On the phone interface, a string of stock codes were all red. It seemed that his earnings were obviously huge.
Wang Lian could not help but exclaim in surprise at this. She quickly showed him her phone. “Wait, the stocks you bought are so good. But look at mine. Why did my stock prices fall when the market is so good?”
Zhan Cheng only took a glance before sneering. “Are you serious? You only invested in junk stocks and sunset industries. The prices won’t go up. Let me tell you, you need to buy these stocks instead…”
He said a few codes in a row. After Wang Lian searched for them in the application, she added them one by one and quickly invested in them.
Fu Qing was seated between Wang Lian and Li Ying, feeling awkward and out of place because she didn’t know anything about this. Seeing that Zhan Cheng was going to talk to Wang Lian over herself, she quickly moved her chair back to make room for them.
Observing his wife’s discomfort, Zhan Qi thoughtfully picked some vegetables and placed them in Fu Qing’s bowl. This didn’t escape Zhang Xue’s eyes, and she suddenly spoke up. “Qing, do you want to dabble in the stock market? You can always ask Li Ying to teach you.”
Li Ying quickly added, “Yes, it’s too difficult to do business nowadays. Investing is so much easier than doing business. But if you’re scared that you won’t make money, you can buy less. Even if you lose money, you can treat it as an experience. How about it?”
Unsure of what to do, Fu Qing turned to look at her husband.
Zhan Qi smiled gently at her and said, “If you’re curious, you can always buy a few to try.”
Li Ying clapped her hands in delight and teased, “Look at how much Zhan Qi dotes on Fu Qing!”
She smirked to herself with pride.
‘Very good, the fish has taken the bait.’
After lunch, Li Ying took her to a securities company to open an account for her. Afterward, she told Fu Qing to wait for a week because the new account could only be freely traded then.
“Add my number to your contact list. In the meantime, I’ll ask Cheng to help you pick a few good stocks. I promise that you’ll be able to get double the amount you invested. So, how much do you plan to invest?”
How much? Just then, Fu Qing remembered the 5,000 yuan she received at the police station. Since she had no use for it, she could use it just to experience stock trading.
“Oh. I have 5,000 yuan on me. Let’s use it as capital.”
Li Ying almost burst out laughing when she heard this. She struggled to maintain a neutral expression as she coughed awkwardly.
As expected of a poor country bumpkin! Only 5,000 yuan as the capital to stock trading? If word got out about this, she would surely lose face!
Once they returned, Li Ying discreetly pulled Zhan Cheng to the side. They spoke in hushed whispers and laughed softly amongst themselves.
As Li Ying spoke, Zhan Cheng had a disdainful look on his face.
“Five thousand then. I’ll think of a way to set a trap. Let her earn some money so that we can coax her to invest more money.” Zhan Cheng whispered. “This village girl has no money, so she’ll definitely have to use Zhan Qi’s money. Once that’s done, we’ll tell dad that Zhan Qi embezzled the company’s funds to buy stocks. He’ll be screwed then!”
A week later, Zhan Cheng sent a few stock codes as promised.
Since most of the codes were the same as Wang Lian’s, Fu Qing didn’t think too much about it. She chose the cheapest stock and invested all five thousand Yuan into it.

The next day, Fu Qing found out that the stock price had risen exponentially. Happily, she sold all the stocks and told Zhan Qi the news.
Zhan Qi himself didn’t trade stocks, so he wasn’t familiar with the terms. And he had no interest in it, either. However, he already had a feeling that Zhan Cheng was up to no good.
He said gently, “Alright, that’s enough stock trading. You should stop now. You have to be careful because the stock market is extremely volatile.”
Fu Qing stuck out her tongue. “Got it.”
However, she couldn’t help but feel uneasy. Li Ying had just sent over a few more stocks, claiming that they were about to soar. However, these stocks were worth tens of thousands each, so Fu Qing had to invest more money into them..
