I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 402 The Self-Proclaimed Clever Chung Koon-man
A quarter past ten.

Above an apartment building in a certain complex, Ling Yao looked down as the white Land Cruiser drove away.

This is the second time he has rejected me.

Ling Yao's face showed bitterness.

She clearly remembered that the last time Wei Lin drove her back in that Cullinan, she had also invited him to come up for a drink of water.

At the time, Wei Lin refused, saying he wasn't thirsty.

She tried the same trick again, but Wei Lin smiled and shook his head in refusal, which made her feel extremely frustrated.

"Am I not good-looking? Or have I made myself look too cheap? Does he look down on me?"

Ling Yao returned to the small bathroom and looked closely at her face in the mirror, suddenly losing confidence.

Her classmates from her school days, the way men looked at her when she was shopping, and the men who fawned over her when she and Hu Xiaoying attended dinner parties...

She knew she was beautiful enough to easily attract men's attention, and that too many people coveted her beauty.

But Wei Lin seems to be an exception.

"Sakura, if you invite a man to dinner and he prepares a small gift for you beforehand, does that mean he...?"

Looking at the Cartier gift bag on the table, Ling Yao couldn't help but call Hu Xiaoying. She felt that Hu Xiaoying was very knowledgeable in this area and should be able to guess Wei Lin's meaning.

Before Ling Yao could finish speaking, Hu Xiaoying interrupted her directly and asked bluntly, "What did he give you?!"

Ling Yao hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "A Cartier bracelet."

Hu Xiaoying: "How much?"

Ling Yao: "It will probably cost a little over 30,000."

"He wants to sleep with you!" Hu Xiaoying said calmly and confidently, "How old is he? Does he have a family? When he took you home tonight, did he insist on coming upstairs for a chat? Like asking for a glass of water, charging his phone because it was dead, or asking to use the restroom?"

Ling Yao blushed and quickly said, "No!"

Hu Xiaoying chuckled and said, "So before he even took you home, he tried to drag you into a hotel! Did he get you to drink a lot of alcohol? How much did you drink?"

"Seven or eight ounces, white," Ling Yao replied.

"I knew it would be like this!" Hu Xiaoying said with a knowing look, "Your alcohol tolerance is pretty good now! You downed seven or eight ounces of baijiu and you weren't completely drunk? You didn't let him get his way? Ling Yao, it seems I underestimated you. You're even better than me!"

"Xiaoying, what if he hadn't asked me to come upstairs, hadn't forced me to drink, and hadn't dragged me to a hotel?" Ling Yao asked.

Hu Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, then said, "Then he's an idiot!"

Ling Yao was stunned: "Don't talk nonsense! He's not an idiot, he's just very serious!"

Hu Xiaoying: "Hahahaha! Where in the world are there any decent men? Ling Yao, I think you're bewitched, actually defending him! By the way, is he rich? How much?"

Ling Yao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Probably... assets worth over 100 million."

"Ling Yao! Are you sure you can handle this? If you can't, then give me his WeChat and let me try!" Hu Xiaoying clenched her fists, eager to try.

Ling Yao snorted lightly: "I can do it!"

She immediately hung up the phone.

……

Lin Nanxi's small apartment.

After Wei Lin came over to shower and change, she stayed in her small study, engrossed in working on design drawings.

"Just a moment, I'll be done soon."

Lin Nanxi said apologetically.

Wei Lin smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Thanks to clients introduced by Ma Yungui, Linxi Advertising Design Company has finally gotten on the right track.

However, relying solely on Ma Yungui's clients can only keep the company afloat. If Linxi wants to achieve greater development, it cannot rely on just these clients.

For this reason, Lin Nanxi did not dare to hire a large number of people and did many things herself.

As the company's boss, she was still working on design drafts late at night, which shows that she must be lacking excellent designers.

"Once this wave of stock trading is over, I'll say hello to Huang Xingzhi, Qian Zixu, Han Jie, Zhao Yuanqing, and the others one by one."

"If these guys just lend a hand and give Linxi some advertising, she should dare to continue recruiting."

"Don't rush, tell her later."

Wei Lin lay in bed, deep in thought.

At the same time, he also kept an eye on the love value system in his mind, and a strange look flashed across his lips.

Goodwill can transform into affection, but if ignored and deliberately treated coldly, affection will also drop back to goodwill. Wei Lin clearly remembered that after helping Ling Yao out of a predicament and taking her home from several malicious classmates, Ling Yao's goodwill turned into affection.

Afterwards, Wei Lin ignored Ling Yao's several invitations and did not try to escalate their relationship quickly through physical contact.

Over time, Ling Yao's affection level dropped to goodwill level.

Just tonight, just now, Ling Yao's favorability rating has turned back into love.

"Relationships need maintenance, or at least a physical relationship. Only when a relationship is established can love be stable..."

Wei Lin squinted as he pondered.

Twenty minutes later.

Lin Nanxi, wearing a silk nightgown, looked embarrassed and said, "The company has been a bit busy lately, and I have to work overtime after I get back. I'm making you wait for me."

Wei Lin opened his arms and laughed, "It's okay, come and sleep."

Lin Nanxi's eyes immediately became alluring.

……

The next day.

New Elite Investments.

"Uncle, is there something Wei Lin has on you? Tell me honestly, and I'll figure out a way to solve it for you!"

Zhong Guanwen was summoned early in the morning. As soon as he arrived at Ma Yungui's office, he lowered his voice and said, "I've been thinking about this all night, and I just can't understand why you gave him so many shares for no reason!"

"Is he a middleman? Is there someone else who really wants our newly rich stock?"

"Who is the other party? Which leader?"

"Is Wei Lin his puppet?"

Zhong Guanwen blurted out all his guesses, then shouted, "No matter what, you should let me know what's going on! What's going on? Uncle, I beg you to explain it to me clearly!"

Ma Yungui adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, looked at the self-righteous Zhong Guanwen, and couldn't help but sigh.

He really couldn't explain it clearly.

Could it be that we should tell Zhong Guanwen that Wei Lin has an extremely keen sense of the stock market?

Could it be that the two big sums of money the newly rich made recently were both because of Wei Lin?

He is the stabilizing force of Xingui Investment; so many investors are sending money to the company, all drawn by him, Ma Yungui.

If others found out that his recent amazing performance in the financial market was based on Wei Lin's information, who would still recognize him?

Who still trusts newly rich investors?
Zhao Fulong was his most trusted brother, and he always kept his mouth shut, so he wasn't worried about Zhao Fulong saying anything out of line.

But Zhong Guanwen's nephew has always been unreliable.

He is frankly stating the facts, but Zhong Guanwen might talk nonsense everywhere after drinking too much, and then the prestige and reputation he has worked so hard to build will be destroyed!
“It’s not that Wei Lin has any leverage over me, but rather…”

Ma Yungui hesitated for a long time, then looked troubled and said, "Wei Lin has a powerful backer. Don't worry about it. Just give us the shares! Remember that! Not only you, but even I can't afford to offend the powerful backer of Wei Lin. Giving us the shares is the best thing for us!"

Zhong Guanwen was horrified, and with an air of finally understanding, he nodded and said, "I understand."

Ma Yungui patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't go looking for trouble with Wei Lin anymore, we can't afford to mess with him!"

Zhong Guanwen said with a bitter face, "You should have said so earlier! Uncle, if you had just reminded me sooner, I would never have done something so stupid!"

……

On Tuesday, April 1st, the stock market plummeted.

On Wednesday, April 2nd, the stock market saw both rises and falls, with a larger overall decline.

On Thursday, April 3rd, the stock market fluctuated, with both gains and losses, but remained largely flat.

After that, the market began to recover and then surged again.

December 4th, Monday.

Affection level: 11086/50000.

Life Energy: 1200/5000.

The volatile week is finally over, and the stock market opened strong today, with the two stocks recommended by Wei Lin performing exceptionally well.

"The week's fluctuations did not have a significant impact on these two stocks; in fact, they were still rising overall."

Wei Lin glanced at the trend chart and felt relieved.
