Capítulo 99: 100. With Liu Jie Feeling Sore, Su Yan Settles on the Weixin Project
"Just with Aunt Liu, we did everything."
Su Yan was blunt, his eyes gleaming. He had been craving Liu Jie for more than just a day or two. The allure of this mature and elegant woman was simply too irresistible for him.
Liu Jie, on the other hand, was trying her best to hold onto some semblance of control. "No... Kissing is just a way to express affection, to build closeness. But if we continue, we'll cross the line."
She was doing everything she could to convince herself, telling her heart that this was just an innocent exchange between elder and younger. But deep down, she knew that if they pushed any further, there would be no turning back. And how could she continue lying to herself if they did?
Su Yan, understanding her hesitation, took a gentler approach. He lightly clasped her hand and smiled softly. "Then, as long as we don't go all the way, it's still just a way to express our feelings, isn't it?"
Liu Jie wanted to object, but somehow, Su Yan's words made sense. Reluctantly, she let her heart quiet down, and before long, things progressed naturally.

The next day, Ma Huateng returned to Shencheng in a rush. With the significant changes in Tengxun's equity, there were many matters waiting to be dealt with.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaolong made his way to Su Yan's office. Beside the window, Liu Jie was gently stretching her wrist, feeling a bit sore from the previous night's activities.
"Mr. Su...," Zhang Xiaolong began, still processing everything that had happened. Reflecting on their conversation from the night before over drinks, it all felt surreal. Su Yan had personally promised to invest in him through Rongyan and, more incredibly, had offered him a staggering one billion yuan to pursue his ideas.
"Are you really going to invest one billion in me?" Zhang Xiaolong asked again, his voice tinged with disbelief. It still felt like a dream to him.
"Of course," Su Yan responded with ease. "I'll set up a separate department for you. You'll have the freedom to recruit your own team and build something of your own."
"But I don't even know what I want to do yet," Zhang Xiaolong admitted, still feeling a bit lost. The offer was incredible, but he didn't have a clear vision for the future.
"Surely, you have some ideas," Su Yan said, leaning forward with interest. "I'm hoping you'll create something groundbreaking on the Internet. Brother Zhang, you know I've always had an interest in the Internet."
Zhang Xiaolong thought for a moment. "I can tell. I saw it when you backed Ahrii and Zhuang Xun. You're optimistic about the future of Internet companies."
He hesitated for a moment before sharing his idea. "Actually... I've been playing around with something in my head recently, but it seems far-fetched."
"Go ahead," Su Yan urged. "It's just an idea, right?"
Reluctantly, Zhang Xiaolong continued, "I've been thinking about developing an instant messaging app. Yes, Penguin already dominates the market... but a lot of people still don't use it."
"Particularly middle-aged and elderly users. And with the rise of Android, I think smartphones will become the mainstream for mobile devices in the future."
Su Yan's eyes lit up as he listened to Zhang Xiaolong. It was clear that Zhang's vision was sharp—he could see the potential of smartphones in a way few others could at the time.
"But," Zhang Xiaolong added, his tone growing more uncertain, "when I think about it, Penguin has already locked down the entire instant messaging market. It feels redundant to try to build something new. The chances of success seem slim."
Su Yan, however, didn't share his doubts. He leaned back confidently and said, "This is a great idea. We'll use that one billion to develop this instant messaging app."
He smiled and added, "Let's call it Weixin."
Zhang Xiaolong stood frozen for a moment, completely taken aback by Su Yan's response. He couldn't believe how quickly Su had latched onto the idea, despite its seemingly impossible odds. Was this really happening? Was he serious?
Su Yan's unwavering confidence stunned him, but deep down, something told Zhang Xiaolong that perhaps this idea wasn't so far-fetched after all.
