C132 – Don’t Kneel!

For Wang Guohui and his colleagues, these items were treasures beyond value, impossible to purchase with any amount of money.

After all, Mr. Su was not exactly strapped for cash.

Mr. Su likely felt a pang of guilt, knowing Wang Guohui had spent a considerable sum. He didn’t want Wang Guohui to be at a loss, hence his decision to gift these items.

Perhaps Mr. Su didn’t see much monetary value in them.

But Wang Guohui was well aware that there would be countless people in the market willing to pay top dollar for such a thing.

“Thank you, Mr. Su!”

Clutching the water bottle, Wang Guohui was so moved that he trembled and knelt down.

He gave Su Ming quite the scare.

“Stand up!”

Su Ming hurried to lift him to his feet.

“No, I won’t stand. Mr. Su, you’ve been incredibly kind to me. You’ve given me something so valuable. How can I ever thank you?”

The senior executives behind him followed suit, kneeling as well.

It was an astonishing sight.

Angel Group was a leading trade conglomerate.

Yet there they were, the chairman and top brass, all kneeling.

Su Ming, witnessing this, could only press a hand to his forehead in disbelief.

Was this really the corporate culture of their company?

Surely there was no need for such frequent kneeling.

Especially here, in the heart of the city center, right next to the Guoxing Building.

The bustling crowd stopped in their tracks, taken aback by the spectacle.

“Look, isn’t that the Angel Group’s logo on the car?”

“That’s definitely Angel Group.”

As expected, upon hearing Su Ming’s displeasure, Wang Guohui and his companions quickly scrambled to their feet.

“Mr. Su, our sincerest apologies, we must be going now.”

With his hands clasped behind him, Su Ming gave a silent nod. “This remedy is good for health, whether you’re ill or not. If you’re well, it can prevent sickness; if you’re unwell, it can fortify your body. Mr. Wang, in particular, I suggest you drink more. It might help you keep your spine straight when you walk.”

Wang Guohui was at a loss for words.

He could stand tall in front of others, but in Su Ming’s presence, he felt compelled to kneel.

Eventually, Su Ming sent them all packing.

Striding ahead with determination, Wang Guohui offered a casual smile to the onlookers: “Mr. Su is a valued friend of Angel Group. However, I’d advise against disturbing him, lest you wish to incur my displeasure.”

With that, they climbed into their car and left.

The onlookers at the Guoxing Building blinked in surprise.

Most of them worked there and were familiar with Angel Group, a prestigious company within their professional network. They all had connections to one another.

“Who exactly is this young man?”

“I come here to work every day, and this guy is out here farming of all things.”

“This land must be worth at least ten billion.”

“We should move on. We’re never going to rub shoulders with someone like him in our lifetime.”

“You’re right about that.”

The onlookers exhaled in resignation, abandoning any thoughts of making Su Ming’s acquaintance.

If even Wang Guohui had to kneel before him, they stood no chance of forming a connection.

They simply weren’t in the same league.

But it wasn’t long before the video made its way online.

Far from being upset, Wang Guohui was actually thrilled when he learned of it.

It was as if his association with Su Ming was now public knowledge.

Wang Guohui sat in his car, circling the city center.

He scrutinized the layout of downtown and the nearby skyscrapers before phoning his secretary.

“Check which buildings around here are on the market. Purchase them all and level the area!”
