Chapter 574: Financial Poison
"Chen Yang, I am Chu Ning's older brother Chu Zhengfeng. Regarding today's incident, I apologize to you on behalf of my sister, hoping you can be magnanimous. I can guarantee you that such things will never happen again in Goat City." Chu Zhengfeng did not want to continue indulging his sister.
Nowadays, information dissemination technology is becoming increasingly advanced. If the news of kidnapping the richest person gets out, the Chu family's situation in Guangdong Province will become extremely dangerous. For the sake of the Chu family, he could only lower himself to apologize to Chen Yang.
"Can I leave now?" Chen Yang didn't want to stay another moment in the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion. This Chu Ning is simply a lunatic. He didn't want to put himself in danger again.
"Luosen, take Chen Yang and leave first!" Chu Zhengfeng gave Luosen a look; he also wanted Chen Yang to leave the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion as soon as possible. If the Chu family's enemies get the news and come here to cause trouble, even wiping Chu Ning's behind wouldn't clean it up.
"Chu big brother, we'll leave first." Luosen immediately understood Chu Zhengfeng's meaning, pulling Chen Yang outward. He was very clear that between these siblings there would surely be another storm later. Staying would only implicate the innocent.
"No, he can't leave!" Seeing Chen Yang about to leave, Chu Ning immediately blocked the doorway.
"Ning, have you caused enough trouble?" Chu Zhengfeng glared fiercely at Chu Ning, then reached out and pulled his sister to one side.
Seeing the situation, Chen Yang quickly walked out of the private room, then jogged out of the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion. Only after getting into Ouyang Sheng's Audi car did he feel the air finally fresh and free.
"Director Chen, I'm truly sorry for today's incident. It's all my mistake, which frightened you." Luosen, after getting in the car with Chen Yang, immediately offered a deep apology.
"Director Luo, your words are too heavy; today I should be the one thanking you." Chen Yang looked gratefully at Luosen. If the latter hadn't summoned Chu Zhengfeng, he wouldn't have been able to leave the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion today.
Luosen didn't want to owe this favor. He clearly knew that if he hadn't provoked Chu Ning last night, none of this would have happened. Thinking of this, he said with a guilty face: "Director Chen, it's all my fault; I shouldn't have told her that I made money from stocks with your help."
Chen Yang heard this and wasn't angry. In Xingcheng, many people know he's skilled at stock trading. But he had never encountered someone as psychologically twisted as Chu Ning. He curiously asked Luosen: "Miss Chu clearly isn't cut out for stock trading, so why does she like it so much?"
Luosen sighed and said: "It's a long story. Her ex-boyfriend was also a famous stock expert in Goat City. But for some unknown reason, after dating her, whatever he bought turned green, and he eventually went bankrupt and committed suicide……"
Chen Yang was quite speechless. He had thought only TV dramas had husband-killing women, never expecting it to come true in real life.
"Director Luo, the Chu family should be a prominent clan in Goat City; why didn't they rescue her ex-boyfriend?" Chen Yang thought that Chu Ning could casually produce land worth two hundred million, so money shouldn't be an issue. Her ex-boyfriend could certainly make a comeback with the Chu family's support.
Luosen gave a wry smile: "That guy is just like you, a grassroots upstart. The Chu family would rather he go bankrupt and voluntarily leave Chu Ning on his own; how could they possibly rescue him?"
Hearing this, Chen Yang immediately empathized. He knew very well that some people in the Hu and Lin families also wished for his bankruptcy. The crazy woman's ex-boyfriend might have been sniped by capital that the Chu family had hired.
"Director Luo, Miss Chu's obsession with stock trading couldn't be to commemorate her ex-boyfriend, could it?"
"No!" Luosen shook his head and said: "Chu Ning's ex-boyfriend left a suicide note before dying, calling her a financial poison and a stock nemesis. To prove herself, she entered the stock market. I never expected……" He sighed helplessly but didn't continue.
Chen Yang heard this and also didn't know how to respond. Recalling his past life's experience, the stock market really does have mystical aspects. Some people buy whatever and it rises; even high-priced stocks that everyone avoids can bring them big gains. Others buy whatever and it turns green; even hot stocks, once they touch them, will suddenly crash.
This Chu Ning is clearly the latter type. For such a person, staying away from the stock market is the best contribution to society; otherwise, they harm others and themselves.
Just as Chen Yang felt relieved that the women around him were not husband-killers, Luosen's phone suddenly rang. After answering, his expression changed instantly.
"Sis, over these years I haven't treated you badly, have I? Why do you have to go to such extremes?"
"Okay, okay, I'm scared of you. I'll try to plead with him; will that do?"
After hanging up, Luosen looked at Chen Yang's expression, which was worse than crying.
Chen Yang roughly understood what had happened to Luosen and casually asked: "Director Luo, does Miss Chu want me to help her trade stocks?"
Luosen nodded, saying glumly: "She said if you don't help her trade stocks, she'll smash my company."
Chen Yang had no intention of getting involved with the financial poison again, and immediately said: "Director Luo, let her smash it! I'll compensate at full price for whatever she destroys."
Luosen said: "I'm not afraid she'll smash things. The main issue is that she's too stubborn; once she decides on something, she must do it. If you refuse her, even if you leave Goat City today, she has ways to make you come back voluntarily. To be frank, as long as she stays away from the stock market, she's still quite formidable."
Chen Yang felt a bit speechless after hearing Luosen's words. After all, he still has industries in Goat City; he couldn't ignore this crazy woman's unreasonable tantrums.
Thinking this through, Chen Yang asked Luosen: "If I go back now, can you guarantee my safety?"
Luosen said: "If Chu big brother doesn't leave, I definitely have confidence."
Chen Yang felt his words amounted to nothing. Chu Zhengfeng's rank is at least deputy chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau; he surely has official duties, so how could he constantly accompany them?
"Director Luo, why don't you tell Vice Governor Luo that the Old People's Agricultural Products Trading Company should still withdraw from Goat City?"
"No way!" Luosen had finally found a big financial backer who could both help his career and make money in the stock market. He couldn't bear to let Chen Yang leave Goat City forever. "Director Chen, rest assured, I'll even risk my life to ensure you leave the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion safely."
Chen Yang asked him again: "Are you certain?"
Luosen this time spoke with firm attitude: "I am very certain!"
Seeing this, Chen Yang immediately had Ouyang Sheng turn the car around and return to the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion.
He also really wanted to see just how toxic this financial poison was.
However, on the way back to the Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, he separately called Xiao Jian and the bodyguard stationed in Xingcheng, urging them to rush to Goat City urgently.
After experiencing this incident, he deeply realized that when going out, safety comes first!
