Chapter 381 - 380: Someone Wants to Invest Again?

However, for the copy meant for Tang Yu’s law firm, they would both have to take the contract to the office to get it processed.

After all, the third party also needed to sign and seal it, which wasn’t something just anyone could handle.

"There’s no time like the present. Boss Yun, are you free today?"

If the third party didn’t sign, the contract wouldn’t officially be in effect. Gao Mi was genuinely afraid that delays would breed complications, so he wanted to get it done as soon as possible.

"The law firm where Lawyer Tang works is in Dingsi Building, and that’s not exactly close. If you have time, we could go tomorrow morning instead."

Dingsi Building was the first reward Yun Zijin had received after linking with the Randomly Spend system, so it held a special significance for her.

Yun Zijin’s reminder made Gao Mi recall that Hengchuang Law Firm, where Tang Yu worked, was indeed in Dingsi Building.

He wasn’t so presumptuous as to ask the law firm to send someone over to sign.

"Alright. In that case, Boss Yun, what time tomorrow would work for you?"

Gao Mi didn’t dare set a time himself. If it conflicted with Yun Zijin’s usual schedule, he’d be indirectly offending her.

"Let’s meet tomorrow at 10 a.m. at the entrance of Dingsi Building."

Yun Zijin wasn’t trying to delay the signing; it was just a necessary part of the process. She worried that if she skipped a step, the other party might try to take advantage of her youth and assume she was clueless.

No matter what, the third party was absolutely essential.

"Okay, I’ll definitely be on time! I’m going to start arranging casting today!"

Even though he hadn’t received the thirty million yet, Gao Mi wasn’t the type to sit idle.

With the investment basically finalized, Gao Mi began to mull over casting.

Watching Gao Mi go from dejected to full of life, Chen Chuan felt incredibly grateful to Yun Zijin.

If things had kept on like that, Chen Chuan was genuinely worried Gao Mi would develop depression over the script.

Gao Mi had already been showing signs before this, though they weren’t severe.

Yun Zijin’s thirty million had, in a sense, pulled Gao Mi back from the brink of depression.

Yun Zijin didn’t care what Gao Mi was off to do. She just had to take care of her own responsibilities.

"I’ll go with him to prepare for casting. As soon as the audition time is set, I’ll message you right away."

Chen Chuan was now addressing Yun Zijin with newfound respect.

Yun Zijin nodded. To prevent them from casting the wrong people, she knew she had to be present for the auditions.

Otherwise, if an actor had a scandal midway through filming, everyone’s hard work would be for nothing.

Chen Chuan and Gao Mi left the Wangyou Milk Tea Shop, each with their Wangyou Milk Tea, leaving Yun Zijin alone at the four-person table.

Yun Zijin had planned to move back to her previous two-person table, but someone blocked her way just as she stood up.

"Can I help you?"

Yun Zijin didn’t recognize the person who had suddenly stopped her, but remembering this was her own shop, she reined in her temper and asked pleasantly.

"I overheard your conversation just now. I have a project as well. I was wondering if Boss Yun might be interested?"

’Another one looking for an investment?’

’But this guy is asking for an investment with such a cocky attitude. What is he thinking?’

’With an attitude like that, he’d be incredibly lucky to secure any investment at all.’

"Sorry, I’m not looking to invest in other projects right now. You should find someone else."

’He wants an investment but can’t even check his temper? Does he think everyone is his mother, ready to tolerate whatever he does?’

With that said, Yun Zijin prepared to walk around him and return to her two-person table.

But the man wouldn’t give up and continued to block her path.

"Are you sure you won’t invest? This is an S-class script! It’s much higher quality than that script of Gao Mi’s, written by some no-name screenwriter!"

’He makes it sound like I’ll lose a fortune by not investing.’

"Oh, in that case, I must be refusing to invest simply because I don’t like you. Since you’re so confident, Young Master, why not invest in it yourself? You don’t look like you’re short on cash. It’s just one TV series. You could probably fund it without a second thought."

Yun Zijin’s words sounded like a compliment, but anyone with a brain could tell she was being sarcastic.

Not wanting to waste any more words on him, Yun Zijin gave Zero One a look.

Just as the man tried to block Yun Zijin again, Zero One took a long stride forward and intercepted him.

Zero One didn’t even need to speak; a single look was enough to make the man shrink back in fear.

"Tch! Another one who didn’t bother to look into School Beauty Yun’s background."

"Yeah, are there still people who don’t know that School Beauty Yun is the kind of big shot who has bodyguards with her 24/7?"

Many of the customers in the Wangyou Milk Tea Shop were students from Dijing University. Seeing someone block Yun Zijin and try to solicit an investment, some were already sarcastically lighting a candle for the guy.

’These days, there really are people just asking to be humiliated.’

The Dijing University students didn’t bother to lower their voices, and the man blocking Yun Zijin heard them loud and clear.

His expression turned ugly when he saw the seven members of Zero One surrounding Yun Zijin.

The people at his table saw his expression and all looked embarrassed.

They had been right there and had heard everything—Yun Zijin had just said that all the shops on this street belonged to her.

In a place like Dijing, where every inch of land is worth a fortune, someone who could buy an entire street of shops couldn’t possibly have a simple background.

’And this young master had the audacity to go up and demand an investment. Even if his project is better than Gao Mi’s, it still depends on whether she even wants to invest.’

’Even the best script is useless without a good director.’

"She’s just a landlord, what kind of amazing background could she have? The company my family gave me to run is in Dingsi Building! And Dingsi Building isn’t some place just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can waltz into."

The onlookers were dumbfounded. If they hadn’t misheard, Gao Mi and the investor had just agreed to meet with Lawyer Tang tomorrow. And everyone knew that Hengchuang Law Firm, where Tang Yu worked, was located in Dingsi Building. Since she knew Tang Yu, she could obviously get inside.

When they heard "Dingsi Building," the group of Dijing University students fell silent. Forget everything else—just the claim "my company is in Dingsi Building" was enough to put him a cut above countless others.

As for Yun Zijin, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. ’My apologies, but Dingsi Building happens to be under my name as well.’

"Hmph. I’d like to see just how they get into Dingsi Building tomorrow!"

The man gritted his teeth, not even sure why he felt such strong animosity toward Yun Zijin.

At 1:00 p.m., Qin Sitong finally completed her daily task of making 200 cups of Wangyou Milk Tea. Taking off her apron, she walked out of the preparation area to find Yun Zijin.

Qin Sitong had actually noticed what was happening, but she had been too busy to step in and back Yun Zijin up right away.

Fortunately, Yun Zijin had Zero One deal with the guy in the end.

No matter how many times she saw them, Qin Sitong was always impressed by Yun Zijin’s bodyguards.
