million
Chen Xiao directly pulled him up, "Stop looking, go eat with Dad. You can continue losing money tomorrow."
"Bastard, I'm not going."
"Skewers and beer, not going?"
"I'm going!" Ji Yuzheng jumped off the sofa and started putting on his clothes.
Chen Xiao: "..."
Liu Xin was stunned, "Damn, Dad's going to make you cry from eating!"
...
The three of them were at a barbecue restaurant near the Back Street entrance, where they simply ordered some skewers and beer.
They chatted and ate leisurely.
In a few tens of minutes, they were completely full.
"Boss, check please," Chen Xiao called out.
The boss walked over and said, "Oh, someone already paid for you, no need to pay."
"Hmm? Already paid?"
Liu Xin and Ji Yuzheng looked around, trying to see which of the three's connections was so impressive.
Shortly after, Sun Ying, who was having dinner with her best friend, got up and walked to Chen Xiao and the others' table.
Ji Yuzheng almost drooled; this girl was just too beautiful...
"I happened to see you guys eating, so I just paid the bill," Sun Ying said.
Chen Xiao smiled, "Oh, that's too kind."
Sun Ying rolled her pretty eyes, and with a meaningful smile, said, "Does Junior Brother also have times when he feels too kind?"
Chen Xiao immediately understood, "Cough, cough, well, Senior Sister, we're done eating. Goodbye."
After speaking, he stood up and gestured for the two of them to return to school.
Ji Yuzheng was still unwilling to leave, holding an empty glass and saying, "Since Senior Sister is treating, I should at least toast a glass to show my gratitude."
Chen Xiao was speechless. You want to toast, but you're going to mooch off of their drinks?
Sun Ying turned to look at Ji Yuzheng and said, "Oh, no need. A few of us friends just had a casual meal, we didn't drink alcohol."
Ji Yuzheng held the plastic cup suspended in mid-air, looking at the beer bottles scattered on the floor under that table, and fell into deep thought...
After Chen Xiao left, he sent a text message.
"Alcohol, that's enough."
Shortly after, he received a reply.
"Okay, little wolfdog, mwah."
Chen Xiao: "...Damn it, sooner or later I'll make you call me Dad!"
Perhaps this body was too young, a slight provocation would make him restless.
Back in the dorm, he took a cold shower and felt a little better.
Then he took two packs of cigarettes and kicked open the doors of all the male dorm rooms.
"Come on, come on, stop watching porn, let's get Red Alert online!"
After two packs of cigarettes were distributed, 12 people divided into two groups and started playing.
They played until the dorm's power was cut off, ending reluctantly.
Then a group of people rushed out of the dorm, cursing.
"Damn it, you noob, I told you to guard the top lane, what the hell were you doing?"
"Get lost, you! My ass was blown up and you guys didn't even support me, I'll screw you over!"
"You're truly horrible..."
"Come, Dad will teach you how to play the game..."
...
Chen Xiao was greatly amused on the side. In the mouths of these brutes, everyone except himself was a noob.
The next day.
Chen Xiao did not stay in front of the dorm computer but went to class.
After switching to a smartphone, he could trade using the securities company's APP.
This saved him from being seen in the dorm.
"Holy cow, son, you got a new phone?" Liu Xin just noticed that the phone Chen Xiao was holding was different from before.
"Yeah, all the money I earned a while ago, plus this month's living expenses, it's all in here. I'm counting on you for food this month, okay?"
"Get lost, you! I eat shit every day, you can follow along."
Chen Xiao: "..."
"Awesome, then you go eat by yourself."
Liu Xin was not polite and snatched the phone.
"Give it to me, let Dad see."
Chen Xiao didn't mind; his stock account required logging in every time it was opened.
"Tsk, you told me not to, but aren't you still downloading the securities company APP yourself?"
Chen Xiao said, "I'm waiting for an opportunity; maybe I'll never use it."
Liu Xin pouted, casually swiped a few times, and then returned it to Chen Xiao.
Then he became even more determined to get a phone for the stock market himself.
Chen Xiao knew what he was thinking, "How about... you sell your stocks and buy one too?"
Liu Xin sighed, "Sigh, that's my tuition fee. I'm counting on making it back by trading stocks... If I could go back in time, I wouldn't touch this damn thing no matter what."
Chen Xiao: "..."
Not bad, still somewhat rational, but there's no regret medicine in life.
He could take this as a lesson; anyway, the tuition fee could be paid all at once before graduating in senior year.
Upon arriving in the classroom, Chen Xiao sat on the outer seat of a two-person desk in the back row, with the inner seat empty. He drove away a few brutes who wanted to sit there, finally securing a private space.
Li Wenli didn't come to class, and Chen Xiao didn't ask her. He guessed she was too tired to come.
After all, that day was indeed a bit too much exercise, and generally, young girls have limited endurance.
Tan Cheng turned her head several times, but Chen Xiao didn't see her.
At this moment, his attention was completely on the stock market.
Yesterday, Jinchuan Highway gained 13.1 points. Today, it opened higher and kept rising, with almost no fluctuations.
Chen Xiao browsed the positive news about Jinchuan Highway. It turned out that it had won the bid for a cross-provincial highway project in a certain economic special zone.
Chen Xiao thought for a moment and invested all the remaining 100,000 yuan into Jinchuan Highway with ten times leverage.
Although there was only 5 points of profit margin left, it was better than nothing, just like earning some pocket money.
After the operation, Jinchuan Highway seemed to have received a shot in the arm. Its trend suddenly surged, heading directly for the daily limit.
Chen Xiao's face showed a smile, and he felt a little excited. This wave of market activity should yield over a million in profit.
This was also the first time in his two lives combined that he held a million in cash, which had a milestone-like special significance.
...
"Okay, this question will be answered by the male student in the second-to-last row on the left."
Just then, the teacher's voice rang out, and the classroom suddenly fell silent.
Chen Xiao was stunned. Isn't that talking about me?
He slowly put down his phone and stood up, his eyes blank.
Who knew what question the teacher had just asked? How was he supposed to answer anything!
Liu Xin, Shen Jiancheng, Wu Ling, and others on the side whispered answers, all talking at once.
But Chen Xiao was completely confused. What gibberish were these guys saying? He vaguely heard something about US dollars, British pounds, Venezuela, and had no clue at all.
The teacher's eyes showed a question, "Other students, quiet."
Liu Xin and the other two immediately shut their mouths.
Chen Xiao looked left and right and honestly said, "Uh... Teacher, I don't know this question."
"Pfft ha ha ha..."
Instantly, the entire class burst into laughter.
The teacher was also amused, "You don't know this question? Come on, what's your name?"
Chen Xiao's eyes darted around, "Reporting, Teacher, my name is Ji Yuzheng."
"Pfft..."
Around Chen Xiao, some students almost couldn't hold back their laughter.
