Chapter 77: Ryūgetsu (Part 2)

  "Miss, I've invited Miss Liuming to join us for dinner tomorrow night at 7 o'clock at the Tsui Shan Hotel." Cassidy said after hanging up.

  "Hmm?" Troubled by whether to invest all the money in stocks or bonds, Gu Huanlin unconsciously responded. She should recall what happened to the US stock market and bond market during the millennium. Although she was not interested in finance, Chu Lintao indeed had a large amount of funds flowing through the US stock market and bond market at that time, when he said...

  "Mr. Chu said that if it wasn't for Clinton's suggestion to biotech companies to disclose genetic inventions, which caused a sharp decline in biotech stocks and dragged down the overall market, he wouldn't have lost over $3 million." Cassidy slowly spat out these words, his elegant tone seeming to savor each word.

  "It's not just that, he also said that due to the US Treasury Department announcing that it will continue to buy back US debt in the future, funds will flow from the stock market into the bond market, causing a big rise in the bond market and a sharp decline in the stock market." Gu Huanli finally made up her mind, she looked up at Cassidy and said, "In March, put all the money in the bond market, once Clinton announces the public offering, sell all the bonds and buy..."

  She paused for a moment, her slender fingers pointing to the report on a biotech company that would become extremely well-known in a few years. "Its stock, then make a killing."

  Miss, the pocket money and lucky money you've accumulated over the years have already been used in large part to develop the art district and build galleries. If you want to make a big profit in the bond market and stock market, the remaining amount is far from enough.

  "Oh, sorry about that, I forgot to give it to you." Gu Huanli pulled out a card from the drawer and handed it to Cassidy, saying innocently, "Brother gave it to me before he went to Shanghai, said it was for me to buy things and have fun. You go check how much money is inside, take it all out if you can."

  Cassidy smiled wryly, shook his head, and after a long time picked up the phone and dialed a number. He spoke softly for a few words, answered some questions, and then hung up the phone. "Miss, there are approximately $7,260,000 on this card."

  “Cough, cough, cough...” Gu Huanli coughed several times until Cassidy stretched out his hand and gently patted her back before she finally caught her breath. It wasn't that she hadn't seen so much money before, but thinking about how her brother had casually transferred so much money into her card made her realize that she really couldn't be lazy when it came to earning money. "If you want to turn $7,260,000 into $50,000,000, at the very least, how long will it take?"

  "One night." Cassio's reply was crisp and concise.

  "Hey, you can't be serious?" Gu Huanli looked at him with pure and innocent eyes blinking, "Could it be that Little Card is a mid-to-high level expert?"

  "It's just a small trick, after all, it's hard to enter the grand hall." Cassidy smiled and gazed at Gu Huanli, saying frankly, "Gambling naturally has wins and losses, but in the end, it's a contest of mathematics, strategy, and courage."

  "Let's just have some fun then." Gu Huan Lian suddenly remembered something and couldn't help but let out a disappointed sigh, saying gloomily, "Whether it's Las Vegas or Macau, I won't be able to enter the casino in this form. If I go in as Liu Yue, there's also a strict time limit. Indeed, wanting to become rich overnight is just an unrealistic fantasy. So, I can only sincerely ask for your help."

  "If I'm not mistaken, Miss Ling once revealed to you that the Tsui Shan Hotel is a property of the Li family, and inside, there are many projects prepared for the young masters of wealthy families that can make them drunk with wealth."

  "What do you mean...?" Gu Huanli leaned back in her chair, closing her eyes slowly. "It seems that Liuyue must go to Cuishan Hotel for a stroll. But is an hour enough time?"

  The night color is vast and boundless.

  The sky is twinkling with countless small stars.

  In the Tsui Shan Hotel, all the prominent families who dominate the business world have gathered. The venue is decorated with a luxurious yet dignified atmosphere, revealing the host's meticulous attention to detail and thoughtful consideration.

  At this moment, Gu Huanli was walking into the core of the venue with some discomfort, arm in arm with Cassidy, who had transformed into financial advisor Elvish. This man always did things that were beyond her expectations.

  Charity Auction Gala

  He invited her to have dinner together at the charity auction party, and now, Gu Huanlin really believed that Ye's stomach was made of iron. He hadn't even considered whether others could eat quietly in this environment.

  She wore a red evening gown that was not out of place at such a banquet. After she took off the black fur coat from her shoulders, the backless little dress clung to her curvaceous figure like a second skin, revealing her perfect and delicate physique, as well as her smooth and pale skin that seemed to glow with a soft light. The special cut of the dress made her slender legs seem even more alluring.

  "Dear Mr. Elwes, I'm now utterly skeptical of your aesthetic sense." Gu Huanli walked into the meeting room with elegance in her high heels, a distant smile on her lips, and said softly, "I've never worn such a vibrant red color since I was young. Don't you think everyone is looking at me with a very strange gaze?"

  Cassidy gazed at her, and even he had to admit that tonight, Gu Huan Lian exuded an irresistible charm. Not only was her slender figure captivating, but also her sweet face. Her bright and intelligent eyes, elegant nose, and a mouthful of pearly white teeth, combined with her dazzling smile, made her entire face a breathtaking beauty that one couldn't help but stare at.

  In his impression, Gu Huanli was like water, warm and gentle. However, memories are the kind of thing that can be both the most profound and the least guaranteed, so he turned her into a flame, a fire that would burn everything in the world to ashes.

  Gu Huanli still felt awkward, although at this moment she was only a condensed soul, but that didn't mean she had lost her senses and feelings. Just then, a pair of slender and strong arms wrapped around her waist, slowly turning her body over, deep blue eyes quietly gazing at her, thin lips lightly moving, "Miss, you look beautiful like this."

  "Ah? Gu Huanli smiled somewhat wistfully, "Mr. Elivis, you truly are a gentleman worthy of respect from the world. I deeply thank you for your thoughtfulness."

  Cassidy could feel that under his palms, her body was still trembling uncontrollably, her simply adorned face looked pale and translucent as paper, her thin and delicate lips were also constantly quivering, her bright eyes filled with memories of grey sorrow.

  Gu Huanli's ears were filled with Cassidy's helpless sighs, as he held her tightly and patted her back gently, as if soothing a small infant. However, when he saw Luo Yichen appear in the hall, a flash of displeasure crossed his eyes. It was this man who had completely destroyed Gu Huanli's confidence with the most vicious words and worst behavior. If not for Gu Tianxi's existence, she might have spent her life immersed in crazy revenge and extreme obsession.

  At this moment, Luo Yi Chen had shed the fragments on his face and followed behind his parents with a cold expression, walking into the grand hall. His arrogant gaze was like a sharp blade, as if it could pierce through everyone's heart.

  As he walked into the hall that night, everyone else took a deep breath of cold air, because such charity events, he never participated in. Now such an exception, could it be that he came over to have some fun on account of the organizer Nie Jingting's face? Ye didn't bring a female companion with him, and as he walked past the crowd, his facial expression was even colder than ice, while Ruo Dichen's arrogance weakened several degrees in front of him.

  He pushed through the crowd, walking up to Cassidy and Gu Huanlin at night. His eyes were slightly dazed for a moment before quickly adjusting. He nodded lightly to Cassidy, then stretched out his hand to Gu Huanlin, saying coldly, "Woman, come here."

  Gu Huanli immediately lowered her head, looked around, and then raised her eyes in confusion to Cassidy, "I didn't know that this kind of place allows pets inside."

  "Miss." Cassidy was already accustomed to her sudden Martian thoughts, and with a gentle smile on his lips, he said to Gu Huanli, "This is Mr. Ye."

  "Night?" Gu Huanli's eyes suddenly became languid and charming, she kindly stretched out her right hand to gently place it on Ye's palm, her clear and gentle voice turned sultry and low, "Then, please call me Liumei, Mr. Night. Otherwise, using a unisex name to address someone, I'm afraid everyone in the hall with a different gender from yours will rush towards you without hesitation."

  The soft yet icy touch made his body numb all over, and he was shocked in his heart. The charm of this woman far exceeded his imagination...

  Gu Huanli smiled lightly at Cassidy and said slowly, "I heard there are many interesting things here. You've worked hard for a year, so tonight just relax."

  His hand paused again, this woman, outwardly like a budding flame flower, inwardly, it was unknown whether she was a dirty beast or an opium that drove people crazy. He turned his head to the followers behind him and said, "Take Mr. Elviss upstairs to take a look, the little thing there is still quite interesting, just right for relaxation."

  Watching Cassidy leave, Gu Huanli smiled and withdrew her hand from Ye's palm, but as soon as she retreated, she was caught back by Ye and pinned in his palm. The force was just right, controlling her so that she couldn't struggle, but also not hurting her too much. Gu Huanli finally felt a little scared, "What are you doing? Let me go!"

  Ye lightly smiled, stretched out his hand, and hooked her chin with one finger. Then he quietly admired Gu Huanli's somewhat pale face, which gradually became pink due to tension and anger, like the color of a peach blossom, becoming a deep, charming rose red...

  "Really... " he muttered in a low voice at night, "Woman, you're qualified. I'll take you as my mistress."
