How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself? Chapter 130 - 96 Does He Really Have a Girlfriend?! (Two in
It was ultimately Lin Ran who reminded him to ask Gu Heng if he wanted to hire a celebrity, perhaps a singer to perform a couple of songs at the wedding...
This would not only give Li Feng face but also build up his own reputation without causing too much entanglent of interests between the two...
As an executive of a Fortune 500 company, Lin Ran had a pretty good network. In just a few hours, he managed to get contact information for several celebrity and singer agents...
Gu Heng inquired about almost seven or eight of them.
Either their schedules were full, or the notice was too short for them to make it.
Only a singer like Xu Song, who was neither very famous nor obscure and didn’t have many engagents, agreed right away.
And coincidentally, Xu Song hailed from Hui’an and was currently spending the New Year at his hotown in Lu Zhou. It would take just over an hour to drive to Qing’an City.
In the end, with Lin Ran’s bargaining skills, they agreed on a price of 800,000 yuan.
The gig was 40 minutes long, for five songs...

"Who is that, Hengzi? You’re making such a big move, and you have to go to the hotel to see him in person?"
As Gu Heng hung up the phone, Li Feng, with Zhao Fang in his arms, teased with a laugh.
Gu Heng didn’t plan to tell him right then and brushed him off with, "Just a friend of mine. He said he’s coming over to play for a couple of days and asked to et him."
"Okay, but later you should invite him to the wedding too. Your friend is my friend, right?"
Listening to Li Feng’s words, Gu Heng replied with a secretive smile, "Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring him to your wedding.
And you know him, too."
"I know him? Who is it?"
"You’ll know when he gets here."
Talking as he went, Gu Heng then dialed Lin Ran’s number again, "Are you up yet?"
In the car, Li Feng and Li ngxue turned their heads subconsciously upon hearing Gu Heng’s gentle voice...
Li Feng had never seen Gu Heng talk to anyone like that over the years...
As for Li ngxue, it was a woman’s intuition...
Her intuition told her that the person on the phone with Gu Heng was definitely a woman...
"Just woke up..."
On the phone, Lin Ran yawned. Her voice was hazy and soft, lacking any trace of a strong businesswoman...
"As long as you’re awake. I’ll send you an address, co pick up, and we’ll head to the city together. That person you helped book yesterday has already arrived."
"He’s there, so why don’t you go? You pay him, he performs, simple as that. Why do you need to go?"
"I’m just afraid of getting scamd. Besides, you helped contact him, shouldn’t you follow through as a good Samaritan?"
Hearing Gu Heng’s roguish tone, Lin Ran couldn’t help but chuckle, continuing, "Even if you’re scamd, it’s only 800,000 yuan. Are you short of that much money? Don’t you trust my connections? I personally asked soone for the contact info; how could it be fake?"
"Enough talk, are you coming or not?"

"Fine, I’ll wash up, do my makeup, and head over. Send the address on WeChat."
After speaking, Lin Ran hung up before Gu Heng could continue the conversation...
Gu Heng was accustod to this straightforward way of interacting with Lin Ran and tucked his phone back into his pocket, humming a tune as he focused on driving...
But this incident indeed served as a wake-up call for him. As his wealth slowly grew, every little thing he did seed to involve tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan. It was ti to hire a personal lawyer—dealing with affairs like this by himself was getting too exhausting...
.....
Li ngxue had wanted to find an opportunity to speak to Gu Heng, but from the mont he got in the car, he was busy on the phone and didn’t spare her a glance...
Although she knew that Gu Heng probably no longer had any feelings for her, the persistent part of her adjusted her emotions, preparing to make another initiative...
Even if humbling herself to her ex-boyfriend, whom she had once kicked to the curb, felt humiliating...
But she couldn’t help it...
Gu Heng’s posture while driving the Bentley with one hand was just too cool...
But just as she was about to speak, Gu Heng seed to preempt her intentions and said to Li Feng, "Fengzi, after I drop you off at ho, my girlfriend will pick up to go downtown.
I won’t take the car, just find soone to drive it later."
Interrupted once more by Gu Heng, Li ngxue nearly burst an internal organ in frustration...
She could only muster an awkward smile, listening to their conversation...
"No way! Who dares to drive this thing? What if it gets scratched? Who’s going to take the responsibility for that?"
"If no one wants to drive, just do it yourself. Anyway, I’m leaving the car with you."
"You son of a..."
Li Feng wanted to scold him so more, but he suddenly caught on to the key word in Gu Heng’s statent, puzzled, "Girlfriend? When did you get a girlfriend, kiddo? How co I didn’t know about this? Could it be that you’re jealous of getting married and made up a girlfriend out of thin air?"
As he said this, Li Feng glanced at Li ngxue with the corner of his eye and saw her feigned smile...
"I don’t have the free ti to lie to you. You’ll et her later."
This ti, Li ngxue no longer had any desire to catch up with Gu Heng...
Whether Gu Heng truly had a girlfriend or was making one up as Li Feng suggested,
The answer was pretty clear...
He was telling her not to harbor any unrealistic thoughts...
In fact, that was exactly what Gu Heng ant.
....
....
Ten minutes later.
Gu Heng parked the car outside Li Feng’s house,
And as he got out, he saw many faces he couldn’t na but still found familiar...
"Damn, Gu Heng, you’re actually driving a Bentley? When Li Feng was chatting with the other day, I thought he was bullshitting!"
"That’s a Bentley Flying Spur, right? The landing price has got to be at least 3 million, right?"
