Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Subduing Liao Jinglin (9)

An Yiqing couldn’t help but shake her head after listening to Liao Jinglin’s nosy narrative; the man really had rotten luck.

"What’s your philosophy?"

"Ga—" Liao Jinglin, immersed in his sorrow, was a bit slow in following the girl’s train of thought and involuntarily replied, "Resources are allocated by the market, the market is omnipotent, and there will be an invisible hand controlling everything..." Liao Jinglin became more and more excited as he spoke, gesticulating wildly as he shared with An Yiqing all that he had learned and seen over the years.

As she listened to Liao Jinglin’s impassioned speech, An Yiqing nodded silently to herself. This man indeed had talent; he was not like those experts who were all talk and no action but someone who perfectly integrated practice, theory, and talent.

"I can give you an opportunity to realize your ambitions. Do you trust me?"

"What?" Liao Jinglin was taken aback and looked at the extraordinary girl in front of him, "What opportunity?"

"I can let you flex your muscles, allow you to reach unimaginable heights. Are you willing to trust me?" An Yiqing smiled gently, patiently repeating her previous words.

"Why should I?" Liao Jinglin put away his previous cavalier attitude and asked seriously.

"Because of who I am. If you trust me, take a gamble. If not, we’ll go our separate ways," the girl replied dismissively, as opportunities were only for those with discernment and the courage to strive.

Liao Jinglin’s dark eyes intensely scrutinized the gentle and tranquil girl before him, his eyes flickering with confusion and struggle.

The cold wind whistled by the lake, and the two stood facing each other silently on the shore.

After a while, Liao Jinglin took a deep breath, clenched his teeth, and nodded vigorously, "Alright! I trust you! I’ll follow you!" To hell with it, at worst he’d emerge with a scar the size of a bowl on his head, but in eighteen years, he’d be a man once more!

An Yiqing received the answer she had anticipated and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "In the future, you will be proud of the choice you made today."

Years later, when Liao Jinglin stood at the peak of the world, every time he gathered with Zhang Yuksheng and others, he would inevitably exclaim that if it hadn’t been for Miss, their lives would have been mediocre!

The next day, Liao Jinglin arrived at Yuyuanzhai as promised and happened to run into An Yiqing who had just arrived.

"Miss!" Zhang Yuksheng, busy in the hall, spotted An Yiqing entering Yuyuanzhai and quickly set aside his ledger to approach her.

"Brother Yusheng," An Yiqing nodded with a smile, "Let’s go to the inner hall; I have something to discuss."

Inner Hall

Liao Jinglin, standing behind An Yiqing, was somewhat dazed. This girl is...?

"I am the owner of Yuyuanzhai, An Yiqing," she explained, as if seeing the question in Liao Jinglin’s mind.

"You’re the owner of Yuyuanzhai?!" Liao Jinglin exclaimed, shocked. Since he had returned from Country Jin, he had been reading news reports about Yuyuanzhai’s poisoning incident every day, as well as the rise of Yuyuanzhai; he had previously marveled at how the owner of Yuyuanzhai was truly formidable, having made Yuyuanzhai a top brand in a very short span of time.

He hadn’t expected that the girl who had helped him yesterday was actually the owner of Yuyuanzhai.

"Miss, who is this?" Zhang Yuksheng asked somewhat puzzled.

"Let me introduce you. This is Zhang Yuksheng, my top lieutenant," An Yiqing patted Zhang Yuksheng on the shoulder and continued, "Brother Yusheng, this is Liao Jinglin, just returned from Country Jin, and starting from today, he is officially a part of our team."

Zhang Yuksheng was overjoyed upon hearing this, finally, someone to help him out.

"Brother! Welcome! From now on, we’re all one of our own!" Zhang Yuksheng enthusiastically shook Liao Jinglin’s right hand.

Er..." Liao Jinglin gradually came back to reality, nodding repeatedly at the enthusiastic Zhang Yuksheng, "Great! Great!"

Inner Hall

Liao Jinglin, standing behind An Yiqing, was somewhat dazed. This girl is...?

"I am the owner of Yuyuanzhai, An Yiqing." She explained as if noticing the confusion in Liao Jinglin’s mind.

"The owner of Yuyuanzhai? You’re the owner of Yuyuanzhai?!" Liao Jinglin couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes wide as he stared at the delicate and frail girl in front of him.
