Chapter 47: The Emperor's Decree

  These past few days, every dish you've eaten has been made with ingredients flown in from abroad, carefully selected from the finest foods available. And...

  "That's enough!" Gu Shaocheng's calm voice interrupted them: "Discuss these things among yourselves in private."

  "Yes, yes, yes!" The manager nodded his head.

  Then he smoothed his shirt and continued in a cold tone: "Tonight, I'll call everyone over. There's nothing else to do. My girlfriend has been wronged. What do you think we should do?"

  What? Isn't she a mistress who is being kept?

  Several girls were stunned instantly.

  Then she covered her mouth with her hand, as if in utter disbelief, and widened her eyes.

  Girlfriend?

  Is Ye Chen Xing the girlfriend of this handsome, young and considerate man?

  Good heavens, she's going to faint! How can Ye Chenxing have such good luck? How can anyone have such good luck?

  In an instant, Ye Chen Xing's image in their eyes underwent a huge reversal, from being the universally despised and unwelcome adopted daughter of the Bao family to becoming the envied girlfriend of a big shot.

  Those girls who were previously in the guest room discussing and despising Chen Xing seemed to have been slapped in the face by Gu Shao's one sentence.

  There were also several girls who truly believed in Chen Xing, and they too felt a little stunned, surprised, with some small comfort, some small jealousy, but more... was loving envy.

  "I won't make it difficult for everyone. Based on your performance tonight, those who treat my Chén Xīng well will have all expenses waived and be provided with paid internship opportunities at one of the world's top 500 companies during winter and summer breaks; as for those who don't treat my Chén Xīng well," Gu Shaocheng paused for a moment before suddenly becoming stern: "Kneel down!"

  A single voice like an emperor's wrath, awe-inspiring and beyond words.

  There were several timid ones who, with a single stern look from him, immediately went weak in the knees.

  Of course, there were also some who were bold and didn't move at all.

  Who has no gold under his knees?

  You make me kneel and I'll kneel, what's the reason? Do you think you're an emperor from ancient times, where only one person has the final say in the whole world?

  Wait, paid internship opportunities with one of the world's top 500 companies?

  OMG! What's this man's background?!

  Gu Shaocheng didn't even look at the reactions of those students, turned around, and walked away with elegant steps, as if he was just a paper tiger, scaring them for a moment before leaving.

  However, just as he was about to step out of the gate, a light and airy voice echoed in the hall: "Kneel for one night, or pay for all the expenses yourself! Those who refuse will never be hired by any company after graduation."

  No kneeling, self-service consumption!

  Let you choose yourself.

  But this choice is a choice with absolutely no choice at all.

  You don't have to kneel, wait until you graduate and see which company dares to hire you? Tell me, as long as Gu Shao gives an order, who would dare to employ someone who has offended him? Isn't this asking for trouble?

  A stone causes a thousand ripples!

  You can't let him choose anymore, his words are imperial orders, unless you can mix stronger than him.

  1.19 update ends here, will continue around 9 am tomorrow. As for why Gu Shao is so good to Chen Xing, hehe, everyone guess, just a suspense for now, the truth will be revealed later. By the way, Yuan Yuan is just a subordinate, Gu Shao values her a bit more than usual, but there's no intimate relationship between them. Our Shao is very pure and doesn't mess around with relationships; if he does, he'll take responsibility to the end, like with Chen Xing, hey!
