Seeing that she kept staring at him, Jiang Yuheng had no choice but to speak.
"The young lady from that company wants to be my girlfriend, but I..."
Immediately, a look of understanding crossed Jiang Ningxi's face.
Some people chuckled and said, "A rich girl likes you and wants to be with you. Isn't that you getting the better deal? And you actually refused!"
"Brother Er Gou, I think you're being a bit ungrateful!"
She paused, then continued, "If I were to invest, wouldn't that ruin your plans?"
Her words successfully darkened Jiang Yuheng's expression, and he almost crushed the cup in his hand.
"What kind of time is this to be making sarcastic remarks?"
Jiang Ningxi glanced at the white porcelain cup in his hand.
"If you break the cup, you'll have to pay for it."
Immediately, Jiang Yuheng released his grip.
Then, Jiang Ningxi asked again, "You still haven't said why you met with Shen Qingyu just now."
"There's no way she could be that rich girl who's been bothering you. That's impossible."
Jiang Yuheng asked curiously, "How can you be so sure it wasn't her?"
"Because she doesn't like men," Jiang Ningxi continued, sipping her tea.
Jiang Yuheng: "...No wonder she asked me out to tell me that the marriage agreement between our two families was invalid."
Although he has no immediate interest in marriage.
Jiang Ningxi's eyes widened instantly, and she almost spat out her tea. "You two are engaged?"
Is this in the novel? Probably not!
Jiang Yuheng immediately explained, "It was just a joke between our two families' elders when we were young. I didn't expect that Old Master Shen would still remember it."
"I happened to be out of the lab today, and Shen Qingyu asked to meet me to talk about this."
"She meant she didn't want anything to develop between us, and coincidentally, that's what I thought too, so we reached a consensus!"
He paused, then continued, "I've told you everything you wanted to know. So, what do you say, whether you want to invest in my lab or not?"
Jiang Ningxi raised her hand and looked at the watch on her wrist.
Almost thirty minutes have already been wasted.
It wouldn't be good to keep Xie Jinxing waiting any longer.
So he said, "You know I'm not one to suffer losses."
Before she could finish speaking...
Jiang Yuheng replied, "I know."
"We're all family, of course I won't let you suffer a loss."
"I guarantee that if my experiment succeeds, the return I give you will be even greater than what I gave to the previous investment company."
Jiang Ningxi smiled and said, "Let's talk about how much it will cost first."
Jiang Yuheng looked at her, lowered his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Investment in the laboratory cannot be done in a short time."
"You don't need to bear all the investment; I will find other investors later."
He had just gotten to this point when...
Jiang Ningxi raised her hand to interrupt him.
"There's no need to find other investors, to avoid the trouble of withdrawal of investment again."
“I admit that I can’t invest a huge sum of money into your lab right now, but it won’t be a small amount.”
"I can give you 30 million right now."
She decided to find an auction house later and auction off the crown that Jiang Yuchuan had given her.
Anyway, that crown was once used in a toilet, so she wouldn't wear it.
If Jiang Yuheng can really develop the drug, it will benefit mankind.
That's enough.
"With a current investment of 30 million, I can continue my research."
"only."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Ningxi raised her hand to interrupt him again.
"I know what you mean, thirty million is only enough for you right now, right?"
"I know very well that the lab is an expensive place."
"Don't worry, I'm richer than you think."
"Just tell me if you run out of money later, and I'll support you!"
In that instant, Jiang Yuheng inexplicably sensed a domineering aura emanating from this slender and graceful younger sister.
He chuckled and said, "Okay! I'll remember that."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person next to him stood up.
Looking down at him.
"I have an appointment to have dinner with someone, you should go back first."
"Who? Can't I come along?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Jiang Yuheng's eyes.
Jiang Ningxi stared at him for a moment before answering, "Xie Jinxing."
"You haven't cured his headache yet?" Jiang Yuheng raised his hand to adjust the gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge.
His eyes revealed an expression that seemed to know everything.
Jiang Ningxi chuckled, "If he's already cured, then it won't just be a simple matter of him inviting me to dinner."
"How about it, want to come along? I certainly wouldn't mind."
“Go, why wouldn’t I go!” Jiang Yuheng slowly stood up and adjusted his trench coat slightly.
Jiang Ningxi glanced at him.
Do you think I don't know you're just trying to freeload a meal?!
Jiang Yuheng: ...
Fortunately, it was what I truly felt, so he didn't have to refute me.
Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to say.
He can't afford to offend this younger sister now.
Otherwise, what if they don't invest in his lab?
Soon, they arrived at the private room on the second floor where Xie Jinxing was.
However, before they even went inside, Jiang Yuheng suddenly asked with some curiosity.
"You just ate a whole basket of steamed buns, how can you still eat rice?"
“I could eat a few more baskets of steamed buns!” Jiang Ningxi replied.
After saying that, he raised his hand and pushed open the door to the private room.
Xie Jinxing, who was sitting with his legs crossed at the round table waiting, looked up when he heard the sound.
When they saw the person behind Jiang Ningxi.
