"Just a double and you're excited enough to offer a kiss," Xiao Ming curled his lips, "then I'd better stay away from you in the next few days, lest my innocence be compromised."
"Kiss my ass!"
Yun Shi Yu kicked him, "My two million with a sixfold leverage is twelve million, and now it's turned into thirty-six million!
Do you know what that means?
The Yun Family's total annual profit from their businesses is only around ten billion, and here I am, having earned more than thirty percent of the Yun Family's annual profit in one night alone!𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
I've never had so much money at my disposal, can you understand how I feel now?"
The girl's eyes shined scarily bright and her voice was excited; even if Xiao Ming was slow on the uptake, he could sense her extreme elation at that moment.
He chuckled and flicked Yun Shi Yu's forehead lightly, "Stay cool! You're getting ahead of yourself. Don't forget your dream and the reason you hired me to be your 'manager.'
Don't ever be so weak again, it's embarrassing for me."
"You're annoying!"
The girl pouted and hit him, then smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Big Brother Xiao."
Yun Shi Yu and Shen Siyi were not the only ones who couldn't sleep that night; Bai Xuechao had also stayed awake until dawn.
Having impulsively bought Xiao Ming's pork at double the price yesterday, she felt no regret, but the loss of eight million in an instant still pained her.
Especially at a critical time when she was severing ties with the criminal underworld, every penny was extremely important to her.
If Xiao Ming had lied to her, she would be doomed.
Rubbing her temples as she came out of the bedroom, Gu Xiangmeng had already bought breakfast.
"Bai, you look terrible, did you not sleep well?"
"I'm fine, a nap at noon will help."
"Then I'll buy some spare ribs after my class and make you a dates and spare ribs soup, it helps with relaxation, my sister taught me.
Speaking of which, the owner of the breakfast place just told me pork prices have gone up, told me to buy more quickly because they will go up again tomorrow..."
"What did you say?"
Bai Xuechao grabbed Gu Xiangmeng's hand, "What's gone up in price?"
Gu Xiangmeng was puzzled, "Pork! The owner said it's almost doubled in price from yesterday."
Bai Xuechao's heart began to beat uncontrollably, "Did he say why the price went up?"
"They say it's swine fever, quite serious, there are infections in both the north and the south."
Bai Xuechao immediately took out her phone to check the news, and sure enough, the headlines related to pork.
Seeing that many pig farms in North China and the southeast reported cases, she then realized why Xiao Ming had emphasized that under no circumstances should they purchase from those two areas.
That guy knew so clearly a week in advance.
Was he... a god?
For some reason, she suddenly recalled the scene where those rich kids called her sister-in-law, and her pretty face started to heat up unconsciously.
"Bai, Bai? Are you okay? Are you sick?"
Seeing Bai Xuechao motionless, her face alternating between pale and red, Gu Xiangmeng was worried.
Bai Xuechao shook her head and said seriously, "Don't worry about me; you, on the other hand, must remember Xiao Ming's instructions, and study hard, got it?"
Gu Xiangmeng pouted, "That guy just gave me fifty thousand and stopped caring, making me feel like a child unable to go to school in a mountainous area, it's weird.
All I want is to take revenge for my sister."
Bai Xuechao held her hand, "Although I haven't known him for long, so far, everything he's told me has come true, and with incredible accuracy.
So, I believe, since he said he would help you take revenge within six months, he will definitely do it.
Be patient and don't disappoint him."
Gu Xiangmeng nodded, then added, "Sis, who exactly is he? He's willing to spend a million to save me and strangely asked me to get a diploma and learn vocal music, even though I'm sure I've never known anyone with the surname Xiao from childhood.
If I didn't know any better, I would suspect he's some long-lost relative of mine."
Bai Xuechao laughed, "Don't ever think that way. As far as I know him, which isn't much, he's a typical pragmatist.
His help for you is not merely an act of charity; you can tell from the attitude he had when he wanted to kick you out of his car that day.
So, prepare yourself mentally; he must have ulterior motives for helping you."
Gu Xiangmeng was stunned, unable to think of anything about herself that could be worth Xiao Ming spending so much money on. Suddenly, she looked down at her plump chest and her face turned red.
With no money, no power, no talent, what else could attract attention other than a reasonably pretty body?
As noon approached, Zhang Dachuan walked into the outpatient building, planning to flirt with the new intern doctor, when he suddenly recognized the chubby back of a nurse.
"Isn't that Head Nurse Wang, whom I fired yesterday? Why hasn't she left yet?"
He muttered to himself as he pulled out his phone to call the HR department, and then learned that his father, the hospital director, had intervened.
How could that be alright? If Xiao Ming finds out, how am I supposed to face him?
Zhang Dachuan was angered and immediately turned to head back to the administrative building, pushing open the door to the director's office.
"Dad, why did you stop the dismissal of the head nurse I asked HR to fire yesterday?"
Zhang Wenli glanced at his son and snorted, "You still have the cheek to ask? She's your cousin-in-law's wife. You just fire her without a second thought, have you no respect for your elders?"
"What respect for elders? She's some distant relative I barely know. She offended my friend yesterday; I fired her in front of him, and what you're doing is making me lose face!"
