As a villain who transmigrated, all I want is to survive.

Guo, the leader, was naturally happy to be involved, the more companies that participated, the better.

After all, this project is really expensive and there are no returns in the short term.

He waved with a smile: "Platinum Company, right?"

“Yes, that’s right. What do you think of my investment in this project, Leader Guo?” Bai Wanru smiled slightly, her demeanor gentle and poised.

Su Xueyi looked at Bai Wanru and unconsciously clenched her handbag.

"Of course it's great! Your dedication to the development of Shanghai is the best!" Leader Guo beamed from ear to ear.

"He Xiangyu, even a company that has only been established for a few years can contribute to the city's development. Surely your He family can't just turn a blind eye to this."

He paused for a moment, his tone slightly sarcastic: "Besides, you yourselves promised that as long as the Mu family invests, you will invest money. The He family's company is so big, they wouldn't go back on their word, would they?"

Before He Xiangyu could reply, Shi Yan pointed at Bai Wanru.

"I know her! Isn't she Mu Qingfeng's ex-girlfriend?! Well, you've all conspired together, haven't you!" Shi Yan's face twisted into a ferocious grin.

Mu Qingfeng was furious when he heard this. He had finally managed to coax this young lady to stop targeting him a while ago.

Isn't Shi Yan bringing up the very thing he shouldn't be talking about?

“Brother Shi Yan, she is indeed my ex-girlfriend, but that was years ago. Now we all have our own paths to follow, and you don’t need to drag her into this. She is an independent woman, not just my ex-girlfriend,” Mu Qingfeng said righteously.

Hearing this, Bai Wanru actually felt quite happy.

Especially the last sentence, it really touched her heart.

In the past, no matter where she was, she was always referred to as "Mu Qingfeng's girlfriend".

In Mu Qingfeng's circle, no one cares what her name is or what her achievements are.

Bai Wanru curled the corners of her lips and said, "You're right, I am indeed his ex-girlfriend, but everyone in the industry knows that my breakup with her was very unpleasant."

She looked at Shi Yan and said calmly, "Aren't you insulting me by saying that I colluded with her?"

"Besides, investing in the Huaihai Road construction project has nothing to do with me and Mu Qingfeng being exes. Shi Yan, you don't need to change the subject." Bai Wanru looked at Shi Yan calmly.

Leader Guo immediately realized what was happening and coldly reprimanded Shi Yan.

"Yes, that's right. Don't change the subject. Just tell me whether you're going to vote or not," Boss Guo slapped the table.

He Xiangyu gritted his teeth, and suddenly a brilliant idea struck him.

"Leader Guo, Mu Qingfeng only talks about investing in the project, but doesn't say how much money. Everyone knows that this project cannot be completed with just a few hundred million."

Shi Yan understood He Xiangyu's point and immediately replied, "That's right. If the Mu family only invests two or three hundred million, it's simply not enough. Are we, the other companies, supposed to make up the rest?"

Mu Qingfeng coughed lightly: "Everyone, since I dare to say I'm investing in this project, I'm not just talking for fun, throwing hundreds of millions into the water. If I threw hundreds of millions in, I wouldn't even hear a sound."

Lu Minghai sneered and pointed at those people.

"You all look down on me, Brother Mu. Do you think you can squeeze into the six major families?" Lu Minghai looked at He Xiangyu and Shi Yan with disdain.

Shi Yan stood up in anger, but He Xiangyu, who was standing next to him, held him down.

Su Xueyi said, "Our Su family will first state that we are willing to contribute one-tenth of the funds invested by the Mu family."

“Our Su family ranks last among the six major families. If your He family and Shi family want to surpass the Su family, then the amount of investment should at least exceed ours, right?” Su Xueyi raised an eyebrow at the two of them.

"Of course, I don't mean that just because your investment exceeds that of the Su family, you can join the six major families." After saying this, Su Xueyi calmly picked up the water beside her and took a sip.

He Xiangyu looked coldly at Su Xueyi, thinking to himself, "What is this damned woman pretending for?"

"Su Xueyi, can you make decisions based on your own words? Will your old man in the Su family agree to your decision?" He Xiangyu sneered.

Doesn't he know it yet?

Old man Su was a conservative.

Although he maintained his position at the bottom of the six major families, he was just someone with little ability.

Moreover, everyone in the circle knows that the head of the Su family is using his daughter as a tool for political marriage.

If it weren't for Su Xueyi's outstanding business acumen, they would have forced her to get married long ago.

Moreover, it's uncertain whether the Huaihai Road project will even succeed; the old man of the Su family certainly wouldn't agree to invest so much money in it.

He Xiangyu thought that by saying this, he could hit Su Xueyi's sore spot.

But Su Xueyi is a woman who has fought her way out of the many members of the Su family, so how could she possibly break down because of just a few words?

She smiled slightly and said, "Like Lu Minghai, since I am here, my decision represents the Su family's decision."

Su Xueyi had made up her mind. Although she was not optimistic about the project, she would support Mu Qingfeng if he wanted to do it.

She knew that Mu Qingfeng was not the type of person to do business at a loss.

Moreover, the two companies currently have collaborative projects, so of course they should support their partner.

If the Mu family steps in to support them now, the benefits they will bring to the Su family in the future will far exceed the money invested.

Mu Qingfeng was also shocked.

This Su Xueyi is really crazy.

Su Xueyi used to despise his reckless behavior the most, but now she actually supports him so much.

He Xiangyu was speechless after being cornered by Su Xueyi. He could only look at Mu Qingfeng and ask, "Mu Qingfeng, how much did your Mu family invest?"

Mu Qingfeng snapped out of his reverie and asked with a smile, "So how much are you planning to bet?"

He Xiangyu gritted his teeth, "One-tenth!"

Mu Qingfeng clapped his hands: "Mr. He, you're so domineering! Since that's the case, our Mu family plans to invest 30 billion, then your He family will invest 3 billion?"

Su Xueyi, Lu Minghai, and the others standing to the side were trying not to laugh.

Three billion? How could a top-tier family possibly come up with that much money all at once?

Although the Su family is the smallest of the six major families, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse.

He Xiangyu jumped to his feet and exclaimed, "Three hundred billion? Are you crazy? You don't need that much money to build a road!"

Shi Yan stood to the side trembling. Luckily, he hadn't said a word, otherwise He Xiangyu's fate would have been his fate as well.

Mu Qingfeng extended his index finger and waved it from side to side.

“You’re wrong. I’m investing 30 billion yuan not just for road construction, but also for the commercial development of the old city area connected by Huaihai Road.”

Lu Minghai chimed in from the side, "What's there to hesitate about with 3 billion? Our Lu family will give us 10 billion!"

Jiang Yuze clicked his tongue and muttered under his breath that these two were really ruthless.

He raised his hand and said, "Our Jiang family is not as good as yours, so let's just invest a little 5 billion."

In addition, the Zhao and Wu families stated that, like the Su family, they would invest 3 billion yuan.

He Xiangyu's face turned ashen, and he sat down with a thud, his mouth trembling.
