Despite Jin Yuanhao's many words, Zhang Baiyu seemed not to hear them, continuing to drink his tea with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Don't mention her. Focus on finishing your current project first."
If you want to compete with her, the most important thing is to show your dad some solid achievements.
Uncle Jin is a very rational person. As long as you perform better than Jin Shu, the chairman's position will definitely be yours.
Jin Yuanhao nodded repeatedly, speaking with conviction.
"I won't call you brother-in-law anymore, I'll call you Brother Yu from now on."
"Don't worry, Brother Yu, we've acquired such a great piece of land; we're bound to make a fortune! I'll definitely work hard and make sure everyone makes money!"
Making money is definitely something I need to do.
Most of the billions that Jin Yuanhao initially invested came from Zhang Baiyu.
He himself certainly couldn't come up with that much money in a short time, but fortunately, Chairman Ouyang, who had been hospitalized due to Jin Shu's anger, woke up.
Taking the opportunity, Zhang Baiyu went to visit him. With the famous artist's posthumous work as a stepping stone, Chairman Ouyang quickly put aside past grievances and helped Zhang Baiyu raise funds from celebrities in the art world.
With such a great project right in front of them, the celebrities were also thinking about making money from money. Moreover, with Chairman Ouyang's reputation as a guarantee, everyone took out their money and raised several billion for Zhang Baiyu in just a few days.
Zhang Baiyu then invested this money in Jin Yuanhao's company under his personal name, making him the largest investor in this multi-billion-dollar project.
Once the project is completed, the return on investment will definitely be high. The investors will split their money, and Zhang Baiyu will be able to sit back and enjoy dividends year after year.
In short, this is a gold mine; as long as you do it well, wealth and glory will be inexhaustible.
After the two toasted each other, the multi-billion dollar project began construction in earnest.
Jin Yuanhao was indeed determined to make a name for himself, so he simply built a villa next to the construction site and lived nearby.
Zhang Baiyu, the largest investor, has also been quite busy lately.
Because he is now not only Jin Yuanhao's sugar daddy, but also Mu Xixi's sugar daddy.
The club that MYC team belongs to was bought by Zhang Baiyu for 70 million.
He then generously invested another 50 million.
And so, the club, which had been struggling financially for almost half a year, was finally brought back to life.
As the biggest contributor, Mu Xixi naturally became the core figure of the club.
Of course, not everyone is happy about this.
When Ning Xuan learned that the person who invested in his club was Zhang Baiyu, he immediately went to Zhang Baiyu and asked him to withdraw his investment.
Two men, seemingly destined for each other, sit in a coffee shop, with Mu Xixi caught in the middle, torn between them.
"We'll have to sit down and have a good talk sooner or later, Captain Ning. A hero's back may be hard to bend, but your teammates don't want to stick with you and cling to that useless backbone."
My investment was indeed for Xixi.
But I won't force Xixi to do anything, because everything I do is to make things easier for her, and that's enough.
When Ning Xuan said this, his momentum had already weakened considerably.
He was tense all over. Even though he was holding hands with Mu Xixi, he had a vague feeling that he was about to lose his grip on her hand.
"Even without your investment, our club can overcome the difficulties. I've already signed with a live streaming platform, and as long as I stream well, we can..."
"Even if you stream well, what good will it do? Can you earn 20 million a year to maintain the club's normal operation?"
Esports clubs are money-burning ventures; without money, everything else is meaningless.
Ning Xuan, it's one thing for you to suffer alone, but are you going to drag others down with you?
Ning Xuan suffered a crushing defeat in this battle.
A 21-year-old man, full of passion and with a bright future, is utterly defeated by a successful 30-year-old man.
He never imagined that his love would ultimately be defeated by reality.
He's already at the pinnacle of his industry; he's already achieved financial freedom and can give his loved one the life she wants.
But he didn't expect that his lover wanted more.
After the chat ended, Ning Xuan left the club and the MYC team, and left the city.
Mu Xixi cried terribly that day.
She was so drunk she was unconscious, clinging to Zhang Baiyu and repeatedly calling out another man's name. Her helpless appearance was like that of a lost little animal, making Zhang Baiyu's heart ache as if it were about to break.
That night, he carried Mu Xixi home and whispered something in her ear.
"Xixi, I'll divorce Jin Shu when she comes back, and we'll remarry."
Mu Xixi seemed to have been deeply hurt by Ning Xuan. She looked at Zhang Baiyu with red eyes and then slowly nodded.
Tonight, the two lovers will be reunited.
This rare moment of losing control made Zhang Baiyu lose his mind, and he didn't even answer a single one of the dozens of calls Jin Yuanhao made to him.
The next morning, Zhang Baiyu was awakened by a series of urgent knocks on the door.
Mu Xixi snuggled closer to him unhappily. Before Zhang Baiyu could even melt away his heart, he heard a frantic, hoarse voice knocking on the door outside.
"Brother Yu!! Brother Yu!! Wake up!! Something terrible has happened!"
Is this Jin Yuanhao's voice?
How did he end up in his house? And how did he manage to walk through the villa's gate, go upstairs, and knock on his bedroom door?
Zhang Baiyu realized something was wrong and immediately got out of bed.
Mu Xixi grabbed him.
"Where are you going? Don't go, stay and sleep with me a little longer, okay?"
Mu Xixi acted coquettishly towards Zhang Baiyu.
Today is the first day she has accepted Zhang Baiyu again. In the heat of their relationship, she naturally can't help but want to act coquettishly and let the man coax her like he did last night.
Before she could even reach out, Zhang Baiyu pushed her hand away. His voice was still gentle, but his tone betrayed a hint of impatience.
“My business partner came to see me. I guess something big has happened at the company. I’ll go out and take a look.”
Mu Xixi was also startled by the knocking. Before she could get angry, she quickly wrapped herself in the blanket and watched Zhang Baiyu open the door.
Jin Yuanhao stood outside the door, his expression one of terror and helplessness, as if his father had died.
"Brother Yu! Something terrible has happened!! The land we bought has been found to have dangerously high levels of harmful metals, making it completely uninhabitable!"
Jin Yuanhao couldn't wait to utter a string of words, which made Zhang Baiyu's head spin.
"What? Speak slowly!"
Jin Yuanhao swallowed hard, then grabbed Zhang Baiyu's arm, his eyes filled with terror.
"Our superiors suddenly sent people down to inspect the safety, and they found more than 500 milligrams of harmful heavy metals in the soil samples! Now our project has been halted, and the higher-ups won't allow us to build a residential area on this land!"
