Gossip King - Chapter 993
Chapter 993 Drink the Wine of Grief, and Shed No Tears of Grief
“I just want him to take Susu out to play as a friend. There’s nothing else. Go get busy.” Old Butler stopped talking and instructed.
Gaoleng couldn’t sleep. Old Butler’s words echoed in his ears. He could always see Su Su sitting at a round table filled with dishes on New Year’s Eve, drinking cups after cups, and clashing cups with empty cups again and again.
It was as if they could hear the clanging of glasses.
What sounded was the fact that this woman who owned the Huantai Group had nothing. She was happy with her relatives on New Year’s Eve, but she could only drink a cup of sad wine with an empty wine cup reunited around the New Year’s Eve.
Unable to sleep, Gaoleng got up at three in the morning and walked out of the door. Looking at Su Su’s meeting room not far away, the door was open. There were some sounds of discussion coming from inside, and some food was sent in from the kitchen. It seemed that it was time for the meeting to rest. Gaoleng walked over and gently pushed open the open back door. He saw that the seven or eight people inside were holding food in their hands, either laughing or discussing.
As for Su Su, she sat in the middle of the conference table. In front of her was a plate with some food on it, but she did not move a single mouthful. She only held her forehead with one hand and wrote something on the book with the other. Her brows were sometimes tightly knitted and sometimes opened. Everyone else was tired as they ate, but Su Su was very energetic.
“Honey, um, I’m working overtime. I can’t go back today. Sleeping on President Su’s side. Um… Ah, I’m working overtime again. I can’t do anything about it. I know it’s your birthday. I’ll be back after the meeting. President Su has already granted me leave.” An employee whispered to himself as he walked up the stairs with his phone in his hand.
Evidently, following a boss of the work party was also risking his life. It was also common for him to work overtime until three or four in the morning. However, he could rest for a day after the meeting. Su Su, on the other hand, continued to be busy for a day. All she had was the Huantai Group.
‘”Mm, Mom, I can’t go back tonight. There’s still a meeting. Sigh, there’s no other way. The American project has to be held at night. Besides, this is the Huantai Group. Can’t you do something about it? Wait for me to fight for a few more years and I’ll have everything, and I’ll be able to live a good life.” Another young man walked out of the meeting room and whispered on the phone.
In the imperial capital, countless office workers struggled with sleepiness in the darkness of the night. Not everyone was like Su Su, a young lady born with a golden key. Most ordinary people had dreams and a sliver of hope in this metropolis, and they were fighting for a bright future.
Occasionally, people would come out to make phone calls, and there was someone worried about them on the other side of the phone.
Gaoleng couldn’t help but think of himself. Originally, he didn’t have anything and even lost his life. But now, even though he didn’t have his parents alive, he had a gentle and lovely girlfriend. He had his left and right arm, Jian Xiaodan, and a tall and small tail that could protect him. Although he didn’t have Su Su’s capital, he was more than enough than an ordinary person. Gaoleng looked at Su Su and couldn’t help but feel a burst of sorrow.
Miss Jiao, who was born with the golden key, had everything. She had parents who loved her father and mother, relatives who loved her mother and father, and relatives who loved her. She also had the powerful capital to inherit the wealth of Huantai in the future. But now, she had paid for it and had nothing left.
The sound of Su Su clashing glasses with other empty glasses on New Year’s Eve resounded in Gaoleng’s ears.
Kuang, kuang, kuang…
What sounded was the pitiful loneliness of this woman who owned the Huantai Group. She could stand on the peak of the Huantai Group and rebuke Fang Qiuxiang for being envious of others, but she could not fall on the shoulders of her relatives and shed a single tear of grievance.
He drank the sad wine, but he couldn’t shed tears of grief, how desolate.
Everyone in the business circle said that Su Su was a woman who did not have a real smile. Her smile was all professional, and it was more like a smile that showed killing intent to swallow her opponent. It was a scary smile.
But if you were her, how could you laugh?
Gaoleng turned around and left the room. This was not the pain he could relieve now. He could only sigh empty-handedly.
The next morning, when Gaoleng woke up and opened the door, he saw a staff member in formal clothes guarding the door. The staff member had a contract in triplicate on the ground. It was the cooperation contract he had chatted with Su Su yesterday.
“She went to Huantai at six o’clock. There were big clients visiting this morning. She had to prepare early. President Gao should have some breakfast first.” Old Butler’s voice was filled with heartache as he bent towards Gaoleng and said, “If you sign the contract, I’ll take it.”
It was only seven o’clock when he came out of Su Manor. The early winter sun in the imperial capital had just dawned, and it was still misty. Gaoleng’s speed was very fast as he headed straight for Xingsheng, and the pedestrians on the road were in a hurry. The Great Thousand Worlds had their own bustles, and bustling was not the same as rising.
Gao Leng was different. His eyes were filled with ambition and a future. He faced the early winter sun with a soul-stirring light.
The speed was going to increase, and the method was going to be more ruthless. Gaoleng thought, the speed of the car was as fast as his rising speed, leaving the other cars far behind, and he could no longer see them.

Gaoleng’s office.
Old Diao sat upright on the sofa, drinking a cup of tea while reading the magazine of Xingsheng Magazine. Not to mention, Old Diao’s temperament had unknowingly noticed a great change. The driver of the past was gone, and now, Old Diao was full of imposing manner when he sat down.
Fatty, on the other hand, was lying on the sofa in a paralyzed Beijing posture. It was in stark contrast to Old Diao. However, his eyes were fixated on what was written on his phone. He was also dealing with formulas. This old playboy’s posture was quite playboy, but his work was getting easier and smoother. Now, he was leading a department without Jian Xiaodan interfering in it at all. He was doing it vividly and colorfully.
Jian Xiaodan stood in front of the window and closed her eyes to rest.
Gaoleng held the phone and was chatting with the big clients. He told them to come in and have a small meeting before answering the phone for almost 30 minutes. Finally, he put down the phone. Gaoleng waved his hand and a few people surrounded him.
“I have an important matter to ask you guys to come here today. I need you guys to put in all your effort in this matter, so you guys have to give the work you’re doing to your subordinates these past few days.” Said Gaoleng solemnly.
“What important project?” Jian Xiaodan and Old Diao spoke in unison.
“F*ck! Are you excited to play again?” Fatty sat down on Gaoleng’s table.
“Yesterday, I went to President Su’s place. I just came from her this morning, and we had a deal. I got 200 million yuan, and the money will come right away. Specifically…”
“F*ck!” Before Gaoleng could finish his sentence, the fat man knelt down on the table and said, “You slept with Su Su?! I’ll give you two hundred million yuan for a night’s sleep! F*ck! You work so well!”
A mouthful of excited saliva sprayed out of Gaoleng’s face.
