Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

"Fine, fine, I've finally seen through you today!" Auntie was furious.

Today she finally saw her sister-in-law's true colors.

Although she usually acts out, at least she's polite to the surface and calls her "sister."

As soon as money was mentioned, he started throwing a tantrum and acting like a spoiled brat.

She glanced at her younger brother's status and sighed inwardly. It seemed there was no way she could get the money back today.

Does she, as the older sister, really want to drive her younger brother to his death?

We can only think of another day. Anyway, he's her brother, so lending him the money doesn't mean it ends up in someone else's pocket.

Moreover, now that the phone is with Tingting, she can at least sell some stocks to recoup some of her losses.

As for Tingting's loan? She can ask Old Chen for it.

Anyway, Old Chen has money, so let him pay for it!

Old Chen can't just stay out of contact forever, like those TV shows where someone goes to find a small mushroom and disappears for decades!

Impossible. Old Chen is just the kind of guy who can only carry bricks and cement.

So we should be able to get in touch in a few days.

"Good luck to you all, Tingting, let's go!" Auntie cursed, grabbed Tingting, and turned to leave.

If women can't stand each other, the tension in the air can be unbearable.

Auntie and Tingting eventually left the hospital and returned home.

The two of them were preoccupied with their own thoughts and didn't say much along the way!

Back home, my aunt sighed, "Sell your stocks and use the money to pay off your latest loan!"

"But what if my uncle doesn't want to buy it after I sell it?" Chen Tingting gritted her teeth.

Second Aunt rolled her eyes: "Do you think he'll buy it now? With his current pathetic state, what ability does he have to buy it? You've seen what kind of person your aunt is, just consider it a lesson learned!"

"Besides, he didn't withdraw the money, and he bought the same stock that you previously told me not to sell. Thinking about it that way, it's somewhat acceptable."

The more my second aunt talked, the more she realized there was some truth to it.

Chen Tingting was momentarily speechless. If she hadn't sold it yesterday, she would have suffered the same fate today. It's just that her uncle's banner interfered, so...

Sigh, maybe this is just fate!

Our total assets are now down to only four or five hundred thousand. We'll withdraw as much as we can.

"But it's probably not that easy to sell now, and what if we don't have enough money?" Chen Tingting said with a sullen face.

"If it's not enough, ask your dad. He's rich now, he'll give you 500 million for the resettlement allowance!" Auntie said defiantly.

"500 million..." Chen Tingting's eyes widened. "How can there be so much? What does Dad do?"

"Who knows who he is? Don't touch stocks again, you hear me? If you do, I'll break your legs!" Auntie warned.

"Oh, okay!" Chen Tingting nodded happily in agreement.

Her mood instantly improved after losing 150 million, because her dad had 500 million!

This 500 million yuan was like a windfall, making her seem like a real princess all of a sudden.

Not only can the accounts be balanced, but there's also a lot of money, lots and lots of money.

Good heavens, she had never seen 500 million in her life. Chen Tingting's eyebrows arched involuntarily.

She started calling 500 million—no, she was calling her dad—wanting him to transfer the money.

However, the 500 million signal was out of service area and could not be reached!

Chen Tingting tried calling several more times, but still couldn't get through.

"Mom, how do I get through?" Tingting muttered in confusion.

"They've probably gone to some remote mountain forest to dig a base. I tried calling them before, but there was no signal!" Auntie said, pursing her lips.

"Huh? What about the money I borrowed?!" Chen Tingting immediately showed an expression that was even more unsightly than crying.

My second aunt hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I was thinking, isn't your cousin in Lucheng? He has money. Although he won't lend it to me, he should be able to help you borrow some money in an emergency!"

"Looking for my cousin? Does he have that much money?" Chen Tingting asked suspiciously.

"Probably. He bought your uncle a red SUV. I saw that it must cost several hundred thousand. He also drives a car worth several hundred thousand. He could easily afford to give some of that!" Auntie explained.

Chen Tingting's eyes lit up again: "Really? I'll call him right now!"

To her disappointment, Ye Chen's phone was also unreachable, indicating it was out of service area.

Chen Tingting was immediately puzzled: "I can't get through to my cousin either. Could it be that he went on a mission with Dad?"

"Tch, how could that be? There's no such coincidence!" Auntie waved her hand dismissively.

"Try calling it if you don't believe me!" Chen Tingting called again through the phone's speakerphone, but the result was the same.

Tingting was worried about not being able to borrow money, while her second aunt was thinking even more.

She seemed to know where Ye Chen's money came from!

Ye Chen must also have a settlement allowance of 500 million!

Goodness, this kid's been hiding his true colors!

How could you have so much money and not lend it to her!

"Let's wait and see. If all else fails, ask your cousin Zhenxiong for a bank loan and use the house as collateral!" Auntie finally came up with a good idea.

"If you want a loan, you go ahead and take it. I can't bring myself to ask you for one. Besides, I already have loans on me, so I definitely won't get one!" Chen Tingting snorted.

In the end, the second aunt had no choice but to call Zhenxiong herself to explain the matter.

Zhenxiong's answer was that he could get a loan, but not the full amount; he could only get around 50!

Chen Tingting's stock price plummeted and she's trapped with no way to escape; 50 yuan is definitely not enough to cover the losses.

She's come to terms with it now. If she can sell it, she will; if not, it's no big deal, since her dad has money anyway.

Even 50 yuan is still money, so Auntie had no choice but to go back and handle it. Chen Tingting also returned to school and resumed her normal life.

However, the atmosphere in the dormitories was a bit strange.

Liu Yiyi and Wang Zhaodi, who were originally quite close to Chen Tingting, are now maintaining a certain distance from her.

Xiao Qi is no different from before; he's just as indifferent as water.

Once a rift forms, it's not so easy to bridge it again.

Through this stock trading incident, the group finally saw Chen Tingting for who she truly was.

If the relationship is to return to what it was before, it's definitely impossible to get past that mental hurdle.

Since exams are coming up anyway, everyone should just focus on their own things to minimize awkwardness when they meet.

......

In Longjin Residential Area, a middle-aged man in a Tang suit was stopped by a security guard.

"Ye Chen lives inside, right? I'm looking for him!" The middle-aged man in the Tang suit said calmly.

The security captain raised an eyebrow: "Oh, Mr. Ye is out and hasn't returned yet. Before he left, he told us to come back in two weeks if anyone came looking for him!"

"He's not here, I know!" The middle-aged man in the Tang suit showed no change in expression and turned to leave.

The security captain muttered, "Mr. Ye is truly amazing; he actually knew someone was coming to see him. I'll have to ask him to do a fortune telling when he gets back!"

Although the middle-aged man in the Tang suit is a thing of the past, he couldn't help but scoff upon hearing this.

Count? What kind of counting is this? He's been gone for half a month, isn't it normal for someone to come looking for him?

The sect leader's kind is what you call good!

The middle-aged man in the Tang suit had originally planned to climb over the wall to take a look, but now he's given up on that idea.

"Hmph, then come back in half a month, let him live a little longer!" The young man in the Tang suit snorted and walked away.
