As soon as Qin Ruomeng finished speaking, Ye Tianfan suddenly looked up, his sharp eyes narrowing slightly. The Long Family was clearly trying to win over Su Yueyi!
But what exactly is it about Su Yueyi that makes her worth winning over by the Long Family?
Ye Tianfan glanced at Qin Ruomeng and asked, "The Long Family is obviously trying to win over Su Yueyi. Why would they do that?"
Qin Ruomeng also looked puzzled, furrowing her brows, and said, "I don't understand either. Reasonably speaking, Su Yueyi is a girl from a single-parent family, running a small noodle shop with her mother. They live a very frugal life..."
Ye Tianfan waved his hand and said, "Tell me something I don't know."
Qin Ruomeng shook her head and said, "That's all the Qin Family knows. Even my grandfather is personally involved this time, but still, we don't understand what the Long Family is up to!"
Hearing that even Elder Qin had personally gotten involved and still didn't understand, Ye Tianfan's brows almost knitted together.
He knew that Long Yuqing would never randomly extend an olive branch to a girl of mediocre talent, so why was she recruiting Su Yueyi?
Could it be that Su Yueyi has a secret, or has Long Yuqing investigated him and thought he was interested in Su Yueyi, doing this on purpose?
But it shouldn't be!
Ye Tianfan couldn't figure it out, not at all.
But one thing was certain: Long Yuqing had a purpose in recruiting Su Yueyi, and it definitely wasn't because of her abilities!
This world is never short of capable people!
At this moment, Qin Ruomeng let out a long sigh, her expression slowly turning distressed, her long eyelashes gently trembling, casting a shadow in her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Ye Tianfan asked.
"Ah..."
Qin Ruomeng sighed again, her eyes full of resentment as she looked at Ye Tianfan and said, "This time, the Qin Family has lost to the Long Family. My grandfather told me to secure two people, and I couldn't get either."
As she spoke, Qin Ruomeng's eyes reddened, full of grievance. Her beautiful eyes lowered, lightly smoothing her temples, forcing a relieved smile towards Ye Tianfan, but tears were already welling up in her eyes.
The always strong Qin Ruomeng suddenly showing this expression surprised Ye Tianfan. He knew clearly that one of the two people Elder Qin wanted Qin Ruomeng to secure was him. Seeing Qin Ruomeng's aggrieved look, a natural instinct of affection developed in Ye Tianfan's heart in an instant.
After all, beauty is always endearing, especially for such a stunning beauty like Qin Ruomeng. So, raising an eyebrow, Ye Tianfan asked, "Who is the other person your Qin Family wants to secure?"
Although Ye Tianfan wouldn't get involved with aristocratic families, seeing Qin Ruomeng so aggrieved couldn't help but stir compassion. He wouldn't go to the Qin Family, but that didn't mean he couldn't help them.
Because it was his refusal of the Qin Family's invitation that made Qin Ruomeng so aggrieved, Ye Tianfan felt a bit guilty. He wanted to find out who the other person the Qin Family was trying to secure was and then help secretly, as long as the Qin Family doesn't find out.
Qin Ruomeng shook her head vigorously, lightly biting her lower lip, struggling not to let her tears fall, and said, "My grandfather told me to secure you and Ji Liancheng. Getting either could ensure 30 years of prosperity for the Qin Family, but... it's too late now, Ji Liancheng has agreed to join the Long Family."
Before the words were finished, Qin Ruomeng couldn't hold back anymore. A few drops of crystalline tears slid down her cheeks. Filled with grievance, she looked up at Ye Tianfan. Her fiancé, so close to her, kept rejecting the Qin Family's invitations time and again.
Now, Kyoto University's financial genius Ji Liancheng has been poached by the Long Family, dealing a double blow, leaving the once strong Qin Ruomeng feeling a trace of helplessness. She couldn't help but ask herself, if one day Elder Qin really leaves, can she, without Ye Tianfan's help, keep the massive Qin Group going in this stormy business world?
Qin Ruomeng sighed quietly, her face covered in tears, looking pitiful under the dim light.
At this time, Ye Tianfan frowned slightly and asked, "Who is Ji Liancheng? Why haven't I heard of this person?"
In Ye Tianfan's impression, he didn't know Ji Liancheng, nor had he heard of him at Kyoto University.
But if Elder Qin gave such a high evaluation, this person must have his unique talents!
With a face full of affection, Ye Tianfan looked at Qin Ruomeng and said, "Don't cry. Whatever conditions the Long Family offered him, you can double it. As the saying goes, you can't catch wolves without giving up children, and you can't catch bandits without sacrificing wives! To poach talent, you need to be willing to spend."
Qin Ruomeng gave Ye Tianfan a wistful glance and said, "Our Qin Group offered three times the annual salary of the Long Family! Yet, this Ji Liancheng still chose to go to the Long Family."
"Three times?"
Ye Tianfan looked at Qin Ruomeng in surprise. If the Qin Family offered three times the amount and Ji Liancheng still chose the Long Family, it wasn't about the money! Or maybe Ji Liancheng needed more than just money, but whatever the reason, his choice of the Long Family showed that Long Yuqing was more skillful!
Ye Tianfan slowly sat on the sofa and asked, "What exactly is his talent that makes both the Qin Family and the Long Family compete to poach him?"
Qin Ruomeng sighed again, slowly sitting beside Ye Tianfan, and said, "He is the only person in Kyoto University's history to have perfect scores in everything."
Hearing this, Ye Tianfan showed a hint of disdainful sneer. Was Elder Qin's high evaluation of Ji Liancheng really just because he was a good student? This was too ridiculous!
"A straight-A student? I say, Miss Qin, you need to understand that your company hires employees, not top students! A company is not a school; being good academically doesn't mean you can do the job well!"
Qin Ruomeng nodded and said, "I certainly know that, but Ji Liancheng is different!"
"What's different?"
"In a company with daily transactions of billions, he can look at the accounts once and accurately calculate the transaction details to the cent within a minute. Every dollar, every dime without a single mistake."
Hearing this, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but change his face slightly. Being a fellow finance student, he knew how much volume of calculation that required. Even a professional accountant with a computer couldn't achieve such precision in ten days.
Yet Ji Liancheng could complete the precision calculations of billions of transactions within a minute using only mental math. With just this ability, the guy is a talent!
Qin Ruomeng looked at Ye Tianfan and continued, "A good corporate actuary might not help you make money, but he can save money for you. With the scale of our Qin Family business, the annual expenses are not small. If we have a good actuary, saving billions each year is not a problem, let alone that Ji Liancheng's prowess is not limited to actuarial science."
Ye Tianfan frowned slightly and asked, "Oh? What other abilities does he have?"
Qin Ruomeng sighed again and said, "Before, during Ji Liancheng's internship, he went to a company on the verge of bankruptcy and in just three months, he revived it, making it a famous enterprise in Jiangzhou City, ranking in the top ten of Jiangzhou City's enterprises."
Three months?
Turning a company on the brink of bankruptcy into one of Jiangzhou City's top ten?
This isn't achieved merely by extraordinary calculation ability; this Ji Liancheng must also be quite resourceful!
In three months, turning the tide, saving a company from the brink of collapse, with this ability alone, Ji Liancheng is worth all the business tycoons spending money to compete for.
At this moment, Ye Tianfan's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. It seems Kyoto University truly harbors hidden talents, and Ji Liancheng is indeed remarkable!
"Ah..." Qin Ruomeng's face was full of grievance, sighing one after another.
"Now it's useless to say anything. Ji Liancheng has already joined the Long Group, and it was Long Yuqing herself who signed the contract with him."
As she spoke, Qin Ruomeng shook her head vigorously, seemingly trying to shake all these worries out of her mind. Her long, silky hair floated lightly, the scent of her hair spreading out, and a waft of feminine grace washed over Ye Tianfan, leaving him somewhat dazed.
At this moment, Qin Ruomeng stood up from the sofa, walked slowly to the wine rack, picked up a bottle of '82 Lafite, turned her beautiful eyes to look at Ye Tianfan, and said, "Would you like to have a drink with me?"
"Drowning your sorrows?" Ye Tianfan looked at Qin Ruomeng's graceful figure and asked.
"Perhaps. Don't you men often say that getting drunk can solve a thousand sorrows? I might as well try this today."
Qin Ruomeng casually picked up two wine glasses, with a faint smile on her face as she walked towards Ye Tianfan. Although that smile was slightly bitter, on Qin Ruomeng's face, it was still an enchanting beauty.
