Chapter 501: Opportunity only cos once, make your choice_1
“Damn, really? Made eight million in just one year?”
“That’s eight million we’re talking about, right? That could buy several properties in Zhonghai, couldn’t it?”
“Your cousin is that good at stock trading? He’s practically a stock god, right?”
“Haiyang, could you talk to your cousin and let him take us with him to trade stocks…”
As soon as a few childhood friends heard that Sun Haiyang’s cousin had made eight million in the stock market in just one year, they got as excited as if they were on steroids.
To them, eight million was an unimaginable sum.
Even Han Xiaoxiao was sowhat tempted.
Although she wasn’t usually very ambitious about her career and wasn’t too motivated to make money, naturally, she didn’t want to miss out on a good opportunity to make so.
Seeing that everyone started treating him with great respect, Sun Haiyang felt more proud.
“No problem, we’re all folk of our own kind. I’ll talk to my cousin and get him to include you guys. But let be clear, trading stocks involves risk. If you guys make money, I don’t expect you to thank . But if you lose, you can’t bla , okay?”
“Of course, of course,” they agreed.
“That’s only fair, adults have to be responsible for their actions.”
“Why would we bla you? You’re getting us in on the chance to earn money; we should be thanking you.”
“Co on, let’s all toast to Haiyang.”
At Zhang Xiaoming’s suggestion, everyone raised their glasses to toast Sun Haiyang.
Sun Haiyang was on cloud nine and readily accepted the toasts.
Just as he was about to drink, he suddenly noticed that Tang Feng was still sitting there motionless, neither standing up to toast him nor showing any sign of participation.
This instantly annoyed him, and he slamd his glass down on the table, “Tang Feng, what’s this supposed to an? You looking down on or what?”
The lively atmosphere cooled down instantly, and everyone turned to look at Tang Feng.
Tang Feng looked back at Sun Haiyang with an expressionless face, “What are you talking about? How am I looking down on you?”
Sun Haiyang glared at him through gritted teeth, “What do you an how? Everyone else is toasting , why aren’t you?”
Tang Feng couldn’t help but laugh, “I ca here today to attend a gathering of old friends, not to kowtow to anyone. Your wealth is your business, what’s it got to do with ?”
“Tang Feng, watch your words! Haiyang ant well, how can you be like a dog that bites Lu Dongbin and doesn’t recognize a good heart?” Zhang Xiaoming, who had just maintained a certain level of politeness towards Tang Feng, imdiately jumped out to defend Sun Haiyang.
“Exactly, Haiyang is taking us to trade stocks, what’s wrong with toasting to him? Why are you being so sensitive?” Kong Xue also clearly sided with Sun Haiyang.
Zhou Dashan and Xu Xiaofeng were in a difficult position.
They both wanted to make so money following Sun Haiyang and didn’t want to offend him.
But they also rembered their friendship with Tang Feng and didn’t want to speak harshly to him.
In the end, they chose to remain silent.
But Han Xiaoxiao didn’t have so many scruples, she stood up abruptly, slamming the table, “What are you trying to do? It’s just a toast, what’s the big deal? We’re all old friends, do we really need to do this?”
Seeing Han Xiaoxiao stand up for Tang Feng again made Sun Haiyang even angrier.
Zhang Xiaoming and Kong Xue, adept at reading the room, imdiately turned their guns on Han Xiaoxiao.
“Xiaoxiao, aren’t you in the wrong here? Haiyang has been really good to you, why do you always stick up for Tang Feng? What benefits has he given you?”
“Indeed, in what way is Haiyang not better than him? Handsor, wealthier, and he’s so devoted to you. By acting like this, aren’t you just hurting Haiyang’s feelings?”
“Xiaoxiao, please don’t be misled by soone’s sweet talk; Haiyang is truly the best person for you, we can all feel that.”
“That’s right, stick with Haiyang, and you’ll live the good life for the rest of your days…”
Back and forth, the two tried to stir her up until Han Xiaoxiao’s face turned ashen, and she slamd the table.
“Enough! What does Sun Haiyang’s wealth have to do with ? If you guys want to fawn over him, that’s your business, but leave out of it. So what if I like Tang Feng? Even if he’s just a penniless bum, a beggar, I still like him, and it’s none of your business…”
She probably spoke out of anger and didn’t watch her words.
As soon as she said this, the entire private room went silent.
Everyone looked at Tang Feng and Han Xiaoxiao with weird expressions.
It seed like sothing was going on between the two of them.
Chances are they had hit the sheets the previous night.
Perhaps Tang Feng’s bedroom skills were impressive, and he had completely conquered Han Xiaoxiao.
Otherwise, why would Han Xiaoxiao defend him like that?
Even Tang Feng was flabbergasted.
Out of the blue, she starts declaring her feelings for him?
Now, how should he respond?
Reject her?
That didn’t seem very kind, did it? After all, Han Xiaoxiao was defending him, and he couldn’t let her lose face in front of everyone.
Accept her?
That seed too hasty, didn’t it? He wasn’t ready for this emotionally yet.
In fact, Han Xiaoxiao was a bit guilty herself.
She had indeed been provoked by Zhang Xiaoming and Kong Xue’s attitude.
To curry favor with Sun Haiyang, they kept linking her to him.
In her anger, she had blurted out that statent.
She regretted it as soon as she finished speaking.
But now that she had built up the atmosphere to this point, if she backtracked, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing?
At this mont, everyone saw Sun Haiyang’s face darken at a visible rate, staring intensely at Tang Feng and Han Xiaoxiao, “I knew it, you two really got together?”
Tang Feng didn’t give him any good looks, “Please watch your mouth. What do you an ‘got together’? We’re both single adults; if we get together, what’s it to you?”
Sun Haiyang burst into a sarcastic laugh, violently sweeping the plates and bowls to the floor, pointing at Tang Feng angrily, “Mr. Tang, from this mont on, we’re strangers; if you’re ever so poor that you’re begging, don’t expect a penny from .”
Tang Feng burst out laughing, “Don’t worry; even if I end up begging, I’ll never co to your doorstep.”
Sun Haiyang’s eyes seed about to spit fire as he swept his gaze over the people present.
“I’m giving you all a choice now, between him and . You can only choose one and must cut ties with the other. You only get one chance; make your pick.”
After speaking, he turned his gaze first towards Zhang Xiaoming.
