Chapter 750: [Yan Jian Side Story] 27. But why, I don’t hate you as much as I imagined (2 more updates)

"Of course, it’s business." Yan Jian took a deep breath, calmly crossed the small bridge, and walked forward.

"What kind of business?" He folded his fingertips, squinting at her.

She had lost weight after not seeing her for a few days, making her large eyes seem even larger.

Yet, her demeanor appeared increasingly calm and indifferent, as if the previous resentment she had when facing him had been swept away.

Was it because that contract no longer existed, so her hatred for him naturally decreased?

Does that mean that what he did before was really too foolish?

Yan Jian raised her gaze to meet his: "It’s about the studio. Catherine’s project investment comes from you, so after I took over the studio, besides having to repay her investment and agreeing on her profit share after the project launches, I should repay your original investment first."

James raised his eyebrows.

So, even this matter needs to be settled so clearly; is it truly to cut ties?

He snorted: "So, you’re here to repay the money?"

Yan Jian blushed: "Sorry to disappoint you. I don’t have that much money, so I’m not here to repay today."

His eyebrows arched even higher: "How come?! You’re the Tang Family’s granddaughter, you can’t even come up with that mere three million US dollars."

With a face full of sarcasm, Yan Jian felt a chill in her heart.

She restrained the impulse to turn and leave, trying hard to stand firm: "You’re truly wealthy, to casually refer to three million US dollars as ’mere.’ Unfortunately, our Tang Family doesn’t view money so trivially; every penny we earn comes from our own hard work. I’m still not graduated and can’t come up with it, and I’m embarrassed to borrow such a large sum from my family."

Every word of her sarcasm was unmistakable to him. He turned his gaze away gloomily: "Since you’re not here to repay, you’re here to negotiate a delay? How long do you want me to extend it, and how much interest are you willing to pay, tell me."

That money was one he never required her to return!

It was originally... something he was willing to offer for her.

But she insisted on repaying!

Does she really need everything cleared and settled to be happy, huh?

Yan Jian pursed her lips, unable to ignore the complete contempt in his cold expression.

"I’m not here to ask for your indulgence or leniency either!"

He tilted his head, unable to resist raising another eyebrow, then turned back to look at her: "Then what are you here for?"

Yan Jian inhaled: "I’m here to discuss a partnership with you. I can’t repay you that money, but I have confidence in giving you a return on that investment, so I suggest you formally authorize that money to me, keeping it in the studio as an equity investment."

He stared at her for a long time, then unexpectedly let out a laugh: "Ha? You want to partner with me?"

He must have heard wrong? The one who always avoided him at every turn, actually took the initiative to come and say she wants to partner with him?

His retort made Yan Jian feel somewhat embarrassed.

She bit her lips, "Yes, you heard right. Since I’m soft on taking someone’s money, and I can’t repay it now! So if you want to laugh, feel free to laugh out loud in front of me."

Despite her saying this, his desire to laugh turned into an inability to laugh. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

He squinted his eyes, gazing again at the distant Blue Glaze Buddha Head behind her.

He took a deep breath: "How do you plan to cooperate? Do you have a project plan? If so, bring it for me to see; leave it on my desk, and you can leave; if not, then turn around and go prepare it."

Yan Jian gritted her teeth: "Of course I prepared! Do you think I’m that unreliable in business?"

With a firm face, she walked up and slammed the project plan she was holding onto his desk: "Please review it!"

James squinted: "Fine, I will look. But I don’t have time to respond to you now. Go back first, and if I finish, I’ll call you with my opinions."

Yan Jian bit her lip: "Can’t you read it now?"

"No." There was not a trace of warmth on his face.

Yan Jian pointed at the document: "It won’t take long to go through it; I’ve written it succinctly. The calculation of specific investment returns was even estimated with a certified accounting firm, not just made on a whim, so it won’t take you much time to read."

His attitude of hastily wanting to dismiss her made her very uncomfortable.

He gave a cold snort: "You think your matters are important, but let me tell you, every case in my Fude Group is worth billions. Your mere three million-dollar investment, with who knows how much return left, isn’t worth a minute of my time. I said to leave it, after talking this long with you, I’ve already given you enough face."
