A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.

It was only 20 million. Xu Youyou didn't even ask a question and transferred the money to the company account on the same day.

Xu Youyou didn't ask, but Xie Ran remembered his duty as a subordinate, and he quickly sent a complete plan to Xu Youyou's residence.

Xu Youyou didn't even open it to read, and said casually: "You have been quiet for so long before making this decision. I trust your judgment."

Xie Ran felt warm at heart when he heard this. He had not been trusted by others for too long.

He did not make any drastic reforms in the company for the past half month. He simply promoted a new human resources manager in the human resources department and spent two days talking to everyone in each department.

After the company was stabilized, he went to Gansu Province in person.

Ouyang Ouyang is currently filming a drama in Gansu Province with a group of people. He did not choose to shoot the entire costume drama in Hengdian like other crews, but instead chose to shoot on location.

There, according to the information received by Xu Youyou, Xie Ran and Ouyang Ouyang had a very in-depth conversation and watched the crew's daily filming from close range.

A few days after returning from Gansu Province, Xie Ran came to Xu Youyou to ask for money.

Xu Youyou didn't ask or look, but Xie Ran didn't intend to let his boss turn a blind eye. He said, "I think the short drama industry is on the rise right now. I've selected a lot of short drama scripts these days and plan to start filming ten short dramas in one go."

When Xu Youyou heard this, her eyes widened slightly, but when she thought about it carefully, she realized that there was indeed a period of time in her previous life when the short drama industry was extremely prosperous.

Xie Ran continued, "I've not only looked at domestic productions, I've also looked at foreign productions. My next step is to use the money I earn from making short dramas in China to invest in making short dramas abroad..."

Xu Youyou's eyes widened as she listened, and she kept sighing in her heart: The system really picked up the right person this time!

In terms of short dramas, foreign countries are indeed lagging behind the domestic large-scale versions. Domestic cool novels exported overseas can help those foreigners who have never seen the world to quit drug addiction. If the same script is performed by foreigners, they can make money from foreigners faster than making money in China.

In her previous life, Xu Youyou vaguely heard that there were indeed people who specialized in this and made a lot of money. In this life, she had too many profitable businesses and didn't think about this for a while.

She didn't expect that Xie Ran could make an accurate judgment in the shortest time with just a little information.

Xu Youyou immediately said, "No need to wait, you can do it now. By the way, you said you wanted to make a dedicated short drama app. I agree with this, so go ahead and do it."

Xie Ran was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and said cautiously: "The total investment may be one or two hundred million..."

Xu Youyou waved her hand and said, "I'll just transfer 300 million yuan. We can hire people when necessary and spend whatever money we need. There's no need to be timid."

Xie Ran sat up straight. The more Xu Youyou believed in him, the more he wanted to empty his stomach.

"Is there anything else you need money for? Tell me all at once." Xu Youyou said.

Xie Ran shook his head and stood up to say goodbye.

But before this guest left, a new guest arrived.

Xu Youyou's current home is over 1,000 square meters. Even if she bought six sweeping robots, she still couldn't finish all the housework. She was also tired of the meals delivered by the property manager, so a few days ago she hired six housekeepers at once through an agency.

"Ms. Xu, the gentleman outside the door said his surname was Lu, and he brought an assistant with him. He said he and you are old acquaintances and came to visit you specially."

When Xu Youyou heard what the housekeeper said, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why did Lu Shaoyan come to our house? Is it because of the Gu family's affairs?"

The housekeeping aunt asked, "Do you want to turn him away?"

Xu Youyou shook her head: "No, let him in and call two bodyguards over."

Xu Youyou asked someone to prepare tea again in the small reception room.

Xie Ran left the main gate and happened to see Lu Jingyao and Assistant Liu walking in. He couldn't help but take a second look.

Lu Jingyao didn't expect to see a strange man in Xu Youyou's house. His heart tightened and he glanced at Assistant Liu.

Assistant Liu immediately asked the housekeeper who was leading the way, "Is this gentleman Miss Xu's boyfriend?"

The housekeeper didn't think much about it and said directly: "He is the person in charge of a company under Miss Xu's name."

Assistant Liu immediately came up to Lu Jingyao and said, "He's wearing a suit and holding a briefcase. It looks like he's here on business."

Lu Jingyao nodded, and then, as if he had thought of something, he said, "I didn't ask you to inquire about these things, so you're nosy."

Assistant Liu glanced at his boss but didn't expose his duplicity.

In the small reception room, Xu Youyou saw the two people from afar, her face full of surprise.

Lu Jingyao's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't understand why Xu Youyou was so surprised to see him. Was she unhappy because he asked about her specific address?

As soon as Lu Jingyao put down the gift he had prepared, he immediately explained, "I didn't deliberately ask for your address. Before I left the country, I was planning to buy your house, but the seller refused to sell it to me. Later, I accidentally learned that it was sold to you."

Xu Youyou didn't have high expectations for information leaks in modern society, so she said directly, "I'm not surprised that Mr. Lu has such great connections. But, are you healed?"

Xu Youyou still remembered that Lu Jingyao was almost killed abroad, but she didn't expect that he would be alive and well again so soon.

Lu Jingyao's face turned red and white. He had always been cautious in doing things, and he never expected that he would be plotted against so cruelly when he thought he was infallible.

"I'm almost well now, and I've returned home to recuperate for a long time. I was able to escape safely this time, and I'm very grateful to you."

Lu Jingyao thought it was difficult to say this, but facing Xu Youyou's clear eyes, he couldn't help but say the words of gratitude.

Xu Youyou rarely saw this person being so humble, so she said dryly, "Then you should be more careful when you go abroad in the future."

Assistant Liu, who was beside Lu Jingyao, put down a jewelry box and said softly, "Ms. Xu, our President Lu is very grateful for your life-saving grace. This small gift is not a token of respect."

Xu Youyou hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't accept the gift. Instead, she returned it: "It was just a coincidence that I was able to save your Mr. Lu. Even if the injured person wasn't Mr. Lu, but another Chinese, I would still save him. So there's no need to be so polite."

Lu Jingyao's heart paused. According to his investigation of Xu Youyou, this was a person who valued money extremely. Xu Youyou didn't even accept his money. Could it be because she hated him?

The thought only flashed through his mind before Lu Jingyao suppressed it. In his mind, he was trying to persuade Xu Youyou to accept the gift, but the words he spoke had a different meaning: "Miss Xu, my life, Lu Jingyao's, is barely worth anything. If you're unwilling to accept this gift, do you want something else?"

A question mark slowly appeared above Xu Youyou's head.

"Mr. Lu, I understand you don't want to owe anyone a favor, but is this the right way to treat someone who saved your life by forcing a sale? If you're not truly grateful, please leave."
