Maximize Interest, My Money Grows Infinitely-Chapter 706 - 385: Clinking Bracelet (Part 2)

Chen Cheng also said, "Mr. Jin, Aunt Cui, don’t worry, I will take good care of Wan Ning."

Jin Baogen nodded, "Tell me about yourself." He looked at Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng put down his chopsticks and reported the progress of recent times to Jin Baogen.

After listening to Chen Cheng’s report, Jin Baogen stroked his beard with satisfaction, "Chen Cheng, you’ve done very well, even better than I expected."

"It’s only been just over two months, and you’ve accomplished so many things. Truly remarkable!"

He raised his wine glass, looking earnestly at Chen Cheng, "The establishment of the industry fund is of great significance for the development of the new energy sector. You were able to seize this opportunity, integrate resources, and promote cooperation, which shows your unique vision and great courage."

Jin Baogen took a sip of wine and continued, "The name Joint Innovation is well chosen, symbolizing win-win cooperation and reflecting your open-mindedness.

The site selection of Huairou Science City also shows great foresight. With its rich research atmosphere and abundance of talent, I’m sure that under your leadership, Joint Innovation will become a leading enterprise in the new energy field."

He turned to Meng Wanning and said earnestly, "Xiao Ning, you are truly fortunate to have found such a capable man. Chen Cheng is not only successful in his career but also wholeheartedly devoted to you; you must cherish him well."

Meng Wanning smiled happily at Jin Baogen’s praise, leaned on Chen Cheng’s shoulder, and said softly, "I know, Mr. Jin."

Chen Cheng also held Meng Wanning’s hand tightly and said to Jin Baogen, "Mr. Jin, thank you for your praise. I will continue to work hard and will not disappoint you and Aunt Cui."

Jin Baogen nodded again and said, "Dili Private Equity is about to open, which is also a big deal. You’ve accomplished what I was unable to."

He joked self-deprecatingly, "It’s also a way to put the business properly on the table."

Chen Cheng raised his glass, "This couldn’t have happened without your guidance."

"Hahaha... you kid!"

The two clinked glasses, and Jin Baogen’s gaze fell on Meng Wanning’s wrist, "Oh, that bracelet looks nice."

"It’s a gift from Chen Cheng." Meng Wanning smiled blissfully.

Cui Xiaoling, hearing what Meng Wanning said, also turned her gaze towards her wrist.

The green bracelet glowed gently under the light, complementing Meng Wanning’s fair skin, "This bracelet has a nice luster!"

"Looks like it’s of the glassy type," Jin Baogen glanced from a distance, "You kid really knows how to spend money."

"My little trick is nothing in front of you," Chen Cheng smiled.

Jin Baogen laughed heartily, "Look, Mr. Chen is pointing me out here."

He called towards the door, "Xiao Li, bring that box from my study."

After a while, a young man came in with an exquisite wooden box and respectfully handed it to Jin Baogen.

Jin Baogen took the box, opened it, and inside was a pure white mutton fat jade bracelet, warm and delicate, with a soft luster, clearly a top-quality piece.

"I have one here too, and I’ve always wanted to give it to the right person." Jin Baogen pushed the box towards Meng Wanning, "Come, Xiao Ning, try it on."

Meng Wanning was a bit surprised as she looked at the mutton fat jade bracelet, "Mr. Jin, this... this is too valuable, I can’t accept it..."

"Back in the day, I also gave Xiao Er an imperial green one," Jin Baogen took a sip of his wine, "You should have one too."

Hearing this, Meng Wanning understood.

In the eyes of the older generation, her position with Chen Cheng is equivalent to that of Xiao Meier.

"Take it, it’s Mr. Jin’s kind gesture," Chen Cheng said with a smile.

Meng Wanning said awkwardly, "But I already have one. This is a gift from you, and I don’t want to take it off."

"Then just wear both."

Meng Wanning smiled shyly, "One on each hand? People will laugh at me."

"Hey, wearing them on one hand, they’ll be the only ding-dong bracelets in the world." Chen Cheng took out the jade bracelet and slid it under the jade bracelet.

He gently shook Meng Wanning’s hand, and the two bracelets collided, making a crisp ding-dong sound.

Meng Wanning looked at the two bracelets on her wrist, one green and one white, filled with mixed emotions.

The jade bracelet represents Chen Cheng’s love, while the mutton fat jade bracelet symbolizes Jin Baogen’s recognition and blessing.

"Really beautiful..."

Meng Wan Ning’s eyes began to moisten, knowing that these two bracelets are not just simple accessories but are weighted with love, one from her lover and the other from her elders.

"Thank you, Mr. Jin, thank you." Meng Wanning said chokingly.

Jin Baogen looked at Meng Wanning’s happy appearance and smiled with satisfaction.

"Silly child, there’s no need to be so formal with us."

He turned his head to Chen Cheng and said, "Mr. Chen, Xiao Ning has had a tough time, and now the hard times have finally passed."

"You should treat her well in the future. If I learn that you bully her, I won’t let you off lightly."

Cui Xiaoling also smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, you have to help me take good care of Xiao Ning."

Chen Cheng held Meng Wanning’s hand tightly and solemnly said, "Mr. Jin, Aunt Cui, rest assured, I will take good care of Wan Wan, love her and cherish her all my life, without letting her suffer any grievances."

"That’s the spirit~" Jin Baogen raised his glass, "Come, let’s have a toast."

The four clinked glasses, smiles on everyone’s faces.

"As for the small villa, it’s already vacated." Jin Baogen continued, "I’ll leave it to you to decide how to use it."

He looked at Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng understood the significance of the small villa, which symbolized what Jin Baogen had built up over the years and his former connections.

Now, gifting it represents total trust and commitment.

He solemnly put down his glass, looked at Jin Baogen, and said earnestly, "Mr. Jin, I understand what you mean."

"Even though you are no longer there, I will take over your responsibilities and maintain those networks."

Chen Cheng continued, "The interpersonal relationships will not disperse because of your retreat. In the future, whether in business exchanges or everyday support, I won’t let you down. I will make those who once stood by your side feel our sincerity and enthusiasm, making the network even more stable and vibrant.

Jin Baogen nodded slightly, his eyes full of reassurance: "Great, with your words, I am relieved. This small villa holds too many stories and has witnessed many ups and downs. Now that I’m handing it over to you, I hope you can continue to let it play its role."

Meng Wanning listened to their conversation, her admiration for Chen Cheng growing.

She knew deeply that Chen Cheng was taking on more than just a villa, but a heavy trust and responsibility.

She held Chen Cheng’s hand, quietly giving her support.

Cui Xiaoling looked at Meng Wanning with a smile and teased, "Xiao Ning, you’ve truly found a man with responsibility. In the future, just live well with Chen Cheng, and for any issues, we will have your back."

Meng Wanning blushed slightly and smiled with a nod, "Master, I know. With you and Mr. Jin, I feel very lucky."

"Why don’t you two stay tonight?" Cui Xiaoling also made her plea prevail for her apprentice, "I’ll have the room prepared."

Meng Wanning naturally wished to stay with Chen Cheng, but considering they were in Beijing, there were people waiting for him at his courtyard.

"Master, why don’t we..."

Chen Cheng understood Cui Xiaoling’s intention, he pressed Meng Wanning’s hand, "Alright, Wan Wan and I will stay here so she can have more chat time with you."

Meng Wanning beamed hearing Chen Cheng’s words.

But she still had some concerns, whispering in Chen Cheng’s ear, "What about at Sister’s place..."

"Don’t worry, I told her I’m discussing matters with Mr. Jin tonight, so it’s fine," Chen Cheng replied.

"Hmm!" Meng Wanning smiled even more happily.

Jin Baogen smiled, saying, "Look at that, youth is great! You even have secrets to share. When was the last time you whispered to me?"

"How improper! There are young ones present!" Cui Xiaoling scolded Jin Baogen with a glance.

"Hahaha~"

Jin Baogen raised his glass, "Come, Mr. Chen, accompany me for a few more drinks tonight! If you don’t, my glass will collect cobwebs!"

Chen Cheng responded, "Alright, Mr. Jin. Tonight, we won’t go home until we’re drunk!"
