What?! Proposal?!
"Em what proposal" Nan Shen thought for a second it was marriage proposal so he awkwardly cough to hide his embarrassment.
"I...you know I am in debt so I want to borrow your money before I pay it back to you..." Tan Hua face was red since she was so embarrassed.
The quickest way to get that much money was of course borrowing it from others and she had this one rich CEO in front of her eyes.
But she was embarrassed to borrow money from her own boss. She was no one to Nan Shen yet she wanted to borrow that much money.
Hearing this Nan Shen face slowly became serious. This is a talk about money after all as a professional CEO he had to be serious.
"I can lend it to you but how do you plan on paying me back? your wage as an office boy clearly won't be able to pay back that much money. 10 million USD"
Nan Shen played with his finger as he asked Tan Hua the main point of his question. Even though he indeed had planned to lend Tan Hua that money he still had to get benefit from her.
That's how business work after all.
"I will become designer and pay you gradually" Tan Hua had already made a plan for her future as she talked with serious face.
She knew she was dumb aside from designing so she had to learn more about other thing such as business now.
"Hmm how about you become a designer in my company. I am sure each of your work will sell well. I will only take 30% from the profit and the rest you can use it to pay your debt to me how is it?"
Nan Shen proposed this idea since if this plan worked, Tan Hua could just live her life as a girl and he would introduce her as his girlfriend. This way his parents wouldn't too suspicious about their relationship anymore.
Not only that Tan Hua could also live her life as a girl! She could pay her debt unhurriedly, she could become a famous designer with the help of his company and he too could made his company go international.
It's a win-win situation!
"It's a good idea but I...have a plan to make my own brand" Tan Hua took a deep breath before telling Nan Shen her true plan.
Making her own brand!
Hearing this Nan Shen instantly had a worried face. It's not because he against Tan Hua making her own brand. But because women...in this world couldn't own a company or a brand.
Look at Mi Shu she was talented but she work as a designer she never build her own company even though she could. It's all because she was a girl.
This world was rather cruel to women and this means if Tan Hua wanted to make her own brand she still had to live as a boy!
Why? wasn't his idea interesting enough? Why bother making her own brand when she would have to live as a man for a few years in the future?
At least until her company had became big enough so she could reveal her true gender later. Otherwise when people knew the owner of that brand or that company was a woman they would become hostile and the company would get bankrupt soon.
"I...want to change...I don't want my life to be like this" Tan Hua could actually choose the easy path which was like what Nan Shen suggested to her but.
She recalled why she was called here by the God. It was so she could create a change. This world was hostile toward LGBT people and women.
That's why her sister who didn't have good education ended up being prostitutes and later she was depressed.
If she make her own company she could help many people like her sister out there who was desperate. No matter how rich she was she couldn't help a lot of people without giving them job.
That is one of her reason for making her own brand and second. She love this evil CEO and in the future she knew it would be hard to be with him if she didn't have good social status.
Just becoming a popular designer alone wouldn't make her be able to match this man. In the future this man family must want him to marry someone from big company.
That is usual in the world of rich people that's why she wanted to build her own company. Her empire so one day she wouldn't be getting help from this man but could also help him.
Seeing the determination in Tan Hua eyes, Nan Shen could only sighed and sighed. He didn't hate this idea but it means he had to wait for this girl to reveal her true gender right?
He just wanted this girl to live a good life but it seemed she wanted to create her own way instead of something he prepared for her. Not bad. Actually this made his heart touched.
Not many women out there had this kind of mindset. They would rather marry a rich man and live a good life rather than making their own way to the top.
