I'm in Love Apartment, and the system is making me cultivate immortality.

Chapter 292 Gu Yifan, you womanizer!

One way startups attract employees is by offering them shares.

It's unpleasant to work for your boss and earn money yourself. But it's different if you're earning money for yourself while working.

Big companies will only get more creative with their tactics.

For example, on-the-job bonuses and virtual stock subscriptions are all ways to bind employees.

Gu Yifan gave shares to his senior brother partly to win him over, and partly because his senior brother had indeed helped a lot and contributed the most.

From the initial launch of the studio, to helping Gu Yifan find an assistant, to recruiting employees after the company merger, and going out to run business.

It can be said that without the eldest brother traveling around, there would be no such thing as the eldest brother.

It's extremely difficult to manage the publication of manga volumes and serializations, acquire the copyrights, and simultaneously have them serialized in three weekly magazines.

While Gu Yifan certainly contributed significantly, the senior brother was also very attentive.

In the future, Gu Yifan will still need Du Jun's help to balance Li Mingliang, so this reward share transfer agreement was signed a week ago.

Su Weiwei helped with it.

The eldest brother holds two percent of the original shares, which allows him to enjoy dividends indefinitely without participating in company management. This right remains valid even after he leaves the company, but if he sells them, Gu Yifan has the right of first refusal to buy them back.

It's not a lot, but considering that Zhuge Liang waived the rent for an entire floor of office space for five years in order to get 25% of the shares, there's a lot of value in that.

Moreover, Gu Yifan is confident in making the company bigger and stronger, so acquiring shares now is definitely not a loss.

"How was this surprise? Are you happy enough?"

Gu Yifan smiled at Du Jun, who had been silent.

Du Jun didn't look up. He carefully read through the contract, which wasn't thick but wasn't thin either, before suddenly raising his head and staring straight at Gu Yifan.

"."

"You're not dissatisfied, are you?" Gu Yifan scratched the back of his neck and chuckled dryly.

"I was just teasing you, Senior Brother. Now you know how it feels when you suddenly fall silent in the middle of a conversation, right?"

Du Jun ignored Gu Yifan's lame joke, but his eyes gradually became excited.

"Lord!"

"Huh?" Gu Yifan stopped speaking, three question marks appearing in his mind.

But then Du Jun's eyes reddened, and he rushed over.

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness, my lord. If you do not abandon me, I will certainly repay you with my life."

"Senior brother, let's talk this out calmly, don't be so awkward."

Gu Yifan was startled and quickly stepped back on the boss's chair, as if teleporting, so that he wouldn't be grabbed by his senior brother's leg.

That's why they say artists are all a bit eccentric.

Even the eldest brother has a childish heart.

Du Jun really didn't expect Gu Yifan to reward him with shares.

Although the reward wasn't given to the child's mother.

But with this, there's no need to worry about not finding a mother for your child.

Du Jun has witnessed the changes in the company over the past few months, and he has even more confidence in the person second only to Gu Yifan, who also deserves some credit for his efforts.

The company's future achievements will certainly be substantial.

Du Jun now feels as if he has wasted half his life, but has finally met a wise ruler.

He's full of energy now, not for anything else, but just so his children can have a comfortable life and not have to worry about food and drink.

Du Jun returned to normal, a hint of gratitude appearing on his expressionless face. "I'm very satisfied with this surprise."

"Okay, go back and get some rest. We'll be waiting for you to come back." Gu Yifan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as he saw off this 'hero'.

Little senior brother, you've got him figured out.

Du Jun nodded, turned to leave, but then suddenly remembered something and turned back.

"Is there anything else?" Gu Yifan asked.

"A week's rest is too long. Three days is enough." Du Jun thought carefully.

If you're just sitting at home with nothing to do, you might as well come to the company.

"Wow, so proactive?" Gu Yifan was shocked. Senior Brother, you really are a naturally born Ox-Horse Saint Body.

Du Jun rubbed his hands together, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "But... could I move my office next to the finance department's?"

Gu Yifan: "."

Goodness, so it turns out his real intention wasn't the wine, but the new, fresh-out-of-college finance girl, right?

"Okay." Gu Yifan nodded, but made a condition, speaking calmly with a hint of curiosity.

"But senior brother, can you smile? Let me see you smile. I've never seen you smile before."

Gu Yifan was very curious about what his senior brother looked like when he smiled, given his expressionless face.

No wonder people in ancient times would spend a fortune just to win a smile from a beautiful woman.

Why am I a little excited?

Du Jun hesitated for a moment, "Smile?"

Du Jun: I'm a respectable man. A grown man living between heaven and earth, how could I sell my smiles?

"You laughed. I'll have Xinling introduce you to those senior female students."

Gu Yifan calmly raised his finger and proposed a condition that Du Jun could not refuse.

Du Jun can't get anything out of me with just three sentences. If I go to ask for his contact information, I probably won't get it by the end of the year.

Strangely enough, Gu Yifan was very interested in seeing how his senior brother negotiated the cooperation.

'I'll find an opportunity to go with my senior brother to take a look later,' Gu Yifan thought to himself.

"Is that really true!" Du Jun exclaimed excitedly.

Du Jun: "A true man can bend and stretch. Even Han Xin suffered the humiliation of crawling between someone's legs. What's the big deal about selling a smile?"

Gu Yifan nodded, rubbing his hands together, intending to take a picture the instant his senior brother smiled, with lightning speed.

Guan Gu should be willing to pay a high price to buy it.

Du Jun remained shy for a few more minutes, holding it in for a long time.

Gu Yifan: "Senior Brother, are you going to smile or not? Is it so hard to smile?"

Every girl around him was bewitched by Gu Yifan's perfect smile.

Finally, the eldest brother forced out a strange smile.

Just as Gu Yifan reacted quickly, raised his phone, and snapped a photo.

"Bang bang."

The door was pushed open, and Li Mingliang followed a beautiful figure into the office.

"Boss, a customer is looking for you."

The eldest brother's smile hadn't faded when he turned to look.

Li Mingliang: "."

Du Jun: "."

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet.

Li Mingliang was stunned for a few seconds before hesitatingly saying, "What's going on here? Did I come in at the wrong time?"

Du Jun quickly wiped the smile off his face, which instantly darkened. He was too ashamed to face anyone!
Gu Yifan hadn't expected Qin Yumo to come over at this time, and his face turned a liverish color from trying to suppress his laughter.

"Ahem, Sister Yu Mo, you're here."

"Hmm." Qin Yumo looked at Du Jun curiously, then turned her gaze to Gu Yifan sitting behind the desk.

The sunlight from the window shone directly on Gu Yifan, casting a shadow over him.

Young, rich, and handsome, with the towering skyscrapers of Shanghai behind the floor-to-ceiling windows, he was a dashing young man.

Qin Yumo couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"Hmm, Mr. Gu seems quite busy."

"No, please sit down." Gu Yifan stood up and said considerately to Du Jun, "Senior Brother, you should go back first. Your vacation starts tomorrow."

Du Jun stared intently at the alluring yet intelligent and poised Empress Qin as he walked toward Gu Yifan.

How many is this?

Du Jun felt the share transfer agreement in his hand was no longer appealing, and jealousy drove him to the brink of madness.

Li Mingliang, on the other hand, only heard from the receptionist and HR staff that someone was looking for the boss and had made an appointment in advance, so he brought Qin Yumo over on his way.

Seeing that the two indeed knew each other, he remained silent and quietly followed the ashamed Du Jun out of the office.

Office door.

"Mr. Du, did you just laugh?" Li Mingliang asked curiously.

Du Junyi said sternly, "You must have misunderstood."

At this moment, Li Mingliang noticed the contract in Du Jun's hand, "This is..."

Du Jun coughed and said with a nonchalant air, "This is a reward from the boss for me, a great contributor to the company."

Li Mingliang gave a dry laugh and left, making an excuse that he had something else to do.

On the road.

Her pretty face, which resembled Qi Wei's, revealed a hint of envy, and she secretly clenched her fist and gave a silent punch.

"Hmph, what reward for a great contributor? As long as I, Mingliang, am in power, I will be the general manager of the company!"

"However, I should also show the boss some results, otherwise my position may be in jeopardy."

Thinking of this, Mingliang bit her lip lightly and made up her mind.

I was supposed to go shopping with my best friend tomorrow, but I'm not going!

She was going to come to the company to work overtime and make her presence felt in front of the boss.

Du Jun's old habit of boasting unintentionally inspired Li Mingliang, which was an unexpected bonus.

Inside the office.

"Please sit down, Sister Yu Mo. What would you like to drink?" Gu Yifan gestured for Qin Yu Mo to sit across from him at the desk.

He also doesn't like drinking tea, so there isn't a special tea table for receiving guests.

Qin Yumo smiled and asked, "What do you have?"

Gu Yifan shrugged and pulled open the bottom drawer. "There's Nestlé, milk tea, and chocolate milk. Which do you want?"

Seeing the three packets of beverage powder that Gu Yifan had placed on the table, Qin Yumo immediately lost interest. "Never mind, just plain water will do."

Gu Yifan nodded, took out a paper cup and handed it to Qin Yumo, pointing to the water dispenser next to him, "Help yourself."

Qin Yumo: "."

Even though the company is located in such a high-end office building, it feels rather shabby.

Gu Yifan saw through Qin Yumo's thoughts and explained with a smile.

"The company has just started, and I haven't been here for long, so there's no need to waste my time."

Qin Yumo nodded, went to get a glass of water, and began to tour Gu Yifan's office. Gu Yifan wasn't in a hurry; he had more or less guessed why Miss Qin had come.

However, it's impossible for me to take the initiative to speak up.

He was waiting for Qin Yumo to speak first.

Let's look at Qin Yumo again.

She was also hesitant about how to be more tactful.

When she arrived, she had already planned how to patiently persuade Gu Yifan to cherish Wanyu and not make a mistake.

He is still young and has a long road ahead of him. Just think about the consequences if this matter is exposed.

Would a wealthy heiress like Miss Lin accept this?
Subconsciously, Qin Yumo herself didn't think that Yifei could compete with the young and beautiful Wanyu.

But after entering the office...

Her state of mind had quietly changed again.

Qin Yumo held a paper cup, observing the spacious office and the open door to the lounge next to it.

There was a hint of daze in her beautiful eyes.

After graduation, she successfully entered a major brand like L'Oréal and, through her own efforts, gradually became a senior beauty consultant.

Among white-collar workers in Shanghai, this is definitely considered quite good.

In terms of salary and benefits, Yifei is far inferior.

Even so, it would be impossible for her to own an office in a place like Shanghai where land is incredibly expensive.

Not to mention, there's also plenty of space for a lounge.

This is a perk reserved for senior management.

Gu Yifan not only has his own office, but also his own company.

And he was still in college.

Qin Yumo could find almost no flaws in him, except that he was a bit of a womanizer.

In fact, for most people, being unfaithful is not a big deal.

Leaving aside ancient times, the literati's love for courtesans and beautiful concubines.

Which modern successful man isn't surrounded by a group of beautiful women?
It could even be considered a symbol of charm.

Beautiful women attract the attention of many men.

Similarly, a successful and handsome man is unlikely to lack women around him.

Even with a womanizer like Lu Ziqiao, Qin Yumo didn't say anything.

But what could she do when it happened to her best friend, who also seemed to be the one who interfered in the relationship?

Qin Yumo's feelings for Gu Yifan are somewhat complicated.

On the one hand, she complained about why there wasn't a single pure and good man in the world.

On the other hand, she had developed feelings for Gu Yifan more than once.

If she has such a critical eye, how can she blame her sisters for falling for her?

"Can we come in and have a seat?"

Gu Yifan ignored Qin Yumo, who was touring his office, since there were no important secrets in his office anyway.

He was looking down at the first draft of Douluo Continent that Liao Wei had submitted when he heard this and looked up.

But then Miss Qin stood gracefully at the door of the lounge, pointing to it and asking.

Gu Yifan: "???"

Suddenly, some wicked images popped into my mind.

A beautiful woman with stunning looks wants to sit in the lounge. Isn't that just like inviting a beautiful woman home at night to chat about life and dreams?

What is Qin Yumo trying to do? Offer herself as bait to a tiger?

But Gu Yifan quickly realized what was happening.

Empress Qin probably didn't want to discuss private matters in this way while sitting in her office.

Hmm, Gu Yifan looked at his own boss's chair, then at the person opposite him, and indeed felt a little awkward.

"Okay." Gu Yifan nodded.

Qin Yumo's cheeks flushed slightly. She also felt a little embarrassed to talk in the lounge instead of the office.

But just as Gu Yifan thought, she felt like she was reporting to a leader while sitting across from him at the desk and looking at him in the boss's chair.

This is not conducive to the following conversation.

The two entered the lounge.

Gu Yifan didn't close the door, which made Qin Yumo relax a bit.

"Sister Yumo, you said you needed to talk to me. What is it? You don't mean you're here to apply for a job, do you?"

Gu Yifan sat down on the sofa and made a joke.

After listening, Qin Yumo rolled her eyes.

She works at L'Oréal, so whether she would even consider a small company like this is another matter.

But then.

Miss Qin smiled slyly and nodded.

"Yes, I'd like to come and stay with you~ So, do you have any suitable positions for you, sister?"

"Hmm, you're serious?"

Gu Yifan feigned surprise and pondered for a moment, "Let me think... Assistant Secretary, would Sister Yu Mo be interested?"

Now that Qin Yumo knew he was a womanizer, Gu Yifan no longer hid his appreciation for beauty.

The way they looked at Qin Yumo was a bit excessive.

Today, Qin Yumo wore a casual light-colored suit, paired with a belted shirt and jeans. Her waist-to-hip ratio was also amazing, somewhat like a pear-shaped figure, but even slimmer.

With her stunningly beautiful face and fiery red lips, she truly lives up to her title as Empress.

Feeling Gu Yifan's gaze, and with a bed right next to them, the two were alone in the room.

Qin Yumo's delicate body trembled slightly.

A sense of shame and annoyance rose in my heart.

That womanizer! He's definitely exposed himself. It's too early to try and win her over.

Miss Qin thought to herself, "How could I have been so blind to think that Gu Yifan was such an innocent young man?"

Thus, Miss Qin's eyes subtly revealed a hint of malice.

Gu Yifan was unaware of Qin Yumo's thoughts; otherwise, he would surely feel wronged.

He was just admiring her figure.

The scenery is right there; if he doesn't look at it, wouldn't he be considered unromantic?

It can only be said that people's thoughts cannot be shared.

Thinking of this, Qin Yumo's smile became even more alluring.

"It's not impossible. So, little brother Yifan, how much compensation do you plan to offer your sister?"

As she spoke, Qin Yumo unconsciously coiled her hair around her finger and leaned forward slightly.

The delicate fragrance wafting from her, along with her tall, proud figure, was incredibly alluring.

Gu Yifan and Qin Yumo locked eyes.

Qin Yumo's alluring eyes held a hint of encouragement and expectation.

"Yes, as long as you come, you can name your salary and benefits."

Gu Yifan said sincerely, even though he knew it was impossible.

But what if.

If you manage to win over Her Majesty the Empress and make her your teammate, the salary you give to your teammate can also be counted as a rebate.

Qin Yumo raised her eyebrows, and with a little makeup, her beautiful face became even more charming, with an intriguing smile.

"Oh? Then I want an annual salary of one million."

"No problem." Gu Yifan nodded without hesitation.

His expression didn't look like he was joking.

This startled Qin Yumo, who wondered if his expression meant he was truly willing.

“Even a monthly salary of a million, I’d do it,” Gu Yifan added with a wink.

If the return is tenfold, that's ten million a month, and one hundred and twenty million a year, all pure profit.

Gu Yifan could laugh himself awake even in his dreams.

Unfortunately, upon hearing this, Qin Yumo's heart, which had wavered for a moment, calmed down again.

That's a bit of an exaggeration.

Miss Qin rolled her eyes dramatically. "You're kidding me."

A million-dollar annual salary is something only senior executives can afford; someone earning a million a month should be doing charity.

"Are you kidding me? I'm serious." Qin Yumo tilted her head and smiled.

"I'm serious too."

Gu Yifan also answered in a very serious manner.

I was still somewhat disappointed.

He's really willing to give, even if he can't do anything, he doesn't mind being a decorative figurehead.

These days, nobody believes you when you tell the truth.

What about trust between people?
Qin Yumo took Gu Yifan's words as a joke, which actually made the strange feeling in her heart disappear.

Gritting his teeth, he realized he had underestimated him before. He could spout nonsense with such sincerity; he was quite the actor!
Hmph, no wonder Yifei got caught up in it.

While remaining somewhat vigilant, Qin Yumo had no intention of beating around the bush.

She leaned back in her chair, creating some distance between them, her smile fading, and said seriously.

"Okay, no kidding."

"I am here today as a sister to Yifei."

As Qin Yumo spoke, she kept a close eye on Gu Yifan's every move, trying to glean something from his expression.

"Hmm? So?" Gu Yifan nodded, signaling Miss Qin to continue.

There was nothing particularly surprising or perplexing about it.

This puzzled Qin Yumo. Did he know that she knew?

But the arrow is on the string and must be fired.

Qin Yumo asked the question.

"I want to know, what exactly is your relationship with Yifei now?"
