Gentlemen's League

The office landline of the Gentlemen's League rang abruptly, and Vera's husband, Gepu, glanced at the phone a few times.

"Hello?", he raised his eyebrows slightly after a moment, "Is that so, I understand... Of course, I have a social engagement tonight, you know, it's a crucial time..."

After a brief conversation, Mr. Gepu hung up the phone. He pondered for a moment, then withdrew his gaze, glanced at the female secretary, and then looked at the sofa. The female secretary quickly understood Gepu's consideration for her efforts, and walked to the sofa in her bright red high heels.

The Listoan Group is a large company spanning multiple fields, and in Sabine City, it can be regarded as a pillar industry. Therefore, it is natural that the Listoan Group faces an outrageous number of various financial statement problems every cycle.

As an excellent auditing accountant, Gepu plays a very important role. He is not a local; he moved from another place after accepting this job.

Now is the most critical moment in his life. The group company plans to adjust the management, including the finance department.

He has always cooperated very happily with the company's management and senior executives. The deputy general manager of the group company told him that if he could take another step, he could become a partner in the group.

Even the lowest-level partner would be a substantial leap for Gepu's social status. As long as he takes this step steadily, he will be able to achieve a leap from the middle class to the upper class in three to five years.

He does have a social engagement tonight, but this engagement is not what Vera and most people imagine—a social gathering to discuss work in a semi-public setting, but rather involves bribery.

Any growth requires sufficient nourishment behind it. Gepu is well aware of this. He has a direct relationship with these nutrients, these numbers. He knows how to properly fertilize himself.

He walked to the sofa, comforting the secretary while whispering to her about the overtime work for the evening.

More than an hour later, the female secretary had already entered the lounge to rest and conserve her energy for the evening's social engagement. Gepu sprayed some perfume on himself, hesitated for a few seconds, and then picked up the phone.

"It's me, help me investigate my wife and the company she works for. I want all the information about this company, and also, find out what they did tonight..."

After hanging up the phone, a hard-to-describe expression appeared on Gepu's face. He sat halfway on the edge of the desk, looking at the scenery outside the window, and after a while, he turned around and returned to the desk, continuing to bury himself in countless numbers and bills.

Later that evening, Lin Qi and Vera arrived at a supposedly decent restaurant on the edge of City Center.

Decent means that the restaurant's style is not too low, and there is no need to queue. The two found an empty table by the side under the guidance of the waiter, where they could see the scenery on the road at a glance.

As for Richard and the other three, they are just tools who have not even signed an employment contract, so they cannot be considered employees of the company, and naturally will not join this onboarding celebration.

"Ladies first...", the waiter had just handed the menu to Lin Qi, and Lin Qi smiled and looked at Vera. It must be said that his handsomeness, coupled with such a gentlemanly gesture, almost satisfied all women's imagination of the opposite sex.

Whether it was because of the lighting or the weather was gradually getting hotter, Vera's cheeks were a little hot. She took a deep look at Lin Qi and did not object, taking the menu and starting to order.

The menu here is relatively simple, without a lot of fancy things. Usually, there is a color photo of a main course, supplemented by descriptions of various appetizers and side dishes. If there are any adjustments that need to be made, you can state them to the waiter.

Vera quickly made a decision. She ordered a fish steak, while Lin Qi casually ordered a beef steak and also ordered a bottle of red wine.

While waiting for the meal, the atmosphere between the two seemed a little awkward. Vera wanted to avoid communicating with Lin Qi, while Lin Qi looked at her, which made her even more embarrassed, so she had to say something.

After thinking for a while, she said, "How did you think of doing this business?", she added, "I never thought that the exchange of change could also generate profits!"

Throughout the day, she registered more than 30,000 yuan in change and watched these change turn back into whole bills in a short period of time. She actually realized that Lin Qi's business may not be completely in compliance with the rules, but it is not necessarily illegal.

There is no coercion or inducement, anyone can come to exchange change, and even on the Great Empire company registration certificate, it specifically states "change exchange business".

If the Social Services Bureau recognizes it as a business, then it is legal. Lin Qi successfully exploited a loophole in the law.

He shrugged his shoulders casually, "Look, we are a service company. As long as there is demand and a market, we provide services. We don't do illegal things, we don't evade taxes, we don't discuss those potentially divisive issues. This business is actually very good."

What he said made sense. Vera just wanted to say something to ease the subtle embarrassment, but at this time, she felt that Lin Qi was a very special person.

Smart ideas, accurate positioning, excellent thinking ability, and attitude towards some things, he is completely unlike a young man who has just entered society after graduating from high school.

Before the age of thirty, or before being severely hurt by a few scumbags, women mostly consider men's appearance and figure when choosing them.

But only after the baptism of time washes away the frivolity, only after a deeper understanding of this world, will they be fascinated by a man's talent and his temperament.

Lin Qi is undoubtedly a talented, charismatic, and handsome young man, meeting all the contemporary woman's aspirations for the best partner.

In just one day, Lin Qi earned more than two thousand yuan. This is just a company with a registered capital of one hundred yuan. On the first day of official operation, it created more than twenty times the company's assets in net profit. This kind of profit speed is simply terrifying! What made Vera's heart beat faster was Lin Qi's fiery eyes, humorous conversation, and aggressive attitude, which always made her heart race.

"Actually, you have a great figure...", Lin Qi's words surprised Vera, as he looked at the plate the waiter had just brought up, and the grilled fish fillets inside.

Most people take steak as the main meal, partly because people's eating habits have been like this from the beginning, and partly because steak is easier to obtain.

Fish steak is not acceptable, it is not a traditional food, and Sabine City is far from the coast.

The popularity of fish steak in recent years is related to some nutritionists, who believe that using fish steak is healthier, has lower fat content, and is more suitable for people who need to maintain or lose weight.

As for whether what they say is right or wrong, that is a matter for professionals. Lin Qi just thinks that Vera has a great figure, and he can't see any excess fat at all.

She touched her cheek, a little shy, "Really...", and then fell silent again.

The topic then returned to some work and social anecdotes, and the feeling between the two became more and more harmonious. At this moment, Lin Qi unexpectedly discovered the Newspaper Boss.

He sneaked into an alley not far away, his face a little gloomy.

Of course, this little episode will not spoil the atmosphere at this time. In a friendly atmosphere, the two ended the celebration of the job, and Lin Qi also sent Vera home. Along the way, he was like a gentleman, without any excessive movements.
