Chapter 363: Chapter 160: Earning Ten Million a Day, Rumors Flying Around the Finance Academy_2

In situations like this, he could only wait for Zhong Tingyue to come to her senses. Then, through her mother, he could try a roundabout approach to see if she might gradually accept the situation...

Li Yuan turned and left, feeling quite weary himself.

Since Zhong Tingyue and her roommate had already found out, it meant Bai Weixi had effectively found out as well. It was only a matter of time.

Regarding Bai Weixi, Li Yuan didn’t feel much of a psychological burden. She was a smart girl and should know how to choose. Even if she really chose to leave, he would only feel a bit of regret and reluctance. After all, the current Bai Weixi was incredibly docile and obedient, granting nearly his every request. The experience she gave him was exceptional. Coupled with the psychological thrill, it was all the more satisfying and unrestrained.

...

After Li Yuan left, Gu Lanxin squatted down, stroked her daughter’s head, and comforted her softly.

"Little Moon, Li Yuan is very good to you. He drove all the way from Modu as soon as he heard the news. It shows he still cares about you. I think if you give up like this, you will definitely regret it in the future. Think it over carefully. Mom will take you back to Modu tomorrow. No matter what, you can’t neglect your studies, and you mustn’t ruin your health."

Zhong Tingyue sobbed quietly, her mind a chaotic mess of conflicting voices. The moment she saw Li Yuan after he had rushed over from Modu, her heart had been touched. But thinking about how his actions had made her the third party in her roommate’s relationship, she felt it was unforgivable...

She knew exactly what her mother meant. If she chose to leave now, she would have no connection to Li Yuan for the rest of her life. The scenario described in the lyrics of "Nanshan South" would become her reality.

But she truly, truly loved him...

"Mom, I’m in so much pain, I just want to cry..." Zhong Tingyue said, her eyes swollen and her voice choked with sobs.

She didn’t know why. She had always been a strong girl, but lately, she cried so easily. She had shed more tears in these past two days than in all the previous years combined.

Gu Lanxin embraced her tightly. "Cry if you need to. After you’ve cried it out, you can think things through and make some serious plans. Whatever you decide, Mom will support you."

...

Li Yuan drove the BMW X6 down the highway, smoking one cigarette after another.

Zhong Tingyue’s intense reaction today had suddenly made him realize something. Even though he had been reborn and now possessed a massive fortune, there were still many things beyond his control, especially matters of the heart.

If he were just playing the field before letting go, like Mr. Wang or those legendary womanizers, spending a little cash on some internet celebrities or starlets would have been fine. He could have a new one every day and even unlock various achievements... 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

But he had unknowingly invested real feelings. Having thrown himself into the game, it was no longer easy to just walk away unscathed.

I’m not a very competent playboy. When will I be like those figures from the news in my past life? Even if I were penniless, I could have a double-digit number of women hopelessly devoted to me, even earning money for me to spend. That would be mastering the art of being a playboy...

Li Yuan muttered to himself, thinking how difficult it would be to become penniless again given his current situation.

Just this morning, he had read a piece of financial news. Buffett had officially invested in Bicrown Di, causing its stock to surge. In a single day, the price had jumped by more than sixty percent. The 20 million he had invested a few days ago had, without him lifting a finger, already netted him 12 million in profit.

And this was just the beginning. As far as he knew, Bicrown Di’s stock price would increase more than tenfold around the 2009 Spring Festival before it started to decline.

It could be a setup, of course, but investing in Bicrown Di was a surefire win. At worst, his 20 million in Bicrown Di stock would be temporarily tied up, forcing him to hold it for the long term. If his funds didn’t get stuck, even a four or fivefold return would net him a profit of over a hundred million.

Even if he lost everything and went bankrupt, once Bitcoin appeared in 2009, he could use different channels and names to hoard some digital currency. In a few years, he would make a massive fortune, easily surpassing a hundred million in wealth.

Any reincarnator, as long as they weren’t a hermit living in complete isolation, could make a ton of money and achieve financial freedom with ease just by paying a little attention to market trends. The hardest parts were earning the first pot of gold and starting a business.

Since his rebirth, his personal abilities—whether emotional intelligence or business acumen—hadn’t grown much. He was coasting entirely on the cheat code of his reincarnated memories.

Tomorrow at 10 AM is the offline book signing event hosted by Yuandian Web and its partnering publisher. I’ve already announced it in the reader groups. I wonder how many people will show up. Then there’s Little Fish. She should be returning to Modu from Beijing tonight or tomorrow. She didn’t say if she’d attend the book signing. If the initial print run of one million copies sells out, I could make several million just from royalties, but that’s nothing compared to the stock market. Money comes so fast in the market, with tens of millions in profits or losses in a matter of minutes...

Li Yuan was lost in thought when his phone suddenly rang. A glance at the screen showed it was a call from Lin Yuwei, the person in charge of developing the Zhihu website.
