Lin Qingxue looked at the ssage, her gaze blank, feeling as if she was in a dream.
"Ms. Lin? Ms. Lin..."
Lin Qiaoxia watched Lin Qingxue's reaction and asked in a strange tone a few tis.
Only then did Lin Qingxue co to her senses, not even pausing to first share the good news with Mu Jinyu, she quickly put away her phone and said to Lin Qiaoxia, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was too excited, I lost my composure..."
"It's okay." Lin Qiaoxia suppressed the odd feeling in her heart and said to Lin Qingxue with a smile.
Afterward, the two exchanged a few more words before Lin Qingxue finally said goodbye and left.
Stepping out of Jinyu Tower, standing amidst the bustling crowd of Wuhu Plaza, Lin Qingxue's expression was still a bit dazed, still hard to believe.
Then, she hurriedly took out her phone to share the good news with Mu Jinyu, telling him she had really succeeded in securing the cooperation with Jinyu Group at the Jinling branch, and her speed of repaynt might be even quicker now.
After sending the ssage, Lin Qingxue stared continuously at her phone screen.
However, Lin Qingxue waited for three to five minutes, and Mu Jinyu still did not reply.
Lin Qingxue was used to it, knowing that Mu Jinyu's lack of response for so long probably ant he was busy, and even if he saw it later, he might not reply to her again.
Feeling slightly disappointed, Lin Qingxue put away her phone, swung her little fist with force, feeling today was yet another day filled with hope.
"This guy really is my benefactor."
In a soft murmur, Lin Qingxue quickly got into a car to return to the Lin Family and inform Elder Lin that she had successfully secured the cooperation with Jinyu Group.
After about ten minutes.
Lin Qingxue arrived back at the Lin Family residence, then relayed the news to Elder Lin.
Elder Lin, who had been sitting in his study reading, displayed an indifferent expression that changed after hearing Lin Qingxue's words. With a "clatter," the book in his hands fell onto the desk.
He turned to look at Lin Qingxue, his expression a mix of excitent and skepticism as he asked, "Are you serious? You really secured the cooperation with Jinyu Group?"
"It's true." Lin Qingxue nodded emphatically, then took out the contract to show Elder Lin.
Elder Lin's hands trembled slightly as he took it, examining it carefully and alternately furrowing and smoothing his brows.
After finishing, Elder Lin, who was no fool, nodded slightly and with a look of appreciation in his eyes, said to Lin Qingxue, "The terms of this contract are acceptable. Although we won't make much profit from cooperating with Jinyu Group, and might even have to contribute so, as long as we can establish a connection with Jinyu Group, this loss ans nothing. With their support, we can quickly recoup."
"Yes, that's what I was thinking too." Lin Qingxue nodded slightly.
Elder Lin remained silent, his gaze on Lin Qingxue complex.
He thought to himself, if only Qingxue were a boy.
She was so dutiful, having run off thousands of miles to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains in Miao Zombie to find opportunities after I beca ill, although it was futile and she suffered a lot, her filial piety was truly invaluable.
Besides, unlike the younger generations of the Lin Family, she was ambitious and had a head for business. If she were my grandson, I would feel completely at ease entrusting the Lin Family to her.
What a pity...
Thinking thus, Elder Lin shook his head lightly and said, "Hmm, you've done well. Let's go, notify the others to co over, and we'll hold a eting."
"Yes." Lin Qingxue agreed and stood up to leave the study with her grandfather.
A few minutes later.
In the conference room of the Lin Family, the family mbers gathered again upon Elder Lin's summons, waiting for Elder Lin to speak.
At this mont, inside the conference room.
Elder Lin and Lin Qingxue had not yet arrived, and people were already unable to refrain from whispering.
"Why did the elder call us back just less than an hour after we just t?"
"Looking at the situation, it must be that Qingxue has had so results from talking about cooperation with Jinyu Group, right?"
"Probably? I guess she was kicked out by Jinyu Group, and the elder felt embarrassed and wants one of us to step in."
"..."
After a few snickers, Elder Lin and Lin Qingxue entered the conference room together.
Seeing this, everyone imdiately fell silent.
Elder Lin took the main seat, then patted the spot next to him and said to Lin Qingxue, "Qingxue, sit here."
Seeing this, People of Lin Family all showed a look of disbelief.
Normally, Elder Lin did not treat Lin Qingxue this kindly; it was usually Lin Zhiping and others who sat by his side.
Even a short while ago when he had just recovered from a serious illness, mistakenly believing that it was the Fountain of Youth Water brought back by Lin Qingxue that did the trick, he had not been so amiable towards her. Content orıginally cos from Nove1Fire
Thinking of this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat, secretly sensing that things were not good.
Indeed, after Lin Qingxue obediently sat down next to Elder Lin, the elder swept his glaring gaze over those present and said in a deep voice, "I called you all back for a eting primarily to notify you of one thing; I think you might have guessed it already…"
Lin Zhiping couldn't help but ask, "Grandfather, could it be… that the cooperation with Jinyu Group has been secured?"
Upon hearing Lin Zhiping's inquiry, Elder Lin's solemn deanor slightly softened, then he nodded and said, "Yes, exactly. Qingxue took the lead and secured the contract for cooperation with Jinyu Group within ten minutes."
Having said that, he took out a folder and passed the contract brought back by Lin Qingxue to another Lin Family junior sitting beside him for his inspection.
This person was also highly regarded by Elder Lin. His position in the Lin Family was comparable to that of Lin Zhiping.
After accepting the contract, his face beca grim, and he started inspecting it with a serious expression. After a few glances, he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Grandfather, what kind of contract is this? Aren't we at a loss cooperating with Jinyu Group like this?"
"What? What kind of contract is it? Brother, let see it."
The other Lin Family junior sitting next to him imdiately asked anxiously.
Seeing that Elder Lin said nothing, his eyes betrayed a hint of amusent. Thinking he had guessed Elder Lin's intention, thinking that Elder Lin was annoyed with Qingxue, this wasteful woman, and wanted to hold a criticism eting to allow them to properly reprimand Lin Qingxue, he passed the contract to the person next to him for inspection.
Elder Lin glanced at the person and secretly shook his head, thinking, 'Truly, so wood cannot be carved. Now, I want to see how many in the Lin Family can be truly relied upon.'
Soon enough, everyone had taken turns looking at the contract, most of them exclaid in shock.
Then they said, such a loss-making contract, no wonder their cousin managed to secure it; if they went, they could do the sa.
After Lin Zhiping finished reading it, he pondered for a mont and said, "Quiet."
Then nobody dared to say anymore.
Lin Zhiping said, "This contract seems to offer us no benefits, but why haven't you considered that if the contract were fair, why would Jinyu Group cooperate with a group like ours and not seek out the Su Family, the Lv Family, or the Ning Family?"
Upon hearing this, everyone imdiately showed so reflection on their faces.
Lin Zhiping said, "Although we may lose money now in cooperating with them, once our cooperation with Jinyu Group stabilizes, won't others who wish to ingratiate themselves with us bring in endless wealth?"
