Gu Xixi: ?

"Hey, you're so busy every day, and you have to sell so many things. It must be exhausting. How about I become your agent or assistant? You can give me a share of the profits from the sales."

Chen Yu started the car and began to explain, afraid that Gu Xixi would not agree.

"The commission won't be much, just one percent will do. It's my brother's auction house. When you use it, I can help you negotiate prices and get discounts. I can also be your driver 24/7, a multi-talented secretary. How about it, are you interested?"

After Chen Yu finished speaking, he observed Gu Xixi's expression in the rearview mirror. He was very confident. He, Chen Yu, was working as someone's assistant and even paying for it himself. Who could refuse?

Gu Xixi was naturally tempted. Chen Yu had a wide social circle, could talk to all sorts of people, was good at business, had a wealthy family, and most importantly, he was the only trustworthy person she knew.

"Then what about your antique shop?" Gu Xixi asked again. She couldn't let Chen Yu give up the antique shop because of her.

"Hey, it's no big deal. I'll just hire two employees for 30,000 a month. I'll handle the bigger issues." Chen Yu said nonchalantly, his brother's company had plenty of talent like that.

But a special kind of lucky charm like Gu Xixi is someone you can only meet once in a lifetime.

"Okay, but you also have a trial period, okay? Let's see if we're a good match. And then there's the most important question: what do you want from me as your assistant?"

It's impossible for a rich young master to become her assistant without some ulterior motive; she may be young, but she's not stupid.

Chen Yu didn't mince words, stating matter-of-factly, "Of course I'm after the treasure you have. You rely on my resources and connections, and I rely on your treasure to further expand my resources and connections. It's a win-win situation, right?"

He chuckled twice, no longer stealing glances at Gu Xixi, looking slightly guilty. Yes, it was actually his father's instruction, because the whole family felt that Gu Xixi was not simple.

He planned to take advantage of his free time to gamble.

Of course, if Gu Xixi isn't as capable as they predicted, they won't do anything to her.

In business, you can make friends all over the world. Being kind to others is the key to long-term success, and planning ahead is essential to seizing opportunities.

"So, I accept your trial period, but you don't accept me?" Chen Yu asked again, starting to panic. If he was really rejected, he would lose face when he got home.

Gu Xixi nodded, "Okay, let's give it a try."

"Alright, little boss, buckle up, I'm about to accelerate! This is my brand new off-road vehicle, I'll show you the thrill. Don't worry about the antique trunk, I've padded it with foam to secure it. Let's go!"

With a deafening roar, Gu Xixi's face instantly turned sour.

Chen Yu's home is in a villa area in the city center, next to an ancient temple scenic area, and there is also a river. It can be said to be in a superior location, full of the scent of money.

When they arrived, several servants were waiting at the gate. Everyone was smiling, polite, and kind, saying, "Welcome Miss Gu and her friends."

Gu Xixi had never seen such a scene before, and Xu Yi and Zhao Jing, who were used to big occasions, were also a little uncomfortable. Gu Xixi felt safe with them, so she regained her composure in a few seconds.

“Miss Gu, hello, I am Chen Yu’s brother, Chen Mo. We can talk about your pearl in the study first.” Chen Mo, an elite man dressed in a suit and leather shoes, came out from inside.

Compared to a playboy like Chen Yu, he was more like a domineering CEO from a novel, but every look in his eyes seemed to be meaningful, and there was something unfathomable about him, which made Gu Xixi feel that he was not as easy to get along with as Chen Yu.

So she was drawn into the atmosphere and became serious, solemn and cautious as well. "Okay, but my two friends have to come along."

Chen Mo smiled and nodded, "Of course, they need to protect you, so naturally they have to come along."

Gu Xixi glanced at him; he had actually noticed. Chen Mo raised his hand, "Please!"

Gu Xixi followed, and Chen Yu followed as well, comforting her from the side, "Don't be afraid of my brother. He just has a poker face and pretends to be deep. Actually, he's a repressed weirdo and occasionally acts like a chuunibyou."

"Ahem." Chen Mo reminded him, giving him a piercing look. Chen Yu pouted and stopped talking, but rolled his eyes as well.

What are you pretending for...

The study was Chen Mo's personal study. As soon as he opened the door, Chen Mo's secretary handed him a tablet. "Boss, the contract is ready."

Chen Mo took it, glanced at it quickly, then led everyone to their seats. The secretary poured water for everyone, and Chen Mo handed the tablet to Gu Xixi.

"Ms. Gu, please take a look and see if there's anything that needs to be changed. If you're not comfortable with it, you can have a lawyer review it for you now and get back to me within three days."

[System, can you provide contract verification? After all, this is a crucial part of interdimensional cross-world transactions, shouldn't you also... um?]

Gu Xixi made it clear that she trusted the system the most. If such an amazing system had this function, it would naturally be more reliable than a person.

"Sure, 1000 yuan per time!" The Multiverse Trading System demanded money immediately, and Gu Xixi, now wealthy and unconcerned, readily agreed, saying magnanimously, "[Whoosh!]"

[Please review the contract quickly. The system will begin data entry and testing.]

Gu Xixi obeyed and did as she was told. No wonder they said her eyes were its eyes. Sure enough, the contract was only seven or eight pages long, and everything was agreed upon in great detail.

Gu Xixi only skimmed through it once, and her scalp tingled.

After another ten seconds, the system provided feedback: [Please rest assured, host. This contract has been compared with all similar cooperation contracts on Earth, analyzed in light of your own situation, and reviewed with domestic laws on Earth. There are no issues; it can be signed.]

[Friendly reminder: The auction house commission for your pearls is 50% lower than the market price; this should be a friendly price.]

Did Chen Yu win over his brother so quickly?

Gu Xixi looked at Chen Yu, who was also looking at her. So he immediately touched his face and asked, "What's wrong? Are you captivated by my good looks?"

"No, I'm just grateful to have you as a friend, but I'm afraid Mr. Chen will have to spend money on this." After Gu Xixi finished speaking, Chen Yu was surprised, "You understood the contract?"

Sometimes he even falls into his brother's trap.

Xu Yi and Zhao Jing were a little nervous, but they also took a look. Chen Mo smiled faintly, playing with the teacup in his hands, looking somewhat nonchalant.

“Miss Gu is smarter than I thought. If it’s alright, let’s sign it and I’ll arrange for the auction to be scheduled immediately.”

"Okay, I have no problem with that." Gu Xixi signed immediately, and Chen Mo stamped the company seal right away. Then he took the pearls out of the box, had them appraised, accepted the goods, and left satisfied.

As soon as Chen Mo stepped out, Professor Wang and Old Xu arrived outside the door, especially Old Xu, who was slapping his thigh in frustration.

“I knew the eldest son of the Chen family was cunning and must have intercepted them. Look, they’ve finished talking. Gu Xixi, come on, come with us now.”
