"But we just finished competing. If I bring it up again, she probably won’t agree, right?"
Sheng Tian thought Fu Li had a point, but then again, Yun Zijin probably wouldn’t be stupid enough to agree to a talent competition with her.
"Today isn’t a good time to bring it up. We’ll figure something out in a few days."
Fu Li didn’t want Sheng Tian’s yacht to be won by Yun Zijin. After all, she was still hoping to borrow it from Sheng Tian for her birthday to throw a yacht party exclusively for young people.
If Sheng Tian’s yacht was gone, all her birthday plans for this year would be for nothing.
Sheng Tian thought Fu Li made sense, so she stopped worrying about it. She seemed to brighten up considerably.
Yun Zijin was oblivious to their plans. Once inside, she finally escaped the mosquitoes.
Yun Zijin sat on the living room sofa. Lu Yunque sat down next to her, but he kept a distance of about twenty centimeters between them.
"Oh, right. On the phone yesterday, you mentioned giving back to the university. Can I ask what the specific project is?"
Except for weekends, Yun Zijin had to spend money every day. ’If I can find a real money pit,’ she thought, ’I’d be more than happy to get in on it.’
"There’s nothing to hide. The Lu Family plans to build a comprehensive laboratory building for Dijing University."
"A laboratory building? Does that mean the Lu Family will also cover all the necessary machines, equipment, and so on?"
Just constructing a building wouldn’t be difficult for anyone present. But if it was a laboratory building, then all the various experimental equipment would not be a small sum.
Even a company like the Lu Family would have to carefully consider the cost.
"Of course. Otherwise, you couldn’t call it a laboratory building."
Dijing University was a school with a long history, and much of its lab equipment was quite old. The Lu Family’s initiative this time was, for Dijing University, a much-needed blessing.
"Is the money the Lu Family is investing enough? How about you let me in on it?"
’This is a perfectly good way to spend money,’ Yun Zijin thought.
’But I wonder if Lu Yunque would accept my investment method—transferring a few million to the project every day?’
"Zijing, do you even know how much the Lu Family is planning to invest in this building for Dijing University? And you just want to jump in."
Li Yuexing chuckled, thinking Yun Zijin was oversimplifying things.
"How much could it be?"
If there was one thing Yun Zijin didn’t lack, it was money.
"This much!"
Li Yuexing made a "V" sign with his fingers.
"Should I guess high or guess low?"
Yun Zijin secretly calculated in her head how much investment would be needed for a laboratory building, including the purchase of all the equipment.
"Take a wild guess."
"Two billion?"
’As expected of you, Zijing. You guessed it exactly!’
Li Yuexing gave Yun Zijin a thumbs-up.
"That’s not so bad. I won’t compete with the Lu Family, how about I just casually add an investment of, say, one billion?"
She was still a student. ’If the university knew I donated one billion,’ she mused, ’I wonder if they’d let me skip my attendance requirement for my final year.’
The course load for senior year wasn’t heavy, and many were electives. Yun Zijin felt it wouldn’t make a difference if she didn’t attend classes.
’As long as I can hand in my graduation thesis on time, it should be fine.’
Hearing Yun Zijin casually mention one billion, Sheng Tian whipped her head around to stare at her.
She knew Yun Zijin was rich, but she didn’t know she was *this* rich.
’Can someone really just pull out one billion so casually?’
They were both twenty-one, yet she couldn’t even come up with one hundred million.
"If you want to invest, of course I’d welcome it."
An investment of two billion was actually just barely enough. It was very likely they would face a funding shortfall later on.
If Yun Zijin really added another billion, the funds would be more than sufficient.
Yun Zijin could even produce six billion, so Lu Yunque had no doubt she was serious about the one billion.
