Chapter 337 First Investment "Didn't you bring an umbrella?" Duan Yunzhou asked. Jiang Yuan: "Yes, I forgot to keep an umbrella in the car." "Wait for me." Duan Yunzhou turned and left. Jiang Yuan's phone vibrated again; this time it was Zhang Dan asking if she was in the parking lot. Just as she was about to reply, Duan Yunzhou returned with a folding umbrella. "This is for you." "Thank you, then I won't be polite." Jiang Yuan took the umbrella, opened the car door, and got out. Duan Yunzhou shielded her from the rain, and seeing that she had already opened the umbrella, he took a step back. "Then I'll go first." Seeing him turn to leave, Jiang Yuan quickly said, "I'll return the umbrella to you next time." Duan Yunzhou paused, turned back to look at her, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. "Okay, I'll wait for you." There were a few puddles on the road, and Jiang Yuan walked carefully, afraid of splashing her newly bought white pants. She walked to the entrance of the Western restaurant and happened to bump into Zhang Dan, who was carrying two umbrellas. Zhang Dan didn't notice her, so Jiang Yuan called out, "Manager Zhang." Zhang Dan looked up at the sound of her voice and smiled, "Miss Jiang, I was just about to look for you." "I ran into a friend who lent me an umbrella," Jiang Yuan explained. The two entered the restaurant together. After they were seated, Zhang Dan handed her the menu. "I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I ordered a few things first. Is there anything else you'd like to add?" She then called a waiter to serve the food. Jiang Yuan glanced at the dishes Zhang Dan had ordered; there were at least eight or ten. She wasn't picky, so she put the menu down and smiled, "No need to add anything else, Manager Zhang's orders are exactly what I like." "Really?" Zhang Dan smiled happily. "That's good, what a coincidence." The waiter brought the appetizers, and Jiang Yuan tasted a few bites, smiling, "This place is quite good." "A friend recommended it," Zhang Dan said with a gentle smile. "I'm glad you like it." She looked at Jiang Yuan, growing more and more fond of her. “Miss Jiang,” Zhang Dan suddenly said seriously, gripping her glass with both hands, “thank you very much. I’ll toast you with tea instead of wine.” Jiang Yuan raised her glass and clinked it with hers, taking a few sips of sparkling water before asking, “Is everything settled?” “They’ve been taken to the police station,” Zhang Dan replied. Jiang Yuan nodded. “That’s good. You’re more decisive than I expected.” “At first, I hesitated…” Zhang Dan sighed softly, “but reality slapped me hard. I had to be decisive; being soft-hearted would be cruel to myself.” Jiang Yuan smiled. “This toast is for you. May you break free from this leech.” “Thank you,” Zhang Dan said gratefully. “Thanks to Miss Jiang, otherwise I would be a wandering ghost now.” Jiang Yuan smiled, not at all modest. Zhang Dan’s fate had indeed changed because of her. “Miss Jiang, this is a small token of my appreciation,” Zhang Dan said, handing her a check for 500,000 yuan. Jiang Yuan glanced at it and said softly, "Too much." "Not at all," Zhang Dan said solemnly. "I still think 500,000 is too little, but my circumstances are limited, and this is all I can offer." She had spent a lot of her savings on Zhang Ting's family. Jiang Yuan wanted to say something more, but Zhang Dan said very seriously, "Miss Jiang, please accept it. 500,000 to buy my life, I think it's worth it." Jiang Yuan had visited her housekeeping company the day before yesterday; it wasn't large, and earning 500,000 wasn't easy. Just then, the system notification sounded in her mind. [System 009: Congratulations, Miss Jiang, for completing the hidden mission: Rescue; Reward: 100 points, 1 million cash.] Jiang Yuan had already received the system reward and was even less inclined to accept Zhang Dan's money. She pondered for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll invest this 500,000 in your housekeeping company." "Invest in my company?" Zhang Dan asked in surprise. “Yes.” Jiang Yuan nodded. “If there’s a profit, you can give me a monthly or quarterly dividend.” Zhang Dan guessed that Jiang Yuan probably didn’t want to accept the money, since whether there was a profit or not was ultimately up to her. She increasingly felt that comparing herself to others was a recipe for misery. Jiang Yuan had refused the 500,000 yuan offered to her, while Zhang Ting was trying to ruin her for money. Looking at the girl’s clean and delicate face, Zhang Dan made an important decision in her heart. She took a deep breath: “Okay, when I get back I’ll summarize the company’s current operating situation and send it to you, and then have someone draft an equity distribution agreement.” Jiang Yuan hadn’t expected her to be so serious, and after a moment of hesitation, she nodded: “That’s fine too.” Come to think of it, this seemed to be her first investment. After dinner, Jiang Yuan ordered a few desserts to take home. It was exactly 8:30 pm when she returned to the East Coast Villa, and Yun Jing TV was already broadcasting the family comedy that Deng Rui liked. The cats and dogs seemed to enjoy watching it too, sitting on the carpet in the living room. Deng Rui sat on a single sofa, a sheet mask on her cheek, while Jiang Dashan massaged her shoulders from behind. Jiang Die was making crafts with water bottles and popsicle sticks with Zhan Zhan and Momo. "I'm back," Jiang Yuan said, placing a dessert gift bag on the coffee table. "I brought you some small cakes. Can you eat them now? If not, we'll have to freeze them." "Yes, we can eat them," Jiang Dashan replied immediately. "Which one is mine?" Jiang Yuan bent down and took a strawberry mille-feuille cake from the bag. "Is strawberry okay?" "Yes," Jiang Dashan said with a smile. "Strawberry is my favorite." After saying that, he looked down at his wife. "Rui, I'll stop and eat a small cake first, then I'll continue massaging you." "Go ahead," Deng Rui said, removing the mask. "Which one is mine?" "Can you have the blueberry one?" Jiang Yuan asked. Blueberry, who was intently watching TV, looked over suspiciously. "What? Eat me?" "No." Jiang Yuan chuckled. "There's a fruit called blueberry, and this cake is made with that fruit. Blueberry flavor refers to the cake's taste." Blueberry breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that you're not eating me." Jiang Yuan gave everyone small cakes, keeping one chocolate-flavored one for herself. Although she had already eaten it once at a Western restaurant, she wanted to share it with her family. After finishing the small cake, Jiang Yuan stretched. "I'm going upstairs to take a shower. I'll be live-streaming in a bit, so I won't be coming down." Today, she wanted to ask in the live-stream if anyone wanted to adopt a cat. After showering and drying her hair, Jiang Yuan sat down in front of the screen. It was almost ten o'clock, and many viewers entered the live-stream room as soon as she started broadcasting. [Wow, you're broadcasting today~~~ Happy~] [Keep this broadcast frequency! Of course, it would be even better if you broadcasted every day, hehehe!] [Is the streamer without makeup?] "So beautiful!" Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Actually, I came to the live stream today with KPIs in mind." [What? You also have KPIs to meet???] [Yuan Yuan, aren't you a solo streamer? Did you sign with a guild???] [Ahhh, if I had known you were going to sign with a guild, I would have signed with us!] Thanks to [I thought you'd panic without me 200 book coins] for the support, mwah~ Thanks to [Dark Night Chant] for the monthly ticket support, love you~
