Manager Qi sighed. “I know, but Miss has invested so much. Without money on hand, I still have some concerns.”
In her previous life, Su Yingxue hadn’t been involved in business, but she understood that to succeed in any endeavor, an equivalent investment was necessary at the beginning. You had to put in as much as you expected to get out.
Since she had committed to let Wu Jinyan do as she pleased, she had to keep up with her.
As for expanding the clinic, she was contemplating whether to do it concurrently.
She sat down with Manager Qi and did some calculations, realizing that simultaneous expansion did carry risks. If something went awry, they might not have enough funds to make timely corrections.

Just as Su Yingxue was pondering this, a God of Fortune suddenly appeared.
Chu Jinling brought a chest of gold and tossed it in front of Su Yingxue. “I heard you were discussing expanding the clinic. Will this be enough?”
Su Yingxue was left utterly astonished.
Manager Qi, looking at the chest of gold, was even more bewildered. “Is this a reward from the Ninth Prince?”
Chu Jinling shook his head and smiled, “My mother gave this to me. Consider it yours!”
After saying this, he threw the gold to Manager Qi, asking him to clear some space, as he wished to speak privately with Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue nodded, and Manager Qi collected the gold.
She patted Chu Jinling on the shoulder, saying, “Thank you so much!”
“This is a reward from my mother, it’s not related to me. If you want to express your gratitude, go thank my mother. She believes you’re someone capable of achieving great things, and there will surely be times when you need money!” Chu Jinling grinned and winked, his admiration for his mother’s judgment evident.
“In the future, when I visit Consort Xiang in the palace, I’ll also pay my respects to the imperial consort. But Ninth Prince, you didn’t come here for no reason today, did you?” Su Yingxue raised an eyebrow.
“Of course, I have a reason! Didn’t we agree before that I’d share half of the earnings from publishing the book with you? I’ve just finished writing the new volume, and I’ve brought it for you to take a look!” Chu Jinling, treating his manuscript as a cherished item, handed it to Su Yingxue.
As Su Yingxue flipped through the pages, he nervously reminded her, “Handle it gently! It hasn’t been sent for printing yet!”
Su Yingxue smirked and joined him in reading.
“Tsk, tsk, Ninth Prince, I must say, you don’t seem suited to be a prince!” Su Yingxue rested her head on her hand, giving Chu Jinling a thorough appraisal.
How did such a talented writer end up in the royal family?

“However, I’ve always treated people sincerely. If I say I’ll give you half of my earnings, then I will! Come to my bookstore in a couple of days, and we’ll share the spoils!”
After flaunting his manuscript, Chu Jinling took his leave.
Su Yingxue saw him off and felt that something was amiss.
She was collaborating with him on writing a book, so how did it turn into sharing the proceeds?
Bah!
Although the wording might not have been the best, two days later, Su Yingxue wrapped up her current tasks and went to his bookstore as agreed.
She had assumed that Chu Jinling was a casual person, and his bookstore would be no different from those on the street.
However, she was in for a surprise. Chu Jinling’s bookstore was not only spacious but also housed many renowned authors.
She entered through the main door. The room was filled with the fragrance of ink. The air was still filled with the freshness of bamboo leaves.
The bookstore was divided into inner and outer halls. The outer hall had dozens of large bookshelves, neatly categorized with various types of books. The store had dedicated staff to prevent book theft and to explain and collect books..
