I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 740: This is Not Rash

Chapter 740: Chapter 740: This is Not Rash

"My son just scribbled that."

"Dad." Bobo ran in from outside, as if he heard his father call his name.

Short and chubby, he stood before the blackboard, more than a meter shorter than the abominable, inappropriate stick figure.

Looking at Yu Jingting who was talking nonsense, Suizi seemed to read a line from his face: Don’t believe in rumors, don’t spread rumors.

It felt even more awkward...

"Let’s talk business." Suizi took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to go wipe the blackboard.

She told herself to keep calm, the more she tried to hide it, the more conspicuous it would become. She needed to ignore the embarrassment.

"Suizi, you are a straightforward person, so I’ll say it bluntly. I want to buy shares".

"Don’t you already own some shares of the roller rink?" Yu Jingting understood his intention but didn’t expose it.

Everyone in the room pretended to be confused even though they understood clearly.

"Brother-in-law, we both know what’s what. I’ve long figured out that you’re aiming for something bigger and that the roller rink is just a small toy for you. What I want to invest in is your next venture."

"What if I was to enter public service? It’s a secure job," Yu Jingting said, pouring him a cup of tea.

Fan Xi burst into laughter.

"While others are eyeing the secure job, I really can’t tell if you value it. I don’t know what you plan to do next, but I trust both of you and I want to invest, no matter what."

Fan Xi pulled out a bankbook.

"This is from selling my house and my savings over the years."

When Suizi heard that he had sold his house, she paused while pouring the tea and asked,

"Where is your house located...?"

"Oh, it’s in the alley right in front of your grandma’s house."

Suizi silently calculated the potential market value of the property and suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

Although housing prices in Beijing were not yet ridiculous, it was not easy for ordinary people to own an independent courtyard. Most people were crowded into shared yards.

Selling a house to start a business, trying to outdo the potential appreciation of the property is incredibly difficult. But you could buy low and sell high, sell the house now, buy it back in two years, and hold it; then you could just wait to become a local tyrant.

"Our family has plenty of talents, why do you value us? I still need to study and my husband is just a recent graduate, unemployed--" Suizi patted the unemployed man, and the unemployed man nodded in agreement.

"I’m just a country bumpkin; I don’t know much."

"Please, don’t be silly. I never took part in their gossip about you. I’m not good at many things, but I can judge people. I truly believe I’m not wrong about you two."

Fan Xi, usually crafty, spoke sincerely today and laid all his assets on the table. Suizi knew this was rare of him. For Fan Xi, this was also a big gamble.

Suizi looked at Yu Jingting. She was good at making decisions but not as good as Yu Jingting at judging people. She wanted to know his opinion.

Yu Jingting neither agreed nor disagreed, but he picked up Bobo who was sitting on the side waiting for a chance to sip some tea.

"Son, do you want this uncle to hold you?"

Bobo looked at Fan Xi keenly, then reached out without any hesitation.

"Hold."

Fan Xi was still waiting for Yu Jingting’s reply.

When he came, he thought they would not accept him at once. After all, it’s normal to consider cautiously when it comes to partnership.

He thought of many strategies, but he certainly didn’t expect that Yu Jingting would hand his son over to him. What did that mean?

The weight of the child in his arms brought him back to reality. Fan Xi looked at Bobo with a smile.

"You look thin, but you’re quite solid to hold."

Bobo was probably used to being called chubby by his parents. Suddenly, there was an uncle who said he was thin - even though the uncle said he looked thin, it still sounded nice.

"Son, do you like this uncle?" Yu Jingting asked.

"I like," Bobo nodded without any hesitation.

"Okay, I’ll take the money. I’ll call you when the shareholders’ meeting is held," Yu Jingting agreed decisively.

"Uh..." Even though Fan Xi had considered many possibilities, he never thought it would be this easy.

"Don’t you need to think it over carefully?" Fan Xi asked.

"Think it over carefully - alright, let’s add another layer of security, eldest daughter~~~" Yu Jingting shouted.

Luoluo, who was playing in the yard, ran in like a little train when she heard her father calling.

"Eldest daughter, what do you think of this uncle?" Yu Jingting asked.

Luoluo looked at him, grinned, and threw a flying kiss to Fan Xi.

It seemed that both children didn’t dislike him. Although they were not as enthusiastic as when they met Fan Huang level people, compared to others, they still liked him a lot.

"Look, my daughter likes you too, so it can’t be wrong."

Suizi nodded in agreement, "Yes, that’s the logic."

"Is it really that casual?" Fan Xi couldn’t help laughing. If he hadn’t seen Suizi and her husband’s handiwork, he would have thought these two casual people before him were nobodies.

"You’ll understand after a while," Suizi said, not elaborating further.

Her two children, like a "mogul detector," always liked the rich and powerful.

Fan Xi only thought they had studied him before using the children as a distraction, and he didn’t dwell on it anymore.

When asked about the project Yu Jingting would be working on in the future, Yu Jingting only told him to wait for news, without revealing too much.

As a result, when Fan Xi left the Yu Family, he felt unsure.

It seemed like he had accomplished something, but not completely.

Fan Xi was only half right.

Yu Jingting and Suizi did indeed do a background check of Fan Xi and got a definite evaluation from Fan Huang that he was trustworthy.

But what really convinced Suizi and Yu Jingting to agree to his partnership were their two children.

Although Suizi was very against superstition, she was still somewhat confident in the mystical power of her children’s affection.

Suizi had a few hundred thousand to start with, along with the investment from Yu Jingting’s college buddies, and by ordinary people’s standards, that was enough.

However, both of them were confident about this venture and intended to do something big from the very beginning. They planned to leverage their funds, and naturally, the more, the better.

They didn’t reveal all their plans to Fan Xi as they wanted to give him some buffer time. It was still not too late for him to exit the investment at this stage. Of course, they also aimed to teach Fan Xi a lesson and help Yu Jingting establish his authority.

In this ups and downs of handling people, Yu Jingting’s mastery of balance was perfect. Sometimes, when Suizi saw him handle people, she was amazed.

If she had worked as a couple with him in her previous life, how could she have been cheated by cunning people like Li Youcai? The couple’s abilities perfectly complement each other. What he was good at was her weakness, and what she was skilled at could save him a lot of trouble.
