Slam!

The wall of defenses that surrounded Xuxu’s heart seemed to have crumbled all of a sudden. Her eyes sparkled with emotion as she continued looking at him.

He had really done this for her—for Tiny Stars Orphanage.

It was the only reason that she could think of. But to hear it from him directly, it felt more like a confirmation.

She was shocked, surprised and touched ...

Her feelings were indescribable at that moment.

Yan Rusheng was very pleased and satisfied when he saw Xuxu’s expression. “Do you feel that you’ve painted the wrong image of me in the past? And now you’re feeling guilty and sorry? Do you feel that you’ve been too petty, whereas I’m generous and magnanimous?”

Wen Xuxu was speechless...

Would he die if he stopped being arrogant and narcissistic for once?

Although she was really touched, reality brought her back to her senses.

She said, “However, the company can’t afford to cope with any additional projects right now. So I would still need to disapprove.”

She can search for another location for Tiny Stars Orphanage. She would definitely be able to find an ideal place for them in the capital city.

Yan Rusheng’s face fell when he heard her disapproval. He coldly said, “I’ve already decided. Have you ever seen me change my mind?”

After a brief pause, he added, “Except for you.”

Xuxu didn’t know what he was referring to, but shrugged it off for it wasn’t the right time to decipher it.

“This is about billions—not millions—of yuan. Yan Rusheng, don’t you know about the company’s current situation?”

“I’ll still have my way,” he confidently said.

“What’s the bidding price?” Xuxu asked.

Yan Rusheng said, “Between three and four billion.”

Xuxu seemed to be instantly enlightened. The price of the land was fairly reasonable, given that it was situated between a few major cities.

However, with Flourish & Prosper’s current situation, resources and manpower were stretched.

After they acquire the land, they have to take into consideration that they have to attract investors.

She pondered for a moment before asking him, “What about the Board of Directors?”

The directors have always preferred a safer approach, and they definitely would not agree with taking such a risky venture.

They have a few ongoing and upcoming projects. If any problems with the finances should arise, they would be in deep trouble.

Yan Rusheng lifted an eyebrow. “What has it got to do with them?”

Xuxu was speechless. How could he ignore the rest of the directors and go ahead with his own decision? This guy’s arrogance knows no boundaries.

But she knew that even if he insisted on his way, the Board of Directors won’t be able to change his mind.

Xuxu persisted and said, “I’m still not in favor.”

Yan Rusheng ignored her and said, “Stay back after work tonight. We will be preparing the document.”

Xuxu responded with a curt ‘oh’ and didn’t say a word afterward.

...

After Xuxu ended work, she stayed back as what Yan Rusheng had requested.

Actually, there wasn’t anything she could help them with. Yan Rusheng went through the specific details and requirements with another person as they prepared for the bidding.

She fell asleep on the couch and when she woke up, it was already dawn.

Yan Rusheng was seated at his desk as he scanned through some documents.

Xuxu sleepily rubbed her eyes and looked around the room. The person who was with them earlier had left. She rose and went to his desk. “Have you finished with the preparations?”

Yan Rusheng nodded.

He passed her the document that he was holding to Xuxu and said, “Take a look.”

Xuxu received it and flipped to the first page.

She ignored the details and went straight to the bidding price he had prepared.
