Chapter 12: Three Blue-Chip Stocks

The fat man panicked but stubbornly held his ground like a dying duck.

“You—you already have a boyfriend, and yet you’re still going on blind dates. You’re the one trying to scam for marriage!”

“I’m willing. I have a boyfriend and I’m two-timing. What’s it to you?”

Li Moyan rolled her eyes. “Fatso, before I lose my temper, you better scram, or I’ll have my boyfriend beat you up!”

She winked at Chen Xing as she said this.

Chen Xing could only glare at the fat man symbolically.

At 1.82 meters tall and seventy kilograms, Chen Xing’s presence was indeed intimidating to the squat, short fat man.

The fat man slunk away in shame.

“Pfft, to think you’d try to scam me into marriage. Have you no shame?” Li Moyan scoffed.

She then glanced at Chen Xing and smiled, “If you’re going to scam someone, it might as well be someone like him. Maybe I’d even fall for it!”

Chen Xing was both amused and exasperated.

“Well, what do you want to talk about?” he asked.

Li Moyan invited him to sit with effortless grace.

In front of Chen Xing, she casually lit a lady’s cigarette and asked if he wanted one.

Chen Xing waved his hand.

“Honestly, I never thought the top lawyer of Shenzhou would be like this in private...” Chen Xing began.

“Like what? Not ladylike at all?” Li Moyan rolled her eyes again. “Ladylike is just for show. I, Li Moyan, only do what I want.”

So bold!

Chen Xing laughed wryly. “No, you misunderstood. I just didn’t expect that quiet good girl with thick academic glasses buried in her textbooks to change so much after a few years.”

“I’m curious—does your teacher know you’ve become like this?”

Li Moyan rolled her eyes once more.

“Forget it, don’t mention that old man! I don’t dare see him now, scared he’ll nag me to death!”

“Alright, let’s get to the point. Did you come to see me for a divorce?”

Her beautiful eyes locked tightly onto Chen Xing’s, with a hint of aggression.

“Ahem...” Chen Xing cleared his throat awkwardly, “We already signed the papers. Just this morning, we went to the civil affairs bureau. So there’s no need to trouble Lawyer Li any further.”

“Divorced? Really divorced!” Li Moyan was not disappointed at losing a client; on the contrary, she seemed a bit excited.

Chen Xing was baffled.

Why was this woman so thrilled about his divorce?

What a schadenfreude!

“It’s like this—I’m planning to invest in stocks, but I don’t know anyone in that field. Lawyer Li, you have broad connections. Could you introduce me to a stockbroker?”

“That’s it? No problem, I’ll contact someone for you right away!”

Li Moyan quickly pulled out her phone, made a few calls, and eventually reached a reliable stockbroker.

It was a broker from Shenhua Securities.

“Thank you,” Chen Xing said politely.

Li Moyan smirked. “Helping you this much and all you say is a simple thank you? Isn’t that a bit fake?”

“If you’re really grateful, my grandfather has been asking about you a few times recently. Find a chance to visit the old man.”

Chen Xing’s heart sank.

The old man was like a thorn in his side. Every time he thought of the elder’s earnest teachings and high hopes for him, guilt weighed heavily on his heart.

“Alright, I promise. I’ll visit the teacher tomorrow.”

“Perfect, I have the day off tomorrow. Call me before you go, and I’ll come with you.”

“Okay, great!”

Chen Xing stood up. “Lawyer Li, you’re busy with countless matters. I won’t keep you. See you tomorrow.”

“I’ll see you out.”

Li Moyan personally escorted Chen Xing to the door.

Only after watching him drive onto the road did she reluctantly withdraw her gaze.

“Divorced! Yeah! You’re finally divorced!

“Chen Xing, this time you won’t escape from my grasp!”

Li Moyan strode back to the office with a confident swagger.

As she passed through the workspace, her subordinates were stunned by the rare, unyielding smile at the corner of her mouth—more unyielding than an AK-47’s trigger.

Some didn’t understand why the top lawyer of Shenzhou was so happy.

“Lawyer Li seems to be in a really good mood!”

“Who was that just now? Could they have been a big client?”

“No idea, but there’s definitely money to be made—didn’t you see Lawyer Li’s smile? It’s tougher than an AK!”

“Lawyer Li is amazing. Just casually taking on a case and it’s a big client. I wonder when we’ll have that kind of skill?”

“But wait, usually when Lawyer Li takes on a big case, she’s super serious. She’s definitely not like this today. Do you think Lawyer Li is in love?”

Those words brought silence first.

Then the entire office erupted!

Everyone knew Li Moyan was the most famously single and unattainable woman in Shenzhou.

A man-repellent.

No man dared enter her personal space.

Behind the scenes, they even nicknamed her the “Heartless Nun in Reserve.”

For such a woman to be in love?

Unbelievable!

...

That afternoon, after picking up Yaya from school, Chen Xing drove straight to Shenhua Securities.

Shenhua Securities was the largest and most professional securities company in Shenzhou.

Without exception.

Many of Shenzhou’s top tycoons entrusted their investments to Shenhua Securities.

Their investment risk ratio was the lowest.

The stockbroker introduced by Li Moyan was named Xu Wan, one of the top ten star brokers at Shenzhou Securities.

Xu Wan was in her thirties but still very graceful.

Because she never married, her figure remained well-maintained.

Voluptuous and sensuous.

Xu Wan led Chen Xing and Yaya into a private lounge and began handling all the necessary formalities for his stock trading.

Yaya sat obediently nearby, watching her father discuss stock trends with Xu Wan. Her large, pure eyes were full of curiosity.

Though too young to understand stocks, she knew her father was preparing for something big!

Finally, Xu Wan completed the account setup.

“Mr. Chen, how do you plan to allocate your funds?”

“I actually have a few good stocks I can recommend,” Chen Xing said, shaking his head.

“No, thanks. I already have a plan. Please help me buy these three stocks in full: 001, 009, and 010.”

Upon hearing the stock codes, Xu Wan’s expression changed drastically.

She looked at Chen Xing in disbelief.

“Mr. Chen, you mean to invest all your funds in just these three stocks? Forgive my frankness, but the market outlook for these is poor. One is even on the verge of being delisted.”

As a seasoned stockbroker, Xu Wan knew the market inside out.

She had no confidence in these three stocks.

This was a terrible gamble.

Chen Xing smiled confidently. “Don’t worry. If I’m right, in one week, these three stocks will each rise by more than fifteen percent.”
