237: Chapter 237 The Willing Take the Bait
Wang Cheng lay in the hospital, and no one came to care for him. Even the property destroyed at the loan company by Su Nange had to be compensated by him.
He couldn't accept such a gap in reality.
Not long ago, he was in his prime. As a high-level executive at a branch of Qianjiang Bank, he was just one step away from becoming a vice president.
Furthermore, his beautiful sister-in-law had favored him.
But now, a poor boy he could once easily manipulate actually dared to step on him.
Although Chen Liuxin hadn't blocked him, she basically left his messages on read without replying.
Liao Yaoguang wanted to destroy him. Since he failed to complete the task Li Runfa assigned this time, that big shot would likely want him dead too.
Wang Cheng felt the pain in his chest growing more and more intense.
Meanwhile, Ye Tian returned to his dormitory and covered his head with a quilt.
Did he feel regret? Of course he did. But seeing that camera of his, hope was rekindled.
At least for all these years, his sister had paid him back. He felt that, in the end, his sister still wouldn't let him suffer.
It was the first time Ye Tian had seen his sister act so strong since they were young. He felt that she would ultimately protect him.
He also finally met his legendary brother-in-law. He was indeed very handsome; no wonder his sister was so devoted and careful.
It seemed that if he wanted to live a good life in the future, he would have to curry favor with this brother-in-law.
Back home, Su Nange said he wasn't angry.
But clearly, the drop of Deluxe Milk on the corner of Ye Tingting's mouth just now made his inner fire burn even hotter.
Ye Tingting begged for mercy, "What's wrong with you today? Sister Ding is still here! Don't be like this, I'm scared."
Su Nange asked, "Now you know how to be scared?"
"Didn't you say you weren't angry anymore?"
The soundproofing in the new house was excellent, but it still couldn't withstand two young people showing their affection in the quiet night.
Ding Quxiao lay in the guest bedroom next door.
She spat under her breath, "Aren't they done yet?"
"Su Nange, are you trying to kill her? Tingting is such a frail girl, don't you have any pity for her!"
Early the next morning, Ye Tingting didn't go to the bank; she simply couldn't get out of bed.
Su Nange looked relaxed and cheerful: "Morning, Sister Ding!"
"Stop that grinning and go eat breakfast!"
Su Nange: ??? What did I do? Where am I grinning!
This Sister Ding was starting to feel more and more like an elder. Su Nange thought to himself that it was no wonder Li Wanning didn't like living with her.
However, Su Nange naturally liked it very much. He wished Ding Quxiao would live here forever.
Su Nange trotted off to eat breakfast.
Ding Quxiao had also changed a lot. Accustomed to being a wealthy lady, she was now starting to learn how to make some simple breakfasts.
Of course, Ding Quxiao was merely picking these things up again; after all, it was only now that she felt true life was beautiful.
Suddenly, she didn't want to move out of here anymore.
She even thought that if Su Nange and Tingting had a child in the future, she might be able to help out and take care of it.
At this moment, Su Nange, drinking porridge and eating a fried egg, unconsciously praised, "It really tastes like mom's cooking."
The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart. Ding Quxiao blushed, thinking Su Nange was teasing her again.
"Just eat! Why so many words? It doesn't matter to you since you're the boss, but we have to clock in."
With Su Nange there, Ding Quxiao could hitch a ride in his Range Rover.
She didn't avoid Tang Li either: "You didn't see him last night, did you?"
Su Nange shook his head: "No. If I had arrived any later, I might have ended up in a conflict with him."
"Sister Ding, if I really fought with him..."
"You misunderstand me. I only care about you and Tingting. If you want to destroy him, I'll cheer you on."
"Alright, hearing you say that makes me feel relieved. But, sigh, forget it. I just want him to lose everything. That should be the biggest blow to him."
"After all, he is Wanning's father."
Ding Quxiao: "Heh, then you overestimate Wanning. That heartless girl wouldn't care about how her parents are doing."
Once at the office, Su Nange rarely opened his computer.
When the market opened at 9 AM, Su Nange operated personally. Today, he put in another 100 million.
Counting the previous few days, Su Nange had already invested several hundred million into a building materials stock.
This was a mid-cap stock, and Su Nange's funds were not enough to trigger a limit up on their own.
However, maintaining a small daily increase was still possible.
Seeing that the timing was about right, Su Nange then sent out the stock code.
The other party replied with a "Received."
A Single Thought welcomed several big shots today.
Liao Yaoguang and a few people in the capital game organized a dinner party.
Interestingly enough, Chen Qianqian had actually poached a Cantonese chef team from the Lei Garden line, and their skill level was truly impressive.
It perfectly suited the tastes of these big shots.
Lobster Soup with Fish Maw, Crab Roe and Shark Fin Soup, Ancient Style Steamed Giant Grouper, and Soft-heart Dried Abalone were all signature dishes here.
Li Runfa was also invited to the dinner.
While eating good food and drinking fine wine, the big shots slowly began to ponder some ways to make money.
This was the real reason Li Runfa attended this dinner.
He was not a reckless person; on the contrary, to become a real estate mogul, one must have a sensitive perception of risk.
But his opponent happened to be Su Nange.
Li Runfa didn't study the secondary market much, so he mostly just listened.
Then Liao Yaoguang opened his phone with an air of authority and picked out a stock.
"Come, look at this stock. What do you think? Boss Li, you're in construction, and this happens to be a building materials stock. What's your take?"
Li Runfa took the phone and saw that it was indeed a building materials company he was somewhat familiar with. It had just taken on a few projects recently.
Liao Yaoguang suggested, "Should we act as the market makers?"
"I've calculated it; the circulating market value of this stock is around 15 billion."
"To trigger a limit up takes roughly 800 million to 1.5 billion. With 3 to 4 billion, we can create a market trend."
"How about it? Interested in a game?"
Everyone chimed in: "If Boss Liao is leading us to make money, there's no reason for us not to follow."
At the table, the bosses toasted each other, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic. In their eyes, tens of millions or even 100 million was like a game.
So, Su Nange was right; how could you make money without serving Cantonese cuisine?
Would they think a few tens of thousands of yuan for the meal in front of them was expensive? It was just a drop in the bucket.
Liao Yaoguang toasted Li Runfa: "How about it? Chairman Li, shall we?"
Li Runfa thought about it; he knew this building materials stock. Plus, with so many big shots acting as market makers together...
So, he downed his wine in one gulp, "Good! Then I'll rely on Boss Liao's guidance."
In the evening, Su Nange received a message: They're in.
Su Nange quickly replied: Let them earn a little first. It seems all scammers use this routine.
The other party replied: Young Master Su, you're like Jiang Taigong fishing—the willing take the bait. How can you call it a scam?
Su Nange laughed at the phone screen. He thought to himself that these big shots were the ultimate flatterers.
Su Nange stretched and prepared to drive back himself.
Just then, Tang Li suddenly came to his office.
"Boss, I'm back. Since you haven't left yet, I'll drive you."
It turned out that Tang Li had gone to a government meeting today on behalf of Ange Technology.
Su Nange had originally planned to leave on his own, as it was getting late after he had been grinding games all afternoon.
Su Nange stood up and nodded.
"No rush. You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll treat you to a big meal."
Tang Li said with watery eyes, "Boss, how about I cook some noodles for you at my place?"
Su Nange thought, damn it, can you stop saying things that sound so ambiguous?
However, this damn Tang Li hadn't dressed very heavily today because she went to the government meeting.
She wore a tasteful long cashmere dress with a camel-colored coat over it.
The dress covered her knees, revealing a section of her calves. She was rarely wearing a pair of high heels worth over a thousand yuan.
Then a pair of smoke-gray stockings clung to her skin, making her look very decent and elegant, like a female executive of a corporation.
Tang Li: "Boss, come to my place. I'll make Yellow Croaker Noodles for you today."
Su Nange swallowed: "Al—alright then, sorry for the trouble."
