Wang Jing let out a sigh of helplessness and replied, “If there’s truly no alternative, I’ll have to consider borrowing another 100,000 yuan from a friend to buy some time. It’s quite embarrassing, but it seems like the only option I have left.”

“I’ve received inside information that the stock I hold in a city wall technology company is expected to significantly increase in value next month. I plan to sell it at that time and earn at least three to four million yuan. Once I sell it, I’ll promptly repay the 100,000 yuan I borrowed from you. Additionally, I’ll give you an additional 50,000 yuan as interest,” Wang Jing explained with hopeful anticipation.

Within a mere month, the borrowed 100,000 yuan had transformed into 150,000 yuan. The significant returns sparked a glimmer of excitement in Huang Yue’s eyes. However, she maintained her polite demeanor and responded, “Why worry about interest? Can’t I simply be concerned about your well-being, regardless of any troubles you may face?”

Wang Jing was deeply moved. She held Huang Yue’s hand tightly and expressed her gratitude, “Thank you, Huang Yue. Lately, I’ve been seeking financial assistance from various sources, and it’s quite embarrassing to admit. Starting a business can be incredibly challenging, and I’ve never experienced a life where I have to borrow money like this before.”

Huang Yue pondered over the remaining 100,000 yuan in her bank account and hesitated for a moment. However, as she reminisced about how Wang Jing had used his last bit of money to buy her porridge and how he showed gratitude by offering interest…

Huang Yue pretended to ask casually, “How do you know that the insider information will definitely be accurate?”

When Wang Jing heard this, he knew that there was a chance. He smiled and reached out to stroke the tip of Huang Yue’s nose dotingly. He said confidently, “If I can’t even verify this piece of information, then all my experience in this industry would be in vain.”

Huang Yue didn’t give up and asked again, “No matter what, there will always be accidents. What if it’s not accurate?”

Upon hearing Huang Yue’s concerns, Wang Jing responded calmly, “If an unexpected situation arises, I can also sell a portion of the shares. It’s just a matter of earning a smaller amount. Initially, I planned to sell them this month to cover our living expenses. However, when my good friend learned about it, he advised me to wait a little longer. If I were to sell them now, I would only earn around 500,000 yuan, which I replace unsatisfactory as well.” Huang Yue felt a sense of relief as she found a reason to explain the remaining money in her bank account. She spoke up, “Actually, I still have 100,000 yuan in my account, but I’ve been keeping it aside for my brother, which is why I didn’t lend it to you before. However, seeing your current situation breaks my heart. I don’t want to see you in a position where you have to rely on others. I’ll transfer the money to you later.”

Wang Jing said 100,000 yuan was just a test. He thought that he would earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, but he did not expect Huang Yue to really have that amount of money.

Wang Jing smiled and gently declined, “No need. That money belongs to your brother, and it’s understandable that you didn’t lend it to inc. I will just be shameless and reach out to a few more friends.”

As Wang Jing showed her understanding and resilience, Huang Yue’s conviction in choosing the right person grew stronger. Throughout her life, she had always been the one to offer emotional support and value to others. However, with Wang Jing, she found herself in the position of being cared for and the one getting this emotional support.

Huang Yue took out her phone and transferred the money. “You’re not allowed to refuse!”

When Wang Jing saw the notification on his phone, he smiled helplessly and said, “Alright, then it’s a deal. Consider the 100,000 yuan as 50,000 yuan in interest. Let your future brother-in-law know that his sister has found a trustworthy man.”

Wang Jing’s words brought reassurance to Huang Yue, causing her to lower her head in shyness. She playfully replied, “Who said I agreed to marry you? And here you are already calling my brother your brother-in-law.”

Despite half of Huang Yue’s face being covered in gauze, her collagen-treated skin still radiated a youthful and vibrant aura. The presence of the gauze enhanced her delicate appearance, causing Wang Jing’s heart to warm up even more at the sight of her.

Smelling the fragrance on Wang Yue’s body, he leaned over and pressed Huang Yue into the car to kiss her.

The atmosphere in the car was ambiguous for a moment. Wang Jing’s superb kissing skills made Huang Yue, who still had her first kiss, lose her mind. If not for the fact that she still had a trace of clarity in her heart and wanted to save her first time for their wedding night, she might have given her body to Wang Jing this time.

When the afternoon class was about to begin, Wen Nian noticed Huang Yue entering the classroom through the back door. Even though Huang Yue had covered her neck with a scarf, Wen Nian could still catch a glimpse of a faint hickey on her neck. The sight piqued Wen Nian’s curiosity and made her wonder what had happened to Huang Yue.

As Wen Nian observed the hickey on Huang Yue’s neck, her mind wandered back to her past life. She couldn’t recall the exact date, but she was certain it was towards the end of the year, which happened to be the present month. Memories flooded her mind, reminding her of a man who had deceived numerous affluent and young women by promising insider information about the stock market. He took their investments and loans and vanished without a trace.

Wen Nian couldn’t be certain about the extent of Huang Yue and Wang Jing’s involvement or whether she had transferred any money. However, this didn’t deter her from stirring up Huang Yue’s desires and dreams of wealth. This was not urgent. It was crucial to develop a foolproof strategy to avoid alerting the potential adversaries and arousing any suspicion in Huang Yue’s mind..
