Jing pursed her lips, "It’s okay, Aunt Pei."

But fortunately, Zheng Qiudong will be coming this time as well.

This Chairman of DJRH is indeed a true big shot, whose status and influence in the country should be able to completely overshadow that guy named Meng.

Unfortunately... Zheng Qiudong is not like Shangguan Qiuya, he hasn’t developed that kind of special intimate relationship with Brother Tang Song.

Ah... ptooey ptooey ptooey...

Jing’s cheeks reddened as she silently cursed herself.

Of course, Brother Tang Song cannot have an intimate relationship with him; that would make him gay!

Although she has some quirky little hobbies, she’s not a fujoshi!

However...

Her eyes shifted cunningly, as an idea quietly formed in her heart.

She must come up with a plan at tomorrow’s birthday party to cleverly leverage Shangguan Qiuya’s little thoughts and pull this big shot Zheng Qiudong into the mix.

To jointly support Brother Tang Song!

...

AM.

The door lock sounded with a light "click."

Jing, who was chatting in the living room, looked up and immediately said, "Dad, you’re back!"

Tian Chengye nodded, took off his suit jacket, and casually tossed it onto the sofa.

His whole body sank heavily into it.

The tie was skewed, and his face was full of unconcealed exhaustion and fatigue.

For more than half a month, he had almost been soaking in Hang City’s Huinei Electronics.

On one hand, he needed to calm the tech team on the brink of collapse, while on the other, he needed to negotiate between various investment institutions hoping to bring in life-saving funds, losing a significant amount of weight.

Jing quickly put down her phone and frowned, "What’s going on? Your eyes are bloodshot. Did you not sleep well last night?"

Tian Chengye rubbed his swollen temples and hoarsely said, "I didn’t sleep a bit last night... regretting it, regretting it to the point of sleeplessness. Jingjing, Dad... did a tremendously stupid thing." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"What is it?" Jing’s heart sank along with his words.

Tian Chengye stared at the ceiling with unfocused eyes, his voice filled with irrepressible frustration, "Yesterday... news came from Jinxiu Commerce about major good news."

Jing immediately reacted, "The valuation went up?"

Last month, to fill the funding gap at Huinei Electronics, her father painfully sold off 7.5% of Jinxiu Commerce shares.

It was calculated with a total valuation of 1.8 billion at that time.

Since everyone was optimistic about Jinxiu’s future appreciation potential, a company from the Imperial City called "Jingyi Asset Management Company" quickly took over.

It’s said that although this company has just been established, it has strong overseas capital backing and is extremely generous in its dealings.

Directly acquiring with 135 million cash, alleviating her father’s debt crisis.

Tian Chengye was silent for a long time before speaking in a near-dreamlike voice, struggling:

"Meigou Technology had some internal information leaked; their ’Global Fast Pass’ plan received joint approval from multiple departments including the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs, and reached cooperation agreements with over ten countries along the ’Belt and Road’, with Jinxiu Commerce’s name in a series of channel memorandums..."

Upon hearing this, Jing instantly understood.

Because of Smile Capital, Jinxiu Commerce had long been in deep cooperation with Meigou Technology on cross-border ecommerce business, even having some internal priority channels.

However, previously, due to Meigou’s overseas business model being already established, Jinxiu Commerce was considered a late entrant—they did get a share, but never managed to secure the most central piece.

But now things are different!

This time, it’s a new strategic cooperation pushed by the national level!

Jinxiu Commerce will undoubtedly be able to ride this wave first!

Tian Chengye painfully grabbed his hair, his voice full of regret: "One wrong step leads to more mistakes! If I could wait a little longer, even just one more month before selling, the valuation could have been 2.5 billion, or even 3 billion! This... this caused a loss of nearly a hundred million!"

Looking at her father’s face full of dejection and unwillingness, Jing’s heart sighed along with him.

She understood better than anyone that this mistake was a heavy blow to a father who is in a critical situation.

But there is no medicine for regret in this world.

Jinxiu Commerce shares can no longer be returned.

"Dad, it’s okay, business is about gains and losses, there will be other opportunities in the future."

Tian Chengye looked at his sweet and obedient daughter in front of him, hesitated to speak several times, ultimately letting out a heavy sigh.

Currently, he is besieged.

Zhongcheng Group is declining, personal assets have significantly shrunk.

Carrying huge loans personally.

Selling Jinxiu Commerce shares to sustain Huinei Electronics, subsequently missing major good news.

One wrong step leads to more mistakes.

He is truly afraid. Afraid that one day he might suddenly explode, losing the entire household, plunging his daughter’s stable and affluent life completely into it.

It is because of this that he, more than ever, wants his daughter to have a strong and reliable future.

Yan City Normal University, School of Computer Science and Technology, Room 412.

The teaching building is much quieter on the weekend than on weekdays.

Jiang Yourong sat in her office, wearing anti-blue light glasses, focused on revising a National Natural Science Foundation application report.

"Ring ring ring——" A somewhat abrupt cell phone ringing broke the indoor silence.

She picked up the phone, her heart skipped a beat, almost instinctively standing up from the chair, walking quickly to the corner by the window, and pressing the answer button.
