LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 134: Has Gu Heng Become So Influential Now?
"How's it going? Added a few?"
Li Haibin had been chatting with a few internet-famous girls for several minutes until they left, and then Gu Heng walked up to him with a smile and asked.
"Added them all."
Upon hearing this, Gu Heng raised his eyebrow, "Added them all? Can you handle it? These women are fierce enough to eat you alive and not leave any bones."
At this, Li Haibin gave a bitter smile and said, "But I haven't agreed yet, I'm planning to reject them all later."
"?"
Seeing the puzzled look on Gu Heng's face, Li Haibin continued with self-mockery, "These girls aren't really here for me, they're here for your Bugatti. Frankly, it's your contact they actually want to add. I might be able to deceive them for a while, but could I do that forever? They'll eventually realize I'm just a nobody, and I can't bring myself to deceive them just for a fling."
"Stop being so melodramatic!"
Gu Heng frowned and cursed without hesitation after hearing this.
Li Haibin, who was scolded, didn't get angry but just chuckled naively.
Unlike Gu Heng, who naturally lacked a sense of morality and was a scoundrel, his childhood friends, whether it was Li Haibin, Li Feng, or Song Hua, were all decent men.
They could spend some money to find a bit of fun while being single, but seducing women falsely was something none of them could do.
But that's normal...
If they could do such a thing as deception for flings, they wouldn't be simps anymore.
"Actually, I understand what you mean."
"So what do you think I mean?"
Li Haibin turned around to glance at Wang Lulu, who was still inside the shop, and smiled, "You're trying to tell me, as long as I have money, I won't need to simp, and countless girls will throw themselves at me, right?"
It seemed his childhood friend hadn't completely lost his mind and could understand his painstaking effort.
"Rest assured, I won't simp anymore in the future, I'll earn good money! Let her simp for me!"
Listening to the first part, Gu Heng was quite relieved...
Song Hua's scolding was not in vain...
But upon hearing the latter part, Gu Heng's blood pressure shot up, and he restrained the urge to slap him.
"Is that all you aspire to? With money, what kind of woman can't you find? Why hang yourself on a crooked tree?"
Upon hearing Gu Heng's rant, Li Haibin responded somewhat aggrievedly, "But I'm not you. You're rich and drive multimillion-dollar sports cars, of course a bunch of beauties will flatter you. You could have a different one every day.
But I'm different. I'm just a factory worker screwing in bolts, at most, I could become a line leader or team leader. Even if I work 24 hours a day and earn double the salary, those women from earlier wouldn't spare me a glance.
And I've already spent over a hundred thousand on Wang Lulu. A hundred thousand might not be much for you, but for me, that's two years of savings without spending on anything else. Having invested so much, how can I not hang onto a crooked neck tree? Should I just let that money go to waste?"
Gu Heng suddenly fell silent...
He had always considered issues from his perspective, ignoring the reality...
Why do most simps die hanging on one tree? Is it because they don't want a harem?
The answer is definitely no...
It's not that they don't want to; they have no other choice...
On one hand, their own attributes are already poor, but they are not willing to settle for an ordinary partner for life. They aim for a better half who is superior, and from the start, their status is not equal, making it only natural to become a simp...
On the other hand, it's the sunk cost.
Just like Li Haibin, who had already spent over a hundred thousand on Wang Lulu. If he stops now, wouldn't that money be completely wasted?
For someone who works in a factory, how many hundred thousands does he have to squander in his lifetime?
On thinking this, Gu Heng's voice also became deeper, "Then based on your job screwing bolts in a factory, how much money can you earn in your lifetime? Even if you get promoted later to line leader or team leader, your salary will barely pass ten thousand a month, right? What makes you think she would turn around and simp for you?"
Li Haibin gave a smile, a smile full of helplessness.
"If there's really no way out, I'll just go on blind dates and find an average woman to live with for a lifetime, right? It's not just my life that's like this, isn't everyone the same? Ordinary people have their own way of living."
"Satisfied?"
"Give me a cigarette." After getting a cigarette from Gu Heng and lighting it with a one-dollar lighter, he continued indifferently, "Who's satisfied? If you don't believe me, ask these workers on the street. Who doesn't want to drive sports cars and live in mansions like you?
Being satisfied is one thing, having the capacity to change is another."
"To be frank, how many people in this world can be like you, Hengzi?"
After taking a deep breath, Gu Heng finally made a decision and slowly said, "You and Xiaohua should quit your jobs."
Song Hua, who had been standing nearby listening to their conversation, suddenly turned his head towards Gu Heng, filled with question marks.
"I've come to Yangcheng City because I have a long-term project to work on, and the project is worth several billion, maybe even more."
"By then, I'll have you, Xiaohua, and Fengzi all involved in this project. I don't know how much money you'll make, but it will certainly be more than what you're earning now."
Enjoy new adventures from empire
Li Haibin: "???"
Song Hua: "???"
Upon hearing Gu Heng mention this, both men shivered, then stared at him incredulously.
"What are you staring at me for? Not willing?"
Realizing what was said, the two quickly shook their heads like rattle drums, saying in unison, "Willing! Willing!"
Only a fool would be unwilling...
How many people in this world are longing for someone to give them a lift?
Undoubtedly, Gu Heng was now their benefactor.
Who would want to stay in a factory bolting screws when they have the chance to make big money?
