Chapter 544: Chapter 544 These People Are Too Gullible

"By the way, I’m curious, Mr. Sun, where have you been making your fortune lately?" Guo Gongcheng asked casually.

"Ah? Well, this..." Sun Jun was ashamed and at a loss for words.

Gu Ruirui snorted with contempt, "Him? He has been a mere clerk for so many years since graduation. Don’t even mention becoming rich, I fear he won’t even be able to solve his basic needs in a few years!"

The more she compared, the more disgusted Gu Ruirui became with her boyfriend.

Sun Jun just gave a forced laugh, unable to lift his head.

Guo Gongcheng took a drag on his cigarette, a look of giving sagely advice, "No worries, everything has a process. Sometimes people just lack an opportunity."

"How about this, when the project at Jinxiu City is negotiated, Brother Sun can come and help out at my place."

"I’ll pay you the salary of a project manager, what do you think?"

"Project Manager?!" Sun Jun’s eyes shone with excitement.

A project manager at Jinxiu City wouldn’t that be at least a million yuan a year?!

"Brother Guo, you... are you serious?"

Guo Gongcheng looked confident, "Of course. Since you’re a friend of Zhong Ling, you’re also my friend. Helping you is only natural!"

Sun Jun nodded his head excitedly, "Thank you, Brother Guo, thank you! Come, I’ll toast to you!"

A job with an annual salary of a million yuan fell into his lap just like that; Sun Jun felt as if he were dreaming.

"It’s a mere trifle, no need to be so polite!"

Guo Gongcheng seemed calm and nonchalant on the surface but inside he was scornfully laughing at them. These people were too easy to deceive. Just throw them a bone or promise some big rewards, and they overflowed with gratitude, it was as if they had no brains at all.

What Jinxiu City, what project manager, when the acquisition falls through, I can easily gloss over it, can’t I?

A bunch of fools!

While drinking with Sun Jun, Guo Gongcheng’s gaze occasionally scanned over Gu Ruirui’s figure.

This girl before him, whether in looks or figure, was significantly better than Zhong Ling, and it was clear from her eyes that she admired him.

Guo Gongcheng, a master of deception, having wandered the world for many years, had a very accurate grasp of people’s psyche.

He knew girls like Gu Ruirui inside out.

Guo Gongcheng was completely confident that, if he was willing, it wouldn’t take long to have Gu Ruirui in his pocket!

In fact, Guo Gongcheng’s real target wasn’t just Gu Ruirui.

Among the three girls, the most outstanding one was naturally Han Jingting.

Be it in looks or presence, Miss Han was streets ahead of Zhong Ling and Gu Ruirui.

Accurately speaking, Zhong Ling and Gu Ruirui had no comparison with her at all!

This Miss Han was truly a goddess.

But Guo Gongcheng also knew very clearly that her aura was very strong, her standards very high, and she definitely couldn’t be swayed by just a few words.

So, Guo Gongcheng didn’t dare to consider making a move on her just yet.

But that didn’t stop him from showing off in front of her.

"Sun Jun, you’re quite decent, at least much more polite than certain people!"

"Some people, eh, my boyfriend kindly offers help, and they act like they’ve never seen kindness before. Such people, they deserve to accomplish nothing in life!"

When Guo Gongcheng said this, his gaze swept meaningfully towards Chen Xuan, clearly implying something.

Sun Jun also caught the implication in Guo Gongcheng’s words and immediately echoed, "Chen Xuan, this is where you’re wrong. Although we might not have any great abilities, we should be grateful when others are willing to help us!"

"If you don’t even understand gratitude, how are you going to get by in society in the future? Who would be willing to help you then?"

Sun Jun looked very righteous.

He had just tasted the big pie drawn by Guo Gongcheng, and now he stood by Guo Gongcheng’s side, eager to put on a good show in front of him.

Chen Xuan offered up a wry smile.

He hadn’t planned on getting involved with Guo Gongcheng’s nonsensical affairs, but as the saying goes: "The tree desires quiet, yet the wind keeps blowing."

Since Guo Gongcheng had targeted him again, Chen Xuan decided he wasn’t going to be polite either.

"President Guo, you just said you plan to acquire the Jinxiu City project, didn’t you?"

Guo Gongcheng answered proudly, "That’s right, is there a problem?"

Chen Xuan replied with a faint smile, "No problem, I just want to ask if you know the name of the current owner of the Jinxiu City project?"

Before Guo Gongcheng could respond, Sun Jun sneered, "Chen Xuan, the question you’re asking has a problem. Didn’t Brother Guo already tell you? He’s in the process of acquiring Jinxiu City. How could he not know who the owner is?"

In Sun Jun’s view, Chen Xuan’s question was utterly foolish.

Zhong Ling’s face soured, "Chen Xuan, what do you mean by that? Are you still doubting that Gongcheng is lying? What’s wrong with you? Can’t you stand to see others do well?"

Han Jingting quickly interjected to mediate, "Zhong Ling, don’t get agitated. Chen Xuan was just asking casually, he didn’t mean anything else by it."

"Is he just asking casually? I think he’s up to no good!" Zhong Ling was still angry.

Chen Xuan remained calm, "If your boyfriend is really genuine, then he definitely wouldn’t be afraid of a few more questions from me. The problem is if he’s only pretending to be something he’s not!"

Guo Gongcheng laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, "Pretending to be something he’s not? That’s ludicrous."

"Isn’t it about the owner of Jinxiu City? I’ll tell you now, the owner of Jinxiu City is named Dong Jianke, the chairman of Jianke Real Estate!"

"How about that, am I right?"

As a qualified liar, Dong Jianke naturally came prepared.

Since he had to lie about Jinxiu City, he had done his homework right from the start.

No sooner had Guo Gongcheng finished speaking than Sun Jun immediately chimed in, "That’s right, Jinxiu City is indeed developed by Jianke Real Estate, I’ve heard about this before."

Zhong Ling also started to look smug, "So, Chen Xuan, what else do you have to say now?"

Chen Xuan chuckled lightly, "It seems you’ve done quite a bit of homework. You’re not wrong, Jinxiu City was indeed owned by Jianke Real Estate, and the owner was indeed Dong Jianke."

"However, that was a month ago. Jinxiu City has long since been sold by Dong Jianke to someone else."

"Aren’t you interested in acquiring the Jinxiu City project? Surely you must know this already, right?"

Sun Jun and Zhong Ling were both taken aback; they hadn’t heard this piece of news.

Guo Gongcheng was momentarily stunned, then quickly slapped his forehead, "Look at my memory, I’ve been dealing with so many projects lately, I’ve almost gotten confused."

"You’re right, Jinxiu City was indeed sold a month ago."

"The current owner of Jinxiu City is named... Xu Dong! Yes, that’s the name!"

At this, Chen Xuan burst into laughter.

Indeed, a liar will eventually expose themselves!
