Chapter 067 Absolutely Refusing to Take Money
Market department’s big shot, where did he come from? One moment the chairman is looking for him, the next moment the general manager is looking for him. What kind of background does this Su Rui have?
Actually, to notify Su Rui to go to the chairman’s office, Xia Qing could have easily done it with a phone call, but for some reason, she insisted on coming to the marketing department in person.
When Cao Tianping heard Xia Qing say this, his heart immediately settled back in his stomach. It seems that in the future, he should be more careful at work to avoid making a bad impression.
And sitting not far away, Chen Leigang had already taken in all of Su Rui and Cao Tianping’s actions, with a flash of indignation in his eyes!
Actually, the one who mainly embarrassed Chen Leigang was Su Rui, but he hated Cao Tianping as well, firstly because he was close to Su Rui, and secondly because that cup of thick phlegm he drank that day was made by Cao Tianping!
Watching Su Rui and Xia Qing leave together, Chen Leigang’s face was extremely gloomy. He took out his phone, composed a text message, and sent it out. The recipient was clearly written as—Yin Xiumei!
“Brother Lin, what did you want to see me about?”
In front of Lin Fuzhang, Su Rui wasn’t uncomfortable at all, sitting casually on the sofa. Xia Qing had already prepared tea for him, and taking a sip, the aroma was overwhelming. It was hard to tell whether it was the good tea or the person who made it.
Lin Fuzhang looked at Su Rui, liking him more and more. His old friend was really considerate to have found such a godlike figure from abroad to help! And despite his extraordinary skills, he didn’t have the slightest air of arrogance! It was truly rare!
What an excellent young man!
Especially last night, Lin Fuzhang thought Su Rui had gone somewhere to enjoy himself, but never expected that he was quietly guarding next to the Lin family estate! Those two Western experts hadn’t even climbed over the wall before Su Rui beat them half to death!
Lin Aoxue saw Su Rui display that gold medal from the surveillance camera, and naturally, Lin Fuzhang saw it too. For something that made even high-level experts from the Western dark world tremble in fear, Lin Fuzhang was naturally very curious.
So, he called that old friend, who told him not to ask too many questions, because some information would do him no good to know.
Lin Fuzhang was no ordinary person. He had built Bikang Group from nothing to its current status with his own abilities, so his instincts and vision were naturally incomparable to ordinary people. He keenly understood the deeper meaning in his old friend’s words!
That is—Su Rui had an extremely mysterious status! This status was completely beyond his level to touch!
Therefore, Lin Fuzhang didn’t ask further, but became even more attentive to Su Rui! After hanging up the phone, he stared out the window thinking for two hours before asking Xia Qing to bring Su Rui over.
Perhaps, if he could establish a good relationship with Su Rui, it might be an excellent opportunity for Bikang!
Bikang was a top pharmaceutical giant in China, but on the vast international stage, it was really nothing! Lin Fuzhang had long wanted to reestablish Bikang Group’s image internationally, but never had the chance!
Lin Fuzhang signaled Xia Qing to close the door, then sat opposite Su Rui and said, “Brother Su, how do you feel accompanying Aoxue recently?”
“It feels pretty good.” Thinking of Lin Aoxue’s subtle changes yesterday, Su Rui couldn’t help but reveal a slight smile.
This slight smile was clearly caught by Lin Fuzhang, who believed he wasn’t seeing things. When mentioning Aoxue, Su Rui really did smile!
This point surprised Lin Fuzhang very much! It’s worth noting that his daughter had an icy personality and never took anyone seriously!
Lin Fuzhang said with some apology, “Brother Su, I know you have a career abroad, so asking you to return to China to protect Aoxue is certainly somewhat inappropriate, and Aoxue’s temper isn’t very good. We’re quite sorry about this matter.”
Indeed, the completion time for this task was indefinite, and who knows how much of Su Rui’s valuable time it would take. Lin Fuzhang probably couldn’t compensate him enough!
“Brother Lin, what are you saying? Aoxue and I get along well, and I’m very happy here.” Su Rui was telling the truth. If at the beginning, when he first heard about this task, he did have serious resistance, but now it seems the level of interest far exceeded Su Rui’s imagination. He had been fighting in the Western dark world for so long and was genuinely tired, so it was good to return home to rest for a while.
Besides, there were so many beautiful women in China that he was truly reluctant to leave.
Lin Fuzhang thought Su Rui was just being polite, thinking, this child is so young yet so sensible, truly a rare talent! Therefore, his determination to win over Su Rui became even stronger!
Lin Fuzhang took out a bank card from his coat pocket, placed it in front of Su Rui, and said, “Brother Su, this card is for you.”
Su Rui looked at the card but didn’t pick it up, saying playfully, “Brother Lin, what do you mean by this?”
“Brother Su, on the surface you’re working at Bikang Group, but in reality, you’re here to help our Lin family. I naturally can’t let that girl Aoxue act recklessly, giving you only 3,000 yuan monthly salary. That girl is simply joking.”
“So, there’s 2 million in this card. Please accept it, consider it as activity funds.”
“Activity funds for a year?” Su Rui smiled. To be honest, although it was a considerable amount, he wouldn’t take it seriously. Who knows how much the Sun God Apollo’s assets were worth.
“No, this is monthly activity funds. On the first of each month, I’ll have the finance department transfer 2 million to this card. Feel free to use it.” Lin Fuzhang said.
In fact, if Su Rui didn’t accept this card, Lin Fuzhang would be uneasy, because if Su Rui took the money, it would represent an employer-employee relationship between them, and he wouldn’t quit at any time, providing an additional layer of security for Bikang Group.
Su Rui seemed to see through Lin Fuzhang’s thoughts. He smiled and pushed the card back to Lin Fuzhang, saying, “Brother Lin, you still don’t trust me? Want to tie me down with money?”
“No, no, absolutely not.” Lin Fuzhang waved his hands repeatedly. Joking aside, even if he had such thoughts, he would never admit it.
“I can’t accept this money.” Su Rui put down his crossed leg and said, “This is something I promised an old friend I would do. Between friends, we shouldn’t talk about money, otherwise, the relationship changes.”
Hearing this, Lin Fuzhang’s eyes flashed with deep admiration. Su Rui’s words really appealed to him! Nowadays, young people who could speak with such chivalry were rare!
“But…” Lin Fuzhang hesitated.
“Brother Lin, don’t ‘but’ anymore. If I really wanted money, your 2 million per month wouldn’t be enough.”
Su Rui’s words sounded extremely arrogant, but to Lin Fuzhang, they seemed very genuine. He had witnessed Su Rui’s skills, and someone valued by his old friend must not be an ordinary person.
Lin Fuzhang’s face turned red. He had gritted his teeth to offer 2 million in monthly activity funds, but never expected that the other party didn’t care at all!
“Brother Lin, if you don’t have anything else, I’ll head back now.” Su Rui wanted to go back and watch Tang Nilan’s MV a few more times. After all, looking at a sexy beauty was better than looking at a man in his fifties.
“Well, alright.” After some hesitation, Lin Fuzhang finally took back the card.
Before leaving, Su Rui drank all the tea Xia Qing had poured for him in one go, then said with a smile, “By the way, Brother Lin, I have a small request.”
“A small request? Brother Su, please go ahead!” Now Lin Fuzhang was afraid Su Rui wouldn’t have any requests, so hearing this, he was immediately overjoyed!
“Well, this tea is good, get me two jin (1 kg).” Su Rui cheerfully took the entire tea canister from the coffee table.
“Good, no problem, definitely no problem. I’ll have Xia Qing deliver it to you this afternoon!” Lin Fuzhang laughed heartily. Su Rui’s request was far beyond his expectations. Just two jin of tea? If he wanted, two hundred jin wouldn’t be a problem!
After Su Rui left, Lin Fuzhang stood up, shaking his head with a bitter smile.
He had wanted to recruit him and offered a price of 2 million per month, but the other party wasn’t interested at all, preferring to take a base salary of 3,000 per month. What concept was this?
Nowadays, young people like this were really rare. After today’s events, Lin Fuzhang was very eager to know Su Rui’s true identity. He wanted to understand what kind of environment could produce such a person.
At this moment, the door to Lin Fuzhang’s office rest area suddenly opened, and Lin Aoxue walked out from inside!
Seeing his daughter appear, the bitter smile on Lin Fuzhang’s face deepened. He knew that his conversation with Su Rui had been completely overheard by Lin Aoxue.
“Aoxue, you’re right, I shouldn’t try to recruit Su Rui with money, but how did you know that Su Rui wouldn’t take this money? Doing so much for our Lin family, it would be reasonable for him to accept this money.”
Lin Aoxue gave her father a faint glance: “He won’t take the money, don’t embarrass yourself.”
With that, Lin Aoxue turned and walked out, leaving Lin Fuzhang to continue his bitter smile. This precious daughter, he really had no way to handle her.
What Lin Fuzhang didn’t know was that Lin Aoxue was now equally puzzled about Su Rui’s identity. After returning to her office, she thought for a few minutes and sent an email to a friend abroad. The content was simple—”Have you heard of Su Rui?”
However, Lin Aoxue hesitated to press the send button. After hesitating for two minutes, she gently bit her lip with her teeth, then deleted the entire email content.
What should be known will eventually be known. With such a vague question, even if her friend had extensive connections, they wouldn’t be able to figure it out, because there must be at least thousands of people named Su Rui in all of China, and probably quite a few abroad as well.
Lin Aoxue stared at the email, falling into deep thought.
