"You go out first," Yin Mo said to Shen Jiayin.
Shen Jiayin nodded and got up to leave.
When she passed by Shi Sheng, she paused. "Miss Sheng, do you want to go out for a walk with me?"
Shi Sheng propped up his chin with one hand, looking bored. "I don't want to go."
Shen Jiayin's eyes darkened as she looked at Yu Jiu.
What these two men wanted to talk about was definitely business. Would he let her stay here?
Yu Jiu didn't show any signs of anger and merely stroked Shi Sheng's head. "Are you tired? We'll finish the discussion soon. "
Yu Jiu's attitude made it clear that she didn't need to go out.
Shen Jiayin turned back to glance at Yin Mo. He was looking at Shi Sheng, seemingly curious.
Shen Jiayin gritted her teeth and left the room without another word.
Once she left, Yu Jiu cut to the chase. "Mr. Yin, you seized my goods and came to negotiate with me. You must have a request, right?"
Yin Mo changed his posture and looked even more casual. "I'm not asking for anything. I just want to make a deal."
"A deal?" Yu Jiu snorted. "What kind of deal is worth Mr. Yin risking his life to come all the way overseas to seize my goods? You must have expended a lot of effort, right?"
Yin Mo's interlocked fingers tightened.
His influence was all within the country, so he had indeed expended a lot of effort to get this done.
The two men spoke in a bureaucratic manner and couldn't get to the point.
Seeing Shi Sheng's expression improve, Yu Jiu figured that she didn't like to waste time. "Mr. Yin, what kind of deal do you want to make? Just say it."
Yin Mo had been waiting for Yu Jiu to say that. "I want the necklace called 'Echo' that Mr. Yu is wearing."
"You're here to rob me for a necklace?" Yu Jiu's smile was somewhat mocking.
"That necklace is handmade and unique. There's only one of its kind in the world. Mr. Yu should understand its collectible value."
"Mm. I'll consider it. "
"Then I'll wait for your good news."
Yu Jiu's smile didn't reach his eyes, looking extremely perfunctory. "Take care."
Yin Mo glanced at Shi Sheng, who returned a provocative look in Shi Sheng's eyes.
"According to the laws of novels, there's something wrong with that necklace," Shi Sheng said faintly after Yin Mo left.
"The law of novels? Xiaoxia-meimei, your words are quite interesting. "Yu Jiu pinched Shi Sheng's cheeks." Let's go, my empress. It's time to return to the palace and sleep. "
Yu Jiu was intentionally avoiding the topic.
Shi Sheng gave him a meaningful look.
Yu Jiu hugged her and rubbed against her. "You don't have to worry about these things. I'll take care of them."
"Oh, okay. Then don't ask me about it in the future. "Shi Sheng nodded.
"As long as you're fine, I'll do as you say." Yu Jiu said these words without hesitation.
Shi Sheng was very pleased, but he didn't show it on his face. He got up and walked out.
When the car left the winery, Shi Sheng saw Shen Jiayin and Yin Mo standing in front of the car. The two of them were talking about something and the atmosphere seemed a little strange.
…
This incident was like an interlude. Shi Sheng began to take over the Sheng family's business.
But she hadn't expected that the first person to talk to her would be Yu Xingyun.
The two of them found a coffee shop. Yu Xingyun's brows were furrowed with worry.
"Little Xia, are you really going to inherit Glory World Corporation?"
Shi Sheng looked at Yu Xingyun in confusion. "Uncle Yu, if you have something to say, just say it."
"You can inherit most of Glory World Corporation's shares, but the government has been buying them over the past few years. Now, other than the portion you can inherit, the rest of the shares are in the government's hands. Do you understand what I mean?"
Seeing that Shi Sheng wasn't speaking, Yu Xingyun continued, "Your Uncle Gu and I only want you to inherit the movable assets. This money is enough for you to spend for the rest of your life. And with Yu Jiu around, you won't suffer."
Shi Sheng stared straight at Yu Xingyun. "Uncle Yu, how did my parents die?"
Yu Xingyun's heart skipped a beat. "Little Xia …"
Yu Xingyun practically ran away. He and Gu Yan had planned to hide this from her for the rest of their lives. But when did she suspect it?
Yu Xingyun and Gu Yan had a secret meeting. Gu Yan had gone home to persuade Shi Sheng to let her inherit the movable assets.
In the original plot, the original owner of Sheng Jiayin's body had only inherited the movable assets. It was indeed a lot of money, enough for her to squander without worry for the rest of her life.
But if she didn't inherit the company, how was she going to investigate the cause of her parents' death?
Shi Sheng had asked Gu Yan the same question. Compared to Yu Xingyun's escape, Gu Yan was much calmer.
He would only sigh and tell her not to think too much.
Yu Jiu realized that his little green plum was getting busier and busier, to the point where he had to make an appointment to catch her.
When he finally managed to catch her, she was still busy looking through documents.
Yu Jiu hugged her from behind, his gaze sweeping over the documents in her hands. He blew hot air into her ear. "Xiaoxia-meimei, this is government documents. Where did you get them?"
His little green plum was even more ferocious than her.
"Money makes the world go round." Shi Sheng flipped through the documents. "Don't mess with me. If you want to sleep, go sleep by yourself."
"I want to sleep with you." Yu Jiu sucked on her earlobe, the tip of his tongue sweeping across it. Shi Sheng couldn't concentrate at all.
Smack! Shi Sheng slammed the documents on the table and grabbed Yu Jiu by the collar. "Today, I will make sure you can't get out of bed."
…
In the apartment.
Shen Jiayin sat on the windowsill, gazing at the thousands of lights in the distance.
Inside the house, the phone rang.
Shen Jiayin jumped down from the windowsill and entered the house to answer the call.
"Hello …"
Apart from this "hello", there was no other sound in the room.
Until Shen Jiayin hung up.
After a while, she dialed a number.
It took a while for the call to be answered. The voice on the other end was a little muffled, probably because he had fallen asleep.
"I've thought about your suggestion."
"Oh?" Yin Mo dragged out his words. "Come to my house."
Shen Jiayin tightened her grip on the phone. "Come over to my place."
"Shen Jiayin, don't test my patience." Yin Mo hung up the phone.
Shen Jiayin slammed the phone on the table.
Her expression was gloomy and ugly. After a while, she changed into a dress and left with her bag.
By the time she reached Yin Mo's place, the door opened before she could even knock. She was pulled inside and the door slammed shut behind her.
A kiss reeking of alcohol assaulted her roughly. She was pinned against the door and had no way out.
"Yin Mo." Shen Jiayin struggled to move to the side. "Sober up."
Shen Jiayin's resistance made Yin Mo stop. He turned on the lights at the entrance and turned to go upstairs.
He didn't look at Shen Jiayin at all.
Shen Jiayin gritted her teeth and followed him upstairs.
Yin Mo stood in the study smoking. Shen Jiayin dawdled for a while before entering. She was a little afraid of this man.
"I can help you." Yin Mo pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and ground it. "But you have to add another condition."
"Say it." Shen Jiayin tried her best to maintain her image, but in front of this man, she felt that no matter how hard she tried, it was useless.
She was already in a sorry state, and it was as if she was naked in front of him.
