Gentle footsteps echoed in the living room.

Zhao Yaqian held fresh flowers in her hands, inserting them into crystal vases at the corner, coffee table, and dining table.

Tulips, baby’s breath, daisies…

She knelt on the carpet in front of the sofa, leaning forward, sniffing the fresh, natural fragrance of the flowers on the coffee table.

The afternoon sun streamed in through the white sheer curtains, warm and comfortable.

The main color scheme of the living room was off-white and light blue, with fabric sofas, wooden cabinets…

In the open kitchen, the white cabinets were paired with black marble countertops, equipped with various high-end kitchen appliances.

The walls were adorned with various art paintings, photos, and fashionable hangings.

Moving down the hallway to the master bedroom.

A large double bed was placed in the center, with a pale pink padded headboard and two exquisite wall lamps; when the lights were on at night, it looked romantic and beautiful.

A walk-in closet displayed all sorts of fine fashions and accessories.

In the most conspicuous position, there were two Hermes Birkins and one LV Carryall.

Standing on the empty space in the bedroom’s rest area, Zhao Yaqian looked enraptured.

Since May 24th, 20 days had passed.

Following her boyfriend’s requests, she had spent a great deal of time and effort, with the help of Xue and her cousin, decorating the house based on her own preference and comfort.

She had furnished the home with everything she desired, creating her own dream home.

She had grown up in a small county town, where her family was not wealthy but managed to get by.

Originally, her family had a more than 50-square-meter two-bedroom apartment in an old residential building.

That place also carried all her memories from birth to high school.

However, after her mother was scammed by telecom fraudsters, the house was sold.

Due to poor renovations, location, and age, it sold for less than two hundred thousand yuan.

Every time she thought about the house she had lived in all her life just disappearing like that, Zhao Yaqian felt very upset, so she rarely went home after graduating from high school.

Now, looking at this large western-style house she had decorated herself, Zhao Yaqian’s frustrations completely dissolved, giving her a strong sense of security and happiness.

Everything was so perfect, just like the castles in her dreams when she was a child.

What was more important was that her beloved boyfriend was here too.

As she was lost in her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang.

Picking up the cell phone from the table, Zhao Yaqian pressed her lips together tightly, her emotions complicated.

[Mom]

She answered the call, “Hello, mom.”

Immediately, her mother’s hesitant voice came through the earpiece, “Qianqian, are you busy right now?”

“No, Mom, what’s up?”

There was a pause on the other end, and then in a weak voice, her mother said, “Well, you know after I lost my job, I’ve been working at your aunt’s restaurant.

Now your aunt wants to open a branch on the east ring of the county town, and I was thinking of putting in some money to become a partner in this shop.

You know our family is in so much debt, and just by your father and me doing odd jobs, who knows when we’ll see the end of it.”

Zhao Yaqian’s heart skipped a beat, “Mom, can’t you just stop messing around, and besides, where would our family get the money to invest?”

“This… Well…” Her mother’s voice sounded tense, “Actually, it won’t need much money, for rent, decoration, equipment purchase and all that, our share would be about one hundred thousand yuan, could you lend it to me?”

Hearing this, Zhao Yaqian began to understand.

It was definitely the twenty thousand yuan she gave to her little aunt last time that made her mother know she could borrow money from her boyfriend.

With Tang Song’s evidently huge financial power, it tempted her mother.

Her aunt’s place was a small two-story restaurant, quite famous locally, and business had always been good.

Her parents always talked about it with envy, and this time they probably wanted to jump on the opportunity.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Yaqian spoke loudly, “Mom, we still owe six hundred thousand yuan! Just calm down, what if it loses money again?”

Immediately, sobbing came through the earpiece, her mother choked up, “Qianqian, it’s all my fault for dragging you all down, I just want to try and earn some more money. You know I’m just a waitress, making a little over two thousand a month, living without seeing the light of day. Now that there’s finally an opportunity, I was hoping…”

Zhao Yaqian’s heart ached and she felt helpless as she listened to her mother’s intermittent crying.

Her mind was a mess, unsure of what to do.

“Ding-dong—ding-dong—”, the crisp sound of the doorbell suddenly rang out.

Zhao Yaqian quickly interrupted, “Mom, someone’s at the door, let’s talk later.”

“Oh, oh, then… Qianqian, you go ahead.”

After hanging up, Zhao Yaqian hurried to the entrance.

Through the LED display, she could clearly see Lin Muxue standing at the door.

A relieved smile instantly appeared on Zhao Yaqian’s face.

Her strategist had arrived!

Opening the door, Zhao Yaqian embraced her warmly, affectionately saying, “Muxue, I was just thinking of contacting you, and here you are, that’s great!”

Lin Muxue pressed her lips into a light smile, raised her right hand and said cheerfully, “Qianqian, I bought your favorite steak set from SY Restaurant, let’s eat together.”

“Thanks, Xue, love you, mwah~” Zhao Yaqian kissed her on her delicate cheek, and her mood instantly brightened.

“Oh right, I bought two pairs of Balenciaga’s new alphabet stockings recently, super sexy, and I brought one for you today,” Lin Muxue said playfully, winking, “after all, you go through a lot over here.”

“Uh… thank you, Xue. I’ll send you a set of skincare products later.”

After sharing a trip to Shanghai and staying together, their relationship had grown extremely close.

Zhao Yaqian’s trust in this good friend had caught up to that of her cousin, Ting.

This was her most compatible friend after many years of interacting.

Xue, beautiful and kind-hearted, a wealthy elite in finance, took great care of her and taught her a lot.

As a “golden canary” still in the early stages of development, she found many things she lacked in the other person.

While chatting, they walked into the living room. Zhao Yaqian hugged her arm and said affectionately, “Xue, there’s something I need your help with.”

Lin Muxue was slightly startled, her heart beginning to race, and she said enthusiastically, “Yaqian, we have such a good relationship, I treat you like a real sister, there’s no need to be so formal, just ask, and I’ll definitely help if I can.”

Yaqian! Once I win Tang Song’s heart, we’ll be even closer than sisters!

“Ding! Congratulations Player, [Partner – Zhao Yaqian] Cultivation Plan Task 2 [Golden Canary’s Gorgeous Nest] has been completed.”

“[Partner – Zhao Yaqian] Growth Progress +10%.”

“[Partner – Zhao Yaqian] receives [Golden Canary Gift Package*1].”

Tang Song stopped what he was doing, his eyes revealing intense delight.

The Task 2 for Yaqian was finally completed!

He leaned back in the boss chair.

He opened the system interface, entered the [Partner] module, and clicked on the character card.

[Partner: Zhao Yaqian (19 years old)]

[Character: Golden Canary]

[Height: 180CM, Weight: 64 kg]

[Constitution: 66, Endurance: 65, Agility: 56, Comprehension: 59]

[Cultivation Plan Task 3: The Golden Canary’s Ambition]

[Task Content: A golden canary with its own gorgeous nest feels greatly satisfied and secure. Without worries, the golden canary starts to look towards the sky, dreaming of its future. Please have Zhao Yaqian seriously think about the business field, products, or services she wants to engage in, select a direction to focus on, conduct market research, and establish a simple network of industry relationships.]

[Task Reward: Growth Progress 10%, Comprehension +1, Golden Canary’s Skill Pack *1]

[Task Progress: Not Completed]

[Note: For a partner without entrepreneurial or management skills, the best choice is undoubtedly to invest in mature enterprises. Please guide the player patiently, helping her to grow better.]

…

After reading the task introduction, Tang Song gently stroked his chin.

For Zhao Yaqian, a 19-year-old high school graduate, this task was much more difficult than the previous two.

But this was inevitable, after all, she had initially chosen [C: Difficult Mode (Fluttering Golden Canary)].

To have a well-rounded career plan, she needed to put in the corresponding effort.

Moreover, the rewards were quite good, especially the [Comprehension +1], which was equivalent to a boost in talents.

Subsequently, Tang Song’s gaze turned to Zhao Yaqian’s character card, where in the center, a golden gift package quietly floated.

He selected [Golden Canary Gift Package], and immediately opened it.

“Ding! [Partner – Zhao Yaqian] receives an attribute reward [Endurance +2].”

“Ding! [Partner – Zhao Yaqian] receives startup business funding.”

The system screen flickered, and rows of text leapt out.

[The Slover Trust Family Trust gains an injection of 10 million US dollars, which will set up as a special fund within the trust to provide startup capital for family members.]

[Beneficiary Zhao Yaqian, upon submitting a detailed business plan and getting approval from the Trust Management Committee, can receive a certain amount of financial support.]

[To reduce the economic risk family members might face in the early stages of development, the trust provides a certain risk buffer mechanism. If the project encounters major setbacks leading to financial losses, compensation or loan deferment support can be provided according to a certain ratio or limit…]

The system’s description of this special fund was very detailed.

It included terms such as financial support, risk buffering, educational and training support.

Tang Song read through it earnestly and understood what was meant by “requiring substantial resources and capital” when he made the route choice.

For instance, the 10 million US dollars injected was an expenditure from his in-game assets.

Of course, this money was not entirely for the benefit of Zhao Yaqian alone; others could also apply.

The next step was to help his beautician friend determine her development direction.

Based on the description, this career line was not just a light task; it would definitely be very challenging for a beautician.

Moreover, there was the subsequent business plan and committee review.

Tang Song frowned slightly; although he could also provide some help, he was quite busy, and there were inevitably things he might overlook.

He could look for Zhang Chengyuan, the head of Gathering Emotion Gold, to arrange someone to guide and assist Yaqian in completing these tasks.
