Chapter 50: 050 Sign this document

Chu Jin raised an eyebrow without a word, "Actually, this is your true purpose, isn’t it?"

Zi smiled ingratiatingly, "You’re the best, Jin..."

Chu Jin: "..."

Zi: "..." I’m most afraid of sudden silence in the air!

Chu Jin raised his eyebrows, "I’ll buy it for you tomorrow."

Hearing this, Zi immediately started dancing with joy, chanting ’Long live Jin.’

Thinking that tomorrow was Friday, and only one day left until his appointment with Huang Mao, Chu Jin asked, "Did you prepare the ID card and household registration you were supposed to help me with?"

Zi, a master of the Internet, possessed the universe’s most powerful brain, in addition to being bound to the system.

It had to be said, in critical moments, he was still very useful.

Analyzing the host’s emotions, Zi pouted dissatisfied and retorted, "What do you mean by ’critical moments’? I have always been amazing, okay?"

Chu Jin immediately nodded, "That’s right, Zi is the most amazing."

Upon hearing this, Zi immediately lifted his cute little head with pride, boasting, "Of course, I am the most amazing in the entire universe!"

Chu Jin: "..." So amazing, huh? Going to soar to the heavens?

Zi stuck out his chest with pride, still immersed in his own world, haughtily saying, "All those things, I have already prepared long ago and placed them inside the Purple Sound Spirit Box for you. It’s too easy, basically a piece of cake... just a splash of water..."

**

The next morning.

When Chu Jin came downstairs, Li Ruyu was already sitting at the dining table eating breakfast.

Seeing Chu Jin coming down, she gestured to him eagerly, her eyes nearly crinkling into slits, "Jin, you’re up! Come, come eat breakfast."

Chu Jin was startled for a moment. This was very unlike Li Ruyu!

The last time she was this enthusiastic, she had been calculating to have him replace Zhao Yiling to secure a marriage agreement with the Mo family.

Who knows what her motive was this time.

Chu Jin approached Li Ruyu without betraying any emotion and responded with his head down, "Auntie, good morning."

He appeared very well-behaved and obedient.

Li Ruyu spoke with great affection, "Good child, sit down and eat your breakfast."

Upon hearing this, Chu Jin carefully took a seat opposite Li Ruyu.

He perfectly embodied the former meek and fragile persona of his predecessor.

Li Ruyu looked up at Chu Jin, eventually curling her lips into a smirk of disdain, truly thinking this good-for-nothing could transform.

Just the same old vulnerable figure she could manipulate at will, forever a straw bag, mud that wouldn’t stick to the wall.

Li Ruyu’s expression changed rapidly.

Then, with a worried face, she began to reminisce about the past, "Your father passed away early, leaving you and your mother alone. I remember when your uncle first brought you here, you were just a little girl, so thin and frail. In the blink of an eye, five years have passed, and now you’re all grown up."

Chu Jin bit into his sandwich, his expression unchanged, and he remained silent.

According to the usual script, they would first play the family affection card to numb the other person. The words spoken afterward would be her real purpose.

As she finished speaking, Li Ruyu poured a glass of milk for Chu Jin, saying with apparent concern, "You’re at the age where you’re growing, you should drink more milk, look how thin you are."

Chu Jin immediately showed a bewildered and flattered expression, saying awkwardly, "Thank... thank you, aunt."

She thought, what game was Li Ruyu really playing, to actually fawn over her so obsequiously?

This was definitely not in the original host’s memories.

Her acting was about to explode!

Truly at a queenly level.

If it had been the original body, she would have certainly been deceived by now.

"Silly child," Li Ruyu chided with a smile, "Why be so polite with your aunt, we are all family."

After a few silent minutes, Li Ruyu slowly continued, her voice filled with emotion, "Your father passed away too soon, and he didn’t leave much for you and your mother. Poor thing, my sister is lying unconscious in the hospital, and the only thing your father left for you is the Chu Group. Your uncle and I have been waiting for you to grow up, so you could take over Chu Group as soon as possible."

At this point, Li Ruyu paused slightly.

Then she said, "Your uncle is getting on in years, and the affairs of the company can only rely on Yiling. Yiling is managing two companies on her own, and she is so busy every day she barely sets foot at home. Recently, the Chu Group has been experiencing a cash flow shortage, and the child Yiling is so anxious she has lost a great deal of weight."

Li Ruyu let out a sigh,

"The Chu Group is your father’s lifelong effort, and you are a sensible child, you certainly can’t bear to see your father’s lifelong work go to waste..."

A sly flicker quickly passed through Chu Jin’s downcast eyes—here comes the main point, after such a roundabout, Li Ruyu was finally getting to the heart of the matter.

Chu Jin slightly raised her eyebrows, the slyness vanished in the blink of an eye. She quickly looked up at Li Ruyu and interrupted her directly, asking with urgency, "Aunt, what’s wrong with my father’s company?"

Seeing the fish had taken the bait, a gleam flashed in the depths of Li Ruyu’s eyes.

Li Ruyu gently patted Chu Jin’s hand, consoling her, "It’s nothing major, just a financial issue, but if not handled properly, it could indeed be irreparable."

As she spoke the last sentence, a worried look appeared on Li Ruyu’s face.

Chu Jin finished her last bite of bread and asked in a very cooperative manner, "Then what should we do? The Chu Group is the only thing my dad left for me in this world, aunt, you must think of a solution, the Chu Group can’t go bankrupt!"

"There is a solution," Li Ruyu said softly, making a hand gesture behind her.

Soon a servant approached, holding a document.

"Jin girl," Li Ruyu flipped the document to the last page, then pushed it in front of Chu Jin, her voice gentle, "As long as you sign this document, the Chu Group won’t go bankrupt."

Li Ruyu smiled with great affection.

Chu Jin cast her gaze down at the document on the table, pretending not to understand, she asked, "What is this document? If I sign it, will it save Chu Group?"

"Of course, as long as you sign, Chu Group will be saved. Could your aunt possibly harm you?" After saying this, Li Ruyu’s tone became more insistent, her voice serious, "Unless you don’t want to save Chu Group!"

Chu Jin nodded as if she half understood, a look of panic on her face.

The original host might have been a bit foolish and timid, but she had deep feelings for Chu Group. Now that Li Ruyu was tricking her into thinking something was wrong with Chu Group, Chu Jin certainly couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.

As the saying goes, strike the snake at its vital point. Apart from Zhao Yan, Chu Jin’s other soft spot was the Chu Group.

That’s why, on the very first day after her rebirth, Li Ruyu used Zhao Yan and Chu Group to threaten Chu Jin.

Unfortunately for Li Ruyu, what she didn’t know was that Chu Jin was no longer the one she could manipulate at will.

If it had been the original host, she would have been conquered by Li Ruyu’s acting and would have signed the document right away.

Actually, there was no issue with Chu Group at all.

This document was a ’Company Transfer Agreement.’ The moment she signed it, Chu Group would be renamed and owned by someone else.

Li Ruyu was quite pleased with Chu Jin’s reaction. She opened the lid of the ink pad case, tempting her slowly, "Jin girl, make a handprint in this spot," then she flipped the page of the agreement, "and sign your name here."
