Chapter 145: Indignant
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ling Xuewei was a little surprised that Lin Bai could trust her to such an extent. He had 100% complete authority and did not ask about anything.
She had worked with other companies in the past and had met partners who trusted her professional abilities.
However, there was no one else who could do what Lin Bai did.
Ling Xuewei felt that Lin Bai was nothing like the people she had met.
Lin Bai was completely different from the people she had come into contact with in the past.
Ling Xuewei pretended to lower her head to organize the documents, cleverly concealing the emotional fluctuations in her heart.
When she raised her head again, there was only a perfect professional smile on her face.
“Thank you, Mr. Lin, for trusting our company so much and being willing to let us perform.”
“We will do our best to live up to your trust, Mr. Lin,” Ling Xuewei said.
Lin Bai nodded with a smile and said, “Since I have chosen you, of course, I trust your ability. Therefore, President Ling can directly decide everything regarding the sales. There is no need for me to choose. I will look at the final results.”
Lin Bai wanted to see how far Ling Xuewei could go if he gave her complete freedom.
If she could reach, or even exceed, his expectations, then Lin Bai should continue working with Soaring Phoenix Real Estate.
These few days, Lin Bai had carefully considered. He felt that it would be a good choice if he could work with Soaring Phoenix Real Estate for a long time, or if he could simply take a stake in it.
Although the real estate market in recent years was not as crazy as it had been in the past few years, it had been steadily rising. It could be considered an industry that was worth investing in.
Ever since he returned from stone speculating in Yun Province, his assets of more than 20 billion had been lying in Lin Bai’s bank card. He had not made any more investments.
It was not that Lin Bai did not want to, but it was because recently, the Future News app had not released any news related to it.
That was why he didn’t have the chance to invest.
Although everyone regarded Lin Bai as a financial genius, Lin Bai knew in his heart that without the hints from the Future News app, it would be impossible for him to achieve so many godly operations with just his vision and judgment.
Therefore, during those days without hints, Lin Bai would rather put his money aside than invest recklessly.
He had heard too many examples of losing everything in one move.
He did not want to become one of them.
If he kept his money in his card, at least it would not vanish all of a sudden. Moreover, there would be interest to be earned.
However, if he made the wrong investment and bought stocks, then there might be nothing left.
Lin Bai used this reason to restrain himself from using the money easily.
However, as time went on, he couldn’t help but feel an itch in his heart.
Was he really willing to put tens of billions of dollars of money in the bank and eat interest for the rest of his life?
He wasn’t willing.
He had experienced the thrill of making tens of billions in an instant and the feeling of being regarded as a genius by everyone. Who would be willing to eat interest for the rest of their lives?
Therefore, Lin Bai really wanted to do something and make good use of the money.
However, he had never found the right direction, nor had he had the opportunity.
During this period of time, when he was dreaming in the middle of the night, Lin Bai had asked himself countless times.
What if the Future News App did not give him any financial news in the future and he did not have the opportunity to make as much money as before?
What if the entire app suddenly disappeared one day in the future, along with the Divine-Level Human Discernation technique, Divine-Level combat technique, and Divine-Level medical technique that it had rewarded him? What would he do?
Lin Bai had asked himself these questions countless times.
The news app had appeared without any warning or reason.
Therefore, no one could guarantee that it would not disappear as suddenly, without any warning or reason, as when it appeared.
This made Lin Bai very anxious.
He wanted to give himself a sense of security.
Even if the Future News app stopped sending financial-related information from now on…
Even if it really disappeared one day, he could have a stable career and reap long-term profits. He could also rely on his own ability to get better.
Therefore, he felt that he had to have some real business.
Whether it was stocks or virtual currencies, these things were too volatile and the risk was too high.
They could make people rich overnight, or they could make people go bankrupt instantly and never be able to turn over a new leaf.
Moreover, he didn’t have any knowledge in this area, so for him, these things couldn’t be relied on for long.
After thinking about it, Lin Bai felt that with his current capital, ability, and connections, it was the best choice to enter the real estate industry.
Ling Xuewei was also a good partner.
She had vision, ability, and creativity.
If he added his capital, he should be able to have a very good development in the future.
Moreover, during the cooperation process, he could slowly learn all kinds of real-estate-related knowledge.
When he truly had the ability, he could still live well even if he lost his ability to predict the future.
Only then would he not be blessed by fate for nothing.
Lin Bai looked at Ling Xuewei across the desk and suddenly said, “President Ling, May I ask you a personal question?”
Ling Xuewei nodded. “Please speak. What exactly is it that supported you through those painful days, step by step, until today?”
Ling Xuewei did not expect Lin Bai to ask this.
To be honest, she had never thought of this question before because she actually did not have a choice. She was pushed by fate step by step.
When she was a young girl, she could only endure, learn dance, and win awards in order to protect her innocence.
Later on, in order to break free from control and strive for maximum freedom, she could only think of all ways to earn money.
Then, she walked step by step until now.
What kind of power was supporting her? She really hadn’t thought about it.
Ling Xuewei thought for a long time before she gave an answer.
“Maybe it’s because I’m indignant.”
“I’m unwilling to be controlled or become someone else’s plaything. I just don’t think my life should be like that.”
Lin Bai nodded silently.
The words ‘don’t want to’ hit the nail on the head.
In fact, he could have saved his money without taking any risks. He could have lived a carefree life for the rest of his life. He would have lived a much better life than most people.
Yet, he didn’t want to.
He should not be like that in his future life after being blessed by fate.
“I originally wanted to tell you the next step after this project was completed, but it’s okay to tell you in advance now.”
“If the sale of Yunding Villa goes well, let’s work together in the long run. I can take a stake in your company, or if you are willing, I can buy it.”
Lin Bai laid out his next step.
