Chapter 309 304: Young Entrepreneur

A video of a top official at Peng City Weizhong Bank typing on a Keyboard was broadcast on the news channel that evening.

The video wasn't very long, but the clip of Wu Yun getting his shoulder patted by the official was kept in, and the news channel dubbed him a "Young Entrepreneur."

The moment the title was announced, it received widespread support and approval from netizens, which in turn boosted sales for Wu Yun's companies' products.

However, there was another piece of news about Wu Yun that night. The case involving the overconfident woman who had thrown fluorescent water on his Rolls-Royce went to court that day. The court ordered her to pay Wu Yun the full 200,000 yuan for vehicle repairs, with immediate enforcement!

In media footage covering the story, the overconfident woman was seen bawling her eyes out, repeatedly insisting it was unintentional and that she was a member of a vulnerable group. While she managed to gain some sympathy from uninformed viewers, all her crying was to no avail.

Of course, Wu Yun had long since put the matter to the back of his mind. He only remembered to check the news when Wang Hao reported it to him that evening.

Dilireba had just finished shooting a promotional video. Exhausted, she lay on her hotel bed, not wanting to move an inch. The constant vibrations from her phone were starting to irritate her.

Annoyed, she picked up her phone, only to see it was a notification from her social media feed. It was news about Wu Yun, whom she followed. She saw the "Young Entrepreneur" title, and when she tapped on it, she was utterly shocked.

'I can't believe Wu Yun has actually reached a level where top officials pat him on the shoulder!' She felt a little lucky to have met Wu Yun when she did, and she resolved to hold on tightly to such a powerful connection!

So, she picked up her phone and sent Wu Yun a message right away.

"Wow! A Young Entrepreneur! President Wu! I admire you so much!"

But after waiting for quite a while, there was still no reply from Wu Yun. Anxious and insecure, she experienced for the first time what her past admirers must have felt when they chased her and messaged her, waiting for a response. 'Should I message him again and ask what he's doing? Why isn't he replying to me?'

Fortunately, the thought was fleeting. She knew that acting that way would only annoy Wu Yun, especially since they had just met. After all, their relationship was nothing more than that of nodding acquaintances.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK~ A knock at the door interrupted Dilireba's racing thoughts.

Yawning, Dilireba pushed herself up from the bed and shuffled casually to the door in the hotel's disposable slippers.

"Xiaodi! Come on! We're going out for dinner!" Sister Wu said with a smile as the door opened.

It was already nine o'clock at night. At Sister Wu's words, Dilireba felt her stomach start to RUMBLE.

"Sister Wu, come on in and wait for me! I need to put on my shoes!" Dilireba was a bit of a foodie, but she was usually very strict about controlling her weight, eating light and small portions. Still, an occasional indulgence was no big deal.

A short while later, Dilireba was fully dressed. She had also neatened up her hair, and after a final check to make sure everything was in order, she walked out of the bathroom with a radiant smile.

"Let's go, Sister Wu! I found a really delicious seafood restaurant nearby online! Let's go try it!" With that, she put on a hat, linked arms with Sister Wu, and they walked out of the room.

While they were seated and waiting for their food to arrive, Dilireba asked, "Sister Wu, have you seen the news?"

Sister Wu looked puzzled; she had just finished handling the follow-up work for Dilireba and hadn't even had a chance to go back to her own room.

Seeing Dilireba's excited expression, Sister Wu joked, "What's up? Did you start trending online?"

Dilireba shook her head, then pulled up the news article she had just seen and handed her phone to Sister Wu.

"Hiss… That's terrifyingly impressive…" Sister Wu muttered, quoting a classic internet meme.

"With this, very few people in the country will dare to touch Wu Yun! As long as he doesn't make any huge, fundamental mistakes, his career is going to be a meteoric rise! Xiaodi! You have to seize this opportunity!"

Dilireba said with a frustrated look, "I messaged him the moment I saw it, but he still hasn't replied! He's probably busy. After all, with so many business magnates there today, they're probably still out feasting!"

The circle Wu Yun moved in now was one that most celebrities were desperate to break into. After all, once you entered that circle and made the right connections, a steady stream of resources would come your way.

Sister Wu offered her own advice, "Then you'll just have to wait for him to reply! If he doesn't answer tonight, message him again tomorrow morning and ask him out for a meal while you're at it! That's how you build a connection!"

"Whether you end up dating him or just become friends, there will surely be benefits for you." Sister Wu already knew that Wu Yun had a girlfriend, but that didn't matter. Rich men changed girlfriends at the speed of light, let alone a young billionaire like Wu Yun.

The two of them continued to chat about Wu Yun as they ate their seafood.

DING DONG~ A WeChat notification chimed on Dilireba's personal phone.

Dilireba eagerly picked it up to look. It was a reply from Wu Yun.

"Just now I was shooting the breeze with Xiaomage! Hey, don't praise me! You'll make my head swell!" Wu Yun's little joke surprised Dilireba, completely upending the image of the young, serious president she had in her mind.

After all, the male lead in *Diamond Lover*, the TV series she had just finished filming, was the epitome of the domineering CEO archetype—a diamond bachelor in the hearts of millions of young women.

But Wu Yun's words made him feel more like a real, flesh-and-blood person, which made her feel a sense of closeness.

Seeing Dilireba giggling foolishly at her phone, Sister Wu said in exasperation, "Xiaodi, compose yourself! It won't look good if people see you like this once you get even more famous!"

"Sister Wu, this Wu Yun is actually pretty funny!" Dilireba said, her fingers already flying across the screen as she typed back: "I'm not just praising you! I'm stating a fact!"

"So, handsome Young Entrepreneur, are you free tomorrow evening? I'd like to treat you to dinner!" A faint smile appeared at the corners of Dilireba's lips.

It made Sister Wu shake her head. As someone with more life experience, she knew the young woman was on the verge of falling for him.

"Stop daydreaming! Hurry up and eat! The seafood won't be good if it gets cold!" Sister Wu picked up a scallop with minced garlic and unceremoniously popped it into her mouth.

DING DONG!~

Dilireba had just put her phone down when the WeChat notification chimed again.

"Ah, what bad timing. Someone from Modu just invited me this afternoon to a gathering tomorrow night, I'm really sorry! How about this! I'll treat you next time I'm in Modu! We'll schedule a time then!"

Seeing Wu Yun's reply, Dilireba pouted unhappily. Although Wu Yun seemed surprisingly down-to-earth, she didn't dare reply with the tone she used on her admirers. "Okay~ I'll contact you to schedule something when I'm back in Modu!"

Placing her phone on the table, Dilireba said dejectedly, "I finally had a chance to get closer to him, and someone else beat me to it!"

With that, Dilireba channeled her frustration into her appetite, taking a vicious bite out of a piece of steamed geoduck.

Sister Wu smiled and comforted her, "Don't be in such a rush! At least you two have each other's contact info now."
