Chapter 39: Sun Tianqi’s Request

Ye Hao was looking at the documents handed over by his assistant when he heard someone calling him and looked up.

Ye Hao didn’t know Shen Yueshu, but he saw a familiar figure in the crowd and couldn’t help but smile faintly for some reason.

“Yoho…”

“Hello, President Ye!”

The students all greeted Ye Hao, who waved back at them.

“So many people, why not take the elevator?” Ye Hao said with a smile to the group.

Shen Yueshu slightly bowed and smiled, saying, “President Ye, they are students from the Finance University here for observation and study. We don’t want to take up your work time, so please go ahead first.”

Ye Hao heard this and couldn’t help but glance at Xu Yuan, who was looking around nervously, as if signaling to him: we have nothing to do with each other, we don’t know each other.

“This guy wants to keep a low profile? What era is this, still playing the act of a wolf in sheep’s clothing,” Ye Hao thought to himself with a secret smile.

“Dad! Hurry, hurry, let’s go quickly. Xu Yuan might already be upstairs. I must teach him a lesson today.”

At that moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came from afar, accompanied by Ye Sisi’s sharp and excited voice.

Hearing the voice before seeing the person!
Ye Sisi knew Xu Yuan was coming to Longhua Capital for observation and learning, so she had prepared early to give Xu Yuan a stern warning.

Xu Yuan was startled by Ye Sisi’s voice and shivered. What does this girl mean? Is she trying to mess with me?!

Ye Hao looked at Ye Sisi, who ran over excitedly and hugged his arm, feeling quite helpless.

Is it really necessary to be this excited? Xu Yuan was right here listening.

“Why did I just hear Yuan’er’s name? Why does this girl look so familiar?” Li Rui and Zhang Long unconsciously turned their gaze toward Xu Yuan.

“I heard it too, it should be the same name. However, this General Manager Ye’s daughter is quite pretty, but her personality is really fierce,” several other classmates also said.

“Let’s go, what are you daydreaming about?” Ye Sisi didn’t notice Xu Yuan and dragged Ye Hao into the elevator.

Ye Hao was also very helpless, giving Xu Yuan a look in the elevator: It’s got nothing to do with me.

Xu Yuan had a forehead full of dark lines, what exactly does this Ye Sisi want to do?

  ……

“This is way too big?!”

Looking at the floor in front of him, as big as a small playground, densely packed with desks and computers.

The phone rings kept ringing one after another, and everywhere were busy figures of stock managers.

“This time, the company has prepared individual computers for the students, so everyone can enter the virtual stock market to operate and experience a day in the life of a stock manager.

Everyone, don’t feel any psychological burden; the gains or losses in the virtual data will not affect the company. If any juniors have questions, I will be here to guide you. The final data will affect the grading of your reports.

Shen Yueshu briefly introduced the main content of this visit and study to everyone.

“Can we still operate it ourselves? I’m a bit excited!”

Everyone was eager to get started. The theoretical classes they usually attended were dull and boring, nothing compared to the thrill of hands-on operation.

The school did offer virtual operation courses, but they couldn’t compare to the frontline atmosphere at Longhua Capital.

After leading everyone to the designated area, each was assigned a computer. Looking at the complex stock charts on the screens, it was truly overwhelming.

The account login password is the student’s student ID number plus the last six digits of their ID card. Xu Yuan also logged into his own account.

“Junior, do you want senior to personally guide you? It’s free!” Shen Yueshu leaned down, her hair falling and brushing against Xu Yuan’s ear as she spoke.

“Don’t do that, do you want the boys in our class to kill me with their eyes?” Xu Yuan had already noticed many piercing gazes like sharp swords aimed at him.

Among them, Zheng Jian’s was the most sinister!
Shen Yueshu smiled brightly; she just wanted to see Xu Yuan helpless and at a loss with her.

  ……

On the other side, in Ye Hao’s office.

“Stay put in the office and don’t go anywhere!” Ye Hao directly locked his office door; he was afraid Ye Sisi would mess things up.

“Dad! What are you doing? It’s not often we get a chance to dampen Xu Yuan’s sharpness.”

This guy is so hateful, not only does he casually show off his relationship, but last time he even teamed up with Xinran to mock me for being slow.” Ye Sisi stomped her foot angrily. Since she was a child, when had she ever suffered a loss?

But she kept getting lectured by Xu Yuan one after another.

Ye Hao really had no way to deal with this stubborn little ancestor.

“Xu Yuan was just at the elevator entrance a moment ago; he heard everything you said clearly,” Ye Hao said helplessly about Ye Sisi’s reckless nature.

Even if you really want to mess with someone, you can’t do it so openly, right?

“Ah?” Ye Sisi was a bit confused; he hadn’t even noticed that Xu Yuan was among the people at the elevator entrance just now.

“Sisi, do you remember how you promised me? To finish college properly and stop always trying to go against Xu Yuan.

Your little schemes like a stray cat—do they really hurt him in any substantial way? In his eyes, it’s just your childish temper. He simply doesn’t want to bother with you,” Ye Hao earnestly advised.

Ye Sisi also quieted down. Although she was stubborn, it didn’t mean she wouldn’t think.

“Dad, you’re not cooperating with Xu Yuan, are you? Or does he have some kind of leverage over you?” Ye Sisi squinted at Ye Hao.

In her impression, Xu Yuan and Ye Hao had only met once, so why did it feel like they were very familiar now?
“Not cooperating yet, but there are indeed some things I need to discuss with him. Alright, Sisi, I’ll have the driver take you back to school.” Ye Hao said as he was about to see Ye Sisi off.

“I won’t!”

  ……   
Xu Yuan looked at the complex trend chart, nodding off. He was in sharp contrast to the classmates beside him who were intensely making micro-operations.

Mainly because this wasn’t real money, Xu Yuan simply couldn’t get interested.

Just then, Xu Yuan’s phone suddenly rang, waking him up from almost falling asleep.

Looking at this unfamiliar number, Xu Yuan was also a bit puzzled, but he still stood up, found a quiet corner, and answered the phone.

“Hello?”

  ……

“Brother Jian, awesome! Among all of us classmates, it seems like you’re the only one making a profit, right? I’m almost losing money to the point of coughing up blood,” Xu Rang said enviously, praising Zheng Jian.

The boy on the other end also said, “Exactly, having such ability in just the first year of college, it looks like Brother Jian is very likely to get into Longhua in the future.”

Zheng Jian naturally enjoyed the praise from those around him. Just having a good uncle at Longhua Capital was enough for him to secure a position here, even if he was a useless person.

Li Rui, listening from the side, couldn’t help but sneer and said:
“What praise? The companies you invested in were all operated by Yuan’er. You only made a bit of petty profit; Yuan’er is the real big player.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at Xu Yuan’s computer. The vibrant colors streaking across the screen contrasted sharply with the glowing green market here, as if they were two completely different operating systems.

“Xu Yuan is so amazing, I didn’t even see how he operated. Where is he? I want to ask him why no matter how I operate, I keep losing more and more,” several girls who suffered heavy losses said admiringly.

In the stock market, strength speaks for itself. Those who were just praising Zheng Jian now fell silent.

Zheng Jian’s hand holding the mouse was trembling; once again, Xu Yuan had outperformed him!

The most infuriating thing was that this guy didn’t seem to take it seriously at all, and now no one even knew where he was.

  ……

“President Sun, did you need to see me?”

Xu Yuan did not expect Sun Tianqi to contact him.

On the other end of the phone came Sun Tianqi’s slightly apologetic voice: “President Xu, I have already discussed the specific compensation details thoroughly with President Zhang.

The reshoot of the first episode and the delay in the variety show schedule were our mistakes.

I just want to ask, does President Xu still want to continue serving as a judge?

“President Sun, please speak directly.” Xu Yuan didn’t want to beat around the bush either; for such a small matter, there was no need for Sun Tianqi to contact him personally.

“Hehe, President Xu is straightforward as always.”

President Xu and President Ye are quite familiar, right? I wonder if it’s convenient for President Xu to pass along a message for me—I’d like to invite both President Xu and President Ye to have a meal together.

Then I apologized.

Sun Tianqi’s attitude was a bit too good; Xu Yuan didn’t know what the other party was thinking, but it seemed to be related to Ye Hao.

Did Ye Hao block Sun Tianqi? That can’t be right, can it? After all, Ye Sisi only suffered a minor injury last time, which shouldn’t have caused Ye Hao to lose his composure.

Xu Yuan paused for a moment, then replied, “I’ll give it a try.”

Directly refusing is not very good after all; I only said I would try, not that I could definitely get it done.

“Then thank you, President Xu. This is my personal number. Please save it, President Xu. I’ll treat you to a meal when you have time.”

“Okay.”

  ……

“Hey, hey, I really didn’t mean it,” Zheng Jian said with a sly wave of his hand.

Li Rui angrily grabbed his collar and was about to make a move.

The noisy commotion quickly drew everyone’s attention.

Shen Yueshu also hurried over, frowning as she asked, “What’s going on?”

“Senior, this guy unplugged Yuan’er’s computer cable!”

“Can’t stand losing!” Li Rui angrily scolded Zheng Jian.

“If you can’t win, just pull the network cable! That’s just too low!” The place where they were operating was a virtual stock market, and once Longhua’s computer was shut down, it would automatically reset.

In other words, Xu Yuan’s original data would be erased.

“I already said I didn’t do it on purpose, I just tripped over the cable while passing by!” Zheng Jian, of course, wouldn’t admit it and stubbornly said.

Shen Yueshu frowned; Zheng Jian’s excuse was too casual. The cables are all under the seat, who would deliberately stretch their foot in while walking?

Zheng Jian, who was being grabbed by the collar, was not panicking at all at this moment. There were so many people here; he didn’t believe Li Rui would really dare to hit him.

Besides, his uncle was a senior supervisor in the marketing department, and he would probably arrive quickly once he heard the commotion.

“This young man, calm down. You can’t fight in the company,” a slightly overweight middle-aged man hurried over from a distance, his excess flesh jiggling as he moved.

He was Zheng Jian’s uncle, Zheng Youqian from the marketing department.

“Uncle, I accidentally tripped over my classmate’s computer cable. I really didn’t mean to.”

Zheng Jian looked at Zheng Youqian coming over, instantly gaining confidence, putting on a wronged expression, which made Li Rui more and more annoyed.

Four updates tomorrow, a little teaser.
