Chapter 256 Original Sin 65
The villagers say that they are all deeply indebted to us, so naturally, we should enjoy special treatment. Our noble benefactor refuses to accept anything from us, not even our money. The least we can do is offer them some good food as a token of our appreciation. If you desire this kind of treatment, first ask yourself if you spent enough money to buy these fruit plates, snacks, and nuts!
Wan Yan looked at Yun Shuangshuang sitting there eating and sighed, thinking how enviably good her relations are.
Yun Shuangshuang paid no mind to what Wan Yan was thinking and directly placed the formula in front of Wan Yan. Wan Yan eagerly picked up Yun Shuangshuang’s formula and didn’t even need to ask questions before proceeding to sign the contract!
Wan Yan absolutely trusts Yun Shuangshuang’s skills. Nowadays, the best-selling products in his food company are the hotpot base and barbecue sauce recipes Yun Shuangshuang sold him! Wan Yan believes that anything produced by Yun Shuangshuang is bound to be a hit!
Wan Yan has even greater trust in Yun Shuangshuang’s character, which he has personally witnessed. During this contract signing, Wan Yan planned to offer Yun Shuangshuang equity shares again. Unlike the first time when he hesitated to give her too much, Wan Yan genuinely wanted to offer Yun Shuangshuang some equity shares over the years, but Yun Shuangshuang always firmly declined.
It’s not that Yun Shuangshuang is pretentious, but she understood that at that time, her recipe wasn’t worthy of Quanwei’s equity shares. Moreover, the significant stakes Wan Yan offered her were mostly out of gratitude, and that made Yun Shuangshuang even more unwilling to accept them.
No matter how grateful someone is to you, if you exploit that gratitude endlessly, you will eventually erode those feelings of gratitude.
But if Yun Shuangshuang resists the temptation of fame and fortune and steadfastly refuses Wan Yan’s money, not only will it keep Wan Yan’s gratitude strong, but it will also make him respect her character even more. Therefore, Yun Shuangshuang would never accept any offerings from Wan Yan given with the intent of repaying gratitude.
Furthermore, Yun Shuangshuang has always hoped that she would never have to rely on Wan Yan as a backup, for she desires more to depend on her own strength to seek justice for her mother.
Rather than seeing Wan Yan as Yun Shuangshuang’s backup, it’s more accurate to say that he’s a last resort and assurance for her plans.
However, this time after Wan Yan expressed his intent to offer Yun Shuangshuang equity shares again, she did not refuse. Because Yun Shuangshuang had already proven her worth. Unlike when they first signed a deal, where the success of her products was uncertain, Yun Shuangshuang has now demonstrated that her formulas are truly golden geese!
At this moment, Yun Shuangshuang accepting the equity shares offered by Wan Yan is no longer out of gratitude, but as a guarantee from an equal footing – ensuring that she, Yun Shuangshuang, and Wan Yan’s Quanwei Company stand together. She chose to become part of Quanwei Company, and moving forward, any formulas she has will only be for Quanwei Company.
However, Yun Shuangshuang didn’t want more than Wan Yan was offering. She simply estimated the value of her formulas and settled on an appropriate amount of equity shares. Wan Yan and Feng Jing, wanting to give her more equity, could only reluctantly accept Yun Shuangshuang’s stubborn decision after losing the argument.
