"Haha! The first time I met you, I felt we really hit it off. I also saw that you'd definitely be someone important in the future, destined to make a name for yourself sooner or later." Zhuo Weidong said with a hearty laugh.

"At that time, I already regarded you as a brother. If a brother wants to buy many houses but doesn't have the funds, of course, I'd figure out how to help you sort out the loan issue."

"Helping you is like helping myself, you could call it killing two birds with one stone."

"But it's only because it's you. If it were someone else, I certainly wouldn't help them get a loan for billions or sell them 1000 houses."

Yi Anguo smiled slightly upon hearing this but said nothing, merely smiling without speaking.

Though, in his heart, Yi Anguo couldn't help but think, besides someone like him who has come back to life, who else would dare to take out a loan for billions to buy 1000 houses?

Because for 1000 houses, what if the prices don't rise in a few years? What if they can't all be rented out?

If the rental income can't cover the monthly loans, it could easily turn into a disaster!

But Yi Anguo didn't bother to expose Zhuo Weidong's bragging.

"Brother Zhuo! I know without your help back then, I wouldn't be who I am today, nor would I have Anguo Group, so I've always been grateful to you." Yi Anguo said, responding to Zhuo Weidong.

"In the financial crisis of 2008, Brother Zhuo's Blue Coast faced a crisis, didn't I unhesitatingly put forth money and effort to help Blue Coast through it?"

"Also, Ou Bro's company was embroiled in internal family strife, with struggles among the executives, leading to financial issues. The bank wouldn't lend money. Didn't I also help by putting forth money and effort without a second thought?"

In essence, I, Yi Anguo, am not someone who doesn't understand gratitude and reciprocation; the kindness you've shown me, I've repaid it.

Even if you didn't genuinely intend to help me initially, I still appreciated it and don't plan on exposing you.

What Yi Anguo said made Zhuo Weidong and Ou Xiaolong feel a bit uncomfortable.

But Yi Anguo wasn't wrong, so the two of them had nothing to say.

They couldn't deny that Yi Anguo had helped them, right?

Although Yi Anguo didn't help them unconditionally, taking away most of the profits for himself, leaving them just a little.

But if Yi Anguo hadn't helped them, they wouldn't even have that little bit of soup to drink, and the company might have collapsed at any time.

This was something they were very well aware of.

After a brief silence, Zhuo Weidong soon lifted the atmosphere again, and amidst the jesting and toasting, the earlier awkwardness dissipated.

"Brother Zhuo, last year you went to Harbor Island, did you hide that beauty queen away? When will you introduce her to everyone?" Yi Anguo said with a smile.

"What do you mean by hiding? I'm serious about her. Planning to marry her properly after she graduates." Zhuo Weidong blushed and said hurriedly.

"By the way, in the future, you have to look after your sister-in-law a bit! Don't think I don't know, that boss lady from Liying Film is related to you; otherwise, how could Liying Film be so deeply tied to Anjing Video?"

"And the films and TV dramas Liying Film is currently shooting are all invested by your Anjing Video."

Yi Anguo nodded in agreement and said, "Of course, that's possible, but I don't really understand filming movies and TV dramas, so the specifics will depend on how Liying Film arranges it."

"But I will talk to President Zhao of Liying Film. Since Liying Film and Anjing Video are in a partnership, she'll have to give me some face."

Zhuo Weidong chuckled and said, "Don't give me that. I think Liying Film is a company you personally invested in, and as for its lady boss, maybe she's your hidden lover."

"By the way, Brother Ou's little daughter seems to be working by your side, right?"

"Brother Ou, you better be careful, lest one day Yi calls you father-in-law, and you're still clueless about what happened!"

Ou Xiaolong's face looked a bit awkward after hearing this, and he said, "Brother Zhuo, don't joke about that! Mr. Yi is a hot commodity right now, and my daughter isn't exactly a stunning beauty, so how could Mr. Yi even be interested in her?"

"And we're brothers, my daughter has always respected him, calling him Uncle Yi."

"Your daughter calls him Uncle Yi, but he's not really her uncle. If they really got together, you'd probably be quite happy, wouldn't you?" Zhuo Weidong continued jokingly.

"Brother Zhuo! Give me a break! I don't have a problem with it, but saying this might harm Miss Chen's reputation." Yi Anguo joined in.

"By the way, didn't Yi say before that you'd be lucky in love last year, falling for a woman in the entertainment circle? And it actually turned out to be true!"

Ou Xiaolong quickly shifted the conversation back to left Weidong to avoid any further awkwardness.
