Chapter 283 Guaranteed Profit
It was as if a flash of lightning flashed through Zhou Yaokun's mind, and some vague fragments of memory that had been buried for a long time began to surge.
It was the night when they were skiing in Switzerland. Jiang Ziyi fell and was injured. He asked the people who were traveling with him to send Jiang Ziyi away first because she was crying and screaming in pain. He thought she was seriously injured and didn't take care of himself.
But after everyone left, he realized that his leg seemed to be broken, and only then did he feel the excruciating pain.
So he was stuck in the same place.
It was freezing cold, his leg injured, and he couldn't move. His phone had broken in the chaos, and he cried out to heaven and earth, but no one answered. Icy snowflakes fell continuously on him, his body temperature gradually drained away, and his consciousness began to blur.
Just when he thought he was about to die, a blurry figure appeared in his sight.
The person was wearing a thick down jacket, a hat and a scarf, so his face was not clear. I only remember that she (he) took a lot of effort to drag him out of the snow.
He was so cold he was almost unconscious, and he only vaguely remembered the person whispering in his ear, encouraging him and keeping him awake. The voice was gentle, like the warm sun on a winter day, giving him the strength to persevere.
Then... he completely lost consciousness.
When he woke up, he was already in the hospital. The doctor said that a passing hiker had spotted him and called the police. If he had been any later, he might have frozen to death in the mountains.
He had always believed that some unknown kind-hearted hiker had saved him, and he had tried to look for him, but to no avail. This incident, along with the painful memory, was buried deep in his heart.
Later, when Jiang Ziyi saw that his broken leg could not be healed, she broke up with him and left him. His world collapsed, not just because he was dumped by a woman, but also because his true heart and even his life were betrayed.
The pain made him despair and even lost the support to be positive.
And now, Yan Ning took out this button...
Zhou Yaokun suddenly remembered that when the "hiker" dragged him out, he seemed to have used too much force and the buttons on his clothes were pulled off by the car door.
He stared at the button intently, then slowly raised his head and looked at Yan Ning. The shock and disbelief in his eyes almost overwhelmed him.
His lips moved a few times, and his voice became dry and hoarse due to excitement: "You...it's you?"
Yan Ning looked at his shocked expression and finally smiled faintly, her eyes slightly red. She nodded, her voice choked with sobs: "Yes, it's me."
How could it be her?
How could it be her!
Zhou Yaokun's mind was blank, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand. Shock, ecstasy, heartache... countless complex emotions intertwined and collided in his chest, and finally turned into a surging warm current, flowing through his limbs and bones.
He always thought that the beginning of his relationship with Yan Ning was because he met her by chance after being heartbroken by Jiang Ziyi for many years, and his heart was pounding at some point during their daily interactions.
But he could never have imagined that so long ago, in the darkest and most miserable moment of his life, it was she who, like a ray of light, illuminated his world and pulled him back from the brink of death.
It turned out that their fate was not a "spur of the moment" as he thought, but was destined.
"Why...why didn't you tell me earlier?" Zhou Yaokun's voice trembled. He stretched out his arms, pulled Yan Ning into his arms, and hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.
Yan Ning leaned on his chest, listening to his drum-like heartbeat, and whispered, "Because I just remembered that the night before I came back from France, I recovered this memory in my dream.
After I saved you, I fell ill myself, with a sudden fever. I recovered, and even that part of my memory disappeared. Even if I remember it, it's not a significant thing."
"Important! How can it not be important!" Zhou Yaokun's voice suddenly rose. He held her face and forced her to look at him, his eyes reddening. "Yan Ning, this is so important to me!"
He lowered his head and kissed her lips eagerly and clumsily.
This kiss was different from any previous intimacy. It brought with it an indescribable ecstasy, a cherishment that went deep into the bones, and also a slight tremor of fear.
He couldn't imagine how much he would have missed out on his precious wife if she hadn't been there that day, if he had died in that snowy ravine.
…
On the other side, Haicheng.
After visiting Zhou Yaokun, Huo Yanting and Xi Zhi returned to their own city.
After the plane landed, the two did not go home, but went directly to the company. Huo Yanting had a cross-border video conference to attend, and Xizhi wanted to take this opportunity to sort out her recent investments and assets.
In the spacious and bright president's office, Huo Yanting was holding a meeting in the conference room, while Xi Zhi occupied a corner of his desk, concentrating on looking at the data report on the laptop.
The several companies and investment projects under her name were all operating well, and her assets were growing steadily. Looking at the strings of numbers, Xizhi showed a satisfied smile on her face.
When Huo Yanting came out of the meeting, he saw his wife smiling at the computer screen like a cat that had eaten honey.
He curled his lips silently, walked over, put his arms around her waist from behind, and rested his chin lightly on her shoulder.
"What are you looking at so happily?"
The warm breath spread beside her ears, and Xizhi shrank her neck in itchiness. She turned around and looked at him with a smile: "I'm summing up my small treasury. Mr. Huo, your wife is also a small wealthy woman now."
Huo Yanting chuckled, kissed her cheek, glanced at the table on the screen, and then asked casually, "Do you want to buy some stocks?"
Xizhi was stunned when she heard this.
Although she had some experience in financial investment, most of it was in the real economy or low-risk funds. She had never been exposed to high-risk, high-return things like stocks.
"Stocks? I don't quite understand the rules..." She hesitated, "Besides, what if I lose money?"
It’s not that she can’t afford to have fun, but she is naturally cautious about uncertain things.
"I'm afraid of losing money." She raised her head and expressed her concerns honestly.
Seeing the cautiousness in her clear eyes, Huo Yanting's heart softened. He wondered how his wife could be so cute.
He lowered his head, put his thin lips close to her ear, and gently uttered three words in a bewitching yet extremely confident tone.
“Guaranteed profit.”
