Playing the male antagonist in a melodramatic novel is fine for a bit of fun.
Chapter 53 Refine You
After breakfast, Guo Le and Guo Yueyue left.
The two of them will be handling the business of Guo's Pharmaceuticals together.
Now that the shares that needed to be returned have been returned, it's time to make a big splash, so both of them are full of energy.
Chen Zhou was very pleased with this.
Chen Xin left a little while after Guo Le and the others left; she had classes today.
Of course, her main purpose in going to school was not to attend the lectures, but to tell Wenwen that her older brother had a universal martial arts technique, so that Wenwen could prepare in advance.
Besides that, she had another plan.
Inside Guo Le and Guo Yueyue's car, the female driver said, "Miss, Second Miss, the Chen family's car seems to be chasing us."
They were already quite a distance from the Chen family's residence, so Guo Le and Guo Yueyue exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit strange.
Is there something you forgot to tell me?
But can't I say it on my phone?
Despite his doubts, Guo Le still had the car stop and got out to wait.
A moment later, the Chen family's car also stopped, and Chen Xin, with a smile on her face, stepped out.
Chen Xin looked at Guo Le, and just as she was about to speak, she heard Guo Le's phone ring.
Guo Le glanced at the caller ID and immediately abandoned the idea of hanging up to listen to Chen Xin speak first.
She pointed to the screen and said, "Your brother."
Chen Xin froze, her smile instantly vanishing.
Guo Le answered the phone quickly and talked with Chen Zhou for a while.
Chen Xin didn't hear what Chen Zhou said, but she heard Guo Le repeatedly responding that he understood and knew how to do it.
After Guo Le hung up the phone, Chen Xin looked at him, a hint of despair in her voice: "What did my brother say?"
In fact, she already had a 99% guess about what Chen Zhou had said.
But she wouldn't give up and wanted to struggle a little longer.
Guo Le smiled politely: "Young Master Chen instructed that if Miss Chen were to recommend people to me, I shouldn't offer them high salaries out of respect for him; just pay them according to the value of the work they can do."
Thinking back to the best friend Chen Xin mentioned last night, Guo Le already knew what Chen Xin was up to.
If Chen Zhou hadn't specifically told her otherwise, she would have helped Chen Xin with this small favor.
Unfortunately, Chen Zhou has now confessed.
Chen Xin sighed deeply: "I knew it."
Once her brother makes a decision, he takes all aspects into consideration.
I originally thought that my brother hadn't noticed that Guo Le's side could accommodate people, but I didn't expect that he would notice it in the end.
Guo Le found it amusing to look at Chen Xin, who was on the verge of tears, and couldn't resist teasing her. So he asked, "So, Miss Chen, what do you have to tell me after you caught up with me?"
Guo Yueyue watched from the side. Although she didn't understand the specifics, she now understood Chen Xin's intentions.
Chen Xin wanted to ask her sister to put someone in the company with a high salary, but Chen Shao anticipated Chen Xin's actions.
You can hire people, but their salaries must be based on the value they create.
Faced with Guo Le's provocation, Chen Xin's eyes widened: "You're doing this on purpose!"
Guo Le was also present at yesterday's events.
Guo Le took over Guo's Pharmaceuticals at a young age, demonstrating both ability and intelligence.
Therefore, she simply did not believe that Guo Le did not know what she wanted to say.
Guo Le opened his eyes wide and asked with an innocent expression, "What is Miss Chen saying? I don't understand."
Guo Yueyue grinned mischievously: "Sister, Miss Chen wants to get someone into our company."
Guo Le looked enlightened: "Oh, I see."
"Miss Chen, that's great! When will they arrive?"
Chen Xin: !
She realized that Guo Le was not a good person, and neither was her sister.
These two are clearly just fooling themselves, singing in unison!
Sure enough, capitalists are all cunning, and my brother is no exception!
There's no other way. My brother has completely blocked my path, so I can only rely on myself to come up with a solution.
Thinking this, Chen Xin's face regained its generous and proper smile: "What are you talking about? I just wanted to get your personal contact information, since we'll definitely be in touch often because of my brother."
Guo Le was taken aback, then said, "That's true."
Guo Yueyue: "But really, do we not need to stuff people in?"
Chen Xin almost lost her composure, but she held back.
With a smile, she added the two of them to her private contact list before saying, "See you later."
Once seated in the car, Chen Xin's smile vanished instantly.
Luckily, she was quick-witted and didn't admit it or say a word about trying to stuff someone in her mouth, otherwise she would have been incredibly embarrassed.
Inside Guo Le's car.
Guo Le smiled and said, "Miss Chen is quite cute."
Guo Yueyue nodded in agreement: "I second that. Can we keep one?"
Guo Le: !
Seeing Guo Le's surprised expression, Guo Yueyue said, "I was just kidding."
Guo Le nodded: "I see."
But Guo Yueyue's serious expression just now didn't seem like she was joking.
……
At 13:59, John entered the Chen family home.
Inside the Chen family villa, John looked at Chen Zhou and said, "This is the first time I've ever seen a ghost exist in the world as a living person."
Chen Zhou smiled, offering no further explanation to the dying man, and simply said, "Come with me."
John followed Chen Zhou into the basement, where they saw two pieces of paper with strange patterns that looked like talismans, and a small bell on each piece of paper.
In addition, there were some plants that were not recognized and a large cauldron with flames burning underneath.
He looked at Chen Zhou: "Those are talismans, aren't they?"
Chen Zhou nodded: "Yes."
John wore a very unspeakable expression: "You, a ghost, are researching talismans? Aren't you afraid of hurting yourself?"
As Chen Zhou filled the cauldron with medicinal herbs, he replied, "Not really."
John watched Chen Zhou's actions and asked, "Are you trying to refine something?"
Chen Zhou nodded: "That's right."
John found it quite amusing; Chen Zhou, this ghostly creature, was willing to answer any questions, and it seemed he would gain a lot of knowledge today.
John: "Do you need my help?"
Chen Zhou: "Yes, it is necessary."
John breathed a sigh of relief; if they needed his help, it seemed they really weren't going to kill him.
John walked over to the herbs and said, "Let me get you the herbs first. Just tell me the color and shape, and I'll hand them to you."
Chen Zhou chuckled; this foreigner hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem.
He nodded and said, "That works too."
With the cooperation of Chen Zhou and John, all the medicinal herbs were quickly put into the large cauldron.
After John finished adding the herbs, he asked curiously, "What are you making?"
He found it hard not to be curious about what the ghost was going to make.
That is, he tested Chen Zhou and found that this ghost was always willing to answer questions, otherwise he really wouldn't dare to ask, for fear that he would die if he did.
Chen Zhou reached out and summoned the Vajra Talisman: "Refine you."
