How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?

Chapter 23 - 23 Isnt Someone Elses Bright Moon Just As Bright?

The time had passed eleven o’clock at night.

Because of the "Grand Slam" package, there were quite a few people who came to Gu Heng under the guise of toasting, asking for his contact information...

Gu Heng had also added a few Miss Sisters on WeChat whose looks were still decent...

Although they couldn’t compete with Lin Jiayun and her friends in terms of beauty, after using beauty filters and photo editing, they would be Internet goddesses when posted online, possibly even some boy’s unattainable crush...

To be honest, Gu Heng didn’t have an unattainable crush...

From elementary school to high school, he was not surrounded by any school belle level beauties, and even if there were, they wouldn’t have had any interaction with him...

But that did not stop Gu Heng from wanting to taste what it was like to have an unattainable crush...

Why not?

Who says you can’t savor the flavor of an unattainable crush if you never had one?

Are others’ unattainable crushes not legitimate to taste?

However, in the eyes of Lin Jiayun and her two friends, this behavior was the sign of a playboy who welcomed all comers...

Anyway, he was already nailed to the cross of scumbags by the three of them, and no matter how he tried, he couldn’t wash it off.

Gu Heng did not know what the three women were thinking, but even if he did, he wouldn’t care. With money, he wanted to experience everything, like traveling around the world, selecting from Victoria’s Secret models, going to France to see how mad horses show off, and so on.

The only thing he never thought about was falling in love, eating, drinking, whoring, gambling...

Cough cough... which word isn’t more tantalizing than falling in love in the phrase ’to eat, drink, and be merry’?

After all, the wise do not fall in love, ’not responsible for pregnancy’ is the real truth, right...

.....

A few minutes later, after seeing off a few more people who had come to toast, Gu Heng was starting to get bored.

Pulling out his phone, he glanced at the time. Gu Heng then stood up and turned to Lin Jiayun, "Are you guys still playing?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jiayun put down her phone, which she was using to take selfies, and looked at him, "You’re planning to head back?"

Gu Heng nodded, "I’m planning to. I have things to do tomorrow."

Lin Jiayun sneered disdainfully, "Just admit it if you can’t hang. What do you have to do? You’ve quit your job, what else could possibly be up?"

"I’m planning to buy a car tomorrow, but I’ve heard it’s troublesome to buy a car at the end of the year, getting a license plate and all. Don’t I need to check it out in advance? In just a few days it’ll be the New Year, you think I’m going to rent a car to go home for that?"

Gu Heng’s tone was matter-of-fact, as if he had forgotten that just that afternoon he was someone contemplating renting a car to go home for New Year in style...

Hearing this, Lin Jiayun believed Gu Heng truly had things to do the next day and lazily said, "Alright then, let’s call it a night today. I’m not live streaming anyway, so I can go back and get some beauty sleep~"

After speaking, she stretched unconsciously, with her bounteous peaks threatening to spill out...

Jiajun, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, suddenly lit up at the keyword "buy a car."

"Mr. Gu, if you’re thinking of buying a car, I might be able to offer some small help..."

"Oh?"

Gu Heng raised an eyebrow and looked at him.

"It’s like this, I have a few customers who are the sales champions in various big 4S shops around Hang City. They have much more authority than regular car salespeople, both in terms of price and convenience. If you need, I can help you get in touch with them."

"I have to go home on the 26th of the last lunar month, which is ten days from now. Are you sure your friends can help me out?"

Upon hearing Gu Heng’s words, Jiajun immediately felt relieved.

He was worrying Gu Heng was in a hurry, but knowing there were still ten days, he confidently patted his chest and said, "No problem at all, Mr. Gu, you can count on it."

Seeing his brimming confidence, Gu Heng also felt reassured.

Hiring a car to pretend to be something he wasn’t was out of necessity because he had no money. Now that he had money, it couldn’t be expected for him to still rent a car to play pretend, could it?

"I didn’t realize, Jiajun, you have quite the network, covering all sectors it seems."

"All salespeople under heaven are one family. What network? If I introduce them to a big customer like Mr. Gu, won’t they also reward me later? It’s convenient for you and beneficial for me."

"I get it, resource integration, right?"

....

....

Two minutes later, Gu Heng, led by Jiajun, walked towards the entrance of FT Bar.

He Jing, who had been silent all night and hardly spoke, finally broke the silence.

"Gu Heng."

"Hmm?"

Hearing He Jing call him, Gu Heng turned his head to look at her.

After hesitating for a while, He Jing didn’t know how to start the conversation, but the fact that Gu Heng had spent 510,000 in one night was indeed hard for her to accept. After all, he had been a nobody before, someone she knew, and suddenly he became someone who could spend a fortune like it was nothing. The shock was too much...

The feeling was like knowing a 300-pound homebody for years, and then one day, out of the blue, he has transformed into a 6-foot-tall, abstinent, and incredibly handsome guy...

"Is what you told me this afternoon true?"

After hesitating for a long time, He Jing couldn’t help but ask the question that had been on her mind all night.

"What did I say this afternoon?"

He Jing: "???"

Don’t tell me you’ve already forgotten what you said just this afternoon?

After thinking for quite a while, Gu Heng finally remembered and said with a laugh, "Are you talking about the thing where my father is a billionaire?"

"Mhm, mhm."

"Of course, it’s fake."

"Then where did you get all this money? Don’t tell me it’s from winning the lottery! I’ve already checked; no one in Hang City has won any big prize this year."

He Jing’s question left Gu Heng at a loss...

It seemed that he truly couldn’t explain where his money came from, and he didn’t have any plans to start a business. With the small amount of money he had now, a few million wouldn’t get people investigating without reason, but what to do when there was more money in the future...

[The host’s awarded funds come from the profits of the foreign exchange financial market, which are legitimate and traceable.](PS: I actually don’t want to explain these P questions, but considering some readers might be sticklers for details, I might as well spend some words to clarify it once and for all.)

However, it wasn’t long before the system, which usually didn’t make an appearance unless for rewards, reassured Gu Heng, making him feel at ease. After all, if such a fantastical thing as the system could exist, making his money seem legitimate shouldn’t be too difficult, right?

But Gu Heng’s silence made He Jing mistakenly believe there was something fishy about his money. She lowered her voice and said anxiously, "You didn’t get into online loans, did you?"

After hearing this, Gu Heng couldn’t help but roll his eyes and said, "What on earth are you thinking about? Do you think those online lending companies are stupid? Would they lend hundreds of thousands to someone with a monthly salary of 4,500? Aren’t they afraid I can’t pay it back? They’re in it to make money, not to give charity to the poor."

"Then where did your money come from?"

"So my money could come from winning the lottery, online loans, inheriting family wealth, but it just couldn’t be made by myself?"

He Jing: "..."

....

While talking, Gu Heng and his group had already arrived at the entrance of FT Bar.

The door staff maintaining order and greeting guests were alerted by a fervent call from their headsets.

"Attention, attention! Mr. Gu, who spent 380,000 on T·03 card, is about to leave. Everyone, stay sharp!"

No sooner had the voice faded from their ears than the service staff saw Gu Heng and the others walking out from the Inner Gate. They immediately stood up and bowed respectfully in unison, saying with reverence, "Mr. Gu, have a good night."

At 11 o’clock, the peak period for nightclub shifts was in full swing, and many people were still standing outside the entrance. At that moment, they all turned their gaze towards Gu Heng...

These night club veterans knew very well that such a display was reserved only for the high-spending big shots. And as for who the big shot was, wasn’t that crystal clear? A man with three gorgeous women— if not a big shot, then what?

Even Gu Heng was a bit taken aback...

But after a brief moment of confusion, he happily accepted it and left with He Jing, Lin Jiayun, and Xiao Lan under the envious gaze of the crowd...

Do I even need to say it...

These 340,000 spent were truly not wasted...

Although the drinks were incredibly hard to swallow, the prestige, tonight he really nailed it...
