Chapter 404 Completely Different from the Outside World
If Shi Nian and Fu Jinyan don't contribute, he simply won't be able to raise the funds.
If Shi Nian hadn't resolved Gu Qian's mother's issue, who knows what Yu Yan would be like now!
Xu Cheng scoffed, "They change their tune so quickly, as if I have to do whatever they want me to do. Ha... Why should I!"
Moreover, his seemingly "obedient" opening up of financing can be considered as avoiding offending anyone, which is beneficial to both him and Yuyan.
Hearing Xu Cheng say this, Shi Nian nodded and said, "I understand."
She didn't say what she was going to do, and no one else asked.
Since it doesn't matter whether they come or not, if Shi Nian doesn't want it, Fu Jinyan will take care of everything.
Fu Jinyan could easily swallow the entire 150 million.
This is the main topic we'll be discussing this matter.
Then, Xu Cheng happily told them, "We've already received a lot of cooperation intentions. In a while, I'll go around talking to various people and see if we can all make money together!"
"Haha, I like what you said!" Fu Jinyan said with a laugh, then raised his glass.
Shi Nian and others were also there.
While everyone was still chatting, Shi Nian asked them to keep an eye on Si Si while she went to the restroom.
When she came out, she ran into Sun Jiaming.
"Can we talk?" Sun Jiaming asked.
Seeing Sun Jiaming's conflicted expression, Shi Nian nodded.
Actually, even if Sun Jiaming hadn't contacted her, she would have found a suitable opportunity to clarify some things.
It would be better if Sun Jiaming came to find her first.
The two of them went to a bar where no one was.
Sun Jiaming was conflicted the whole way.
Just now in the private room, Xu Cheng and the others didn't hide anything from each other.
This allowed Sun Jiaming to learn the whole story, the issues between Xu Cheng and Gu Qian, and Shi Nianzai Yu Yan's contributions.
And... Fu Jinyan caught the pie that fell from the sky.
This was completely different from the phone call she received today.
Seeing that Sun Jiaming looked uneasy, Shi Nian reached out and poured her a glass of warm water.
"What's wrong?" Shi Nian asked. "You don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?"
Sun Jiaming took the warm water and shook her head: "No."
After thinking for a moment, she still spoke up: "Niannian, actually, Jinyan and I had a fight during the day."
Shi Nian did not interrupt Sun Jiaming, but looked at her gently.
“Someone called me and said that you’re a womanizer, that even though you’re with Huo Yanmo, you’re still clinging to Jin Yan.”
As Sun Jiaming spoke, her expression grew even more grim: "She also said that everything you obtained was through such means, both for 'The Voice of Heaven' and for Yu Yan."
“They also provided a lot of supporting evidence, but I…” Sun Jiaming stammered, “Well… it’s my fault. I only listened to one side of the story. Now that I’ve actually met you, I realize that’s not the case.”
What Lu Xinyi said on the phone seemed to make a lot of sense.
The Shi family is long gone. How could Shi Nian, an orphan, obtain those things? It was all thanks to her beauty and her seductive skills in maneuvering among men.
But what she learned in the private room just now completely changed her mind.
It wasn't what she got from men, but what she gave to them.
Without Shi Nian resolving Yu Yan's issues, Yu Yan wouldn't have made the progress it has today.
If Shi Nian hadn't dragged Fu Jinyan into the investment, Fu Jinyan wouldn't have received this windfall.
That's the opposite.
Completely the opposite!
Shi Nian simply doesn't speak up or take the lead.
Now, thinking back to what Fu Jinyan had told her before, it was because of her collaboration with Shi Nian that "The Voice of Heaven" was able to gain a foothold in Fu's company.
She had always thought Fu Jinyan was exaggerating, but now it seems that it might actually be true.
Because she could tell that Shi Nian really had no feelings for Fu Jinyan at all.
Upon hearing Sun Jiaming's words, Shi Nian suddenly understood what had happened with the phone call Fu Jinyan had made during the day.
It's obvious who spread the rumor.
Lu Xinyi.
Thinking about it, Shi Nian lowered her eyes slightly and chuckled softly.
"Don't overthink it," Shi Nian comforted her. "Actually, I also wanted to find an opportunity to make things clear to you. There's nothing between me and Brother Jin Yan."
"You're his girlfriend, so it's perfectly normal for you to be thinking about these things."
Shi Nian looked earnestly into Sun Jiaming's eyes and said gently, "You love him, that's why you care about him."
“But I…” Sun Jiaming felt even more guilty, “I’m sorry.”
Shi Nian smiled and reached out to hold Sun Jiaming's hand.
She thought Sun Jiaming was wonderful.
She had explained it to Lu Xinyi so many times, but Lu Xinyi just wouldn't listen.
Sun Jiaming is a normal person.
"You don't need to apologize to me," Shi Nian said with a smile. "We're both women, I understand."
Sun Jiaming looked at Shi Nian.
Shi Nian nodded vigorously: "I really understand."
Misunderstandings and jealousy are perfectly normal in love.
Sun Jiaming went to question Fu Jinyan instead of taking her anger out on her, and she was even willing to listen to his explanation, which is great.
Looking at Shi Nian's sincere expression, Sun Jiaming recalled the gossip between Shi Nian and Lu Yanzhi.
Thinking back to when Lu Yanzhi and Han Wei were always together, and all sorts of things happened.
She understood.
Just like Shi Nian said, Shi Nian really understands.
This sentence comes from Shi Nianzhen's heart.
This made Sun Jiaming's eyes slightly warm.
Indeed, just as Fu Jinyan said.
She thought Shi Nian was very good.
It's completely different from what's been rumored outside.
Thinking about it, Sun Jiaming smiled and squeezed Shi Nian's hand tightly.
No further words were needed; both of them understood.
The two walked back together. After thinking for a moment, Sun Jiaming reminded her, "Niannian, be careful of Lu Xinyi."
"Yes," Shi Nian nodded. "I will."
When Shi Nian returned to the private room, she found that Huo Yanmo had arrived.
Right now, I'm sitting next to Sisi, wiping the rice grains off her face.
Hearing the noise, Huo Yanmo looked up and smiled at them.
After greeting everyone, Huo Yanmo pulled out a chair for Shi Nian to sit down.
There was a plate next to him.
"Here you go, I've skewered it for you." Huo Yanmo said, with a skewer of peeled shrimp on a plate beside him.
Shi Nian sat down, poured the dipping sauce over his shrimp, and then took a big bite.
This is a little hobby they've been enjoying together lately.
I like to peel the shrimp, then skewer them and eat them.
"Delicious!" Shi Nian said with a smile.
Huo Yanmo smiled and nodded, then reached out to peel shrimp for her. The two huddled together, discussing the new dipping sauce recipe they had recently discovered.
The two got along very naturally.
Sun Jiaming was stunned by what she saw.
Is this Huo Yanmo?
Huo Yanmo, president of the Huo Group, one of the three major corporations in City A?
Although it was previously said that Huo Yanmo was pursuing Shi Nian, not many people knew that the two interacted in private.
Huo Yanmo, a big CEO, is taking care of a child and even peeling shrimp for Shi Nian. Moreover, his hands-on skills seem to indicate that he has always done this, and it is their daily routine.
