Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 886 - 889: Shocking the Whole Audience
"Three hundred billion!"
Hearing this figure, Guo Man froze for a moment.
She couldn’t even begin to imagine—three hundred billion!
How much money is that?
If measured by weight, could ten trucks carry it all?
Investing such an astronomical amount, would it even yield results in Harbor City?
That’s US dollars! Not HKD!
Unbelievable!
"Hahaha!"
"I’m dying of laughter!"
"This is absolutely terrifying! Prince Lante is actually putting in this much money."
"Quick! Get me an emergency pill; I’m about to have a heart attack!"
"Old Li, since when did you have a heart condition?"
"The moment I heard this investment figure, it hit me instantly, hahaha!"
"Little Man, oh, Little Man, you’re still too young—you can’t even lie convincingly."
"No need to say more; start from the ground up, kid."
Guo Liang didn’t even bother to dig up the soft words he had planned earlier.
Because there was no need at all.
The moment three hundred billion was mentioned, everything was laid bare.
Guo Man had previously said that this partnership had only been negotiated over a few days.
Even if it really was Lante, and it really was the Ross Family...
At the start of a collaboration, Lante would never invest such an amount.
No matter if he’s the richest man in the world.
Even if money fell like water, no one spends it like this.
"President Guo, President Guo, carry on with your work—I’ve already sent out the documents. In two days, people will visit the company. You don’t need to pay them much attention; just sign the contracts and send them packing."
Before Guo Man could respond, Lante vanished from the video feed.
In the end, everything fell silent.
Only the faint buzzing sound of static echoed in the speakers.
In that moment, Guo Man couldn’t be bothered with the fools in the room.
Earlier, she had thought Lante would invest tens of billions, maybe up to a hundred billion.
Now it was clear—she had been completely, utterly wrong.
Three hundred billion!
Just thinking about it made her palms sweat.
And what’s more, she had arranged this collaboration entirely on her own.
No matter the losses this might incur, Lante would still make a second investment.
By then, the amount would double!
In other words, she had countless opportunities—failure didn’t matter.
Because with a super financial vault backing her, she could squander freely!
Terrifying! Truly terrifying!
Even Guo Man felt so shocked that her senses failed her.
She could barely hear any mockery directed at her.
But reality always catches up in the end.
A few minutes later, the laughter in the meeting room gradually subsided.
Everyone turned their gaze to Guo Man.
"Seniors, what do you think of this partnership?"
After steadying herself, Guo Man asked slowly.
"This partnership is excellent. The pity is—it’ll never come to fruition."
"Little Man, I once thought your experience studying abroad would make your thinking more mature. Now I see, I was wrong."
Guo Liang had been mistaken.
He could no longer shake his head—he was simply too exhausted.
Too many disappointments. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Three hundred billion USD—likely all that the Guo Family as a whole ever had.
And it wasn’t just a matter of the figure.
The acting itself had been far too theatrical.
No one would believe such a thing.
Why would Lante suddenly invest three hundred billion in your company without any clear reason?
On top of that, Lante spoke fluent Huaxia language.
Before putting on this absurd performance, they hadn’t even rehearsed.
The moment the three hundred billion number was mentioned, Guo Man had lost completely.
The crowd shook their heads one after another—this girl was beyond help.
The position of President of the Guo Family Group falling to her would lead the company to inevitable losses.
Before reaching that stage, stopping it at the source was the wisest course of action.
Guo Man smirked bitterly. These ignorant elders—so-called veterans seasoned by storms—were no better in the end!
Just as Guo Man was about to speak, the meeting room door was knocked once more.
This time, everyone turned their gaze toward the door again.
They were curious—after her failed video performance, what earth-shattering tricks Guo Man could possibly pull next.
The next moment, under countless gazes, a bespectacled assistant entered the room.
Having evidently sprinted a long distance, the assistant was out of breath.
"Little Zhao, is this even a place you’re allowed to be?"
Guo Lie immediately recognized the assistant—wasn’t she the girl who’d been his secretary for over six months?
This secretary clung to him with affection unmatched.
Obedient and capable, Little Zhao had lasted longer than any of Guo Lie’s previous lovers.
As for Little Zhao, Guo Lie was naturally very fond of her.
Not only did she possess an excellent figure, she also had a beautiful face.
Luckily, Little Zhao was money-hungry—she had a taste for wealth. Otherwise, Guo Lie would’ve had to expend far more effort to win her over.
"Minister Guo, the company is facing a major situation!"
After panting heavily for a while, Little Zhao finally managed to speak, her sharp voice resonating in every corner of the meeting room.
"What’s the rush?! Speak slowly."
Guo Lie felt a pang of sympathy—it was clear this girl had run herself ragged.
He remembered fondly how she’d been just as exhausted last night, after he took a blue pill.
"Just now, America’s AVI Group transferred an astronomical amount of funds to our company’s finance department."
Little Zhao could hardly believe the numbers she saw—they were utterly terrifying, enough to leave one breathless.
She couldn’t even dream such a horrifying amount existed.
After the sum entered the accounts, the finance department staff diligently verified it. In the end, they could confirm—it was all genuine, every last bit.
An older accountant, upon seeing the figures, instantly suffered elevated blood pressure and fainted on the spot.
"AVI Group sent a massive sum of money?"
Guo Lie couldn’t believe his ears, staring fixedly at Little Zhao.
Meanwhile, all other eyes turned their attention to Guo Man.
The AVI Group’s background was the Ross Family.
And just earlier, Guo Man had spoken with the Ross Family’s highest leader.
If this transfer was real, then everything about Guo Man would be real too!
"Yes, the finance department confirmed after thorough checks—the funds have already entered the company’s accounts."
Little Zhao said after catching her breath.
"How much?"
Guo Lie was nearly holding his breath—Little Zhao, being his secretary, wouldn’t lie to him.
Plus, his phone had been vibrating non-stop earlier—it must’ve been reports from other employees about the situation.
"Three hundred thirty billion USD. AVI Group also sent a message confirming: three hundred billion is startup capital for future cooperative projects, while thirty billion is compensatory ’shock money’ for the fear experienced by President Guo Man due to corporate pests."
"Holy sh*t!!!"
"Holy f**k, holy f**k!!!"
Almost simultaneously, the faces of the older leaders in the room drastically changed.
The video with Guo Man and Lante was real!
It was actually real!
A three hundred billion transfer straight to the company accounts!
Unbelievable doesn’t begin to describe the magnitude of this event.
There were no words to encapsulate the incredible shock reverberating through everyone’s hearts.
Even scarier was that Guo Man’s compensatory "shock money" alone amounted to thirty billion!
And yes, it was truly "shock money"! Everyone’s souls had almost been scared right out of their bodies...
