The daughter of a general is so cool in the novel about a wealthy family

Shi Lu, who had been neglected since entering the Shi family, was suddenly stimulated and did not hear the second half of the sentence clearly.

Seeing no response, Yuan Shu couldn't help but frown. When she looked up, she found that the person next to her had fallen into a daze.

Yuan Shu realized that he really had to train these kids well. During military training, no one in the army dared to be distracted!

In that case, she will start making a complete training plan tomorrow, and she will even train her current body well.

Just as he finished his thought, he looked up and saw Tan Jing walking towards him with a palm-sized cocktail. This scene was a bit weird.

"Madam, I didn't expect today's banquet to be so successful. I really admire you."

Shi Lu knew the relationship between the Shi family and the Tan family. Although they were not enemies, they were not in the same camp. Tan Jing's inexplicable and annoying concern must have some intention!

He took a step forward and stood between Yuan Shu and Tan Jing, "Mr. Tan, what can I do for you?"

Tan Jing didn't care about Shi Lu at all. He looked down on the second young master of the Shi family. In his eyes, Shi Lu was just a lowly actor who was not worthy of talking to him.

He looked past Shi Lu and looked directly at Yuan Shu, "I came to toast Mrs. Shi, but Mrs. Shi hid behind you. Is this how the Shi family entertains guests?"

Shi Lu didn't care that Tan Jing looked down on him, but when he heard Tan Jing say that about Yuan Shu, he felt unhappy.

Just when he was about to retort, Yuan Shu raised his hand and gently touched his arm, then he took a step back, exposing Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu raised his eyes and looked at Tan Jing, with a smile on his face, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Mr. Tan, do you know what hiding means? I hide when I encounter an uninvited guest. Mr. Tan, do you know whether you are an uninvited guest or not?"

Tan Jing was speechless. He had forgotten that this woman was extraordinary. He had fought with her for so many rounds but had never won. He was really asking for trouble.

Tan Jing bent down slightly to let the two get closer, and then apologized, "Madam, you are still so humorous. This glass is for you. I said something wrong, please accept the punishment."

After saying that, he finished the cocktail in the glass in one gulp.

"Madam, could you please sit over there for a while so we can talk about Yuan'an?"

Shi Lu frowned, "Mr. Tan, if you have anything to say, just tell me. My sister-in-law is tired, I'm afraid she..."

Tan Jing ignored him and interrupted him, "When did the Second Young Master become the head of the Shi family?"

"You!" Shi Lu was indeed very low-key in the Shi family.

However, Yuan Shu retorted coldly: "He is my family, so his words must be taken seriously. Do we have to listen to outsiders about our family affairs?"

Shi Lu was stunned. He had always been sensitive, but he never showed it in front of others.

It's not that he doesn't know what outsiders say. As an illegitimate child, an unfavored illegitimate child of the Shi family, he always pretends not to care about other people's ridicule and sarcasm so that they would shut up.

Yuan Shu gave him enough respect tonight, which made him suddenly feel that it was not bad to be protected by someone.

Tan Jing knew that Shi Lu was out of favor, so he was sarcastic, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to protect him so much. This made him wonder if there was something wrong with his investigation of the Shi family in the past few months.

He felt a little embarrassed and could only smile awkwardly, then forced himself to ask Yuan Shu to find a place to have a good chat.

Yuan Shu didn't want to go at first because the two families didn't have a good relationship, and Shi Lu had scolded him several times himself, so there was no need to be polite to him.

But when Tan Jing mentioned Yuan'an, Yuan Shu was curious about what he wanted to say.

After Yuan Shu brought Shi Lu to the round glass table in the corridor on the second floor, he looked at Tan Jing and said straight to the point, "Master Tan, please feel free to say whatever you want to say."

Tan Jing also became serious. "Yuan'an was in trouble. Although the Shi family solved it in time, the capital chain was affected. I have a project that can quickly replenish funds. I wonder if the Shi family is interested."

"Please speak." Yuan Shu made a gesture of invitation.

The lighting on the second floor is dim, and the seats are beautifully arranged. There is a night light on each glass table, covered with a special glass cover, emitting a comfortable glow.

The light cast shadows on Yuan Shu's face, her eyes appeared deeper, her thin eyebrows appeared longer, and everything around her seemed eclipsed.

Yuan Shu listened, closed his eyes, and slowly opened them before saying, "I understand what you mean, but the Shi family will not cooperate with the Tan family on this matter. Thank you for your kindness."

After being rejected, Tan Jing was a little indignant, "Madam, are you too hasty?"

Yuan Shu lowered her eyes, smoothed the hem of her skirt, and said calmly: "If you want to do this project, there will definitely be no problem with funding. My family has other arrangements, and now is really not the best time to cooperate."

"But..." Tan Jing wanted to continue.

Yuan Shu changed the subject, "Are you satisfied with the fruits I gave you before?"

"Satisfied!" The topic changed so quickly that before Tan Jing could react, Yuan Shu had already chased after her. "Before you leave, prepare another box for Mr. Tan. Please accept it."

Tan Jing was depressed. He had been in the business world for so many years, but he had never felt so helpless as when facing Yuan Shu. This instantly aroused his desire to win. He thought to himself, "Yuan Shu, just wait and see..."

The Shi family is very powerful. Initially, they focused on overseas areas, and later expanded into the domestic market, where they achieved remarkable results. They even have connections in the political circles, and have a close relationship with the Li family.

The Shi family has several mortal enemies. The Jiang family and the Xu family are two families that were not invited to this party. Their relationship with the Tan family can only be considered relatively neutral.

The reason why Tan Jing approached Yuan Shu to discuss joining forces this time was because Shi Xiao had disappeared and was not in the country. He felt that the Shi family was leaderless, and Yuan Shu was a woman, so how could she understand business? If they joined forces, it would be easier for the Shi family.

Moreover, this project is neither big nor small. Even if the Tan family and the Shi family reach a cooperation, it does not mean that the two families can live in harmony. The Tan family can still remain neutral.

Tan Jing's plan was very cunning.

Originally, the Tan family was also invited to this cocktail party. Tan Jing explained to the Jiang family and the Xu family that Yuan Shu wanted to cooperate with Tan Jing, which also explained why Tan Jing came twice and received two boxes of fruit.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu refused, which made Tan Jing very embarrassed.

After today's banquet, I'm afraid the entire upper class will be talking about it tomorrow.

After Tan Jing left, Yuan Shu asked Shi Lu: "You have also heard about this project, what do you think?"

Shi Lu was puzzled, "What do you mean? Didn't you say you wouldn't cooperate with them? Why are you still thinking about this?"

Yuan Shu smiled brightly, "I said the Shi family would not cooperate with them, but I didn't say we were not interested."

Yuan Shu explained: "The cooperation between the two families involves too many complicated things. I can't make this decision easily. However, this project is indeed very profitable. If we invest in it under another identity, it may bring in considerable income."

Shi Lu had been dating Yuan Shu for such a long time, but this was the first time he saw her so interested in something. He asked, "Are you short of money? Isn't the money from the Shi family enough for you to spend?"
