Volume 1: The Golden Years Chapter 037 I'm Sorry I Love You
Seeing Yuan Xudong leaving with his face covered, Jiang Nansun had a complicated expression. She was angry that he had taken her first kiss, but she was also quite impressed that he took the slap from her without dodging. She had slapped him with all her might, and her face must have hurt.
Thinking of this, she secretly felt sorry for Zhang Anren. She did not give her first kiss to her boyfriend, but instead gave it to the shameless Yuan Xudong.
Seeing Yuan Xudong get into the BMW and start to leave, Jiang Nansun tidied herself up and walked towards her own garden house. She wanted to have a good talk with her father Jiang Pengfei to find out whether he had borrowed money to invest in stocks as Yuan Xudong said, and had actually squandered all the Jiang family's property.
Entering the living room, Jiang Nansun saw her father and boyfriend looking at her. She said calmly:
"Zhang Anren, go back first. I want to talk to my dad about something!"
Seeing that Jiang Nansun looked unhappy, Zhang Anren said with a little worry:
"Nansun, you..."
Without waiting for Zhang Anren to finish, Jiang Nansun, anxious in her heart, interrupted directly:
"Zhang Anren, go back first. I want to talk to my dad alone. I'll tell you after I figure it out. Please!"
Seeing Jiang Nansun asking him for help so seriously, Zhang Anren felt that Yuan Xudong must have told Jiang Nansun something important, and it was related to Jiang Nansun's father Jiang Pengfei, so it would be bad for him to get involved.
Thinking of this, he looked at Jiang Nansun, who had an expressionless face, and Jiang Pengfei, who had a puzzled look on his face, and said goodbye:
"Uncle, Nansun, I'm going back first. See you next time!"
After saying that, seeing Jiang Nansun and Jiang Pengfei nod slightly, Zhang Anren left the Jiang family full of curiosity and drove his borrowed white Santana to the Magic City Architecture College.
He had to return the car to the owner before 10 p.m. and also had to fill up the gas at the gas station. It was already 9:15 p.m., so the time should be about the same.
Seeing Zhang Anren leaving the room, Jiang Nansun looked directly at Jiang Pengfei who was full of doubts and asked repeatedly:
"Dad, did you borrow money from others to invest in stocks? How much did you borrow in total? Do we still have money?"
Jiang Pengfei didn't expect his daughter Jiang Nansun to ask him such a question. He panicked and thought that the thing he had concealed for three years had been exposed. He looked upstairs and found that there was no movement. Then he ran to Jiang Nansun and pleaded in a low voice:
"Auntie, please keep your voice down. Grandma is old, don't let her hear it!"
After that, he looked at Jiang Nansun, who was in disbelief, and asked:
"Nansun, who told you all this, the old man next door, or Aunt Liu who lives across the street?"
Seeing that her father confessed, Jiang Nansun said anxiously:
"Yuan Xudong told me. He said that your stock account is fully invested, and you borrowed money to buy stocks with leverage. This is just like a gambler who is desperate to lose everything. Tell me the truth, how much money have you borrowed? Is our family bankrupt?"
Knowing that it was Yuan Xudong's daughter Jiang Nansun who told him, Jiang Pengfei secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it wasn't his creditor who came to him. It was all his fault for being careless and forgetting to give Yuan Xudong the relevant permissions that allowed him to see his transaction records.
Thinking of this, he secretly decided to block Yuan Xudong tomorrow and prevent him from seeing his stock account information.
Seeing Jiang Pengfei's stunned expression, Jiang Nansun felt that the situation was getting more serious, and hurriedly urged:
"Dad, hurry up and tell me what's going on. Let's discuss and solve it as a family. Sell all your stocks and pay back the money. At worst, we can just live frugally in the future!"
Jiang Pengfei became anxious when he heard Jiang Nansun say she wanted to sell her stocks. He was still hoping to use this leveraged bull market to make up for all his previous losses. If he sold them now, after paying off the debt and interest, he would only have a few hundred thousand yuan left at most. What's the difference between this and being a pauper?
Thinking of this, he quickly looked at his daughter Jiang Nansun and laughed:
"Don't worry, I only borrowed two million. It was Old Wang next door and Aunt Liu across the street who lent it to me. I will pay it back tomorrow!"
Seeing Jiang Nansun looking at him with disbelief, he hesitated for a moment and took out a passbook from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Nansun, saying:
"This is grandma's passbook. There's more than two million in it. If you don't believe me, I'll take you with me to pay back the money tomorrow. Is that okay?"
Taking the passbook from her father, she opened it and saw that there was still 2.42 million in deposits. She returned the passbook to her father Jiang Pengfei and said with a complicated expression:
"No, I believe you will pay me back. For so many years, you have been staying at home every day to speculate in stocks. Grandma's house, antique vases, and the gold bars that grandpa left for grandma, all of these have been lost in your stock speculation.
Now I have given you the last 2.4 million yuan of my coffin money. Grandma really loves you very much. I hope you can leave the stock market completely and sell your stocks. The remaining money will be enough for our family to live on. I don’t expect you to work and earn money. Just stay with grandma. Can you do it?"
Thinking back on the past few years, he realized that his life had indeed been a bit ridiculous. The family assets were enough for him to live off the savings and expenses. If he invested in some properties and shops, the rent collected every year would be enough for his family to be wealthy for generations to come.
Unfortunately, he was greedy and threw himself into the stock market with great enthusiasm, which eventually led to the current situation. Unable to accept the fate of his family being left with only a few hundred thousand in cash and the house they were living in, Jiang Pengfei looked at Jiang Nansun and pleaded:
"After this bull market, I will listen to you and completely leave the stock market. I will stay with my grandma, take care of her until the end of her life, and then marry you off in style.
Before that, you have to keep it a secret for me. You can't tell your mother and grandmother that I borrowed two million. I don't want to see their disappointed expressions.
Especially grandma, she is old and has been strong all her life. If she knew that I was borrowing money from others, she would definitely not be able to bear it. You must promise me, okay?"
Seeing her father Jiang Pengfei's sincere words, Jiang Nansun felt that he must be sincere , but she couldn't help but ask one more question:
"Did you really only borrow two million?"
Hearing this, Jiang Pengfei immediately assured:
"Really? I only borrowed two million. I still have tens of millions of principal in my account. All of it was given to me by my grandma. Don't worry. Our family is bigger than a horse. We will have no problem living a life of luxury!"
Jiang Nansun nodded slightly, and then said worriedly:
"Yuan Xudong said that the stock market is likely to fall sharply. You should sell your stocks now. As long as our family is happy, tens of millions are enough!"
Hearing that his daughter Jiang Nansun wanted to sell her own stocks again, Jiang Pengfei, who had already lost all his capital, immediately shook his head and refused:
"No, that won't work. I'm going to buy you a large, fully-decorated apartment in Dongli Community as your wedding house, and a BMW 7 Series as a dowry. My daughter, Jiang Pengfei, can't live worse than other families.
Don't worry, Xiao Yuan is not the stock god Buffett, and what he says may not be accurate. If you don't trade stocks, you don't know the actual situation. The current market is too hot, so you have to go with the trend when trading stocks. Short selling against the trend is a dead end.
Xiao Yuan's family is rich and powerful, so he can ignore it, but I can't. Besides, even if the stock market falls, it's okay. I have set up a warning line. If it really falls, I will pay attention to closing my positions!"
After listening to her father Jiang Pengfei's explanation, Jiang Nansun felt relieved. She stared at Jiang Pengfei and finally said:
"I will keep it a secret for you, but you have to remember what you said. This is the last time. From now on, just stay with grandma and don't speculate in stocks anymore. Got it?"
Jiang Pengfei nodded slightly, touched the property certificate hidden on his chest through his clothes, and said with a smile on his face:
"Got it. I promise this is the last time. Don't worry!"
"I hope so. I'm going to bed!"
Taking a last look at her smiling father Jiang Pengfei, Jiang Nansun let go of the heavy stone that was weighing on her heart. As she walked towards her own bedroom on the second floor, she was furious that Yuan Xudong had deliberately threatened her and taken advantage of her to take away her first kiss that she had kept for more than twenty years.
Thinking of this, she reached out and touched the red lips that had been kissed by Yuan Xudong, her face flushed with shame. It was a feeling she had never experienced before, like an electric shock.
Thinking about the fact that she was about to marry Zhang Anren but gave her first kiss to Yuan Xudong, she felt guilty towards her boyfriend Zhang Anren.
She quickly thought in her mind that Yuan Xudong was just like the Husky she raised as a child, and she treated it as if her pet dog had licked her lips. Thinking of this, she replaced Yuan Xudong's head with that of a Husky in her mind. Jiang Nansun couldn't help laughing out loud, and even her mood improved.
Hearing his daughter's laughter, Jiang Pengfei smiled. For himself, for his family, and for his daughter Jiang Nansun's future happy life, he must take advantage of Jingyan Group and make up for his previous losses.
Thinking of this, he took out the property certificate from his arms. This was the last property in his family and also the house where he had lived for decades since he was a child. If he was going to gamble, he would gamble big. When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the braver one wins.
He believed that he would definitely make a fortune this time, and then pay back all the tens of millions he borrowed, and he would still have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of funds left. He could live a peaceful life in the future and completely leave the stock market.
…
Inside a dark-black BMW on Fuxing Road in Shanghai.
The sound of a fruit machine rang, and Zhu Suosuo woke up from her deep sleep. She was surprised to find that she had left the Jiang family and was sitting in a BMW driving on Fuxing Road. She took out her fruit machine and the caller ID showed that it was her aunt. She didn't bother to ask Yuan Xudong about Jiang Nansun. She quickly answered the phone and said:
"Aunt!"
"Okay, I know everything!"
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"
"Okay, see you later!"
Seeing Zhu Suosuo hang up the phone, Yuan Xudong drove towards the Park Hyatt Hotel and asked casually:
"What's wrong, do you need to go to your aunt's house?"
"Yes, please find a place to turn around and take me back. My aunt said Jiaming didn't eat all day and locked himself in his bedroom and refused to come out. She asked me to go back and persuade him!"
Having said this, she looked at Yuan Xudong and said embarrassedly:
"Xudong, I'm sorry, I can't go to the Park Hyatt Hotel tonight. I need to go home and sleep so as not to stimulate Jiaming!"
"fine!"
Yuan Xudong shook his head slightly, looking for a place to turn around and drive towards the old alley street, while caring about Zhu Suosuo and saying:
"Let me go back with you, in case you can't handle Jiaming by yourself!"
"No!"
Zhu Suosuo quickly shook her head and refused. She was worried that Jiaming would be even more sad when she saw Yuan Xudong, so she said:
"Just take me to the entrance of the old alley, and I can go back by myself!"
Yuan Xudong naturally understood Zhu Suosuo's concerns. He smiled and said:
"It's okay. I'll go back with you. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. I'll explain it to Jiaming. You don't have to say anything. After all, their family has raised you for more than 20 years. I'll be the bad guy!"
Zhu Suosuo was deeply moved to see that Yuan Xudong cared so much about her. From childhood to adulthood, Yuan Xudong was the first man who cared and loved her like this. Her father only sent money back every month, and they only saw each other a few times a year.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Yuan Xudong and smiled:
"Xudong, thank you, you are so nice to me!"
After that, she took another close look at Yuan Xudong's face and said with concern:
"What's wrong with your face? It looks a little swollen. Shall we go to the hospital?"
After touching his slightly swollen handsome face, Yuan Xudong said with a twitch of the corner of his mouth:
"It's okay, your matter is more important, I'll go back to the hotel and apply some ice to it and it will be fine!"
After that, without waiting for Zhu Suosuo to continue asking questions, Yuan Xudong quickly changed the subject:
"Suosuo, I've thought about it. You live in an old alley. Not only is the surrounding environment not good, but Luo Jiaming is trying to commit suicide like he is now. Your uncle and aunt are likely to have a bad impression of you. You will inevitably feel like a dependent.
Plus, you're going to work at Jingyan Group, and the commute is inconvenient. If you don't mind, here's what I'm thinking: You rent a house you like near the Jingyan Group headquarters building, move from your aunt's house, and I move from the Park Hyatt Hotel. We can live together like this, what do you think?"
Not hearing the expected voice of agreement, Yuan Xudong turned around and saw Zhu Suosuo staring at him with red eyes, crying loudly and wiping her tears with both hands.
It was the first time that Yuan Xudong saw the always generous Zhu Suosuo showing such a weak and vulnerable side. He was startled and felt his heart soften. He couldn't help but comfort her:
"Did I say something wrong? You know I'm a careless person and don't know the ways of the world. If I said something that hurt you, I apologize. Please stop crying, okay?"
"It's not...it's not your fault, it's...it's my own problem!"
Zhu Suosuo choked up and wiped away her tears, then smiled and leaned on Yuan Xudong's shoulder with a happy face and said:
"Xudong, will you always love me like this in the future?"
Seeing Zhu Suosuo showing such a little girl's attitude, Yuan Xudong stroked her hair and said lovingly:
“What if I’m a big liar?”
Zhu Suosuo rubbed Yuan Xudong's shoulder, hugged his arm and said coquettishly:
"Then you can lie to me for the rest of your life like this, okay?"
"Okay, I'll lie to you forever!"
"Then say it, Suosuo, I love you, let me hear it!"
"My face hurts. I don't want to talk right now. I just want to be quiet!"
"Hate it, if you don't say it, I'll say it myself, Yuan Xudong, I love you!"
Ding~~

A cell phone rang, and seeing that Yuan Xudong didn't move, Zhu Suosuo raised her head and looked at him and said:
"Your phone is ringing, do you want me to check it for you?"
"No!"
Yuan Xudong shook his head slightly, kissed her forehead and said lovingly:
"It must be the bank transfer information. Don't worry about it. In my eyes, there is a lot of money but only one lock. You are much more important than it!"
"You are really good at talking. You must have said this to many girls!"
"No, I only told you!"
"You must be lying to me!"
"Congratulations, you got it!"
"Hate!"
