152: Chapter 152 Meeting by Text Message

He handed the water glass from the table to Chen Ling while saying to her, "Don't rush, listen to me. Don't you need money very much right now?"

"Since you are so short of money, this opportunity is a good one. You are a businesswoman, and you should look at everything from a businesswoman's perspective."

Chen Ling sneered, completely rejecting Yang Jin's argument.

"Although I am a businesswoman, I am more importantly a mother! You want me to exchange my own biological daughter for money. Yang Jin, what do you take me for?"

Yang Jin took a deep breath and argued, "I didn't say you aren't a mother. What I mean is that since you don't have the time or energy to take care of Youyou right now, instead of pleasing neither side, why don't we just have a straightforward negotiation with Shen Yan!"

"To put it plainly, no matter what Shen Yan says, he is still Youyou's father. You aren't selling the child to anyone; you are merely transferring custody to Shen Yan."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Chen Ling did not speak.

Of course, she understood what Yang Jin meant.

It was just that she was unwilling to admit that she was incapable of taking good care of Youyou, and even needed to use Youyou to threaten Shen Yan into giving her money.

Seeing her silence, Yang Jin continued, "I know this decision is difficult for you, but it's okay. If you can't bring yourself to say it, I can speak up for you."

As soon as he finished speaking,

Chen Ling told Yang Jin, "This plan is useless. Change to another one."

Yang Jin did not think this plan was useless.

On the contrary, he thought this plan was the best one available at the moment.

He asked Chen Ling with a puzzled look, "Why? Do you just not want to ask Shen Yan for money?"

Chen Ling sighed and replied, "This isn't about whether I want to or not; it's about whether he can produce the money."

"His company was just established not long ago, and the project has only just started making money. If I go and ask him for money now, it's simply wishful thinking!"

"Besides, Shen Yan isn't an idiot. How could he agree to give me eight figures just for mere custody?"

Yang Jin curled his lips into a contemptuous smile and retorted, "Why is it impossible?"

"How about this: you entrust the entire matter to me to handle. I guarantee I will get you over eight figures within half a month."

Chen Ling looked at him suspiciously.

"Really? Then what if you can't get eight figures?"

Yang Jin patted his chest confidently and replied, "If I can't get eight figures, I will pay it out of my own pocket to make up the difference for you."

Since he had said so much, how could Chen Ling refuse?

"Fine, let's do it your way. I'll give you half a month. Within half a month, you must secure over ten million for me."

Yang Jin nodded in agreement.

At this time, Shen Yan did not know that Chen Ling and Yang Jin had set their sights on him. He was currently on the phone with Liu Hui at home.

"I'm sorry, I've been too busy recently and haven't had time to call you."

Liu Hui on the other end of the line replied, "You don't need to apologize to me. I've been very busy lately too, so it's normal that our schedules don't align."

"By the way, do you want to call your sister?"

Shen Yan's eyes lit up, and he replied, "Can I? Is she with you right now?"

Liu Hui denied, "I'm not with her right now. I'll go over to her place tomorrow. I'll have her call you then, how about that?"

Shen Yan certainly would not refuse.

He hadn't seen his sister in a long time, nor had he heard her voice.

Heaven knew how much he missed his sister.

"That's great. By the way, what did the doctor say?"

Liu Hui smiled and replied to Shen Yan, "Don't worry, the doctor said it won't be long before she can return to the country with me. The money you spent was worth it."

Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as his sister could return home healthy, that was all that mattered.

"By the way, during the time I was away, nothing untoward happened on your end, right?"

Shen Yan answered honestly, "No, nothing happened at all. The company is getting better and better."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hui teased Shen Yan, "What about you? Has your luck with the opposite sex been getting better?"

Shen Yan blushed and stammered, "No... no. You know, I'm busy with work all day; I don't have the mind to pursue any romance."

Liu Hui burst out laughing.

"Whether your luck with the opposite sex is good or not, I'll know once I return to the country."

"But you don't need to be too nervous; I still trust you."

Shen Yan managed a forced smile.

He didn't know if his luck with the opposite sex was good or not.

So far, only Xiao Wu had confessed to him.

If it was Xiao Wu... it should be fine, right?

Just as he was thinking this, Liu Hui had something urgent and needed to hang up.

"Okay, I won't keep you. I have a meeting to attend. I'll call you again tomorrow."

Shen Yan quickly nodded.

"Alright, hurry up with your business. Don't worry about me. See you tomorrow."

Liu Hui chuckled, sending Shen Yan a kiss over the phone.

"Muma! Good night!"

Shen Yan let out a light chuckle and acted affectionately back.

"Muma! Get back to work!"

The two hung up the phone.

Shen Yan stood by the balcony, spacing out.

Unknowingly, nearly half a year had passed since the most difficult period.

He was no longer the helpless person he once was.

All of this was thanks to the tycoon system.

Speak of the devil.

Just as he was thinking about the tycoon system,

The tycoon system issued him a special mission.

[Ding! Special Mission Issued: Please refuse Yang Jin's request and take over Fuchen Enterprise within one month.]

Yang Jin's request?

Who was Yang Jin?

After thinking for a long time, Shen Yan finally remembered the person named Yang Jin.

Yang Jin—the boss of a finance company and Chen Ling's new boyfriend.

But that wasn't right...

Why would the boss of a finance company approach him with a request?

Shen Yan thought it over and over but couldn't figure out the matter.

He firmly believed the tycoon system would not make a mistake.

But he also didn't understand why Yang Jin would approach him with a request.

Just as he was perplexed, a text message arrived on his phone.

[Mr. Shen, I am Yang Jin, Chen Ling's new boyfriend. I hope we can meet tomorrow to discuss Youyou's matter in detail.]

Upon seeing the two words 'Youyou,' Shen Yan's expression changed.

[What business is Youyou's matter of yours?]

The other party replied almost instantly.

[As Chen Ling's new boyfriend, Youyou's matter is my matter. It can't be explained clearly in a text message. Let's find an opportunity to talk tomorrow.]
