Chapter 504 - 495: The Eve
People of different statuses have different means of revenge. Take Su Qing, for example; after getting angry, he first vents his emotions, then considers whether to take any real countermeasures.
He’s the epitome of youthful impulsiveness, acting recklessly without considering the consequences, and of course, there’s an element of naivety.
In contrast, Hu Liangcai is much more calculating. Even if he’s very angry, he doesn’t fly into a rage; at most, his tone gets harsh. As for his methods of revenge, they naturally rise to the level of interests.
Comparing the two, it’s clear who’s superior. In this aspect, Su Qing definitely can’t compete with a seasoned old fox like that.
It’s not that he’s foolish; it’s due to the age difference, life experiences, and differing personalities.
Of course, this also relates to the lack of any warning to him about the danger. Otherwise, no matter how angry he was, he would think twice before acting.
But Shen Yi doesn’t see it that way. On the contrary, she quite enjoys seeing her man look like this.
Even though it’s not much, knowing that he will protect his woman is enough.
Although she is very capable herself, her requirements for a partner aren’t really high. The first is that she must like him, and the second is that he cares for her and stands by her side no matter what happens.
Regarding so-called financial conditions, education, family background, these are secondary to her. Her excellence is not only due to her economic conditions but also her clear self-awareness, knowing what she wants.
Her privileged background and clear self-awareness mean her requirements for a partner aren’t like some equally excellent women who feel they must find someone stronger than themselves.
She actually prefers Su Qing when he had no money. That way, Su Qing provides her with emotional value while she provides financial value, which is her favorite mode of interaction.
Fortunately, even with money, Su Qing hasn’t changed much. He hasn’t indulged in extravagances, hasn’t bought villas or supercars, and even his usual expenses haven’t increased significantly.
The only slightly extravagant thing might be his clothes now—all luxurious brands from head to toe, inside out—put together by her own hands.
Others might engage in retaliatory spending after getting rich, but her man, after striking it rich, can’t seem to shake his earlier spending habits, which amuses her.
"Oh my, I suddenly realized that my little brother can actually be so domineering and handsome!" Seeing the phone call being hung up, Shen Yi stepped forward a bit, due to her height, she didn’t even have to stand on tiptoe and wrapped her arms around Su Qing’s neck, giving him a close hug.
She loves this feeling; even though some of Su Qing’s actions seem childish to her, this is the man she chose, so why not enjoy it? Who knows, after a few years, he might mature, and she won’t see this side anymore?
The joy of nurturing a boyfriend comes from this.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing glanced back at the door behind them, found it closed tightly, and then heaved a sigh of relief, casually swooping Shen Yi up.
Fortunately, Shen Yi was used to it; otherwise, she might have cried out.
Holding his big-sister-type girlfriend, Su Qing asked while sitting on the couch, "Offending this person... it shouldn’t be a problem, right?"
Shen Yi rolled her eyes at him and said, "It’s already like this, so be it if we offended him.
Hu Liangcai, the Deputy General Manager of Capital Huayue Company, Huayue, and our company both mainly focus on internet business, so naturally, there is competition, but don’t worry, your sister is quite capable."
Su Qing nodded; he was truly afraid that the other party had great backing, which would be problematic.
"This time, because of my issues, not only did it make you offend someone, but we also lost a collaboration project. The loss won’t be too significant, will it?"
Sensing his concern, Shen Yi shook her head and consoled, "It’s fine, doing business inevitably offends people. Do you think your sister has never offended anyone over these years? As for the loss you mentioned, it’s not a big deal; if there’s no project with him, there might be projects with others. It’s just a matter of making more or less. Besides, as you said, your sister is not short of money, so we don’t fear him, trust me, you fool!"
She said this while lightly bumping his forehead with hers, acting playfully while adding a hint of affection.
Alright, whenever Shen Yi faces him with her big-sister persona, he gets dominated completely, having a natural liking for such women.
This is the advantage of having a big sister type: understanding, intellectual, mature, stable emotionally.
"By the way, let me ask a question. If he is a Deputy General Manager, what’s your position? General Manager?"
In fact, until now, he still couldn’t figure out the organizational structure and positions within their company, just like he couldn’t figure out the ranks within the police department.
Wherever he is, he’s always the entry-level employee.
"It’s different. Although he is a Deputy General Manager, above him, there’s likely not just one General Manager. Some members of the shareholders’ meeting and the board of directors are their company’s core members. As for General Managers and Deputy General Managers, they’re just executives.
Here, it’s different. The company isn’t listed; there are just three of us shareholders, so there’s no actual hierarchical difference in position. It’s just that Miss Qing is a hands-off manager, and Little Tang focuses on the entertainment industry, not fully on the company. Naturally, I am the number one in the company.
I can refer to myself as the General Manager, Chairman, or CEO; whatever works, as long as the ranks below follow in sequence."
In simpler terms, Shen Yi’s company’s board has only three members, and with two of them not managing, she naturally takes the lead, lacking the bureaucracy of listed companies, which makes it a lot easier.
"I see, this is enlightening!"
Seeing Su Qing’s ’I see’ expression, Shen Yi felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Initially, when Su Qing was just an ordinary guy, she felt quite superior, but as this man became more outstanding, even achieving a transition from nothing to a billionaire right under her nose, Shen Yi sometimes found it hard to believe.
What followed was a sense of frustration. If Su Qing had transcended class step by step with her support, she might have felt a sense of achievement, but now it’s quite different.
Su Qing’s success is related to her, sure, but it doesn’t seem like she played a significant part. All she did was lend him money, without much involvement.
So now, being able to see that sense of admiration in Su Qing for her, she finds it deeply satisfying.
Time flew by, and another three days had passed.
During this time, he even took the time to visit the police station, following up on the final verdict of the Jiangcheng University suicide case.
It was as expected; in any case, Wei Caiwen’s parents are suing Professor Jiang, Ke Yao, and the school, preparing to go to court.
As for Ke Yao, because of her good attitude in admitting guilt and her family’s active compensation, she managed to avoid a criminal record, but that professor had it worse. He lost his job, and his wife, even at her mature age, wanted a divorce, causing quite the stir. Even his children were embarrassed.
Of course, he just went to understand the situation and took his dog Dahuang with him. But to his surprise, Du Qiang, Li Zijun, and others were all getting into stock trading, egged on by Zhu Lili. Thankfully, it wasn’t Tianchen Technology, so he didn’t interfere, just warned them not to spread false information.
Meanwhile, Tianchen Technology was still bustling; it continued its steady climb over the three days, reaching over 6 yuan.
This level of growth made many people envious, especially in such a bearish market. That this stock could perform this way was nothing short of astonishing.
However, while some were thrilled, others were miserable. As landlords and others gradually withdrew their funds, the financial institutions that bought in were suffering immensely.
Should they sell? The investment was too significant. While it might not lead to a loss, it certainly fell short of their initial expectations. But if they didn’t sell, the time predicted by Su Qing, the ’Stock God,’ was approaching fast.
Everyone knew—even if not everyone was swayed by his words, some people still chose to believe. When they all started selling, their stocks would become stuck, which would be disastrous.
"Manager, look, someone’s just sold 7 million yuan worth of stocks again today. What should we do? Should we still buy?" An employee wearing a white shirt anxiously asked at a financial institution.
Upon hearing this, the manager being questioned was troubled. Since they had entered the market, a few million stocks would be sold daily, causing them significant discomfort. Not buying might scare off stockholders; buying would further increase costs.
Looking at the date, tomorrow marked the deadline of the week Su Qing mentioned. He wasn’t sure how many people might sell.
"No more buying; wait and see what happens tomorrow. Inform all departments to get ready to act. Damn it, this is bullshit! If we keep playing this game, something might happen!"
"Understood, Manager!"
Compared to this frustration, Su Qing’s side was doing quite well.
At this moment, the landlord’s wife was visiting his home. A tablet was placed on the coffee table, and they were on a video call with Tang Nan.
"Xiao Su, you really exhausted your big sister! Do you know, just because of you, I had to plead and flatter people to get the stock sold; I almost wore my tongue out! You owe me compensation!" Tang Nan lamented, massaging her neck.
"Wore your tongue out? Oh dear, how pitiful. Why don’t you let Xiao Su lick it better for you?"
The landlord’s wife chimed in with some shocking words.
Everyone: ...
