Chapter 231: The Difference Between Cloud And Mud

In recent days, Fu Xuejun was exceptionally famous in the Imperial Capital. This was especially true in terms of her qualifications and capabilities in her financial talents, which made people sigh with envy when they looked at what she had accomplished at a tender age.

Fu Enterprise’s joint venture plan that was put up really moved the hearts of countless entrepreneurs, and their recruitment of investors and partners attracted a lot of people because of that. But in the end, only three companies were lucky enough to be selected. They were the envy of many others out there.

But less than an hour later, the news about the flaws in the joint venture plan had broken out, and all their plans in this period collapsed one by one. Fu Enterprise’s prestige had immediately fallen to rock bottom.

As soon as the stock market opened at three o’clock in the afternoon, Fu Enterprise’s stock was suspended immediately.

The person that was most shocked was still Fu Xuejun who had been managing Fu Enterprise for the past few days. With all the perfect investment plans and cases that she had been handling, her confidence level had mounted as each one was handled by her. For Fu Enterprise to suddenly have a problem now, was something that was completely unexpected.

All the major investment plans had problems, and they were all discovered at the same time. Fu Xuejun wasn’t too concerned when the news broke out.

At first, she was calm. “What are you panicking for? I’m still here!”

Her recent performance had the people in Fu Enterprise placing their trust in her, and so they too calmed down and felt reassured when they saw her calm state.

The questions came one after another, and Fu Xuejun was buried to her neck at work. It had been smooth sailing the past few days, and she had not needed to mind everything else like this until now. And the more busy she got, the more frazzled she seemed to get, completely unlike the past few days.

Funds problems, financial loopholes... these severe problems existed all these while, but why hadn’t anyone managed to stumble across this problem while the plans were being drawn up?

“Miss! The entire finance department has resigned!”

The Finance Department was well aware of the economic situation of the entire company, and for them to resign like this could only mean one thing—that the company was beyond salvageable. Staying on would be pointless, and they might even have to go through a lawsuit, so it was better to just leave early on.

The news caused Fu Xuejun to tremble, her legs almost unable to hold her up.

She had thought that they were minor problems at first, and was not overly concerned. But she didn’t expect that she didn’t even know where to start for these problems!

Especially the three investors, who were still in the room with her, staring at the look of disbelief on her face. As well as the other employees of the company, who were now looking at her with growing doubts on their faces. Fu Xuejun was going crazy inside, holding her phone as she tried to call Fu Wei. After a few times, the call finally managed to get through.

The loophole in Fu Enterprises’ finance had made the company fall into huge debt in just a day, tethering on a dangerous position. The news caused an uproar in the outside world.

The most unlucky would be the three investors who had just signed the agreement, as their funds had all been given to Fu Enterprise. They had just been dreaming about all the money they would be making from this joint venture, and now their dreams were all shattered. Receiving such a heavy shock, no one could accept it!

“Don’t you think this scene is a bit familiar?” One of the partners suddenly spoke after a long silence.

The second partner nodded his head, and brought up his fingers to count. “Bai Enterprise, the Chen family.” It wasn’t just familiar, it was exactly the same. This kind of decisive blow that could wipe out an established, big company within a few days. Other than Nine Heavens, who else could do this?

Not to mention that in the entire Imperial Capital, the only company who could touch Fu Enterprise was Nine Heavens, who basically sat in the sky.

As expected of Nine Heavens, when they made a move, it was rough, cruel, and completely unforgiving.

This was Fu Enterprise, the one with some mysterious, special forces backing them up!

Nine Heavens was extremely bold indeed!

The third partner was a real estate big shot, and his thoughts were simple at best. His face had paled dramatically, and even his voice was shaking as he said, “This... could it be Nine Heavens?”

“It’s Nine Heavens alright,” The first partner frowned deeply. “Think about Jing Shenyu, doesn’t he have a close financial tyrant who collabs with Nine Heavens?”

“No wonder! Before the bidding started, he had already left. What a sly fox!”

“Gentlemen, Fu Enterprise has a situation, and needs your help.” Once Fu Xuejun had finished her talk with Fu Wei on the phone, she immediately turned to the three partners. She thought that the three of them would agree and give her some face, based on her position.

She didn’t expect the straight out refusal from them, and even requested to break off the contract that they had just signed. “Miss Fu, there are flaws in the plans and you still asked us to invest. You’re a fraud, and if you don’t return the funds to us, we’ll see you in court!”

If Nine Heavens wanted to get rid of Fu Enterprise, how would they still dare to collaborate with them?

At the same time, they looked at Fu Xuejun with sympathy in their eyes.

Fu Xuejun could only watch the three investors walk away, and it seemed like something had been pulled out from her too.

She walked slowly out of Fu Enterprise in a daze, she still didn’t understand, what problems had come from her plans?

How did Fu Enterprise become like this overnight?

A figure suddenly appeared in her line of sight, she was standing in the middle of the square, dressed in plain clothes and looking down at the phone in her hand. Her hair hung around her like a silk curtain, standing under the sun, her beautiful face reflecting the sunlight and a shopping bag in her hand. It was obvious that she had just walked out of the mall, and she looked no different than usual.

How could Fu Xuejun not recognize her? It was Gu Xiqiao.

She was feeling fear and shock, anxiousness, and chaos. Whereas the person that she wanted to get rid of was still leisurely walking around. Gu Xiqiao’s light-hearted attitude lit a fire within Fu Xuejun, and in a flash her anger had reached its boiling point. She took big strides to Gu Xiqiao’s side, her voice pitched high as she said, “Gu Xiqiao, you still have the mood to be shopping?”

Didn’t she know that there was a bloody storm on Weibo?

Brother Jiang, Brother Baili gave me something again today, and it’s quite valuable.

After sending the message, Gu Xiqiao looked up, seeing Fu Xuejun standing in front of her.

Because she had been cultivating her ancient martial arts these few months, and the fact that she had advanced again, she had grown taller. Standing in front of Fu Xuejun, she didn’t need to wear heels to look down on her, and she smiled. “Miss Fu.”

Even though Gu Xiqiao didn’t say anything further, with just the way she acted, Fu Xuejun felt that the other was looking down on her while seated on her high horse. Fu Xuejun took a deep breath, looking at Gu Xiqiao and sneering. “If I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to step out of the house at all!”

The smile on Gu Xiqiao’s face didn’t falter, and the curve of her lips was so perfect. Compared to Gu Xiqiao, Fu Xuejun was like a shrew. The latter’s chest rose and fell heavily after her outburst, glaring at Gu Xiqiao.

Just as she opened her mouth to continue her tirade, her phone rang. “Miss, President Fu has arrived at the company.”

Hearing this, Fu Xuejun ignored Gu Xiqiao, turning around to head back immediately.

Gu Xiqiao stared at her leaving back, her eyes narrowed.

“That was Fu Xuejun?” Luo Wenlang asked as he hurried over, handing a roll of things to Gu Xiqiao. He followed her gaze and saw her retreating back. He wasn’t concerned about her, but since Gu Xiqiao had been paying attention to Fu Enterprise, he had secretly read the information on everyone in Fu Enterprise.

He arrived at a conclusion after that: As expected, if they didn’t do anything, they wouldn’t need to die.

“It was her.” Gu Xiqiao replied lightly, and began leafing through the documents that Luo Wenlang had just given her.

There was nothing that needed attention now on Fu Enterprise, and after looking for a while, Luo Wenlang turned away, looking at her instead. “Boss Gu, why did you suddenly want me to collect news on N City?”

Especially when it concerned the Gu family.

Because the system was in the midst of upgrading, and she had no way of getting news, that was the reason she went to him instead. Of course, it wasn’t like she was going to tell him that.

She cleared her throat. “Didn’t you say that there was a problem with the tourist base last round, let’s focus the next few days on this.”

Hearing those words, Luo Wenlang was grave. He knew that Gu Xiqiao wouldn’t kid about these things. “I will take note of it.”

“That’s it then, I’ll be leaving first.” Gu Xiqiao waved at him, turning around to leave as she had already seen Baili Bin’s car.

“Heyyy, wait a sec!” Luo Wenlang said as he recalled something. “Uncle Mu said that you accepted another interview?”

“What did you think I was doing just now?” Gu Xiqiao replied lazily, giving him a look. “They said it was some live broadcast or something. If you rush back now you might make it to watch the rerun.”

“...” Damn, the entire Imperial Capital was in for an explosion.

Gu XIqiao left with the pile of papers in hand.

Looking down at the phone, Jiang Shuxuan had already sent her a reply. Take it, don’t need to be polite to him about it.

Then she won’t be?

Gu Xiqiao smiled brightly, that speed boat really was a treasure. Although it had no offensive power, its defensive ability was strong and the vessel was fast. It was way better than a plane, and she didn’t have to worry about safety when she sat in it. It was extremely suitable for a person like her!

***

Fu Xuejun returned to Fu Enterprise, and Fu Wei was waiting for her in his office.

“Dad.” Fu Xuejun opened the door, her hands and feet were shaking when she did. She was afraid to see Fu Wei’s angry and disappointed face once again.

After entering, she found that Fu Wei’s face was calm, and he was watching a programme.

“Jun’er, look at this.” Fu Wei didn’t wait for her to say anything, beckoning her to come forward.

Fu Xuejun shuffled forward to his side, looking at what he was pointing at on the screen.

It was an interview that was conducted by National Channel, and it was an interview with the president of Nine Heavens! This was the first time the president of Nine Heavens had shown their face, and the host was vibrating with excitement to express it in words. After saying some incoherent words, the camera then turned to the person who was the president.

Fu Xuejun’s eyes froze, her gaze glued to the screen intently.

The person behind the scene of Nine Heavens had been extremely mysterious, having countless fans and was the idol of countless financial students. There had been so many speculations about the person, saying that the person was a mythical existence that didn’t actually exist, because Nine Heavens was practically a myth by itself.

In a short period of time, Nine Heavens had not only taken a lead in China, but they had also managed to occupy an extremely important position across the world, becoming the economic lifeline internationally. Nine Heavens’ network had spread across the entire globe, and if anything were to happen to Nine Heavens, it would definitely cause financial turbulence in the world.

Fu Xuejun’s capabilities had been unmatched previously, but even she couldn’t help but admire the founder of Nine Heavens, no matter how confident she was in herself. This was especially true after reading the document that Fu Wei had given her, her respect for Nine Heavens had increased yet again.

The mysterious person behind Nine Heavens really was a terrifying legend.

The camera shifted to the founder of Nine Heavens.

Fu Xuejun’s face twisted the second her eyes landed on the person, and she knocked over the tea that the secretary had been pouring for her. “No... impossible, this is fake!”

How could it be Gu Xiqiao’s face! How was that possible?!

Fu Wei only glanced at his daughter, and she knew that she had reacted rudely, sitting down immediately. She turned her attention to the screen once again after taking a deep breath, but her hands and feet were still trembling.

“Excuse me, Miss Gu. You have always turned down interviews, why have you suddenly decided to agree to one?” On screen, the host asked curiously.

Gu Xiqiao’s eyes lowered, and she thought about it for a while before answering, “I used to think it would bring trouble, I still want to study here after all.”

“And now?” The host continued.

“I have to say something serious here, that is, you can’t be too low-key as a person.” Gu Xiqiao, smiling as she looked in the direction of the camera.

Fu Xuejun was completely floored.

She had never placed any significance on Gu Xiqiao, because the other had nothing to her name. She didn’t expect her to turn out to be the founder and president of Nine Heavens!

Thinking about how she was still threatening Gu Xiqiao just yesterday night, and even said she would rid her from the Imperial Capital? Gu Xiqiao must have been laughing at her from the inside, right?

She even had the thought that if she controlled Fu Enterprise, she would be able to have Gu Xiqiao below her feet.

Wanting to compare with her and what she had, those thoughts seemed so ridiculous now!

The other party was the founder of Nine Heavens, the company which had a place firmly etched in the world. Just when she was about to inherit and control Fu Enterprise, Gu Xiqiao had already taken Nine Heavens across the globe!

The gap between them was simply like clouds and mud!

The blood drained from Fu Xuejun’s face, leaving her pale and even more shaky as she sat on the sofa. She had lost... utterly and completely.
