Chapter 580: Rivers and Mountains Are Easily Changed

In a certain private room with a stifling atmosphere at Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, Chu Ning covered her eyes and asked the person beside her, Luosen: "Brother Lu, which stock did he buy? Has it gone up?"

Luosen struggled to keep his excitement in check as he told Chu Ning: "I can only tell you, the stock he bought went up, and it went up quite well."

Chu Ning instinctively let go of her hands to see what was happening, but she didn't expect Luosen's reaction to be even faster—he directly shut down the main power.

"Chu Ning, Chen Yang has already warned you not to pry. Why won't you listen? Are you trying to drag me down with you?"

Chu Ning pouted, unconvinced, and said: "You two grown men are so superstitious—I helped Chen Yang earn 220 million dollars yesterday!"

Luosen immediately corrected: "Miss, you've got it wrong! Clearly, Chen Yang himself ran away fast enough. I calculated that if he hadn't done a T, he might have lost 292 million dollars yesterday."

Upon hearing that, Chu Ning had a bright idea: "Then I'll go curse the Fruit Company's stock, and then get him to do a T early—wouldn't that let us make another big profit?"

Luosen thought for a moment and felt the idea was actually not bad. Making $200 million in a day is a dream many people long for!

So he immediately called Chen Yang, only to discover that Chen Yang's phone was turned off again.

"That guy surely can't stand you; his phone is perpetually on standby." Luosen sighed helplessly. Since he couldn't get through to Chen Yang, he had no interest in staying longer and immediately prepared to leave.

Chu Ning immediately called out to Luosen, eager to try: "Brother Lu, why don't we try using the stock Chen Yang bought last night?"

Upon hearing that, Luosen's face changed dramatically. He immediately pleaded with Chu Ning in a begging tone: "My grandaunt, please spare me! I have elderly parents and young children, and in between there's a wife who spends money like water that I need to support. If something goes wrong, I won't survive!"

"Alright, alright, stop playing the victim—can't I just not do it?" Seeing Luosen even squeeze out tears, Chu Ning could only forcefully dismiss the idea.

Luosen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Before leaving, he specifically reminded Chu Ning not to check her US stock account.

Chu Ning was unhappy, but she could only comply.

Over the past few years, her obsession with stock trading has cost her a lot of the family's wealth. To avoid being nagged by elders at home, she now can only hole up at Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, rarely returning home more than a few times a year.

If Chen Yang could help her earn back those losses, reducing her psychological burden, she would be able to return home more often to keep her elders company.

For this goal, Chu Ning endured for a whole week. On the last day of April, she finally couldn't resist calling Chen Yang.

"Chen Yang, it's been so many days, and you still haven't given me a definite answer—are you trying to make me die of anxiety?"

"Miss Chu, I sold your stocks last night—go check for yourself."

"Besides, I'm asleep—don't call me again!"

Upon hearing that, Chu Ning immediately hung up and opened her US stock account as fast as she could.

When she saw the funds in her account, she was instantly stunned.

In just one week, Chen Yang turned her account funds from $8.45 million to $25.33 million—nearly tripling it!

Moreover, Chen Yang's recent trades not only helped her recoup her losses from the past few years in the stock market, but also earned an extra $20 million.

With this income, she can finally return home with her head held high.

"Brother, hurry over to Lingering Fragrance Pavilion!"

"Ning, I'm busy—if you're bored, just go travel!"

"Brother, are you coming or not? If you don't come, you'll regret it!"

"Fine, fine, fine, I'm coming right away—don't cause trouble!"

Half an hour later, Chu Zhengfeng arrived at Lingering Fragrance Pavilion, panting. As soon as he saw Chu Ning watching the stock market, he flew into a rage.

"Ning, I've told you not to touch the stock market—why won't you listen? How much have you lost again?"

Chu Ning immediately opened her stock account for Chu Zhengfeng to see, proudly saying: "Brother, look closely—did I lose money?"

Although Chu Zhengfeng doesn't trade stocks, he knows a bit about stock knowledge; after glancing at Chu Ning's trading record, he was instantly shocked.

"Is this really his sister, the one known as the 'Financial Poison' who makes whoever she buys die?"

But he quickly realized something was off.

First, holding a stock until it triples before selling is completely unlike his sister's temperament.

Second, the stock of IS Company felt familiar to him. After thinking it over, he remembered it was the stock Luosen had been bragging about to him.

He recalled that Luosen had said this stock was chosen with Chen Yang's help, and it had kept rising after purchase.

Could it be that Chu Ning's stock was also selected by Chen Yang?

"Ning, are you sure this stock is the one you bought?"

"Does it matter who bought it?" Chu Ning said nonchalantly: "What matters is that I made a profit—I'm no longer the Financial Poison!"

Chu Zhengfeng's biggest worry was his sister getting stuck in the stock market mire and unable to get out. Seeing her emerge from the shadow comforted him. He reminded Chu Ning: "People treat you this well—don't go causing trouble for no reason from now on!"

"I know!" Chu Ning feigned impatience, puffing her lips. However, her impression of Chen Yang had indeed changed a lot.

He's a bit flirtatious, but not lecherous in the face of beauty.

More importantly, this person values righteousness and keeps his promises; whatever he agrees to, he fulfills.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning immediately sent Chen Yang a message.

"Chen Yang, from now on in Goat City, anyone who opposes you will be considered an enemy of the Chu Family. Come back—I promise I won't treat you like before."

……

In a villa halfway up a hill in Hong Kong, after reading Chu Ning's message, the awakened Chen Yang did not immediately respond.

In fact, he didn't believe Chu Ning would change her nature. "It's easy to change the rivers and mountains, but hard to alter one's innate nature." If they returned to Goat City and later clashed over something, she would still reveal her true colors.

But since this woman is willing to stand on the same front as him, at least Ou Yang Sheng's work in Goat City will proceed much more smoothly thereafter.

Rarely having free time, Chen Yang would rather devote it to Liu Qingqing and their two children.

Since having children, Liu Qingqing devotes all her time to caring for them; the daily operations of Qingwang are handled by subordinates in Xingcheng.

Chen Yang wanted to accompany her for a stroll around Hong Kong's streets to relieve boredom, but she refused, saying she feared the paparazzi would catch them and cause a bad impact.

The more considerate she was, the more Chen Yang felt as if something were stuck in his heart, making him uneasy.

If it weren't for his midway shift of affection to Lin Wei, there wouldn't be all these complications now.
