Chapter 492: Tang Jing Gambles On A Man
Tang Jing was stunned for a moment. Her gentle face was filled with doubt. She really did not know what Su Yang meant.
She was not a fool. ‘Why would I possibly be a minor clerk if i can earn money by myself? I’m just not capable enough.
‘I’ve been working at the company for 7 or 8 years now. Those who had worked in the company during the same period have either left or become my superior’s superior. I’m the only person who’s still silently remaining in my original position.
‘Yet now Su Yang wants me to earn money, how... How could that possibly be easy?’
Su Yang could tell what Tang Jing was thinking. He patiently explained, “Don’t be too stressed. If you feel that it’s too difficult to earn money, I’ll help you.”
Tang Jing said worriedly, “But I’m afraid I can’t do it well.”
When she said that, there was no doubt about that since she had a weak presence. Even though she had been working tirelessly everyday, her presence made her look like a housewife who had been staying at home for 7 or 8 years. Her lack of confidence came from within herself.
Su Yang smiled. “It won’t be hard. What I’m going to ask you to do is within your specialty, venture capital.”
Tang Jing looked at Su Yang weakly. “Venture capital? But... I’m only average at it to be honest.”
Su Yang waved his hand. “It’s alright. As long as you show me the projects that you’ve selected, I’ll help you decide.”
Tang Jing hesitated. “But I don’t have money either.”
Su Yang shook his head. “No problem. I’ll help you earn your starting capital. Coincidentally, I’m preparing to invest in stocks with my friends, so you can join in. I’ll tell you when to buy and when to sell. It’s going to be very simple.”
“Stock investments?” Tang Jing looked surprised. She lowered her head and mumbled, “What a coincidence...”
Su Yang looked at her in confusion. “What’s a coincidence?”
“Oh, it’s fine, it’s fine.” Tang Jing shook her head to deny it.
Su Yang’s [Space Traversing Eyes] could easily determine her emotions, she was hiding something.
Su Yang realized that his upgraded ability was pretty good.
In the past, [Heaven’s Eyes] could only tell if a person was lying. However, a person’s emotions were complicated and varied, hence whether a person was telling the truth or lying was not the key to determining a person’s attitude toward them.
Now that he could see the other party’s emotions, Su Yang felt that it has greatly influenced how he could clearly see who the person is.
However, even though Tang Jing hid the truth, Su Yang did not probe further. ‘Everyone should have their own private space.’ Therefore, he said, “It’s settled then. If you trust me, you can borrow money from someone over the next few days and I’ll help you invest in stocks. I’ll probably earn 20 to 30 percent as your starting capital in a few days. As for the remaining quantity to pay off for the venture capital company, I’ll pay for it.”
Tang Jing nodded her head seriously as she looked at Su Yang with a gentle gaze. ‘He’s really... Becoming more and more like him.’
According to scientific research, a father plays a huge role in a woman’s growth. Most women would involuntarily choose someone like their father when choosing a partner.
This has even became a slight paradox:
If a father treated his wife and daughter well, his daughter would prefer to find a man like him to protect herself and her child.
If a father did not treat his wife and daughter well, the daughter would subconsciously prefer to find a man like him in the hopes of being able to change him in order to save herself and her child’s lives (although the ending was often bad).
This is an interesting psychological phenomenon.
Moreover, Tang Jing was affected by this.
Previously, when she was chatting with Su Yang at the bar, she felt that Su Yang was very similar to her father when he started his business.
Later on, Su Yang’s journey was successful and had a smooth-sailing career like her father while their relationship developed faster and deeper.
At that moment, Su Yang wanted to help her while he invested in stocks. That was her father’s final choice which he had chosen to persevere. At that moment, Tang Jing felt that Su Yang and her father’s characters seemed to overlap...
At that moment, Su Yang’s [Space Traversing Eyes] was also jumping with notifications. [Admire], [Admire], [Admire]...
Su Yang was confused.
‘Why does it feel like it’s lagging out?
‘Also, why has she suddenly admired me?
‘Weren’t we having a proper chat? I didn’t say anything.’
With that thought in mind, Su Yang took a glance at Tang Jing and got a shock. Tang Jing’s watery eyes were filled with ripples, and she did look like she was admiring him.
Su Yang touched his face and was puzzled. ‘Am I so handsome now that I can make someone fall in love with me with just 1 look? Oh my God!’
The matter was settled. In the next 2 days, Tang Jing began borrowing money while Xu Lu began to convince her cousin...
At Shanghai, in Zhenyun Investment Company located at Skynet Tower.
At the company’s resting area, Tang Jing was wearing a suit with an embroidered white shirt. She had a work badge on her neck and was on the phone.
“Yuanyuan, how much money do you have?”
Tang Jing’s best friend’s voice came through the phone. “Money? What’s wrong? Are you short of money?”
Tang Jing said, “Yes. I’ve been very poor recently, so I’m looking to make some investments.”
Tang Jing’s best friend replied, “No way, stop joking. You’re planning to invest in stocks? Have you forgotten what bad tastes you’ve got? When have you ever earned money from investing in stocks?”
Tang Jing blushed in embarrassment and explained hurriedly, “It’s different this time! I’m investing with someone else!”
When she heard this, Tang Jing’s best friend instantly sobered up. She sat up and asked, “Investing with someone else? Are you sure you haven’t been scammed?”
Tang Jing became even more anxious. “No!”
After that, Tang Jing explained her relationship with Su Yang. She talked about how Su Yang helped her find her child and how fast Su Yang progressed in the past 6 months. Then... she talked about how she moved into Su Yang’s house.
After hearing what Tang Jing said, Tang Jing’s best friend remained silent for a long time.
After a while, she said, “My dear girl, you’ve even sent yourself and your daughter right at his doorstep!”
Tang Jing blushed and was a little embarrassed. “Are you going to lend it to me or not?”
Tang Jing’s best friend said, “Don’t rush me... I need to think about it anyhow.” She hesitated for a moment before asking, “How much do you want to borrow?”
Tang Jing said, “35 million yuan.”
Tang Jing’s best friend was shocked. “Are you crazy? That’s a lot of money!”
Tang Jing’s gentle gaze was filled with determination. “I believe him.”
Her best friend was speechless.
“It’s hopeless, you’re a hopeless case.”
After she said that, her best friend hung up...
Tang Jing did not get angry when her best friend hung up on her. She understood her best friend like she knew herself. Sure enough, after less than a minute, her phone rang. With a “Ding!” Tang Jing received a text message.
She raised her phone and took a look. ‘Your savings account ending with 8300 has just received 860,000.00 yuan, your current balance is 863,741.51 yuan. [Construction Bank]’
A moment later, she received a message on her WeChat as well. It was from her best friend. ‘This is all the money I can spare, interests applied. If you can’t pay up, you’ll have to use Xiaomi as your collateral.’
Tang Jing smiled happily and replied, ‘What nonsense are you on about? You don’t even have a loan slip, go ahead and find a ghost to get back your money.’
Tang Jing’s best friend did not back down at all. ‘If you don’t return my money, I will go and snatch Xiaomi over, just so happens I haven’t got a daughter anyway.’
After the 2 of them conversed for a while, her best friend sent another message. ‘I don’t know the little boy you’re talking about, but sibling love has never ended well. For example, Wu Zetian and Tang Xuanzong, Hanwu Emperor and Chen Ajiao, the Dragon Lady and Yang Guo.’
Tang Jing was confused.
‘She seems to have mixed in some weird stuff in there as well.’
Her best friend texted again. ‘Furthermore, the 2 of you are involved with money, so you have to be extra careful and cautious no matter what. After all... no one knows what the other party is thinking.’
‘Even if the 2 of you hug each other, you still can’t feel his heart because your chests are so big.’
At the end of her speech, her best friend sent her a lecherous emoticon.
Tang Jing was speechless.
‘We were just having a proper chat a minute ago! Why have you changed all of a sudden?’
Tang Jing put down the phone and thought about her best friend’s words. There was hesitation in her eyes. ‘Is it too risky to... Borrow money and invest in stocks?’
However, when she thought about Su Yang’s attitude last night, Tang Jing’s gaze gradually turned firm. After all, a woman had to take a gamble in life. If it’s not gambling on a career, then it’s gambling on a man.
Many women had lost the most important gamble in their lives. Earning them a lifetime of suffering through that loss.
‘I’ve never gambled because I’m scared. Maybe... It’s time for me to do so now.’
...
At that moment, Su Yang did not know that Tang Jing was betting on him. He was still fiddling with the system.
Since the system had been upgraded, of course, he would have to draw some Silver Abilities and add some points to the little monsters!
Because the success of both items and monsters decreased rapidly after +3, Su Yang started to make preparations before adding points.
He first opened the upgraded [Advanced System Shop] and looked at the items inside.
[Random Point]*3
[Bronze Point]*2
[Guardian Talisman]*15
[Recipe Item] Zinc Gluconate Of Unknown Abilities (+1)
[Random Prize Voucher] Empty
[Lucky Stone]*66
Currently, the refresh timer of the items was different. The [+1 Recipe Item], the [Random Point] and the [Guardian Talisman] would be refreshed every week while the [Bronze Point] and [Lucky Stone] would be refreshed every month. However, the refresh timer for the [Random Prize Voucher] was completely random.
Hence, Su Yang counted the coins on hand. ‘I still have close to 70,000 coins left.’
Then, he bought all 3 [Random Points] and 15 [Guardian Talismans]. ‘These things are cheap. I should just buy them since they’re needed.’
Then, he clicked on the [Bronze Point] again, planning to buy the only 2 [Bronze Points] available that month.
[Are you sure you want to buy Bronze Points? The price is 3,000 coins.]
‘This price is reasonable. It’s slightly more expensive than a [Bronze Prize Voucher], but it’s definitely much cheaper than a [Silver Prize Voucher].’
Hence, Su Yang clicked [Confirm].
A moment later, 2 [Bronze Points] appeared on his system panel. Su Yang did not intend to use it now, so he did not click on it.
Then, he clicked on [Lucky Stone].
[Are you sure you want to buy Lucky Stones? The price is 600 coins.]
‘600 coins... Although they seem to be cheap, whenever I think about how each [Lucky Stone] is only capable of increasing the success rate by 10%, it’s really... Expensive.’
Therefore, he endured the pain and bought 10 [Luck Stones]. He planned to add a point onto his first little monster, Little Deeny!
