When did Zhou Chen learn to do business?
Zhou Na really didn't know, because, as she said, she paid very little attention to Zhou Chen, and even though they had lived under the same roof, they didn't communicate much.
She admits that she was somewhat heartless and selfish in her role as a younger sister.
But she felt that being a little selfish was not wrong; if you don't even love yourself, what right do you have to love others?
People have to live for themselves.
For quite some time, she held this view.
As she entered university and gained more experience, she gradually realized that she had indeed wronged Zhou Chen in the past.
She tried, apologized to Zhou Chen, and attempted to reconcile, but unfortunately, Zhou Chen did not forgive her.
But she believes she has already taken that brave step.
Moreover, she stopped picking a fight with Zhou Chen. Now, she only sees Zhou Chen as a goal to surpass, without any thoughts of revenge.
Zhou Na voluntarily told Hao Ying about her feelings of shame towards Zhou Chen and how she had apologized to him.
"I'm not angry about the online criticism. Some of my past actions did offend him, and I deserve to be criticized, but I really didn't do anything to deliberately slander or spread rumors about him. In high school, teachers often compared me to him, telling me not to embarrass him. I always lived in his shadow, so I worked very hard to get rid of it. Later, I succeeded, but he returned to school, surpassed me, and made me a laughing stock..."
It seems that some things have been weighing on Zhou Na's heart for too long. She has never told anyone. Today, facing her only friend Hao Ying, Zhou Na doesn't want to be seen as a cold and ruthless person in Hao Ying's eyes. She wants to be like Zhou Chen, with a few trustworthy people around her, and start a business together.
So she opened her heart and spoke her mind, and once she started talking about these things, she couldn't stop.
After a while,
Zhou Na realized she had said too much and felt a little regretful. She wondered what Hao Ying would think or how she would view her if she heard this.
"Hao Ying, are you still willing to be friends with me?"
"Of course, admitting your mistakes and correcting them is the greatest virtue. Your willingness to apologize proves that you are not the ungrateful wretch described online. I believe you will definitely receive his forgiveness."
Hao Ying's answer made Zhou Na secretly breathe a sigh of relief; a weight was lifted from her heart.
As for whether Zhou Chen will forgive her?
She didn't know.
Before the afternoon economic forum began,
Zhou Chen saw Li Xiaolong, who was standing next to an old man. The old man was chatting with some government officials and business tycoons. In terms of the liveliness, it was no less than Zhou Chen's.
The two exchanged a long, distant glance.
They looked at each other and smiled.
To the uninitiated, they might seem like friends, but only those who know the full story behind their conflict realize that tension is palpable.
Even though Li Xiaolong didn't take action or actively seek trouble, some people knew that he would strike again sooner or later.
"Brother Chen, who is that old man standing next to Li Xiaolong? He seems to have a lot of influence. I've seen quite a few leaders go up to talk to him."
Wang Rui asked curiously.
Zhang Hao and Li Wei also looked curious.
Zhou Chen smiled and explained that the old man was the current head of the Li family. Everyone then realized that it made sense; since he was the leader of the Li family, it was understandable.
Otherwise, given Li Xiaolong's status alone, so many people wouldn't have taken the initiative to greet him.
"Brother Chen, since he's family, wouldn't Li Xiaolong use this opportunity to retaliate against you or anything like that?"
Wang Rui's expression suddenly changed, as if he had realized something.
And you know what? As soon as these words were spoken,
Not only did Zhang Hao and Li Wei frown, but Xu Dalong, Lu Ye, and Li Kaile also became serious instantly. They could also see that Li Xiaolong's maternal grandfather had extraordinary connections. Although not as exaggerated as the Li family, his network of connections was not weak either. At least they did not have such treatment.
Despite owning so many companies and being a provincial top scorer, Zhou Chen couldn't get those people to be so polite and flattering.
This shows that the Li family is no ordinary family.
Seeing the solemn expressions on everyone's faces, Zhou Chen chuckled softly, "What's meant to happen will happen, there's no escaping it. Don't worry too much, we'll just deal with whatever comes our way."
Zhou Chen's words left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.
Immediately, they all became less serious. They still had great faith in Zhou Chen's strength. So what if his opponent was the head of the Li family in Hong Kong? He wouldn't necessarily suffer a loss.
Furthermore, even if the Li family launches another attack at this economic forum, what can they possibly achieve?
Zhou Chen's relaxed and casual demeanor was like a shot in the arm, making everyone feel much more at ease.
Just as everyone's mood was starting to improve...
The scene of Zhou Ling, Zhao Kun, and Zhou Chuan walking past them so openly caused the atmosphere to instantly quiet down.
Zhou Chen frowned slightly.
These guys are like ghosts, I keep running into them wherever I go.
Zhou Chen had to admit he admired Zhou Ling and her group for managing to sneak into such an economic forum.
wrong,
Perhaps it wasn't because they snuck in, but because of Li Xiaolong.
In an instant, Zhou Chen understood why Zhou Ling and the others were here. It was probably because Li Xiaolong wanted them to be spectators, to jump out and annoy him when necessary.
Although Li Xiaolong is young, he is very clever and has a knack for using disgusting tactics. Ordinary people are easily manipulated.
That is, Zhou Chen, can be completely indifferent.
After all, in his mind, Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan were nothing but clowns, and only Zhou Na was slightly better, but she was still just a bigger clown.
At the previous dinner party, the three ingrates gathered together, and now at this economic forum, all three siblings are still present.
But this was exactly what Zhou Chen wanted.
Slapping one face is the same as slapping two faces, so since they're all here, let's slap them all at once.
He now wanted to see when Li Xiaolong would force him into the game.
Get him to agree to a stock bet to determine the winner.
Zhou Chen thought that Li Xiaolong would endure it for a day, and then launch an attack on him on the second or even third day of the forum.
Unexpectedly,
Just after the first day of the forum ended and they had finished dinner, Li Xiaolong made his move.
Before the crowd had left, he picked up the microphone, stood in front of the stage, and directly mentioned Zhou Chen's name. He first laid out a lot about how good Zhou Chen was at stock trading, and then revealed his true intentions: under the guise of seeking advice, he wanted to have a stock trading contest.
Without any beating around the bush,
Direct to the point of being extremely direct.
Zhou Chen had to look at Li Xiaolong with new respect for his straightforward approach; he really liked this decisive style.
