Of course, "profitable" didn’t mean generating revenue for herself, but rather creating a source of income for the orphanage.
That way, the orphanage would no longer have to survive on just the small amount of money from charitable donations.
However, to achieve this, they would have to put in a lot of effort during the orphanage’s expansion.
After confirming the deadline for their architectural drawings in the group chat, Yun Zijin closed the chat window.
When she left her room, Wang Minli came out of the kitchen with a dessert. "Miss, this is the strawberry mousse the kitchen just made. Please, have a taste."
It was rare for Yun Zijin to stay home, so Wang Minli had the kitchen prepare a lot of food for her.
"Just leave it there. I’ll eat it in a bit."
Yun Zijin was looking up plane tickets on her phone. Lu Yunque and the others had all agreed that they needed to conduct a site survey before producing the drawings.
Since it was her idea, Yun Zijin naturally had to see it through. She had already said in the group chat that she would join them for the site survey.
To get the drawings done as quickly as possible, Lu Yunque and the others unanimously decided to leave the next day.
DING-DONG!
While Yun Zijin was still looking at tickets, Lu Yunque sent her a WeChat message.
Yun Zijin casually tapped it open.
"L: Miss Yun, regarding the tickets to G City, would you like me to have my assistant book yours too? That way, we can pick seats together, which would be more convenient."
The issue Lu Yunque mentioned was indeed valid. However, Yun Zijin would definitely be taking bodyguards back to G City, so she didn’t necessarily have to sit with him and his team.
So, Yun Zijin sent a message politely declining, only asking which flight they had chosen.
As long as it was the same flight, it didn’t matter where she sat.
After confirming the flight, Yun Zijin directly booked first-class and business-class tickets.
Including her bodyguards, there were eight people in her party. First class might not have that many seats, so the rest would have to settle for business class.
**********
On the day of the site survey in G City, Yun Zijin arrived at Dijing International Airport on time with her seven bodyguards.
Entering the VIP lounge, she saw Lu Yunque’s group of four and their assistants.
"Zijing is here! Come, have a seat!"
The moment Li Yuexing saw Yun Zijin, his inner sycophant couldn’t help but emerge.
He had already returned the Ferrari LaFerrari, but now he had his eyes on her Sielle Tuatara.
However, Li Yuexing himself felt too embarrassed to ask, since he’d be borrowing her cars so frequently. He hadn’t brought it up.
Yun Zijin noticed, but she had no intention of bringing it up herself.
’If you want to borrow my car, you should at least ask for it yourself. You can’t expect me to offer it up on a silver platter.’
"You all got here so early?"
Yun Zijin had thought she was already plenty early.
"This is our first time working with you, Zijing. Of course we have to be eager."
Among them, only the Lu Family had, by a stroke of luck, crossed paths with Yun Zijin before, resulting in her becoming the Lu Group’s landlord.
"Miss Yun, good morning."
"Good morning!"
...
Yun Zijin exchanged greetings with the others, and then they all sat down in their own seats and proceeded to... play on their phones.
Lu Yunque, however, wasn’t playing on his phone. He was clearly working on a tablet, and Yun Zijin unconsciously lowered her voice when she spoke.
Fortunately, it was soon time to board. Yun Zijin and Zero One were in first class, while the remaining six bodyguards were in business class.
As for Lu Yunque’s group, they were also in first class, while their assistants were in business class.

「G City Airport.」
Knowing Yun Zijin was coming back, Liao Zhuxiu had arrived at the airport early to wait. She kept peering toward the arrivals gate, afraid she would miss her.
The flight from Dijing to G City took about four hours. Liao Zhuxiu had been waiting from eight in the morning until noon, when she finally spotted Yun Zijin.
"Zijin!"
Liao Zhuxiu waved frantically in Yun Zijin’s direction, calling out her name.
Hearing someone call her name, Yun Zijin looked in the direction of the voice. fгeewebnovёl.com
Fortunately, she had good eyesight and quickly spotted Liao Zhuxiu, who was nearly swallowed by the crowd.
Escorted by her bodyguards, Yun Zijin quickly made her way to Liao Zhuxiu.
"Aunt Liao!"
Liao Zhuxiu stared at Yun Zijin, who looked like a completely different person, and was stunned for a moment.
’Is this still the Yun Zijin I remember? She seems completely different from the girl in my memories.’
It could be said that aside from her face, there was no trace of her former self left in Yun Zijin.
’Perhaps money really can transform a person, both inside and out.’
"You’ve gotten fairer, and your spirit looks so much better! Dijing really is the capital, after all. It’s a place that nurtures people."
Seeing Yun Zijin like this, Liao Zhuxiu was undoubtedly happy.
The old Yun Zijin had carried too many burdens, and so she always had an air of gloom about her. But the Yun Zijin of today had completely transformed into the image of a pampered young lady.
If you didn’t know her age, you could say she was a high school student and people would believe you.
"Aunt Liao, I have a few friends with me. I invited them here to handle the renovations for our orphanage. I haven’t decided which firm to use yet, so if they ask you any questions, just answer them truthfully."
Fearing that Liao Zhuxiu might get nervous if Lu Yunque and his team questioned her alone, Yun Zijin gave her a heads-up.
In any case, she held all the cards.
"Alright, I understand."
After coming to terms with it herself, Liao Zhuxiu now had a very clear understanding of the fact that Yun Zijin was wealthy.
Since Yun Zijin was rich and willing to improve the orphanage’s conditions, Liao Zhuxiu was, of course, a hundred percent behind her.
Lu Yunque and the others followed behind Yun Zijin and her bodyguards. Once Yun Zijin finished speaking with Liao Zhuxiu, they stepped forward. "Hello, Auntie. We’re friends of Zijin. My surname is Lu, and my given name is Yunque. You can just call me Xiao Lu."
Lu Yunque was the first to step forward and introduce himself. But "Xiao Lu"...
Yun Zijin gave Lu Yunque a complicated look. ’Probably no one has ever called him "Xiao Lu" before. That’s quite a sacrifice.’
"Hello, Aunt Liao! My name is Li Yuexing. You can call me Xiao Li or Little Cheng!"
"Hello, Aunt Liao! I’m Fu Ze..."
"Aunt Liao..."
Sheng Hao and Fu Ze also stepped forward one by one to introduce themselves. As for the assistants who came with them, they didn’t introduce themselves for the time being.
"Yes, yes, of course. You’re all good kids. I’ve already had someone at home prepare a meal. If you don’t mind, why don’t you come back to the orphanage with me to eat today?"
Liao Zhuxiu knew that Yun Zijin was back on important business and that others would be with her, but she hadn’t expected several young men.
"Not at all, not at all! The airplane food was terrible. I’d be delighted to get a free meal from you!"
Li Yuexing showed no signs of false modesty, accepting the offer immediately.
In his view, since Yun Zijin respected Liao Zhuxiu so much, it was definitely the right move for them to respect her too.
Besides, he was quite looking forward to eating at the orphanage. In all his years, he had never eaten a meal in one before.
