No matter how she pretended to be blacked out by drinking last night and didn't mention that incident, her expression and movements when she looked at Chen Ya were like "looking at the person who kissed her."
These cannot be concealed.
After a few dishes were served, Gu Yuqing finally got to the point: "Today my family gave me an ultimatum. If I continue to act recklessly and not do anything serious, I'm afraid I'll be sent to get married."
Chen Ya picked up a pickle with his chopsticks and asked, "Who are you marrying? The one from yesterday?"
"Not necessarily, but I will get married anyway. My family has a lot of options because there are many people pursuing me."
"Okay, I get it. There are a lot of people pursuing you." Chen Ya repeated the key point, indicating that he was really impressed. "But does this have anything to do with me?"
"It has something to do with you. I can't say how much, but it's definitely related," Gu Yuqing said. "In short, if I want you to avoid being handed over to someone else, your company must achieve a 115% profit within six months."
"Half a year?" Chen Ya tilted his head and asked, "To be able to achieve such high profits so quickly, are you forcing me to open a casino?"
"Opening a casino is illegal."
"I know that opening a casino is illegal, but Miss Gu, how did I get involved in the conflict between you and your family?" Chen Ya was a little speechless.
What made him even more speechless was - is this what they call "somewhat related"?
"So, we're now tied together," Gu Yuqing said, a cherry in her mouth, moist between her lips and teeth, looking very tempting. "In half a year, either you fail to achieve this goal and return my $100 million, becoming a deadbeat, and I get married crying, or we elope."
"Why do both of your 'either's' have bad results?"
Gu Yuqing continued, "If we eloped, we would be a poor couple, penniless, working in a restaurant to make a living. I would have to go to work even with a big belly. In a few years, I would have given birth to three children and worry about my future every day..."
"There's no other entertainment every day, just making babies, right?"
"Yes, the poorer we are, the more we do it. Every night, it's dark and we do it all day long. Both me and my bed are screaming and screaming like a mess..."
She seemed really desperate, so desperate that she started talking nonsense and couldn't stop telling dirty jokes, which was somewhat like a revengeful way of venting her emotions.
However, Chen Ya sat very properly and didn't dare to move.
He was afraid that two dark-faced men would suddenly jump out from here, knock him unconscious with a stick, and shout "Haha, we caught him in the act!"
…
Chen Ya said, "If you felt that this goal was unattainable, why didn't you agree to the family's conditions?"
Gu Yuqing shook her head, slapped her hands on the table, and said angrily:
"That's the problem. My family has no intention of negotiating with me. The so-called conditions are just a pretense of democracy."
Chen Ya said, "You have so much money, why do you still have to listen to your family? Even if you quit your job now and put the money in the bank, you will never be able to spend it all in your lifetime."
Gu Yuqing smiled bitterly: "You underestimate the Gu family a little bit. Do you think I can ignore it?"
"You can accept having three children after eloping and worrying about your livelihood every day. Can your family persecute you any worse than this?"
Gu Yuqing took a big bite of the cherry and said, "That's fake. All I can accept is making babies every day. I've never been poor since I was a child, and I've never experienced what it's like to be poor. And I never want to know what it's like in my whole life."
She stared at Chen Ya fiercely, her eyes seemed to say "You'd better not let me taste what poverty is like."
Chen Ya spread his hands in frustration. He wanted to say: What does this have to do with me?
"So, has your company's project started? If not, you can give up now," Gu Yuqing said. "I still have a few ways to make a profit in the short term. Let me take over now."
Chen Ya wanted to shake his head and refuse, but then he changed his mind and asked curiously, "What do you think?"
"Let's trade in cryptocurrencies." Gu Yuqing said.
For a moment, Chen Ya thought she was making dirty jokes again.
But then he understood what she meant.
"It's been several years, and you're still speculating in cryptocurrencies?" Chen Ya laughed. "The crypto world is so chaotic, isn't entering it just like gambling?"
Gu Yuqing said: "No, we can make a virtual currency ourselves. I have a way to hype it up and cash it out at a high point."
"How desperate are you? Aren't you afraid of being caught and thrown in jail?"
"No, I bought the plane ticket in advance and will go directly abroad. If you think the prison food is not tasty, you can come with me."
"Isn't that still just elopement?" Chen Ya smiled bitterly. "All tactics have turned into elopement, right?"
"This is the only way now." Gu Yuqing looked helpless.
There are more than just Bitcoin in the so-called virtual currencies. There are countless others like the inexplicable Dogecoin.
In 2023 of the original Earth timeline, the mainstream virtual currencies include BTC, ETH, BNB, DOT, ADA, USDT and more than a dozen others.
There are probably hundreds or even thousands of non-mainstream virtual currencies.
The idea behind many rebirth novels is to go back to the past, buy Bitcoin, and then wait to get rich.
In fact, if the cryptocurrency world were really that simple, everyone would have become rich collectively long ago.
The cryptocurrency world is a financial casino, and cryptocurrency speculation is essentially gambling. Many people lose everything overnight.
The most basic way to play is mining, and the slightly more advanced way is buying, selling, shorting, and longing, and watching the market.
A more advanced way of playing is to use large funds to lead the trend, with bulls beating bears and bears beating bulls; or to use the time difference to take advantage of the tiny price difference between transactions.
