After the call connected, He Jinnian asked with a grin, "Brother, are your injuries getting any better?"

Tao Jin and He Jinnian have been friends for many years, and Tao Jin knows him to some extent.

Tao Jin said unhurriedly, "Stop talking nonsense and just say what you have to say."

He Jinnian clicked his tongue, "How can you be so ungrateful? We care about you, and you don't even appreciate it."

"Sigh, it's nothing, I'm hanging up."

"No, no, no! Something's happened, something really important."

He Jinnian was afraid that he would hang up, so he quickly told him about Su Yan's plan to buy stocks, "I'm worried that the girl might make a mistake on impulse, so I called to ask you if you should try to persuade her."

It was also because Su Yan was his grandfather's savior; otherwise, why would he care so much about an outsider?

"I could tell my second sister was very determined; she was absolutely determined to buy it," he added.

Tao Jin thought for a few seconds and asked in confusion, "How did she know that these two stocks would definitely skyrocket?"

"I don't know about that, I forgot to ask earlier. The main thing is that the two stocks she wants to buy, as you know, have been falling all the time, and they don't look like they're going to surge at all. I suggest you call and try to persuade your second sister."

Tao Jin remained silent.

He had known Su Yan for a long time and knew her quite well; she wasn't an impulsive person.

She won't do anything she's not sure about; on the contrary, she always knows how to conduct herself appropriately.

If Su Yan were the kind of person who lacks common sense, she wouldn't have been able to settle down in the capital with her family in such a short time.

Why is she so insistent on buying these two stocks? Could it be that... she has some inside information?

After a long silence, he finally spoke up after He Jinnian's nagging: "I'll buy it too, I'll buy a million."

"What?!" He Jinnian thought he had misheard. After realizing what he had said, he quickly replied, "No, brother, I told you to go and persuade Second Sister. Why are you meddling in this instead? Are you serious?"

Tao Jin emptied most of his family fortune to invest in real estate, and it's still unknown whether he'll make a profit or a loss, so this million is a considerable sum for him.

“Ayan isn’t someone who acts without thinking, I trust her.” Tao Jin said calmly, “Have you seen the real estate news in Shenzhen? Companies that invested in real estate a couple of years ago made a fortune, which shows that Ayan didn’t act on impulse.”

He Jinnian choked, and his initial doubts about Su Yan began to waver.

Tao Jin continued, "I'll transfer the money to your account in a bit. Listen to her, buy it on the 26th. Is there anything else?"

"No, that's all," He Jinnian said absentmindedly.

"I'll hang up now, and remind you to buy stocks on the 26th."

He Jinnian was extremely conflicted.

Looking back now, Su Yan was so serious when she told him about this; she didn't seem impulsive.

Could it be that my second sister really has some inside information?

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Why didn't I ask her that earlier?"

He Jinnian thought for a moment, then picked up his phone and made two calls to inquire about the situation of the two stocks. The answers he received were not optimistic, which made him even more conflicted about whether to buy them following Su Yan's lead.

If I were to buy, should I buy more or less?

He was worried about losing money if he bought too much, and he was also worried that if he bought too little, the price might really skyrocket as Su Yan had said, and he would probably regret not buying more.

After all, playing the stock market is indeed the fastest way to make money, but it is also an extremely risky business.

Su Yan was unaware of He Jinnian's conflicted thoughts. In the last few days before the start of the semester, she spent every day running back and forth between the hospital and home. At night, she also had to memorize the tasks assigned by her second senior brother and prepare the clothing design drafts for the next season.

On the morning before she left for Guangzhou, she finally received a call from her master.

She had just gotten up and was packing her luggage when she heard Master Jue's voice and couldn't help but complain, "Master, how busy are you? How come you don't even have time to answer a phone call?"

During this period, she would call her master almost every two days, but no one answered.

If her three senior brothers hadn't shown no concern, she would have been filled with wild speculation that something had happened to their master.

“This place is a closed area, and my phone has to be handed in for safekeeping. I had a little free time today, and since you start school tomorrow, I applied for a phone and called you. But you, you didn’t even bother to check on me after answering the phone.” Old Master Jue snorted coldly, annoyed.

Su Yan quickly admitted her mistake, "Okay, okay, it's all my fault, Master, please don't hold it against me."

"That's more like it." Old Master Jue laughed. "You'll be taking the grade skipping exam when school starts. Don't embarrass your teacher. Do your best and don't be careless, understand?"

The major combining Chinese and Western learning was established this year, and Su Yan is the only student in her cohort. Since Su Yan is the only one who skipped a grade, the school's requirements for her will only be higher. Su Yan has no choice but to rely on her own abilities; there is absolutely no room for luck.

"I know, I wouldn't dare to embarrass you. If I fail to skip a grade, I'm worried you'll kick me out of the sect."

Old Master Jue chuckled, "I won't kick you out of the sect, but you must never say that I am your master when you go out in the future. I don't want to lose face in my old age. I didn't assign you any tasks this winter vacation, but your second senior brother should have arranged some, right? Tell me what you've learned so I can see where you are on your progress."

Su Yan recounted all the study tasks Ye Feixu had assigned her in order.

Ye Feixu was very strict with her and would not show any leniency just because she was his junior sister. Su Yan felt that the task he gave her was two levels more difficult than the one given by her master. Not only was it difficult to memorize, but the content was also obscure and hard to understand.

After listening, Jue Lao hissed and laughed angrily, "Your second senior brother treats you as a genius, and I'm sure you can feel the difficulty."

"Yes, my memory is better at night. I usually start memorizing after dinner and after understanding the content. It takes me all night to barely memorize it, and I have to go through it again when I wake up the next day so that I won't forget it."

"You mean you understand and memorize all the tasks Fei Xu assigned you?" Jue Lao's tone was somewhat surprised.

He knew that Su Yan had excellent talent in all aspects, but the task Ye Feixu assigned to her was one he planned to have Su Yan work with next year, because he felt that given Su Yan's current level of understanding of traditional Chinese medicine, it was still a bit too difficult for her, and he was worried that she wouldn't be able to fully grasp the knowledge.

Su Yan said, "Yes, I did find it very difficult at first. When my second senior brother assigned me the second set of questions, I almost gave up because I was memorizing them, but I still persevered."

She knew that being Jue Lao's disciple would certainly not be easy.

Now that she has become her master's disciple, she should be mentally prepared to face all difficulties head-on.

Besides, her three senior brothers were so good to her. If they could master the knowledge, why couldn't she? How could she possibly give up?
