Chapter 96: 95. Investment Intentions (Please add to favorites, please vote!)
At seven o'clock in the evening, Liu Hui declined the kind offer from Liu Lu to go back and have dinner, and instead arrived at the hotel entrance with Wu Xin.
Liu Lu did not insist, as she truly had not yet sorted out her own thoughts regarding her current family situation.
From the entrance, one could see the magnificent decorations inside, and both Liu Hui and Wu Xin were somewhat intimidated.
"Xiao Hui, is it really here? Are you sure we didn't get it wrong?" Wu Xin whispered.
Ning Qing had originally planned to drop them off, but she had encountered something and left early.
In any case, since the place was here, she wasn't worried about Liu Hui and the others getting lost.
"It should be here; look, the name and the address both match." Liu Hui looked closely at the room card, though despite saying this, her tone was somewhat uncertain.
"Let's go, why don't we just go in and ask?" Wu Xin said, summoning her courage.
Very quickly, under the verification of the staff, they were led into the room where Ning Qing often stayed.
"Two ladies, Miss Ning said that you may use anything inside as you please; if you have any other needs, you can call the front desk," the attendant said with a smile.
"Thank you."
After the two entered, they were stunned by the luxurious decor inside.
"Xiao Hui, a room like this must cost over ten thousand a night, right?" Wu Xin said excitedly as she threw herself onto the soft sofa.
"Probably, I don't know either." Liu Hui had never stayed in such a high-end hotel before.
"No, you told me your cousin wasn't doing well; is this what you call not doing well? Look at that outfit she's wearing, it's at least over a hundred thousand, and I took a look, that bag she carries is a limited edition, sixty-six thousand." Wu Xin usually knew quite a bit about luxury goods; even though she couldn't afford them, it didn't stop her from knowing about them.
Liu Hui was also in a daze at this moment; she didn't know how her cousin had suddenly become a rich person, not only having a complete makeover in her attire but also having such a wealthy and powerful friend.
At first, Liu Hui had been guessing wildly whether Liu Lu had divorced Sicheng and latched onto a wealthy man, or if Sicheng had won a big lottery prize.
But after hearing Liu Lu mention it briefly, she knew this came from her brother-in-law's biological father.
After Liu Hui and Wu Xin had a comfortable bath, they wanted to call home, but in the end, they didn't.
She didn't know the specific situation, and if she misunderstood, it wouldn't be good to cause a misunderstanding for everyone.
Moreover, it wasn't long until the New Year, and Liu Lu and Sicheng would definitely be going back then, so she simply didn't make the call.
However, Liu Hui's heart was filled with envy at this moment; her cousin seemed to have truly come out of the bitterness and into the sweetness.
Zhang Family.
During dinner, Liu Lu talked about meeting Liu Hui and also mentioned what Ning Qing had done.
She actually understood very clearly in her heart that although it seemed Ning Qing was helping Liu Hui for her sake, it was actually because of her father-in-law, Zhang Ran.
After listening, Zhang Ran said, "Since she is your cousin, why didn't you bring her back to eat with us? Wouldn't that be a bit improper?"
"It's like this, she was tired today and hasn't rested well these past two days; I'll bring her over when there's time," Liu Lu explained.
Zhang Ran had only asked casually; after all, she was his daughter-in-law's relative, and he couldn't let people gossip.
After finishing this topic, Liu Lu said again, "Ning Qing said she wants to invite me to invest in her Game Club, what do you think?"
Zhang Ran understood what Liu Lu meant; based on his understanding of Liu Lu during this time, it would be difficult for her to spend money lavishly, and as for investing, it was also unlikely.
And the reason Liu Lu was asking now was probably because she wanted to return Ning Qing's favor.
"You can handle this yourself; I said that money is for you all, you don't need to ask for my opinion," Zhang Ran said.
"But..." Liu Lu looked hesitant.
Zhang Ran knew what Liu Lu was worried about and said with a smile, "You can invest; the Game Club industry has great future prospects."
"People's life pressure is getting greater and greater now, and games are a very good way to relieve stress."
"Especially some competitive games; they cost little, have high playability, and allow one to fully experience the joy of gaming. More and more people will play them, and as long as the number of people paying attention increases, the benefits that can be brought about will not be underestimated."
Seeing Liu Lu's half-understanding expression, Zhang Ran thought for a moment and said, "You can treat the gaming circle as the entertainment industry, and the Game Club is equivalent to a talent agency; imagine the development prospects in this."
Of course, this analogy by Zhang Ran was still somewhat inappropriate, but it was the way for Liu Lu to understand it the fastest.
Sure enough, after hearing Zhang Ran explain it this way, Liu Lu showed a look of sudden realization; although there were still many things she didn't understand, she understood a little more.
"The most critical thing is that your investment in Ning Qing's Game Club is also equivalent to helping Sicheng's company develop," Zhang Ran said again.
Liu Lu was puzzled.
Zhang Ran then told her about the games Sicheng's company was about to develop, as well as the role of the Game Club for games.
After he finished, Liu Lu's heart settled down a bit, and she really became interested in investing in Ning Qing's Game Club, rather than just being purely grateful to Ning Qing.
It wasn't until ten o'clock at night that Sicheng returned; he had been with Meng Mingxuan all day and had also learned about the Game Club from him.
Sicheng didn't expect that his biological father had not only bought a game company for him but had also made so many preparations for him.
While feeling warm in his heart, Sicheng also felt a rare surge of fighting spirit.
Zhang Ran had already done this much; if he still couldn't succeed, then he wouldn't have the face to see Zhang Ran.
In the evening, Liu Lu also told him about Ning Qing's Game Club; upon hearing that Zhang Ran had encouraged her to invest, Sicheng also expressed his full support.
The next morning, Liu Lu looked at the clothes in her wardrobe with some worry; she didn't want to dress so high-profile for work today, and when she was busy at the hospital, it was very likely she would ruin the clothes. Once ruined, it would be enough to make her heart ache.
But to let her wear her old clothes, she was a bit unwilling; everyone has a love for beauty, let alone women.
Liu Lu used to be unpicky and didn't dress herself up much, but that was because she had no money and couldn't bear to.
Now that she had money, and the clothes were already bought, leaving them there seemed even more wasteful.
Finally, under Sicheng's suggestion, she wore the cheapest clothes and shoes she had bought the day before, but even so, the total for this outfit was still nearly ten thousand.
Regarding work, Liu Lu had no intention of quitting; although she had money now, Liu Lu's heart was actually not very settled.
Having a job and being able to earn money herself every month would make Liu Lu feel much more at ease.
Moreover, Zhang Ran had no intention of letting Liu Lu quit her job to be a full-time housewife; everything was according to Liu Lu's own wishes.
When she arrived at the hospital, as expected, Liu Lu's outfit still attracted the attention of her colleagues, especially Wang Jiajia.
And when they learned that these were all bought by Liu Lu's father-in-law, they were even more envious.
First, he bought a house for the couple, and it was written in both of their names; now he bought such expensive clothes, and finally, when they learned that Liu Lu had also bought a new car, it wasn't just envy, but jealousy.
At this moment, many nurses had flickering eyes, thinking about whether they should go home and press their own husbands to ask if they were hidden second-generation rich kids.
