Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Many people had congratulated him in advance.
The Qin family’s Fourth Master sounded humble and cautious. “The Yunguang Consortium hasn’t come to a conclusion yet. It’s all still speculation.”
Not far away, Qin Ran was slowly taking out her earphones from her pocket when she heard something and glanced over.
She crossed her legs and casually scoffed.
“What’s wrong?” Cheng Wenru was very concerned about her.
Putting the earphones in her ear, Qin Ran turned on the music and leaned against the chair. “I heard a joke.”
At 9:30 am.
The manager of the Yunguang Consortium in charge of the bidding came out with a contract.
Standing at the forefront, he slightly turned and, with a stroke of his hand, a four-dimensional projection appeared behind him. He turned around and bowed, speaking in a confident and strong voice, “I’m the IT Department’s Editor Yang…”
He subconsciously scanned the dozen or so corporate managers who were bidding. When his gaze fell on the fifth position in the first row, his voice suddenly got stuck.
“… ??!!”
In front of that face…
How could he go on…??
Qin Ran had placed her peaked cap on one of the chairs when she sat down. Now, she put it on again blankly.
She lightly tapped on the armrest with her bony and dazzlingly white fingers.
Cheng Wenru glanced at her. She had heard from Cheng Mu that Qin Ran’s temper wasn’t very good, and she hated noise. But in the past two months, she hadn’t seen how bad her temper was.
Seeing her behavior, she lowered her voice and comforted her. “We’ll leave in a while. Look at their company’s four-dimensional projection, it’s very realistic. You can’t see it anywhere else.”
She felt like Qin Ran might have stayed too long and was a little impatient.
She had brought her here with intentions of showing her the four-dimensional projection.
Cheng Wenru had been very amazed the first time she saw it.
Qin Ran whispered back, “Thank you.”
Glancing up, Yang Shaoqi was going through the slides. Seemingly feeling her gaze on him, his fingers stiffened and shook very obviously when he reached out to slide to the next screen.
“Yang- Yang Shaoqi.” He finally finished introducing himself, not daring to look at the first row again.
Reaching out, he swiped in the air again, sliding past news articles, finally stopping on the product page.
With a straight face, he officially introduced the product rigorously and meticulously.
As if he was reporting to a leader.
After a brief introduction, he opened the doc.u.ment and slightly sighed in relief. “After the headquarters’ consideration, the candidate for this additional investment is—”
On his seat, the Qin family’s Fourth Master arranged his clothes calmly, trying to suppress the corners of his mouth from arching. However, the joy in his eyes was still obvious.
Cheng Wenru had already taken her bag and was about to leave.
“Cheng Wenru, Chairman Cheng.” Yang Shaoqi announced and looked in her direction, slightly relieved.
The smile on the Fourth Master’s face wavered.
“Congratulations, Miss.” The other investors on the field all reacted. Although the Fourth Master was far better than them, it wasn’t difficult to understand that the Yunguang Consortium would choose Cheng Wenru.
After all, Cheng Wenru was part of the Cheng family.
Stunned for only three seconds, Cheng Wenru quickly arranged her expression and stood up, maintaining the aura of a prestigious lazy, full of aura.
She raised her hand and officially thanked the people.
After Yang Shaoqi greeted the other investors, he walked over, polite and cautious. “Chairman Cheng, please come over here. We need to re-sign the contract.”
Cheng Wenru shook hands with Yang Shaoqi, then glanced at Qin Ran. “Ran Ran, you can go back to the car first. I’ll come out in ten minutes.”
She understood that the Yunguang Consortium strictly controlled entrance rights.
Yang Shaoqi smiled and gently said, “Chairman Cheng, the Yunguang Consortium is open to everyone today. This Young Lady can come in with you.”
Really?
Cheng Wenru was stunned. She had to check in to enter the previous time, so why did the rules change today?
But she didn’t read into it and just followed Yang Shaoqi to the elevator.
He swiped his card and entered the 28th floor.
Glancing at the 28th floor, Cheng Wenru’s eyes narrowed. Most people had entered the second-floor last time…
The 28th floor was very quiet. Yang Shaoqi directly took out the contract without beating about the bush.
Cheng Wenru looked through it and signed it after ensuring that the conditions were no different from the previous list.
The whole process took only 10 minutes.
“It’s almost lunchtime.” Getting up, Yang Shaoqi happily shook hands with Cheng Wenru and gentlemanly invited them. “Chairman Cheng, may I have the honor of dining with you?”
Cheng Wenru wouldn’t usually reject such a rare opportunity.
“My apologies, Director Yang, but I have to bring the child to see Beijing’s scenery.” Cheng Wenru retracted her hand and apologized. “I’ll invite you next time when given a chance.”
Director Yang immediately replied, “Not to worry, your business is important.”
He sent Cheng Wenru down to the car.
Cheng Wenru calmly bid him farewell, but she felt rather surprised inside.
Yang Shaoqi today…
Seemed overly enthusiastic.
Not far from the Yunguang Consortium’s gates, when Cheng Wenru’s car drove away, Yang Shaoqi wiped the fine sweat on his forehead.
“Director?” asked the a.s.sistant beside him. “Are you okay?”
“I’m okay.” Yang Shaoqi shook his head, sighing in relief.
She dared to address Miss Qin as a “child”… Yang Shaoqi felt like she must be a big boss.
In the car.
Flipping through the contract, Cheng Wenru looked up with her phoenix eyes. “I can’t believe Director Yang didn’t choose the Qin family…”
Secretary Li also felt puzzled. “Chairman Cheng, have we struck the lottery?”
“The Qin family’s Fourth Master and the Ouyang family have allied. It’ll be advantageous to them no matter whose side I take.” Cheng Wenru closed the contract.
Crossing her legs and playing with a game on the phone, Qin Ran slightly tilted her head and raised an eyebrow.
Cheng Wenru remembered that Qin Ran was a Physics student and probably didn’t like to listen to these kinds of talks. Thinking about how she probably didn’t understand it, she stopped talking and immediately changed the subject.
She asked if her brother liked game consoles.
Qin Ran touched her forehead. “Yeah, very much so. But the games are a little too simple.”
He cleared one round in ten minutes.
“Really?” Cheng Wenru guessed that just like Qin Ran, Qin Ling also liked playing games. She decided to find a more difficult game for him next time.

At the Qin family’s headquarters.
The Fourth Master came back.
His complexion was evidently dark, and his brows were slightly furrowed.
Secretary Yin walked over on her high heels and quickly followed him. “Chairman Qin, Butler Qin and the others are still waiting for you in the conference room.”
Halting, the Fourth Master took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. “They haven’t left yet?”
They were surely patient.
“They have waited for three hours ever since eight o’clock.” Secretary Yin reported.
“Okay. Tell the people in the technical department to prepare. We’ll meet with Butler Qin. This time, he’ll have to give up more shares.” The Qin family’s Fourth Master turned around and walked towards the conference room with the cigarette in his hand.
Inside.
Sitting on the head position, Butler Qin had his eyes closed, looking calm and without the slightest hint of impatience.
Ah Wen stood behind him.
“Boom—”
The conference room’s door was pushed open, and the Fourth Master entered with several people.
He sat in the middle position and looked at Butler Qin. “Butler Qin, sorry to keep you waiting.”
Although his words relayed his penitence, his tone didn’t sound at all apologetic.
People from the technical department also came in with USB flash drives and doc.u.ments.
“Let’s begin.” He glanced at Butler Qin first. “Butler Qin, you have the highest seniority here. Do you want to go first?”
Standing behind Butler Qin, Ah Wen pursed his lips and bitterly pinched his fingers. The Fourth Master had monopolized the Qin family’s studios and had even poached several capable elders from Butler Qin. Wasn’t he just asking the obvious at this point?!
But Butler Qin remained calm and smiled without the slightest hint of anger. “Fourth Master, you can go first.”
The Fourth Master already expected this.
He was the one who knew best whether Butler Qin could produce the content. Glancing at him calmly, he asked the technical department’s deputy to explain the situation.
The technical department’s deputy took the USB flash drive and the files and simulated the entire engine on stage.
This was a public fragment of the Yunguang Consortium’s artificial intelligence published on the Internet by an insider. All IT companies secretly studied this while pretending otherwise on the surface.
The Qin family was of no exception.
However, the code was too obscure, and few companies could decipher it in a short time.
The Fourth Master’s side had only progressed to 80%, but it was still better off than Butler Qin’s semi-finished products.
After the technician finished speaking, the Fourth Master knocked on the table and glanced at Butler Qin. “Butler Qin, it’s your turn.”
After a moment of silence, Butler Qin squeezed the USB flash drive in his hand and glanced at the three old programmers sitting in the same row.
The others didn’t speak, but the one in the middle slightly reeking of alcohol reached out. “I’ll go, Butler Qin.”
He took the USB flash drive handed over by Butler Qin, then walked over to the slides and inserted the USB flash drive into the computer.
Without looking at him, the Fourth Master sipped his tea with his eyes lowered, covering the cold sneer on the corners of his mouth—
He was still struggling on his deathbed.
