My mother-in-law is remarrying and wants my family's assets as dowry. Die!

Ding Yuxin was not only very pleased with Yan Ran's flattery, but also felt a little smug.

Aside from her illness, Lin Jun is indeed a very good partner in other aspects.

His ability to navigate such a dire situation, beset by internal and external troubles, with such skill and foresight demonstrates his exceptional intelligence and vision.

It's just a pity that I'm not good at that!

However, her own needs in that area were too strong; otherwise, Ding Yuxin would definitely have been willing to marry him.

Yan Ran saw the gleam in Ding Yuxin's eyes and secretly curled her lip in her heart.

What an arrogant and stupid woman! She got all high and mighty after I just praised her a few times.

He deserved to be schemed against to death by his own boss!

Of course, Yan Ran couldn't explain her own motivation. It was more likely out of a wicked sense of humor, as she continued to shower him with her high-spirited flattery.

"President Ding, why don't you try a little harder? If you just put in a little more effort, I think that position next to President Lin would definitely be yours, not someone else's!" Yan Ran's eyes held a hint of longing. "At that time, you and President Lin would truly be a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman, unparalleled in the world!"

Ding Yuxin was quite smitten by these flattering words, but quickly sighed softly, "Your CEO Lin is lacking in that area, while the man I want is excellent in every way! I won't choose a pretty face, even if that pretty face is extremely capable. I don't need such a pretty face. My man is destined to be outstanding in every aspect!"

Yan Ran sneered inwardly. Didn't this stupid woman realize how devoted Fang Shu, the young and beautiful woman beside Lin Jun, was to him?

Especially in the last few days, Fang Shu has been so well-nourished that her skin has become fair and flawless.

Anyone who isn't blind or delusional would know that Lin Jun is exceptionally capable in this area.

Of course, no matter how much Yan Ran mocked Ding Yuxin in her heart, she wouldn't say it aloud: "President Ding, I wonder if you have any other time to talk to me? I'm worried that if I've been out for too long, President Lin won't be able to find me and will become suspicious. That wouldn't be good for me, and it wouldn't be good for President Ding either!"

Ding Yuxin nodded gently after listening; Yan Ran's words made sense.

The whole matter has reached its most critical moment, and at this point, no mistakes can be made.

However, Ding Yuxin added one last thing: "No matter what happens these next two days, you must report to me promptly. Don't worry, as long as the information you provide is valuable, I will definitely not treat you unfairly. Moreover, you don't need to judge whether the information is valuable or not; I will judge it!"

Yan Ran nodded very seriously: "I have remembered everything that President Ding instructed me to do. I will definitely not make the same mistakes as before. No matter what President Lin said or did, even if I think it is insignificant, I will report it to President Ding immediately!"

Ding Yuxin waved her hand with satisfaction: "Hurry up and go back, don't let Lin Jun suspect you!"

"Then I'll take my leave now, Mr. Ding." Yan Ran pushed open the car door and left.

Looking out the car window at Yan Ran, who was getting further and further away, Ding Yuxin didn't leave immediately. Instead, she fell into deep thought.

She felt that she had received some validation from Ding Yuxin and could make a decision.

But this matter was just too big, and she had been planning it for so long, so she always felt a little uneasy.

It would be great if this could be confirmed from other sources!

Or should I ask my father for permission?

Ding Yuxin picked up her phone and then put it down again. She always wanted to achieve something to show her father, but whenever she encountered a critical moment, she would ask her father for permission. Would her father look down on her and think that she was still not up to the task?

Ding Yuxin's brows gradually furrowed.

After thinking it over for nearly three minutes, Ding Yuxin finally called her father.

"Hey, Dad..." Ding Yuxin voiced all her concerns, including all the hints Lin Jun had given her, and concluded, "Dad, if we win, we'll not only get all of Fengshu Technology's advanced technology for free, but we'll also get a huge extra profit!"

After listening, Ding Yuxin's father, Ding Lu, asked a question: "Yuxin, I'll only give you one hint: it's not about what we'll gain if this succeeds, but what we'll lose if it fails."

Ding Yuxin fell silent. She thought for nearly three minutes before answering, "If we fail, we'll become a tool in Lin Jun's hand, gaining nothing. If Lin Jun intentionally sets a trap, we won't only lose a penny of profit or Fengshu Technology's technology, but we'll also damage the reputation of our Dingfeng Group and be ridiculed by everyone!"

Ding Lu hummed in agreement and said, "Now that you've clearly seen both the success and failure sides of this matter, it's up to you to decide what to do."

After saying that, Ding Lu ended the call.

He knew that if he wanted his daughter to truly shoulder the responsibility, he had to leave such a decision entirely to her!

Moreover, this is a very good opportunity for training. Even if Ding Yuxin loses, it won't be a major blow to Dingfeng Group!

When her father actually handed the decision-making power to Ding Yuxin, Ding Yuxin became hesitant.

The more she hoped her decision was correct, the more she hesitated and looked back, the less she dared to make a decision.

After much deliberation, to be on the safe side, he decided to contact one of Lin Jun's investors, named Bao Long. Ding Yuxin had met him a few times in order to get closer to him, and they had exchanged contact information.

Ding Yuxin then decided to call Bao Long to test the waters.

She had just made the call when Bao Long answered Ding Yuxin's call.

"Mr. Ding, I really didn't expect you to call me. It's an honor." Bao Long was a big fat man, but he had a deep, magnetic voice.

"Mr. Bao, I didn't expect you to be so relaxed. Tomorrow your shares will be auctioned off in a package. Whether your investment will be profitable or not depends entirely on tomorrow's move. Mr. Bao, you really have the makings of a great general!" Ding Yuxin's probing was even a bit blatant.

A hint of disdain appeared on Bao Long's fat face.

Just as Lin Jun had informed him, Ding Yuxin called to test him.

This rich kid will ruin Dingfeng Group sooner or later. With that kind of intelligence, he really can't support such a large group company!

"Mr. Ding, every investment has its ups and downs. As an investor, I put my eggs in ten baskets. Even if nine baskets don't hatch, as long as one basket does, I still make a profit. So what's there to worry about?" Bao Long replied, feigning nonchalance.
