After Gu'er rode away on her bicycle, Sun Jiaming clenched his fists.
He had gone into the city a few days ago to handle a property deed, but he hadn't gone to see Gu'er. His business partner had asked if he was interested in investing more, as they were planning to expand the business.
Sun Jiaming had said he would think about it. With his current dividends, he didn't have to worry about food or clothing. But investing more meant taking on risk. If the business lost money, it wouldn't be a small sum; it could take years to earn it all back.
But risk also meant opportunity. He had done his research and looked into the market. Seeing Gu'er today sealed his determination. He would invest more. He had a family to support. He was going to buy a house in the city—a big one. He would bring his grandmother to live there, and when the time was right, he would make sure Gu'er married him in grand style.
