Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 429 is so tragic, it's a wife-chasing crematorium 18

The afternoon lecture proceeded as scheduled.

Zhao Wutong's college was assigned a seat directly facing the podium.

The lecture was very inspiring.

Everyone was excited to see such an outstanding senior share his experience.

Gu Xingze also recounted the assistance agreement signed between the Gu Group and the school.

In the future, there will be a series of activities to help students succeed and promote employment.

Everyone is welcome to participate.

Before leaving, Gu Xingze nodded in the direction of Zhao Wutong.

Zhao Wutong felt that Gu Xingze seemed to be greeting her.

Gu Xingze really did everything he said at the dinner table.

The document was completed in a very short time.

Gu Xingze was genuinely willing to contribute her own strength to help students who were facing similar difficulties as she had before.

After Gu Xingze left, he sent a message to Zhao Wutong.

I'm grateful to her for offering so many helpful ideas.

Zhao Wutong stated that she was merely recounting her previous part-time job experiences.

These were activities that Gu Xingze himself extracted and proposed from his part-time job experiences.

Gu Xingze said he had no experience with these activities.

When organizing events later, Zhao Wutong will need to help us figure out the specifics of how to organize them so that the students can benefit the most.

Zhao Wutong readily agreed.

Because I attended a lecture in the afternoon, my afternoon class was moved to the evening.

There's an early morning class at 8 a.m. the next day.

Zhao Wutong stayed in the dormitory that night and did not rush home.

Although the school is very close to home, it still takes at least half an hour to get there.

You have to get up early in the morning and rush to get somewhere.

After class in the evening, Zhao Wutong video chatted with her mother.

Zhao Wutong told her mother that the Gu Group came to the school to recruit interns today.

There was also a lecture by General Manager Gu, and financial aid for students in need.

As for the rest, Zhao Wutong didn't mention the things Gu Xingze had privately messaged her about.

In the dormitory, with people coming and going, Zhao Wutong felt it was difficult to say anything about such things.

Even if others hear about it, they won't believe it. Mr. Gu should add her contact information.

It might even cause some trouble.

Jiang He showed Zhao Wutong the clothes she had bought that day.

Zhao Wutong praised it as beautiful.

Zhao Wutong genuinely thought it was beautiful.

Her mother has decent taste.

This condition did not exist before.

Looking at it this way, Mom's choice of colors and styles is quite good.

Zhao Wutong noticed that her mother wasn't wearing a jade bracelet.

I thought Mom had taken it off again after she got home.

I didn't ask any more questions.

The two chatted for a while and then hung up.

Zhao Wutong did not mention her affair with Gu Xingze.

Jiang He didn't tell Zhao Wutong what she did today.

Where did her jade bracelet go again?

Let Zhao Wutong uncover some things later.

Jiang He didn't intend to interfere too much in the matter between Zhao Wutong and Gu Xingze.

The plot-driven deaths in this world are a bit too frequent.

She faces two more life-threatening plot-induced deaths later on.

If she interferes too much.

This plot twist might happen sooner than expected.

Anyway, the romantic relationship between Zhao Wutong and Gu Xingze developed very slowly in the beginning.

She didn't need to be overly vigilant and completely sever the relationship between Zhao Wutong and Gu Xingze.

There's no plot development between the male and female leads, so the plot doesn't progress.

Jiang He suspected that her first plot-driven death was staged ahead of schedule because she suddenly changed Zhao Wutong's family situation.

If Zhao Wutong no longer needs to work part-time at the bar, then wouldn't the first meeting between the male and female leads have been completely ruined?

She thought she might as well use this time to start a business.

The Gu Group is quite large.

It is a behemoth in City A.

Moreover, it involves all aspects of the industry.

Bringing down the Gu Group won't be that easy.

Jiang He needs to first establish his business empire to be on par with the Gu Group before he can defeat the Gu Group.

The Gu Group is Gu Xingze's biggest backer.

The Gu Group collapsed.

The male lead has lost his CEO status.

Then his luck has been almost completely exhausted.

The intelligent robots arranged by Jiang He have already begun to make a name for themselves in the jade industry.

The goods shipped out were all in good condition.

And it's 100% guaranteed to turn green.

He also has several pieces of extremely valuable raw materials, which have attracted many people to come and bid for them.

Jiang He's true identity is revealed here.

A rural woman was asked to start a business.

Becoming a successful person is somewhat difficult.

Moreover, there are some things that are difficult to explain to Zhao Wutong.

Zhao Wutong is the female protagonist of this world.

Although her luck is not as good as the male lead's.

But there's also a bit of luck involved.

If the female lead also has doubts and denies about her.

Then the negative buffs on her will be doubled, and she will really be defeated by the plot.

Therefore, Jiang He maintains her persona of knowing nothing in this world.

She was a rural woman her whole life.

Everything else is done as an intelligent robot.

She was just an old lady who had a bit of luck, and good deeds were rewarded.

Because of her helpful nature, she unexpectedly helped some benefactors, which brought her some unexpected gains.

This will help their family move from a relatively difficult situation to a moderately prosperous level, and then to a level where they can enjoy life.

The bracelet went missing today, and there's a story behind it.

Ultimately, this story will bring her another sum of money.

Jiang He's goal is to increase the family's publicly known assets to 100 million yuan.

Even if Zhao Wutong deposited this money in the bank to earn interest, the interest would be enough to cover her expenses.

Of course, if it's the kind of unrestrained high consumption, then no matter how many hundreds of millions there are, it's only a matter of time before they're all gone.

While Jiang He was diligently working on his career.

Zhao Wutong's relationship with Gu Xingze is progressing slowly but steadily.

The day after his speech, Gu Xingze invited Zhao Wutong to dinner.

He said it was to apologize for not letting her have a proper meal the day before.

Zhao Wutong naturally declined.

Although Zhao Wutong now realizes that President Gu cares about his juniors.

But who is President Gu? He's the CEO.

She's just an ordinary person; how could she possibly have dinner with a CEO?

Zhao Wutong felt she had gone too far by asking the CEO to treat her to a lavish meal.

Mr. Gu doesn't owe her anything, so why should he treat her to a meal?

She couldn't treat President Gu like a sucker.

Even if she and President Gu split the bill, that won't work.

The dinners that President Gu and she dine at are not on the same level at all.

She couldn't even imagine the restaurant where President Gu ate.

One meal there cost as much as her monthly living expenses.

It's probably not just that.

This meal is too expensive.

If you ask her to treat you, that's even more unacceptable.

She was reluctant to spend money.

Although Zhao Wutong currently has over two million yuan in his account.

But I've been used to being frugal since I was a child.

I will still subconsciously try to save money.

I absolutely will not spend money on anything that is not necessary.

Having some savings is always a good way to prepare for the future.

Just because you have some money doesn't mean you should start spending it recklessly.

Gu Xingze was not discouraged by Zhao Wutong's rejection.

They continued to invite Zhao Wutong.

This time, they used a different reason.

Gu Xingze explained that he didn't just ask her out for a meal; he wanted to ask Zhao Wutong for help with something.

However, directly telling Zhao Wutong would be too much trouble, since Zhao Wutong is usually very busy with classes.

That's why he thought of inviting Zhao Wutong to dinner and mentioning that matter to her.

Zhao Wutong asked what the matter was.

Gu Xingze said that this matter was rather complicated to explain and could not be explained in a few words, so it would be better to talk about it face to face.

In the end, Zhao Wutong agreed to go out to dinner with Gu Xingze.

Gu Xingze booked the restaurant at the shopping mall near the school.

That place is closer to the school, so Zhao Wutong doesn't need to rush.

Moreover, the restaurants in that shopping mall were relatively mainstream.

There aren't any very expensive restaurants.

At most, it costs a few hundred yuan per person.

Zhao Wutong could accept this price.

Gu Xingze asked Zhao Wutong to choose a restaurant.

Zhao Wutong is more familiar with that area.

They have hot pot, barbecue, steak, and grilled fish over there.

These are all popular choices.

However, those places are usually quite noisy.

Gu Xingze wanted to talk to her, so he decided to choose a quieter place.

Zhao Wutong chose a chain restaurant.

It contains local home-style dishes.

There are ordinary home-style dishes, as well as some more unusual ones.

Gu Xingze also thought the restaurant Zhao Wutong had chosen was very good.

Gu Xingze wanted to go to the school to pick up Zhao Wutong.

However, Zhao Wutong felt that Gu Xingze was really famous at school.

If Gu Xingze showed up at school, she even got into his car.

It's definitely going to be posted online.

Zhao Wutong didn't want to become the subject of gossip during after-school hours or meals.

Moreover, many people around her might come and ask her how she met President Gu, what her relationship with President Gu was, what they were doing, and a whole bunch of questions would follow her.

Just thinking about that scene terrified Zhao Wutong.

What's even more terrifying is that if she doesn't answer, she'll be gossiped about; if she does answer, others might not believe her and will continue to gossip.

Zhao Wutong declined Gu Xingze's offer.

The shopping mall isn't far from the school, so she can go there by herself.

They should just meet at the restaurant.

Gu Xingze agreed.

Zhao Wutong is indeed quite different.

If it were anyone else, he would definitely agree to have dinner with them immediately.

Having him pick someone up from school would attract a lot of attention.

The way she rejected him was just like Ling Hua.

At first, Linghua also refused to walk with him on campus.

Saying that you'd go with him would attract too much attention; everyone would be watching them.

When other girls confessed their feelings to him and gave him love letters, Zhang Linghua would hide in the crowd and secretly laugh.

He was playing basketball on the basketball court, and it was only after he begged Zhang Linghua several times that she agreed to watch him play.

Other girls came to bring him water, but Zhang Linghua remained calm and unhurried.

She's so naughty.

If someone hadn't confessed their feelings to Zhang Linghua later, and he hadn't stepped forward to reveal that he was her boyfriend, their relationship might never have been announced to the world.

They are a real couple, so why should they keep a low profile? They deserve to be in the spotlight.

Zhao Wutong now really resembles Zhang Linghua back then.

If she weren't like that, Gu Xingze wouldn't have spent so much time and energy on her.

It was precisely because of her resemblance—both in appearance and personality—that Gu Xingze was attracted to her.

That's what makes a qualified stand-in.

Gu Xingze told Zhao Wutong that he had made a reservation at the restaurant, and Zhao Wutong could just come over.

After class, Zhao Wutong went straight to the mall.

Tell the waiter you've made a reservation, and the waiter will lead you inside.

Gu Xingze reserved a private room.

Zhao Wutong can understand.

Although it's quiet outside, and the tables are separated by artificial hills, streams, and plants, it's still inside a large hall.

Gu Xingze might not be used to eating in the lobby.

This is a private room for ten people.

Gu Xingze beckoned Zhao Wutong to sit next to him.

Zhao Wutong walked over.

Although it's a table for ten people, all the other chairs have been removed, leaving only two chairs.

One was the one Gu Xingze was sitting on, and the other was next to Gu Xingze.

Fortunately, there was still some distance between the two seats.

This distance is still acceptable to Zhao Wutong.

"This way it's easier for us to talk. If you were sitting across from me, I'm afraid I'd have to shout at you."

Gu Xingze's words explained the seating arrangement.

Zhao Wutong thought it was very reasonable.

"I've already ordered some dishes. Take a look and see if there's anything you like, then order some more."

Zhao Wutong looked at the list, which already contained ten dishes.

"There are already ten dishes, which is a lot. The two of us can't finish them all, so we don't need to order any more."

"Okay, let's eat first, and we can add more if we're still hungry."

As they were talking, the dishes started to arrive one after another.

Sweet and sour pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, Kung Pao chicken, steamed sea bass, garlic vermicelli shrimp, three-delicacy soup, pearl meatballs, blanched lettuce, shrimp cakes, and ice cream.

To prevent the ice cream from melting, an ice box was prepared.

This is what Gu Xingze told me.

Once Zhao Wutong arrived, they prepared to serve the dishes.

When serving dishes, bring all the dishes at once.

Don't keep going in and out in the middle.

The waiter can only come in after they have finished eating, or after he calls for one.

So ice cream, which is served as dessert, was also brought out directly.

To prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly, the waiters even prepared ice boxes.

Seeing the dishes, Zhao Wutong breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Xingze's way of ordering food is quite down-to-earth.

These dishes are inexpensive and are available in many schools.

However, the plating here is more refined.

Moreover, Zhao Wutong also quite likes to eat these dishes.

It looks so appetizing.

Moreover, she could afford to treat Gu Xingze to such a meal.

No pressure.

"How are the dishes? Do they suit your taste?"

"Mr. Gu, I really like all these dishes."

"That's good. I just ordered a few dishes according to my own taste. I'm glad you like them."

Gu Xingze was happy to hear Zhao Wutong say she liked him.

Very good, the taste is also very similar to Linghua.

These are all dishes she likes to eat.

Linghua loves ice cream the most.

Sometimes I just eat ice cream and don't eat a proper meal.

Once, she even had to go to the hospital because she ate too much ice cream and had a stomachache.

After that, he forbade her from eating ice cream anymore.

If you want to eat ice cream, you need to eat more rice.

"Mr. Gu, what was that you mentioned before?"

"Don't rush, eat first, these dishes won't taste good if they get cold."

"Only when your stomach is full can your brain start to function."

Gu Xingze picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork for Zhao Wutong.

Gu Xingze used serving chopsticks, so Zhao Wutong accepted it.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu. Then I won't stand on ceremony."
