The next morning, as was his habit, employee Xiao Zhang got up early and took the subway to Kunlun Trading Company in Mingzhu Building.

Normally at this time, he would have to rush to catch the subway, afraid of being late and having his pay docked, but today he was as relaxed as if he were taking a walk.

When he arrived at the company, he found many colleagues standing at the company entrance, chatting together, but no one went in to work.

He checked the time; it was just past eight o'clock.

Curious, he asked his colleague, "What's going on? Why isn't anyone going in?"

My colleague, Xiao Li, pursed his lips and pointed to the company gate:

"Manager Su said that we can only clock in at 8:25, and anyone who dares to clock in early will be penalized! He said the boss is afraid we'll work overtime maliciously and exceed the working hours."

Xiao Zhang was dumbfounded. How could he not let his employees clock in early?

He shook his head, chatted with his colleagues at the door, and insisted on staying until 8:30 before going into the company to clock in.

Upon entering the office, Xiao Zhang found that the entire work atmosphere had been completely transformed.

Although everyone was muttering that "this company is probably going to go under," they were all working harder than ever.

Everyone was working diligently, the keyboards clattering and the phones ringing out.

……

When the sun was high in the sky, Cao Kun got off Chen Lu.

Chen Lu turned over and picked up her pajamas from under the bed.

With a hint of coquettishness on her face, she complained as she dressed, "Darling, you're too rough, I almost fainted."

"And...why do you never use contraception?"

Cao Kun raised an eyebrow and smiled, "What, my lovely Lulu doesn't want to have my baby?"

Chen Lu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she gently shook her head, saying, "No, not at all."

Her voice lowered, and a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.

Chen Lu had already decided in her heart that she was in love with Cao Kun, and her failure to take any action against him was, in fact, tacit approval.

She even started fantasizing about when she could bring Cao Kun home to meet her parents and officially establish their relationship.

"Honey, when... can I take you to meet my parents?" Chen Lu asked tentatively, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"Cough cough..."

Cao Kun was taken aback, coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, and laughed it off:

"Well, let's take it slow. We can pick a better day after this period is over, okay?"

Chen Lu pouted, somewhat disappointed, but didn't press further and nodded obediently.

Seeing that she had stopped talking, Cao Kun also began to put on his clothes.

With the system, he will never be tied to any woman in his life, and he will never be able to get married.

But not getting married doesn't mean you can't have a wedding; it just means the timing isn't right yet.

After all, Cao Kun had given out so much money in gifts over more than ten years of work, he had to get it back eventually.

If you can't get it back after one application, you can just apply for it a few more times!

……

Cao Kun and Chen Lu went downstairs together and entered the villa's spacious dining room.

Li Meiwei was already seated at the long table, elegantly sipping her coffee. Breakfast was laid out on the table, emitting an enticing aroma.

In the kitchen, an auntie in a neat uniform was busy at work.

Su Yue acted quickly, and within a few days, all the domestic service personnel, including chefs and cleaners, were in place.

Seeing Cao Kun come down, Li Meiwei tossed her hair and teased, "Why did it take you so long to come down? The breakfast has been heated up twice already."

Chen Lu blushed slightly, ran over and hugged Li Meiwei's arm, saying coquettishly, "Sister Wei~ you're making fun of me too."

Cao Kun made a pinching gesture behind her back, and Li Meiwei rolled her eyes at him when Chen Lu wasn't looking.

Both women took the day off from work. Wang Meng hoped they could stay in Fuli Garden as much as possible until the attack was resolved.

After breakfast, at 8:30, Cao Kun drove to the company.

This past week has been crucial; he has to be at the company, keeping a close eye on Tianhuan New Materials' stock price increase.

As soon as I arrived at the company, I received a call from Qian Xining: "Cao Kun, are you at the company?"

"Qian Haoran heard about your stock trading from me and insisted on bringing his cronies to your company to take a look."

Cao Kun laughed and said, "Why doesn't he just call me himself?"

Qian Xining would never admit that she couldn't find an excuse to call Cao Kun and thus snatched the opportunity away.

For this, he even gave Qian Haoran a severe beating.

She quickly changed the subject: "By the way, your car was hit?"

Cao Kun was taken aback: "How did you know?"

Although Qian Xining was present when Cao Kun answered the phone, he did not tell her the details of the matter at the time, only saying that it was related to the group of four.

Qian Xining rolled her eyes on the other end of the phone and said angrily, "Hmph, the car was already sent to my place for repairs, how could I not know?"

This car has always been her most prized possession, and now that it has been damaged, she is heartbroken.

Cao Kun smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, I damaged your car."

"But speaking of which, I have to thank you for this car. It's really tough, almost as tough as mine."

Qian Xining was stunned for a long time upon hearing this, her face flushing red, and she spat out, "Pah! Shameless!"

After a while, she became serious again:

"I'll give you a phone number. It's Captain Yu from the city's criminal investigation team, who is also a good friend of mine. He's in charge of the case involving the four-man gang from Yanbian."

"Good friend?" Cao Kun felt a strange unease rising in his heart.

Qian Xining is a very beautiful girl with a good personality and an excellent family background.

She has a "good friend" who is a criminal police captain by her side, which makes him feel a little threatened.

Could it be that Captain Yu will become his rival in love?

His tone became somewhat awkward, he gave a few perfunctory replies, and hung up the phone.

Not long after they sat down, Wang Meng pushed open the door and came in to report, "Boss, Young Master Qian has brought a few friends over."

Cao Kun laughed and said, "Quickly, invite them in."

Having said that, he got up and went to greet them.

At the company entrance, Qian Haoran still had that carefree attitude, followed by Liu Yong and Yan Bin.

The three boys, swaying unsteadily, followed the bodyguard into Kunlun Trading Company.

Upon seeing Cao Kun from afar, Qian Haoran immediately laughed and said, "Brother Kun! I didn't know you were a stock market genius! Quickly help these two hopeless investors!"

Liu Yong and Yan Bin were immediately embarrassed, with unnatural smiles on their faces.

Although he came to ask for a favor, Qian Haoran's shout made him feel a little embarrassed, so he could only force a smile.

Cao Kun smiled slightly and led the three of them to the trading room.

In the trading room, Xiao Li was nervously adjusting the computer with his newly formed team of traders, explaining something word by word.

The three were very curious about the scene and gathered around the screen, pointing and gesturing with great interest.

After a moment, Qian Haoran finally revealed his purpose:

"Brother Kun, those two good-for-nothing investors had to do something wrong and instead went into the stock market. In the end, they each lost more than 20 million."

"They heard from me that you're good at stock trading, so they begged me to come to you to see if you have any good stock recommendations so they can recoup their losses."

Cao Kun had already guessed their intentions, and smiled slightly upon hearing this: "I dare to recommend it, but... would you dare to buy it?"
