“Sir, are you alright?”
A service staff standing outside the elevator happened to grab hold of the young man.
The young man steadied himself and turned around to look at Chu Luo fiercely.
Chu Luo looked back at him with an innocent expression, but she felt a little regretful that she didn’t see through this person’s skills. She walked out of the elevator and passed by him.
When she walked out of the hotel, there was already a car parked outside the fountain.
The car window rolled down, revealing the face of the chauffeur who had taken her there last time.
Chu Luo walked over. The chauffeur said respectfully to her, “Miss Chu, please get in.”
Chu Luo opened the car door and got in.
“Miss Chu, where do you wish to go?”
Chu Luo thought for a while. She was unhappy and definitely had to go abuse someone to vent her anger. She said, “Go to the stock market here.”
The chauffeur sent her to the building of XX City’s stock market trading center.
Chu Luo looked at the stock market building that looked far different from the one in Silicon Valley and pushed open the car door with a playful attitude.
The chauffeur quickly stopped her. “Miss Chu, you need to open an account here. You’re not from our country, so it’s more troublesome for you to do so. Do you want me to go with you?”
Chu Luo definitely had no objections.
Compared to the stock market building in Silicon Valley, this place was extremely noisy.
There were so many people in the hall on the first floor that it was like visiting a wet market. They came from all walks of life, and all of them had a notebook in their hands. They sat or stood staring at the stock market screen on the entrance.
They laughed, shouted, or cried. Their faces were tense, agitated, excited, or desperate.
At this moment, someone suddenly broke down and started wailing. As if she had gone crazy, she wanted to smash the wall, but she was quickly dragged out by two security guards.
Then, there came the sympathetic voices of the people nearby.
“Recently, I lost all the money from my Lausanne Corporation stocks. How many people have had a breakdown today?”
“Wasn’t Lausanne Corporation’s development momentum very fierce previously? Why did the stock prices drop drastically just like that?”
“Who knows? Maybe it was just a deception before.”
“Luckily, I used all my money to buy the shares of other companies. Otherwise, I would have ended up like these people today.”
“Me too.”
“Hey, recently, the shares of the games company under Blazing Glory have skyrocketed. Did you guys buy them previously?”
“No. How can we, the laypeople, buy Blazing Glory’s shares? If anyone were to buy them, it would be those big shots upstairs.”
“That’s true. I’m so envious of those who bought the shares of the Blazing Glory Corporation. Owning the shares of any company under Blazing Glory is like having a golden rice bowl. One can just sit at home and wait for money to roll in.”
…
Chu Luo walked past these people with the chauffeur and went straight to the service window to settle the administrative procedures for opening an account.
These matters were all handled by the chauffeur. Chu Luo only waited for a few minutes at the side before it was done.
The chauffeur handed her a room number. “Miss Chu, I’ve booked a VIP room for you.”
Chu Luo didn’t know much about these things. She thanked him and the two of them were enthusiastically led upstairs by a staff.
As soon as they went upstairs, they saw that there were rooms everywhere. Every room had a number written on it. Chu Luo and the chauffeur followed the numbers and entered a room.
There was the equipment needed to speculate about stocks in the room. Before going out, the staff told them to press the bell if there was anything they needed.
Chu Luo sat in front of the computer. First, she checked what Lausanne Corporation did. She realized that it was actually a skincare company. After thinking for a while, she started entering the stock market.
All afternoon, the big shots who were speculating in the other rooms were shocked.
“Someone is actually buying up Lausanne’s shares in bulk?”
“Who is this person? Don’t they know that Lausanne has offended someone and is being suppressed?”
“It might be someone from the Lausanne family.”
…
When the people guarding the hall on the first floor saw that someone was buying Lausanne Corporation’s shares, they all sold them out, regardless of how low the price was.
In the end, Chu Luo realized that she had no money left.
She thought about where she could borrow money from and realized that besides Li Yan, no one else could lend her so much at once.
She took out her phone and dialed a number.
Li Yan picked up the call quickly, but his voice was lower than usual. “What is it?”
Chu Luo went straight to the point. “I’m investing in stocks. Can you lend me some money?”
Li Yan: “Sure.”
After Li Yan finished speaking, he called his secretary over and said to him, “Send some money to Luoluo immediately.”
Then, he said to Chu Luo, “The secretary will transfer the money to you immediately.”
Chu Luo nodded and said, “When I earn money, I…”
Li Yan interrupted her. “Just treat me to dinner tonight.”
Chu Luo was stunned for a moment before saying, “But I haven’t earned money yet.”
Li Yan: “Your earning money is only a matter of time. Coincidentally, I’m free tonight.”
“…” Chu Luo: “Alright.”
Li Yan: “Where are we eating? If you don’t know, I can help you arrange it.”
Chu Luo really had no idea. “Then help me arrange it.”
“Okay.” Li Yan was obviously very busy. “I still have some work to do. I’ll pick you up later.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Chu Luo looked at her phone and thought: ‘I’m just borrowing money. Why must I treat him to a meal immediately?’
There was a notification from the bank on her cell phone that the money had arrived.
Chu Luo put away her thoughts and quickly went to buy Lausanne Corporation’s shares.
At five o’clock, Li Yan called Chu Luo on time.
When Chu Luo walked out, Li Yan’s car was already waiting there.
In the car, Li Yan looked at Chu Luo’s happy face and asked, “Feeling happy?”
“Yeah,” said Chu Luo. “I’ve acquired 40% of Lausanne’s shares this afternoon.”
When Li Yan heard this, his brows subconsciously softened. He deliberately asked, “Why did you want to acquire the shares of that company?”
“Their shares are so cheap. Why shouldn’t I buy them?”
“The Lausanne family’s cosmetics products are very famous in the US, but their share price suddenly dropped so drastically. Aren’t you afraid that it’s a trap?”
“How could that be? Weren’t you the one suppressing the company in secret?”
When Li Yan heard this, a trace of a smile flashed across his eyes.
Chu Luo looked at him in surprise and said, “You look especially handsome when you don’t emit a cold aura.”
Li Yan turned his head to look back at her. His fingers on his knees moved, and in the end, he couldn’t help but reach out to touch her face.
Chu Luo was stunned by his actions and asked blankly, “What are you doing?”
Li Yan replied seriously, “There’s something dirty on your face.”
“Where?”
After saying that, Chu Luo raised her hand to wipe it.
“Don’t move. I’ll wipe it for you.”
Chu Luo stopped moving. She felt his fingers move on her cheek a few times before he took his hand away.
“Done.” Li Yan changed the topic and asked, “What do you plan to do after acquiring Lausanne?”
“Isn’t that company producing cosmetics? I’ll just give them a few formulas, then. I guarantee that those will be a hundred times better than their current cosmetics products.”
Chu Luo smiled. “It’s a good deal to be able to buy a large company at such a cheap price.”
“Yeah, but you’ve bought only 40% of the shares currently. That’s not enough.”
“Are the other stocks in Lausanne’s hands?”
“Right.”
Chu Luo’s eyes darted around as she thought about how to get those shares from Lausanne.
Li Yan looked at her but didn’t say anything else.
The car drove for a while and stopped outside a restaurant.
Li Yan didn’t get Chu Luo to get off immediately. Instead, he asked her, “Do you have any medicine that can darken one’s skin?”
Chu Luo looked at him in surprise.
Li Yan said, “I don’t want to sit in a wheelchair while eating with you.”
Chu Luo thought for a while and reached into her pocket. She took out a pill and said to him, “Pour me some water.”
Li Yan took out a bottle of water from the small fridge, along with a small exquisite glass. He poured the water into the glass and handed it to her.
Chu Luo put the pill in the water.
The water quickly turned black.
She dipped a tissue into the water before applying it to his face.
The two of them were too close. Soon, their breaths intertwined.
A faint fragrance wafted into his nose. Li Yan asked in a hoarse voice, “Is this the same ointment as last time?”
“No,” Chu Luo said. “This is another kind of medicine, but it doesn’t affect the skin. It will fall off once it gets wet. So don’t let your skin get wet before you go back.”
“Mm.”
After a while.
“Done.”
Chu Luo used the wet tissue Li Yan had handed her to wipe the black liquid off of her fingers, then said with a smile, “No one will recognize you in this state for sure.”
Li Yan nodded and took off his coat before putting on his black shirt.
Only then did the two of them get off the car and walk towards the restaurant.
This was a high-end restaurant, and those who could eat here were all upper-class people.
The environment inside was very elegant and romantic.
There was a piano in the middle of the restaurant and a young man was playing it.
Li Yan had had someone book a table in advance, and the waiter brought them to a private room.
The design of the private room was also very stylish.
Chu Luo didn’t know that this was a couple’s private room. After entering, she sniffled and immediately raised her guard. She quickly whispered to Li Yan in their empire’s language, “Li Yan, there’s something wrong with this private room.”
“What is it?” Li Yan tilted his head to look at her.
Worried that she would alert the enemy, Chu Luo approached him and whispered into his ear, “There’s an incense burning in here. If you drink some alcohol, it will make people…”
Chu Luo stopped talking. Li Yan looked at her deeply. “Mm? What will it make people do?”
“It can make people sexually attracted to each other.”
The corners of Li Yan’s lips curled up. “Is this fragrance poisonous?”
“No.”
“That’s fine. Many restaurants abroad have this fragrance. It only enhances the atmosphere.”
“What atmosphere?”
“The atmosphere for eating.”
“Huh?” Chu Luo looked at him with bright eyes, feeling that he was spouting nonsense.
“It’s just dinner. Since we’re already here, let’s eat before we leave.”
