365-Day Trial Marriage With Hunk: Wife's A Little Wild

What did he mean by that? It sounded as if she wasn’t useful enough.

A layperson like her had achieved this much in such a short time, was she still to be looked down upon?

“You’re smart, but you’re not ruthless enough. Do you know why men are the ones dominating the business world?” Dan Hanjie arched his brow and straightened Youxuan’s face.

He held her chin, forcing her to lift her head.

As their eyes met, Youxuan caught a terrifying coldness in his dark eyes, making her freeze.

His lips parted slightly, every word resounding, “Because the ‘kindness of a woman’ seldom brings success.”

“If it were me, I would not only acquire the scattered shares of Qin Group in the stock market, but also target the weak-willed major shareholders of Qin Group for sabotage. These people are profit-driven and easy to sway.”

In the business world, there are no absolute enemies as long as there are sufficient benefits.

“But that alone is not enough, his target is you. He doesn’t simply want to be a major shareholder of Qin Group on par with you, he also wants to clip your wings. Therefore, in selecting his targets, he would add one more condition.”

“What?” Youxuan stared at him without batting an eyelid, holding her breath nervously.

“The old shareholders who support you.”

Presumption confirmed.

“What, getting nervous?” Casting a glance at her pale and rigid face, Dan Hanjie tenderly brushed his fingers over her forehead.

Tracing a line from there to the small tip of her nose, then to the corners of her mouth, finally stopping at her cherry lips.

Just as Youxuan was about to speak, his finger covered her mouth.

“Shush”

Dan Hanjie shook his head, “Don’t be in a hurry, wait a little longer, let’s see if my guess is right.”

“Buzzz”

No sooner had he finished his words, than the phone on the table rang.

Just as Dan Hanjie was about to reach for it, Youxuan beat him to it and picked up the phone, looking up at him.

Only after seeing that he showed no sign of displeasure did she answer the call, switching on the speaker.

“Mr. Jie, Jin Chenye has made his move. It was just confirmed that Director Lin, who holds 5 percent of Qin Group’s shares, has transferred his shares…”

Youxuan couldn’t take in anything more after that.

Director Lin, a man she had known since her mother was alive, although she hadn’t seen him for years after moving abroad, had always been supportive of her because of her mother. He had been backing her secretly after she came back to China.

Leaving everything else aside, from a business perspective, anyone with experience would know that giving up on Qin Group at this point is unwise.

How could Director Lin agree…

The ‘kindness of a woman’ seldom brings success.

Dan Hanjie’s words from earlier suddenly echoed in her ears. Startled, Youxuan gripped her phone tightly, “Help me find out, what method did Jin Chenye use to make Director Lin sell his shares.”

The person on the other end seemed to falter, followed by a long bout of silence.

Only then did Youxuan realize, this was not one of her subordinates – how could he take her orders…

She lifted her head to look at Dan Hanjie.

The roguish glint in Dan Hanjie’s eyes flashed, as he took the phone from her: “Go and find out.”

“Yes.” Came the respectful reply from the other end, and the call was terminated.

“Dan Hanjie…”

“You want me to help you.” Dan Hanjie spoke indifferently, it was not a question but a statement.

She was not one to hide her feelings, it was always written on her face.

“What’s in it for me?”
