Shen Youjin knew he was joking with her, but she still followed his words to bring out her own purpose.
"Both in terms of martial arts and literary skills. Whoever loses will be my investor. How about it?"
Jiang Zeshen didn't expect she still remembered this. He stopped joking with her and just raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who else have you found?"
"You're my first choice." Shen Youjin shrugged. "If you're really not willing, I'll make other plans."
Hearing her words, Jiang Zeshen's eyes showed a bit of seriousness. "Why me?"
He had long noticed that compared with her other four ex - boyfriends, although he was generous, he was definitely not the one who could spend the most money. But she came to him for cooperation, which was really a bit unexpected.
"Because I believe you won't blackmail me because of this, and you're very loyal and trustworthy in doing things." Shen Youjin showed a charming smile. "I trust you."
Hearing her evaluation of him, Jiang Zeshen's heart skipped a beat, but he still pretended to be skeptical and asked, "Baby, you're not deliberately flattering me just to get me to invest in you, are you?"
"Even if it's flattery, others don't even have this chance." Shen Youjin smiled and said to him neither overbearingly nor humbly. "Moreover, what I said is not a lie."
Hearing this, Jiang Zeshen was silent for a few seconds. "Let's talk in person later."
"Okay."
Shen Youjin hung up the phone. Actually, she had already thought it through. In her current situation, she should find an investor with the least risk to herself.
Although Fu Qingye was willing to spend money for her, his bad temper and possessiveness made her feel headache just thinking about it. By then, before the studio could develop, she would have to serve this great god.
Needless to say about Gu Zhiyuan and Bai Beichen. One was only interested in profit and would probably scheme against her; while Bai Beichen was still a child. If the Bai family knew she had found him as her investor, the studio would never have peace even if it was opened.
As for Li Nanchuan, she shook her head with a faint smile. Forget it. She had been hurt too deeply and didn't want to have any connection with him.
And if she found another investor, it was very likely that this person would ruin the whole thing once he knew about it.
Looking at it this way, no one was more suitable than Jiang Zeshen.
She went back to the ward. The nurse had already applied medicine to Bai Beichen's wound. Seeing her come back, Bai Beichen blinked. "Sister, my arm hurts."
He looked innocent. His peach - blossom eyes were filled with pure hope for comfort, just the same as before.
If it had been before, no matter how angry Shen Youjin was, she would have been touched by his look. But at this moment, she remembered Jiang Zeshen's reminder. Looking at Bai Beichen's swollen arm and the red corners of his eyes, a big question mark appeared in her mind.
"How did you get this injury?" Her eyes were full of doubt. "What did the police say?"
Bai Beichen briefly told her what had happened at that time. Seeing that her expression remained unchanged, he suddenly panicked.
"Sister, don't you trust me?" He was stunned for a moment and said aggrievedly, "I wouldn't lie to anyone, especially sister. I've given all my savings to sister. Does sister still doubt me?"
He had forced that ten million on her. Looking at his battle - damaged appearance, Shen Youjin felt indebted. In the end, she couldn't ask any more questions.
After all, Jiang Zeshen had no evidence. He was just talking.
She changed the topic and asked if his injury had hurt the bone.
Seeing her tone soften, Bai Beichen suddenly stood up and hugged her. The fresh lemon fragrance came over, the unique smell of a young man.
"Sister..." Bai Beichen buried his head in her neck. His voice was full of uneasiness. "I know they're all very powerful, but please don't leave me, okay?"
He was like a deserted child. Even if she couldn't see his expression, it still made people's hearts tremble.
Shen Youjin's hand hung in the air. She tried hard to restrain herself from reaching out to touch his head.
His existence was really easy to arouse a woman's maternal instinct, especially when there was a child in her belly.
She sighed and broke free from his embrace, keeping a distance from him.
"Come and talk to me about these things when you can be independent. I still have something to do. I'll leave first."
After saying that, she picked up the bag on the table and turned to leave the hospital.
The reason for her breakup with Bai Beichen always weighed on her mind. Just thinking about it made her feel uncomfortable.
In this world, there are many couples who like to create a problem, hoping to solve another problem with it. But in the end, the answers to both problems are wrong.
For example, things will get better after getting married, after having a child, or after a long time.
But will it really get better? It's just self - deception and torture.
She wasn't a person who liked to be tortured. She wanted an answer, even if the process wasn't easy.
If she couldn't solve the problem, she wouldn't mind getting rid of the person who caused the problem.
When she was almost at the parking lot, Shen Youjin involuntarily slowed down.
She saw Chi Tingwan getting out of a car. Her eyes were blood - red, and she looked in a very bad state.
An alarm bell rang in Shen Youjin's heart instantly. Compared with other women, Chi Tingwan really seemed like a mad dog to her!
Especially at this moment, this feeling was even stronger.
Sure enough, as soon as Chi Tingwan came in front of her, she was about to slap her. Shen Youjin reacted quickly and grabbed Chi Tingwan's wrist.
"Miss Chi, don't you have a memory?" Shen Youjin frowned. "When will your family learn to tie you up with a rope?"
She hadn't bothered with Chi Tingwan about the previous incident, but unexpectedly, the other party came to provoke her again. Did she really think she was easy to bully?
"You bitch!" Chi Tingwan didn't exercise much and was physically weak due to excessive drinking and debauchery. At this moment, her wrist was being pinched painfully. It took her a lot of effort to shake Shen Youjin off. "Are you shameless? You're entangled with several men on one hand, and on the other hand, you're after my fiancé. How dare you? In the end, you're just after money. Here's two hundred thousand. Take the money and leave my fiancé!"
Her voice was very loud and immediately attracted the on - lookers. They all cast mean looks at Shen Youjin.
Looking at the check Chi Tingwan handed over, Shen Youjin almost burst out laughing at the amount.
She knew the Chi family had started from scratch, but this check was even cheaper than a bag she had bought before. Did she think she could humiliate her with this?
"Miss Chi, as far as I know, the Bai family and the Chi family haven't held an engagement ceremony, and Bai Beichen has never publicly announced your relationship. If you have delusions, I can introduce a hospital for you. Don't come to me to look for trouble!"
"Moreover, two hundred thousand can't even buy one of my bags. Miss Chi, save your breath!"
After saying that, she didn't look at Chi Tingwan's expression anymore and bypassed her to walk towards her car.
But she hadn't walked far when there was suddenly a rush of footsteps behind her, followed by a strong sense of killing and a deep, intimidating male voice that was deafening!
"——Miss Chi, deliberately hurting someone is subject to criminal liability!"
Shen Youjin turned around, and her pupils dilated instantly. How could it be him?
