Chapter 918 Recruiting Sun Qi
In fact, Sun Qi knew a little about Su Ning's situation. After all, she had been in love with Gu Xin for ten years and was already very familiar with the situation of the Gu family.

So Sun Qi knew that the Su Ning in front of him was an "honest man", and he did not feel implicated or blame Su Ning for being Gu Xin's cousin. Instead, he regarded Su Ning as a good person to talk to.

Although Sun Qi is a model and looks very beautiful, she is no different from ordinary women when she is drunk and curses her mother. She soon drank one glass after another and told Gu Xin about the bad things that happened between her and Gu Xin.

"Sun Qi, I didn't expect Gu Xin to be so excessive. I will teach him a lesson later."

"Forget it! I've completely given up on him now. Ten years of my youth have all gone to waste."

"So, what are your plans for the future?"

"To France! I found a job in Paris, France."

"Sun Qi, I remember you used to be a model?"

"Yes! I am still working in this industry now."

"Sun Qi, I have a suggestion here. Would you like to listen carefully?"

"Oh? Then tell me."

"I recently made some money in the stock market and plan to partner with other friends to open a modeling agency and a clothing company. We'll specialize in designing and promoting our own products, and strive to make them a well-known brand."

"Ah? This is a big project! Do you have enough funds?"

"Funding is definitely not a problem! Even if it's not enough, we can always contact an investment company. How about you be the head of this modeling company?"

"Me? I can't."

"Sun Qi, your modeling career is all about youth. How many more years can you walk on the catwalk? It would be best for you to quit now and work behind the scenes."

"Brother Lei, why are you so nice to me?"

"Haha, you and Gu Xin have been together for so long, you should know some of my specific situations. Whether it's the modeling industry or the clothing industry, I don't know much about it. Now when I do business with others, I always have to find someone to help me."

"Really?" Although Suning's explanation at this time was flawless, Sun Qi still noticed a hint of passion in Suning's eyes.

"So what do you think?" Suning asked indifferently, staring into the eyes of the smart and beautiful woman in front of him.

"Brother Lei, let's drink! We won't go home until we're drunk tonight."

"That's fine! It just so happens that I signed the divorce agreement with Feng Xiaoqin today. No one will care even if I don't come home drunk."

"Ah? Brother Lei, what's going on? I remember you and Feng Xiaoqin had a good relationship?"

"Drink! I'm tired of talking about such rubbish."

"Okay! Let's drink."

As the saying goes, if it's not wine that makes you drunk, you make your own way. Soon, both Suning and Sun Qi got drunk at the same time. Of course, for Suning, who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, this amount of wine was nothing. The reason why he pretended to be drunk was because he realized that Sun Qi, who was heartbroken, couldn't stop drinking. If he continued drinking, a tragic situation would occur.

Next, Suning held the drunk Sun Qi in his arms, and left the bar on the Bund in Shanghai under the bartender's amused gaze, and directly stopped a passing taxi.

"Master, let's go to the Hyatt Hotel."

"Okay! Fasten your seatbelts, please."

Although Suning and the drunk Sun Qi were acquaintances, he really didn't know where she lived, and naturally it was impossible for him to send her to her ex-boyfriend Gu Xin, so the hotel became the best place for Suning and Sun Qi.

With Suning's current physical strength, it was easy for him to pick up the drunk Sun Qi, and then he carried Sun Qi to the hotel room without any trouble.

Although Sun Qi in front of him was very beautiful and attractive, he would not have any thoughts about a drunk woman. Instead, he went straight to the living room of the room and fell asleep.

The next morning, when Sun Qi woke up again with a splitting headache, he found himself in the presidential suite of a star-rated hotel. He hurriedly checked his clothes but found nothing unusual.

Sun Qi felt relieved but also curious. She suddenly felt that Suning was not as honest as she thought. She realized that many people might have overlooked Suning's potential.

Thinking back to what they discussed in the bar last night and recalling the various favorable conditions that Suning mentioned, Sun Qi was really tempted at this time.

……

After leaving the hotel, Suning changed into a set of clean clothes prepared by the hotel waiter, which was nothing considering the service standards of star-rated hotels. Then, instead of returning to Gu's house, he went directly to work.

The discussion with Sun Qi last night about opening a modeling company was not a spur-of-the-moment decision. After all, if one wants to live a more exciting life, necessary packaging is definitely necessary.

"Gu Lei, have you resolved your family issues?" The manager asked with a smile as he looked at Suning who came to cancel his leave.

"It's solved! They're just some small things at home." Suning explained with a nonchalant smile.

"Well, I've looked at the financial statements you submitted yesterday. They're very detailed."

"Thank you, manager! I will keep working hard."

"Get to work! Our department needs to get last month's payroll calculated as soon as possible."

"Okay, Manager."

As a small financial officer of the company, Suning's job is really very easy. After all, he is a man who has experienced many successful entrepreneurial experiences. Doing these simple tasks is naturally a piece of cake for him now.

In the past, due to some of Suning's own reasons, it was difficult for him to get along with these colleagues. In addition, his colleagues were all office workers who needed to work hard to support their families, so they were naturally not so welcoming and fond of Suning, a relative of his.

"Sister Jing, I took half a day off yesterday afternoon. I hope it didn't cause any trouble to our department?" Suning asked with a smile while sitting at his workstation and looking at the female colleague next to him.

"Ah? No! Everyone has troubles at home." The female colleague Sister Jing looked at Suning in surprise, then shook her head with the same smile.

"Thank you, Sister Jing, for your understanding! If it's convenient for our colleagues in the department, I'll treat everyone to dinner and karaoke after get off work tonight."

"Ah? Gu Lei, this isn't a good idea, is it?"

"Sister Jing, I've been working in our department for quite some time now, so I should definitely invite everyone out for a get-together!"

"Alright! I'll go inform everyone in a bit. I'm sure everyone will be very happy about it."

"Okay! I'll trouble you, Sister Jing. I've already made an appointment with the manager, and he'll be going with us tonight."

"Huh? Okay." My colleague Sister Jing couldn't help but show a surprised expression, and she also knew what Suning's words meant.

If Suning had personally invited everyone out for dinner, everyone would have given him some face. But when he mentioned that the manager would also go, things changed. These veterans immediately became much more proactive. The finance department dinner that evening was incredibly lively. The colleagues hadn't expected Suning to take them out for Japanese food. Although everyone knew Japanese food was just a sham, the packaging and promotion of Japanese food were great, and the Shanghai hipsters in particular loved it.

After all the colleagues had enjoyed their meal, they went to a nearby KTV to party and sang until almost one in the morning. Then everyone dispersed and went home with a sense of reluctance.

"Xiao Lei, you finally got it and know how to get along well with your colleagues." The manager patted Suning's shoulder with satisfaction. The troublemaker in front of him finally stopped causing him trouble.

"Manager, if I do anything wrong in the future, please be sure to correct me." At this time, Suning behaved very humbly, without any arrogance or contempt.

"Don't worry! For your sister's sake, I will definitely take care of you in the company."

"Thank you manager."

After watching the manager get into the car driven by the designated driver and leave, Suning stopped a passing taxi. Lying in the taxi, Suning leaned back in the chair and the depression he had felt since the journey was finally swept away.

……

Suning, who could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, was not drunk at all, but the smell of alcohol on his body was very strong, which required a good hot bath to get rid of.

But just as Su Ning opened the door of his house, he saw Gu Qingyu and Gu's father sitting on the sofa waiting for him, "Gu Lei, I thought you wouldn't come back."

"Qingyu, it's already one o'clock in the morning, why are you still dragging your father to stay up late?" At this time, Su Ning asked back, turning the tables.

"You? Where did you go to drink so late?" The angry Gu Qingyu soon smelled the stench of alcohol on Su Ning.

"I'm having dinner with colleagues tonight. Doesn't it take this long to eat and sing karaoke?"

"Gu Lei, don't you always dislike dinner parties?" Gu Qingyu and Gu's father were surprised to hear that Su Ning actually went out to dinner with his colleagues.

"Why so many whys! I'm going to take a shower first, and you guys should go to bed quickly!" Suning said impatiently and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.

Gu Qingyu and her father looked at each other in bewilderment. Then, her father smiled wryly at his daughter and said, "See? Gu Lei has changed a lot."

"Dad, did Gu Lei get upset? For example, Feng Xiaoqin did something without telling him, and he found out?"

"Gu Qingyu, what are you talking about? Xiaoqin is busy at home every day. How can she have the time and energy for that?"

"But...Gu Lei is acting too abnormally now!"

"I think! Let's stop guessing and just ask him directly later."

"Alright."

Soon, Su Ning finished his shower, but found that Gu Qingyu and Gu's father had not gone to bed, and Feng Xiaoqin and Feng Qianqian were also beside them. "What's the matter? Is there something you want to ask? Ask now!"

"Gu Lei, this is the room key that Zhan Xiang gave me. He said his tenant has moved out." Gu Qingyu first handed a bunch of keys to Su Ning, thinking of asking where the money for buying the house came from next.

"So fast! I thought it would at least last a few days of quarreling." Suning picked up the key and said in surprise.

"Zhan Xiang waived six months' rent for his tenant. Plus, he presented you with the deal. There's no reason for the tenant not to move out as soon as possible."

"Haha, it seems Zhan Xiang is indeed a prudent person. It would be nice to have him as my brother-in-law in the future."

"What are you talking about?"

"Gu Lei, where did you get the money to buy a house? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Thirteen million can buy a new house." Seeing that Gu Qingyu was diverted by Su Ning, Feng Xiaoqin, who was tempted by money, couldn't help herself.

"Feng Xiaoqin, are you not thinking straight? We already got the divorce certificate this morning. What does my Gu family affairs have to do with you, a nanny?" How could Su Ning not understand Feng Xiaoqin's mentality? He immediately said to Feng Xiaoqin in a bad mood and sarcastically.

"you……"

"Gu Lei, you've gone too far! Although you and Xiaoqin are divorced, she is still Xiao Lao Hu's mother. She has the right to know what happened." Gu's father couldn't stand it anymore and even wanted to seek justice for his former daughter-in-law.

"Gu Shihong, are you sure about what you just said?" Su Ning stared at the good-natured Gu father with vicious eyes. Such cold questioning and calling him by his name immediately frightened Gu father.

"Ah? I..." Father Gu had never encountered such a thing before, and he was immediately speechless with fear.

"Feng Xiaoqin, I have one last warning for you. You are just a live-in nanny in my Gu family. You only need to take good care of the whole family. I, Gu Lei, will never deduct a cent from your salary. If you dare to interfere in our Gu family affairs again, you will get out of the Gu family immediately."

"..."

"Gu Lei, you're going too far! How can you talk to our dad like that?" Gu Qingyu, who was standing there like a fool, couldn't stand it anymore and quickly scolded Su Ning for being disrespectful to his father.

"Gu Qingyu, don't think that just because you have a good job and earn a lot of money, you can tell all of us what to do. From now on, you don't need to interfere in my affairs."

"Gu Lei, do you have rabies? Why do you bite whoever you catch?" Gu Qingyu looked at Su Ning with an expression of disbelief. There was no trace of the younger brother he had in his memory.

"Yes! Since you know I'm sick, you'd better stay away from me." In the original drama, he was about to die, so Su Ning naturally didn't have any good tone to these people.

"you……"

Suning looked at Feng Xiaoqin with disgust, who was in a state of bewilderment. Then he went to the bedroom, grabbed his own bedding, and went directly to the newly purchased house next door. It was really nice to live alone in a three-bedroom apartment.

At this moment, Feng Xiaoqin realized what she had lost. She returned to the room with Feng Qianqian with a pale face and weak body. Looking at the little tiger sleeping on the bed, she fell into deep thought.

In the past, Feng Xiaoqin always compared herself with the nanny in order to publicize her hard work in the Gu family and force the Gu family to pay for her dream of buying a house. Little did she know that in the end it was Suning who helped her realize her dream of being a nanny. It was really funny and ridiculous.

"Sister, it seems like you and your brother-in-law will never be together."

"Xixi, do you think I'm wrong to do this?"

"You're not wrong! It's this damn fate that's wrong."

"Yes! It seems that I, Feng Xiaoqin, have a bad fate."

"Sister, don't think too much. Don't you still have little tiger?"

"That's right! I still have a son to support me. I must continue to work hard to make money. I must make Gu Lei regret looking down on me."

Suning's disregard and ridicule of Feng Xiaoqin severely crushed Feng Xiaoqin's self-esteem, and made Feng Xiaoqin determined to be self-reliant. She also started delivering food early. I just don't know if she can be lucky enough to open a nursing home with Zhan Xiang like in the original drama.
