Chapter 564: President Qin's Generous Ordering

~7 min read 1,311 words

Half a year ago, when he first decided to invest in Bitcoin, he purchased a total of two thousand Bitcoins.

Over the following six months or so, he sporadically purchased another three thousand, and now he holds a total of five thousand in his hands.

Past five o'clock in the afternoon, the price of Bitcoin reached 1,147 US dollars.

Qin Tian decided not to wait any longer and directly placed a sell order for the five thousand Bitcoins he held at a price of 1,150 US dollars.

At this price, he could bring in 5.75 million US dollars, which, at an exchange rate of roughly 7 to 1, converts to about 40 million in RMB.

Just after placing the order, a call from Xia Nuannuan came through.

"Hello, Nuan Nuan!"

"Brother, what are you doing? Are you still in the dormitory?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"We're back from shopping and are planning to go eat at Chu Yan together. Do you want to come over?"

"Sure. Have you guys arrived yet? Should I head over now?"

"Mm-hmm, we just got to the restaurant. Come quickly; we're in the private room by the staircase on the third floor."

"Alright, be there in a second!"

Qin Tian responded, then hung up the phone.

Glancing at the computer screen, he saw that the order he placed was quite large and hadn't been bought yet.

Qin Tian didn't wait either; after closing the computer, he stood up and left the dormitory directly.

Chu Yan was just south of the school, not far away, so Qin Tian didn't drive. He walked out of the campus through the south gate and arrived at the restaurant.

This restaurant specializes in local cuisine, and the dishes suit the tastes of young people, making it quite popular among students at Jiang University.

The group from the two dormitories had eaten here many times; they often came here for occasional gatherings, important holidays, or someone's birthday.

Qin Tian hadn't thought about what day it was today, only assuming that Xia Nuannuan and the others were hungry from shopping and wanted to eat something good here.

However, after going up to the third floor, he had a very familiar sense of déjà vu.

This private room—did he seem to have been here before?

While pondering, he had already walked straight into the room.

"Bang! Bang!"

The sound of party poppers exploding suddenly rang out, and Qin Tian was startled.

Immediately following that, the sound of everyone's laughter erupted.

"Hahaha..."

"Brother Tian, happy birthday!"

"Happy birthday!!"

Chen Zhuang and Cao Mingliang, who were holding the party poppers and twisting them open, spoke up to offer their blessings.

"My birthday? Oh, right!"

Qin Tian suddenly realized and patted his forehead.

Today was indeed his twentieth birthday; he had actually forgotten it.

At this moment, Xia Nuannuan walked over holding a bouquet of sunflowers, her face beaming like a flower.

Shen Siqi and the others followed behind.

"Brother, happy birthday!"

Xia Nuannuan smiled sweetly and handed the flowers in her hands to him with both hands.

"Thank you!"

Qin Tian took them with a smile.

"Qin Tian, happy birthday..."

"Junior, happy birthday!"

Shen Siqi, Cheng Meng, Su Yan, and Senior Wang Zijun all offered their blessings one after another.

"Thank you, thank you everyone. This surprise is a bit big; you scared me!"

Qin Tian said with a smile.

Once these words were out, everyone couldn't help but laugh again.

"You all kept it so airtight; I didn't expect it at all."

Qin Tian looked around at everyone.

"Who told our President Qin to be so busy making money lately that he even forgot his own birthday?"

Cheng Meng teased with a smile.

"That's true. I'm paying today; order whatever is expensive, don't be polite with me!"

Qin Tian said loudly and generously.

With 40 million coming into his pocket immediately, today could be considered a double blessing, so he naturally wanted to be generous.

"Brother Tian, did you make another big profit?"

Chen Zhuang asked in surprise.

Qin Tian smiled without a word, tacitly agreeing.

"Alright, looks like he definitely made a lot. Today we're going to fleece the landlord hard and get some good wine!"

Cao Mingliang said with a chuckle.

"Great, I came at the right time!"

Wang Zijun said with a look of excitement.

The group arrived at the dining table inside to take their seats and called the waiter to start ordering.

"You went all out on this, did you prepare for a long time?"

Qin Tian looked at the decorations around him and asked with a smile.

"We've been here all afternoon!"

Xia Nuannuan smiled sweetly.

"You've put in the effort!"

Qin Tian nodded, then glared at Chen Zhuang and said, "Brother Zhuang, were you acting with me earlier?"

"No, I didn't know either, okay? They kept it from me alone, saying they were afraid I'd let it slip."

Chen Dazhuang complained with a bitter face.

"Then... was it that call from Shen Siqi?"

Qin Tian seemed to understand.

"Right, she called to tell me, so I just told a little lie and came over."

Chen Zhuang grinned.

"Not bad, I didn't even notice."

Qin Tian rolled his eyes.

At this moment, the dishes had been ordered around the table, with each person ordering one or two.

They didn't stand on ceremony with him at all; they didn't even look at the prices, just ordering what they liked to eat.

Qin Tian took the menu handed over by Xia Nuannuan and flipped through it casually.

The first two pages featured the restaurant's two signature main dishes: Jingchu Beef Three-Delicacy for 118, and Crispy Glass Squab for 88 each.

"Did they order these two dishes?"

Qin Tian looked at the waiter behind him and asked.

"No!"

The waiter shook their head with a smile.

"Then bring one order of this Beef Three-Delicacy, and for the squab, count how many people there are and bring one for each person!"

"Very well!"

"What is the best liquor you have in the restaurant?"

"The best liquor? That would definitely be Moutai!"

"Alright, bring two bottles first, we'll see if we need more!"

"Very well!"

The waiter nodded with a beaming smile, their pen moving rapidly to record the order.

"Is there anything else anyone wants to order?"

Qin Tian looked at the group and asked.

"No, that's all."

"Brother Tian is generous!"

"It's enough to eat, let's just order these for now!"

"Junior, you're too straightforward. I was just thinking about ordering the squab, but eighty-eight each is too expensive. This is great."

Everyone responded with smiles on their faces, very satisfied with President Qin's generous ordering.

"Then let's stick with these for now, please hurry, I'm hungry."

Qin Tian said to the waiter with a smile.

"No problem!"

The waiter smiled, took the menu, and turned to walk away quickly.

The group drank the complimentary tea and continued chatting and laughing.

"By the way, why didn't my mom say happy birthday to me?"

Qin Tian suddenly remembered this.

Every year in the past, his mother would absolutely remember his birthday; she used to prepare a little surprise for him, and the two of them would spend the birthday together.

Last year he was at school, and his mother just called early in the day.

"I was the one who told your mother in advance."

A sly smile appeared on Xia Nuannuan's pretty face.

"So that's it, I was wondering what was going on!"

Qin Tian nodded, amused.

"Shall we give your mother a call then?"

Xia Nuannuan took out her phone and suggested with a smile.

"Sure, call her!"

Qin Tian nodded in agreement.

Xia Nuannuan then dialed the number of her future mother-in-law.

Seeing this, the others quieted down for a moment, watching the two of them with smiles on their faces.
