"Song Chen, what do you think of him?"

Xiao Xue has her own apartment, located in a neighborhood near Dongou Building, not far from the Hyatt Bar.

She was wearing a white lace nightgown, the semi-transparent fabric barely concealing her full and sensual body, and her large, prominent breasts. She had set up a small bar in her home, and Jiang Yan was sitting on a high stool, pouring herself a drink.

She was a woman who liked things simple and straightforward, wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, with a faint, distant smile always on her unadorned face.

Hearing Wang Xiaoxue's probing question, Jiang Yan held the transparent glass with her thumb and index finger, gently swirled the blood-red wine, and raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, saying lightly, "A talent!"

Rolling her eyes, Wang Xiaoxue muttered, "Everyone knows he's a talent! They even call him a 'genius'! You know I'm not asking about that!"

Jiang Yan smiled faintly, still not answering directly, "Calling him a genius might be a bit exaggerated! But although he doesn't read much, his vision is indeed very far-sighted, like... he can foresee things! His words always give people a sense of certainty, making them believe him without even realizing it!"

"Only three parts?" Wang Xiaoxue teased, sitting opposite Jiang Yan, placing a high glass in front of her, and pouring it a third full.

Jiang Yan smiled faintly, "Some things don't need to be said so bluntly! Even if I trust this person, my past experiences and family education tell me to be cautious!"

Wang Xiaoxue laughed to herself and changed the subject, "There's a question I've wanted to ask you for a long time. When you and Yang De met for the arranged marriage, who was dissatisfied with whom? Did Yang De also want to just have a one-night stand with women, not wanting to be tied down too early?"

Nodding, Jiang Yan smiled faintly, "Back then in Kestin... Yang De was very honest with me, saying he didn't want to be tied down by marriage. But I think it might be because he was hurt by his girlfriend in college. He, like me, is cautious when it comes to people!"

"So, he rejected you? Hehe!" Wang Xiaoxue giggled.

Jiang Yan wasn't angry, just smiled with a hint of reminiscence, "Half and half! The always gentle Yang De isn't my type!"

Wang Xiaoxue asked curiously, "What type do you like? In my opinion, a woman like you, who is reserved and sultry, should find a domineering, chauvinistic, and aggressive boy!"

Jiang Yan smiled, not getting angry at Wang Xiaoxue's comment, but countered with a slight sarcasm, "I'm sultry, you're flirtatious, always wanting to possess every man you see! But the men you fancy are all taken! Not to mention the past, you've recently gotten on Zhao Lin's bad side!"

Wang Xiaoxue giggled, saying, "Zhao Lin is a wild and cute she-leopard," and raised her glass to clink it with Jiang Yan's. She looked at a point in the air with a hazy gaze and asked lazily again, "What do you think of Song Chen?"

"..." After a moment of silence, Jiang Yan smiled with a hint of melancholy, "He's very good, a suitable son-in-law for our Jiang family! You know, my grandfather hopes my second brother can be more ambitious in his career, take bold steps forward, and not be afraid of falling..."

"Sounds like something the older generation would say..." Wang Xiaoxue giggled, then continued, "Your family has deep connections, so even if you fall, the government will always help you clean up the mess! To be honest, although Tong Xing's words were crude tonight, they had a point! With the government's backing, it's hard to lose money! Unlike five years ago, when being an official was nerve-wracking, always fearing you'd stand in the wrong place! And you had to choose every few years, which was too much trouble!"

Sighing, Jiang Yan said, "My grandfather evaluated my second brother, saying his constitution is poor and unsuitable for the military, he's dull and unsuitable for politics, and his introversion makes him unsuitable for business... If my second brother doesn't shape up, he'll end up doing some leisurely work in a public institution! On the other hand, my cousins and younger brothers have performed quite well!"

"Too bad... He's already taken! Tsk tsk... And he's much younger than us!" Wang Xiaoxue's expression was very ambiguous, "But, in my opinion, Song Chen doesn't seem to be a pure-hearted man. On the contrary, his heart is far less reliable and upright than his eyes! What do you think?"

"Zhang Ruoxi can't hold onto Song Chen. I wonder if she'll regret Zhao Lin introducing Song Chen to Yang De and us?" After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Yan cut to the heart of the matter, "After all, he has his father's blood in him, and the tendency for men to chase after women once they have money is almost a natural instinct! ——There's no cure for it!"

"If men didn't go bad, where would we bad women find our targets!" Wang Xiaoxue looked at Jiang Yan with a half-smile.

Jiang Yan's face turned red, and she lightly spat, "You want to be bad, but don't drag me into it! Besides, your family is wealthy, why do you need to rack your brains just to seduce a talented man!"

"What good is all the money? It can't go with me when I marry! It all goes to my two younger brothers!" Her eyes flickered, and Wang Xiaoxue smiled, "By the way, did you notice what Song Chen said tonight?"

"Which part?" Jiang Yan took a sip of wine, and the aftertaste quietly colored her dazed and beautiful face, making her look even more charming.

"The small business, a business far surpassing the internet cafe!" Wang Xiaoxue said with a smile, "Don't you think it's strange? His internet cafe is making a fortune, with daily profits enough to buy a computer! Yet, he has only added twenty-four computers so far, and instead of expanding nearby, he started a software company during the internet cafe's peak profit period! Developing two unknown software programs! Do you think he's crazy or what?"

"His mind is very clear! He said long ago that he's pessimistic about the future of the internet cafe and plans to sell it after a while, but he didn't say what business he would choose next..." Jiang Yan recalled Song Chen, who always had a faint smile, and said, "The market for internet cafe software can be optimistically predicted. As for the chat software called QQ, it's a bit hard to understand! Even Shi Tao, who has more experience in company management, privately admitted he can't see the profit potential of QQ. The currently popular ICQ company is only known for burning money, with almost no profit!"

"However, it's this uncertain business that Song Chen just spoke about with such conviction, calling it a business far surpassing the internet cafe. What do you think?" Wang Xiaoxue smiled, revealing a row of white teeth, "We all know that Song Chen is very serious about not caring about the 10% stake in the internet cafe! He has only come a couple of times since the renovation started over half a month ago! Whether Ye Sha meant it or not, her subtle criticism that he's getting something for nothing is a bit unfair to him!"

"Since he's not crazy..." Jiang Yan smiled faintly, understanding Wang Xiaoxue's line of thought, "Then the software company must be Song Chen's true business! With his vision, he must have seen a market that others can't see, so QQ is the core of his business!"

"Regardless, the next time I see him, I'll probe him and invest in Chenxing Computer Systems!" Imagining Song Chen's shocked expression, Wang Xiaoxue smiled like a flower.

Jiang Yan smiled and lightly clapped hands with Wang Xiaoxue, rarely feeling so relaxed, "Sure, I want to see Song Chen's reaction too, count me in!"
