However, high investment and high risk often yield high returns. If one succeeds, it can be likened to obtaining a golden key.

Although Huang Yue was not well-versed in investment and business, she couldn’t help but feel perplexed. “Wang Jing, why don’t you seek more investments? During our previous conversation, I heard that you have developed a unique anti-cancer medication. The market potential for such a medicine should be tremendous. It has the potential to save lives.”

Wang Jing, still embracing Huang Yue, kept his gaze lowered. His voice was slightly muffled as he explained, “The drug research can proceed with the listing application once we complete three clinical trials. We are currently in the final trial. At this stage, pursuing investments would mean relinquishing our hard-earned money to others. After thorough deliberation among the shareholders, we have opted to raise the necessary funds independently. I will use the house in Xifeng Court as collateral, and we are also exploring alternative avenues for financing.”

Huang Yue’s eyes glistened upon hearing the mention of “Xifeng Court.” When Xifeng Court was in the pre-sales phase, her father had expressed interest in purchasing a unit, but unfortunately, he hadn’t managed to secure a spot through his connections. “Your family resides in Xifeng Court?” she asked.

Wang Jing nodded and replied, “Yes, that’s correct. It was the first time in my life that I invested in a biotechnology research and development laboratory. My parents contributed half of the investment and used their connections to secure a unit for me.”

Huang Yue felt a sense of joy as she unintentionally learned more about Wang Jing’s family background. She started contemplating a visit to Wang Jing’s residence at West Peak Courtyard. The disappointment she had previously felt over Wei Xiao’s indifference had now transformed into anticipation. Simultaneously, Huang Yue made a firm decision to officially commit herself to a relationship with Wang Jing.

Wang Jing noticed Huang Yue’s distraction and couldn’t help but feel a bit dissatisfied. He was discussing something important and her lack of attention disrupted his acting.

Wang Jing raised his hand and discreetly rubbed his eyes a few times, revealing a slight redness. Releasing his hold on Huang Yue, he looked at Huang Yue with a sorrowful gaze. “Huang Yue, I apologize. It seems that I will take some time to pay you back.”

Huang Yue immediately shook her head. “It’s fine. You have to get through this first.”

Wang Jing’s eyes, already slightly red, grew even redder upon hearing this news. He buried his head in Huang Yue’s neck once again, and a single tear escaped his eyes. His voice trembled with sobs as he spoke, “My parents come from a traditional industry background. They don’t understand the intricacies of high-tech biotechnology research and development. They would only insist on me returning home to inherit the family business, so they won’t support me at all.”

“I’m left to figure things out on my own. I’ve already invested the entire mortgage on the house. The money I have with me can barely cover this simple porridge for you. My dear, I know it hasn’t been easy for you,” Wang Jing said, her voice filled with a mixture of sadness and determination.

“I’m left to figure things out on my own. I’ve already invested the entire mortgage on the house. The money I have with me can barely cover this simple porridge for you. My dear, I know it hasn’t been easy for you,” Wang Jing said, his voice filled with a mixture of sadness and determination.

When Huang Yue felt the warmth on her neck, she was completely taken aback. However, in an instant, her heart ached. Simultaneously, she felt deeply moved. She was touched that despite giving his all to her, Wang Jing still believed it wasn’t enough.

The act of a man who had a million yuan to spend, but chose to spend 10,000 yuan on you, and another man who had only 10 yuan but spent it all on you, evokes completely different emotions for the person involved.

Huang Yue felt that she had truly encountered love, and it was the love of a wealthy man. She couldn’t help but compare herself to Cinderella, as if she had finally been given the opportunity to marry a prince.

Huang Yue couldn’t contain her inner excitement and reached out to embrace Wang Jing for the first time. It felt like a fairy tale moment, as if she had found her own prince.

“Have you eaten?” Huang Yue asked with concern.

Wang Jing shook his head and sat up straight. He picked up the porridge and handed it to Huang Yue. Suppressing his own hunger, he said, “You should eat first. I’m not hungry.”

In this situation, anyone with eyes could tell if Wang Jing was hungry.

Huang Yue’s motherly instincts kicked in, and she felt an overwhelming surge of love. Realizing that she wasn’t particularly hungry at the moment, she replied, “You go ahead and eat. I had a late breakfast, so I’m not very hungry yet. I can have a meal before my afternoon classes.”

Wang Jing politely declined, knowing that the porridge they had was the cheapest option from a roadside stall. Even though it had been transferred into a take-out box from Xingyue Restaurant, it made the meal appear much more expensive. However, deep down, it was still just a five-yuan bowl of porridge from a simple roadside stall. There was uncertainty about the quality of the meat used in the dish. It could have been sourced from the cheapest cuts, like pork neck, without any guarantee of freshness.

Wang Jing concealed any feelings of disdain for the plain porridge and expressed concern as she spoke to Huang Yue. “The burns on your face are still healing, and I know you don’t have much of an appetite. I specifically asked the chef at Xingyue Restaurant to prepare it according to your preferences. Please eat quickly and don’t worry about me.”

Huang Yue had never eaten porridge cooked by a five-star chef before, and it was specially custom-made. She no longer refused to take the meat porridge.. But she looked at Wang Jing worriedly and asked, “How are you going to survive without money?”
