Chapter 131: Snatching It Away (First Update)

However, just then, the tightly closed conference room door was pushed open.

Su Ming walked in and calmly said to Lin Chuyu,

“Chu Yu, don’t listen to their nonsense. They’re trying to trick you. The Wind Chaser Mecha isn’t that expensive at all.”

“Su Ming?”

Lin Chuyu was slightly startled.

“Who let you in! What do you know?”

Wei Cheng, seeing Su Ming barge in and cause trouble, immediately roared in anger.

“Of course, I know. Chu Yu, if you want a Wind Chaser Mecha, I can help you order one. It’ll only cost 250 million federal currency.”

Su Ming completely ignored Wei Cheng and the others, smiling as he spoke to Lin Chuyu.

He had already thought it through. Since he didn’t fancy the Wind Chaser Mecha, he could just sell the slot to Lin Chuyu.

This way, he could earn a price difference of 100 million federal currency, which was a massive sum of money.

As for his own mecha, he could find a way to save more money and buy a better one all at once later.

“Really?”

Lin Chuyu asked, astonished.

“Chu Yu, don’t listen to his nonsense. 250 million federal currency, where would you even order that?”

Wei Han advised with a dark expression.

Wei Cheng, standing by, was also exasperated to the point of laughter. He spoke as if looking at an idiot.

“Where did this arrogant kid come from? 250 million federal currency! Who do you think you are? I can’t even get that price.”

“Just because you can’t get it doesn’t mean the Second Young Master can’t.”

At this moment, Jiang Yu saw that the timing was right and walked in.

“Manager Jiang Yu!”

Wei Cheng’s arrogant demeanor vanished the moment he saw Jiang Yu, replaced by a look of panic.

Although Manager Jiang Yu was not in the same department as him, Jiang Yu held a very high position in the company. Moreover, he was not just an ordinary employee; Jiang Yu was considered a retainer of the Su Family.

Most importantly, Manager Jiang Yu referred to this young man as Second Young Master, which indicated that Su Ming was a member of the Su Family.

“Don’t call me that. From now on, you are fired. Go to the HR department and complete your procedures. The reason is using your position to create a dual contract and defraud money. Of course, that’s not the most important thing. What cannot be tolerated is that you dared to disrespect the Second Young Master. You are challenging the authority of the Su Family, utterly arrogant!”

Jiang Yu looked at Wei Cheng with an extremely oppressive gaze. The reason he entered late was to let Wei Cheng offend Su Ming, making it easier for him to intervene.

Wei Cheng suddenly felt his vision go black and struggled to stand steady.

“Uncle, are you alright?”

Wei Han nervously supported Wei Cheng.

Lin Chuyu watched this scene and sighed slightly. She said to Wei Han,

“Wei Han, I considered you a friend, but you didn’t consider me one. From now on, we are strangers.”

“Chu Yu, listen to my explanation, this is truly a misunderstanding.”

Wei Han quickly tried to explain, wanting to smooth things over.

He knew that if what he did today was spread by Lin Chuyu, he wouldn’t be able to get along in school anymore.

Moreover, Lin Chuyu had entered the inner school and had limitless prospects in the future. It would be very troublesome to be held accountable, not to mention that he originally wanted to pursue her.

“No need to explain.”

Lin Chuyu said resolutely.

Wei Han’s face immediately turned pale upon hearing Lin Chuyu’s words.

At this moment, Wei Cheng took a deep breath, composed himself, and said to Jiang Yu,

“Manager Jiang Yu, I was actually doing this for the company. Isn’t business not so good lately? I just thought of selling at a high price.”

“Don’t bring the company into this. The company’s sales prices throughout the years have always been based on a guiding price of 300 million federal currency, never exceeding 280 million federal currency. You’re not doing this for the company, but for yourself, and your actions are also tarnishing the company’s reputation.”

Jiang Yu mercilessly exposed Wei Cheng’s lie.

“Manager Jiang Yu, we are not in the same department. This is a bit overstepping, isn’t it? And what you’re doing might not be in line with the rules. Someone will certainly not agree.”

Wei Cheng said with a very ugly expression.

He implicitly reminded Jiang Yu that he had someone backing him and that he shouldn’t overstep his bounds.

Jiang Yu replied without any room for negotiation.

“I don’t need to repeat the company’s rules and regulations, do I? If you think my words are not convincing, I don’t mind reporting to the Old Master and letting him decide.”

“Good, good, good! Wei Han, let’s go!”

Wei Cheng, hearing Jiang Yu’s words, laughed in anger.

Wei Han also followed Wei Cheng out of the conference room with a pale face.

After the two had walked away, Wei Han asked Wei Cheng worriedly,

“Uncle, what will you do now? You won’t really be fired, will you?”

“It’s not that easy to fire me. I’m going to find the Second Young Master right now. You go back to school first.”

Wei Cheng said to Wei Han with an unpredictable expression.

“Alright.”

Wei Han nodded.

Inside the conference room, Jiang Yu, seeing that the matter was resolved, immediately said to Su Ming,

“Second Young Master, please come out for a moment. I have something to discuss with you.”

“Chu Yu, wait for me here.”

Su Ming instructed Lin Chuyu, then followed Jiang Yu out of the conference room.

Jiang Yu led Su Ming to a corner and lowered his voice as he spoke to Su Ming,

“Second Young Master, Wei Cheng’s matter is easy to handle, but the 250 million federal currency price you promised Miss Chu Yu is a bit difficult. The company rarely offers such a low price, and you also want priority in the order queue, I’m afraid…”

“You don’t have to worry about that. The Old Master promised me he’d give me one at cost price, 150 million federal currency, and with priority! And I don’t plan to use the Wind Chaser, so I thought of transferring it to her and earning a 100 million federal currency price difference along the way.”

Su Ming briefly explained to Jiang Yu.

Regarding the purchase of the mecha, Su Ming also had his own considerations.

The Su-style Wind Chaser focused on speed and long-range attacks, while its performance in other aspects was quite average, which made him somewhat dissatisfied. In contrast, the Azure Wing Mecha, valued at 800 million federal currency, was excellent in all aspects, whether it was speed, long-range attacks, defense, or close combat.

Therefore, Su Ming decided to set his sights on this mecha.

However, the Azure Wing Mecha was not that easy to acquire, even though it was available in the school’s mall.

But to purchase it from the school’s mall, one had to complete three academy missions, and this was not an easy feat.

Otherwise, Lin Chuyu wouldn’t have gone out to buy it from a manufacturer.

Of course, even with such strict purchase conditions, in some respects, it was much better than purchasing outside the school. After all, mechas sold outside, if not assisted by a reliable person, were basically overpriced, not to mention a super popular Third Generation Mecha like the Azure Wing.

Additionally, Su Ming had also considered the worst-case scenario: if he couldn’t gather 800 million federal currency, he would settle for the Third Generation Mecha·Gun Knight.

After all, this mecha used a gun, which he was accustomed to operating.

Therefore, he thought of transferring the order to Lin Chuyu, earning a price difference, and also helping her out.

“Good, it seems the Second Young Master has grand aspirations.”

Jiang Yu finished listening to Su Ming’s words and showed a brilliant smile. He truly admired his student more and more.
