an hadn't told Zhu Yuyan where she lived, and throughout the journey, he seemed as familiar with the area as she was. She felt something was off but couldn't quite place it.Before she could dwell on i...Tan Rundong's company didn't have enough funds to support him doing two projects simultaneously, so Tan Rundong postponed the opening of the second project by six months. He hoped to recoup funds from the first project and invest them in the second high-end residential complex.
The day after Gu Ruandong returned to Beijing, it was revealed that Tan Rundong's real estate company had failed to deliver the pre-sale funds for their first project to the regulatory authorities.
Now, the relevant authorities have very strict regulations that real estate development enterprises must deposit pre-sale funds into dedicated bank escrow accounts. These funds can only be used for the construction of the specific project and cannot be withdrawn or used arbitrarily.
But now the news has broken that Tan Run-de's dedicated regulatory account shows a balance of zero. His real estate company has been operating behind closed doors, depositing pre-sale funds on the day they were received and withdrawing them the next day.
This means his first real estate project was completely unregulated. If it turned out to be a failure, consumers would face extremely high difficulties in asserting their rights.
Once this news broke, Tan Rundong's real estate company was suspended from sales by the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Bureau. They were ordered to rectify their operations and deposit funds into a designated regulatory account as required. This effectively cut off his funding channels. His second high-end project, which had just been approved but was yet to be developed, could only be indefinitely postponed.
But this was just the first step Gu Ruandong took. Shortly after, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development issued another announcement. The announcement revealed some illegal sales operations by Tan Rundong's real estate company in the past, as well as multiple consumer contract disputes. The official announcement proved fatal to Tan Rundong's real estate company's reputation. Not only could the second project not be smoothly certified, but also for the first project, many homebuyers demanded refunds and hung banners at their sales center.
Tan Run De's anger caused his blood pressure to spike.
I wanted to call Gu Ruandong and just yell at him. Back when I wanted to take him down, I could only whip up public opinion, but I never found any actual evidence of wrongdoing against him.
However, Gu Ruandong wanted to get rid of him, and he wouldn't act rashly. He must have made thorough preparations before striking, removing him completely in a swift, decisive, and merciless manner.
After Tan Rundong finished berating him, Gu Ruandong on the other end of the phone remained completely unmoved. He was dismissive, as he always was—a man of few words who could be deadly without raising a fuss.
Gu Ruan Dong often gives the impression of playing his cards offbeat, effortlessly solving problems with a seemingly light touch. However, behind this facade lies years of meticulously cultivated relationships that enable him to achieve results with apparent ease.
Tan Rundé is insignificant, the issue has been resolved, and he needn't waste any more time on it. Therefore, his focus should be concentrated on solving the funding shortage for the second phase.
He could stay in the capital for three days, so he worked during the day, while Yaoyao filmed. In the evening, the driver took him to the film and television base. The driver drove an ordinary business car because there were too many people at the film and television base, and there were also many media stationed there. If he drove an ordinary sedan, it would be too conspicuous, so he simply changed to a business car, which was a common model for many celebrity stars.
Her assistant was also very careful, avoiding people all the way, and brought him to the room.
The assistant always felt like a pimp or madam, while Gu Ruantong was the top card, waiting in the room for the little princess's summons.
First, this underground relationship made the assistant have such delusions. Second, Gu Ruandong was too handsome, and his handsomeness came from his temperament. That kind of elegant beastly and abstinent temperament was very much like a top card.
when
Of course, thinking of Gu Ruandong as the top card, his assistant would only dare to think secretly in front of him, otherwise he was afraid of being killed by Gu Ruandong. But that didn't stop the assistant from telling Lu Yaoyao about it.
Lu Yao yao laughed: "Do you want to be the head card"
She saw the message from her assistant and laughed out loud, not noticing Gu Ruandong behind her. He came up behind her and also saw the assistant's message, whispering in her ear
"Then are you satisfied with the service I've provided"
Lu YaoYao turned around and hung on him again, without any shyness: "Satisfied Super satisfied!"
not at all hesitant.
Gu Ruandong smiled: "So easily content I can make you even more satisfied."
After that, it's all about action. Putting words into practice!
Lu YaoYao was naturally very pleased, so much so that during the three days Gu Ruan came to visit, her smile never left her face. She usually felt uncomfortable around Xu Zhao, but now she found him agreeable, even going as far as greeting him proactively when they met in the hotel elevator.
She acted out of character, suddenly being overly enthusiastic. Xu Zhao found this a little strange and gave her a curious look:
"What's so happy Is it finally wrapping up"
"Yes, it's almost wrapped."
Xu Zhao said, "It's definitely worth being happy about."
On the third day, Gu Ruandong had an early flight back to Senzhou. He had to leave before dawn. Although the entire film studio was still quiet, Lu Yaoyao didn't dare to go out to see him off. She could only cling to him at the door of her room, a little reluctant to part.
After a while, Gu Ruandong carried her back to bed and tucked her in. "I'll come see you another day. You should sleep for a bit longer. Don't you have an important scene to film today"
She nodded obediently: "In two days, this show will be over and I can go back to rest for a few days."
However, regrettably, only ...
She had a few days off because she and Haojie decided to take on the drama "Fragrance Drunken Mistaken" . It's scheduled to start filming next month, coincidentally, also at this film and television base.
I take what I'm given and I finish it, no matter what.
Gu Ruandong leaned down and kissed her before standing up and leaving without waiting for her to see him off.
As soon as he left, Lu Yaoyao's heart felt empty. Just a few minutes later, she put on her pajamas and an outer jacket, and ran downstairs to the parking lot. Gu Ruandong's car had already driven a few steps away, but it was as if they were connected by their minds. Gu Ruandong saw her in the rearview mirror and quickly instructed the driver to pull over and open the car door.
Lu Yaoyao entered the car with a chill, burrowing into his arms and being very clingy.
Gu Ruandong lowered his head and kissed her hair: "Behave yourself!" There was pampering, but at this moment, there was more helplessness.
Lu Yao also didn't know why she would be so clingy to him. Hearing the sound of him closing the door, her heart felt empty, and she ran down immediately.
This review, he didn't rush her off the bus, missing a flight was a missed flight, just rebook it.
Lu Yaoyao wasn't truly being willful. After holding him for a while, she let go, knowing he was busy lately and that he had specially made time to visit her. She was already very content with this.
“Get off, I’ll accompany you back to the hotel.” She said so, and Gu Ruandong planned to cancel today's meeting and spend another day with her. Occasionally allowing himself to indulge once, following his heart wouldn't be bad either.
Lu Yaoyao wouldn't really delay his work, she was very sensible and shook her head before getting out of the car.
She ran all the way back to the hotel, bundled in her coat. It was only a few degrees outside on this March morning and her legs were bare under her coat, turning red from the cold.
It's a coincidence, I saw Xu Zhao coming out of the room when I was going back to my room.
Xu Zhao glanced at her, his eyes...
His gaze swept over the scar on her calf, then asked
"So early out"
Lu Yaoyao was feeling downcast and heartbroken. She hummed softly, opened the door, and went back to her room.the normal operations of our hotel."Only then did Zhuo Yu'an slightly turn his head to look behind the fireman, and he saw Shu Tinglan pressed against the wall of the corridor, soaked all over, shiver...
