The day after the college entrance examination scores were hidden.

After finishing breakfast at home, Chen Mo received a call from Lu Jingyi.

"I had my lawyers in Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands redo the family office structure you mentioned earlier."

"Creative Capital is not suitable for directly undertaking all asset management functions at the personal and family level."

"Creation is a global capital platform targeting institutional investment, funds, overseas technology projects, and macro transactions."

"But your personal domestic cash, Taichu income, Star Technology related dividends, and future family asset arrangements need a more private and stable vehicle."

Chen Mo stood on the balcony, holding a glass of warm water in his hand.

"What about the structure?"

"A holding company will be established in the Cayman Islands, under which a management company will be established in Hong Kong, and a consulting and asset management services company will be established in Changhu City in mainland China."

Lu Jingyi said, "Tentative name: Xingchen Family Office."

Chen Mo raised an eyebrow: "Xing Chen, you named it yourself?"

Lu Jingyi said with a hint of a smile, "I just had the lawyer do as I was told."

Chen Mo smiled.

Xing Chen.

The name is neither international nor financial in nature; it's even a bit plain.

But he likes it.

The purpose of Xingchen Family Office is not expansion.

It's about protecting.

Protect his parents, protect his family, and protect the things he truly doesn't want to lose.

"Where are the personnel?" Chen Mo asked.

"I will first send a small team from Revitalize Hong Kong over there."

Lu Jingyi said, "Let's set up the framework in Changhu City first. If needed later, you can gradually recruit people from China."

"However, it's best to have the core accounts and permissions temporarily overseen by the people sent by Creation."

"The biggest fear for family offices is that they will be infiltrated by personal connections from the very beginning."

Chen Mo hummed in agreement.

"I'll transfer the money today."

"How many?"

"One billion RMB".

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

Lu Jingyi took a soft breath.

"One billion?"

"Part of the funds from Huaguo Bank, plus the profits settled by Taichu during this period."

Chen Mo spoke calmly.

"Put it in Xingchen's office first."

"From now on, my parents' life, medical care, travel, safety, as well as some of my personal non-company affairs will all be handled from here."

Lu Jingyi was silent for a moment, then her voice softened.

"You're starting to think about things in more detail."

She then asked, "What about the private jet side?"

"Also put it into Xingchen Family Office."

Chen Mo said, "In the future, private travel, family travel, and business flights will be managed separately."

Lu Jingyi flipped through the documents at hand.

"That Xu Qing you mentioned?"

"Um."

Chen Mo nodded.

"Sign her first. She has already left the airline and is now under the Xingchen family office, in charge of business jet and private travel services."

Lu Jingyi chuckled; she had also received Xu Qing's file.

"She is beautiful, meticulous, perceptive, and familiar with the airline's service system."

"This kind of person would only be a high-class flight attendant in an airline. But in a home-based travel system, they would be a perfect fit."

"President Chen is indeed quite skilled at selecting people."

Chen Mo understood the implication in her words and smiled.

"If Mr. Lu is not at ease, he can conduct the interview in person."

"Of course I want her face," Lu Jingyi said. "She'll be in charge of your private travel from now on, so she'll have quite a bit of authority."

"Whether it can be used, how it can be used, and how its boundaries should be defined, I will conduct further review."

Chen Mo did not object.

"Can."

Lu Jingyi continued, "Then I'll have someone contact her today."

"Should the Xingchen family's Changhu office be located in the IFC for now?"

"Um."

Chen Mo said, "It's conveniently located near the airport, the High-tech Zone, and Douyin."

"If needed later, I'll buy another apartment separately."

Lu Jingyi quickly took notes on the other end of the phone.

"Understood. Should we inform your parents yet?"

Chen Mo paused for a moment.

"No need to go into too much detail."

"It wasn't easy for them to just accept Star Technology."

"Let's set up the office here first. We'll let them know gradually when they need it."

Lu Jingyi hummed in agreement.

"it is good."

She paused for a moment, then asked, "You really won't change your name?"

"Xingchen is good."

Chen Mo smiled.

Lu Jingyi's tone regained some of its cheerfulness.

"Okay, I'll go make the arrangements first. I'll have Xu Qing go directly to Changhu to report."

"By the time you fly next time, the travel team run by the Xingchen family should be able to officially take over."

......

Chen Mo put away his phone and turned to go back inside.

A few minutes later, both Huaguo Bank and Taichu Capital received the instructions simultaneously.

A total of one billion yuan will be transferred to the designated account of Xingchen Family Office in installments.

Meanwhile, Lu Jingyi's call also reached Xu Qing.

……

Wednesday.

Changhu Airport.

Lin Wan stood outside the VIP passage and looked down at the time for the third time.

3:40 PM.

Fifteen minutes have passed since the flight landed.

She wore a light-colored business suit today, her long hair was tied back, and her makeup was very light, but she still looked capable.

But the way she held the phone betrayed her inner turmoil.

Chen Mo stood beside her, looking relaxed.

White shirt, dark trousers, and a thin black jacket over it.

If you didn't see Zhou Zheng and the two security guards not far behind him, he would look more like an ordinary student who had just finished the college entrance examination and was accompanying his sister to pick someone up.

Lin Wan couldn't help but turn her head and glance at him.

"Mr. Chen."

Chen Mo looked at her.

Lin Wan paused.

"If my parents ask me later how we got together..."

"bank."

Chen Mo spoke naturally.

"You were the account manager, and I was the customer."

Lin Wan's eyelids twitched slightly.

"and then?"

"Then I thought you were quite capable, so I recruited you to Star Technology."

"And then?"

Chen Mo thought for a moment.

"Feelings develop over time?"

Lin Wan's ears burned, and she couldn't help but whisper, "Mr. Chen, could you please be a little more serious?"

"I'm very serious."

Chen Mo smiled.

"Isn't this the most reasonable version?"

Lin Wan was speechless.

That makes sense, and it might even be the truth.

She took a deep breath.

"My dad is quite perceptive. He might not ask about your relationship directly, but he will try to gauge your attitude towards Jiangcheng, Xingchen Technology, and Shengyuan Group."

"My mom looks gentle, but she's actually harder to fool."

"Shen Jiashu..."

She paused for a moment when she said the name.

"He probably didn't just come to attend the investment promotion conference."

Chen Mo nodded.

"Know."

Lin Wan looked at him: "Aren't you nervous? Meeting my parents."

Chen Mo looked at her, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"A little, but I'll try my best to act as convincingly as possible."

She lowered her head and softly hummed in agreement.

"Thanks."

"Lin Wan, get into the swing of things!" Chen Mo looked towards the VIP entrance. "Your boyfriend is here to pick up your future in-laws, no need to thank me."

Lin Wan's ears turned completely red.

Just as she was about to say something, footsteps sounded at the entrance of the passageway.

A group of people came out from inside.

The man walking in front was around fifty years old, with a tall and straight figure, wearing a dark gray casual suit, and looked slightly serious.

The woman beside him wore a beige coat, her hair was tied up, and she had gentle features and a resemblance to Lin Wan.

A young man was following half a step behind the two.

He was around thirty years old, tall with long legs, wearing a brown suit, carrying only a light suitcase, and looked clean, composed, with a smile on his face.

Lin Wan's fingers tightened instinctively, and Chen Mo suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand.

Lin Wan's computer crashed instantly.

At almost the same time, Lin's father, Lin Chengze, also saw Lin Wan.

His gaze first fell on his daughter, then naturally swept over Chen Mo and their clasped hands.

He raised an eyebrow, showing a hint of surprise, while Lin's mother, Xu Yaqin, smiled.

"Xiao Wan".

"Dad, Mom."

Lin Wan realized what was happening, released Chen Mo's hand, and quickly went to meet him.

Xu Yaqin gently hugged her daughter, but her gaze went past her and looked at Chen Mo standing beside her.

"Xiao Wan, aren't you going to introduce her?"

Lin Wan's heart beat slightly faster.

She turned around and looked at Chen Mo, who had already taken half a step forward, looking calm and composed, as if he hadn't done anything at all.

"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."

"I am Chen Mo."

Lin Chengze looked at him and reached out his hand.

"Lin Chengze".

Chen Mo grasped his hand.

"Uncle Lin."

The two gently clasped hands.

A strange light flashed across Lin Chengze's eyes.

The young man in front of me looks even younger than he does in the photo.

But when she stood in front of him, she didn't feel awkward at all.

Xu Yaqin looked at Chen Mo, her smile deepening.

"You must be Chen Mo. Auntie has heard Xiao Wan mention you before."

Lin Wan's cheeks flushed slightly.

When did she mention it so much?

Most of the time, it was her parents who asked the questions, and she gave vague answers.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Lin Wan often mentions your uncle and aunt."

Xu Yaqin raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Yeah?"

She glanced at her daughter, her tone gentle.

"When she mentioned us, she probably didn't mention you as much."

Lin Wan: "Mom."

Xu Yaqin smiled and didn't tease her any further.

Shen Jiashu then stepped forward and offered his hand.

"Mr. Chen, I've heard so much about you."

Chen Mo looked at him.

Shen Jiashu smiled gently.

"Shengyuan Group, Shen Jiashu."

"President Shen."

Chen Mo shook hands with him.

Shen Jiashu sized up the boy in front of him, his curiosity undisguised.

He did his homework before coming to Jiangcheng.

Xingchen Technology, Xingxin Mining, Douyin.

Jiangcheng New Energy Materials Industry Chain.

All the clues ultimately lead back to one name.

Chen Mo.

But when he actually met him in person, Shen Jiashu still felt it was somewhat absurd.

too young.

If Lin Wan hadn't been there, he might have even doubted whether he had mistaken her for someone else.

"Mr. Shen, you're too kind."

Chen Mo released his grip.

"Shengyuan Group is doing well in Jiangnan; I've heard Lin Wan mention it before."

Shen Jiashu smiled.

"It is my honor to be mentioned by President Lin."

Lin Wan remained calm and did not respond.

Chen Mo seemed not to understand the implication and simply smiled faintly.

"The car is outside. Uncle and Aunt have had a long journey. Let's go back to the hotel and rest first."

Xu Yaqin glanced at the convoy parked not far away.

He nodded slightly in his heart; at least this young man wasn't perfunctory in his manners.

The group walked outside.

Lin Wan originally wanted to ride in the same car as her parents, but Xu Yaqin suddenly took her hand and whispered, "You sit in the back with me."

Lin Wan was slightly taken aback.

Xu Yaqin then looked at Chen Mo.

"Chen Mo, you don't mind riding in the same car as your Uncle Lin, do you?"

Lin Wan's heart tightened.

coming.

Chen Mo, however, remained calm.

"Of course I don't mind."

Lin Chengze glanced at his wife but did not object.

Soon, the convoy drove out of the airport.

Lin Wan and Xu Yaqin sat in the back row.

After a moment of silence in the car, Xu Yaqin slowly spoke.
