Accompanying Nong Qingying to the movies.

A solitary man and woman, mutually attracted.

Both young, neither particularly shy.

And then.

Su Yehao actually held her hand, occasionally scratching her palm.

She seemed to enjoy the little thrill.

Nong Qingying therefore feigned annoyance but didn't forcefully pull away, which emboldened Su Yehao.

Neither of them said a thing.

During the second half, they hid in the back row, reliving the pleasant moments from the yacht a few days prior, leading to multiple instances of oxygen deprivation.

When the movie ended and the lights suddenly came on… that shrewd and eccentric young lady was back.

Lustful, Su Yehao drove her back to her family's golf club.

Before he could shamelessly ask to come inside for a bit, Nong Qingying had already shut him out, decisively closing the door.

The timing wasn't right, so he had no choice but to give up…

He went home alone.

Su Yehao saw his father watching a dog race, and casually asked, "Why aren't you asleep yet? Is Third Mistress back?"

"Why bring her up for no reason? She can go wherever she wants. The older she gets, the more temperamental she becomes. If I don't show her who's boss, she'll turn the house upside down."

Patting the sofa, Su's father asked with a smile, "Come sit down. Let's chat, father and son. I asked Driver Ni to send you all the letters and information that arrived today. Did you get them?"

"I finished reading them in the afternoon. Mostly small and micro enterprises, some of which can't even put together a business plan. They're all masters of empty promises. Some people even write letters asking for tens of millions right off the bat, without mentioning the project, claiming it's for confidentiality... What a joke! I threw them straight into the trash."

"Well, doing business is hard!" Su's father said with a grin, thinking his son was starting to experience the difficulties of the business world.

Su Yehao sat in a single chair, crossed his legs, and continued,

"I didn't go to the company today. Did anyone come looking for me? Set up a time for tomorrow evening. I'll chat with the people worth meeting."

"I don't care about that. Do whatever you want. I thought about it seriously during the day. I can give you an allowance of thirty to fifty million. You can find projects to invest in yourself, but it has to be reliable, and it has to be invested under the name of Si Hai International."

Picking up a fruit platter, Su's father handed it to his son and continued, "I should be going to the mainland in a few days. Someone contacted me today, wanting me to participate in a land auction. I talked to someone in Guang Zhou on the phone. Land prices are relatively cheap, so I want to go take a look myself."

"Land auction? You've decided to acquire land?"

Immediately interested, Su Yehao asked excitedly.

"Such a big matter can't be decided so easily. I'll go take a look first. It's been many years since I've been there. I'll also visit the ancestral graves and burn some money."

"Dad, I'll go with you!"

Su's father initially intended to refuse.

But then he thought about it, realizing that they should pay respects to their ancestors, lest they worry. So he readily agreed,

"Then we'll go on a weekend. Can't let it interfere with your studies. I'll have someone process the visa tomorrow... I heard you have your eye on two tile factories. Have you contacted them yet? How are they?"

"I can try to contact them, investigate them in detail. It's just an investment of ten or twenty million at most. I plan to integrate the two tile factories, expand sales channels, and rebrand with advertising. As long as the quality and price are good, advertising should be effective."

Su Yehao had considered these issues during class that day.

He had prepared himself to deal with his father, and it came in handy at this moment.

Those who wanted investment needed to impress him with a business plan. Su Yehao also needed to impress his own father with a detailed plan.

Therefore, Su Yehao took the opportunity to say,

"Can you arrange for a few capable assistants for me? After I complete the market research and development plan, I'll show it to you. If there are no problems, then we can discuss the details of the investment. First, we need to conduct a detailed investigation of those two tile factories, both openly and secretly. This requires manpower."

"Tsk..."

Su's father found it strange to see his son so serious.

The current image was too different from the hopeless little rascal who couldn't be saved, even with a beating.

Thinking that the exercise was indeed effective, Su's father said readily, "Okay, you can contact Master Jiang yourself. You can transfer whoever you want. Anyway, the company isn't busy recently, and there aren't any new projects to handle. The scale of those two tile factories isn't large. Their production capacity can be absorbed in Hong Kong, so it's still manageable. Do it yourself..."

The problem of not having anyone under him was solved.

This time, he was finding projects for his father, so Su Yehao didn't need to worry about confidentiality.

As for his own loan, he didn't plan to say anything until he actually received the money.

Earlier that day, he had sent Zhu Gan home to test the waters.

That way, as long as Nong Qingying's loan went through smoothly and the path was clear, Su Yehao could also use the accounting firm of his good-for-nothing friend, Zhu Gan, to arrange for professional consultants to try to mortgage the penthouse in Hong Kong in Japan as quickly and comprehensively as possible, expanding his own small business.

Since it involved a completely unfamiliar area of ​​cross-border loans, and involved tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, Su Yehao was afraid of falling into a pit, so he had to see if Nong Qingying would step into the pit first.

Although he vaguely felt sorry for this young lady, he felt relieved with her leading the way.

…

Unknowingly, the development direction of Si Hai International had deviated from Su's father's original expectations.

Previously, after selling the shares of the Hong Kong real estate company, he originally planned to hold the money and wait and see for a while through wealth management.

Now, the plan to invest in the north has been put on the agenda.

Seeing that his father was interested in land auctions, Su Yehao suggested collecting more information to gain an in-depth understanding of the mainland real estate market environment to avoid maladaptation.

He originally planned to find more good projects to help his family settle the road ahead.

After picking and choosing, most of them were crooked and cracked, except for the tile industry, which was a lucrative industry, and Su Yehao felt that it had some prospects, and the rest was Yinhai Software.

It was rare to have such a pleasant father-son chat.

Hearing his son mention the name of Yinhai Software, Su's father's expression was slightly unnatural, and he said,

"Yinhai Software? I just met people from this company tonight. They look like scammers. Don't pay attention to them. They're a little crazy."

"You met them? Right here in Casino?"

"Yeah, around eight o'clock tonight, I was at the Royal Court Club with someone else... drinking tea and talking about things. They suddenly broke in and insisted on talking to me about investment. I didn't even know them, so I had the security guards kick them out."

Shaking his head and sighing with emotion, Su's father said again,

"Nowadays, people dare to do anything to get investment. There are many good people, but there are also many bad people. You have to keep your eyes open. There's also something else. In addition to being at school during this time, I want to find a bodyguard to follow you to avoid accidents. Our family has a lot of money, so it's easy to be targeted. If you're not careful, you'll easily fall into a trap."

Su Yehao immediately guessed that it might be related to the sensational case last year.

News about the sky-high ransom could still be seen in the newspapers recently, and the murderer had not been caught.

Although he was unwilling, worried that his little secrets would be exposed, but given his family's situation, it was indeed easy to cause trouble, and his life was more important.

Su Yehao did not refuse directly.

He thought of a way and suggested finding someone from Big Tooth Jun's family to be a bodyguard.

He had known the elders of Big Tooth Jun's family for many years, and their relationship was close, their credibility was guaranteed, and their ability was not bad. Su's father thought it was feasible, and then he planned to buy two bulletproof cars.

Thinking about Yinhai Software Company.

After going upstairs, Su Yehao called Master Jiang and asked him to think of a way to arrange a meeting with the people from Yinhai Software as soon as possible...
