High School Belle Fell in Love with Me-Chapter 339 - 172: Liu Ruyi’s Reputation (Double-Length) (Part 2)
"Yes, yes, yes, I understand, I truly empathize with you. After all, who hasn’t been misunderstood at some point in their life? But I feel that your heart is definitely not small. Even if you don’t repay grievances with kindness, at least you can repay grievances with straightforwardness."
"That’s the level of Confucius, which I definitely can’t reach. I can only repay grievances with grievances."
...
After finishing the meal, when Lei Yiming prepared to pay the bill, he realized Li Yang had already paid ahead of time.
He felt a bit awkward, "Wasn’t it agreed that I would treat..."
"Haha, this doesn’t count as me treating. It’s class funds. The classmates in our class have mentioned several times wanting to treat Teacher Lei to a meal. Today, I just took the opportunity as a representative."
Actually, it was Li Yang’s own money. He didn’t have to privately use class funds.
The main thing was, there was no money left in the class fund. Each semester, one gathering uses it all up.
After the two of them parted at the school, Li Yang turned around and left the school again, heading to Jiang Banxia’s place.
When he arrived, he found Jiang Banxia reading a book.
"Wow, Master Jiang has started studying? You guys should only have the last two exams left, right? Preparing to take them?"
Jiang Banxia awkwardly said, "It seems not possible yet. I’ve fallen too far behind, and it’s not something that can be made up quickly."
"Then don’t bother making it up. I’ll find some connections and get the teacher to pass you."
"No way! I not only want to catch up on my studies but also lose weight! I must get back to 104 pounds in half a month!"
Li Yang took a look; it seemed she hadn’t touched the food he had bought for Jiang Banxia before.
"How much do you weigh now? You’re not actually fat."
"But I feel anxious. I’ve gained a few pounds. If I don’t take it seriously, who knows, maybe I’ll unknowingly gain dozens of pounds in the future."
"Right, right, right, Master Jiang, it’s great you have this determination! How about this, let’s go have a midnight snack?"
"I already said I want to lose weight."
"Only when you’re full enough can you have the energy to lose weight! I just came back from outside the school; there are stalls everywhere on the roadside, lots of barbecue... The aroma wafted into my nose. After I just had a meal, I felt hungry again. Sprinkle some seasoning on top... sizzling with oil... alternating between fatty and lean... Oh dear..."
Jiang Banxia: "..."
"Let’s go! Let’s go eat barbecue! Lose weight after eating!"
She got up immediately, pulling Li Yang out the door.
"Let’s go! Since you haven’t got the money yet, today my treat."
...
"Master Li, I want to climb Mount Tai during summer vacation. Is it on our way back?"
"It’s definitely on the way. Even going to Changbai Mountain would be on the way."
"Hhh, I feel like I’ve been spoiled by you. Honestly, I felt really guilty towards Xiangnu before, but thanks to you stepping in, otherwise I would’ve panicked, not knowing how to deal with it..."
"I was the one who told you to liquidate everything after all..."
"But it turns out you were right to tell me to do that."
In these last two weeks, even Jiang Banxia would’ve needed to pay up. It could even have overturned her trading model, possibly costing her more than a regular person.
Her trading model might not be weak, but ultimately, it had only been validated in a bull market; it had almost no method for dealing with a bear market.
If it weren’t for Li Yang, she felt she would not only have invested all her profits, but even recovering the principal would be considered good.
Li Yang said, "But I also stifled a top genius. Who knows, maybe you could’ve made money in a bear market and shocked the entire financial world in one go."
"There’s no such genius... If there is, Master Li would definitely be the only one."
Jiang Banxia was still very nervous, but it was because of feelings.
Li Yang is truly an all-rounded warrior, strong from every angle with no flaws.
While she herself, was full of flaws.
Today, someone also approached her to say a few good words to Li Yang about returning the funds to Cen Yeming and the others.
However, Jiang Banxia was disinclined to talk to Li Yang about it. Why should something end so easily just because Master Li was offended?
It’s just that...
Thinking of this, she opened her mouth again and said, "Master Li, do you think if I accidentally offended you someday, would you get angry?"
"Such as?"
"There’s no such example, just a hypothetical..."
"How would I know, what if you find a boyfriend and flaunt him in front of me? Not only would I get angry, but I’d feel murderous."
"No, no... hhh, Master Li, do you have a sense of crisis too?"
Jiang Banxia always thought she was the one with a sense of crisis.
"Of course, I definitely have a sense of crisis, but it’s not too bad. If one day you don’t want me anymore, I’d find someone else."
"Ahh! You can’t do that!"
Jiang Banxia hurriedly hugged Li Yang’s arm and said, "We’ve been to the hotel so many times, no one else would want me now. I must cling to Master Li..."
...
Jiang Banxia actually wished that this time without Li Yang stepping in, she could solve this matter smoothly on her own.
Calmly predicting the risks, withdrawing the funds in advance, and having those investors willingly take their money back.
In the end, she didn’t achieve a single one of these, and it was all managed by Li Yang.
Not only did it not ease her inner sense of crisis, but instead, it became more intense.
...
...
On June 29th, A-shares opened with a sharp drop of 5.78%, becoming the last straw to break the investors’ backs.
Virtually all the profits from the past six months were wiped clean at this moment.
Those who really made money had already exited the market a few days ago.
On this day, Liu Zhengxiong officially went bust!
The chips were forced to be liquidated by half, but they couldn’t be sold at all. No one would take over the falling limit stocks.
He had no choice but to wait for the next opportunity.
On this day, he lost sixty million in allocated funds.
On June 30th, A-shares dropped slightly by two points.
