Chapter 49: They have good vision but they are not a good choice
Seeing Ju Jinghuan standing in front of her seat, many of the girls who had been eager to invite him sighed in disappointment. They had originally wanted to invite him. Although Ju Jinghuan wasn't as dazzling as the F4, he had a good family background, was handsome, and was gentle. Even if an invitation didn't come through, he was still a gentle person. Many girls in his class and neighboring classes had a good impression of him.
However, looking at him like this, everyone knew what was going on: he had taken a fancy to the transfer student.
"She's so lucky! She has a close relationship with F4 and was even invited by Ju Jinghuan. It's good to be beautiful."
"When I saw her face, I thought she was the type that boys would like. She was soft and delicate, with a slightly cool temperament, especially like the second female lead in a TV drama."
"That's great! You were still worried about what would happen if Master Bai didn't choose them. Wouldn't that be embarrassing? Look, Ju Jinghuan has already invited them."
The whispers around him drifted into the ears of the person involved. Ju Jinghuan's face turned even redder, and his pair of clear, light brown eyes stared at Fu Liangxia with a gentle smile, just the right amount to avoid any resentment.
As if noticing Fu Liangxia's daze, he raised his hand and touched the back of his neck, saying gently, "You can take your time to think about it. If you promise me, I will follow Fu's wishes in whatever direction we go."
Ju Jinghuan blinked, his long eyelashes fluttering, like a gentle and harmless lop-eared rabbit, inexplicably well-behaved.
There was a humming sound from behind my head, which seemed to come from my nose.
From this angle, only Su Xingshu can see it.
Fu Liangxia ignored him and said with a curved lip: "Sounds good."
Seeing this, Bai Xin beside him suddenly spoke slowly: "I feel that the seaside is a very suitable place for painting, and watching the sunrise on the top of the mountain can easily inspire people's inspiration."
Bai Yan understood what he meant immediately and continued, "Didn't Xiao Xia say that class time is also possible? Perfect, let's go camping together. You can be our model and earn some extra money at the same time."
Ju Jinghuan frowned slightly when he heard this: "You want to work even though you're going out to play? Are you capitalists?"
Bai Xin leaned back in his chair, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Aren't you?"
How many of them who can sit here are not capitalists? It is really funny for him to ask this question.
Bai Xin, or Xiao A, looked at the man and woman standing and sitting next to them. The man was gentle and bright, and the woman was pretty and beautiful. They looked like a well-matched campus couple, but for some reason they were a bit annoying.
He had an impression of Ju Jinghuan, who was also from their circle. While working in the livelihood industry might seem tedious, the hidden profits were not to be underestimated. However, if he only had this level of ability and wanted to compete with them for talent, it would not be enough.
Fu Liangxia was still talking to the other party. Ju Jinghuan was asking her about the hourly wage for working for them. After getting a numerical answer, the other party showed a surprised expression and glanced at the two of them. Xiao A could feel the condemnation in the eyes.
——You are so rich, why do you only offer such a meager salary?
What is incredible is that Fu Liangxia, who is also from the wealthy class, actually agreed.
However, Ju Jinghuan soon figured it out himself. Not to mention the hourly wage, with Bai Xin and Bai Yan themselves, there were already many people who wanted to be their models. Not to mention not asking for money, they would even pay for it.
That's the Bai family! Just by building a good relationship, chatting them up, and letting them slip a little information, they can make a fortune.
It seemed that he had been staring at the two of them for a while. Ju Jinghuan suddenly whispered something. Fu Liangxia turned to look at him and said doubtfully, "Haven't you always been in the same group with Su Xingshu before? Why are you suddenly switching to me? Su Xingshu won't be happy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone from the back: "I will indeed be unhappy."
Fu Liangxia nodded with an expression that said, "Look, let me tell you." Then, he heard the person behind him say, "But it has nothing to do with the Bai family. They can team up with whoever they want."
She turned her head with a puzzled look in her eyes, not noticing that Ju Jinghuan and Bai Xin, who were sitting above her head, both frowned slightly when they heard her words.
What Su Xingshu meant was already clear.
He lifted his eyelids to glance at Ju Jinghuan above him, then glanced at Bai Yan who was watching the show and Bai Xin who had a cold expression on his face, and said with a curled lip: "They are not good choices."
Fu Liangxia looked at him: "They are not good choices, so who does Su Shao think is?"
When Su Xingshu discovered that this person had a yin and yang to him, he liked to call him Su Shao. But her voice was soft and pleasant, and the simple "Su Shao" could make people feel soft in their hearts.
"Of course it's me." He said as a matter of course.
"Oh——" Fu Liangxia drew out the tone, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.
Haha, he said it so righteously, it turns out he wanted to be in the same group with her.
Su Xingshu choked, noticing the teasing smile on the other person's face. A slight stiffness flashed across his face, but then he regained his righteous expression and said in a resolute voice, "It's obvious that I am the best choice. After all, we have your brother in our team."
He raised his hand and pointed at Fu Liedong next to him. Fu Liedong was touched by the sudden honor: "Brother Su..."
The next second, Fu Liangxia gave him a cold look and he fell silent.
She said casually, "Even if Fu Liedong is here, so what? Can he carry me up the mountain or hold an umbrella for me to block the sun? He's useless."
The disgust in the last few words almost turned into a sharp sword and pierced through Fu Liedong's body. His expression froze and he said hurtly: "Sister——"
"Am I wrong?" Fu Liangxia glared at him, "When have you never chosen him over your good brother Su and me?"
This one sentence left Fu Liedong speechless.
However, the appeal in her words caught the attention of the others. Ju Jinghuan took the initiative and said gently, "If Fu needs it, I can carry you up the mountain and provide you with shade."
As he spoke, a hint of shyness appeared on his face: "I exercise regularly, so carrying someone up the mountain is nothing. Mr. Fu is in poor health, so it's only natural for me to help block out the sun."
He reacted too quickly and blocked Su Xingshu from saying anything.
Su Xingshu wanted to say that anyone could do this, but the other party had already seized the initiative, and nothing he said at this time would be as effective as his.
And this time, someone else beat him to the punch while he was hesitating about what to say.
Bai Yan rested his chin on the table with one hand, and said with a smile, "My brother and I can do these things too. Besides, there are two of us, so one of us can carry you on our backs while the other holds the umbrella."
There seemed to be gasps all around, obviously no one expected Bai Yan to be able to do this.
Everyone who had been secretly eavesdropping couldn't help but wonder what charm this Fu Liangxia possessed that could cause four people to fight for her. Furthermore, her words seemed quite heated, and now she was even promising to be as devoted as a slave.
Su Xingshu stared at Bai Yan, his eyes a little angry. Why did this guy love to watch the fun so much? He had to get involved, right?
"What do you want again?"
"Why is it none of my business?" Bai Yan looked at Fu Liangxia with a smile, "This is our precious model."
Fu Liangxia was dazzled by his gaze. Before she could speak, the person in the back seat spoke for her, "Baby, you're only paying this much for a model? It's not even as much as someone can earn in an hour trading stocks."
She tilted her head in confusion when she heard that, and saw Su Xingshu raise his chin: "Zhongcheng Steel? You have a good eye."
As soon as the words "Zhongcheng Steel" came out, everyone's eyes changed.
Perhaps they were just watching the excitement, but upon hearing about this recent stock sensation, their eyes lit up with sympathy. Most of those present were second-generation conglomerates, and they kept a close eye on the market, so it was normal for them to occasionally sell a few stocks. But Zhongcheng Steel was different. Even those who didn't follow stocks had heard about its recent performance.
Scandals broke out one after another, the candidates they supported almost lost the election, stock prices plummeted, and investors who had bet on them jumped off buildings overnight.
But “good vision”?
Everyone wondered how picking a stock like this could be considered good judgment. Perhaps it was true a week ago when the candidate was at the top of the list, but the current price… they felt Su Xingshu was playing both sides rather than genuinely praising them.
Now everyone who bought Zhongcheng Steel has lost money. Unless she is bearish, but this operation is much more difficult than bullish.
After all, not long ago, Zhongcheng Steel was considered a blue chip stock by many investors. What kind of expert would be needed to foresee its current decline? A fortune teller, perhaps?
Of course, there are also traders with a keen eye who can see some tricks, but they have been immersed in the stock market for many years, so how can a high school student be compared with them?
Everyone was not optimistic, and felt that Su Xingshu's words were more like ridicule than genuine praise.
However, only Fu Liangxia knew that the other party must be praising him sincerely. But how could he know?
She glanced at Fu Liedong, and then remembered that she had not told anyone about her stock purchase, so the other party should not know about it.
How did Su Xingshu get the news?
She pondered for a long time, and only remembered that she had looked at stocks in the library last week, but she was sure that Su Xingshu was not around. Because with his influence, if he was really there, he would have been surrounded by people.
"Wang Ziwei saw it. He was sitting behind you at the time, and your computer didn't have a privacy screen protector," he said. "He likes to do those things, and when he saw you looking at it, he took a few glances."
That explains it.
but--
"How do you know I'm short?" she asked.
Su Xingshu stared at her intently, an unexplained emotion flickering through his eyes. "You don't seem like someone who just wants to make a little money. Zhongcheng Steel is a good stock, and even if you buy it at a high price, you'll only make a few hundred thousand in pocket money. If you really want to make money, you wouldn't choose it."
She looks weak on the outside, but her eyes always reveal a hint of sharpness, reminding people of an eagle in the sky, which will only attack when it is sure that it can catch its prey, and kill with one blow.
Such a person would not do something stupid like chasing high prices. On the contrary, Su Xingshu felt that she was more like a gambler who was taking chances.
Hearing this, Fu Liangxia smiled, but didn't say yes or no, only said: "Thank you for thinking highly of me."
But the conversation between the two still clearly revealed one meaning - Fu Liangxia actually chose to short sell when most people were chasing high prices. What a terrifying vision and courage!
Even the students who initially questioned why so many people were vying for her were silenced. Regardless of the reason, her abilities alone had already attracted quite a few people to her.
Saint Lande was a small social scene, and their focus wasn't just on making friends; it was also on selecting partners or those who could benefit the family. Fu Liangxia's current level of skill, even without the Fu family behind him, was enough to earn him a seat at the same negotiating table.
With a smart mind and extraordinary courage, you can achieve success in most situations.
