Stamping her feet in anxiety, Xu Juan rushed over to snatch the phone.
Zhang Qiang shuddered, snapping awake. He fumbled to pull out his phone and open the stock trading app. For the past four years, he had been continuously buying shares of Su Pharmaceutical. Besides pouring in all his cash, he had borrowed heavily from all quarters. He had even gone so far as to mortgage his own house and Xu Juan's family home.
And Su Pharmaceutical had performed admirably, its stock price climbing year after year. Zhang Qiang had made a killing and never missed an opportunity to show off. Naturally, his investments had only grown more frenzied.
If this damn thing suddenly crashes... I'll have to jump off a building!
With his heart pounding in his throat, he opened the app. Zhang Qiang's vision went dark, and his head buzzed as if it would explode.
The chart was green. A sickening sea of green, representing a cliff-like plunge.
