Chapter 53 -53 Being a Secretary Works_1

When Xiao Hu heard what Wang Ye said, he completely relaxed.

He didn’t ask Wang Ye whether he could afford to pay back twenty thousand US dollars, because Wang Ye was still in the business of selling phone cards, and he was said to be doing quite well.

While it might not be substantial earnings, he should still be able to come up with twenty thousand US dollars, right?

At the end of the day, the business of a study abroad agency doesn’t require a huge investment.

Twenty thousand US dollars, to the Hu family, was merely a drop in the ocean…

“Deal! I’ll follow you, Brother Ye. For this investment, I’ll invest in my name. I will have my family wire the money over in the next few days. Once the money arrives, we can get started!” Xiao Hu said decisively.

Back then, international transfers were somewhat challenging.

Usually, they used Western Union, a service which was only available at the Agricultural Bank of China.

After sorting things out with Liu Jun and Xiao Hu, the study abroad agency was pretty much settled.

Now that we have the money, the people, and the location, the next step is to advance quickly.

After dinner, Wang Ye returned to his dormitory following a casual chat.

………

It was past eight o’clock at night.

The dormitory was still quite lively, with people coming and going in the corridors, making phone calls, chatting, smoking, creating a symphony of sounds.

Wang Ye was lying on his bed, leaning against his quilt, engrossed in a book.

Xiao Hei sat at the desk, studying Russian with determination. As for Song Xiaogang, he had run off to deliver phone cards again.

While deeply engrossed in his book, someone dashed into the room.

“Wang Ye!”

Wang Ye turned to see who it was, and it turned out to be Nalan Yaqi. He wondered what she was doing here.

He frowned, stood up, put down his book and said with a smile: “What’s wrong? Is there something you need?”

Nalan Yaqi walked up to Wang Ye and looked up at him, asking: “I heard you’re starting a company, a study abroad agency?”

Wang Ye sighed, totally helpless. How had the news gotten out?

He asked with irritation, “Who told you?”

“Lao Zhou, I ran into him in the corridor. He told me you’re starting a company, a pretty big study abroad agency!” Nalan Yaqi said eagerly.

It turned out to be that guy, Lao Zhou!

However, since this isn’t something to be ashamed of, Wang Ye answered frankly: “Yes, that’s true. However, we’re still in the early stages, we haven’t started yet.”

Nalan Yaqi pouted, shot Wang Ye a resentful look, and said discontentedly: “Isn’t everything already decided? I heard that you’ve found two shareholders and even confirmed the company location. How about I join in? I don’t have much money, but I can spare five or six thousand US dollars.”

So, her rush to come over was because she wanted to invest in the study abroad agency company.

Wang Ye laughed and said: “Did Zhou Yuan also tell you that he wanted to invest but I refused him?”

By saying this, he was indirectly trying to discourage Nalan Yaqi…

After all, why would Wang Ye unnecessarily bring in so many shareholders for a business that was clearly profitable?

Was it to share the money?

The reason he brought Liu Jun and Xiao Hu onboard was because both of them had resources that could help the study abroad agency company progress!

For others, there was no need for their involvement for now.

Even Ruan Xiaozhu, his cousin, Wang Ye hadn’t told, let alone Zhou Yuan and Nalan Yaqi.

Therefore, he had no plans to let Nalan Yaqi get involved.

However, Nalan Yaqi wasn’t willing to give up. She said determinedly: “If you’re starting a company, then you’ll need employees. I can work unpaid. Also, since you’re going to be the boss, shouldn’t you have a secretary or assistant? I bring both manpower and money, isn’t this enough?”

Hearing her say this, Wang Ye joked: “Oh, so you want to be my ‘little secretary’?”

He was clearly joking – the term ‘little secretary’ often implied something other than its literal meaning…

However, what he didn’t expect was that Nalan Yaqi saw his bluff and raised him one!

“As long as you dare, what’s to stop me? I’ll be your little secretary then, but you must promise to let me buy shares!” Nalan Yaqi said with a giggly laugh.

Wang Ye was taken aback, but soon, he understood.

So, Nalan Yaqi had “figured him out”. She believed that he would only take advantage verbally, and that there would be no significant action.

After all, from the time they met until now, Wang Ye really hadn’t shown any intention towards Nalan Yaqi…

So whether Nalan Yaqi was a little secretary or an assistant, it didn’t matter, as she didn’t stand to lose, and as long as she could buy shares in the study abroad agency, her goal would be achieved!

Although Nalan Yaqi couldn’t handle things like this herself, it didn’t prevent her from accurately judging the potential in Wang Ye’s company!

As long as she could seize the opportunity to invest, it could potentially bring her a significant return!

So, after getting information from Zhou Yuan, she quickly went to find Wang Ye, continuously persisting despite Wang Ye’s refusals and challenges.

Wang Ye squinted his eyes, studying Nalan Yaqi intently for quite a while.

It’s hard to deny that, even though she is not tall, and her figure isn’t the kind that curves in all the right places.

But with a closer look, she is rather delicate-looking, with elegant eyebrows and clear eyes, and a perfectly proportioned body.

She’s very innocent, but she always has a way of enticing men.

According to the popular online term from later years, she would be the so-called “Pure Lust” girl.

You know, Wang Ye was actually kind of interested in Nalan Yaqi now…

Being stared at by Wang Ye made Nalan Yaqi feel a bit creeped out, as if she was a “prey” being sized up by a “hunter”.

Wang Ye thought for a bit and showed a smile, “You do have a point. The company does indeed need more hands. You can come and help then!”

Nalan Yaqi was overjoyed. She grabbed Wang Ye’s arm and asked hastily: “So, how much do I have to pay, and how much stake will I have?”

Perhaps she was a bit too excited…Nalan Yaqi was gripping a bit too tightly…

Just then, Song Xiaogang returned. Before he had even entered the room, he saw what was happening and froze at the entrance to the dormitory.

He wasn’t sure whether he should go in…

Wang Ye smoothly extracted his arm, his face revealing nothing.”Five thousand US dollars. You’ll have a five percent stake, but be prepared. The work later on might be pretty hectic. You might even have to travel with me back to China for business trips and such.”

Nalan Yaqi patted her petite chest with assurance, promising: “That’s definitely not an issue! Whatever you need, just order me, Boss!”

Having made her commitment, Nalan Yaqi took out her fat wallet and started counting the money.

Wang Ye was stunned. He genuinely didn’t expect Nalan Yaqi to be this “impatient”.

Did she bring the money?

If he didn’t allow her to buy shares, she is probably going to keep pushing for it…
