The Sky Darkened by a Canopy

In the private office area.

Zhao Yachian and Lin Mu Xue stood close together, both Tall and Long Legs and beautiful, yet they appeared timid and hesitant.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Luo Bin gently shook hands and said in a friendly tone, "Let's sit down and talk. Ms. Zhao, don't be nervous, we're all family."

That's what he said, but he himself didn't believe it.

One is Su Yu's agent of many years, and the president and shareholder of Tang Zong Entertainment.

The other is a close confidant of Director Jin, a member of the Family Office's management team.

He absolutely did not believe that two busy people wasting their time coming here was without some deeper purpose.

Zhao Yachian nodded and followed Luo Bin and the others to the reception area, carefully sitting down on the Leather Sofa.

His gaze fell on Xiao Xue beside him.

The man and two women opposite her each exuded an aura that seemed to stretch for several meters, and she didn't know what to say, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

This is the pillar of strength I invited; today's situation still depends on Xiao Xue.

Lin Mu Xue placed her bag on her lap and tried to keep her tone steady as she said, "My name is Lin Mu Xue, and I'm the signing witness that Qianqian invited."

"Hello, Madam Lin." Luo Bin nodded calmly. "Please wait a moment while I retrieve the Trust Document."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the safe next to him.

Zhao Yachian's hands and feet were sweating nervously, and her lips were tightly pursed. She felt that the two women were looking at her in a strange way.

Lin Mu Xue glanced around furtively, her gaze landing on Qin Yingxue's location, and her heart trembled.

Hermès Birkin 25, square frame, matte crocodile leather, gold Birkin, market price over 500,000 RMB.

Chanel's new summer haute couture collection is priced around 300,000 yuan.

Bulgari Serpenti head and tail earrings and necklace, 80,000.

Then look at the Richard Miller RM07-01 snowflake diamond on her wrist, worth over 2 million.

Lin Mu Xue opened her mouth slightly, her eyes widening.

Every single item she wore was a luxury item that she absolutely loved and had seen countless times.

Their eyes met, and Qin Yingxue gave her a playful smile.

Lin Mu Xue quickly looked away, somewhat afraid to look at the other person.

Compared to the other person, my outfit really doesn't look good.

This so-called investment advisor is practically the image of herself in her dreams!

Lin Mu Xue felt extremely uncomfortable being face-to-face with him.

The sound of footsteps rang out, Luo Bin strolled over, placing a thick file bag in front of Zhao Yachian.

He then sat up straight on the sofa, straightened his cuffs, and fastened one of the suit buttons on his waist.

He said earnestly, "In addition to the beneficiary agreement, there are also trust management rules, risk disclosure statements, and other materials here, which detail the management and operation of the trust property."

As Mr. Tang's representative and legal advisor, I will provide you with comprehensive legal assistance today. Please feel free to ask me any questions.

When he gets into work mode, his expression is serious and focused, his eyes are confident and calm, and his posture is upright and powerful.

With her meticulously groomed appearance and sophisticated attire, she perfectly embodies the image of an elite lawyer.

"Thank you, Lawyer Luo!" Zhao Yachian said sincerely. Hearing that he was the lawyer sent by Tang Song to help her, she felt more relaxed.

Qin Yingxue leaned forward slightly, her long, slender fingers pressing against the file bag.

After Zhao Yachian looked at her, she Wei Xiao and said, "I am an investment advisor and senior executive at Slover Trust. As one of the beneficiaries of this trust, you have the right to know and the right to express your opinions. If you have any questions or are dissatisfied, you can communicate with me directly."

She emphasized the phrase "one of the beneficiaries," and her eyes held a strange meaning.

However, this action was clearly an attempt to wink at the blind man.

The naive Zhao Yachian was completely unaware of anything amiss; on the contrary, she felt that this older woman was a nice person, not as cold as she appeared.

She quickly replied, "Thank you, Sister Qin."

Qin Yingxue, who was looking directly into her eyes, twitched at the corner of her mouth, feeling that things were not quite as she had imagined.

Director Jin seems to be overthinking things!

Looking at the file folder in front of her, Zhao Yachian's heart beat faster and faster.

I carefully opened the file bag and took out a thick stack of documents.

After a quick glance, his face immediately fell.

There's so much content here, and most of it is in English.

Although Beauty Zhao is a proper high school graduate, heavens behold, she really can't understand these English passages!

I can only barely understand some simple words.

Stealing a glance at the three extraordinary-looking people opposite her, Zhao Yachian bit her lip, but finally turned her gaze to the person beside her.

He placed the thick stack of English documents in front of her and said in a low voice, "Xiao Xue, you're a professional, can you help me take a look?"

Lin Mu Xue grunted and reluctantly flipped through the pages, her eyes showing a hint of helplessness.

She can't even understand this in Chinese, let alone in English!

I came here this time out of curiosity about what Qianqian's trust is like, and also to show off and impress others.

She never expected to encounter such a situation. Although she was quite intelligent, she couldn't keep up the act when facing these true elites.

Pretending to flip through the documents, Lin Mu Xue shifted her position and said with an awkward smile, "We can look at these documents later. Or shall we get straight to the point and sign the beneficiary agreement first?"

"Yes, it's better to sign the agreement first." Zhao Yachian nodded in agreement.

Luo Bin and the other two exchanged glances, all noticing the surprise in each other's eyes.

This involves a $100 million Trust Fund, and as the sole beneficiary, Zhao Yachian actually wields considerable power.

For example, it can supervise the management and use of trust property, and under certain conditions, even has the right to adjust the management of trust property.

However, she seemed to have no interest in any of these things.

Qin Yingxue pursed her rosy lips and said, "Of course, let me briefly introduce the contents of the agreement."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yachian quickly sat up straight, looking at her with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

Lin Mu Xue tightened her grip on her bag slightly and adjusted her posture again to appear more composed.

"First of all, this $100 million Family Trust was established by Mr. Tang in conjunction with the Kate Trust Fund, aiming to achieve the inheritance, preservation and appreciation of wealth, and ensure the quality of life of the beneficiaries..."

Qin Yingxue has excellent eloquence and speaks clearly and logically.

From the establishment of the trust to the rights and obligations of the beneficiaries, the story unfolds in detail, interspersed with some pointed and critical terms.

However, Zhao Yachian and Lin Mu Xue on the other side wouldn't listen to anything.

My mind is filled with the keyword "one hundred million US dollars".

Zhao Yachian's mouth gaped open; she simply couldn't believe how enormous this A sum of money was.

Lin Mu Xue stiffly twisted her neck and looked at the beautician in disbelief.

Are you kidding me?! A $100 million Family Trust?!

She even wondered if she was dreaming.

Or you might have wandered onto a film set, perhaps a variety show crew filming a prank on ordinary people.

She bit her lip, and a sharp pain shot through her.

Looking around, he glanced at the three people opposite him, and it seemed that everything was real.

This world is indeed a huge makeshift operation.

Once the buzzing in her head gradually subsided, Zhao Yachian asked blankly, "Excuse me, how much money can I receive each time?"

She was still replaying her cousin's words in her mind. "Annual salary of one million."

The scale of this trust is clearly larger than my cousin said; I might really be about to rise to the top in one step!

Financial freedom is within reach, but Zhao Yachian, a struggling working-class woman, has never felt so conflicted.

Lin Mu Xue swallowed hard and perked up her ears.

Although the amount in this trust is staggering, Zhao Yachian may not actually receive much money.

Qin Yingxue placed her hands on her thighs and said meaningfully, "Ms. Zhao, this trust was not set up specifically for you. You are only one of the beneficiaries. There will be other beneficiaries in the future."

According to the distribution rights set by Mr. Tang, you can only receive approximately $166,700 in trust income each period.

Furthermore, if you engage in any of the following behaviors, such as: being involved in illegal activities, having debts exceeding 50% of your annual income...

We will suspend your allocation rights and conduct a re-evaluation of your case.

Zhao Yachian listened to her words in a daze, her expression somewhat blank.

Qin Yingxue's lips curled up; her words had finally provoked her.

You wouldn't be so naive as to think that figures like Tang Song would belong to you alone, would you?

Just be Canary and don't think about things you shouldn't.

Mo Xiangwan was holding her Mobile Phone, seemingly chatting with someone.

Luo Bin Mo Mo looked away without saying anything more.

Zhao Yachian licked her lips, unable to figure out how much RMB this corresponded to.

She tugged at Xiao Xue's arm, giving her a puzzled look.

Lin Mu Xue gripped her bag tightly, let out a long breath, and said in a very complicated tone, "According to the current exchange rate, it's about 1.17 million yuan."

She never imagined that an ordinary beautician she met at a beauty salon would have such a chance encounter.

What does 1.17 million mean? It's equivalent to the annual salary of their company's management!

Among the successful "socialites" she knew, this was probably the best outcome.

You don't have to work; you can shop, travel, and attend parties every day without a care in the world.

19-year-old Qianqian avoided ten years of detours!

"Wow! 1.17 million!"

Upon hearing the exact number, Zhao Yachian let out a soft gasp, her face instantly lighting up with a broad smile, feeling lightheaded.

It happened! My dream came true!

Brother Song really loves me!

That's 170,000 more than the million-dollar annual salary my cousin mentioned!

You can buy whatever you like, and you can have your own barbecue and fried skewers.

The family's debt is no longer a huge problem.

I can finally empty the shopping cart.

Oh, and you can also go shopping at luxury stores with Xiao Xue and have her help you pick out some pretty clothes.

Qin Yingxue's expression gradually froze. She turned to the side and exchanged glances with Mo Xiangwan and Luo Bin.

Some people are so badly manipulated they can't even remember it.

She seems to be... a naive and innocent girl?

This is the first time the Slover Trust has established beneficiaries in its three years of operation, which speaks volumes about Tang Song's attitude towards Zhao Yachian.

Su Yu flew directly abroad, saying she needed to calm down for a while. Based on past patterns, it's highly likely that another sad love song will be born.

Even Director Jin lost sleep all night because of this and didn't go to the company today.

He glanced at Qin Yingxue and Mo Xiangwan, who had relaxed.

Luo Bin clenched his fists tightly, his gaze calm and collected, his mind racing, seemingly understanding Mr. Tang's deeper meaning.

Zhao Yachian, whose background, abilities, and qualities are all unremarkable, poses no threat to anyone and is indeed the best pawn to balance factional struggles.

The Tang Song were ultimately still the same Tang Song: aloof and rational, meticulous in their thinking, and unfathomable.

Noticing the strange looks from the three people opposite her, Zhao Yachian blushed slightly, but still asked the question that concerned her most, "This trust... should continue to exist, right?"

Luo Bin spoke up at the opportune moment, "Ms. Zhao, don't worry. As long as you don't violate the terms of the trust, this income will continue and can be inherited as part of your estate. In addition, it will be adjusted appropriately every 5 years according to the market economy and prices to ensure your quality of life."

"That's great!" Zhao Yachian's eyes Jing Jing with anticipation. "Then, when can I start receiving the money?"

Qin Yingxue picked up her teacup, took a sip, and said in a relaxed tone, "Starting today, funds will be transferred to your account on the 23rd of each month. The amount will vary depending on the exchange rate. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu Xue was stunned, and an unbelievable thought suddenly popped into her mind.

No way? Impossible? Are you kidding me?!

Zhao Yachian asked excitedly, "So, that means I can get around 100,000 RMB today, right?"

An annual salary of 1.17 million yuan, over 12 months, means a monthly salary of nearly 100,000 yuan!

Her bank account balance had never exceeded four figures, and the thought of suddenly having so much money made her so happy that she couldn't sleep.

Qin Yingxue's expression faltered, and she slammed down her teacup.

He said in a strange tone, "The annualized return of the fund corresponding to your agreement is $2 million. Mr. Tang has set the distribution cycle to be monthly. The $166,700 per period that I mentioned refers to one month."

With her suspicions confirmed, Lin Mu Xue's mind went blank, as if a torpedo had exploded. She clenched her teeth tightly and gripped her exquisitely manicured nails tightly around her beloved bag.

14 million yuan per year, 1.17 million yuan per month, and 39,000 yuan per day.

39,000 per day!

What does this mean?

She works hard and does part-time work on social media, earning around 16,000 yuan a month, which is about 0.4 yuan per day.

The barriers of class and wealth were presented to Lin Mu Xue with unprecedented clarity, leaving her bewildered and overwhelmed with emotion.

Why can't I have such a good opportunity?!

"A month?" Zhao Yachian's mouth dropped open, her eyes glazed over, and she clutched her chest tightly.

The first thing that comes to mind is being moved! An indescribable feeling of being moved by the Tang Song!

Then I felt a little guilty.

This is terrifying! Am I really worth that much money?

Having seen through Zhao Yachian's true character, Qin Yingxue's demeanor softened considerably, and she placed the beneficiary agreement and a pen in front of her.

"If there are no further questions, let's sign the agreement first. We can discuss other matters later. With Attorney Luo Bin, President Mo, and Ms. Lin present, the authenticity and legality of the agreement can be confirmed."

"Okay... okay."

Then, under Luo Bin's guidance, Zhao Yachian signed several documents in a daze.

Wait until everything is properly handled.

Luo Bin then took out a file folder from the safe and placed it in front of her.

He chuckled and said, "This includes the services and benefits you can enjoy, in addition to your fixed income."

They can be mainly divided into three categories: health, leisure, and personal growth motivation.

The Slover Trust includes a Special Fund and supporting resources designed to improve the quality of life, health, and well-being of its beneficiaries.

Let's start with "health," which includes: high-end private medical services, high-end fitness studios, nutritional consultations and catering services, psychological counseling services...

Luo Bin spoke slowly and in great detail.

Lin Mu Xue listened until her mouth went dry and her mind wandered.

To maintain Zhao Yachian's health, they provide: top-tier global medical insurance, a 24-hour private doctor, a full-fledged medical team, and guidance from top-notch fitness and nutrition experts...

To ensure Zhao Yachian enjoys her trip, they offer: customized travel plans, business class transportation, itinerary planning, flight and hotel bookings, and round-trip transfer services...

In addition, there are the rights to use leisure facilities such as private yachts, top-notch Golf courses, and luxury vacation homes.

To enhance Zhao Yachian's cultural refinement and taste, they offer her access to global art exhibitions, concerts, Fashion Week, and other cultural events...

To help Zhao Yachian expand her social circle, they offered her invitations to charity galas, Golf tournaments, high-end parties, and even organized an event according to her wishes.

To help Zhao Yachian improve herself, they offer: academic upgrading, overseas study, professional training, education funds...

Looking at the documents and hearing the terms, Lin Mu Xue's mind went blank.

At first, when she said that "my boyfriend will support me for life," she treated it as a joke, but now she couldn't laugh at all.

This beautician friend, whom she didn't consider particularly outstanding, crossed the boundaries she had always dreamed of in an extremely exaggerated way, becoming a true member of the upper class.

Zhao Yachian could freely enter and leave the banquets, venues, and circles that she herself desperately wanted to get into.

She could easily achieve the glamorous image she painstakingly cultivated.

An overwhelming sense of envy and jealousy made her lose control of her emotions.

It's unfair, but that's reality, just like those Second-Generation Rich who were born into privilege.

Zhao Yachian was moved to tears; she really cried.

What is love? This is probably the most direct and romantic expression!

Brother Song really loves me the most!

"I've only given a brief overview of the rights you'll receive; the detailed information is in the documents, which you can review later." Luo Bin picked up his teacup, took a sip, and stood up, saying, "I'm going to the restroom; you two can talk now."

Zhao Yachian nodded quickly and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a tissue.

Qin Yingxue suddenly looked at Lin Mu Xue and asked, "Miss Lin, what do you do for a living?"

Lin Mu Xue raised her pale face. "I work at a financial company."

"Oh? Which company?"

Lin Mu Xue bit her lip and whispered, "Rongxin Venture Capital."

Qin Yingxue said casually, "Oh, I've had a few contacts with Li Xinguo, and I've also collaborated with Rongxin Venture Capital."

Upon hearing this name, Lin Mu Xue's eyes trembled.

This woman actually knows their company's chairman!

The scene today, and the people who have appeared, have far exceeded her expectations.

Qin Yingxue smiled and said, "The agreement has been signed. Miss Lin can go out and visit the office environment of Juqing Huijin. Ms. Zhao and I will have a private chat."

"Okay, I'll go to the restroom while I'm at it." Lin Mu Xue licked her lips, slowly stood up, and walked outside.

Faced with such a powerful figure, she had neither the ability nor the courage to resist.

Once the heavy door closed again, Qin Yingxue turned her gaze to Zhao Yachian.

Her face was full of emotion and excitement, as if she was envisioning a wonderful life ahead.

Qin Yingxue straightened her clothes and reminded her, "Ms. Zhao, please make sure you carefully review the rules in the Trust Agreement when you get back. If you breach the agreement, all of the aforementioned rights will be forfeited."

Zhao Yachian nodded quickly, somewhat nervously saying, "Okay, I understand."

Looking at the naive and innocent girl with no guile, Qin Yingxue slowly stood up, her expression gradually becoming serious.

Raising his voice, he said, "In addition, I would like to remind you to be mindful of boundaries in your future life."

Mr. Tang is very busy with work and may not be able to spend enough time with you, so we have prepared a wide range of cultural and leisure activities for you.

You should proactively maintain boundaries with men, and this also applies to women with lesbian tendencies.

Before doing anything, always weigh the pros and cons, and never let hormones control your brain.

You are the First Position beneficiary of this trust; please cherish this trust.

Please remember this: what shelters you from the wind and rain can also block out the sky and the sun.
