Who would consider 100 million as a small goal?

Since Chen Xiao couldn't explain about his rebirth, he could only describe it simply.

"Roughly speaking, I started a Financial company last semester, mainly doing... stock trading, and earned a little bit of money..."

......

......

"That's it?"

Chen Jianguo and his wife, who had been waiting for a lengthy explanation, asked.

"Yeah, that's it. It wasn't that complicated to begin with."

Wang Li asked again, "How much money did you earn that you can afford to hire so many people?"

Chen Xiao was pondering how to explain the 3.9 billion in a more acceptable way...

After thinking for a long time, he suddenly had an idea and said,

"Mom, if someone considers earning one hundred million a small goal."

Wang Li rolled her eyes, "Stop talking nonsense. What normal person would consider earning one hundred million a small goal?"

"......" Chen Xiao.

This...

From his mother's perspective, there was nothing wrong with that statement.

"No, I'm just giving an example, if one hundred million is considered a small goal."

Wang Li finally gave in, "Alright, continue. What about you earning a small goal?"

Chen Xiao said, "I earned 39 small goals..."

......

......

"Th-thirty-nine... small goals?"

Wang Li first found a chair and sat down steadily.

No one in the room spoke again. Chen Xiao only saw Wang Li and Chen Jianguo's eyes widening...

"Really?" Chen Jianguo asked.

Chen Xiao nodded, "Really."

Wang Li also asked, "Is it really true?"

Chen Xiao: "......"

"It's really true."

"Even if it's really true, I don't believe it," Wang Li said.

"......" Chen Xiao.

But thinking about it, it was understandable. Anyone who told their parents they earned 3.9 billion during the last semester of school over summer vacation would be taken as a joke.

Chen Xiao thought for a moment, opened his phone's text messages. Although he only had over one hundred million in his card, it was enough to prove it.

"Mom, look."

"This is pocket money; most of the money is in the company account."

Wang Li suspiciously took the phone and, with Chen Jianguo, leaned in to look, "Ones, tens, hundreds... millions, billions?"

Their brains seemed to crash.

They had seen such long numbers before, either phone numbers or ID numbers, but they never imagined that one day, money could also be that long...

Chen Xiao simply went to Lei Yong's room and brought over a bag.

"Here, 500,000 in cash. There are a few more bags in the car."

With the bright red banknotes laid out before them, Wang Li and Chen Jianguo had no choice but to believe it.

However, their son made 3.9 billion from stock trading? This was too surreal...

"But you... how did you suddenly know how to trade stocks, and earn so much money?" Wang Li asked.

"Uh..." Chen Xiao hadn't really thought about how to answer this question.

Finally, Liu Xin gave him an idea, "I... took an elective... learned macroeconomics. This is very useful for stock trading."

Wang Li and Chen Jianguo didn't understand much of that, only remembering the four words 'macroeconomics'.

Seeing that the two had basically accepted the fact, Chen Xiao took out two cards and said, "Don't overthink it. 3.9 billion is just a number; the things bought with it are what's real."

"And don't say I'm biased. You two each get ten million in pocket money."

Chen Jianguo excitedly rubbed his hands on his thigh. This was the rhythm of reaching the pinnacle of life, riding on his son's coattails!

But just as his hand was about to reach out, both cards had already landed in Wang Li's hands.

"Son, I'll keep it for you."

Chen Jianguo: "I..."

Wang Li glared, "What 'I'? No one can squander the money our son earned. These twenty million are his fallback, in case of an emergency."

Chen Jianguo: "......"

Chen Xiao was speechless, "Mom, this money is for you to spend, why are you saving it?"

Wang Li clutched the two cards and said, "This money is for you to buy a house when you graduate and get married, and for my grandson's milk powder, school fees, money for getting married and having children, school fees..."

As she spoke, Wang Li herself felt something was off...

If it continued like this, wouldn't it become an endless cycle?

"Hahaha, Mom, you're thinking too far ahead. They have theirs, and you have yours. Spend it freely. I'll give you twenty million every year from now on."

However, no matter how Chen Xiao tried to persuade her, Wang Li would at most only agree to take out one million to buy a house and a car.

Chen Xiao was speechless: "Why buy a house in the county town? I'll get you two a villa in Jinning, hire some nannies, and you can live comfortably."

Wang Li said, "Don't talk nonsense. We're not going anywhere. Your grandpa is still here. He's old and doesn't want to leave his homeland."

Chen Xiao sighed slightly. It seemed that improving their lives would require him to take matters into his own hands.

Once a person has money, even if they don't spend it, their spirit, energy, and confidence are completely different.

Many problems are no longer problems; they can be easily resolved.

Their minds can also be more open.

Wang Li then remembered Dr. Gan's words at the hospital, "Son, now that you have money, your mom doesn't object to you having a girlfriend. When will you bring that girl back for Mom to see?"

"......" Chen Xiao.

"Mom, Dr. Gan was talking nonsense. Don't overthink it. I don't have a girlfriend."

Wang Li was noncommittal, "Don't be shy. You're already this old. If it were in the past, getting married would be normal."

"Get along well, try to settle down after graduation, then have two children in three years, and three in five years, while I'm still young and can help you raise the children."

"......" Chen Xiao.

It seemed he was about to face a big problem: his parents pressuring him to get married after graduation.

But he had already made up his mind not to get married. What should he do about this?

"Um... that's my situation. You two can rest if there's nothing else. I still have work to do."

Chen Xiao decided to run first. There would always be a way when he got to it, and maybe a solution would appear sometime.

As soon as he stepped out, he bumped into Lin Yanran, who had a blush on her face, clutching her chest, her face full of lingering shock.

"Hmm? Yanran, what are you doing?"

Lin Yanran looked bewildered, "Bo-Boss, I was eavesdropping..."

Chen Xiao: "!???"

"Ah! No, no." Realizing she had said the wrong thing, Lin Yanran waved her hands frantically, "I wasn't eavesdropping. Sister Su Tang called to ask about the situation, and I wanted to ask you how to reply."

Chen Xiao found it amusing. The little girl's innocent expression was exactly like when she hid under the office desk out of curiosity before.

"Just reply truthfully."

Lin Yanran lowered her head and responded, "Oh, okay, okay."

Chen Xiao finished speaking, turned, and left.
