High School Belle Fell in Love with Me

Chapter 404 - 192: Jiang Banxia’s Doomsday Has Arrived_4

After more than an hour of busy work, Liu Ruyi finally finished preparing a table full of dishes.

Liu Ruyi changed her clothes and gave a few reminders, like taking the dishes off the heat after a few minutes. If Jiang Banxia came back late, some dishes could be reheated, while others didn’t need to be.

After giving her instructions, Li Yang escorted her downstairs.

Less than five minutes after Li Yang returned to the room, Jiang Banxia arrived.

She had a driver now, and except for holidays, the driver would drop her off at the community gate.

"Master Jiang, you must be tired. Come and see the feast I’ve prepared for you!"

Li Yang pulled Jiang Banxia into the living room.

"Has Master Li become this skilled?" Jiang Banxia asked, feigning surprise.

Actually... after just one look at the plating, she knew it wasn’t Li Yang who cooked it.

"Of course, I’ve been honing my cooking skills all these years just to impress you."

"Thank you, Master Li. Sniff... I feel a lot better now."

Jiang Banxia reached out and gave Li Yang a hug.

Li Yang led her to a seat and consoled, "What happened today isn’t your fault. Even if Buffett himself came, he’d still have to bow to the A-shares market twice before leaving. I noticed you were already planning some adjustments; you’re doing much better than most. We’ll restart in a few days."

It was already 2016. The latter half of 2015 didn’t see much market activity, with only a slight rebound in real estate.

But in 2016, there were plenty of opportunities, which would last until the second half of 2017.

The next two years would see the rise of big blue-chip stocks in the A-shares market, with countless so-called blue-chips doubling in value.

This was truly Jiang Banxia’s time, handling billions in funds with ease.

"Hmm, I’m so hungry..."

"Let’s eat, let’s eat. There are still two dishes in the kitchen. I’ll bring them over right away; you start first."

"Alright, alright."

Jiang Banxia picked up her chopsticks, and after taking a bite, her eyes squinted with delight.

Watching Li Yang busily moving back and forth, she felt an indescribable sense of peace.

After finishing his tasks, Li Yang sat down beside her to eat as well.

While eating, he said, "I checked the market today. Over 1,300 stocks hit the lower limit, and there are only a little over 2,000 stocks in the entire A-shares market. Several in-market funds even hit the lower limit; I wonder how those fund investors are holding up. Buying a fund and seeing it hit the lower limit..."

Jiang Banxia asked, "What if I hit the lower limit too?"

Li Yang’s heart skipped a beat.

Hit the lower limit?

Did she not maintain a 35% cash position?

With a 35% cash position, it shouldn’t hit the lower limit; at most, you’d lose 6.5%.

"Don’t worry, don’t worry. What’s hitting the lower limit? Everyone has a first time. A fund that’s never hit the lower limit isn’t a qualified fund."

"What if there’s a massive redemption and it hits the lower limit for several days?"

"Don’t worry, don’t worry! Trust in my followers; they’re rational people and will understand."

Although Li Yang said this, he knew very well the situation was not optimistic.

With the market hitting the lower limit, who could stay rational?

Jiang Banxia earnestly said, "Has Master Li ever doubted my trading skills? You clearly warned me about the risks, and yet I went all in..."

Li Yang quickly replied, "How presumptuous would I have to be to doubt your skills? You surely have your reasons for going all in! Besides, what’s a temporary loss? It’s not like you’ve never lost money before."

"Oh, oh..."

Jiang Banxia buried her head and continued eating.

...

An hour later, after finishing their meal.

Li Yang suggested Jiang Banxia rest in the bedroom for a while, and he’d tidy up the table.

After half an hour passed and Jiang Banxia didn’t see Li Yang coming to the bedroom, she sneaked out.

Then she discovered Li Yang streaming secretly.

"Brothers, don’t fall for the online hype. They just want to make you panic so that capital stampedes, making it easier for them to pick up shares cheap."

"Besides, would I ever lead you astray? Tomorrow, I’ll throw all my money in to back you guys up!"

...

It was the first time Jiang Banxia saw Li Yang being so humble in a live stream.

With his current status, was it necessary?

Moreover, he was risking breaking the rules by saying these things.
