Chapter 300 – “Yes, I want to treasure you.” (1)

Yang Zifeng had a good relationship with Yan Shuyu and he was never one who liked to beat around the bush. He had always spoken his mind in front of her.

This time, however, he was like a different person. He struggled with his words for a long while before he was finally able to get out what he had intended to under Yan Shuyu’s encouraging look. What he had said, however, baffled Yan Shuyu. “Yanyan, did you mention to Boss Zhou that I asked if you wanted to become partners earlier in the year?”

Yan Shuyu was stunned a little. She had no idea why he brought that up out of the blue but nodded anyway. “Yeah, I might have mentioned it to him in passing.”

“You did?” Yang Zifeng seemed to be somewhat excited.

Yan Shuyu gave him an even odder look. “I live with the man and, unless he was on a business trip, he is home every night. We are together day in and day out; it’s only normal that we’d chitchat occasionally. What’s with your overreaction?”

“If you were just yakking with him over minute stuff, I wouldn’t be reacting this way. That being said, it was quite surprised that a man of his caliber had time to chitchat with you.” Yang Zifeng explained but, before Yan Shuyu could say anything, he carried on, “But that wasn’t why I am here. A few days ago, an elite-looking man came looking for me. According to his business card, he was a senior financial manager at some well-known finance company. He introduced himself as Boss Zhou’s personal financial consultant…”

As far as he had gotten, Yan Shuyu could tell that what her little buddy was about to share with her was something fairly serious. She couldn’t help but interjected, “What did the boss’s personal financial consultant want to talk to you about?”

Yang Zifeng stopped abruptly and gave her a peculiar look. “You call Boss Zhou ‘boss’ in private? How interesting.”

Yan Shuyu, “……”

She had always been referring to Zhou Qinhe as boss in her mind but she had never divulged that to anyone. She had not only slipped and let her little buddy find out about her “term of endearment” for Boss Zhou but was also teased for it. Yan Shuyu suddenly blushed uncontrollably but said stubbornly. “Are you going to finish off what you were saying?”

After her multiple interruptions, Yang Zifeng had lost his interest to tease her. “I’ll make it simple. Naturally, this high and mighty financial guy came because his employer, your boss, asked him to. He said he likes my project and was willing to invest 20 million yuan for 40% ownership.”

Yan Shuyu didn’t care about being teased by her little buddy. All of her attention was on the business end.

Yan Shuyu knew nothing about business so she had no idea whether 20 million yuan for 40% ownership was a lot. She had, however, been with the boss long enough to go from the girl whose heart bled over the 2 million yuan check to the one who was not phased by 20 million yuan. She even asked curiously, “Do you not like the offer?”

“Of course I like it. I would never be able to get a better offer than this.” Yang Zifeng figured that she probably didn’t understand the nitty-gritty details so he explained to her in the simplest way possible. “Boss Zhou putting in 20 million but only asking for 40% ownership means that he would not be interfering with managerial decision in the future. That’s not an investment; that is closer to a charity case, alright?”

Yan Shuyu sort of got it but not really. She asked again, “So, did you accept the offer?”

Yang Zifeng shook his head and said, “I told them I will need a couple days to think it over?”

“Why?”

“Because he wasn’t asking for ownership for himself on his investment.” Yang Zifeng stopped and looked at Yan Shuyu without blinking at this point.

Stunned a little, Yan Shuyu asked uncertainly, “Don’t tell me it’s for me.”

“Congratulations. You figured it out.”

Yan Shuyu was stunned speechless. She had an inkling earlier but was still stunned when she heard the answer. The boss was going to spend 20 million on an investment for her? That was a large amount and she had no idea about it at all.

Yang Zifeng was still going on and on about it. “Per the gentleman, Boss Zhou indicated that we don’t need to let you know ahead of time. He has an authorization letter and we can just sign the contract. It looks like he was preparing for a surprise for you.”
