Chapter 459: Some Rejoice, Some Sorrow (Part 2)
"So amazing!" Mrs. Zheng echoed enthusiastically.
Zheng Yanyan sneered dismissively, thinking, how does someone else's earnings concern you? Why bring it up?
The boy remarked, that's why, abroad offers more opportunities than at home.
In the domestic market, you might invest in A-shares for ten years and still not achieve financial freedom.
But abroad, it's different.
It's all nonsense.
Zheng Yanyan had seen the world, and felt disdainful listening to this, thinking that not making money in A-shares is a problem, but is it that easy with US stocks?
And earning a billion US dollars in half a month?!
This kid clearly hasn't seen big money; do you know what a billion US dollars means?
You made that in half a month?
Fed up with the kid's posturing, Zheng Yanyan couldn't help but snicker, saying, "Ah? Earning a billion in half a month, that's amazing, then he should be quite famous here, right? How come I've never heard of him?"
It's true that Zheng Yanyan is beautiful; normally, she wouldn't speak while the elders were talking, let alone boast about her worldly knowledge.
But aren't there other young women here?
And quite beautiful ones at that.
So every boy wants to show off a bit.
Especially after Zheng Yanyan showed great interest, the boy sat up properly: "You've never heard of him?"
"Oh, that boy is from Jinling, maybe it's too far for you, so not hearing about him is normal."
Zheng Yanyan burst out laughing, saying, "Oh, what a coincidence, I study in Jinling, I've finished my freshman year, and I've never heard of such a legendary figure? What's this legend's name?"
Zheng Yanyan thought, in Jinling, the most incredible person is my husband!
What are you trying to show off to me!?
Watch how I expose you!
The four-eyed boy felt something odd in Zheng Yanyan's tone, like she was being sarcastic.
But the boy didn't mind, as he genuinely admired Zhou Yuwen.
Ten billion in half a month!
Who wouldn't admire that?
Right now, some online forums are starting to idolize Zhou Yuwen!
They think he's a one-in-a-million genius.
So the boy adjusted his glasses and calmly said the name of the person he admired.
"His name is Zhou Yuwen."
"Bang!"
Zheng Yanyan turned pale instantly.
The family was hosting guests at the ivory-white dining table, with Zheng Yanyan and her mother on one side, and the boy with his mother on the other.
Before the boy said the name, Zheng Yanyan was indifferent and ready to mock the boy, asking, what name are you talking about, I've never even heard of it.
But when she heard the name Zhou Yuwen come out of the boy's mouth.
Zheng Yanyan couldn't stay calm, suddenly standing up from the table.
"You! What did you say his name is?!"
Zheng Yanyan stood at the dining table, looking incredulously at the boy.
At this moment, the boy was a bit frightened, even stammering, "His name is Zhou, Zhou Yuwen!"
"Bang!"
Zheng Yanyan slammed the table! With her head down, her demeanor shocked everyone, even her mother wondered what madness her troublesome daughter was up to!
"Yanyan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? If you're not, go back to your room quickly." Mrs. Zheng began to regret bringing her daughter out; isn't this purely embarrassing now?
However, it was too late; Zheng Yanyan was already in a state of extreme excitement.
She suddenly looked up, staring at her mother enthusiastically.
This really startled Mrs. Zheng.
Before she could react, Zheng Yanyan fiercely grabbed her mother's arm and exclaimed with joy and tears: "My boyfriend!"
"?"
Mrs. Zheng was dumbfounded, and even the four-eyed boy and his mother looked at each other, not understanding the situation.
Until Zheng Yanyan said excitedly again, "Zhou Yuwen! He's my boyfriend!"
"My boyfriend made ten billion in stocks!"
"US Dollars!"
At this moment, Zheng Yanyan truly lost her composure, but who wouldn't in her situation?!
That's one billion US dollars!
Eight billion!
Zheng Yanyan thought, even if I'm just a mistress, Zhou Yuwen could at least give me a hundred million to pamper me, right?
At this moment, Zheng Yanyan truly felt that being a big or small wife no longer mattered.
She had been jealous before, thinking when Su Qing makes a fuss, Zhou Yuwen would run overseas to accompany her.
If she had known, she would have caused a scene too?
But now, Zheng Yanyan didn't think like that anymore.
Zheng Yanyan now thought, if Su Qing got pregnant, she could even serve her during her postpartum confinement.
She felt as if it were springtime, and she didn't even care about the stunned expressions around her, quickly going back to her room to call Lu Lin.
She wanted to tell Lu Lin: "Linlin! We're rich!"
Her behavior, however, made her mother feel very awkward, so she could only laugh dryly, saying, this girl, she's quite carefree, don't mind her.
Her friends also laughed dryly in response.
Only the bespectacled boy brought by her friend seemed a bit uneasy, and finally, when leaving, he couldn't help but ask: "Auntie, is Zhou Yuwen really Yanyan's boyfriend?"
"Uh." Mrs. Zheng thought, I don't even know.
Seeing the boy's expectant eyes, Mrs. Zheng said: "This child never told me about her relationship, Xiao Fang, don't overthink it."
"No no no, Auntie, I'm not overthinking. I wanted to ask if Yanyan's boyfriend is Zhou Yuwen, could you perhaps..."
"Introduce me to Zhou Yuwen..."
"...."
For a moment, Mrs. Zheng really didn't know what to say.
At this time, Zheng Yanyan had the door shut tight, calling one person after another to share the joy, not just Lu Lin, but also Tao Tian, Qu Jing, and a few others.
She even wanted to call Shen Yu.
Hey, Shen Yu, did you know Zhou Yuwen is in New York?
"Did you know how much Zhou Yuwen made?"
Before the call finished, she saw her mother already knocking on the door; she had to ask clearly when her daughter started dating?
Also, what's the deal with this Zhou Yuwen?
The news of Zhou Yuwen making waves on Wall Street quickly spread online, and in Zhou Yuwen's class group, they kept re-posting soft news about him, with even the school's freshman group discussing it.
"Zhou Yuwen is our school's senior!"
"Ah, I'm just in New York, maybe I can run into senior (dog head emoji)"
Of course, there were people who weren't happy.
Like the Jiang family, where the atmosphere was a bit strange...
A half month ago, Jiang Xinyi had a breakup.
At that party.
Su Qing tearfully asked that question.
Jiang Xinyi was standing right behind Zhou Yuwen at that time, and her tears were also welling up, she held onto Zhou Yuwen's hand, she even threatened Zhou Yuwen not to answer.
But Zhou Yuwen eventually answered.
Jiang Xinyi's tears rolled down her cheeks.
Jiang Xinyi left.
Liu Jing resentfully told Zhou Yuwen: "You'll regret this!"
Thus, for these fifteen days, Jiang Xinyi locked herself in her room, crying her eyes out every day.
Meanwhile, Liu Jing was angrily ranting every day, saying she never expected Zhou Yuwen to be this kind of person!
If she had known, she would never have let them be together!
"Don't worry, Xinyi, mom will definitely help you find someone better than that guy in the future!"
Liu Jing's words only made Jiang Xinyi feel worse.
She put all her hatred on her mother, angrily telling Liu Jing: "You decide everything! I said it wasn't right at the time! You insisted we be together! Then after being together, you say it's not right! Didn't you say Zhou Yuwen was suitable for me! Didn't you say I'd be happy with him!?"
"Now look! Are you satisfied!?"
As Jiang Xinyi said these words, her neck turned red, practically screaming through her tears.
Liu Jing felt truly heartbroken seeing her daughter like this.
She hugged her daughter, letting her cry in her arms, her face turning icy, she said: "Xinyi, don't worry, I won't let him get away with this! Daring to bully my daughter! Does he think Liu Jing is someone to be trifled with!?"
But before she could finish her words.
The news from Wall Street came through.
