Chapter 664 Love-Struck Brains Make Him the World's Richest Man (23)

"Alright, alright, since you're determined to do a good job, then put all your effort into it these next few years!"

"If you need anything, just tell me, or you can talk to your sister. We're all family, and we should help each other out."

Everyone was silently observing Jin Shu's expression, but she kept her head down, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.

Seeing her like this, Jin Yuanhao finally felt a surge of satisfaction.

After the meeting, Jin Yuanhao and Jin Shu entered the same elevator, while the others followed Jin Shengguo to the project site.

With two cameras pointed at the elevator, Jin Yuanhao was emboldened.

"Jin Shu, there's a long road ahead. Don't worry, this isn't your last failure."

Jin Shu turned around, her gaze slowly fixed on him, her face expressionless.

"You guessed my bid price perfectly."

Jin Shu just found out that she offered 2.3 billion for that piece of land, while Jin Yuanhao offered exactly 50 million more.

What is 50 million in the context of a project worth billions?

Not to mention that this project is one of the best investment projects in the country right now, and the future returns are almost within reach. If it can be done well, then you can basically just sit back and wait to collect money, and making more than ten times the initial investment is not a problem.

She had been in contact with it since the original owner was still alive.

Only after Jin Shu arrived did they establish a good relationship to secure the deal.

However, at the last minute, a problem arose with the bidding price.

Jin Yuanhao knew without a doubt how furious Jin Shu must be at this moment.

"Jin Shu, didn't your mother teach you the concept of 'all's fair in war'? I'll slowly take back what you took from me before."

This is just the beginning, Jin Shu. You have a long road ahead of you.

You... lowly bastard."

Jin Shu smiled, slowly spat out the chewing gum she had been chewing, and flicked it with a single finger, accurately sticking it to the camera in the corner.

Jin Yuanhao hadn't reacted yet, but when he saw Jin Shu slowly put down the bag in her hand, his still-healing wound suddenly throbbed with pain, and a nameless panic surged up. He subconsciously reached for the elevator button, but Jin Shu beat him to it and pressed the button for the elevator reserved for leaders, sending it to the lowest floor.

"This elevator is great; you need to swipe a card to get in."

Jin Shu slowly walked forward, grabbing Jin Yuanhao's collar as she spoke, and with a forceful lift, she easily lifted the 1.7-meter-tall, 180-pound Jin Yuanhao up.

Jin Yuanhao's voice trembled as he struggled violently.

"Jin Shu!! You dare!! You dare touch me and see what happens!!"

Jin Shu nodded.

"Let's give it a try."

After saying that, he kicked Jin Yuanhao into a corner.

"Jin Shu...you, you don't...ah—!! My head!! Don't kick my head!!"

In three minutes, the elevator went up and down fifty floors three times.

When the elevator doors finally opened, Jin Shu walked out gracefully, carrying her bag.

Along the way, employees greeted her, and Jin Shu responded with a smile.

Even after Jin Yuanhao, who had been beaten to a pulp, was discovered, no one suspected Jin Shu.

According to Jin Shengguo's philosophy, family members should not air their dirty laundry in public. Anything that can be resolved internally should never be exposed to the public.

Liu Yan cried until her voice was hoarse, and she hugged Jin Yuanhao and cried her heart out.

How could she accept that her son, whom she had raised with such care, was being beaten repeatedly?

Jin Shengguo was also somewhat displeased. He called Jin Shu, intending to reprimand her, but before he could even speak, Jin Shu steered the conversation in two sentences.

——

Because the news of Jin Yuanhao's failed bid quickly made headlines, many onlookers, seeing that Jin Yuanhao had snatched such a large project from Jin Shu, began to speculate about who would ultimately inherit the Jin family's business.

While at work, Jin Shu received several calls from business partners who, after exchanging pleasantries, still inquired about the project.

After all, everyone thought that Jin Shu had long coveted that piece of land in the south of the city. She had mentioned to her friends more than once that she wanted to acquire the land and develop it into a high-end residential area.

Indeed, that location faces away from the city center. Once a road leading into the city is built, this area will become a beautiful and secluded paradise.

It's perfect for developing high-end projects.

Many investors were waiting to invest in Jin Shu and then get a share of the profits. Now that the project has fallen into Jin Yuanhao's hands, they have no choice but to contact him.

After all, where your money is, your friends will be too.

Jin Shu knew this all too well.

Tsai Chin, who had always lived separately from Jin Shu, surprisingly came to the company to see her.

To the outside world, Tsai Chin always said that she was just a relative of Chin Shu and never revealed the true relationship between the two to anyone.

Inside the office, Tsai Chin wore a pink and white haute couture cheongsam, her hair piled high, which accentuated her elegant and noble appearance. Anyone who saw her couldn't help but wonder which socialite she was.

Since Jin Shu was accepted by Jin Shengguo, Cai Qin's life has become much easier.

She thought her plan, which she had been scheming for years, was about to succeed, but when she saw the financial news today, she immediately rushed to Jin Shu's company.

She frowned, just like the original owner of this body did when she didn't do well on a test when she was a child, her expression solemn as if the world was about to be destroyed.

The atmosphere became incredibly oppressive.

Jin Shu could feel her body tensing up subconsciously, and her breathing became labored.

Isn't this the gaslighting effect? ​​As a mother, Tsai Chin never laid a hand on the original owner, but she could make the original owner collapse and explode instantly with just a look, a sigh, or a simple frown.

To outsiders, they would sympathize with this poor mother, who had devoted herself to raising such a heartless and ungrateful child.

But only the original owner and Tsai Chin understood what that look and that sigh truly meant.

This is a kind of subtle emotional abuse and imprisonment. Long before the original owner could only rely on Tsai Chin to survive, Tsai Chin began to manipulate the original owner's emotions.

She wouldn't say things like, "You're not good enough," "You're not working hard enough," or "You've disappointed me so much."

Instead, it would silently stare at the original owner, neither eating nor drinking, neither moving nor smelling, looking at her with an extremely cold and disappointed gaze, accompanied by sighs and frowns, repeating this tens of thousands of times.

Until the original owner, who was a rational and composed person in the eyes of outsiders, suddenly broke down and went crazy because of her simple expression and action.

This time is no different.

Tsai Chin sat there, but it was as if she was holding an invisible whip, lashing Jin Shu wildly.

Jin Shu took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and tried her best to suppress the panic and self-doubt hidden deep in the original owner's heart.
