Xie Yin didn't want Xing Zhengfei to bother him, so Xing Zhengfei showed his filial piety in his own way.
Jiang Shuyin frequently receives transfers from strangers, each time from a different person. The first time might have been a mistake, but what about the seventh and eighth time? She tried calling back, but received no reply.
I first sent a message to Xing Zhengfei to ask, and sure enough, it was him.
"Keep the money you earn for yourself."
"Your money is yours. I've earned a lot, and I want you to help me spend it."
Xing Zhengfei thought about it for a moment. He hadn't done anything particularly bad; after all, he had saved someone. He chatted with her for a while, feeling at ease. After his mother hung up, he stood up and excitedly clenched his fists, pacing back and forth in the basement.
Jiang Shu raised an eyebrow. Of course, she should spend the money her son gave her. She called out, "Mom, don't cook today. Let's eat out."
Zheng Lanxiang hasn't been in a good mood lately, and when she heard that she wanted to go out to eat, she put on a stern face and asked, "Who's paying?"
"Your grandson is very filial, so go happily." Jiang Shuyin knew that she had misunderstood and thought it was Jiang Jianli's child's one-month celebration, so she smiled and didn't point it out.
Zheng Lanxiang's face lit up with joy, and she even went to the bedroom to change into some smart clothes.
I took Heimei and Shuining to a restaurant and ordered four dishes and a soup. We couldn't finish them, so we packed them up and reheated them.
At 7 p.m. sharp, Zheng Lanxiang would watch the news. Ever since she had benefited from it a few times, she would sit on the sofa and watch it without fail at the broadcast time.
The headline is about the Shule tribe. The host, without any personal emotion, reports to everyone: "Recently, the Shule tribe, which has maintained good diplomatic relations with us, has welcomed its second heir. It is understood that this heir is the son of the first heir. According to the tradition of the Shule tribe, children who have not been raised cannot reveal their identities. Now that he has returned to his rightful place, let's watch today's inauguration ceremony together."
The scene then shifts to the on-site interview team, who were invited and were positioned nearby, with the cameraman setting up a large lens to frame the shot.
After taking a series of photos and reviewing them, the photographer thought to himself: Regardless of what people are like in private, on the surface, the leader and the two heirs seem to have a harmonious relationship. But this First Lady, Gu Xiao, is one of their people, so how come she can't even put on a show?
Since he was one of their own, the cameraman had to be quite skilled to get to this position. He filmed and edited the footage on the spot, making Gu Xiao's face look somewhat presentable, lifting the corners of her mouth to give her a smile, before sending it to the editorial department.
The live stream footage only showed her figure from a distance, so Zheng Lanxiang didn't recognize her and couldn't guess who she was.
The headlines later featured photos of Ace dressed in a suit, standing nearly 1.7 meters tall, only a head shorter than his father. He had a dedicated styling team and looked like a young domineering CEO with a cool demeanor.
It looks so different from before that almost no one recognizes it except for those in the know.
The three generations in the photo all have a cool face, standing together as if they're competing to see who's the most ruthless.
Jiang Shuyin watched the live stream and read the headlines, and felt relieved. She knew that his departure was the right thing to do. Back with Avery, the people and things he encountered were completely different.
That is indeed the case.
Avery is now preparing to hand over a project to him and take him to meetings all over the world. Since Ace doesn't understand the technical terms, he studies extra hard on the quantum computer at night.
The diligence of Avery was a little worrying for his mental health. He and Ace were still living in a small tent, and the father and son would talk late into the night.
Avery sat cross-legged beside him: "What have you been learning lately?"
"Finance." Ace frowned. "I've read a lot, but I don't seem to fully understand it."
Avery smiled and said, "Perhaps it's because you lack practical experience. You're afraid to do anything behind closed doors. I'll recommend a game to you. It's fun and you can learn something from it."
He opened a software called "Stocks" and said to his son, "The basic gameplay of this game is to buy low and sell high. Since playing this game, all the information and what everyone says has become tools and prompts for this game. Next is the tutorial."
He casually opened an old entertainment news article—Mrs. Xu's daughter-in-law had deceived the public using an unfinished medical facility; the fourth meeting ended with her being purged, leaving her with huge debts and a bankruptcy order...
"See that?" Avery pulled up the stock market trends for the day and pointed to a few points. Ace nodded, his eyes focused.
Avery then opened Mrs. Xu's husband's company and bought up all the loose stocks that had been showing continuous declines: "I heard that Mrs. Xu's daughter-in-law has secretly divorced, but the agreement will not be announced for another six months. This is a good opportunity to buy. It may not be the best, but the emotions you need to overcome in this game are greed and fear. You should act when you should and stop when you should."
The result wasn't immediately apparent. After that day, Ace would check the stock his father had bought every day, and after just two days it began to slowly climb, exceeding the original purchase price after half a month.
Ace went over and asked, "When will it be sold?"
Avery turned off the microphone and camera in the video conference: "Mrs. Xu's husband's family is in the real economy. Their earning power is average, but their risk resistance is strong. You can keep it and continue to grow it. You can sell it if you think it's time to sell, or you can continue to buy when the opportunity arises."
Ace took this to heart and became much more outgoing afterward. Sometimes, after a meeting, he would strike up a conversation with people. Many people, seeing his young age, and of course, mostly because of Schuler, were willing to have more interaction with him.
Time is a river that cannot be reversed; some people are pushed forward, while others swim forward with all their might.
With the full moon celebration just around the corner, Jiang Jianli hadn't received a definite answer from his daughter when she called again, determined to put an end to things.
Jiang Shuyin looked at the phone, a forced smile on her face. "Tell me, why aren't you living a good life? What are you doing?"
She was so bored that she took on a big assignment to go to the African desert, so she used up her vacation time at home in advance.
Jiang Jianli talked for about ten minutes, using both hard and soft tactics, while Jiang Shu replied in ten seconds: "I'll go."
