The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 63 A Surge in Foundation
Late at night, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

After Gu Heng came out of Tianmu Hot Spring, he sat alone in his car listening to music.

The air after the rain carries the sweet, earthy scent of rising soil, mixed with the crisp, refreshing aroma of crushed grass—a delightful and invigorating experience.

Along the road, the streetlights still shone with a dim yellow glow, which shattered into shimmering gold foil in the puddles, reflecting the bright full moon.

"It seems..."

"Some things are indeed overcomplicated by myself."

As the song ended, Gu Heng let out a soft sigh.

Wang Baoshan's remarks tonight gave Gu Heng a lot of inspiration, but in Gu Heng's view, the core inspiration can be summed up in just four words: play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.

They are clearly economically minded, yet they insist on learning from others who are technically skilled.

Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
Conquering the mind and body—who says the mind has to come first and the body second?

As Wang Baoshan said, it's perfectly acceptable to be physically present but mentally absent.

As long as he could keep Jiang Ruan by his side, Gu Heng was convinced that with his own resources, he could win back Jiang Ruan's heart.

If six months isn't enough, then a year will do.

If one year isn't enough, then two years.

Given enough time, even a stone can be warmed up, right?
After this conversation, Gu Heng had a rough idea of ​​what to do.

Now, all that's missing is the right opportunity.

After figuring things out, Gu Heng felt much better.

He picked up his phone, which he had just placed on the wireless charging pad, opened WeChat, and saw that Liu Nanyi had sent him a message just five minutes earlier.

Upon opening it, all I saw was an emoticon: "┭┮﹏┭┮".

Seeing this, Gu Heng raised an eyebrow slightly: "?"

As soon as Gu Heng replied to the other party, he saw that the chat box almost instantly changed to the words "The other party is typing".

“Since the start of the semester, I have been attending every class on time.”

"I overslept at noon today and missed the afternoon class, and then the teacher took attendance."

"What bad luck!"

Why do we need to take attendance?

What about trust between people?

"What's the difference between keeping students by taking attendance and keeping men by getting pregnant!"

Liu Nanyi's messages came one after another, almost without any pause.

His hand speed is incredibly fast.

When Gu Heng saw the message from Liu Nanyi, especially the last one, he almost spat out his water.

What an incredible connection!

"so……"

"You're up in the middle of the night just complaining to me about this?"

Gu Heng replied to the other party.

"Because the more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the less I can sleep!"

Liu Nanyi still replied instantly.

"What do you want?"

Right after Gu Heng sent the message, Liu Nanyi was silent for about several seconds before replying, "I bought a new pair of black lace stockings yesterday..."

Upon seeing Liu Nanyi's reply, Gu Heng instantly understood what she meant.

I can't sleep at night.

How funny!

Is Gu Heng such a casual person?
Gu Heng sneered inwardly, but his fingers seemed to have a mind of their own, replying, "Inspect the goods first." "Okay!"

Liu Nanyi readily agreed, and immediately a dozen or so high-definition, meticulously edited photos were sent to her.

Today's black lace stockings are in the Japanese Mary Jane style. The ultra-thin fabric wraps around Liu Nanyi's smooth, round, crystal-clear white feet, as well as her slender calves that appear in the photo.

As Gu Heng watched, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Oh shit!"

Gu Heng then turned on his phone's camera and took two photos of his neck from the front and side, before sending them to Liu Nanyi.

"ありがとうございます!"

Liu Nanyi replied instantly, and then sent two more bowing and thanking emojis.

Then, there was no movement.

Gu Heng looked at the chat box between him and Liu Nanyi and found it inexplicably interesting.

He didn't know when his conversations with Liu Nanyi had started to become so abstract.

'What if one day, the two of them meet offline...'

Gu Heng's lips curled up slightly, and a sense of anticipation suddenly arose in his heart.

……

For the next few days, Gu Heng did not contact Jiang Ruan again.

In accordance with the requirements of the challenge task "Refining the Mind and Tempering the Spirit", Gu Heng began to conduct in-depth research on the six major brands under Zhencui Group, with the first stop being Yanronghui.

From front desk reception to kitchen quality control, from financial accounting to supply procurement, from marketing planning to membership management, from food storage to fire safety...

Gu Heng personally experiences every position.

As the assistant to the chairman, Fan Hong naturally stayed by Gu Heng's side throughout the process, providing detailed answers to any questions or uncertainties Gu Heng might have.

During this process, Gu Heng suddenly understood why Brother Tongzi had given him such a challenge.

Sometimes, looking down from above, it truly is a case of clouds obscuring the view.

Only by keeping your feet firmly on the ground can you see more clearly.

Practice is indeed the best teacher.

Hearing something a hundred times is not as good as doing it once.

Meanwhile, while Gu Heng was conducting in-depth research at Yanronghui, he used his free time over two nights to use both the cigar tasting card and the fine wine tasting card.

The effect is exactly the same as that of a tea tasting card.

In the virtual reality of the cigar tasting card, Gu Heng felt like he was a chimney, constantly trying out various cigars from beginning to end.

Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagas, Upmann...

Various brands, various models.

The same goes for the wine tasting cards; he tasted all kinds of alcohol, including baijiu, foreign wine, red wine, sake, and huangjiu.

Every time I get dizzy from drinking, my body will refresh and return to a clear state.

After repeating this hundreds of times, although Gu Heng hadn't tried it in real life yet, he had a vague feeling that his alcohol tolerance had increased significantly compared to before, but he didn't know exactly how much it had increased.

The three appreciation cards greatly enhanced Gu Heng's knowledge and skills.

At the same time, his extensive knowledge and broad vision have made Gu Heng more confident.

Now, Gu Heng is confident that he will no longer feel shy in most social situations.

During this period, although Gu Heng and Luo Xiwen did not meet again, they kept in touch every day.

Currently, the landscape architect that Gu Heng has reselected is redesigning the courtyard of Gu Heng's Yu Cui Yuan villa, and the design will be completed in about ten working days.

Meanwhile, Luo Xiwen hired a professional cleaning company to thoroughly clean Gu Heng's villa in Yu Cui Yuan over the past few days, and also purchased many daily necessities.

In the midst of a busy and fulfilling life, time flies by and it's already mid-September...
