Chapter 665: Chapter 665: Defying Superstition
“The bastard’s a total coward—bet his parents ditched him as a baby and raised the placenta instead. He’s the epito of what slips through the cracks of moral education, a classic case of a beast turning into a demon.”
Yue Qingqing listened as her uncle cussed out Gui Yi nonstop for five minutes, flinging all sorts of inventive insults without taking a breath.
She clearly hadn’t held back in cursing him in her thoughts either.
Gui Yi had so connections in Lingguang City and sohow found out about Yue Jiannan going into business with soone else.
He went straight to the uncle’s office to file an official complaint and slandered him, claiming Yue Jiannan was involved in corruption and speculative dealings.
But Yue Jiannan wasn’t a powerful leader, nor did he use his connections as a side hustle, so their superiors turned a blind eye.
They couldn’t believe he was capable of corruption—how could Yue Jiannan embezzle when he didn’t even handle the experintal funds?
As for speculative dealings, that charge doesn’t even exist anymore, so the leaders cared even less. It’s not like the old days of cutting off capitalism’s tail; this isn’t even considered a mistake.
Gui Yi, seeing his own thunderous accusations failed to bring even a drizzle, got frustrated and sought out the dia to tarnish Yue Jiannan, looking to gain the upper hand through public opinion.
But the mont the dia heard Yue Jiannan was doing business with the family of a martyr, they dared not get involved.
They were still getting lambasted by the public over a previous incident of opinion reversal, especially those newspapers that had slandered Lu Zhu first; they were still receiving anger mail accusing them of distorting the truth.
Failing to bully Yue Jiannan, Gui Yi turned his wrath up a notch and started bossing Lin Yushan around.
He seed determined to dump years of pent-up work on Lin Yushan, purportedly as a way to “train the young comrade.”
Unless Lin Yushan quit her job, she couldn’t escape this glaring excuse.
Yue Qingqing thought for a mont, “Uncle, do you want to ss with him a bit?”
Yue Jiannan imdiately perked up; his niece always had so big ideas from a young age, so she surely had a plan.
“If there’s a chance, wouldn’t I ss with him till he’s dead?”
Yue Jiannan listened eagerly, and Yue Qingqing reminded him.
“Did you forget you’re still carrying the Stock God title?”
A light flickered in Yue Jiannan’s eyes; last ti, he had made a fortune right in front of Gui Yi’s eyes.
Gui Yi’s recent tornts upon his wife were definitely related to that.
Yue Jiannan, also full of cunning sches, imdiately got the hint.
“Then, let’s stage a little act in a few days.”
“Absolutely, you just watch,” Yue Qingqing said as she served up the food.
The two exchanged a smile and returned to the dining table with their bowls and chopsticks.
Seeing their expressions, Lin Yushan joked, “Were you guys sneaking snacks in there?”
Yue Jiannan touched his wife’s cheek, “Darling, your husband is here to rescue you from the fire and water.”
Lin Yushan blushed, not understanding, especially in front of Yue Qingqing.
“What are you doing? Keep it decent.” Don’t be a bad influence on the kids.
These days, everyone is more restrained. Parents don’t even hold hands in front of their kids, let alone kiss cheeks, totally embarrassed by any show of affection.
But Yue Qingqing was used to it; her parents also often fed each other ‘dog food’ and she pretended not to see.
Two days later, as agreed, Yue Jiannan ca to pick up Yue Qingqing, and they headed straight for the stock exchange.
“Yesterday when Gui Yi ca to ss up my office, I deliberately asked for leave in front of the boss at the main entrance and leaked so news. He definitely knows I’m buying stocks today.”
Yue Qingqing grinned knowingly, “He’s probably thinking about snagging a bargain.”
Yue Jiannan flashed a grim smile, “Let’s see just how greedy he can be.”
Upon reaching the stock exchange, sure enough, Gui Yi was loitering inside.
Seeing Yue Jiannan, his eyes lit up, but he pretended to act casual and didn’t approach first.
He just surreptitiously watched Yue Jiannan’s movents.
That loss last ti was baffling, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt sothing was off.
Could Yue Jiannan really predict the stock market’s rises and falls?
Disbelieving, he was determined to find out today.
