Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Su Xuan is Extremely Flustered (Part 5)_1
"My assets include... Lycar... Kangnai... Caranda... Meisi..."
In the tightly closed office, Su Xuan disclosed his financial situation to Ning Yunshi, leaving her mouth agape in shock.
Actually, she hadn’t held Su Xuan in high regard to begin with. The trepidation she had shown in his presence was nothing more than the proper attitude a subordinate should display to their superior. She had assumed Su Xuan was probably the scion or representative of some wealthy consortium and had acquired 52% of TQ’s shares merely to bolster his own experience in capital operations. She believed Su Xuan himself wasn’t particularly capable. But that was until she heard what he had to say...
"Oh!" Su Xuan suddenly remembered something. He pulled out his phone and opened a text message to show Ning Yunshi. "I still have nine hundred million in cash in my account. It was originally a billion, but I donated a hundred million to my teachers and school..."
Ning Yunshi almost fainted when she heard this.
Forget about casually having nine hundred million or a billion on a single card! And forget about donating a hundred million to your teachers and school! How could you let so much cash... just sit there so mundanely in an account?! Is it to live off the interest? Or just for fun? Do you have so much money that you disdain investment, that you can’t be bothered to make your money work for you?
At this moment, she was truly and completely impressed by him. Su Xuan was indeed... remarkable! Besides, based on her estimates, Su Xuan’s assets had already surpassed sixty billion!
Ning Yunshi rubbed her chest, feeling a pang of distress. "Boss, if you entrust TQ with these nine hundred million for capital operations, I guarantee that in less than half a year, your nine hundred million will become one billion, one point two billion, one point five billion... It could even double!
"I have so many high-profit, legal projects that are in desperate need of significant funding! Many projects have already brought TQ double, or even triple or quadruple, returns! Last year, we invested in an overseas electric vehicle project, and that company’s market value has grown several times over, surpassing the traditional automotive giant, Toyota!"
Su Xuan’s eyes lit up. He spread his hands. "In that case, take my assets and have some fun with them." He then quickly added, "But remember to protect the principal. It’s not easy for me to make money."
Ning Yunshi nodded repeatedly, murmuring softly, "Okay, okay. I’ll take them and have fun. I’ll make sure your principal is safe..."
「...」
"HA!" Su Xuan heaved a long sigh of relief as he walked out of the TQ building. "Being a hands-off manager is so relaxing!"
One of his major worries had finally been resolved. If it weren’t for TQ and Ning Yunshi, his wealth would have remained a pool of stagnant water. Now, it had been revitalized all at once, ready to generate more money for him! He looked forward to seeing his fortune appreciate exponentially in a short period.
Now, it was time to get back to business and continue delivering packages.
Around six in the evening, he finished his deliveries and was about to call it a day when he suddenly remembered something: Aunty Zhang had set up a blind date for him! He had promised her he would at least show up as a formality. The meeting was scheduled for seven o’clock. With that, he took out his phone and added the girl on WeChat.
Su Xuan: "Where are you?"
Girl: "Go to the Shangtian Island Coffee on Finance Street and wait for me!"
Su Xuan: "Okay!"
Finance Street again. TQ was located there, too!
Su Xuan drove his Charman to the agreed-upon location. To ensure the girl would lose interest immediately, he intentionally didn’t change into nicer clothes and was still wearing his delivery uniform. He planned for her to reject him on sight.
He entered the coffee shop and saw only one girl inside, who looked to be in her early twenties. No need to guess, it has to be her.
The girl, on the other hand, was dressed quite decently. She had long, straight black hair, wore a pleated skirt, and had light makeup on, giving her a very refined appearance.
"Sorry for the wait!" Su Xuan plopped down in front of her and said casually, "Uh... so, since this is a blind date, what are your requirements for me?"
The girl blinked her large eyes, which darted about as she sized him up. Her expression was an unreadable mix of surprise and astonishment. Instead of answering his question, she blurted out, "Wow, you’re really handsome!" She even used a respectful form of ’you’!
Su Xuan’s face fell. "Don’t be fooled by my appearance. More than one person has called me a scumbag. Now, tell me, what are your requirements?"
The girl shook her head. "I wouldn’t dare make any demands of you. All that matters is that you don’t look down on me!"
Damn! Su Xuan was stunned. This girl doesn’t play by the rules. She’s on a whole other level!
"I’m just a courier," Su Xuan said. "I’m out in the wind and rain every day and don’t make much money."
Cradling her face in her hands, the girl gazed at him. "I don’t mind."
"I often get cussed out and bullied while making deliveries, so I’m frequently in a bad mood," Su Xuan continued. "If we get together, I might come home from work and just start yelling at you!"
"You’d have every right to yell at me," she replied.
Su Xuan was speechless. Could this girl have psychological problems? How can she tolerate that?
"I don’t have a house or a car, just a tricycle for deliveries!" Su Xuan pressed on.
"I have them," the girl said.
"I can’t cook, so you’d have to do it all. You’d be dealing with soot and smoke every day and would quickly become haggard and worn-out!"
"How romantic!" the girl exclaimed.
Su Xuan was speechless again. It’s over! It’s hopeless! This girl is unbeatable! This whole formality is turning into a real nightmare!
Taking a deep breath, Su Xuan was forced to see her as a formidable adversary. He played his trump card, declaring fiercely, "Both of my parents are still alive, but they have dementia. If you’re with me, you’ll not only have to take care of me and put up with my foul temper, but you’ll also have to look after them, which includes cleaning up after their bathroom accidents!" This was his ultimate move.
Most girls wouldn’t be able to tolerate that. Getting into a relationship only to start taking care of his parents before even enjoying any of the good parts? You might as well just hire a nurse!
But the girl just smiled cheerfully and said, "Taking care of the elderly is a traditional virtue. It’s something everyone should do!"
I give up! Su Xuan felt dizzy. Are girls these days really this sensible?
Taking another deep breath, Su Xuan said in a grave tone, "I’ve been delivering packages all day, and now I’m thirsty and hungry. Order some food and drinks for me. I don’t have any money on me, and I definitely won’t be going Dutch. You’ll be paying, and that’s how it’s going to be from now on!"
"That’s no problem at all," the girl replied. "As long as you’re happy!"
The girl then called a server over and placed an order. Suddenly, a thought struck Su Xuan, and he looked at her warily. "You’re not one of those cafe scammers, are you? Are a few burly guys going to show up and force me to pay an outrageous bill?"
The girl giggled. "I didn’t order any alcohol! And I’m not trying to deceive you. I can show you my ID if you want."
Su Xuan waved his hand. "No need!"
He was panicking internally now. If he couldn’t pull out another trump card, this blind date would actually be a success! Still, he had to admit, a girl like this was actually pretty great.
Just then, another woman walked over and sat down next to the girl.
The moment Su Xuan saw this woman, he froze.
The woman, upon seeing Su Xuan, froze as well.
"You..."
"You..."
They stared at each other, utterly speechless.
