Fruit 4 mobile phone

Liu Xin didn't return until just before the dorms locked up.

Although he spoke and laughed naturally, Chen Xiao still caught a hint of unnatural expression in the pauses of his speech.

The two didn't chat for long before each went to bed.

Ji Yuzheng continued to play games with the sound on, completely oblivious to others' feelings.

Chen Xiao got up and threw half a pack of cigarettes onto his desk.

"Use headphones."

Ji Yuzheng was startled, but when he saw it was cigarettes and opened it to confirm it wasn't an empty pack, he immediately became happy.

"Alright, Xiao Ge."

Chen Xiao turned over, a smile playing on his lips.

He hadn't heard Ji Yuzheng call him "Xiao Zi" for several days.

The next day.

Chen Xiao woke up at seven, first ran a few laps on the track, then took a shower, and comfortably went to the cafeteria for breakfast.

He placed great importance on his physical health.

After all, only with good health could he better enjoy life in the future.

It would be frustrating to have all the conditions met later but lack the strength; money would be useless then.

He leisurely finished everything by 8:30, first checked in at class, then, under the pretense of going to the restroom, secretly slipped back to the dorm, just in time for the opening of the last trading day of the week on Friday.

Without surprise, Chen Xiao's sell order, placed at the highest limit, was successfully executed.

His total capital reached over 94,400 yuan, about to break through the 100,000 mark.

The hidden message also refreshed.

"May 30th, Tiannan Seed Industry's highest increase: 10.00%"

Chen Xiao found this company and discovered it was another surge from a limit down to a limit up.

He thought for a moment, decided to keep 4,400 for tomorrow, and go all-in with the rest.

Then he turned off his phone and went out, hailing a cab directly to a nearby shopping mall.

The Fruit 4 phone had been on the market for over half a year, and Chen Xiao planned to buy one to give to Sun Ying tomorrow.

After all, he had earned quite a bit using her money, and besides, she usually paid whenever they went out.

This year could be said to be the first year of smartphones; anyone carrying a Fruit 4 would undoubtedly make those around them envious, a phenomenon particularly strong in universities.

"Hello, how much is the Fruit 4?" Chen Xiao asked a beautiful saleswoman.

However, she seemed not to hear him.

Chen Xiao paused, wondering if the girl was distracted or if his voice was too low.

"Hello..."

Chen Xiao repeated himself, but the saleswoman turned and walked away.

What the hell is going on?

Chen Xiao looked at his old clothes and instantly understood.

This situation was relatively rare; businesses usually only cared about money.

But it had to be admitted that in some areas, some shops did have a bit of prejudice.

Heh heh, so I'm not worthy? I didn't expect such a pretty girl to be so snobbish.

"Damn, what kind of crappy saleswoman is that?"

Chen Xiao then consulted an older saleswoman, and the situation was different.

"Young man, please wait a minute, I'll attend to you after I finish with this customer."

Chen Xiao nodded, indicating acceptance, as there should be a first-come, first-served rule, and she was already attending to a customer when he entered the store.

So he stood aside and waited, his eyes scanning the somewhat simple sales floor of that era.

Unexpectedly, his behavior, in the eyes of that beautiful saleswoman, became that of a country youth who had just arrived in the city and hadn't seen the world.

She leaned against the doorframe, rolling her eyes at Chen Xiao, and let out a disdainful "Tsk~."

"I'm going to..."

Chen Xiao was extremely speechless.

In less than a minute, the older sister finished her work and then warmly greeted Chen Xiao.

"Young man, which model caught your eye?"

Chen Xiao pointed at the Fruit 4, "This one, the 16GB, please wrap it up for me."

The older sister was startled, not expecting such a big customer.

She immediately beamed, "Alright, I'll even give you a phone case. Do you want a screen protector?"

The beautiful saleswoman leaning against the doorframe clearly didn't expect Chen Xiao to be so decisive; her expression was a mix of surprise and disbelief.

Chen Xiao deliberately looked at her and said, "No need for a screen protector. Card payment. I'm in a hurry."

"Alright."

The older sister quickly collected the money and went to the back warehouse to get the item and pack it.

The beautiful woman leaning against the doorframe saw the older sister go to the warehouse, turned her head to look, and then walked towards the counter.

"Handsome, I'm so sorry. This is my business card. You can find me if you need anything next time."

Chen Xiao took it and looked, "Your name is Li Mengyue?"

Li Mengyue feigned shyness and nodded.

Chen Xiao flicked the business card in his hand into the trash can, "Such a good name wasted."

Li Mengyue: "You..."

Just then, the older sister brought out the packaged phone. Chen Xiao took it, gestured the phone bag to Li Mengyue, and turned to leave.

She was so angry that she stood there stomping her feet.

After leaving the phone store, Chen Xiao directly threw away the tote bag, put the phone in his backpack, and stood by the street waiting for a taxi.

The weather in late May was already a bit hot, especially with the backpack sticking to his back, making it even more uncomfortable.

"Damn it, when I get rich, I'm definitely hiring two young girls to follow me 24 hours a day, one to hold an umbrella for me, and one to carry my bag!"

"Beep beep..."

A white Lavida stopped beside Chen Xiao.

The car window rolled down, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

"Hello, Chen Xiao, what a coincidence."

"Su Tang? Why are you here?"

The driver was precisely the beautiful manager from the investment company he had met at the securities company's entrance.

"Oh, I came to run some errands. Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

"Uh... you're busy, I'll just take a taxi. The school is quite far from here."

"It's fine, I live near University City. I've finished my errands, and it's a holiday this afternoon, so I'm heading home. It's on my way."

Since she said so, Chen Xiao no longer declined. He opened the door and got into the passenger seat.

There was a very pleasant light fragrance in the car. Chen Xiao didn't know much about perfume and didn't know what brand it was, only that it felt very high-class.

The Lavida of this era, costing nearly 200,000 yuan on the road, had a very simple interior. The center console didn't even have a screen, only a radio, which was considered a status symbol.

However, for a girl who had just graduated to drive a car worth nearly 200,000 yuan, it showed that her family's financial situation must be quite good.

"Then... thank you for the trouble," Chen Xiao said.

Su Tang, seeing that Chen Xiao showed no surprise or awkwardness after getting in, as if he had just gotten into a taxi, became even more curious about his identity.

"After opening the account last time, have you made any trades?"

Su Tang asked casually.

"Yes, I've traded a few times, but the principal is too small, it's not very interesting. I don't know what conditions are needed to add leverage now." Chen Xiao had just been wanting to ask this question these past few days.

"Adding leverage... that's too risky, and it requires a margin requirement..." Su Tang was surprised by Chen Xiao's appetite.

She didn't know why, perhaps it was a woman's intuition, but from the beginning, she had never doubted that Chen Xiao was bragging.

"How much is the margin?"

"Hmm... for our company... it's 200,000 starting..."

"200,000." Chen Xiao calculated in his mind. "Sigh, it'll take a few more days to save enough."
