Chapter 1340: Bring the Contract

~7 min read 1,260 words

"Bring it here." President Xu waved his hand directly.

"The Contract, bring it over quickly." Chen Yu hurriedly signaled to Liu Ruxi at the side.

Liu Ruxi hurriedly brought the Contract over and handed over a pen.

President Xu made a grand stroke, signed his name directly, then took a seal out of his briefcase at the side and stamped it directly on.

Only then did Liu Ruxi heave a sigh of relief; this cooperation was a great success, and this wave could be considered perfectly completed.

Just at this moment, President Xu's assistant hurried over.

"Your President Xu has drunk too much; you take him back," Chen Yu turned his head and said to the assistant.

The assistant looked at the two-hundred-plus-pound fat man, helplessly called over a few more people, and only then did they lift President Xu and carry him down.

"Chen Yu, so negotiating a Contract can be done like this; I've really gained some insight this time." Looking at the time, it was already one in the morning, and Liu Ruxi, who was heading back, didn't have a shred of sleepiness.

She said excitedly: "In the past, I had never negotiated like this; at most, we would drink some red wine, and if it worked out, it worked out, and if it didn't, then forget it."

"That's why you have to keep someone in your company who can drink," Chen Yu said. "Not for anything else, just for performance at the wine table, and sometimes a Contract doesn't necessarily have to be negotiated in a high-end restaurant; when the mood strikes, even at a street stall outside, a Contract can be negotiated."

"Alright, I know, I've gained insight." Liu Ruxi nodded incessantly, and she laughed: "This time it's all thanks to you; if you hadn't come, the Contract probably would have been really hard to negotiate."

"So you really do treat me as your lucky charm?" Chen Yu said somewhat helplessly.

"Yes." Liu Ruxi nodded seriously.

"Remember to give me a raise later," Chen Yu said.

"Hey, you, why are you so boring?" Liu Ruxi looked at Chen Yu with some displeasure and said: "How come every sentence can't leave the topic of salary?"

"That's only natural, I'm just a wage earner right now; if I don't rely on my salary to live, what should I rely on?" Chen Yu said.

"Forget it, a Dharma Cultivator like you—I've learned about it these past few days—you guys aren't short of money; as long as you are willing, you can connect with a great family at any time, and you help and benefit each other," Liu Ruxi sighed and said.

"Where did you learn that from?" Chen Yu asked Liu Ruxi, puzzled.

"On the forums; although there is very little about you guys, I can still learn a little bit, more or less," Liu Ruxi said: "You aren't short of money at all."

"I am short..." Chen Yu said with a straight face.

"Alright, drive properly, I won't treat you badly." Liu Ruxi rolled her eyes at him: "By the way, have you considered settling down and taking a wife?"

"No." Chen Yu shook his head.

"You..." Liu Ruxi was choked with anger; she was showing her favor so obviously, could Chen Yu really not know at all?

"Really, I haven't." Chen Yu gave a bitter smile; he had a daughter and had been married, and after Liu Ruxi's affairs were resolved, he would have to go find Tang Yuxin and figure out exactly what she was doing now.

"What is your purpose in coming to my side? Tell me the truth," Liu Ruxi sighed and said: "I don't like living life in such an unclear way, and I don't like having an inexplicable person by my side when I don't even know what he does."

"Am I very happy right now... and very carefree?" Chen Yu paused and asked.

"Not entirely." Liu Ruxi thought for a moment, shook her head and said: "There are still quite a few annoying things at work, and being pestered by some inexplicable men is also quite annoying; if you talk about being carefree, the only ones in this world who can truly be carefree are children, I suppose."

"What you say is true, but the troubles you have now don't count as real troubles," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "If you truly entered the world of Dharma Cultivators, you would discover what kind of world it is."

"In that world, there is no pity, no sympathy; there is only the law of the jungle, and if your strength is slightly weak, you have no way to survive in that world."

"Secular laws cannot restrain the people of that world, I know that," Liu Ruxi said with a complex expression: "But you possess such strong abilities, do you also have things that worry you?"

"Yes. Actually, Dharma Cultivators are just a group of people who practice; except for the rare few who can avoid Reincarnation, most people fail to break through their limits and still have to return to the essence of birth, aging, sickness, and death, it's just that their Life spans are far, far greater than ordinary people."

Chen Yu said: "And as long as they are human, there will definitely be desires; when your desires cannot support your ambitions, all problems will erupt, and that is the true root of the problem."

"What do you... pursue? Becoming stronger?" Liu Ruxi asked: "You are already very strong now."

"For example, you are very rich now, but you are still investing non-stop; you pursue more money, why is that?" Chen Yu asked.

"This..." Liu Ruxi was slightly stunned; she couldn't answer this question. Yes, she was already a very wealthy existence now, but she was still investing non-stop and working hard.

She pursued more money, but could she spend all her money? She couldn't...

"People all have desires; after reaching one level, they will strive to pursue another level," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Dharma Cultivators are the same, so the only difference between us and ordinary people is that we are very strong and are not restrained by secular laws."

"But we also have our own desires, and sometimes we also encounter some things that are very hard to understand."

"Alright, then what is your purpose in coming to my side?" Liu Ruxi stared at Chen Yu; she had to know this question, because this question had troubled her for a long time.

"If I said that you are also not an ordinary person, would you believe it?" Chen Yu smiled; she had been pressing him for so long, it was time to let her know a little bit about herself.

"I am not an ordinary person; I have been outstanding since I was a child, and my aunt often said that I could walk and talk very early," Liu Ruxi said with a straight face: "Facts prove that it is indeed like that; I founded such a large company before I even graduated, and it's very successful, you say I could be an ordinary person?"

"That's not what I'm talking about," Chen Yu said somewhat helplessly: "You have had some abilities since you were a child that ordinary people don't have; you know this, right?"

"I know." Liu Ruxi thought for a while before nodding and saying: "Like, for example, you opened my Heavenly Eye; the things I have seen these past few days are actually things I had seen before, but I was too young then and I forgot."
