Forcing Me to Be a Godly Tycoon, Right?

After that, Zhang Jingdong and Ye Jinyan signed a preliminary investment agreement with Ma Yun and his team. They chatted for a while longer, and around 4 o’clock, Zhang Jingdong and his party left Ali’s company.

They left Huaxing Building and got into the car.

Ye Jinyan couldn’t help but laugh and said, ”I didn’t expect you could actually pull it off. I’ve been busy for over half a month and couldn’t make it work, yet you managed to get them to agree to all our requests in less than two hours!”

This time, Zhang Jingdong uncharacteristically didn’t claim all the credit: ”Don’t say that. Without your efforts over the past half month, I couldn’t have managed it so quickly either.”

”So this time, you deserve 60% of the credit, and at most, I take 40%.”

Ye Jinyan was clearly surprised by Zhang Jingdong’s modesty, and a hint of appreciation flickered in her eyes.

”This isn’t like you at all. Normally, you’d be overly proud by now, wouldn’t you?”

Zhang Jingdong smirked: ”It depends on the situation, okay? If it’s a personal skill that I can do but you can’t, then I have reason to be proud. But for a top-tier investment project like this, one person’s strength is ultimately limited. Success in this kind of thing is the result of everyone working together, so I don’t dare take all the credit.”

Ye Jinyan was slightly taken aback and said calmly, ”You’re showing your mature side again. To be honest, it’s pretty charming.”

Zhang Jingdong felt secretly pleased and then said, ”By the way, does that ancient style clothing store you mentioned before have men’s clothes?”

Ye Jinyan hesitated for a moment and casually said, ”Yes, it does. Why, do you want to join me in wearing ancient clothes later?”

”Let’s have a look first. If I find something I like, I’ll also experience what it’s like to feel like an ancient person by the West Lake.”

Ye Jinyan was instantly intrigued: ”You’re the one who said it!”

With that, Ye Jinyan immediately took out her phone and made a call.

After hanging up, she turned to Lin Qiuyue and said, ”Qiuyue, let’s go to the Lotus Moon Workshop.”

”Alright.”

About twenty minutes later, the car slowly stopped at the entrance of an alley.

The four of them got out of the car and walked into the alley.

The alley was about 100 meters long, with shops on both sides featuring ancient styles, and even many young men and women passing by were wearing ancient clothes.

Zhang Jingdong looked curious: ”This place is quite interesting, so many people are wearing ancient clothes.”

Ye Jinyan laughed and explained, ”Actually, many people want to experience ancient life, and since Hang City has a long-standing ancient flavor, naturally, there are many ancient clothing enthusiasts.”

”Most of them are university students who come here on weekends to get dressed in ancient clothes and then go to West Lake to take photos.”

Zhang Jingdong glanced around, finding that the faces of those young people indeed looked like university students.

He then said, ”That’s perfect. I’m a proper university student, so today I’ll have a proper experience.”

Ye Jinyan heard this and turned her head to look at Zhang Jingdong, teasing, ”I have to say, at the moment, you really don’t look like a big boss, you’re just like a college student on campus.”

Zhang Jingdong chuckled: ”On the other hand, you still look like a domineering female president, so our duo is like the domineering female president and her college boy toy.”

Ye Jinyan was instantly slightly taken aback and said, ”Hey... you... you actually said that, aren’t you belittling yourself a bit too much?”

Zhang Jingdong not only didn’t mind but also looked pleased: ”You just don’t understand. Being maintained by a young, beautiful, well-figured, and super-rich boss like you would make other men insanely jealous!”

”It’s no exaggeration to say that even being worth billions wouldn’t make them this envious.”

Ye Jinyan, receiving the compliment, blushed and said angrily, ”Tch... I wouldn’t maintain you!”

”Then how about... I maintain you?”

”Do you want to die!”

Ye Jinyan gave Zhang Jingdong a fierce glare and then quickly walked away.

Zhang Jingdong laughed to himself: Tsk tsk, now I can tease her casually with no issues, seems like it’s time to find a chance for some physical contact!

He quickly followed along.

After walking another ten or so meters, a shop sign reading ”Lotus Moon Workshop” hung prominently in the distance, and the four of them headed inside.

The shop wasn’t big, maybe 150 square meters at most, but its decor was clearly more upscale compared to the shops they had passed earlier.

Moreover, unlike the bustling shops they’d seen along the way, this place was relatively quiet, with only four or five customers inside.

Zhang Jingdong glanced around and quickly understood.

The ancient clothes here were of obviously high quality, not something an average university student could afford.

The female owner who was sorting goods by the shelf quickly noticed Ye Jinyan’s arrival and came over enthusiastically: ”Mr. Ye, you’re here!”

Ye Jinyan nodded slightly.

”We just got a new batch of products last week. Would you like to see the styles?”

Ye Jinyan suppressed her embarrassment, pretending to be indifferent: ”I’m here to look at men’s clothing today.”

”Men’s clothing!?”

The woman was momentarily stunned, then quickly noticed Zhang Jingdong standing behind Ye Jinyan, her heart instantly igniting with gossip.

”Alright... Would you, sir, like to have something custom-made, or are you looking for something ready-made?”

”Ready-made.”

The female owner turned her head to assess Zhang Jingdong carefully, then said, ”Sir, you’re about 183 cm tall and weigh approximately 70 kg?”

Zhang Jingdong smiled and nodded: ”That’s right, good eye!”

The woman smiled gracefully: ”Please follow me.”

The four of them followed her to a shelf at the back of the store, which was filled with various ancient men’s clothing.

Ye Jinyan glanced over them briefly, then turned to Zhang Jingdong: ”You pick.”
