Chapter 151 Clash of Titans



After discussing their past grievances and grudges, the two returned to the topic of investing in a jewelry store. Lin Xiazhu hesitated because she only had about three million yuan in her savings account, and she planned to buy a few more houses in Beijing.

An apartment in the city is now estimated to cost at least 600,000 yuan. She plans to buy three apartments first, which will cost her about 2 million yuan. She will only have 1 million yuan left in the bank.

"I can only invest a maximum of 100,000 yuan, no more than that." Who knows if Yan Xin is cut out for business? Anyway, she used to run a clothing business, and I really couldn't see any talent for it.

"Two hundred thousand, I guarantee I can make money. You have to believe me. The initial investment for a jewelry store is definitely quite large. After all, a single piece of jewelry can cost over a million. I also need to open a processing factory." Yan Xin pleaded pitifully, her hands clasped together.

"The cost is too high. With our abundant financial resources, we might as well do something else." Buying a house is a safe bet; with future soaring property prices, we're guaranteed to make a profit.

"Are you planning to buy a house?" Yan Xin knew that this guy had made a lot of money selling Ganoderma lucidum, and he was very frugal in his daily life. Once the money was in her hands, it never went out.

“Well,” Lin Xiazhu felt there was nothing to hide, “Actually, it would be more cost-effective for you to ask your parents for money and buy a few more houses. You know very well what the housing prices will be like in the future.”

"But my family owns a lot of properties. We have several villas and quite a few apartments. Even though we have two younger sisters, I'll still get a lot of properties. I'm not interested in buying houses; I just want to open my own jewelry store." Yan Xin unintentionally showed off her wealth.

Lin Xiazhu was incredibly envious. Indeed, being born into the right family is a skill, something that ordinary people like her could never achieve.

"I want to go back to my dorm and sleep." I don't want to hear her flaunt her wealth.

“Let’s chat a little longer, don’t rush,” Yan smiled shrewdly. “My family owns a shop in the city center. It used to sell cosmetics, but business wasn’t great. I can have my mom give it to me…”

Actually, the cosmetics business was quite good, but the Yan family was rich and didn't care about the income of this one store. As far as Yan Xin knew, this cosmetics store had the lowest income of all the stores under the Yan family, so closing it was no big deal.

"If you're worried about losing money, I'll write you an IOU. If the jewelry store makes money in the future, I'll give you a share of the profits. If it loses money, consider this money a loan to you, and I promise to pay you back every penny. Okay?" Yan Xin continued to urge.

With that, there was nothing to worry about. Lin Xiazhu agreed, "You said it, let's write an IOU first. I'm very poor, and 200,000 is very important to me."

"I know, how could I not know? I've also worked my way up from the bottom for ten years. Don't worry, I don't owe anyone anything, not you." Haven't you learned your lesson before?

The two happily decided to collaborate. After finishing their business, they saw that it was still early, not even nine o'clock, so Yan Xin suggested they go to karaoke together.

"I don't want to go, I want to go back to my dorm," Lin Xiazhu said, indicating her refusal.

"We're going to high-end clubs. Ordinary people can't get in without a membership card. Only people in our circle can get in. I'll take you to broaden your horizons." Yan Xin was in a good mood and wanted to share her happiness with Lin Xiazhu.

"Next time, let's skip today. You've just recovered, so maybe you should keep a low profile and not cause trouble everywhere." Tomorrow is Saturday, and she has an appointment with the real estate agency to look at apartments, so she needs to get some rest early tonight.

Seeing that she really didn't want to go, Yan Xin didn't force her anymore. She took her arm and walked out, saying, "I'll take you home, but you must do me the honor of coming another day."

"I know, it seems that the ten years I spent at my house have been really tough on you. Now you're itching to make up for all the suffering you endured," Lin Xiazhu teased.

"Of course! Not only will I make up for all the suffering I've endured over the past ten years, but I'll also take you and Chacha and the others to enjoy a life of happiness." Yan Xin patted her chest and announced with boundless pride.

"Heh, shut up already. Do you really think you're our mother, wanting to lead us to wealth and prosperity? I appreciate your intentions, but don't try anything." Something just feels off.

Yan Xin laughed and put her arm around Lin Xiazhu's shoulder, feeling even better. Humans are truly strange creatures. In her previous life, she regarded Lin Xiazhu as a rival in love and a thorn in her side, but after experiencing ten years of time travel, her mindset had completely changed.

A few days ago, she met Chen Zisong. In her previous life, Chen Zisong was five years older than her and was the older brother she had a crush on. In this life, Chen Zisong is five years younger than her and is the younger brother she looks down on.

That's right. Now, when she sees Chen Zisong, who is only thirteen years old, it's hard to describe. Forget about having a crush on him, she just gets annoyed whenever she sees him. He's just a little kid, and he's so immature and rebellious.

In short, she can't like Chen Zisong at all right now, not because he's still young, but because she just doesn't like him.

If Chen Zisong hadn't been secretly in love with Lin Xiazhu and relentlessly pursued her, how could she have misunderstood Xiazhu, done so many stupid things to hurt her, and even angered her when she was so sick, ultimately causing her death?

She was doomed too, she was transported to another time and ended up as a mother and daughter for ten years, a truly heartbreaking story.

Xiaozhu is great, Chacha and Taozi are great too, and even the most scheming Lin Xiaoxue is adorable in her eyes. After ten years of getting along, she considers the Lin family as her true relatives, and she hopes they can all live well.

Lin Xiazhu was unaware of Yan Xin's complex and subtle feelings. She only felt that after returning to her true self, Yan Xin had rediscovered her innocence and happiness. She would no longer drift aimlessly and seek death, and her life was full of hope and anticipation.

Along the way, Yan Xin leaned her head on Lin Xiazhu's shoulder like a child, giggling every now and then. She was so happy that drool was practically dripping from the corner of her mouth.

When they arrived at Yenching University, the car stopped at the school gate. Yan Xin got out and walked her to her dormitory building. Just as she was about to say goodbye, she heard someone call out to her from behind, "Yan Xin, what are you doing here? Who let you come?"

Without turning around, Yan Xin knew from the voice that the person was her younger sister, Yan Shi, a genius girl of the Yan family. She could compose poetry at the age of ten, reached the tenth level of piano at the age of twelve, and was admitted to the Chinese Department of Yenching University at the age of sixteen. She had achieved a lot of honors at such a young age.

She just couldn't like him; in fact, she was quite annoying. On the surface, she seemed kinder than Yan Mei, but deep down they were the same kind of people, except the former was more cunning and the latter was less so.

"I'll call you another day, and we can have dinner together then. I'm heading back now, bye-bye." Yan Xin seemed not to hear Yan Shi's words, waved to Lin Xiazhu, and turned to leave.

"Yan Xin, don't you have any manners? Can't you hear me when I talk to you?" Yan Shi came back with Jiang Yuqing and Song Ling, and Yan Xin completely ignored her, which made her lose face.

"What are you yelling about? Nobody wants to talk to you if they hear you. Have some backbone and don't pay attention to them. It's pointless to offer your warm face to someone who doesn't reciprocate." Yan Xin mocked and then left.

Lin Xiazhu: Yan Shi is really Yan Xin's younger sister. What kind of fate is this?

"Hey, Lin Xiazhu, stop right there! How do you know that woman? Did she come looking for you?" Yan Shi called out to Lin Xiazhu and rushed in front of her.

"Let me tell you, if you dare tell her about me, I'll make you regret it."
