Jennie's eyebrows rose after hearing Qiao Yu's promise.
She was already comfortable with her current financial position because it was allowing her to pursue her ambitions freely and independently.She didn't really have that much of a desire to become a billionaire on a global scale—at least, at the moment. That wasn't her goal from the beginning, anyway.
Her goal was to have enough resources to pursue her dreams and to live a life of freedom and independence on her own terms. Then Lisa came along. Her life plans had to change a bit to include him now, too.
However, it seemed that her personal financial manager had a different idea about what was enoughresources. In his definition, it was to become a billionaire on a global scale.
And she wasn't against it. In fact, she liked it!
She nodded in approval. "Good. This way, I'll have more dowry when I marry Lisa. Not that he minds whether I bring in dowry or not. Mr. Qiao, go ahead and do what you think is needed."
After receiving her permission, Qiao Yu immediately focused on making Jennie many times wealthier than she already was. He invested her wealth using the Cross Academy's exclusive business network.
Compared to the world-level investors like Sir Jian and even Lisa, she was still considered a pipsqueak based on her level of wealth.
"It's time to change that. She'll surely become the next powerful dragon who will astound the entire business world. And one of the key figures who will make that happen is me, Qiao Yu! Mwahahaha!"
He cackled in excitement and rubbed his hands together, looking very much like an evil villain plotting world domination.

The news about Jisoo and her friend Chaeng rejecting Kim Industries' job offers after their graduation to work instead for Jennie's company spread among the entire Kim clan.
In addition to this, they confirmed that Kim Industries already started shipping for Jennie's company. And they weren't some small-scale shipments either. These were big shipments from different parts of the world being delivered to her mysterious company.
Jufang called for a secret meeting at his home. Most of the elders and other key relatives gathered together to discuss Jennie's recent rise to prominence and her potential impact on the Kim family.
The meeting was secret in the sense that the main family and the branch families supporting it weren't informed about the gathering.
The most powerful elders, Jufang and Meng, led the meeting. It lasted for several hours until the sky turned dark.
After the meeting, the participants left Kim Jufang's home. Discontent was obvious in their expressions. It seemed that the meeting didn't go well.
One of the participants during the meeting, Xiao, drove away in a hurry. Less than an hour later, he arrived at Jay and Ning's home.
Inside the living room, Xiao relayed everything that happened during the secret meeting to Jay and his mother, Ning.
"Elder Jufang wants the clan to support Young Miss Ruby to become the next head of the family and Kim Industries. He says that she's currently the best candidate to succeed your father because of her recent accomplishments, not to mention that she's engaged to be married to Sir Jian's grandson. This means that she'll also become the next Madam Kwon. Elder Jufang's plan is to make Young Miss both Madam Kwon and the Kim family head. This will ensure that our Kim clan will ascend to the same level of status as the Kwon family."
"What did you say?! They want that little slut to become the next head?!! Have they gone crazy?!!!" Ning shrieked at the top of her lungs, looking absolutely furious.
