The reason Zhou Qiaoqiao suspected Xu Mo knew some inside information was mainly because when Xu Mo said those words, he gave her the impression of being extremely certain about it.
So with a little thought, she knew Xu Mo must have some inside information, and it must be very precise, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken so confidently.
Of course I have information, the system told me, it's 100% accurate, but I obviously can't say that, Xu Mo shrugged: "What information? I just figured it out on my own."
"Anyway, you'd better sell off all the stocks you're holding quickly. I don't want to see you become homeless," Xu Mo added: "I'm still counting on you to cook for me every day."
Although Xu Mo said it like that.
Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't believe him one bit.
No information? How could that be possible!
How could he speak so confidently without information? It was obvious that couldn't be the case.
Moreover, the more Xu Mo denied it, the more she felt that Xu Mo must have some channel for hearing information, and furthermore, the source of the information must be very reliable!
Where did Xu Mo hear this information from?
It's worth noting that this kind of highly accurate information generally doesn't leak out.
This is the kind of thing only those who have a thorough grasp of the stock market, or even the ability to manipulate it, would know. These are industry bigwigs! Financial tycoons!
Xu Mo actually knows such bigwigs?
Suddenly, Zhou Qiaoqiao's gaze towards Xu Mo changed...
She then followed Xu Mo's advice: "I'll listen to you and sell them. But I can't trade now, so I'll sell everything as soon as the market opens tomorrow to cut my losses."
Hearing Zhou Qiaoqiao say this, An Youyi chimed in: "Then I'll sell too. I won't keep any, I'll sell it all."
Yang Jingxuan and Li Jiaxin didn't even need to be asked. The two of them got into stocks because of Zhou Qiaoqiao and An Youyi, and were just amateurs who didn't really understand anything.
Now that Zhou Qiaoqiao and An Youyi had chosen to sell their stocks, these two amateurs naturally wouldn't continue to be stubborn, and immediately prepared to sell their stocks as well.
"Oh right, there's still soup in the kitchen. I'll go check how it's cooking," Zhou Qiaoqiao suddenly remembered the soup simmering in the kitchen and immediately got up to go to the kitchen.
Yang Jingxuan, An Youyi, and Li Jiaxin weren't idle either. They immediately followed and brought out all the dishes they had prepared just before Xu Mo came back.
Coincidentally, the soup that had been cooking earlier was also ready. Zhou Qiaoqiao, who went in to check, simply turned off the heat and brought out the clay pot as well.
After the last dish of soup was placed on the table, Zhou Qiaoqiao said: "All the dishes are ready, let's start eating!"
...
Halfway through the meal, Yang Jingxuan suddenly stopped her chopsticks: "Oh my God, it seems someone committed suicide by jumping off a building because of stock market losses... Quick, look at the local trending topics!"
Hearing this, everyone picked up their phones and looked at the local trending topics.
Just as Yang Jingxuan said, there was indeed such a trending topic.
The person who posted this trending topic said that the reason for the man's suicide was because of stock trading. He had lost hundreds of thousands in a single day, and in a moment of despair, he simply chose to end it all.
"There really is such a trending topic... I've decided not to trade stocks anymore, it's too dangerous! I'll sell all the remaining stocks I have after the market opens tomorrow, and I'll never play with it again," An Youyi said worriedly after seeing this trending topic. "I can't make much money from it anyway, and I don't want to be controlled by this thing emotionally and do something irrational."
With a real-life example right in front of her, she decided she would never touch stocks again!
Xu Mo: "..."
The part about not making much money was wrong, you should say you can't make any at all, you've lost more than you've gained... Xu Mo thought to himself.
How could others compare to An Youyi?
Others would be so upset about losing hundreds of thousands that they'd jump off a building, but if An Youyi lost hundreds of thousands, she'd be depressed for maybe a minute, then go back to whatever she was doing.
Hundreds of thousands might be a lot of money to others, but to a wealthy person like An Youyi, it wasn't even worth thinking about.
Just now, she was complaining to Xu Mo about losing three hundred thousand in stocks, but in the next moment she was smiling and eating happily...
Jumping off a building? That would never happen to her!
If anyone could handle it, it would be her!
Xu Mo briefly scanned through this trending topic, then put down his phone and spoke.
"With stock trading, it's fine to invest a little bit for fun, but you can't be too greedy, only thinking about making big money without considering the risks."
"That's right!" An Youyi chimed in from the side: "You can't invest too much, at most a million or so is fine to play with. Even if you lose it all, you won't feel too bad about that amount."
Xu Mo: "???"
Zhou Qiaoqiao: "???"
Yang Jingxuan: "???"
Li Jiaxin: "???"
Do you even hear what you're saying?
Not investing too much means investing a million or so? And you won't even feel bad if you lose that much!?
Is a million a small amount?
That's a lot, okay!
But we can't say An Youyi is completely out of touch with reality.
It's mainly because her family background is too good, she's always had very privileged material conditions, and the people she's been in contact with from childhood to adulthood have all been either rich or noble.
So in her view, a million or so really isn't too much.
In fact, she's always believed that no one should have less than a million in their bank account.
After all, in her understanding, even if a person is as poor as can be, they should at least have this much!
How could anyone not even be able to come up with a million or so!
Why are you all looking at me like that? An Youyi asked in confusion: "Why are you all looking at me with those eyes, did I say something wrong..."
Xu Mo nodded, just about to correct An Youyi that a million wasn't a small amount of money, when his phone suddenly rang.
He took it out and saw it was a call from Han Fei.
Calling at this hour, he's not asking me to go back for overtime, is he... Xu Mo suddenly had a bad feeling.
"I'll take this call."
Saying this, Xu Mo pressed the answer button.
Han Fei's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xu Mo, where are you?"
"I'm at home, eating. Is something wrong, Captain Han?"
"There is, do you know that someone just... Never mind, finish your meal first, then give me a call back. I'll tell you the details then."
Xu Mo: "..."
I knew it, I guessed right after all. There really is work to do!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness.

To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
