"The process is a little tortuous," Simon explained.
Lydia was intrigued by the story. She threw Jane and Elizabeth aside and hopped to Simon's side.
"Oh, don't keep us in suspense. Tell us about it!"
Even Elizabeth, who had not said much all this time, pulled up her skirt and sat on Simon's other side.
She urged, "Simon, hurry up and tell us."
The two beauties sandwiched him in the middle.
Their soft bodies were pressed against his arms.
They were so close that he could even tell the type of perfume they were wearing.
Simon smiled. Facing Jane's puzzled gaze, he continued, "After the website developed, it attracted the interest of my senior brothers and schoolmates."
"One of them wanted to buy our website."
"At that time, I didn't agree because I knew that with the involvement of a company, the profits would become the first priority and the authors' income would be greatly reduced."
Listening to Simon's thoughts, Jane revealed an appreciative smile.
The reason why the Creative Literature Website was able to stand out was that readers and authors liked a simple environment.
But from a business perspective, Simon's naive ideas were a waste of natural resources.
Yet, he was still a student at the time, so this idea was understandable.
"Have you told your senior brother about these ideas?" Jane asked.
"Yes, and our ideas clashed because of it," Simon answered.
That senior brother's family was very rich, and his family had high hopes for him.
Therefore, he wanted to start a company to prove himself, so he was very interested in the acquisition.
"The senior brother hit it off with the alumnus, and then gave me a sum of money to quit the website management," Simon said regretfully.
Lydia pouted unhappily. "Too much, isn't this bullying our little Simon!"
"Don't interrupt, listen to Simon. What happened after that?" Jane said.
Simon scratched his head and thought for a while. "I was only a freshman. I didn't know how to use the money, so I put it in the bank."
"After that, Creative Company was founded. The authors' salaries were reduced by a lot, causing the development of the website to be sluggish."
"Senior brother didn't want Creative Company to be destroyed by his own hands, so he went back to the original mode."
"So, the two of them had a serious disagreement!"
When there was a disagreement, there was competition.
"Later, when the alumnus saw that Creative Company couldn't get any profit, he took the initiative to quit."
"But the two of them didn't completely fall out, and they even teamed up to do other business together."
After saying that, Jane revealed a knowing smile.
Then she said, "Did your senior brother get cheated by the alumnus later?"
"As expected of Eldest Sister." Simon gave a thumbs up. "That's true."
He continued, "The alumnus was unhappy that senior brother had blocked his way of earning money and tricked him into investing in non-performing assets. My senior brother was heavily in debt."
"He was eager to cash out. It just so happened that I had some money on hand, so he sold the company to me at a lower price."
"That's how it happened."
"But I only took over for two days, and coincidentally, Eldest Sister was about to buy it."
He laughed twice, put his hands together, and made an apologetic gesture to Jane.
Not only was Jane not angry, but after listening to the story, her opinion of Simon changed greatly.
"I was wondering why you didn't want your pocket money. So you're already a small boss," Jane praised.
She was worried that Simon treated them as outsiders and didn't tell them anything.
Fortunately, there was an explanation for everything.
With such a complicated story, Simon had only been at home for two days, so he definitely did not have the time to tell them.
Simon's ability was really beyond imagination!
"As expected of our little Simon, he's so amazing!" Lydia hugged Simon's arm and affectionately rubbed against it.
After her bust became bigger, the touch became softer.
Man-made processing was indeed not as good as natural processing!
Simon was embarrassed by the rubbing and pulled his arm out of Lydia's arms.
"Sister, don't blame me. When my assistant said that someone was going to buy it, she didn't even mention his name. I spoke a little too harshly."
Jane shook her head in amusement. "Although I was almost angered to death, who asked you to be my dear little brother?"
Looking at Simon's sensible appearance, how could Jane still be angry?
But thinking back, when she heard Barbara say that Simon's attitude was terrible as he requested for her to meet him personally.
She was really furious!
In all her life, only her mother spoke to her in such a tone.
If it was anyone else, he would have been in big trouble long ago!
"Seriously, what was wrong with your assistant? She can't even say the name of the buyer clearly," Lydia said unhappily.
As expected of a live streamer, she really could answer anything.
Simon laughed. "At that time, she only said that the other party was not to be trifled with."
Indeed, she was not to be trifled with.
Mona laid out the most important point.
However, he could not be persuaded by force and had made a big mistake.
Simon asked tentatively, "Eldest Sis, are you still going to buy my website?"
"Hahaha, of course not." Jane laughed loudly. "If I buy it, won't I make the same mistake as what the alumnus did before?"
"Then what about your acquisition?"
"The acquisition website isn't as important as you. I'll just get Barbara to look for another one," Jane said generously.
With that, she stood up and walked in front of Simon, placing a hand on his shoulder.
Her red lips parted slightly, and she smiled happily. "I have seen countless people, but I couldn't see that my brother is so powerful. I am willing to concede defeat!"
Simon's heart was filled with waves of warmth.
He knew that the acquisition was not like selling cabbages. She couldn't change it as she wished.
Perhaps the eldest sister's retreat for him would cause Hilton to suffer losses but she still did not change her mind.
"Thank you, Eldest Sister," Simon said gratefully.
"It's no big deal." Jane patted his shoulder.
Then, she straightened up and suddenly stood up again. "Who said I was a cold-blooded female demon just now?"
Lydia did not expect Jane to hold a grudge, and her body froze.
She raised her smiling face and said, "Eldest Sister, I didn't mean that..."
"Slander me in front of my brother, Fifth Sister. After I make the call, you'd better have a reasonable explanation!" Jane took up the phone and walked to the side.
Simon heard that she was telling Barbara to find a new acquisition target.
Lydia, who was at the side, had a sad look on her face. She shook Simon's arm and said, "Good brother, you have to save me!"
"I promise to clean your room every day!"
Simon thought about it and felt that it was not bad.
If Lydia came every day, he would not have to make up an excuse to get her to come over and sign in.
He raised his eyebrows and smiled. "I'll try?"
Elizabeth quickly stopped him, "Simon, Lydia deserves to be punished. Don't let her!"
"Aiyo, Second Sister, are you still my good second sister? Don't stop Simon!"
Elizabeth could not do anything about her and could only say to Simon, "Ignore her!"
"It's alright, Second Sister. Lydia originally had good intentions."
If Lydia was really sent to the warehouse, she would definitely not be able to complete the missions in the future.
No way.
He still had to help!
[Ding! The 'Return Rate System' has completed the mission. Congratulations Host for obtaining the treasure box!]
The system's voice suddenly sounded!
Simon looked at Jane's back in disbelief.
The eldest sister was so fast!
She completed the acquisition mission with a single call!
