325: What do you want to do?
Su Yue remained very calm about this, as he was quite adept at handling such matters; no one could have handled it better than he did.
But the calmer Su Yue appeared, the more resentful Guan Shan felt inside; he thought Su Yue looked down on him, and he also held many of his secrets.
Nobody wanted to be in such a state of unease.
Guan Shan looked very anxious.
"What do you want?"
Finally, Guan Shan couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up.
Su Yue was indeed unhurried; he sat leisurely on the sofa, even crossing his legs, clearly showing no fear.
"Actually, in the end, it still depends on your sincerity, General Guan."
If he could, Su Yue would definitely light a cigarette right now; who could be more arrogant than him?
Guan Shan was somewhat puzzled; although this young man seemed a bit unfamiliar, his background must be significant, certainly backed by a powerful figure.
If he accidentally said something wrong, the trouble it would bring him was unknown; who would want that?
"Hahaha, we are all businessmen, so we certainly don't want to beat around the bush like this. I'll offer this amount."
Guan Shan held up three fingers.
"Three hundred thousand?"
Su Yue inquired.
"No, that's too little, and your sincerity isn't enough."
Guan Shan's face instantly turned cold; who would have thought he would ask for such an exorbitant amount?
"Add another zero," Guan Shan said.
This was his biggest concession.
"I'm afraid that's not enough either."
Guan Shan's eyes widened.
"What are you saying? You come out of nowhere saying you want my assets, and this isn't enough? What else do you want?"
Guan Shan couldn't sit still in his chair and immediately stood up.
He could only feel this inexplicable anger.
"Don't ask for too much."
Su Yue was not affected by the tense atmosphere; he remained very calm.
Even without Yuantu Investment behind him, Su Yue's own strength was sufficient; he didn't need external support, as his own power could block everything.
He just didn't expect that this Guan Shan would be so pushy; he still didn't know what position he was in.
It was truly unbelievable that he dared to challenge him.
Su Yue stood up and stood in front of Guan Shan.
He was taller than Guan Shan; Guan Shan's head only reached his shoulder.
Therefore, some degree of nervousness was present in Guan Shan.
Su Yue appeared very relaxed.
"Wishing House, isn't it a bit exaggerated how much you control? You must have put in a lot of effort."
Su Yue stated his words directly.
"The effort you've put in over the years, you must have also harmed the interests of many others, right? Don't you feel any guilt about those who lost their homes and families?"
After Su Yue said these words, Guan Shan's face turned pale.
When Guan Shan did these things back then, he was clearly watertight; no one knew he was doing this.
Even if someone knew, they shouldn't be in this world now.
This young man in front of him was truly too strange and made one feel afraid.
It was truly incredible.
"You don't need to be too nervous. Just remove the shady dealings on Yuantu Investment and give up the Wishing House. These two things shouldn't be very difficult for you, right?"
Su Yue looked down at Guan Shan and said, his eyes filled with ambition.
Su Yue wanted to get the Wishing House.
"You would even think of something like that? Aren't you afraid of facing great retribution?"
"The things you've done over the years, the retribution has already returned to you. You don't need to worry about anything else happening."
"You, you, you."
Guan Shan was so angry he couldn't speak.
"It's because you've done too many bad things and tampered with the accounts at Yuantu Investment. Otherwise, it wouldn't have come to this. Just take care of yourself."
Su Yue said.
"I won't just give up the Wishing House like this, but I can let go of the matters concerning Yuantu Investment. However, other things are not negotiable."
This was Guan Shan's final concession.
"I'm afraid that's not up to you."
Guan Shan suddenly lost strength and sat down on the chair with a loud thud. He didn't know why Su Yue knew so many secrets, or what he knew.
"My time is very precious. Today, I'm just notifying you; otherwise, your remaining life won't be very pleasant. You've only seen the beautiful scenery of the Wishing House, but do you feel that your body is deteriorating, and weakness often occurs?"
Su Yue said, staring into Guan Shan's eyes, making him feel pressured.
What Su Yue said was true; these were things Guan Shan himself knew.
"If you don't intervene further, the subsequent events might take your life. Do you believe me?"
Su Yue threatened, seemingly casually.
"I know, I will do as you say."
Guan Shan agreed to the unreasonable demand.
What did it matter how much money he had? He didn't even have a healthy body now; he was truly afraid.
Just a few words from Su Yue had made him feel scared; this person was truly too formidable.
This time, Su Yue accomplished this matter without expending a single soldier or general, which was truly astonishing.
Who would have thought that the final outcome would be like this?
Su Yue left the opulent office, walked through the crowd at the Wishing House, and found himself feeling much lighter.
He was so happy to have strength; no one could stop him.
After Su Yue returned to the company this time, Guan Shan had already handled the matter, and the company's issue was resolved so simply.
It was truly astonishing.
Even Lan Zijun felt it was magical.
"Su Yue, you are truly amazing. I can't even imagine that you solved it with such a simple matter. We really can't do without you. Don't worry, your bonus won't be small."
For the first time, Lan Zijun didn't maintain her usual image and was so happy that she wanted to open her arms to hug Su Yue.
But then she remembered their respective statuses and pulled her arms back.
"Lan Ziju, this is what I should do. Don't worry, I will definitely handle these matters well."
"Okay, with you here, I'm relieved."
Unconsciously, Su Yue's importance in Lan Zijun's heart grew.
Their relationship also became closer.
These things were inseparable from Su Yue's efforts.

"Lan Ziju, if there's nothing else later, I'll go handle some matters."
"Wait, are you busy tonight?"
Lan Zijun asked shyly, as if there was something difficult to say.
Su Yue quickly ran through the things in his mind.
"I'm not busy. I have time tonight."
"Then clear your schedule for tonight. We'll meet at the Century Hotel. I'll send the final time to your phone."
"Okay, thank you."
"It's nothing. Go handle your own matters first."
Su Yue was still very happy to be invited on a date by a beauty like Lan Zijun. He hadn't expected Lan Zijun to have such a side.
He was also looking forward to the date tonight.
He wondered what would happen in the end.
Su Yue was quite focused in his professional field of work, and other matters did not shake his will.
Regarding Guan Shan's Wishing House matter, the subsequent arrangements were also progressing further, and Su Yue would soon have it in his hands.
As for how to use it subsequently, he also had his own plans, which would definitely maximize it, and he would also enjoy the maximized benefits.
The evening's arrangements had already been made by Lan Zijun. Su Yue was also a bit uncertain about what would happen next, because Lan Zijun had kept it a secret from him.
He was even looking forward to the subsequent arrangements.
The Century Hotel is located next to the sea, and the restaurant on the top floor offers a view of the seaside night scenery, making it an excellent place to go.
Although it was Su Yue's first time at this place, he didn't feel that his temperament was incompatible with it; on the contrary, it was very fitting, as if he was meant to be there.
Nothing could stop him.
Su Yue's suit fit him very well. The doorman at the entrance politely greeted and assisted Su Yue when he saw him.
"Do you have a reservation?"
"I was arranged by Ms. Lan Zijun."
"Okay, sir, please come this way."
Su Yue looked at the very polite doorman in front of him and felt that the arrangements here were quite comfortable.
After Su Yue reached the top floor, he immediately saw Lan Zijun wearing a red off-the-shoulder dress that perfectly suited her figure; everything was just right.
Her black wavy hair further highlighted Lan Zijun's elegant temperament.
No matter who came, they would be captivated by Lan Zijun's temperament, and Su Yue was no exception; he was also somewhat immersed in it.
Lan Zijun saw Su Yue and smiled, waving at him, "Over here."
Su Yue smiled and nodded, walking over quickly.
"Lan Ziju, you are so beautiful today."
Lan Zijun smiled slightly, "Thank you."
"Is there a special reason for dinner tonight?"
Su Yue went straight to the point, wanting to know Lan Zijun's thoughts.
"I do have my own purpose. Thank you, Su Yue, for being able to resolve today's matter."
"You know, I am your employee, and these are things I should do."
"Actually, you don't know," Lan Zijun said.
Su Yue was a little surprised. Wasn't this something he should do?
"Actually, this matter concerning Guan Shan has bothered me for a long time, and there was no solution. Moreover, this matter has always been a parasite within the Yuantu Group."
Lan Zijun expressed her thoughts.
"Don't laugh at me, I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to handle this matter and that the company I had managed for many years would collapse as a result."
As she spoke, Lan Zijun's eyes turned red.
Su Yue hadn't expected the subsequent events to be like this and was a bit disbelieving. How could such a strong person bear it?
"Don't worry, I will also work hard and won't let you be so sad."
Su Yue said sincerely.
"Thank you, Su Yue."
Lan Zijun was a little moved. She thought Su Yue wouldn't understand why this matter was so important to her, and why she took it so seriously.
For so many years, she had worked hard to study and handle the company's affairs perfectly, without any slack. Even if outsiders didn't understand, as long as she was worthy of the company, it was enough.
However, now that there was someone who could treat her so sincerely, Lan Zijun felt a little touched in her heart.
Lan Zijun herself was also a bit emotional and kept drinking red wine.
Su Yue didn't touch the alcohol.
Although he had a good tolerance for alcohol, he didn't want to take advantage of the situation at this time, and he should be a gentleman. At this time, one of them had to remain sober.
At the same time, he also felt some pity for Lan Zijun in his heart. He didn't know how much effort this strong woman in front of him had put in to reach her current position.
However, from now on, he would also contribute his own strength to the path of struggle.
Lan Zijun couldn't hold her liquor. Although Su Yue also tried to dissuade her, it was of no use.
Soon after, Lan Zijun got drunk.
Su Yue felt a little pity seeing her like this. She truly needed to get some good rest.
Su Yue called the driver and helped Lan Zijun out.
He was worried about her physical condition the whole way. After arranging Lan Zijun properly, Su Yue returned to his own residence.
At this time, it was already late at night.
Presumably, his roommates at home were already fast asleep.
Su Yue quietly returned to his room and immediately collapsed on the sofa, recalling the events of the day.
It was truly fantastical. He hadn't expected to encounter such things today. As his golden finger grew, he found that his ambition also grew.
This Wishing House might be his first step.
As for which direction to go next, he could think about it carefully, after all, each step has its own way of walking.
After the date with Su Yue, Lan Zijun took a long vacation, and Su Yue no longer had to work like a dog at the company.
He could have his own time to do anything.
Regarding his lack of education, he now had ample time to make up for it.
During this period, he applied for a degree at Evergreen University, where he could improve his abilities outside of his working hours.
This would be helpful for his skills, and in such a place where talented people gathered, it was also a good way for him to make connections.
Su Yue had his own logic for the things he did, handling each matter very skillfully.
He had his own plans for everything.
He packed his backpack so that he wouldn't be caught unprepared when attending classes.
When he returned to the classroom, he was still a bit in a daze. After all, he had been away from school for many years, and opportunities like this were very rare.
He hadn't expected to meet an acquaintance as soon as he entered the classroom.
"Su Yue."
Su Yue heard someone calling his name.
"Qiao Ming, long time no see."
Su Yue replied politely.
"I didn't expect you to have changed so little after so many years. You're still as handsome as before."
