Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Lu Wanting had a former classmate who worked as a stockbroker, so it was easy for her to find a channel for leveraged financing.

The leverage could go up to thirty times.

However, there were conditions.

And Zhou Yuwen met those conditions.

She communicated with Lu Wanting in English and asked how much leverage to use?

Lu Wanting thought ten times would be enough.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuwen on the side heard this clearly and blurted out: "Thirty times."

Lu Wanting's classmate looked at Lu Wanting.

Seeing Zhou Yuwen's insane demeanor, Lu Wanting could only sigh: "Let's go with him."

So, Zhou Yuwen leveraged thirty times.

Five million US dollars were forcibly raised to one hundred fifty million.

If the stocks he bought dropped three points, there would be a forced liquidation, leaving not a single cent from the five million.

After getting the leverage, Lu Wanting's classmate arranged an office for them at the trading floor.

Zhou Yuwen initially planned to go all-in on Vipshop, but Vipshop was currently valued at only 6 billion US dollars, with only 10% circulating in the market.

If Zhou Yuwen bought fully, he would own 2% of the shares, which was too big a target.

In such small-cap stocks, at most, you could buy 0.5%, about thirty million, and you had to buy with different accounts.

The remaining funds had to go into some unobtrusive stocks, which might even incur a slight loss, such as Jingdong, Dangdang, Bitauto, airlines.

These stocks were carefully selected by Zhou Yuwen, which wouldn't earn much but absolutely wouldn't lose.

Of course, Vipshop was Zhou Yuwen's main focus.

In the following week, Zhou Yuwen and Lu Wanting frequently visited the stock exchange. With the help of Lu Wanting's friend, Zhou Yuwen's stock acquisition plan went very smoothly, and the thirty-fold leverage was not completely utilized, allowing Zhou Yuwen more room for fallback.

In just a week, Zhou Yuwen acquired 1% of Vipshop's shares on the secondary market.

Meanwhile, while acquiring Vipshop stock, Lu Wanting received news that a major shareholder wanted to sell 1% of Vipshop shares and asked Zhou Yuwen about it.

Zhou Yuwen naturally wanted it; there was no reason not to earn money when you could.

Thus, Zhou Yuwen ended up owning 2% of Vipshop's shares, all in a matter of days.

Throughout this week, Lu Wanting couldn't sleep at night, feeling like her hair was falling out.

The pressure was immense.

Every day she not only had to buy stocks with different accounts but also worry about the stock price of Vipshop dropping, especially after she managed to acquire the stocks, feeling that every drop in price was making her heart jump.

She couldn't help but admire Zhou Yuwen; no matter the situation, he could always sit on the sofa drinking red wine.

Fortunately, this week, the stock named Jingdong rose quite well, already up by 20%, and should have been bought more.

On the last trading day, Vipshop, which had been steadily climbing, suddenly dropped by one point, gripping Lu Wanting's heart with tension!

She looked to Zhou Yuwen and found that he was also quite nervous.

But he forced himself to stay calm, saying it was just a strategic adjustment.

Lu Wanting could only sigh inwardly, hoping for the best!

After finishing up, they returned to the hotel.

Lu Wanting took a hot bath as usual and then followed up on the company's movements.

At this time, Peng Xiaoyong called.

He asked if she got to enjoy herself on her rare trip back to New York.

"No." Lu Wanting answered.

Peng Xiaoyong was curious why she didn't go out to have fun.

Lu Wanting told him: "I've been with your brother Yuwen at the New York Stock Exchange all week."

"Stock Exchange? He's buying stocks?"

"Yes, buying a lot. I found that your brother is a madman, which explains why he makes money," Lu Wanting said.

Peng Xiaoyong was quite pleased hearing this, saying honestly, he kind of hoped to see his brother eat humble pie.

So he asked, "Which stock did he buy?"

Lu Wanting replied, "This involves commercial secrets, I can't tell you."

Peng Xiaoyong was helpless upon hearing this and laughed, "Can't even tell me?"

Lu Wanting remained silent.

Peng Xiaoyong felt resigned, "Alright, I won't press you."

"Yuwen is still young and impulsive," Peng Xiaoyong commented.

Lu Wanting somewhat agreed, feeling the immense pressure lately, saying that Zhou Yuwen bought many stocks with not-so-bright prospects.

But also some with good upward momentum.

"What I can do now is to try to help him offset a bit, letting him lose as little as possible," Lu Wanting said.

Peng Xiaoyong nodded, agreeing with Lu Wanting's approach, then asked when she would return.

"Next week, I guess." Lu Wanting thought and replied.

Today Vipshop went down by one point; if it continued downward, a three-point drop would trigger compulsory liquidation. If it dropped by two points, Lu Wanting would persuade Zhou Yuwen to close the position.

This way, at least it could ensure Zhou Yuwen wouldn't lose money now.

Peng Xiaoyong said, okay, he would pick her up by then.

"Okay."

They agreed just like that.

After a two-day break.

Zhou Yuwen gave Lu Wanting a bonus of ten thousand US dollars, telling her to go out and have some fun.

But Lu Wanting found no joy in playing.

Until Monday's trading day.

Everyone watched the stock chart nervously.

Vipshop opened up by half a point but soon started declining, quickly reaching -0.8.

Including the last trading day, it had lost a total of 1.8 points.

Seeing things weren't right, Lu Wanting panicked for a moment, hesitated, and adjusting her gold-framed glasses said, "Why don't we sell a part of it? This way, we would have more room to maneuver."

Yes, at this moment, Lu Wanting was wearing gold-framed glasses.

No other way, staring at the colorful screen for a whole week, it was too much for anyone.

On Wall Street, it was full of elites coming and going.

Working here for a week, Lu Wanting more or less gained a bit of the elite aura, donning a black little suit paired with a narrow skirt, and then a pair of slender long beautiful legs wrapped in black stockings.

It wasn't an attempt to flirt with men.

But since Lu Wanting's classmates were there, along with friends visiting her over the week, each of these former classmates was now dressed in professional attire.

Lu Wanting surely didn't want to fall behind,

so she carefully picked out a black outfit.

This little suit, with the lace-trimmed bustier in the front.

Coupled with her fluffy long hair, it was indeed quite captivating.

But alas, in the face of millions of dollars, nothing else mattered.

At this time, Zhou Yuwen was also genuinely nervous, seemingly hadn't seen the stock dip to this point.

Was it a memory error?

In response to Lu Wanting's suggestion.

Zhou Yuwen thought for a moment and said: "Let's wait a bit more, maybe it's just a technical adjustment."

As soon as he spoke, it dropped to -1.9.

Lu Wanting got a bit anxious but stopped speaking, instead joining Zhou Yuwen in holding their breaths.

Waited the whole morning.

The Vipshop stock never turned red.

In the afternoon, it continued to drop massively.

With only 0.3 points left until forced liquidation.

Lu Wanting couldn't hold back any longer, abruptly standing up and exclaimed, "Sell it! If we don't sell now, we will really be forced to liquidate!"

However, Zhou Yuwen remained curled up on the sofa, saying nothing.

"Zhou Yuwen,"

Lu Wanting couldn't resist, stepping in her high heels to Zhou Yuwen.

Yet she saw Zhou Yuwen gently say, "It's rising."

"?"

Lu Wanting was stunned, turning back to look at the chart.

She found, the Vipshop trend had indeed started rising?

This?

It wasn't over, this rebound was like coming back to life, unstoppable!

In the last fifteen minutes, it turned from red to green, surging three points in an instant.

"It rose!?" Lu Wanting looked at the stock chart, full of disbelief.

But at this moment, Zhou Yuwen finally exhaled a long breath, regaining his previous confidence, and nodded calmly, "It rose."
