Chapter 580: Even if You Don’t Believe in Yourself, You Have to Believe in Us

Shen Nian glanced at Wang Chunhua but didn’t reveal her plans just yet. ’It’ll be better to surprise her once the shop is open,’ she thought.

"Alright, I’ve already talked to my brother. He said he’ll get back to us as soon as possible!"

Chu Lingxiu, who had gone to make a phone call, returned shortly after. Judging by the smile on her face, her talk with Chu Yunze must have gone well.

"Thank you for doing that."

"It was nothing! But, Xiao Nian, I have a request."

"What request?"

"Your snack shop... I want to invest!"

The Chu Family had always doted on Chu Lingxiu, so they were naturally generous with her financially. Chu Lingxiu was used to having the best of everything; she had even spent a considerable amount of money on Gu Shuxin in the past.

However, she had managed to save some of it.

She had never known what to do with it before, and besides, she didn’t have an eye for investment. Now, someone close to her was opening a shop—how could Chu Lingxiu possibly miss such a great opportunity!

’All the allowance I’ve been saving for so long can finally be put to good use!’

’Besides, I have complete faith in Shen Nian’s skills! With pastries this delicious, our shop’s business will definitely be booming!’

’The money I invest now will surely be earned back quickly. Who knows, I might even make a fortune!’

’Then, I’ll finally have a chance to show off in front of my brother. After all, he’s always calling me a spendthrift!’

’I have to show my brother that I can make money too!’

"Invest?"

Shen Nian stared at Chu Lingxiu, momentarily stunned, then smiled. ’It seems like no matter what I do, someone close to me is bound to want to invest.’

"That’s right, invest! Xiao Nian, you wouldn’t turn me down, would you?"

"Of course not. With a little rich girl like you on board, our snack shop definitely won’t be short on cash."

"Hehe, that’s more like it."

"Xiao Nian, can I invest too? I’ve also saved up a lot of my allowance and haven’t found a chance to spend it. This seems like the perfect opportunity."

"Okay, you’re in."

Since she already had one investor, Shen Nian certainly didn’t mind adding another.

With Shen Nian’s approval, both Chu Lingxiu and Qi Yunzhi were ecstatic, leaving only Wang Chunhua looking a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Nian, I don’t have any money, so I can’t invest... How about I come and work for you instead!"

Wang Chunhua glanced at Shen Nian a few times before mustering the courage to say this.

’Seeing that my three roommates have all joined in, leaving me as the only one left out, of course I want to be a part of it too. But I know I’m not like my other roommates; I don’t have money. Still, I want to stick together with them through thick and thin.’

’So, the only thing I can contribute is probably my hard work!’

Hearing Wang Chunhua’s words, Shen Nian’s eyes lit up. She hadn’t even mentioned her little plan yet, but unexpectedly, Wang Chunhua had brought it up herself.

"Great! As it happens, our shop needs a manager. The job is yours!"

"Huh? A manager? I-I can’t do that! I’ll just be a regular employee, that’s fine."

Wang Chunhua was taken aback by Shen Nian’s grand offer, waving her hands in refusal. ’Managers are supposed to be really capable people. How could someone like me be a manager!’

"Who says you can’t? Trust me, you’ll definitely be a great manager!"

"But..."

"No buts. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, you have to believe in us!"
