Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 241: Chapter 183 Xu Qing: Let My Male Lead Invest in You! Chapter 241: Chapter 183 Xu Qing: Let My Male Lead Invest in You! Because she was quite busy with work and constantly brimming with inspiration for her novel, she hadn’t contacted Tang Song for a while.

Of course, there was another reason—she had no suitable excuse.

After all, they were only connected through work, and without the need for legal activities, she didn’t know what to talk about with him.

Was she supposed to discuss cosplay? Talk about novels?

She didn’t even update her WeChat Moments, so finding a topic was challenging.

But now, Jing was boldly holding hands with him; their progress seemed too fast.

Just over a month ago, they said they were just colleagues! And now they’re a couple?

Damn it! Jealous Jing is so strong!

In the WeChat group.

[White Valley: “The first time I saw his body photo, I knew a boy with such perfect comic artist hands must be very handsome!”]

[Crisp: “His figure looks so good! He seems tall too. @Jing, do you have a frontal photo? I’m willing to pay to see it.”]

[Jing: “@Crisp, I won’t show you, meh meh meh~”]

[Sisi: “Did you guys notice? What Jing has on her hand is a Bvlgari black ceramic ring just like Su Yu’s! It’s so expensive!”]

[Jing: “Hehe, it’s the ring he gave me, isn’t it beautiful? It’s a pity he didn’t wear the same one today, but the watch on his wrist is a gift from me.”]

…

Seeing the words “Su Yu’s model,” a bright light flashed through Xu Qing’s mind.

She had considered buying it before but completely gave up when she saw the price. (Chapter 151)

Fifteen thousand! How many words would she have to write to earn that back!

Xu Qing replied with a hint of sourness, “@Jing, are you two together now?”

[Jing: “Not really, right? We haven’t confessed to each other yet, haven’t spoken our hearts under the romantic night sky, by the streetlight, with the rustling sound of the wind through the leaves. And I find our current interactions super fun; my heart races every time we meet.”]

Xu Qing typed furiously, “So it’s more than friends but less than lovers, huh? This is the most wonderful moment between a man and a woman, cherish it.”

[Jing: “Mhm, thanks for the advice from the enlightened Qingqing.”]

Switching back to the writing interface, Xu Qing’s eyes brightened.

This could work!

If the second male lead has been upgraded to the main lead, there naturally needs to be a supporting female character!

Decided! It’s going to be you, Jing!

A yandere jealous girl, a rich and beautiful woman, with an extremely twisted sense of love and possessiveness.

Just like Gasai Yuno from “Future Diary.”

Great! Perfect!

Xu Qing’s face flushed with excitement, and the upcoming plot would be Lawyer Xu Yanqing VS Jealous Jing!

“Tap tap tap—” The sound of typing rose again.

Xu Qing began to create Jing’s character and background.

The name would be “Bai Jing,” since her skin was so white, something Xu always envied.

On the surface, she seemed like a good girl, but secretly she was a perverse jealous girl with slight masochistic tendencies.

She fell for Tang Song at first sight, attracted to his deep gaze and beautiful hands, fantasizing about being whipped and tormented by him…

Soft music played through her headphones as Xu Qing sat at her computer desk, writing more and more enthusiastically, brimming with inspiration.

Indeed, to become an outstanding writer, one needs to access more material.

…

She watched as Tang Song got into the majestic Maybach and disappeared from sight.

Qiu Yu and the others slowly retracted their gaze, exhaling deeply.

At the end of the gathering, Tang Song sat with Tian Jing and them for a while, had a drink, and caught up briefly.

His inner confidence combined with the presence of a top-level rich beauty by his side made them feel a bit nervous.

A male classmate couldn’t help but lament, “Tang Song has really made it big now. I just looked up Jinxiu Commerce; they’re primarily in clothing trade, but they also deal in electronics, toys, digital products, and more, with business covering the whole country. They operate 5 large stores across Yan Province, it’s a very formidable company.”

“Being the CTO of such a big enterprise, that’s truly impressive.”

…

Wang Ning, who’d been drinking sullenly all evening, had a face red like a boiled shrimp.

Listening to his classmates’ discussions, his eyes were filled with envy and jealousy.

The college mate he once looked down upon had reached such heights and even snagged such a stunning woman; it was unbearably irritating for him.

With a rise of alcohol-induced courage, he burped, his head growing fuzzy.

In a sarcastic tone, he said, “In the end, it’s all just good luck, right? With such a rich beauty to help him, getting promoted is a piece of cake.”

The classmates were stunned, giving Wang Ning odd looks.

When Tang Song was there, you were quiet as a quail, but the moment he left, you started spouting off.

Moreover, Tang Song was their classmate, and it felt somewhat disloyal and tasteless to say such things.

Lu Ziming’s eyebrows furrowed as he heavily patted Wang Ning’s shoulder, saying solemnly, “Wang Ning, it’s best not to speak recklessly about things you don’t understand; Tang Song’s personal abilities are evident to all.”

Qiu Yu nodded, “The attitudes of those rich second-generations show it’s definitely not as you say.”

The other classmates also chimed in agreement.

Feeling like a target, Wang Ning’s face flushed even redder, stubbornly retorted, “That’s just my feeling, you’ll see in the future.”

Qiu Yu changed the subject, “It’s getting late, let’s go back. Thanks everyone for coming. I’m here in Yan City on a business trip and will be staying for a while, so let’s get together again sometime.”

The old classmates bid each other farewell and gradually left.

Wang Ning stood by the roadside, lit a cigarette, and took several harsh drags, cursing under his breath.

Only then did he start to feel a bit better inside.

He pulled out his phone to call a taxi and immediately saw several messages in the company executive group chat.

[Li Meixia: “Rongxin Venture Capital is really something else, they are not at all sincere in discussing financing with us.”]

[Li Meixia: “President Xu kept urging Yuyan to drink, @Hou Shaoyuan, President Hou, have you arrived downstairs? Yuyan is a bit drunk.”]

[Hou Shaoyuan: “I’m almost there, two minutes.”]

…

Looking at the messages in the group, Wang Ning felt somewhat distressed.

In his view, Youjie Housekeeping was already doing quite well, with annual profits around 1 million. A stable development and annual dividends would have been great.

There was absolutely no need to struggle so hard for financing and expansion.

Although he didn’t understand why Shen Yuyan was so persistent, she was, after all, his college first love. Watching her being bullied by people from investment institutions, he was filled with hatred.

Unfortunately, he was powerless to do anything other than curse a few times in the group chat and vent his frustrations.

…

North City Garden.

“Ding dong—ding dong—” The doorbell rang repeatedly.

Xu Qing, who was washing up, wiped her face and came to the door.

Peering through the peephole, she quickly opened the door.

Then Li Meixia, supporting Shen Yuyan, walked in, followed closely by Hou Shaoyuan.

Xu Qing, anxious, steadied her best friend, “Yanyan, are you okay? Why is your face so hot? Such a strong smell of alcohol, why did you drink so much!?”

“I’m fine, I’ll just sleep it off.” Shen Yuyan forced a smile at Li Meixia and the others: “Meixia, Shaoyuan, it’s very late now, you should go back.”

Li Meixia nodded, “Then rest up; we won’t disturb you any longer.”

Hou Shaoyuan opened his mouth, looked at Shen Yuyan who was in bad shape, but in the end, just said “Bye” and walked out with Li Meixia.

After the room door closed.

Shen Yuyan leaned directly on Xu Qing’s shoulder, wrapping her arms around her waist, and slowly closed her eyes, “I’m so sleepy, Qingqing.”

“Then go to sleep, I’ll carry you over.” Xu Qing said as she wrapped her arms around her, attempting to carry her to the bedroom.

Shen Yuyan let out a “ugh” sound, quickly covered her mouth, and dashed to the trash can.

Then a series of violent vomiting sounds followed.

With a heartache, Xu Qing patted her back, then fetched a cup of warm water for her to rinse her mouth.

After a good while.

Shen Yuyan leaned on the sofa, rubbing her sore forehead.

With a bit of an indulgent voice she said: “Qingqing, it’s very likely our company’s financing won’t succeed, your dream of your best friend striking it rich won’t come true either.”

After the investment networking event ended, she had made contact with many individual investors through the organizers.

If they weren’t driving the price down extremely hard, then the conditions were too harsh to accept.

Actual investment institutions were extremely scarce.

Today she had finally gotten in touch with Xu Desheng from Rongxin Venture Capital, but unfortunately, he had come with an agenda targeting her.

After she left, he even hinted in a veiled way about going to a hotel for further discussion over WeChat.

Xu Qing, looking at her dearest friend, tenderly pinched her cheek and hugged her, “What does that matter? I think you’re already excellent. We don’t need to be wealthy; the way things are now is already very good.”

Shen Yuyan rested on her soft chest, squinting her eyes, “It’s not enough, far from enough. For instance, the Marketing Director of Rongxin can insist on making me drink, and he can humiliate me over WeChat.”

“Any random independent investor can reject me, treat me with disdain.”

“Youjie Housekeeping is too small, so small it could fail at any moment. The most profitable business of the company depends on the resources from Uncle Zhang Tianqi. If something happens to him or his uncle, the company will go under.”

“What I want is success, huge success. I want them all to look up to me, respect me; I want to live with more dignity and confidence.”

…

She continued to speak intermittently like this, disclosing her inner thoughts.

Only in front of this close friend of more than ten years, could she let down all her guards and speak her mind freely.

“So tired…” Shen Yuyan muttered and then fell asleep on her.

Gently stroking her friend’s slightly furrowed brows, Xu Qing sighed and her face clouded with worry.

Her best friend had always been strong-willed and ambitious, or to put it bluntly, extremely utilitarian.

This was especially apparent in the way she made friends.

The title of school beauty was partly because of her own deliberate promotion, all to increase her social influence.

The results were evident, like smoothly getting involved in Zhang Tianqi’s startup, and Hou Shaoyuan willingly providing angel investment.

Wang Ning joined the company at a low salary, coding diligently.

If only she could help as well.

No sooner had the thought arisen, Xu Qing’s expression froze.

Tang Song! Tang Song!

Of all the people she knew, Tang Song was the most outstanding and capable.

His company operated from the 30th floor of Cloud Stream Building, and he drove a Mercedes-Benz S-Class worth over a million; he could nonchalantly give Jing such an expensive ring.

He must not lack money!

If she could persuade him to invest in Youjie Housekeeping, wouldn’t she be able to help Yanyan out of her predicament?

Looking at her sleeping friend, Xu Qing gently patted her plump backside.

Her eyes sparkled.

Yanyan, for your sake, I’ll just have to reluctantly curry favor with the protagonist of my novel!

Later, I’ll have him invest in you!

But how should I strike up a conversation with him as a pretext?
