Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shi Bin was very angry. He was sleeping soundly in the morning when he was suddenly woken up. He was about to flare up, but when he heard that it was Yuan Shu who woke him up, his fear of the whip forced him to get out of bed obediently.

Now, he sat opposite Yuan Shu with a reluctant expression, but he didn’t dare to say anything.

It wasn’t until Yuan Shu finished reading today’s financial newspaper and folded it before placing it by the table that she took another sip of milk and glanced at Shi Bin indifferently as she asked, “How much do you know about venture capital?”

Shi Bin wasn’t fully awake yet. As he sat at the table and looked at the buns in front of him, he felt as if he had double vision and kept yawning. After he sat up straight, he nodded repeatedly.

When Yuan Shu suddenly spoke, he was startled and opened his eyes abruptly. “Why are you suddenly asking me this? Don’t tell me you woke me up so early in the morning to test me on this?”

Yuan Shu sat up straight and leaned her legs together. After a while, she looked like she was serious about learning more as she asked, “1 have some questions about venture capital that I want to ask you for guidance on.”

Shi Bin was flattered that she actually knew how to use the word “guidance”.

Shi Bin was a slacker who fought in school, quarreled with his classmates, and even fought with Tan Zhao to the point that he got sent to the police station. These things were known to everyone, so everyone overlooked Shi Bin’s outstanding grades.

Although he was reckless and slow-witted at times, he was extremely smart. Since he was young, he had been very sensitive to numbers. He could memorize Pi to the thirtieth place after decimal points, and he even got first place in the entire major in advanced mathematics.

As the most prestigious major in A University, not just anyone could get into the finance major. No matter how good their connections were, A University wouldn’t accept profligate people. Therefore, Shi Bin got in on his own.

Perhaps because his reputation as a profligate son was too resounding, even if he sat in the first row during class and listened to the teacher’s lecture seriously, the teacher only felt that he was daydreaming and didn’t listen to class.

But that didn’t stop him from being interested in class. Despite his talent, he wasted most of his time having fun, so much so that everyone overlooked his abilities.

While everyone was actively looking for internships and hoping to get into the best venture capital company, Shi Bin was thinking about how to spend money to have fun and cause trouble for Tan Zhao.

Being rebellious, the more Shi Bin was urged, the more he wanted to show his incompetence. Hence, every time his brother, Shi Xiao, told him to study hard, he would act flippant.

He could feel that Yuan Shu didn’t put on airs when she said the word “guidance”. She showed respect for him. This was something Shi Bin had never felt in the Shi family.

As Shi Xiao was too outstanding, he was like a shining diamond in the Shi family. Everyone praised him at various social occasions. Although there were more or less some flattery, their admiration for Shi Xiao’s ability was real.

As a result, no one cared about the development of the other children of the Shi family. In fact, no matter how outstanding they were, their brilliance would be overshadowed by Shi Xiao’s brilliance. Therefore, the three of them only needed to be obedient and be protected by their elder brother. They didn’t need to be outstanding. They only needed to be flowers in a greenhouse to show the prosperity of the Shi family.

Therefore, when Yuan Shu asked Shi Bin about venture capital, he only hesitated for a moment before he started to tell her everything he understood.

After Yuan Shu listened to him seriously for nearly an hour, her impression of him began to change.

Initially, Yuan Shu didn’t have much expectations when she asked Shi Bin about venture capital. She only wanted to obtain some basic knowledge before asking the professionals.

She didn’t expect Shi Bin’s interpretation to be so unique. Yuan Shu couldn’t help but become interested. She would definitely learn a lot if she listened to a finance lecture taught by a professor from A University.

Yuan Shu listened to Shi Bin seriously. From time to time, she would nod and ask questions. When she saw that Shi Bin was thirsty, she would instruct Wu Yan to serve tea..
