Chapter 95: Chapter 94: After Eighteen, Boys Need to Take Care of Themselves

Jiang Banxia was in the living room, looking at the market trends on her tablet.

After Dou Ying finished packing her luggage for tomorrow’s outing, she came over to sit, not daring to get too close.

After Jiang Banxia finished watching, she went straight to Dou Ying and asked, “Mom, I want to open a securities account.”

Dou Ying didn’t even think, since anything prefixed with ’mom’ is something you have to do, even if you can’t.

“No problem at all, it’s good to get some early exposure. Although the domestic stock market isn’t large compared to the entire financial system, it’s still the core blood of the entire financial system.”

Jiang Banxia said with a smile, “Then what do you think of Green Water Group?”

“Hmm? Green Water Group?”

Jiang Banxia pulled up the interface of Green Water Group and said, “Take a look for me.”

Dou Ying looked for a while and said, “It’s good, there’s potential.”

“Mom, you have to tell me the truth, I don’t want to lose money on my first trade.”

Dou Ying: “…”

She didn’t want to contradict Jiang Banxia, even if Jiang Banxia lost money she’d accept it.

Anyway, these past few days, Jiang Banxia has been acting very proactive, seeming willing to open up and communicate with them, something that never happened before.

Yesterday Jiang Yaoting specifically went to the neighborhood to check the surveillance, and then saw Li Yang and Jiang Banxia in the corner of the community.

They couldn’t hear the sound, but they could see Jiang Banxia’s emotions were very intense, she was crying heavily.

But not long after, Jiang Banxia returned to normal.

They didn’t know what Li Yang said that could so easily calm down the emotionally agitated Jiang Banxia, and since then, Jiang Banxia seemed like a different person.

Since Jiang Banxia wanted to hear the truth at this moment, she said it.

“Green Water Group has fundamental issues; it’s not a good stock. But recently there’s been active funds inside, doing short-term trading definitely won’t be a problem. Also, recently national financing data has been climbing, the market index has risen from 2400 points to 2800 points, trading volume is steadily increasing, as long as there aren’t any major changes, the aggressive funds will become the trend.”

Dou Ying also doesn’t look at any concept themes or leader strategies, she doesn’t personally trade stocks, she just understands the overall trend.

Jiang Banxia asked, “What’s the issue?”

Dou Ying: “…”

She didn’t know before, but in recent years, she’s acquired a lot of understanding about Green Water Group; this company is impossible to be profitable.

“How to say, it’s a bit complex, the internal conflicts in Green Water Group are very intense, the heir of the original chairman lacks the ability to control the situation…”

…

Li Yang was pulled into the group chat by Xiangnu.

After joining the group, he greeted everyone reservedly.

“Hello everyone.”

…

“A man?”

“Oh, I said I would definitely meet a man in this life, waited so many years, finally I’ve waited him out.”

“Little brother, size? Send a photo for big sis to measure…”

“Measure for big sis first, then big sis will show you her legs.”

“Big sis will show you her chest.”

Li Yang: “…”

Feels a bit off, isn’t this a group of wealthy women?

Including him, there are only eight people, excluding Xiangnu, just six.

What are they playing at here?

Fortunately, Xiangnu spoke up, saying, “Everyone, calm down a bit, this is an expert I’ve invited for stock trading.”

“Stock trading? Oh, I’ll definitely cooperate well.”

“What, starting off this intense? By saying that, hey, where are my clothes?”

“?????”

This was sent by Li Yang.

Entered a den of foxes?

Otherwise why does it smell so strong?

Xiangnu got angry: “Everyone quiet down! Aren’t you ashamed? Never seen a man before? Someone has the audacity to flirt with a 92-year-old geezer?”

“What? 92 years old? That certainly makes the tongue coating thick, quickly, come find big sis…”

Li Likun left the group chat…

Xiangnu glanced at it, helplessly saying, “What are you guys doing? Can’t you speak properly?”

“Xiangnu, where did you find such an exceptional person? Run away after a few jokes?”

Xiangnu: “He’s a decent person, do you really think he’s like you people? I’ll pull him back into the group, everyone behave…”

Soon, Li Yang was back in the group.

“Hello, ladies, my name is Li Likun, but you can call me Da Kun.”

…

Finally, it’s July 8th.

Today is Li Yang’s birthday, waking up early in the morning, he received a message from Jiang Banxia wishing him well and saying she has gone on a trip and will bring him back a souvenir.

Of course, just after opening the bedroom door, he received greetings from his parents waiting outside.

Xue Ning’s wish was more discreet; while washing up when the family wasn’t around, she lifted her t-shirt slightly, then quickly put it down, and ran away with a giggle.

Just like the first time Li Yang saw a Li Lizhen movie, even though he was experienced, he was bewildered for quite a while.

Everyone has had that experience, from not being picky at first, to choosing the storyline, and eventually selecting the lead actress and the setting.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he came to the living room to have breakfast, and then the three of them headed out, leaving Li Yang at home.

This birthday, everyone took it very seriously, Wang Cuiping planned to make a huge spread of delicious food today.

Li Yang had things to do at home; after all, there were seven rich women waiting for him.

As soon as he opened WeChat, he discovered a message from Wang Manqi.

“Li Yang, happy birthday! Do you want to come out to celebrate your birthday together?”

Li Yang saw it and pretended not to.

Celebrate what? Celebrating with parents is more meaningful than anything else.

He was too lazy to respond. Not even a red envelope for the birthday wishes?

In his past life, when he sent her birthday wishes, she wouldn’t even accept a red envelope. After all, the maximum amount for a red envelope is only two hundred, and it has to be a bank transfer.

The rich women in the group had already woken up. Over the past few days, Li Yang had figured out their identities.

Some owned shops, some were married with children, some were just loafing around, some were university students, and of course, some had proper jobs.

Li Yang had already added their WeChat, but they didn’t chat much, mostly just talked in the group.

There were all sorts of topics in the group, and he even snagged a few photos to look at, though none showed faces; who knows if they were just web pictures.

Judging by those photos, they did have nice figures.

“Da Kun, it’s my sister’s birthday today, do you have any gifts for me?”

Li Yang: “… What a coincidence? Today just happens to be my birthday too.”

“Send me your ID card photo!”

“Send the photo of your ID card!”

The next moment, the other party really sent it over.

“Song Yu.”

Li Yang knew she opened a shop in Capital City, but wasn’t sure about the business. Anyway, she kept saying in the group that her business was going under, and if it continues like this, she’d turn the shop into a nightclub!

Li Yang sent over the part of his ID number photo, but he censored the crucial parts; Song Yu’s was also censored.

Like the year shown on the ID number.

“Isn’t this a bit much? At least I didn’t censor my name.”

Li Yang said: “Is a name important? A name is just a code. I could say I’m Emperor Qin Shi Huang.”

“Then you and Xiangnu are a match made in heaven. She’s always saying names are just codes, and when out, you shouldn’t make a sound when asked.”

“…”

Although Li Yang’s sincerity wasn’t great, he quickly received blessings from the rich women.

Almost everyone sent him ten thousand yuan.

Li Yang returned Song Yu’s ten thousand yuan, saying: “Girl, I don’t have anything good to give you, and you wouldn’t fancy my stuff. Let this ten thousand be a small token of mine.”

Song Yu: “???”

So, I give you money, and you don’t take it, instead I owe you a favor?

No wonder you dabble in stock trading; how can a decent person make money in the stock market?

The next moment, Song Yu sent it again, saying: “Don’t want your money, just tell me your age.”

Li Yang gladly accepted the money, saying: “Turning eighteen this year, handsome and dashing.”

“Eh, Xiangnu actually guessed it right?”

“Thank you, sister, for the treat, mwa mwa…”

Next moment, Li Yang saved those transfer screenshots and posted them on his Moments with a caption.

“Thanks to the sisters for the birthday gifts, love you!”

Lastly, only Wang Manqi could see.

Then he began arranging his upcoming schedule.

Bai Qing had feedback a couple of days ago, but upon learning Li Yang was a few days shy of turning eighteen, she postponed the trip to Yangcheng a bit.

Because being under eighteen means contract signings require parental agreement, and Li Yang still has to attend university, can’t sign a labor contract.

Numerous contract details needed adjustments because of these reasons.

So probably heading out the day after tomorrow.

Meanwhile, his bank card received 88,888 yuan—a birthday gift from Bai Qing.

Once the contract is finalized in a couple of days, along with last month’s manuscript fee, he’ll instantly have over five million in funds.

Soon, Wang Manqi sent over a red envelope while he was calling Bai Qing “dear.”

Seeing it was a red envelope marked as a birthday gift, he said: “Thank you, thank you, I appreciate your kindness.”

Wang Manqi said: “Are you thinking it’s too little?”

“No, no, how could that be, we’re all students, don’t need this stuff…”

The next moment, Wang Manqi transferred 519 over.

She wanted to round it to 520, but her card ran out of money.

Li Yang immediately returned it, responding: “Really don’t need it; I need to go out to buy something, chat later.”

After saying this, Li Yang stopped replying, chatted briefly with Bai Qing, and then went downstairs to leave the community.

He went to a convenience store a bit farther away; if it was too close, he’d soon become familiar. His parents had only lived here for a few days, and already knew the surrounding areas inside and out.

Even quite a few people in the community knew he’s this year’s top scorer in the college entrance exam…

Emm…

At a convenience store about three hundred meters away from the community, he bought some stuff without even looking, and directly stuffed it into his pocket.

As he turned around, he bumped into Xue Ning returning home.

“Hey, what did you just buy? Sneaky…”

Li Yang said: “Turning eighteen, boys should take care of themselves outside, what’s wrong with me buying some protective equipment for myself?”

“What protective equipment?”
