After being reborn, I'm no longer going to play the role of a spoiled rich kid.

Chapter 66 The $7000 Million Fool

Jiang Lingyu could guess that Hu Baoshan wanted to use the Shiyuanyi store to expand her business, and probably also for her older brother's sake.

After all, there was a Shi Yuan Yi restaurant near the Jiang family's office building.

If Hu Baoshan marries into the family, acquiring ownership of this store will only bring benefits, not harm.

Yuska knew this too.

She hadn't had any particular thoughts before, but now that Hu Baoshan had brought it up and the other party wanted the Food Yuan Yi in her possession, she certainly couldn't be polite.

“I want all of your shares in the Holy Court,” Yustja said.

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Lingyu released the hand that was gripping her lower back.

"Are you crazy?!" Hu Baoshan's expression changed instantly.

Yusjia remained calm. "The market valuation of Shiyuanyi might be slightly lower than the shares of Shengting you hold, but not by much. Since you want what's mine, and the prize you're offering can't entice me, don't expect me to agree."

Yu Sijia simply stared at Hu Baoshan's face, waiting for the latter to make a decision.

Anyway, even if Hu Baoshan doesn't agree, she won't lose anything.

"Forget it, Jiajia. You know that the only valuable thing she might have is her shares in Shengting. If she uses that as a bet and loses, Baoshan will be crying all the way home," Jiang Lingyu advised with a smile.

Hu Baoshan's face turned even uglier.

She knew Jiang Lingyu's words were a provocation, but she was shamefully provoked.

"Fine!" Hu Baoshan gritted her teeth. "I agree, but the shares in Holy Court aren't so easy to take away."

She doesn't think she's bound to lose.

Yuska: "Words are no proof, why not draw up a written agreement?"

Hu Baoshan's eyes held a hint of disdain. "Jiajia, you don't believe me?"

Yusjia smiled and said, "I was just thinking that if we lose, and someone wants to back out, we can have a written agreement so that no one has to make a scene."

Although Hu Baoshan was somewhat dissatisfied, she had to admit that You Sijia's words made a lot of sense.

This written agreement binds not only her.

There are also horse farms in the south, but most of Yusjia's horses are kept in the port city, so the group planned to go to the port city first.

When they went to the port city, You Sijia let Jiang Lingyu get into her white Lamborghini.

"You've really gone too far this time," Jiang Lingyu said as soon as she got into the car.

It wasn't that she thought Shi Yuan Yi was worth a lot, or that she would feel bad if Yu Sijia really lost; rather, she knew that Shi Yuan Yi meant something different to Yu Sijia.

Although Yu Sijia doesn't frequent Yuan Yi Restaurant, she has drastically renovated its interior since taking over the business.

Few people question the aesthetic sense of the young lady who studied art, and it turns out that the modified Shi Yuan Yi is more popular.

The interior decoration has undergone a major change. Another change is that Yu Sijia has set up a private room in each of the Shi Yuan Yi restaurants that is not open to the public and can only be accessed by Yu Saide and Yu Kuiqing.

Yu Sijia drove the car out of the parking space with one hand. Upon hearing this, she said, "Fortune favors the bold. There's no such thing as a free lunch. Since Hu Baoshan brought it up, I might as well take advantage of the situation and acquire their shares in Holy Court."

The Holy Court is a high-end chain hotel, an industry owned by the Hu family in addition to their jewelry business, and it generates considerable profits every year.

However, the Shengting Hotel was originally Mrs. Hu's dowry. Mrs. Hu was a capable woman who spent ten years transforming Shengting into one of the top hotels in the country. If it weren't for Hu Baoshan being Mrs. Hu's biological daughter, the shares might not have ended up in her hands.

“Since you have a plan, I won’t say more. If you can really take away the shares of Shengting from Hu Baoshan, she’ll probably be in for a beating when she gets back.” Jiang Lingyu couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

If Hu Baoshan really got together with her older brother, she couldn't help but feel happy just thinking about how the things in Hu Baoshan's hands would become You Sijia's.

Yusika stepped on the gas and overtook the car in front, speeding away. "Aren't you worried I'll lose to her now?"

Jiang Lingyu: "What am I worried about? What's the use of worrying now?"

Yu Sijia chuckled and then said, "Hu Baoshan recently bought a thoroughbred American horse at a high price. It only arrived in Hong Kong last month. That horse performed very well in the races before, and I guess she wants to use it to race against me today."

"Then why do you still look so calm?" Jiang Lingyu asked.

Yustia chuckled twice more, seemingly a little smug. "There's something wrong with that horse," she whispered.

Although it was just her and Jiang Lingyu in the car, they spoke as if they were whispering, afraid of being overheard.

Jiang Lingyu was genuinely surprised. "Weren't you very busy last month? How did you know this?"

"I just remembered that too," Yu Sijia said. When she was with Meng Weiyuan, he would take the initiative to find topics that interested her. Knowing that she had a racecourse and horse racing in the port city, Meng Weiyuan also talked to her about horse racing.

Yu Sijia was somewhat surprised, because Meng Weiyuan seemed to be someone who was completely focused on his career and wouldn't have any interest in messy entertainment activities like horse racing.

But Meng Weiyuan understood it very well.

He also knows many good horse racers and is a frequent guest at many clubs.

“Meng Weiyuan said the horse buying market is murky. Last month, someone in Kentucky bought last year’s champion horse for $70 million. But the horse was pregnant, and the buyer didn’t know. $70 million is too high; he was clearly taken advantage of and ripped off,” Yusjia said.

She genuinely didn't know that Hu Baoshan was the sucker, because Hu Baoshan had specifically "kindly reminded" her when she came out of the shop that she should choose her horse carefully for the race, otherwise it would be difficult to beat her.

Although Jiang Lingyu was a big spender, he was stunned when he heard that Hu Baoshan had spent seventy million US dollars to buy a pregnant mare.

Didn't she suspect anything?

You Sijia: "Meng Weiyuan said that someone set up a trap at the time. When there are people vying for something, it always gives people the illusion that it is a good thing. The other side offered a very high price, and it was someone from the club who set up the trap, so Hu Baoshan suffered a loss."

Jiang Lingyu didn't know what to say for a moment.

It sounds like Hu Baoshan is having a bit of bad luck.

“Then you can’t let your guard down.” Jiang Lingyu reached out and touched the perfume in Yusjia’s car. It was the same perfume she had given to Acqua di Parma last time; it was a woody scent. “After all, it was the champion of the previous year.”

Yustya hummed in agreement.

Soon, the group arrived at the racetrack.

The horse that Yuska is going to ride today, she bought two years ago. It's a thoroughbred and has dedicated staff to care for it. When she has free time in the port city, she'll take it out for a couple of rides.

The horse has performed very well in recent races.

I wonder what the outcome will be in today's competition with Hu Baoshan.

Yuska went to change her clothes first.
