"Other than entertainment and dining, real estate is also an important income for Sheng Huang. Businesses like resorts, if it can attract a lot of customers, would also bring significant profits; if it can't attract customers, all the injected money would go down the drain. But obviously, you are the former, Ms Kim. I believe that with your capability, you surely will not let all my money go to waste."

Minho declared his stance on this matter with just a few words.

The smile on Jennie's face faded slightly. Her gaze on Minho became more inquisitive. "Why do you...want to help me?"

She and Minho had only met each other a few times. She and Minho did not know each other very well at all.

Was it because she reluctantly took him in, back when they first met, instead of just kicking him out? But Sheng Shi's bankruptcy was a scheme, Minho's down-and-out status was just a pretense. She only did him a small favor, it was no big deal at all.

She was afraid that the only thing that could be used to get close to Minho was just the blood ties between them, but the point was Minho probably did not know about it yet.

If so, why would Minho want to help her?

Today, Minho claimed that his purpose was to cooperate with Kim Enterprise, but everything he said was related to her, especially that sentence that said "I believe in your capability, Ms. Kim". He believed in her capability, not Kim Enterprise's capability. His intention of establishing favorites could not be more obvious!

When Minho heard Jennie's question, his eyes flickered slightly, but there was no difference in his expression. "Ms. Kim, your ability is obvious to all. Investing in a potential stock can often yield more returns than one might think. Moreover, before this, I have also received a lot of help from you, Ms. Kim."

"Help?" Jennie did not think so, "If you are talking about how I let you stay at my store and gave you a shelter for a few months, then I really cannot take that credit, President Lee. After all, to think about it, it was quite rare to be able to hire a person like you to be a handyman in my store, President Lee."

"Pfft ..." Before Jennie could finish, Nam Joo-hyuk, who was standing on the side, burst out in laughter. He put one hand on Minho's shoulder and did not attempt to hide his feeling of schadenfreude. "Handyman? Chen, so in the past few months when you were missing, you had actually become a handyman in other people's store. If word gets out, people may misunderstand that Sheng Huang is going bankrupt like Sheng Shi!"

Minho's expression darkened at his word. "If you don't speak, no one will take you for a mute."

Nam Joo-hyuk could not say anything to retort. Although he said nothing more, the way he looked at Minho now carried a few hints of ridicule.

Minho swept a cold glance at him and did not continue to pursue the matter. He said in a deep voice, "You taking me in was one of the reasons, of course, but I have another main reason, it's because of... Suzy."

If Jennie had not given Suzy and her sister a chance when they were repeatedly turned away by others and at the end of their tether, they might have ended up in some other nook and cranny in the world and would never have met him.

If Jennie had not agreed to let him stay after Suzy picked him up from somewhere, in spite of not knowing his background, he would not have been able to stay in Jennie's store for so long, which had allowed him to avoid the eyes and ears, while creating opportunities for him and Suzy to spend time alone.

Regardless of Jennie's intentions, from all aspects, she could have been considered a matchmaker for him and Suzy.

What's more, during the months he stayed in Jennie's store, Minho had already seen that although Jennie did not go to the store often, those people inside the store were very close to her, especially Suzy and her sister, who simply treated her as a family, which obviously showed that Jennie had been good to them.

For the sake of this, for the sake of the person he loved cared about Jennie, now that she had some trouble, it was only right for him to help her out. Besides, frankly speaking, it was not just a favor, it was mutually beneficial for both parties.

He was a businessman. He had no reason to let go of the profits in front of him.

Jennie listened to Minho's explanation, her eyes flickered slightly. She teased, "Oh? In that case, can I consider this cooperation between Kim Enterprise and Sheng Huang as a betrothal gift from you to Suzy?"

Minho was a little stunned. A trace of different expressions finally appeared on his cold face.

But he quickly covered it up and said with a hesitant expression, "Has she...been well lately?"

They both knew who the 'she' he was talking about was. Jennie studied Minho. Although Minho's face was calm, she still saw a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

Her heart was mixed with sadness and Leo. She felt Leo because this guy really liked Suzy, he was afraid someone else would snatch his wife away when he was gone; the sadness was in his heart, the entire Kim family was probably not as important as Suzy.

Staring at Minho's poker face that was hiding his feelings, Jennie suddenly felt like teasing him. She wanted to see another different expression on his face.

Jennie lightly coughed. It was like she suddenly remembered something, and she cast a sympathetic glance at Minho. "She? You mean Suzy? She has been doing well, but..."

"What?"

"But it seems that a nice rich boy has taken a fancy on her lately. He keeps giving her flowers and jewelry. And he keeps inviting her to have dinner together and so on."

As Jennie expected, Minho's face darkened instantly upon hearing she said that. The atmosphere inside the office suddenly changed.

Even Nam Joo-hyuk, who was standing beside Minho, was affected, despite having said nothing. He took a few steps back in fear following the sudden emergence of strong hostility from someone. His beautiful foxlike eyes narrowed slightly, filling with a trace of interest.

However, Jennie was not affected by Minho's fury at all, as she continued to add fuel to fire. "Although it seems like Suzy has already had someone she likes, it is a one-sided love after all. Now that she is being courted by such a wealthy, considerate, and handsome man, any girl would have fallen for him. I think..."

Before Jennie could finish, Minho's furious voice that had a hint of a possible outburst of rage had already come from the side. " Who said it is a one-sided love?"

Jennie raised her eyebrows and smiled. "You did not even confess your love to her. What is it if it's not one-sided love?"

Minho's face was as gloomy as night. The way he looked at Jennie was murderous. "You did not tell her my message?"

"What message?" Oh, you mean the message of asking her to wait for you? Why should I tell her? President Lee, when it comes to relationships, no one is superior to the other, and no one has the obligation to wait for the love that might just be a dream. Relationships are never a one-person affair, but it requires two people to work together.."
