Chapter 13: If He’s Crazy, Then We’re All Crazy

(Page 1 of 3)

Xu Wan neither agreed nor disagreed.

Three stocks on the verge of being delisted, each rising by more than fifteen percent? Ha! No matter how she looked at it, it sounded utterly absurd.

Still...

Since that was what the client wanted, she had no intention of saying more.

After all, it was Chen Xing’s money. If he lost it, that had nothing to do with her.

As long as he didn’t choose to jump from the roof of their office building, everything would be fine. Otherwise, she would have to pay someone to clean up the mess.

“Mr. Chen, as long as you’re prepared to bear the risks, that’s fine. But I should still remind you that our company charges a commission. Whether you make a profit or suffer a loss, we deduct three percentage points in advance.”

“Understood. That’s fine.”

Watching Xu Wan invest all fifty million into the three stocks he had selected, Chen Xing nodded.

“Ms. Xu, I’ll be relying on you from here on. If anything comes up, call me anytime.”

“Of course, Mr. Chen. Take care.”

After seeing Chen Xing out, Xu Wan turned around and immediately called Li Moyan.

Unable to hold back, she complained, “Darling, what kind of person did you introduce me to?”

“Do you know what he just did? He poured all fifty million into the stock market in one go and bought three stocks that are about to be delisted. Tell me, isn’t this man crazy?”

“Could he have escaped from Qing Shan Mental Hospital?”

The moment Xu Wan called Chen Xing a lunatic, Li Moyan became displeased.

“You’re the lunatic!”

“I’m telling you, if he’s a lunatic, then every one of us is insane!”

Xu Wan fell silent.

“You have no idea how formidable he used to be. If I told you, I’d be afraid of scaring you to death!”

“Darling, aren’t you exaggerating a little?”

Xu Wan clearly did not believe her.

“I can’t be bothered to argue with you. Just open those beautiful eyes of yours and watch. It won’t be long before he dazzles you blind!”

“All right, all right, I get it.” Xu Wan rolled her eyes and teased, “Darling, why do I get the feeling you’re interested in him? Wow, our resident man-repellent, the unattainable queen of Shenzhen, has finally changed her ways!”

“But I have to admit, Chen Xing really is handsome. A man like that would be a pleasure to look at if you kept him at home as a pretty boy. The only flaw is that he already has a child!”

Xu Wan smacked her lips, her face full of regret.

“Hey, hey, I’m warning you—don’t get any funny ideas. Chen Xing is mine. If you dare try to steal my man, don’t blame me for fighting you to the death!”

“Got it, got it. I won’t steal him. Anyway, I have things to do, so I won’t keep the great Lawyer Li any longer.”

Xu Wan casually hung up.

After hesitating for three seconds, she dialed another number.

“Hello, President Su? This is Xu Wan from Shenhua Securities.”

Su Qianxue’s cool voice came from the other end. “Has Chen Xing found you and decided to invest in stocks?”

“Yes. Your foresight is truly remarkable. He did just come to me, and he invested all fifty million in the stock market. What’s more, he bought three blue-chip stocks. I tried to persuade him, but he insisted.”

Su Group.

Inside Su Qianxue’s office, her graceful figure stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows. She swirled the red wine in her glass, a faint, icy smile touching her exquisitely beautiful face.

She was breathtakingly cold and alluring.

“That foolish man is simply asking for trouble.”

“I knew it. Without me, there’s nothing he can accomplish.”

“Let him buy them. Don’t stop him. I want to watch him lose every last cent of that fifty million. I want to see him devastated, reduced to the miserable state of a stray dog.”

On the other end of the line, the corner of Xu Wan’s mouth twitched slightly.
