Chapter 879: Chapter 361: Parting Makes the Heart Grow Fonder—Moved by Yan Ning!

"Based on a feeling?" Zhang Jingdong lifted his hand then, tilting up her beautiful chin, "Mr. Yan, aren’t you being a little dishonest? How about some truth?"

Yan Ning paused, then sighed and said, "Alright, the truth is, that day I was just curious and briefly summarized all your current businesses."

"And then?"

"And then I found out that although you have quite a few ventures and most are very profitable, due to your previous big investments, the funds on the books for all your companies currently shouldn’t exceed 300 million."

"If you were to invest 50 million US Dollars in Ali all at once, you might not be able to come up with that money immediately."

Zhang Jingdong instinctively felt a bit tense because his biggest fear was someone investigating the source of his money, especially someone close who knew his background.

But fortunately, Yan Ning only looked into this much, which he could still manage, though he absolutely couldn’t let her make a habit of it.

So he said casually, "Mr. Yan, checking on me like this, I suspect it’s not just out of curiosity, right?"

"Are you afraid that I’m just a guy using a pretty face to cheat people out of their money and affection, and worried about being deceived yourself?"

Yan Ning was flustered earlier because she was worried Zhang Jingdong might overthink, so she quickly said, "Absolutely not! Jingdong, I... I truly was just curious!"

"After all, you’ve achieved such amazing success at such a young age, and now that you’re my boyfriend, I just wanted to understand you better by observing your development trajectory. I truly have no other intentions, you must believe me!"

"Besides... I am worried about you. After all, you are venturing into so many industries simultaneously, disrupting quite a few people’s interests openly and behind the scenes, so I hoped to understand your company better to help you navigate potential dangers from the shadows."

"After all, business is like a battlefield, one wrong move and everything could be lost. Plus, you’re investing so much energy elsewhere, so I just wanted to help keep an eye on things as much as possible."

"And lastly, if I genuinely doubted you fearing you’d deceive me, how could I possibly have offered to lend you money willingly?"

Zhang Jingdong suddenly realized, and he had previously heard from Lin Xirui and Wang Tao that Yan Ning had helped them solve many operational issues and even introduced them to many connections.

So he smiled and wiped the corner of Yan Ning’s mouth.

"See... and you say you don’t care about me, acting all high and mighty before me, but you’ve been secretly helping me all along!"

"The hardest thing to repay is a beauty’s grace, Mr. Yan, I’m genuinely touched, I can only repay you with my heart!"

As he spoke, Zhang Jingdong was about to pull a grand gesture.

Yan Ning quickly swatted away his mischievous hand again, "You’re being improper again!"

Zhang Jingdong laughed heartily, "Now this is me being truly proper, okay? Didn’t you just agree that one session could offset 50,000 dollars for me?"

Yan Ning rolled her eyes at him, "Then tell me how much funding you need first? 30 million? 50 million? Or 100 million?"

Zhang Jingdong was thoroughly moved, "Mr. Yan, you would really lend me 100 million?"

Yan Ning pursed her lips, "...well, since you’re my boyfriend, and... it’s just a loan, not a gift, don’t overthink it!"

Zhang Jingdong felt heartfelt, "Nowadays, mentioning borrowing money would ruin even brotherhoods, yet you’re willing to lend me 100 million voluntarily, tsk tsk, I owe you big time!"

"But I don’t need to go that far for now, while 50 million US Dollars isn’t a small number, your man here can still come up with it!"

"But..."

Zhang Jingdong noticed the worry in Yan Ning’s eyes and continued, "Mr. Yan, you actually haven’t fully understood your man yet."

"Although I’ve ventured into many industries at the same time, which seems a bit aggressive, deep down, I’m actually a very conservative person."

"In simple terms, I always do business with the money I have. I won’t imitate those so-called smart people who borrow from banks or scam investors to run their businesses or investments."

"The reason I’m willing to invest 50 million US Dollars at once this time is that I made a lot in the stock market recently. Although 50 million US Dollars isn’t small, it’s really not that much for me now, it’s not even a quarter."

"Stock market?"

Yan Ning looked surprised, "You can also trade stocks?"

Zhang Jingdong pretended to be mysterious, "It’s not that I can trade stocks, I’m very proficient at it!"

"To be honest, I’ve bought a total of 5 stocks so far, only 1 lost money, but the other 4 were hugely profitable!"

Yan Ning was a bit skeptical, "What’s your logic for choosing a stock?"

Zhang Jingdong suddenly had a thought, "I want to draw the prize!"

"Host has accumulated 180 goodwill points from the target character, meeting the lottery conditions, you can draw the prize!"

"Would the host like to start the draw?"

"Yes."

"Drawing starts..." 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"Prize one: Hayek’s economic skills."

"Prize two: Warren Buffett’s economic skills."

"Prize three: Nash’s economic skills."

"I choose prize two!"

"Prize successfully redeemed, host has five more draw opportunities, would you like to continue?"

"No."

Then Zhang Jingdong said, "Buffett would consider a stock from three aspects; I’m even more conservative than him, I only consider one fundamental principle, which is that a stock is part of a company’s ownership."
