After being reborn, my sister insisted on marrying me.

UN General Assembly

College of Applied Arts and Sciences.

Startup base.

Before long, everyone arrived one after another.

Sulei arrived first as the general manager.

Zhou Min followed behind, carrying her briefcase. The look in her eyes behind her gold-rimmed glasses was more composed than when they had breakfast together in Zhichun East Lane last time.

After all, post-investment management and pre-investment negotiation are completely different mindsets.

The representative from IDG, surnamed Sun, was Lin Donghe's investment director. He was in his early thirties, wore frameless glasses, and had the air of an elite.

Liu Yang and Zhao Min came in together. Zhao Min was wearing a bright red down jacket and exclaimed as soon as she entered, "This weather is colder than Northeast China!"

Senior students Li and Wang arrived last.

Li Jie, a senior student, was also carrying a sample cup of Heytea's new product.

They said they took the opportunity to measure the customer traffic at the new promotional site on the way.

Chen Xinyi sat in the main seat, with a stack of documents spread out in front of her. To her left was Tage Technology, and to her right was Xinyi Catering.

She wore her hair in a high ponytail today, and the collar of her white shirt was turned up from inside her down jacket, making her look more capable than usual.

As usual, Wei Yi sat next to her as a backdrop, while Jin Shilin and Lin Siyan sat on either side.

Su Lai, Zhou Min, and Director Sun sat opposite each other, while Liu Yang, Zhao Min, and two senior students sat on the other side.

"Let's start with the singing and dancing meeting."

Chen Xinyi pushed the first document onto the table. "The issue with Tage is very simple. My brother's personal shares in Tage Technology will be transferred entirely to Weichen Holdings, which will then act as the shareholder. This matter has already been discussed with Su Lai, Sister Zhou, and General Manager Lin; today is just a formal notification. It will not affect any shareholder rights, nor will it change the company's existing shareholding structure or management. General Manager Zhou and Director Sun, do you have anything to add?"

Director Sun shook his head. "Before we came, President Lin made it very clear that IDG is investing in the TAGE team and the industry. Whether the shares are registered under the founder's personal name or the holding company's name makes no difference to us. As long as President Wei and Chairman Chen are still here, IDG is at ease."

"Where's Sister Zhou?"

"Same. Zhong Ding believes in people." Zhou Min smiled and picked up her coffee.

"That concludes the 'Treading Song' segment."

Chen Xinyi closed the folder with a swift and decisive motion.

Zhao Min had just unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and screwed it back on, unable to help but whisper to Liu Yang that this was the shortest shareholders' meeting she had ever attended.

Liu Yang replied, "That shows they are efficient."

Next up is XinYi Catering.

But neither Zhou Min nor Su Lai showed any intention of getting up to leave.

Zhou Min moved her chair back a bit, shifting to a more comfortable sitting position.

Sulei lay face down on the table, chin resting on her arm, her eyes fixed on the direction of the conference room door.

Director Sun had already closed and packed his laptop, and even picked up his briefcase.

He even stuffed his phone into the inside pocket of his suit jacket, looking like he was ready to leave.

Then the meeting room door opened.

Wu Zhenhe stood at the door.

She was still wearing that camel-colored cashmere coat, because Wei Yi had said she looked good in it.

Moreover, the process of undressing made him enjoy the feeling of being a noblewoman even more.

Her long, straight black hair was pulled back, and the two pearls on her earlobes looked as warm and lustrous as two drops of moonlight under the fluorescent light.

The moment she stood there, the atmosphere in the conference room changed.

That's an aura that ordinary people can't cultivate.

That composure was cultivated over decades of immersion in top-tier resources.

A natural, unadorned sense of superiority.

Sulei sat up straight immediately, her lips curling up like a British Shorthair that had just spotted a can of cat food.

Director Sun's hand holding the briefcase hovered in mid-air, and his bent-over posture froze.

Then he silently put his briefcase back on the table and pulled out his chair to sit down again.

"President Wu," Su Lai spoke first, her voice at least two tones sweeter than usual, "You're here for the meeting today too?"

Wei Yi shook his head upon hearing this.

This is Sister Bing.

It turns out it wasn't that I didn't know how to flatter.

It's not that I or my older sister are worth her flattery!

Look at that sycophantic voice, it sounds absolutely disgusting!

Wu Zhenhe smiled and nodded, her gaze sweeping around the conference room before finally settling on Wei Yi.

She walked over and naturally sat down in the empty seat next to him.

This location is actually quite far off the edge.

Like Wei Yi, the two sat behind Chen Xinyi.

At first glance, they look like two of Chen Xinyi's assistants.

But she clearly enjoyed it.

The moment she sat down, a delicate fragrance wafted over with the gentle sway of her dress.

Wei Yi sniffed for a moment, then tried to shift his gaze back to the documents in front of Chen Xinyi.

This woman.

No, this aunt.

He really gets anxious if he doesn't have a day off.

Chen Xinyi flipped through the second document and cleared her throat.

"The issue of Xinyi Catering is simpler. Xinyi's current major shareholders are myself, Wei Yi, Sister Shilin, Siyan, Zhao Min, Liu Yang, Li Jie, and Wang Xueli."

"Mr. Wu previously communicated with me on the phone, expressing his willingness to invest 40 million yuan in his personal capacity to hold 30% of the shares in Xinyi Catering. This is the main topic of today's discussion."

"Forty million?" Zhao Min almost dropped the mineral water bottle she had just unscrewed.

"Thirty percent?" Liu Yang put down his coffee cup, his expression shifting between shock and confusion. "Wait a minute, Chairman Chen, how many stores does XinYi currently have combined, including Heytea and Sweet Ice Cream?"

"Heytea has twelve stores, and Sweet Ice Cream has eighteen stores, for a total of thirty directly operated stores."

"Thirty stores, forty million invested, only thirty percent return?"

Liu Yang quickly did some mental calculations.

This valuation is much higher than that of other tea beverage brands of similar size on the market.

This is a normal size.

The highest valuation is estimated to be no more than 20 million.

Only 30% of 40 million.

This means that the total investment in Xinyi Catering up to now is actually less than 20 million.

The total valuation has reached 1.33 million.

Liu Yang then calculated the value of his shares.

She initially invested 50 yuan plus corresponding resources, acquiring a 2.5% stake in the total shares.

in other words.

The 500,000 yuan she initially invested was recouped in just over two months.

It has now appreciated to at least 332 million!

This is making money way too fast and too much!

Zhou Min, who was still unaware of Wu Zhenhe's identity, quickly did some mental calculations.

She frowned and looked behind Chen Xinyi at the stunningly beautiful, mature woman who had been staring at Wei Yi ever since she came in.

"Mr. Wu, is there something else you're considering with this offer?"

Because of Chen Xinyi, Zhou Min also had feelings for Xinyi.

But Wu Zhenhe's quote was outrageous.

This made things difficult for Zhou Min, and she felt a bit frustrated and angry.

Hence this question.

Wu Zhenhe picked up the teacup that Wei Yi had just drunk from, took a sip, and said calmly, "I had no other considerations. I just like it."

The meeting room was silent for about three seconds.

Zhao Min silently screwed on the cap of the mineral water bottle. She had already opened and closed the bottle three times, but hadn't drunk a drop.

Liu Yang leaned back in his chair, his expression shifting from shock to a complex mix of emotions.

She suddenly turned to look at Wei Yi, scrutinizing him from head to toe with an extremely subtle gaze.

Director Sun opened his laptop, the screen lit up, his fingers hovered over the keyboard for a few seconds, then, as if making a momentous decision, he slammed the laptop shut and stood up. "Chairman Chen, IDG also wants to participate in XinYi's Series A funding round. President Lin mentioned before that the tea beverage sector and ride-sharing have synergistic effects. If XinYi has any future funding plans, IDG is willing to lead the investment. Although we primarily invest in TMT and consumer technology, IDG has been paying close attention to the tea beverage sector."

Before Chen Xinyi could answer, Wu Zhenhe spoke up leisurely. "Xiao Sun, didn't your IDG release an internal report last year saying that the tea beverage sector has high gross profit margins but low competitive advantages, and therefore wasn't included in your investment portfolio?"

Director Sun blushed slightly. "That report was for the franchise model. Xinyi operates entirely through direct sales and a shared supply chain, which is different from the project Mr. Lin reviewed before."

He didn't dare look Wu Zhenhe in the eye when he said this.

But his tone was so certain that it was as if the internal report had nothing to do with him.

Sulei laughed out loud while lying on the table, then quickly pretended to cough to cover up her lapse in composure.

Something is wrong!

Something's not right!

Zhou Min silently observed everyone, but mainly focused on Director Sun, Su Lai, and Chen Xinyi.

And behind Chen Xinyi, there was someone who was already playing with Wu Zhenhe's hands.

Zhou Min knew Su Lai's identity.

Su Lai's identity was at least 70% the reason she initially chose Tage instead of ofo, which she had previously favored.

Director Sun is a colleague of hers.

This person is known for his caution in the industry and is Lin Donghe's right-hand man.

Now, these two people.

One of them was very respectful when the woman entered.

One of them was about to leave, but immediately sat down when he saw her arrive.

Moreover, given his famously cautious nature, he surprisingly said he would follow suit after only a few minutes.

This woman has a big problem!

Almost without hesitation.

Zhou Min placed the coffee cup on the table with a very soft, crisp sound.

"Chairman Chen, Chairman Wei, and Zhongding also want to participate."

She smiled and said, "However, our scale is small, and we can't compete with IDG for lead investment, but we can still participate as a follower. Even one percent is fine."

She paused, then looked at Wu Zhenhe. "Everyone's fighting over it, so it must be something good."

These words made Wu Zhenhe glance at her, then turn back to look at her young lover.

Yes, that's right.

Wu Zhenhe thought.

Everyone's scrambling for it, so it must be a really good thing.

"I miss you," she whispered.

Wei Yi also whispered, "Let's go to Palm Springs later."

"Um."

The two of them were indeed speaking very softly.

However, while others couldn't hear it, Chen Xinyi and her two henchmen on either side could.

Chen Xinyi remained expressionless, and Lin Siyan showed no change in expression whatsoever.

Only Kim Se-rin couldn't help but turn around and glance back.

젠장!!

Sister Jin thought.

These two siblings are absolutely terrifying!
