Chapter 203 A visit Jinling. General's Villa. The sun shines through the green leaves, casting mottled shadows on the flower beds and paths. As Yin Yue walks along, the gravel road is paved with natural irregular shapes and neatly trimmed shrubs and flowers, forming a self-contained landscape. In this green courtyard, the grass and trees are lush, the flowers are beautiful, the water is gurgling, and the leaves are rustling in the breeze. This is really a good place to cultivate your body and mind. In Hexi, where every inch of land is valuable, it is extraordinary to own such a large house. In this courtyard, different seasons, different times, and different weather all have different views, and every detail shows the owner's careful management and loving care. Every scene here was full of admiration, but Yin Yue had no mood to appreciate it. She felt mixed emotions in her heart, because what she was about to step into was a negotiation about the company's interests. "Will Mr. Yin help us this time?" Yin Yue sighed inwardly, looking through the layers of greenery at the quaint and elegant main house in the distance. Although Mr. Yin has retired behind the scenes, his prestige remains and he still plays an important role in the Baili Group. Yin Yue followed the housekeeper to the main house, where an old lady in a long gown and with a kind face had been waiting for a long time. It was Old Yin. She came forward with a smile, and that smile showed the kindness of an elder, but also seemed to contain some indescribable depth of meaning. "Come in, the tea is ready." Old Yin's voice was gentle but powerful, leading them into the house.
The interior of the house is decorated in a simple yet elegant style, and the air is filled with a faint scent of tea. After the host and the guests took their seats, a warm yet solemn atmosphere spread out amidst the pleasantries. Yin Yue picked up the teacup and took a sip. As the aroma of tea wafted around her, her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the youthful time several years ago when she first stepped into the general's villa. "Mr. Yin, I remember the first time I came here was many years ago." Yin Yue smiled, her eyes gleaming with memories. "At that time, I had just taken over Qianqiu Group and was full of curiosity and awe for everything in the business world. It was also here, talking with you, that I first deeply realized my responsibility and commitment." Upon hearing this, Old Yin's eyes softened, as if he was also brought back to the past by Yin Yue's words. "Yes, you were just a little girl back then, but in the blink of an eye, you have grown into a strong woman who can stand on your own." She said with emotion, her words full of recognition and appreciation for Yin Yue's growth. "During that visit, our two companies had a pleasant cooperation. Mr. Yin also gave me a lot of valuable advice and encouragement, which benefited me a lot." Yin Yue continued, her tone full of gratitude, "especially your insights on family business inheritance and innovation, which I still remember in my heart." Old Yin smiled slightly and waved his hand, indicating that Yin Yue didn't need to be so polite. "Zixuan, you are already smart, I just gave you some pointers. What really made you grow is your own hard work and persistence." As the topic deepened, the atmosphere between the two became more relaxed and natural. Yin Yue took the opportunity to cleverly change the topic and draw attention back to the purpose of this visit. "Mr. Yin, in fact, the reason I came here today, besides wanting to reminisce with you, is that I also have something important to discuss with you." Upon hearing this, Mr. Yin immediately stopped smiling and said seriously, "Oh? What makes you so serious? Just tell me." Yin Yue nodded and told him the current predicament of Qianqiu Group and her own thoughts. She spoke sincerely, showing her calmness and courage as the helmsman. Mr. Yin listened quietly, sometimes nodding in agreement, sometimes frowning and falling into deep thought. Finally, she slowly said, "Zixuan, I have always admired your determination and courage. I will do my best to help with Qianqiu Group's affairs. But I also hope that you can understand that Baili Group is not mine alone or for my family. We must consider the interests of other shareholders. You just said that you want us to provide 1 billion, which is not a small amount." "I know, so I came to visit you today..." Yin Yue said a little embarrassedly. Elder Yin paused and said, "Zixuan, maybe you don't know it now, but your grandmother and I have a deep friendship and have been best friends since childhood!" After hearing what Elder Yin said, Yin Yue was shocked. She looked up at Elder Yin in surprise, and said with a hint of disbelief, "You know my grandmother?" Her heart was full of doubts and curiosity. She knew very little about her grandmother's past, and this seemingly ordinary but extraordinary old man in front of her actually claimed to have a deep friendship with her grandmother. Elder Yin smiled and took out a small and delicate object from his bosom. It was a green emerald ring, with a warm color and a sheen of years. She gently put the ring on her finger, then stretched out her hand and said to Yin Yue, "This ring was given to me by your grandmother. It is said to be a pair of heirlooms. Your grandmother gave it to me when I went overseas. Your grandmother must have worn it before, do you have any impression?"
Zixuan's eyes were deeply attracted by the emerald ring. She began to carefully look at the patterns and luster on the ring. "My grandmother passed away when I was thirteen, but she did have a green ring, which she only wore on her birthday." Yin Yue was surprised, "Hey, it's exactly the same!" Seeing this, Elder Yin's eyes flashed with tenderness. She took off the ring and said slowly, "Zixuan, your grandmother was a very remarkable woman. She not only had outstanding talent and beauty, but also had a kind and tenacious heart. This ring was given to me by her as a testimony of our friendship. Now, I want to return it to you as a remembrance of your grandmother and as a continuation of the friendship between our two families." "This..." Yin Yue was shocked when she saw the ring that Old Yin handed to her. "Well, Zixuan, I have always treated you as my own granddaughter. Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. You are not young anymore, but you are still unmarried! My youngest grandson is also of marriageable age, and he looks and has good abilities. I saw that he is quite fond of you, so I thought it would be a good thing if we could facilitate this marriage." Teacher Yin said to Yin Yue, "You are actually very familiar with him, he is Leehom Ho!" "He Lihong is your grandson?" Zi Xuan was shocked again. He Lihong was the general manager of the joint venture company of Qianqiu and Baili, and was indeed one of her suitors. "Yes, Leehom has been a smart and capable child since he was young, and I had high hopes for him. After he returned from studying abroad and joined the company, he did not disappoint me, and his performance has been good in recent years." Teacher Yin smiled, his eyes full of pride. "Moreover, Leehom has always been very sensible and considerate to others. He once confided in me that he doesn't just admire you, but really likes you. So I was thinking, can I, as your grandmother, help you guys out and see if you guys have the same idea? Yin Yue was stunned when she heard this. Elder Yin looked at Yin Yue with burning eyes and continued: "If our two families become one through marriage, let alone 10 billion, even 5 billion or 10 billion won't be a problem!"
