After he heard this, anger and aloofness flashed across his eyes. There was even a hint of coldness in his usual gentle voice. “There are so many grandchildren in the Cheng family. My dad’s ranking in the family is ambiguous, so it’s inevitable that he would be pushed aside.”
“But still, you can’t do this! They are really showing no respect to me!”
Cheng Sizhe: “…”
Cheng Sizhe pacified him nicely. “You can only blame your grandson for being too capable. The Xiao family is difficult to deal with. Since we can’t hand over the eldest grandson of the Cheng family, the next in line would be me. But my grandfather has already shown you some respect by agreeing to my bet.”
“Hmph! So what if he agreed? You don’t even have primary capital and they want you to earn a hundred million in a year? Dream on! Does he think that money falls from the sky?”
Cheng Sizhe could sense that he was going to start scolding his grandfather incessantly. Hence, he changed the subject quickly. “Alright, Grandpa. I’m having a meeting soon. Bye~”
After saying this, he ended the call straight away before shaking his head.

In the common space outside, Zhuang Nainai looked at Cheng Sizhe with wide eyes.
$200,000! Where was she going to get $200,000?!
Just as she was in a dilemma, she heard Xu Dazhi say softly, “If only I owned an apartment, I can then get a collateral loan.”
Loan? Apartment?!
As if she had been enlightened, she jumped up all of a sudden.
Exactly!
The apartment that Si Zhengting bought for her was still under her name!
She had all the documents!
As long as she was to use her apartment as collateral, she would surely be able to get a $200,000 loan.
At the thought of this, Zhuang Nainai stood up immediately and rushed out.
The procedures for getting a loan was very simple nowadays. Zhuang Nainai could settle it in one day. The next day, $200,000 was transferred to her account.
She handed the bank card to Cheng Sizhe and said, “There is $200,000 in here. Use it to overcome the company crisis first.”
Cheng Sizhe looked at the bank card and raised his brows in confusion.
Zhuang Nainai continued, “This was caused by me, so I can’t just sit and watch. You have to take the money.”
Slightly dazed, Cheng Sizhe looked at Zhuang Nainai intently. “You know what kind of situation the company is in. Aren’t you afraid that your $200,000 would go down the drain?”
Zhuang Nainai shook her head. “Firstly, I am very confident in the company’s future. Secondly, I am also confident in you.”
I am also confident in you.
These words moved Cheng Sizhe unknowingly.
He had always had many friends. However, in crucial times, everyone would only care about their own families. They wouldn’t dare to help him.
He had never thought that this woman, whom he had helped only twice, would stand up for him in such a crucial time.
To them, $200,000 was just a figure. However, he knew what that sum of money meant to Zhuang Nainai.
Cheng Sizhe glanced at the card. Suddenly, he stood up and smiled as he lifted his hand to receive the bank card. “If so, congratulations on the successful investment in our company. You are now our company’s new shareholder.”
Zhuang Nainai’s eyes widened. “Huh?”
Cheng Sizhe extended his hand toward her again. “My company doesn’t accept any help. We only accept investments, so now, you hold 30% of the company’s shares. How do you feel?”
Zhuang Nainai had not expected herself to receive such a benefit. Dazed, she extended her hand. Just as their hands were about to touch, a glass of water was placed on Cheng Sizhe’s hand suddenly. He noticed Xu Dazhi standing beside him. “President Cheng, please have some water.”
