Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Ci got things done very fast. The next morning, a new post appeared on the trending searches. Lin Feng has a child?!

When s.h.i.+ Lu saw this trending topic, he even explained it to Yuan Shu. Lin Feng is the top celebrity of the Zhou familys entertainment company and has been quite popular during the past three years. The Zhou family spent all their resources on Lin Feng. For Li Ci to be able to get the Zhou family to push Lin Feng out as a scapegoat, it seems that their relations.h.i.+p isnt ordinary.

Yuan Shu nodded silently. She wasnt curious about their relations.h.i.+p at all.

After breakfast, Yuan Shu received a gift from Li Ci. It was actually a box of exquisitely wrapped white Silver Needles.

s.h.i.+ Lu looked at it curiously. Why would he give you a box of tea leaves? What did the two of you talk about yesterday afternoon?

Yuan Shu closed the lid of the box and said calmly, We didnt talk much. I just told him about my favorite tea leaves, so he got someone to send a box over. When do you plan to return to the production team?

s.h.i.+ Lu supported the back of his head with his uninjured hand and leaned against the sofa comfortably. Whats the hurry? This matter has been resolved, so Ill give myself a good break. The funds I spent these two days can be considered a lesson to the mastermind.

After Yuan Shu returned to the ancestral home, she would ask Wu Yan to prepare a large plate of fresh red strawberries every morning. After she picked one up and stuffed it into her mouth, the taste made her feel less tired from the morning run.

After eating a strawberry, Yuan Shu turned on the television and found the finance channel. As she watched, she said, Im going to invite Liu Lan to our house for lunch. Be mindful of your outfit. Dont dress too casually.

s.h.i.+ Lu looked at his cotton pajamas and asked, Dont I look good in this?

Its alright, but Liu Lan is a guest, so its better to change into another set of clothes.

s.h.i.+ Lu pouted, but didnt say anything else.

For the next morning, the two of them did their own things and didnt disturb each other. Yuan Shu focused on watching financial news while s.h.i.+ Lu watched a drama with his earphones on and honed his acting skills.

When it was almost noon, Yuan Shu received a call from s.h.i.+ Bin. He said that the investment plan had been completed and the doc.u.ment had been sent to Yuan Shu. This project had good potential for profit. Secondly, s.h.i.+ Bin still had cla.s.s in the afternoon, so he would stay in the dormitory at night and go home on the weekend.

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Shu opened the doc.u.ment in her email. Modern technology was indeed convenient. She could receive important letters in a few seconds. It was much more convenient than riding a fast horse.

After Yuan Shu finished reading the investment plan, she had a rough idea of what to do. Then, she walked to s.h.i.+ Lus side and patted his shoulder.

Seeing that Yuan Shu had something to say to her, s.h.i.+ Lu took out his headphones and sat to the side to make room for Yuan Shu.

Sister-in-law, do you have something to say?

Yuan Shu said calmly, I want to borrow some money from you.

s.h.i.+ Lu was shocked. Borrow money? Why? Is there no balance left on my brothers card?

Yuan Shu shook her head. Actually, she had been spending all her expenses from s.h.i.+ Xiaos card recently. This card had no limit and could be used anywhere. It was convenient, but there was one draw. She couldnt withdraw cash.

Most importantly, she wanted to invest so that she could have her own savings. If she used the s.h.i.+ familys money, things would be inconvenient. It would be simpler and more convenient to look for s.h.i.+ Lu.

Yuan Shu explained, You heard about the project that Tan Jing mentioned previously. I want to invest in it.

s.h.i.+ Lu frowned. But didnt you reject him back then?

So invest in it for me under someone elses name.

Liu Lan? s.h.i.+ Lu recalled that Liu Lan was coming for lunch today, and as far as he knew, Yuan Shu didnt have many friends, so it wasnt difficult to guess that this person was Liu Lan.

Yuan Shu nodded.

s.h.i.+ Lu knew that since Yuan Shu was willing to borrow money from him, she must trust him very much. Moreover, he believed in Yuan Shus judgment. Since Yuan Shu said that she wanted to invest, it must be a profitable business. Therefore, he didnt waste any time and asked directly, How much money do you need?

Yuan Shu wasnt surprised. She only asked because she knew that s.h.i.+ Lu would lend her money, but she didnt expect him to be so decisive.

One million..
