Chapter 915 The ultimate dog licker
In fact, Zhan Xiang didn't want to sell the house to Suning from the bottom of his heart, because he bought that house in the first place just to pursue Gu Qingyu, so this three-bedroom house next to Gu's house was of great significance to Zhan Xiang.

If someone else had offered to buy this house from him, Zhan Xiang would have refused without hesitation. However, Suning was the twin brother of Zhan Xiang's dream lover, so he naturally couldn't say no.

Even at this time, Zhan Xiang was ready to give the house away for free. After all, he valued Gu Qingyu and the Gu family's acceptance of him more. Perhaps this is the unique quality of an ultimate bootlicker.

"Gu Lei, since you want this house so much, I can agree to sell it to you, and there is no need to rush you to give me the payment." After all, he has been pursuing Gu Qingyu for so many years, and he knows a little about the situation of the Gu family.

"No need! I just happen to have this money in my hand, you don't need to worry too much about me." At this time, Su Ning shook his head and rejected Zhan Xiang's kindness. There was really no need for him to owe this favor.

"Ah? Gu Lei, you are the financial officer of your company, could it be..." Seeing that Suning rejected his kindness without hesitation, Zhan Xiang, who thought he knew Suning's situation, began to guess fearfully.

"Zhan Xiang, we have known each other for so long. Do you think I am that kind of bold and reckless person?" Su Ning certainly heard Zhan Xiang questioning his embezzlement of the company's funds. He knew that the finance department was responsible for the management and turnover of the company's funds.

"Huh? That's true."

"To be honest with you! I started investing in stocks in 2020, and I was very lucky to invest in several medical technology stocks, including the nuclear company that specializes in nucleic acid monitoring. The recent listing of the nuclear company naturally made me a lot of money."

"Is this true?" Although Suning's explanation was flawless, Zhan Xiang still had some doubts based on his understanding of Suning.

"Really? What good would it do me to lie to you?"

"Gu Lei, no wonder you're so extravagant as to eat steak today. It seems you've become a nouveau riche now."

"Haha, I wouldn't call myself a nouveau riche. This title is more suitable for you."

"..."

Then Suning made an appointment with Zhanxiang to meet at the housing management office in HP District, but Suning turned around and left the western restaurant and went back to the company to ask for leave. This was just the right time to hand in the financial statements completed in the morning. Presumably, the department manager would give him this face.

After Suning left the western restaurant first, Zhan Xiang picked up his coffee and drank it slowly. But just as he was about to get up and leave the western restaurant, he saw the waiter walking straight towards him.

"Sir, your total consumption is 1,100 yuan." The waiter immediately gave Zhan Xiang a bill, and the price quoted surprised Zhan Xiang, a nouveau riche.

"What? I just drank a cup of coffee, but it cost more than 1,100 yuan?" As expected, the stunned Zhan Xiang raised his doubts, and suddenly thought that this was a black shop that was ripping people off.

"Huh? Sir, your friend also ordered a sirloin, a vegetable salad, and a glass of orange juice."

"Hmph! My hateful future brother-in-law is indeed a typical Shanghainese boy. He has started to plot against his future brother-in-law so quickly." At this time, Zhan Xiang realized that he was being ripped off by Suning, but he felt a little happy instead. After all, the mentality of a bootlicker is different from that of ordinary people.

After paying for the meal, Zhan Xiang happily left the western restaurant, then went to the parking lot and drove away in his luxury car. He felt very honored to be ripped off by Suning at this time, and inexplicably thought that he was one step closer to pursuing Gu Qingyu.

Su Ning, who had already returned to the company, took the financial report to the manager's office and handed it to the manager in front of him. "Manager Xu, this is the quarterly financial report I prepared. Please take a look at it first."

"Oh? So soon? The financial statements seemed to have been handed over to you just the day before yesterday?" Manager Xu from the company's finance department took the report in surprise, but did not open it for review immediately.

"Haha, Manager Xu, it's mainly because I have some personal matters this afternoon and want to take half a day off, so I rushed out this report as quickly as possible."

"Gu Lei, is half a day's leave enough? How about I approve two days for you?" In fact, Manager Xu was still very satisfied with Suning's attitude today. You know, Suning used to be a blockhead.

The reason why they agreed to let Su Ning work in this company was mainly because of Gu Qingyu's face. Naturally, the company would not have too high expectations of Su Ning, but Suning's performance still gave everyone in the company a headache. It felt like Su Ning was a child who would never grow up.

"No need! It's just a small matter at home. Half a day is more than enough."

"Okay then! I'll keep the financial statements for now. If there's anything wrong, we can discuss it when you return from leave."

"Thank you, Manager Xu! When you have time, I will ask my sister Gu Qingyu to come out, and we can sit down and have a drink together." Su Ning naturally knew whose strength he relied on, and then he took the initiative to propose to return the favor.

"Great! How about the day after tomorrow? I heard that a nice bar has opened on the Bund." As the financial manager of a downstream company of Gu Qingyu's company, he naturally wanted to get closer to Gu Qingyu of the upstream company.

"No problem! Let's go to the Bund for drinks the day after tomorrow."

"Haha, then we have a deal." Manager Xu couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised when he saw Gu Lei who suddenly came to his senses.

Suning is not the idiot Gu Lei of the past. He is naturally familiar with the ways of the world and catering to people's preferences is a skill that Suning has mastered long ago. Sure enough, he soon became popular in the company.

In addition, Suning has a strong affinity and is not too keen on promotion within the company. Naturally, he quickly became friends with his colleagues. He felt that the previous Gu Lei was a fool who was hopeless.

……

Then Su Ning left his company directly, took a taxi back home to get all his documents, and then went to the Housing Management Office under the confused gaze of Father Gu and Grandma Gu. As expected, when he arrived at the door, he saw Zhan Xiang waiting for him.

In fact, Su Ning also thought that Zhan Xiang in front of her was a rare good man. If Gu Qingyu really married Zhan Xiang, she would be spoiled like a little princess every day. Unfortunately, Gu Qingyu's head was always filled with Shi Yuan's shit, and she only regarded Zhan Xiang as a spare tire and a bootlicker.

"Brother Xiang, you came so quickly?" Seeing Zhan Xiang being so decisive and powerful, Suning couldn't help but change his name to a more intimate one.

"Haha, it will be less stressful if the transfer procedures are completed earlier." As expected, Zhan Xiang's eyes almost squinted with joy when he heard Suning's friendly address.

"Brother Xiang, here are two copies of the transaction contract, and a check for 13 million from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. If there is no problem, please sign the contract first." Suning knew the importance of a formal contract to the transaction. He immediately took out the house purchase contract from his bag and directly took out a check for 13 million.

"This..." Zhan Xiang, the upstart, was also a little shocked. He realized that he had underestimated Suning in the past. After reading the contract carefully, he said, "No problem, I'll sign it now."

"Brother Xiang, you still need to personally take care of the matter with that resident."

"Don't worry! This will make things much simpler. If they really continue to refuse to leave, I'll call the police or contact the neighborhood committee. After all, they still owe me a year's rent."

"Actually, you should have done this a long time ago. Blindly compromising will only hurt yourself and others, and will also make Gu Qingyu think you are too weak." "Ah? Will Qingyu see me like this?" Hearing that Gu Qingyu might be disgusted by his weakness, Zhan Xiang was really angry at this time.

"What do you think?" Su Ning looked at Zhan Xiang instead of answering. He was a favored child of heaven, but he chose to be a lowly bootlicker.

"..."

"Brother Xiang, since you own so many properties, why don't you open a real estate agency and hire employees to take care of your properties. This way you don't have to deal with difficult tenants yourself."

"Hey! I've thought about this before, but it feels so good every time I go to collect rent, so I can't stop."

"Huh? Your hobby is quite peculiar."

Then Suning and Zhan Xiang went to the Housing Management Office to handle the property transfer, and Suning only added Xiao Lao Hu's name to the property title, which was an explanation to his adopted son. As for Feng Xiaoqin, who was about to become a house slave, he also made arrangements.

……

At this time, Feng Xiaoqin also heard Suning's ultimatum from her sister Feng Qianqian, but she didn't care because she thought she had already dominated Suning. Instead, she thought it was a bluff by Suning and the Gu family because they couldn't hold on any longer.

When Feng Xiaoqin thought about how she had worked hard in the Gu family for the past ten years and didn't even have a mother-in-law to help her, she naturally felt very aggrieved.

"Sister, what are you thinking? It's not a good thing to run away from home like this all the time." Feng Qianqian looked at Feng Xiaoqin helplessly and asked.

"What's wrong? Did the Gu family give you a hard time?" Feng Xiaoqin looked at Feng Qianqian in surprise and asked back.

"That's not the case! It's just that you're not at home to be your hostess, and I, as a guest, feel a little awkward."

"Embarrassing? What's there to be embarrassed about? Do you have the ability to rent a house by yourself? I think your monthly salary is not even enough to pay the rent."

"But……"

"Alright! You don't need to interfere in my affairs. You should solve your own problems as soon as possible."

"Sister, don't you still want to go back?"

"Of course I have to go back! I also want to see what tricks Gu Lei or his sister will play next."

"..."

In fact, the scheming Feng Qianqian did not think that there was anything wrong with Feng Xiaoqin's behavior. You know, some rights and voices need to be fought for. Blindly compromising will only make the Gu family think that Feng Xiaoqin is easy to bully.

But when Feng Qianqian thought of the strange attitude that Suning showed in the morning, she still felt a little uneasy. She always felt that something seemed to have changed in Suning, but she couldn't put her finger on the feeling for the time being.

"Sister, although what you said makes a lot of sense, it's better to go back home tomorrow. After all, we have to see if the Gu family can vent."

"Humph! I've worked tirelessly for the Gu family for almost ten years. Even hiring a nanny would cost a lot of money, right? I just want to buy a house of my own. Can I be ignored by the Gu family?"

"Sister, I feel like my brother-in-law has changed a lot. I'm a little worried that he might really divorce you."

"Xixi, you have such thoughts because you don't understand Gu Lei at all. He is a useless person who can't change his bad habits."

"Uh……"

After hearing Feng Xiaoqin's evaluation of her husband, Feng Qianqian, as her sister-in-law, didn't want to persuade her anymore. After all, the final decision was up to Feng Xiaoqin herself.

……

As Su Ning's twin sister, Gu Qingyu received a call from her father and was also confused by Su Ning's sudden toughness. You know, Gu Qingyu also thought that Su Ning was a hopeless person.

In addition, his younger brother has been suffering from a hidden illness since childhood, and Feng Xiaoqin is the one who has the final say and is domineering at home. It seems that it is difficult for Su Ning to suppress and dominate Feng Xiaoqin. This is also the reason why Gu Qingyu has always been wary of the shrewd Feng Xiaoqin.

"Dad, is Gu Lei unable to hold on any longer?" Gu Qingyu asked his father over the phone, but in his heart he was angry at his disappointing brother.

"Oh! I guess so! Your brother has never been promising since he was young. How could he possibly compete with Feng Xiaoqin?" In fact, Gu's father also thought that Su Ning was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. You know, Su Ning didn't even dare to breathe in front of Feng Xiaoqin.

"Dad, what do you and grandma think? Do you really agree with Feng Xiaoqin buying a house?"

"Qing Yu, you have to know that a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. It's not good to continue to be in a stalemate like this. It's not realistic for your brother to divorce Feng Xiaoqin in his current state. Besides, they both have a little tiger from our Gu family."

"Alright! Dad, since you and grandma have already made up your mind, then as your daughter, I will naturally support you."

"Qingyu, you just bought a new house, so I guess you're not well off financially, right?"

"I'm fine! It's just that I buy fewer brand-name bags and clothes. After all, my income is still very high."

"Qingyu, you've been wronged by family matters. Sometimes I think that if your mother were still alive, she would never let Feng Xiaoqin go so far."

"Dad, our Gu family is living such a good life now. Mother who is far away in heaven must be very happy."

"Yes! These good days really are like a dream."
