Reborn back to the day I descended the mountain, Miss Ji, I will take responsibility for you!

Ji Ruoyu looked at Qin Zihao in surprise; he hadn't expected this.

It turned out that Qin Zihao was the one who secretly bought the shares.

Moreover, according to Qin Zihao's plan, he would invest 3 billion yuan upon arrival.

However, Ji Ruoyu knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

With such investment, Qin Zihao must have something in mind.

Ji Ruoyun looked at the surprised expressions of everyone in the room, but a smug smile appeared on her face.

Just then, a sudden voice rang out.

"Ruoyun, why didn't you tell me about this sooner? I could have made preparations."

Ye Chen was speechless as he looked at Ji Xiaoren's exaggerated acting skills and the corners of his mouth that he could barely suppress.

This suggests that it was pre-arranged, and the crisis atmosphere created earlier was probably all for this moment.

Ji Ruoyu pointed to the two old men behind Qin Zihao and said, "Those are my second grandfather and third grandfather."

Upon seeing this lineup, Ye Chen immediately understood that Qin Zihao had likely come prepared.

Qin Zihao walked to the conference table, and a bodyguard placed a chair behind him.

Qin Zihao's seat was opposite the Ji family's great-grandmother, while Ji Wenyi and Ji Wenli stood behind him.

From the current situation, there is suddenly a feeling of a power struggle.

Ji Ruoyun said smugly, "Dad, it's not that I didn't want to tell you, it's just that I only found out myself."

However, Ji Ruoyun's acting was equally exaggerated, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't notice that he had prepared in advance.

However, once they realized what was happening, the expressions on the faces of the shareholders in the room turned rather grim.

After all, the Qin family's entry into the fray is not a good thing for them, as it would greatly weaken their influence.

Grandma Ji frowned as she looked at Ji Wenyi and Ji Wenli behind Qin Zihao.

She spoke in a deep voice, "I remember you and my husband had an agreement that if you wanted to sell your shares..."

"You must first consult our company's opinion. Only if we are unwilling to acquire you can you resell it to someone else."

Standing on the left, Ji Wenyi smiled slightly and said, "That's right, but we've already called Ji Xiaoren's nephew."

"He said that the company doesn't have the money to buy back shares right now, so we sold them to Young Master Qin. It's reasonable and justified."

Upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family looked at Ji Xiaoren, her eyes filled with disappointment.

He never expected that Ji Xiaoren would be so short-sighted as to collude with outsiders to embezzle the company's profits.

Just then, Ji Wenli spoke up: "Sister, why are you so persistent?"

"The Qin family is rich and powerful, so there's nothing wrong with them taking over the company. We can also benefit from their influence."

"Moreover, Young Master Qin's request is very simple: just hand over the original Ji's Whitening Cream."

"Then Young Master Qin can not only help us overcome the current difficulties."

"It can also help Ji's Beauty Technology go public."

"This was also our late brother's dream, and we are doing this for the good of the Ji family."

The great-grandmother of the Ji family slammed her cane heavily onto the ground with a loud thud.

"What a fine way to say it's for the good of the Ji family! You're digging up the Ji family's roots."

"This is the only thing your eldest brother left me. If I sell it, how will I face him in the afterlife!"

Seeing his mother's anger, Ji Xiaoren quickly stepped forward to persuade her, "Mom, don't be so hasty."

"Let's hear what Young Master Qin has to say. She is now Ruoyun's fiancé and can be considered half a member of the Ji family."

"It's a good thing that he's willing to step in at this time to help our Ji family overcome this difficulty."

Upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family was so angry that her hands trembled.

He wished he could smash Ji Xiaoren's head with his cane and beat this unfilial son to death.

Qin Zihao, however, spoke calmly: "Great-Grandmother Ji, the Ji family is currently facing both internal and external troubles."

"The company's internal management is loose and chaotic, and it is experiencing a serious shortage of cash flow and a high debt ratio."

"There are all sorts of rumors going around now, which are impacting store sales and causing profit margins to decline."

"Money is essential if you want to get your business back on track."

"Now that I am also a part of the company, I am willing to contribute 3 billion to solve the company's difficulties."

"We can also leverage the influence of my Qin family to help you resolve the impact of negative news, killing two birds with one stone."

"I think I have shown enough sincerity."

As he spoke, Qin Zihao sat there calmly, and the other shareholders were also very interested upon hearing this.

Although Qin Zihao's appearance would weaken their strength, and they might even be kicked out.

However, the immediate benefits are real, and if the company cannot overcome this hurdle, its future is uncertain.

As a result, some directors also spoke up to support Qin Zihao.

"Chairman, the company is indeed in trouble right now, and Qin Shao's help is a timely help for us."

"That's right, Chairman. With the Qin family's name on our side, those forces that covet us will probably have to think twice."

Despite everyone's attempts to persuade her, the great-grandmother of the Ji family remained cold-faced.

Seeing this, Ji Xiaoren couldn't help but speak up, "Mom, the company is facing difficulties both internally and externally. Without a large injection of funds..."

“We don’t even have the money to buy raw materials. I’m afraid we won’t even be able to keep the project with the Zhao family.”

"If we can't deliver the goods on time, the penalties for breach of contract will be more than the Ji family could ever afford."

Upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family finally changed her expression.

Because that's the reality; their company is short of money, and not a small amount.

Although they have now partnered with the Zhao family and secured their project, they still have a long way to go to make this project a success.

It's not something you can just do by talking; it requires sufficient logistical support, reserved funds, and supporting facilities.

All of these aspects require money, and even the most skilled cook cannot make a meal without rice.

Moreover, Ji's Beauty Technology simply lacks the capability to undertake such projects.

After much deliberation, the great-grandmother of the Ji family finally softened and said, "Now that things have come to this, I..."

Ji Xiaoren's face lit up with joy when she saw her mother relent, but Qin Zihao suddenly said, "Great-Grandma, don't make it sound so difficult."

"With such a large sum of money at stake, our Qin family isn't a charity. If we want to invest, we need to pay a price."

Upon hearing this, the face of the Ji family's great-grandmother immediately turned ugly.

Ye Chen did indeed reveal an expression that said, "I knew it."

Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Ji Ruoyu whispered, "What do you think they're up to?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know, but as the saying goes, no one gets up early for nothing, just like Qin Zihao said."

"The Qin family is in business, not charity. If they put up 3 billion, they naturally need a corresponding return."

"Besides, don't you think the timing is perfect? ​​The negative news came out yesterday, and Qin Zihao brought his people here today."

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyu frowned. Indeed, everything was too coincidental.

Judging from the current situation, the Qin family is very likely one of the forces behind it all.

Ji Xiaoren looked at Qin Zihao with a smile and asked, "What are Young Master Qin's conditions?"

Qin Zihao smiled slightly and said, "My condition is very simple. The only thing your Ji family can offer is the formula for Ji's Whitening Cream."

"But I need the original, it has to be the original copy, I don't want a photocopy."

“As long as you hand over the original documents to me, you will not only receive an investment of 3 billion, but also the support of my Qin family.”

Everyone found Qin Zihao's request somewhat strange.

After all, the recipe is something that you can have as long as you have it.

Whether it's the original or not doesn't seem to matter, and this would obviously make it more difficult to obtain.

As expected, upon hearing this, the great-grandmother of the Ji family turned pale and said coldly, "You're dreaming. This item is my old man's heirloom, and no one can take it from me."

Upon seeing this, the board members felt a sudden chill in their hearts, sensing that something terrible was about to happen.

Ji Xiaoren said anxiously, "Mom, without this investment, our Ji family is finished."

"Can you bear to see the company my father built from scratch go down in his hands?"

Grandma Ji remained unmoved, and the surrounding board members also tried to persuade her.

Seeing everyone's appearance, the great-grandmother of the Ji family suddenly became much more hunched over.

I felt like all my energy and spirit had been drained away, and after hesitating for a long time...

Grandma Ji relented once again, saying, "If you want it, I'll give you the original..."

"Wait a minute!"

Just then, a sudden voice rang out, and everyone's eyes turned to it.
