The Stingiest Boyfriend: The Entire Internet Begged For Me To Break Up - Chapter 77

77 Doing Good Without Leaving a Name

Seeing that he was so serious and did not seem to be lying, Lin Xi also leaned over to see if he was telling the truth.

Just as the two of them were waiting eagerly, the ATM screen suddenly returned to the main page and there was no longer any reaction.

Chen Che was stunned for a moment. He hurriedly looked at the location of the card and his mind buzzed.

“F*ck! My card has been swallowed!”

!!
The corners of Chen Che’s mouth twitched, and ten thousand curses ran through his heart.

“Lin Xi, wait. I’ll call someone to take out my card now,” Chen Che said anxiously.

Lin Xi patted his shoulder comfortingly. “Forget it. I still have to go back to the company to help today. I don’t have time to accompany you anymore. Why don’t we look at it another day?”

Chen Che looked disappointed. Seeing that Lin Xi really had something on and that the card had been swallowed, he did not know how long it would take to take it out. He could only nod helplessly.

As soon as Lin Xi left, Chen Che rushed to the bank beside her and took his ID card back.

Then, Chen Che inserted the card into the self-service ATM again. An exaggerated number appeared on it.

F*ck!

Why did this lousy machine become useful after Lin Xi left?

Chen Che cursed in his heart and returned to work aggrievedly.

At this moment, at LI Costume Design Company.

Before Lin Xi entered the company, she heard everyone’s conversation.

“I knew it. Our company is not destined to die. The big shot invested $5 million in one go!”

“The big shot even invested anonymously. He’s doing a good deed without leaving a name!”

“This investor didn’t ask to meet or sign a contract. He trusts Sister Xi too much!”

“Sister Xi is a female CEO with both looks and trustworthiness. How would she not acknowledge it after taking the money?”

At this moment, Lin Xi happened to walk in. She smiled and nodded. “That’s right. He helped us out of goodwill and trusts us. We should work harder and get out of this predicament as soon as possible. Let him see the benefits.”

When everyone saw Lin Xi enter, they were stunned for a moment. Then, Han Jiarui walked past everyone and rushed to Lin Xi, hugging her.

“Lin Xi, our company is saved. A miracle has really happened.”

Han Jiarui’s voice was choked with excitement.

Lin Xi gently patted Han Jiarui’s back and comforted her like she was coaxing a child. “Alright, don’t cry. You should be happy to receive the investment!”

When she found out that the company was about to go bankrupt, Han Jiarui didn’t cry. Instead, after receiving the investment, she cried harder than anyone else.

Actually, Lin Xi understood that they had sacrificed too much for the company all these years. Other than themselves, no one else understood the hardship.

At this moment, Han Jiarui’s phone suddenly rang, interrupting this tear-jerking moment.

Han Jiarui glanced at the caller ID and immediately wiped her tears before answering. “Hello, CEO Wei.”

The man on the other end of the phone was called Wei Jianmin, a high-level executive of a design company. He said gently, “Xiao Han, it’s been a long time since we contacted each other! I heard that your company has encountered some difficulties recently.”

“Yes, but…”

Han Jiarui was about to explain when Wei Jianmin interrupted her.

“I’ve always admired you and Lin Xi. It’s not easy for the two girls to work hard at such a young age. I’ve had a good time working with you before, so I helped you.”

Han Jiarui and Lin Xi were both stunned. They looked at each other and understood what the other party was thinking.

“I don’t have much money to invest on my own, but I have a friend who’s in the upper echelons of Zhi Lai Venture Capital. I told him about your company.”

“I told him that you guys are capable, keep your promises, and are willing to work hard. It’s a pity that the company went bankrupt like this. As for whether he will invest or not, I’m not sure.”

Han Jiarui’s eyes instantly widened as she hurriedly said, “President Wei, actually, we’ve already received a large investment, but it was invested anonymously. Could this be Zhi Lai?”

When Wei Jianmin heard this, his eyes darted around and he replied affirmatively, “Is there a need to ask? It’s definitely Zhi Lai! According to the current situation of your company, it’s impossible for anyone to invest without an acquaintance’s introduction and guarantee.”

“Moreover, I estimate that your company needs at least $2 million to maintain operations. Other than a large company with deep financial resources like Zhi Lai, who else can take out this money and not be in a hurry to expose their identity?”

Han Jiarui nodded and felt that what Wei Jianmin said made sense.

“President Wei, thank you so much. I didn’t expect you to keep thinking about us even though we’ve only worked together once.”

Han Jiarui’s tone was sincere. She really didn’t expect Wei Jianmin to help them contact the venture capital company.

“It’s a small matter. It’s mainly because you’re capable that they invested. Otherwise, it’s useless no matter what I say.”

Han Jiarui exchanged a few pleasantries with Wei Jianmin on the phone before hanging up.

“Lin Xi, so CEO Wei contacted the venture capital company and asked his friend to invest in our company.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Xi’s eyes widened in surprise.

They had only worked with Wei Jianmin once. Although their cooperation was very pleasant, they had never had the chance to work together after that, so they had not contacted each other for a long time.

They did not expect that after so long, when they were in trouble, Wei Jianmin would actually stand up for them.

However, if Zhi Lai Venture was the real investor, why did Chen Che say that he was also an investor?

Before Lin Xi could think it through, everyone started to devote themselves to work.

After being idle for a few days, she thought that everyone would not be used to work. She did not expect everyone to be very motivated at this moment, as if they cherished this rare opportunity.

At night, Lin Xi had just packed her things and was about to bring everyone to eat when her phone rang.

Lin Xi pressed the answer button and Chen Che’s urgent voice came from the other end. “Lin Xi, do you have time to come over after work?”

“No, I’ve already arranged a celebration party with the employees tonight. Why don’t I look for you tomorrow?”

Lin Xi’s voice was gentle with a hint of sweetness.

Chen Che had no resistance to this voice and agreed readily. “Alright, then I’ll treat you to lunch tomorrow afternoon.”

After the two of them hung up, Lin Xi brought the employees to the barbecue shop. Chen Che returned to the self-service withdrawal hall again, his heart suffering.

It was another sleepless night. Chen Che lay down with the card for the entire night. The next day, he was still energetic.

In the morning, Chen Che specially went to the hair salon for a haircut and went to the mall to shop. He chose a few sets of new clothes and was about to pay.

At this moment, the netizens in the live-stream were already in an uproar.

[F*ck! Old Scrooge Chen has changed. He actually spent money to cut his hair and buy new clothes!]

[In order to date the goddess, Chen Che, who has always been stingy, has put in a lot of money!]

There was a burst of laughter in the live-stream, but when he paid, everyone’s expressions froze.
