brought in a third party for valuation.
He could handle keeping a low profile for a few days, but several months would truly suffocate him.
Wang Youcai hesitated for a moment, his brows slightly furrowed.
He really couldn't figure out Gu Chenan's background now.
If you said his background was formidable, his behavior seemed more like that of a nouveau riche playboy.
If you said he was nouveau riche, the pressure he exuded in his speech wasn't fake.
But all in all, Gu Chenan was certainly no ordinary person.
Wang Youcai pursed his lips and held up five fingers: "Fifty million. If Mr. Gu agrees, I'll have someone draft the contract right away."
"Fifty million, huh..." Gu Chenan stroked his chin. "It's not expensive."
"Huh?" Wang Youcai was completely bewildered.
This isn't expensive?
Don't I know my own company? Including the production line, it's worth at most thirty-something million. I straight up asked for fifty million, and you don't think it's unreasonable?
Or is it that he has no concept of money?
Damn, if that's really the case, this is big!
What kind of person has no concept of fifty million?
He had thought that after he proposed this price, Gu Chenan would definitely haggle, but who would have thought Gu Chenan was ready to agree directly.
This made Wang Youcai think Gu Chenan was even more extraordinary.
If he didn't have hundreds of millions in cash flow, how could he easily produce fifty million?
Suddenly, Wang Youcai felt something was amiss.
If Gu Chenan's background was extraordinary, then his own sky-high pricing was infinitely close to courting death.
Gu Chenan didn't know how much the company was worth now, but what if after he took over the company, he found out it wasn't worth this price? The consequences would be unthinkable!
"Mr. Gu, I misspoke," Wang Youcai hurriedly said. "There's a problem with the price."
Gu Chenan frowned, his expression displeased.
Damn it, did he see that I agreed so readily and decided to ask for an astronomical price?
"Oh? What does Mr. Wang mean?" Gu Chenan narrowed his eyes, preparing for Wang Youcai's price increase.
Unexpectedly, Wang Youcai rubbed his hands and said, "Mr. Gu, actually my company is worth at most thirty-five million..."
Huh?
Now it was Gu Chenan's turn to be confused.
What's going on?
He'd seen sellers raise prices at the last minute, but never seen a seller lower the price at the last minute.
"Mr. Wang, you're..."
"Mr. Gu, are you satisfied with this price?" Wang Youcai swallowed and asked.
Spending less money was certainly a good thing, Gu Chenan had no reason to refuse.
"Of course I'm satisfied," he nodded.
"Great!" Wang Youcai stood up. "I'll have someone draft the contract right away!"
"Once the contract is signed, Mr. Gu will be the owner of Caiying!"
...
On the black and white contract, Gu Chenan pressed his red fingerprint.
The suit-clad lawyer collected the contract and said to Wang Youcai and Gu Chenan, "The share transfer agreement has been completed. Mr. Gu, from now on you are the owner of Caiying."
"Mr. Gu, I'll inform all employees about this today. We'll need to trouble you to come and hold a meeting for everyone tomorrow," Wang Youcai said with a smile.
"No problem."
After chatting with Wang Youcai for a while, Gu Chenan drove away from Caiying.
As soon as Gu Chenan left, Caiying Company announced this news.
Immediately, everyone was full of speculation.
Who was this sucker who bought this dying company?
Was there something wrong with that person's brain?
Everyone was discussing and guessing who this mysterious person was and the purpose of buying this company.
Only a receptionist was utterly shocked.
After hearing this news, she was stunned for several seconds.
"What?! That person really bought our company?"
"No, no, he looked only in his twenties?"
...
Back at the rented apartment.
"Ms. Su, I've bought back your company," Gu Chenan said, covering his face with the contract as he entered the bedroom.
If Su Qianmo had official residency in this world, Gu Chenan would definitely have bought this company in Su Qianmo's name.
"Really? So fast?" Su Qianmo was surprised.
Buying a company isn't like going to the market to buy vegetables. You went out for a morning and it's done?
"Of course," Gu Chenan coughed lightly and said seriously, "From today on, in my capacity as the owner of Caiying Company, I appoint you as the company's CEO, with full authority!"
Su Qianmo was amused by Gu Chenan's manner. She covered her mouth and laughed, her eyes curving into crescents, "Yes, sir, boss."
Ding dong~
Just then, Gu Chenan's phone rang.
He picked it up and saw it was another message from the classmates' group chat.
"@Gu Chenan, Old Gu, be there on time this afternoon, okay."
Today was the day Gu Chenan had agreed to meet up with his high school classmates.
"Alright, I'll definitely be there," Gu Chenan replied.
After sending the message, Gu Chenan turned back to look at Su Qianmo, who was carefully examining the contract.
"Qianmo."
"Hmm?" Su Qianmo looked up. "What is it?"
"I need to go out for a while later."
"Huh?"
Su Qianmo deflated like a balloon, flopping back on the bed with a sulky bounce.
"You just got back and you're going out again. What are you up to!"
Gu Chenan also felt a bit guilty about leaving Su Qianmo alone at home. He scratched the back of his head and said, "It's a class reunion. I'm going to network with some classmates who might be useful."
"We might have to deal with some of them for our company in the future."
"Hmph." Su Qianmo pouted and turned her head to the side.
"Where are you meeting them? Will you still love me when you come back?"
Hearing these endearing words and seeing Su Qianmo's pouting expression, Gu Chenan couldn't help but chuckle.
"That look makes me want to pinch your cheeks and push you down right away."
Su Qianmo glared at Gu Chenan.
"Answer my question."
Gu Chenan reached out to undo the drawstring of his casual pants, pouncing towards Su Qianmo: "Not being obedient will result in punishment."
"Ah!" Su Qianmo let out a sharp cry, trying hard to push Gu Chenan away.
But at this moment, Gu Chenan was like a fierce wolf crouching over a piece of fresh meat, ravishing her ravenously.
