Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Vipshop experienced a frenzy of growth from the end of June, surging from 120 US Dollars to over 200 dollars in less than a month, almost a fifty percent profit. This means Zhou Yuwen earned a solid 60 million US Dollars in this one month.

Of course, during this month, Zhou Yuwen was not idle either.

Although his 2% stock was yet to be sold, thanks to Shen Ya backing him up, the money Zhou Yuwen invested in stocks had already been withdrawn. Plus, being on Wall Street with collateral, getting loans was quite easy.

In this month, Zhou Yuwen shopped frantically, took loans to buy cars and houses, purchasing as many as three or four estates and villas. Particularly, the standalone villa Zhou Yuwen bought in Manhattan's Upper East Side was even larger than Qiangzi's, with not only a private swimming pool and garden but also a unique architectural design, thoroughly modernized, designed by a renowned architect.

If it weren't for the previous landlord making a loss in stocks, he wouldn't have sold it.

Speaking of which, Lu Wanting was a bit worried; after all, the money hadn't reached their pockets yet. Such spending—was it feasible?

And Zhou Yuwen told her, to do as Romans do; America is a highly credit-based society, where everyone spends today's money today and continues spending by borrowing against tomorrow's budget.

Anyhow, Zhou Yuwen was very optimistic about Vipshop. In his plan, another month of holding the stocks should allow him to sell them all, but since he had held stocks with Shen Ya for a long time, he still had to put on a bit of a show.

This month, besides buying Vipshop stocks, Zhou Yuwen also had small holdings in Jingdong and Yiche. When he had spare money, he even bought some Apple stocks for long-term investment.

Lu Wanting felt that any woman, as long as she stayed by Zhou Yuwen's side, would fall madly in love with him.

Because Zhou Yuwen had a unique kind of charm that was indescribable, like how every stock he bought seemed to skyrocket.

Just think, in this month, barring the weekends, Zhou Yuwen made millions of US dollars every single day. Which woman wouldn't be moved by that?

But truth be told, Lu Wanting was quite a spender herself.

Previously in China, I didn't notice, just thought she was a demure girl next to Peng Xiaoyong, seemingly conservative in her interactions with people.

But since being with Zhou Yuwen, she seemed to have dropped that faux demeanor.

And one can't blame her; Zhou Yuwen was wealthy, buying her all sorts of branded clothing and luxury products, so she no longer had to wear those awkward office suits.

Every day, before Zhou Yuwen, she wore high heels paired with sheer black stockings, and on top, an off-the-shoulder white sweater showing her beautiful back.

The black sheer stockings seemed almost magical; Lu Wanting looked truly stunning in them.

The stockings made her legs appear long and slender.

And Zhou Yuwen wasn't prudish about it either; he wasn't sure what Lu Wanting had on her mind, but he had a straightforward thought: seize the day while the flower is in bloom.

So, in the newly purchased big villa, even on the sofa in the living room.

A laptop sat on the coffee table, its stock index numbers jumping wildly.

Zhou Yuwen pushed Lu Wanting down onto the couch, pulling her white sweater off her arms, exposing her beautiful back.

Her slender, stocking-clad legs raised high, Zhou Yuwen knelt on the sofa, right behind her.

With the stock prices rising, Zhou Yuwen moved with rhythm.

And Lu Wanting's face flushed quickly, sweat glistening, as she knelt there with her hands on the couch, watching the stocks climb, truly delighted, continually saying: "Up! It's going up!"

She was already in a highly excited state, unable to control her voice, making soft noises there.

And Zhou Yuwen also noticed the graph on the computer screen.

Physically and mentally greatly satisfied, he kept thrusting with even more vigor.

In the span of a month, Zhou Yuwen and Lu Wanting weren't always home. The school where Su Qing studied was nearby, so they occasionally visited the school to see Su Qing and had meals with her there.

But obviously, the incidents back in China were still affecting Su Qing.

If Zhou Yuwen wanted to be intimate with Su Qing, she wouldn't refuse, but her focus clearly wasn't here anymore. During this period, Su Qing was intensely improving her English.

Although her English was excellent, she clearly wanted to focus on other things, at least not on Zhou Yuwen.

Zhou Yuwen felt that was good for Su Qing.

His relationship with Su Qing was never purely romantic, more akin to familial; Su Qing was fundamentally different from other girls in Zhou Yuwen's mind.

That's only natural—they truly were a community of shared interests.

As Su Qing matured, she would realize this as well.

So when Zhou Yuwen brought Lu Wanting over to have meals with him, Su Qing clearly realized there was a subtle change in Lu Wanting and Zhou Yuwen's relationship, chiefly in that Lu Wanting's gaze towards Zhou Yuwen had less of the previous reverence and held a hint of an inexplicable emotion.
