Hu Huihui knew Zong Shing and Yu itong had both given you thank-you gifts, so she ntioned it to Su Heyuan: "What should we give?"
Su Heyuan smiled and said, "My relationship with Jiaxin doesn’t require such formality."
Hu Huihui frowned and said, "How can you say that? Even brothers clearly settle accounts. Jiaxin helped you, so we need to show so appreciation. If you take it for granted, she won’t think of you when sothing good cos along."
Hearing this, Su Heyuan was pleased and explained with a smile, "I know that even brothers settle accounts. Jiaxin likes old items. Over the years, I’ve had Heming and friends quietly search for them and buy them at the original price for her."
Besides, every ti he returned to the Forty-nine City, he would bring Jiaxin her favorite foods and buy things she liked. Knowing she liked tuanshan fans and double-sided embroidery, Su Heyuan would have people look for them in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Once he even found a special fabric and let Jiaxin take over after finding its inheritor.
Hearing him say this, a smile appeared on Hu Huihui’s face as well.
Su Heyuan explained, "Jiaxin and I are like brother and sister, even though we’re not blood-related. Family doesn’t need to be so formal."
Anyway, he would give Jiaxin any good things he found. Initially, he was reluctant to take money, but Jiaxin said that even siblings should settle accounts clearly, let alone them, who are just sworn siblings.
Hu Huihui pouted and said, "You didn’t tell , which worried ."
Su Heyuan quickly apologized, admitting his carelessness, and only after consoling her for a while did she smile again.
After feeling good for a while, Hu Huihui talked about her friends: "After Jiaxin warned last ti, I called up my friend and advised her to transfer her investnts from Little Days. Seeing she was reluctant, I suggested she sell part of it to preserve her principal. Unfortunately, she didn’t listen. She called at noon, crying on the phone, regretting not heeding my advice."
Speaking of this, she couldn’t help but sigh, "I advised her for quite a while back then. I even said that both Jiaxin and Nie Zhan, as well as us, had sold it, but she just couldn’t listen. Telling she regrets it now, what’s the use?"
Really, if it weren’t for so many years of friendship, she wouldn’t have gone out of her way to call. Just look at how Nie Zhan and Jiaxin’s businesses have grown—people should trust their judgnt! As a fallback, even if they misjudged, it would only an less profit. But if their judgnt was right, it would an losing everything. From an investnt perspective, one should listen to advice.
Su Heyuan had gone through this himself: "Sotis, when you’re in the thick of it, no one can convince you. Once, I made a big win in forex trading and was about to invest all the money back when Jiaxin scolded , making change my mind."
Hu Huihui laughed and said, "Having soone who can scold you awake is good. If you don’t listen to my advice in the future, I’ll also find Jiaxin and have her scold you."
While she was dating Su Heyuan, soone ca up to her saying that Su Heyuan and Lu Jiaxin had close ties, and she did have so reservations initially. Luckily, her sister-in-law was close with Jiaxin and knew about their relationship, so she didn’t believe what the person said. Otherwise, she might have fallen for it.
Now that they were married, she was even more thankful she didn’t listen to those trying to sow discord. Her husband and Jiaxin truly had sibling-like ties, very close, as if they were family.
The next day, Su Heyuan called Jiaxin and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law said my brother-in-law and Tao Yong both gave gifts, so we should do sothing too. Jiaxin, what would you like? I’ll think of a way to find it for you."
He was not the sa as Hu Zhifeng or Tao Yong. After selling his assets in Little Days, the funds went into shorting the Nikkei 225 index with Jiaxin’s guidance—1 billion Hong Kong Dollars on five tis leverage. It hadn’t settled yet, but there was no doubt they would earn billions when it matures and sells.
Lu Jiaxin retorted, "What do you think I’m missing?"
Su Heyuan pondered over this question as well, "You’re missing jewelry and accessories. For important events, you need to wear jewelry that represents your status."
Lu Jiaxin laughed, "Right now, I’m attending work and social events basically wearing clothes from our own brands. Have you heard anyone say I dress shabbily?"
She was currently the top female tycoon in Hong Kong, even if she went out in slippers, no one would say she was shabby—at most, they would comnt she was casual. With her status, saying she’s shabby is like slapping themselves in the face.
Su Heyuan understood her point, laughing as he said, "These two brands were both created by you. Wearing them is like advertising; who would say you’re shabby?"
In the past two years, Lu Jiaxin’s clothing company had expanded rapidly, now not only covering casual and professional attire but also children’s wear, sportswear, lingerie, and more, with the clothing being sold to Southeast Asia.
Lu Jiaxin added, "In recent years, Ah Zhan bought a lot of jewelry, so auctioned pieces. When I co across sothing I like, I’ll buy it too."
She did buy, albeit sparingly. Not only did she like a minimalist decor style, but she also preferred simple and clean fashion. In her daily life, she only wore a watch, wearing other jewelry only at banquets when necessary.
Su Heyuan, once again forced to swallow a mouthful of PDA, said, "I won’t beat around the bush. A friend of mine has a batch of good jade, and I’ll buy it for you."
Lu Jiaxin didn’t refuse; she actually preferred jade over jewelry, but very few people knew this, not even Zong Shing and Yu itong. She laughed and said, "Sure, but choose so for my sister-in-law first, and I’ll take the rest."
In Hong Kong, there were no secrets, especially when Jiaxin didn’t ask for it to be kept confidential. Word quickly spread that Nie Zhan and Lu Jiaxin had predicted a plunge in the Little Days’ stock market and withdrew all their investnts in Japan. Friends and family around them also benefited, exiting before the crash.
Fu Ye felt quite uncomfortable when he got the news. He had bought Japanese stocks and even bought a house in Tokyo. Without the information, the stocks trapped him, and the house couldn’t be sold, leading to losses of over forty million. If he hadn’t beco estranged from Nie Zhan, he surely would’ve gotten the news in advance like Tao Yong.
When he broke up with Yu itong, his relationship with Nie Zhan and others hadn’t grown distant. It was after that gathering where Lu Jiaxin had an unpleasant encounter with Chen Weiwei, and subsequently, Nie Zhan never invited him to gatherings again. He thought about making ands, but Nie Zhan deliberately kept a distance, leaving him helpless.
Even though they were emotionally entangled, Nie Zhan wouldn’t distance himself from Fu Ye, given their friendship over the years. But with his wife going crazy, attacking people indiscriminately, that definitely wouldn’t work.
Just then, Chen Weiwei called and said she had no money: "Transfer five hundred thousand, I need to buy things for the kid."
Fu Ye wouldn’t transfer her money. He said, "If the kid needs sothing, have Auntie Yang make a list, and I’ll have soone buy it."
If he sent her money, it would end up in shopping, spending less than a tenth on the child. After it happened a few tis, he was unwilling to give cash directly anymore.
Upon hearing no money would be given, Chen Weiwei started to curse.
Fu Ye was not going to indulge her and directly hung up the phone. If it weren’t for still needing the Chen family, he would have divorced long ago—how could he endure this crazy woman?
Thinking about the gentle and considerate Yu itong, Fu Ye felt a bit sad. If he hadn’t broken off the engagent, he would now undoubtedly have a happy life and a successful career. Alas, there’s no dicine for regret in this world.
