High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 107 - 106: Caring for the Stomach

After the stock market closed, Li Yang accompanied Jiang Banxia to practice for Subject Three of the driving test.

Subject Three was much simpler compared to Subject Two. As the exam approached, Jiang Banxia was already quite proficient.

This afternoon, through Xiangnu’s hint, Li Yang learned that Jiang Banxia had already pulled out of Green Water Group and switched to other stocks.

Indeed, staying in Green Water Group was boring; the total market value was just that little bit.

Without a big market trend to push it, it was hard for Green Water Group to break through a market value of 3.5 billion, leaving little room for Jiang Banxia to maneuver.

Regardless of profit, this represented Jiang Banxia once again stepping out of her comfort zone and choosing another challenge.

Even if Green Water Group was struggling, as long as she continued to manage it, she could still earn hundreds of thousands a month easily, but she wasn’t clinging to that.

Back home, after having a little meal, they rested for over an hour and prepared to take a bath.

Only to find upon entering the room that the clothes were gone.

"Xue, where are my clothes?"

He asked casually.

Xue Ning was tidying up the living room and replied, "Those are new clothes; they need to be washed before wearing. I’ll bring them to you in a moment, you just go ahead and wash up first."

"Oh, okay."

Li Yang didn’t sense anything peculiar, after all, Xue Ning was acting quite normal today.

He had expected Xue Ning to drink a bit at night, but apparently, he had overthought.

Things were the same as when his parents were around.

Just halfway through the shower, he heard the door open, and then the bathroom door too.

Xue Ning, holding a few pieces of clothing, put them on the sink beside him, while Li Yang was still showering. Xue Ning squatted down in front of him.

Then, pointing with her small hand, she said, "Look up quickly..."

The so-called "a word is law" refers to this moment.

Her hair was wet.

Occasionally, she glanced up at Li Yang, and eventually, her face too was splashed with shower water.

As if she was caught in the rain.

...

"Xue, my parents asked you to take care of me, is this how you do it?"

"Yeah, haven’t I taken care of your stomach already?"

Xue Ning stopped drinking.

For Li Yang, Xue Ning not drinking was almost like a new version of her.

Her drinking always gave off an unsettling vibe; once she stopped, that feeling of unease was gone.

"Have you been making a lot of money trading stocks recently?"

Xue Ning’s somewhat lazy voice came through; she had just fallen asleep from exhaustion but suddenly woke up again for some reason.

"Yeah, not bad. Your account has already grown over seven hundred thousand, so I won’t pay you your salary for now. We’ll talk about it after the New Year..."

Xue Ning turned over and whispered in Li Yang’s ear, "Then I’ll work one more year, plus the school gave me a raise."

"Work one more year, let my parents rest at home, and next June, you can take them traveling wherever they want..."

"Will they agree to stay home? I heard them on the phone; they’re already secretly looking for work."

"They will, definitely!"

Xue Ning suddenly took Li Yang’s arm and gently bit it, leaving a faint bite mark.

No wound, the kind that would heal in a few hours.

"What are you doing?"

Li Yang didn’t even feel pain.

Xue Ning smiled and said, "Look at the row of teeth marks, doesn’t it look like a watch? I originally wanted to give you a hickey, but I was afraid someone would see it."

Xue Ning actually didn’t need to be so cautious; she could easily overturn Li Yang’s trades.

But for Li Yang, having his trades overturned would not feel comfortable. So the more cautious Xue Ning was about these things, the more at ease he felt.

The next second, he also bit Xue Ning.

"Ouch, what are you doing..."

"You gave me a watch, so I’m giving you a pocket watch..."

...

Li Yang woke up groggy, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

Or rather, a bit too comfortable.

Groggily opening his eyes, he saw Xue Ning already awake.

"So early in the morning..."

The next second, Xue Ning leaned over.

She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and said in a forlorn voice, "I’m having cravings..."

This was probably why she quit drinking.

Because drinking really did cost her a lot of opportunities.

She didn’t know how many more of these opportunities she’d have.

Half an hour later, Xue Ning leaned against Li Yang and said, "There’s one more thing, yesterday my mother-in-law asked about those two securities accounts. I said it was my boyfriend managing them, also helping my godfather with investments."

After Dou Ying met with Li Likun, she thought of that account from before. She’d checked recently and found the trading records of the two accounts were very similar, so she asked Xue Ning about it.

The reason being, she thought Xue Ning’s boyfriend could be that bigwig who logged onto the dragon and tiger list.

After all, she couldn’t possibly suspect that Xue Ning’s boyfriend was really Li Likun, right?

Li Likun was just an ordinary person.

And Xue Ning’s explanation had no flaws; she simply wanted to meet him but was refused by Xue Ning.

Li Yang looked at Xue Ning’s delicate little face and smiled.

He had said before, betting on Xue Ning, he’d never lose.

...

Successfully passed the third part of the driving test, and Xiangnu also sent over the contract and transferred one million to Li Yang’s account.

Then Xiangnu made a transaction with Yangfan Entertainment, selling the Champion Scholar’s Notes to them.

"Hey, with this transfer, I didn’t make any profit and have to pay more taxes next year. What am I doing this for?"

"Aren’t you doing it for my son?"

"Well... yeah... your son is really handsome. Not many in my school are better-looking than him, but I still like money more..."

"Okay, okay, it’ll all be yours in the future!"

"Hahaha, then I’ll start pursuing him now. I’ll send your son a photo later... hehe..."

"Hmm?"

"Hmm, what? Oh, I forgot to call you, Dad..."

...

Li Yang switched his WeChat, but didn’t receive the photo from Xiangnu.

He swore he just wanted to see what she looked like, and had no other intentions.

Result... this liar!

With the money in hand, after passing the fourth part of the test in the morning and getting the driving license, they should have headed back, but Jiang Banxia suddenly said, "Master Li, let’s go buy a house."

"Hmm?"

Jiang Banxia was fully capable of buying a house on her own.

Besides, buying a house is such a waste of money. Keeping the capital in the stock market, in six months, you could at least make enough to buy four or five houses.

The real feast hasn’t even started yet.

"Let’s go, let’s go, buy one... I’ve already found a good house."

Li Yang said, "I thought you were already so strong, you didn’t need a house as your backbone, and I barely earned this money, I don’t want to spend it now..."

Jiang Banxia quickly said, "It won’t cost much. How about I lend you a hundred thousand, then I’ll put in another hundred thousand, and we can do it on installments, I’ll pay the mortgage later..."

Before Li Yang could speak, Jiang Banxia directly hailed a taxi and said, "Driver, to Shihe Mansion!"

Jiang Banxia was very excited.

"Will buying a house make you very happy?"

"Of course, it’s my only wish. No matter what happens in the future, I won’t be afraid."

Jiang Banxia herself has few flaws. Her desires are moderate, and she doesn’t care much about reputation. Her only weakness is a lack of security.

"Alright, let’s buy a house!"

"It’s for the two of us together!"

"Okay!"

With this kind of relationship, if you really end up begging for food in the future, Jiang Banxia wouldn’t have the heart not to give you a bite to eat, right?

Wouldn’t you get something better to eat?

Li Yang truly felt he might end up begging...

Damn it, Bai Qing isn’t human! Damn it! She’s ruining my state of mind!

Just hope there’s some retirement money left by then...

...

Shihe Mansion consists of large open-plan flats, essentially high-end residences.

It’s not in the best location, but the overall structure is definitely a dream house for countless people.

Since it wasn’t completed yet, they could only look at the model homes there.

As is well known, the furniture in model homes is usually scaled down to a certain extent.

A house that’s actually small looks spacious because the furniture is downsized, but when you move in and buy a big bed, you’ll find the experience far different from the model home.

But at Shihe Mansion, the furniture is full-sized, because the place is truly luxurious and grand.

Of course, the price is grand too.

Unfinished handover, priced at 4399 per square meter.

The location of Qingshui Bay is better, still small and finely decorated, the delivery price in 2010 was only 2800, and now it’s only about 3500 to 3600.

The smallest size is 163 square meters, the largest is 227 square meters.

Definitely not buying the small one, the bigger one is more comfortable to live in.

For this type of housing, the clients are always those looking to improve, so the bigger the better in the market.

Buying a house now, you’ll never lose.

The floors currently on sale have already topped out, they can get the certificate within three months at most.

An unexpected scene popped into his mind.

"Buy it! Buy it! Buy it!"

Jiang Banxia didn’t take much time to think, she immediately made the deposit, they’d go to the bank together tomorrow to handle the process.

It was only when Jiang Banxia mentioned they should have joint ownership that she startled the saleswoman.

"I thought you two were a young couple."

Jiang Banxia blushed a little.

After they left, Jiang Banxia started calculating, "We need a down payment of thirty thousand... Should I cover it all?"

"No need, we’ll each pay fifteen thousand, and share the mortgage too. A card will be issued later, and we’ll each deposit money into it monthly."

"Hmm? Has Master Li bought property before?"

"Haven’t eaten pork, but haven’t I seen pigs running?"

Jiang Banxia pondered for a moment and asked, "Does Master Li want to get married?"

"What’s so good about marriage? Living together every day, even a fairy would get boring. Besides, if things don’t go well in the future, while still unmarried, I might even fool a rich woman into sponsoring me. It’s known that remarried men are less than dogs, once married, my value would plummet."

"Do people really get bored?" Jiang Banxia felt like her parents seemed quite loving.

"Of course, either both have low desires and live stably, or they have to be super rich, able to discard 99.99% of annoyances."

"What kind of person is Master Li?"

"I’m the kind with high desires but very poor. My only wish is to achieve financial freedom... make 3 to 5 billion!"
