The group finally left.
Ma Yunfei straightened his clothes and said dejectedly, "Sigh! I've done something wrong and now I'm getting no credit. What bad luck!"
Ma Yunfei walked out of the securities brokerage and was about to return to his hotel to rest when, as he turned a corner, someone suddenly grabbed the back of his collar. Before he could react, a dagger was pressed against his neck.
Ma Yunfei composed himself and asked, "Who are you? What do you want?"
"Hmph! Just an hour ago, I warned you not to mess with Xiao Xu, otherwise, today would be your death anniversary."
Ma Yunfei recognized the voice; it belonged to that burly young man.
At this moment, with the dagger pressed against his neck, the burly young man could easily sever his trachea with just a little force.
Ma Yunfei calmly said, "Brother, don't wrongly kill an innocent person. If you see me walking down the street with Xiao Xu, or eating together, or watching a movie together, then you can kill me then. Right now, you don't have any evidence at all. Aren't you just playing matchmaker?"
The burly young man asked coldly, "You really didn't have any designs on Xiao Xu?"
"Sigh! I've stated my position time and time again, but you just won't believe me. All I can say is: it's not too late to kill me once you have the evidence."
The young man removed the dagger from Ma Yunfei's neck and threatened, "I'll believe you this time."
In the blink of an eye, Ma Yunfei executed a back throw, pinning the burly young man to the ground.
He snatched the dagger, then tore off his belt and used it to tightly bind the burly young man.
Ma Yunfei asked the owner of a nearby shop to call the police.
The burly young man said with deep regret, "You...you tricked me with a clever escape plan, I won't let you get away with this!"
“Kid, you’ve threatened me again and again. No matter how many times I explain, you just won’t let go. I’ve been forced into this situation, so I have no choice but to send you to the detention center for a few days.”
A short while later, a police car drove up.
Ma Yunfei recounted the entire incident to the police.
The police questioned people in nearby shops, and the information they received confirmed Ma Yunfei's statement.
The police handcuffed the burly young man and put him in a police car.
The burly young man said angrily, "You surnamed Ma, I'm not finished with you!"
This statement further confirms Ma Yunfei's report.
Ma Yunfei returned to the hotel and immediately called Xiao Xu to tell him about his experience that day.
Xiao Xu choked up as he said, "This morning, more than twenty of my creditors came to me. When they heard about the suicide attempt, they pressed me to tell them how much I had lost. I told them the truth about entrusting my securities account to you for management. Then they insisted that I had been tricked and deceived by you, and they demanded that the remaining 200,000 yuan be returned. I explained and begged repeatedly, but it was no use. Brother Ma, I'm so sorry that you have suffered so much and been frightened."
"Xiao Xu, you once told me that you had never had a boyfriend, but that big, burly young man insists that he is your boyfriend. What's going on?"
“That guy’s surname is Shi. He’s been pursuing me for the past two years, but I’ve never agreed to be his girlfriend.”
“Xiao Xu, I want to give you a piece of advice: this young man surnamed Shi has violent tendencies. You must not pay any more attention to him. If he continues to harass you, call the police immediately.”
"Brother Ma, I understand. Thank you for reminding me."
Ma Yunfei hung up the phone.
Although he was frightened and misunderstood by that group of people, and even the eldest sister in the VIP room didn't believe him, he felt that he had done the right thing and had nothing to regret.
Four days later, the stock tripled.
Ma Yunfei immediately went to the securities brokerage and sold all the shares of that stock as soon as the market opened. At the same time, he also sold all the shares he had bought for Xiao Xu.
Ma Yunfei's account balance suddenly increased from 20 million to more than 70 million.
Xiao Xu's stock account balance also increased from 200,000 to over 600,000.
Ma Yunfei couldn't help but hum a little tune.
The older woman sitting opposite him said with dissatisfaction, "Little Ma, did you make some money today?"
"Hehe... I'll be happy whether I make money or not, because being alive is happiness."
The older sister said dismissively, "Xiao Ma, you think happiness is your business, but you can't let your own happiness affect other people's stock trading. Look at you, you disrupt my train of thought as soon as you start humming a song."
Ma Yunfei quickly apologized: "Big sister, I'm sorry, I got carried away. I'm really sorry. In the future, I will definitely watch my mouth and this will never happen again."
The older sister said angrily, "No wonder people say: 'A young man with no experience is unreliable.' Look at you, you have no sense of composure at all. With your attitude, you'll end up losing your underwear."
Ma Yunfei secretly covered his mouth and laughed, thinking: I won another mink coat, no! I won a villa with a garden.
The old man pushed open the door, poked his head in, and waved to Ma Yunfei.
The old man wasn't liked by the eldest sister, so he didn't want to come inside to avoid being scolded by her.
Ma Yunfei walked out of the VIP room and asked, "Sir, you should sell that stock I told you to buy as soon as possible."
"Hehe... Little Ma, to be honest, I sold that stock yesterday and made double the money. Originally, I wanted to do as you said, but when I saw that the stock had already doubled, I got a little impatient."
"Grandpa, you...you left too early yesterday."
"It's a bit early, but I'm already very satisfied. To be honest, I've been trading stocks for over a year, and this time, by listening to you, I've doubled my money. This is the most I've ever made."
Ma Yunfei sighed.
The old man lowered his voice and said, "Little Ma, you're a stock market genius! You're incredibly insightful. I'd like to invite you to dinner tonight. Let's go to the biggest Chinese restaurant in the city and have a delicious meal."
"Sir, no need. To be honest, I usually eat very little for dinner. Look, my belly is getting big; I need to lose weight."
"Little Ma, you've helped me make a lot of money, so I should at least show my appreciation."
"Sir, we're like family, there's no need to be so polite. Since I came to this branch, you've been the kindest to me, so this is my way of thanking you."
The old man said earnestly, "Little Ma, if you take a fancy to any other stock, could you tell me so I can make another profit?"
"Sir, no problem. If I find a stock I like, I will definitely let you know."
The old man returned to his large eight-person room with satisfaction.
According to Ma Yunfei's recollection, in just over two months, another hot stock doubled five times in a row.
He wasn't planning to come to the securities brokerage for the next two months; he was going back to his hometown to visit Chen Yuyan. Several months had passed in the blink of an eye, and he was starting to miss his wife.
