Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife - Chapter 251: Counterattack!
Chen Xiao gave a faint smile. "I don’t know if my mouth is tough, but I’ll soon let you know if other parts of me are hard."
Lu Rugao was on the verge of a meltdown. This guy’s mouth was just too vile. She desperately wanted to rush over and tear it to shreds.
Watching his goddess be humiliated like this, Jin Zilong trembled with anger. He could never bring himself to say even a single harsh word to Lu Rugao, yet this guy spouted nothing but filth the moment he opened his mouth. He was in agony...
Zhang Yaqing also smiled and said, "Miss Lu, we welcome you to join our ranks and become our sister."
"Wouldn’t that make her the fifth or sixth wife, then?" Luo Qingli chimed in unexpectedly.
"Alright, alright, stop provoking her. The money for today has arrived, so let’s head back and get some rest," Chen Xiao said, waving his hand dismissively.
"Chen Xiao! You mark my words! I’ll make you spit this money back out, tenfold, a hundredfold!" Lu Rugao’s roar echoed behind them as they left.
After exiting the Pearl Restaurant, Chen Xiao said calmly, "Post this evidence online and hire some online trolls to create a stir."
Hearing this, Luo Qingli squinted. "Didn’t you take Jin Zilong’s money?"
Chen Xiao shrugged. "That money was compensation for the damage to the shops. This evidence," he added, "comes at a different price. I never said that I wouldn’t post these videos online just because he paid up..."
"So ruthless!" Zhang Yaqing commented. "But I like it."
The others mulled it over and had to admit, it made a certain kind of sense.
「In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.」
During these two days, Lu Rugao’s assault had clearly intensified. The Luo Group’s stock price had plummeted to less than a third of its peak value. It was teetering on the very brink of collapse. All Lu Rugao needed to do was invest a little more, and she could crush the Luo Group completely. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
For the past two days, Robin had barely left his room, his eyes glued to the screen, tracking every minute fluctuation in the market.
Chen Xiao opened the door and walked in. "How are things looking?"
"Not bad," Robin replied with a slight smile. "Everything is still under control. But now, it’s time for us to make our move."
At his words, Chen Xiao’s eyes narrowed.
"I’ve been monitoring Lu Rugao and her team’s movements," Robin continued. "My current forecast is that they’ve invested around sixty billion into this. As for us, we’ve gradually invested about two million. The Luo Group’s stock price has now hit rock bottom. We need to pour a massive amount of funds in during the last half hour before the market closes today. We’ll catch them completely off guard and send the stock price skyrocketing."
"Tomorrow," he finished, "there will be a surprise waiting for them, no further action required from us."
"Good. Let’s do it your way," Chen Xiao nodded.
Robin’s fingers flew across the keyboard. He had been laying the groundwork for a long time, setting his traps and waiting for this exact moment. Now, it was his turn to counterattack.
「Meanwhile...」
Lu Rugao sat in the living room of her villa, her long, beautiful legs crossed, giving her a powerful, commanding aura. A large screen lit up in front of her, displaying a team of young men and women in sharp business suits. They all sat before their computers, poised for action.
A young man appeared before her on the screen and spoke. "Miss Lu, what are your orders?"
These people were none other than the members of Sharp Sword Finance, and the young man speaking was its founder, Xiao Defeng.
"What’s the current situation? How much longer can the Luo Group hold on? Their stock price is less than a third of what it was at its peak. It should be on the verge of being completely trashed, right?"
Xiao Defeng replied, "That’s correct. Another ten billion investment from our side would cause the Luo Group to collapse completely. Not even God could save them then. However, the safest approach is to wait and watch patiently. We can let the retail investors sell off their shares on their own, and we’ll bleed them dry without spending another penny."
Hearing this, Lu Rugao’s grip on her wine glass tightened. "How long will that take?"
"About a week."
"I can’t wait that long," Lu Rugao said coldly. "Seize this opportunity and crush them now! Keep pouring money in!"
Xiao Defeng’s eyes narrowed slightly. "Miss Lu, are you sure? We’ve already spent sixty billion to push the Luo Group to this point, which already exceeded our expectations. Their market operator seems to know what they’re doing. If... if they still have funds, we could be in a dangerous position."
A mocking smile touched Lu Rugao’s lips. "Do you really think they have any funds left? What’s the scale of the Luo Group? They’ve already thrown over twenty billion into this war with us, money they probably had to beg and borrow from everyone they know! They’re out of cash. Stop worrying and launch the final assault."
"Yes, Miss Lu," Xiao Defeng said, knowing he could argue no further.
After the video call ended, a vicious look appeared on Lu Rugao’s cold, arrogant face. Chen Xiao! And those two women! I’d like to see... after today, what right will you have to be so arrogant in front of me, Lu Rugao!
She was already basking in the certainty of her victory.
As Lu Rugao’s funds continued to pour in, the Luo Group’s stock was pushed to a new low.
But then, suddenly... the tables turned.
A mysterious flood of capital surged into the market, beginning a frenzied buying spree that instantly drove the stock price up. One billion! Two billion! Ten billion... Twenty billion!
In a flash, fueled by this insane injection of funds, the Luo Group’s stock price shot to its peak in under ten minutes. Moreover, this influx attracted numerous other sharp-nosed financial firms and retail investors, who all jumped in and began driving the price up alongside them.
In the blink of an eye, the situation was completely reversed.
Watching this unfold, Xiao Defeng’s pupils trembled violently. "What is going on? Where did this mysterious capital come from?"
"Boss! These stock-holding accounts were all previously dormant! They’ve been lying in wait this whole time, and only now are they launching their counterattack! It seems they were prepared for this."
Hearing the report, Xiao Defeng’s expression turned frigid. "We have to crush their momentum! Otherwise, when the market opens tomorrow, all hell will break loose!"
But it was too late. The market was closing.
The stock price was frozen at the Luo Group’s daily limit up.
Far away in Yuncheng City, Lu Rugao had been watching the entire spectacle. Her beautiful eyes quivered. What... what is happening?! This sudden injection of mysterious funds, in just half an hour, has undone most of my hard work over the last few days? And who is controlling this fund? They’re far too bold to throw in so much cash without a moment’s hesitation!
