OFR – Chapter 151 Increase investment.

Right now, in the living room, the scene was quite striking—a charming, mature woman in her early thirties was clutching the sleeve of a nineteen or twenty-year-old young man, pleading with him.

It looked somewhat ambiguous.

But Mu Bai had no such thoughts at this moment.

Instead, he was focused on the financial report he had just received on QQ.

After carefully reviewing it, he found that the numbers matched Xu Jinhuan’s claims.

The deficit on the books had indeed been covered, leaving only the unpaid employee salaries and office rent as outstanding debts.

After thinking for a moment, Mu Bai looked at Xu Jinhuan and nodded.

“Don’t worry. The 1.6 million I promised you—I will invest as agreed.”

As soon as he said this, relief and joy spread across Xu Jinhuan’s beautiful face.

“Thank you! I knew Xiao Mu was the best! Thank you!”

A woman in her prime—mature, beautiful, and elegant—thanking him like an innocent girl.

For many, this would be hard to resist.

Mu Bai had to admit—he was a little moved.

But that was all.

Just a fleeting feeling, nothing more.

Because when wealth reaches a certain level, when one truly experiences the power of money, it becomes easy to stay composed.

At this moment, Mu Bai glanced at Xu Jinhuan and nodded slightly.

“Hmm, it’s nothing. But let me ask—does your game studio need more funding? If so, I can invest further.”

His tone was polite—very polite.

But that simple, polite question made Xu Jinhuan freeze in shock.

“…What?”

She stared at the young man before her, thinking she had misheard.

“I asked, does your studio need more money?” Mu Bai repeated, his voice calm and steady.

“Yes… we do.”

Xu Jinhuan subconsciously responded in a small voice.

Her already racing heart began pounding even harder.

So much so that she didn’t even realize the double meaning in her words.

Yes, she needed money. Desperately.

Her game studio—the business she had built from scratch—was already a mess.

Under normal circumstances, no one would want to take over.

She had originally planned to use ‘Power and Prestige’ to turn things around, then find a partner to slowly rebuild the studio together.

And truthfully, she was tired—tired of doing everything alone.

She longed for someone to rely on.

But what she never expected was that this person would appear so suddenly, so unexpectedly.

Xiao Mu wanted to invest in her game studio?

This young, unbelievably wealthy man—was going to be her business partner?

Xu Jinhuan was completely stunned.

Not because she thought Mu Bai was unqualified—but because she had always reserved the ‘partner’ position for her future husband.

Yet…

Mu Bai was too young, too mysterious.

So young and mysterious that she didn’t even dare to pursue him.

“Hmm, how much do you need? And how much equity will I get?”

Mu Bai nodded calmly and asked again.

“Three million… I’ll give you 60% of the shares.

Aside from ‘Power and Prestige,’ our studio also has several other running games that generate a decent monthly profit.

And we still have a development team capable of making more…”

Xu Jinhuan had already valued her studio before.

But she was nervous—afraid that Mu Bai might think she was asking too much.

Right now, she was just happy to have a partner.

As for the idea of reserving the co-founder position for her future husband?

That thought had long been abandoned.

However, just as she started explaining, Mu Bai waved his hand slightly, interrupting her.

Then, in a calm and indifferent tone, he said—

“Deal.

That’s 3 million, plus the 1.6 million from earlier—a total of 4.6 million.

But I’ll make it 5 million.

The extra 400,000… consider it a personal gift.“

“…A personal gift?”

Hearing those words, Xu Jinhuan’s face flushed slightly.

For a moment, her mind wandered.

But before she could overthink, Mu Bai’s next words shattered her thoughts.

“Yes. Think of it as my payment to hire you.

I need you to scout other high-potential games like ‘Power and Prestige’ for me.

That won’t be a problem, right?”

“…N-No problem.”

Xu Jinhuan was surprised.

She had thought too much.

The 400,000 yuan ‘gift’ was simply a payment for her expertise.

Realizing this, she felt a little embarrassed about her previous assumptions.

“Good. If there’s no issue, draft a new contract.

Once everything is settled, I won’t be visiting again.

If you find any promising games, just contact me on QQ.”

Mu Bai’s tone was calm and detached.

“Understood! I’ll draft it right away.

But… since you’ll be our majority shareholder, wouldn’t you like to visit our studio?

We have a lot of talented employees—a top-tier development team…”

Xu Jinhuan spoke respectfully, hoping Mu Bai would come by.

She wanted him to see the value of his investment.

After all, it was millions of yuan.

How could an investor not inspect the company?

But before she could finish, Mu Bai’s slightly deep voice interrupted her—

“Haha, no need.”

…No need.

Such a simple, dismissive response.

Xu Jinhuan’s words stuck in her throat.

She looked at the young man before her, calmly sipping his tea, completely unfazed.

At that moment, she finally realized something.

To Mu Bai, millions of yuan meant nothing.

She couldn’t imagine what kind of person could be so indifferent toward such a large investment.

Realizing this, she immediately lowered her posture even further.

Her tone became even more respectful.

“Understood.

I’ll draft the new contract right away.

Xiao Mu, please wait a moment.”
