Chapter 116 - 116: This Woman Is Really
Zhang Cheng rubbed his forehead, showing a hint of helplessness.
Yi Hong cleared his throat lightly, adjusted his collar, and asked seriously, “Where’s the letter of intent for financing?”
“…Here.” Zhang Cheng handed it to him.
Just as before, Yi Hong handed it over to Shen Wan, who quickly scanned through it, only pausing briefly when she reached the amount.
Ten million.
Yi Hong couldn’t quite read her thoughts, so he decided to be straightforward. “This amount was discussed and agreed upon earlier. If you’re not satisfied, we can negotiate…”
“No need, this is fine.” Shen Wan signed with her pen, closing the document with a crisp sound. She then looked at Yi Hong and smiled, saying, “They say there’s no business without being a bit cunning. Mr. Yi, you seem to be a breath of fresh air.”
Investing ten million in a college student team that’s still in development was not something many people in the venture capital world would dare to do.
Yi Hong had managed to come this far unscathed, even establishing a stronghold in Ning City. His luck was truly extraordinary!
“I dare not accept such praise,” Yi Hong replied modestly, but his smile was genuine. He clearly appreciated Shen Wan’s compliment. “The letter of intent still needs the signatures of the other team members to take effect. I’ll contact them to explain the details as soon as possible.”
“Thank you.”
At the same time, in the penthouse suite of the Huiteng Hotel.
“Lord.” Chu Yujiang walked in briskly. “They arranged to meet at the same teahouse as yesterday.”
Ling Yun furrowed his brow. “This woman has some nerve. She was just exposed yesterday, and today, she’s not even changing the location.”
“There’s a saying…” Chu Yujiang pondered for a moment. “Throwing caution to the wind.”
Quan Hanting chuckled and shook his head. “You’re mistaken.”
“How does the Lord see it?”
“She’s not throwing caution to the wind. She’s telling me, in this way, that she’s not afraid of the situation being exposed and reaching the ears of the Shen family.”
Yesterday, the things he had used to threaten her were now openly displayed.
This woman is truly…
Quan Hanting’s eyes showed a hint of helplessness, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, a smile even he hadn’t noticed.
Chu Yujiang and Ling Yun exchanged glances.
Is this still our lord?
He’s even acting a bit… provocative.
“Mr. Yi, it’s been a pleasure working with you.” Shen Wan stood up and extended her hand.
Yi Hong shook it and replied, “A pleasure indeed.”
They had moved to a different location, sharing a lunch together. During their meal, Yi Hong received a phone call and spoke for more than ten minutes. When he returned, he mentioned to Shen Wan, “My friend started his career in the seafood industry, and he’s generous and has a keen eye. He has invested in several projects in the past two years and made only profits, no losses. From what he said, he’s planning to develop in Ning City soon. If Miss Shen has some free time, how about all of us meet for a meal? Consider it a gathering of friends.”
This meant that he wanted to help her make connections.
Originally, Shen Wan had intended to decline directly. She had no money, no connections, and even if it were a big project, she could only sigh with longing. Moreover, if the other party wanted to develop in Ning City, her sudden involvement might easily be exposed to the Shen family. Before she had established herself, such a move would be too risky.
But out of instinctive caution, she still asked for the person’s name.
“Ma Xiangqian, he lived up to his name.”
Shen Wan’s hand, holding her chopsticks, paused, and her expression immediately became subtle.
Having a name like that and a background in the seafood industry, it happened to match someone from her memory!
“Alright, then I’ll trouble Mr. Yi to make the arrangements.”
Yi Hong hadn’t expected her to agree so readily. The current Shen Wan seemed to have some resemblance to the “Mr. Wan” from his memory—equally straightforward and open, efficient, and graceful.
Speaking of which, are all the young ladies nowadays this capable?
