Ning Chen's smile slowly froze, and his tone became indifferent.
"If you spilled it, so be it. You are the young mistress of the Ning family. Remember, in the future, no one can bully you, including the people from the Shi family!"
Qin Yu was shocked, and she looked at Ning Chen.
He was protecting her!
He rubbed Qin Yu's head.
"Silly girl, didn't you say that you were born to be mine, and you would die with my ghost? Then, no one can pick on you, except me. Do you understand?"
She felt her ice cold heart melting into water.
All these years, no one had ever protected her like this.
Moreover, what Qin Yu did not expect was that because she had protected Ah Yu and Ah Bi, the servants in the house had also started to look at her in a different light.
Although this young mistress was not mentally sound, she was kind and pure.
As long as you treated her well, she would return the favor wholeheartedly.
Moreover, the eldest young master pampered her.
Thus, on the second day of Qin Yu's arrival in the Ning family, she had already received the approval of the household, but of course, they were only attendants.
She remembered Ning Chen's words that moved her. She knew she had to act silly and cute, but she had to keep in mind not to annoy anyone with her front.
She didn't want to be disliked here.
After all, staying in the Ning family was also related to her huge upcoming business plans which involved her four assistants - Dong Lai, Xi Wang, Nan Yuan and Bei Chi.
Although they met through the internet and had never seen each other face to face before, they had already established a clear division of labor to finance M&A, cultivating a rare, tacit understanding.
They called her 'Genius Girl', and their organization was called 'Glory World'. Their goal was to make a huge sum of money.
Qin Yu had no concept of money. She was considered a fool in the real world now anyway.
However, she was very passionate about business. Doing all this was more like a pleasure to her.
It was the same for her other 4 comrades. Qin Yu could feel that they were not people who lacked wealth, but their dedication to making a fortune was boundless.
Their money eventually became only figures to them. Qin Yu did not have much freedom, so there was no value to it since she couldn't spend it. The others were not big spenders either.
Later, they met 'doctors' and 'hunters'.
The 'doctors' were real doctors.
Hunters were the unemployed.
These two groups of people stood at the top of the venture capital world. Their company was called Tian Kun, the most mysterious, and also the most eye-catching corporation in the world.
People often joked at cocktail parties that they wished they would be chosen by Tian Kun.
Being selected by such a prestigious company to invest meant that they would be able to start their path toward the peak of their lives.
Glory World and Tian Kun had not gotten to know each other until they clashed, and in the end, they formed an alliance.
Glory World continued to do business that raked in cash, and their money was also managed by the doctors and hunters. Money was not limited to only making more money, but it could be used to do other meaningful things as well.
As for Qin Yu, she did not care about the abundance of wealth her parents had left her. It was a gift, and if she had the ability to fend for herself, she would not squander the money that her parents left her.
She knew that her parents loved her. That was enough.
She firmly believed that her parents were watching her from above the skies. So, she had to live well, never stop achieving, and try her best to live a wonderful life.
As for Qu Li's behavior of desperately trying to plunder her inheritance, Qin Yu simply thought it was funny.
She had asked Dong Lai, Xi Wang, Nan Yuan and Bei Chi to investigate Shi Yong's company's operations, and found that the Shi Group's main business was renovation and design.
Her adoptive father claimed to have started it with his pension fund, and with the support of Qu Li's maiden family, the firm was slowly built up.
In reality, Qu Li's maiden family had only demands, not any kindness to give. The origin of the funds that had been used for Shi Yong's start-up costs was unknown. The four of her subordinates had once suspected that the money might have been her father's.
Not only that, Shi Yong did not have sufficient ability to support the Shi Group's expansions.
He was not a broad-minded person, and instead, was a nepotist when it came to hiring employees. Regardless of whether it was the Shi or the Qu family, none of them had any outstanding talents.
As a result, the Shi Group was made up of many employees, yet it was hollow inside. It was inevitable that they would have ended up in a financial crisis.
Worse yet, Shi Yong had not bothered to investigate the root problem and instead, blindly looked for a cop out, which led him to the Ning family.
In this manner, all three members of the Shi family had a similar mindset.
Shi Yong had been warned by his comrades in the past, so he was still restrained.
However, Qu Li and Shi Xiao were different. They had blatantly wanted to use the Ning family as a tool to achieve a brighter future, but they had not wanted to make Shi Xiao marry a blind man.
Hence, they sacrificed Qin Yu without hesitation, replacing Shi Xiao as a bride into the Ning family.
