Super Rich: Starting the game by going back ten years to buy Bitcoin

Looking up, the U8 drove out of the Lujiazui business district and merged into the main road of Pudong.

Li Yichen had one hand on the steering wheel when a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Liu Xiaoyu.

He initially sent this girl to oversee funds at Liu's Pharmaceuticals, but she actually stayed on to work there. It's been almost a month since we last saw each other.

"Ling'er, navigate to Liu's Pharmaceutical Company."

A blue light flashed above the watch, and Ling'er's holographic figure popped out, arms crossed over her chest, head tilted to the side.

"Master, are you going to meet all the sisters today? Sister Xiao in the morning, Sister Liu in the afternoon, and Brother Gu in the evening. This schedule is even tighter than the Prime Minister's."

Li Yichen rolled his eyes.

"Stop talking nonsense and get on the road."

Ling'er stuck out her tongue and pulled it back into the watch face. The navigation route had been planned, and the vehicle automatically merged into the lane, heading southeast.

Six months ago, he invested 1.5 billion yuan in Liu Xue's research and development of an effective anti-cancer drug. At the time, Liu Xiaoyu went there as a fund supervisor, but she ended up settling down there.

Twenty minutes later.

The car turned into a modern biomedical industrial park.

Li Yichen had just parked the car and stepped onto the ground when he looked up and froze.

A red banner with white lettering hung on the exterior wall of the company building; the font was so large that it could be seen from three blocks away.

"Warmest congratulations on the successful completion of the Phase III clinical trial of Liu's Pharmaceutical's highly effective anti-cancer drug!"

He raised an eyebrow.

"It's progressing well."

Pushing open the glass door to the lobby, I saw two young women at the front desk, heads down, organizing documents. The moment they looked up at the sound of footsteps, they both sprang to their feet from their swivel chairs.

"Mr. Li! You've arrived!"

The one on the left had a high-pitched voice and was so excited that she didn't know what to do with her hands. The one on the right went even further; while her colleague was talking, she secretly took a picture with her phone under the table.

Li Yichen waved his hand.

"Is your General Manager Liu here?"

"Yes! The office is upstairs! You can just go up directly, no appointment needed!"

The elevator goes directly to the top floor.

Li Yichen walked to the door at the end and knocked twice.

"Come in," came Liu Xue's voice from inside, sounding somewhat tired.

He pushed the door open and went in.

Liu Xue was buried in a stack of documents, her brows slightly furrowed, her pen moving rapidly across the paper. She didn't even look up.

"Just put the report on the table, I'll look at it in a bit."

Li Yichen deliberately lowered his voice, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"Mr. Liu, I'm not here to deliver a report. I'm here to discuss a big business deal with you."

Liu Xue paused, her pen poised.

She looked up.

The moment their eyes met, Liu Xue froze for a second. Then she pushed her chair back and stood up.

"Yichen? What brings you here?"

She quickly walked around the table, instinctively reaching out to grab his arm. Halfway there, she pulled her hand back, replacing it with a formulaic gesturing motion.

"Come, sit on that sofa over there, I'll make you some coffee."

Her ears turned red.

Li Yichen didn't point it out, and walked to the sofa with a smile and sat down.

Liu Xue took out her treasured blue mountain beans, ground them, and brewed them, her movements three times more careful than usual. When she brought it over, the latte art around the rim of the cup was a complete heart shape.

Li Yichen took it and drank a sip.

"The craftsmanship is quite good."

He looked around and asked, "Mr. Liu, where's Xiaoyu? Isn't she with you?"

Liu Xue sat down opposite her, holding her own cup.

Hearing that the first thing he asked Liu Xiaoyu when he entered the room, something flashed in her eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.

"You called me General Manager Liu?" She turned her head, looking directly at me. "That's too formal. We're already so familiar with each other, you can just call me Xue'er from now on."

The coffee cup in Li Yichen's hand was suspended in mid-air.

He stared at Liu Xue for two seconds, and a slow smile spread across his face.

"Oh? You call me Xue'er? That's quite an intimate way to address you." He put down his cup, draped an arm over the back of the sofa, and tilted his head to scrutinize her. "What, Mr. Liu, are you perhaps captivated by my handsome, wealthy, and charming demeanor, and have fallen for me?"

After saying that, he deliberately raised his eyebrows and struck what he thought was a very stylish pose.

Liu Xue's face flushed bright red.

She lowered her head, her fingers twisting the handle of the cup. Her voice was barely audible, like a mosquito's hum.

"Mr. Li, you're joking... Everyone knows you're surrounded by women, and I know my place; I'm not good enough for you..."

Towards the end, his tone carried a hint of self-deprecation, along with an undisguised sourness.

Li Yichen's smile froze for half a second.

broken.

We've gone too far.

He quickly cleared his throat. "Ahem, I was just kidding, don't take it seriously. By the way, where is Xiaoyu now?"

Liu Xue took a deep breath and resumed her professional businesswoman demeanor.

"Xiaoyu is a rising star in our company now. She's in charge of the new anti-cancer drug project, and she's in a meeting in her department right now."

"The person in charge?" Li Yichen was somewhat surprised. "When did this girl become so capable?"

Liu Xue smiled. "When you sent her to oversee the funds, I saw her capabilities firsthand."

She picked up the extension phone on the table and dialed it.

Less than five minutes.

The office door was forced open from the outside.

Liu Xiaoyu rushed in, panting heavily.

"Sister Xue, who is this guest you're talking about—Brother Li?!"

Her eyes widened, and the next second she lunged forward, wrapping her arms around Li Yichen's neck.

"What brings you here! I've missed you so much!"

Li Yichen was knocked back by her bump and patted the back of her head with a smile.

"Okay, okay, let go, you're strangling me."

The three of them talked for almost an hour.

Li Yichen felt much more at ease upon learning that the anti-cancer drug had achieved great success in its Phase III clinical trials and was expected to be launched on the market within six months. The initial investment of 1.5 billion yuan had been worthwhile.

I glanced at the time. It was almost five o'clock.

He stood up. "Okay, I'm leaving now. You two keep going."

Liu Xue stood up. "Yichen, since you're here, how about we have dinner together tonight? Consider it a celebration of the upcoming market launch of our new phase III drug."

Liu Xiaoyu chimed in from the side, "Yeah, Brother Li, it's been so long since we got together!"

"Let's do it another day." Li Yichen grabbed the car keys from the coffee table. "I have plans tonight. If I don't go, that person will probably come and block my door with a tank."

Both women became interested at the same time.

"Who is it? Such a grand entrance!"

Li Yichen winked at them.

"People from the military region. The rest, keep it a secret."

After saying goodbye to the two, he went downstairs, drove away, and left.

Back at the villa, I washed my face and changed into casual clothes. I called Dashengli Private Kitchen to reserve a private room, and then took a nap in the rocking chair in the backyard.

When I woke up and looked at the clock, it was six o'clock.

"Oh no, I'm going to be late!"

He grabbed his keys and rushed out the door.

Looking up, I saw the U8 merging into the evening rush hour traffic. Everywhere was completely jammed.

"Ling'er, you drive."

"receive."

Ling'er took over the steering wheel, and Li Yichen casually pulled out his phone to browse the news. The news about the Future High-Speed ​​Rail line had already topped the trending charts on major platforms, with the comments section filled with positive reviews, which put him in a great mood.

As I was scrolling, I completely forgot to look up and see where I was going.

"That U8! Pull over!"

The sound from the loudspeaker blasted in my ears.

Li Yichen suddenly looked up. At the intersection ahead, two traffic police officers were gesturing to him.

Ling'er appeared nervously. "Master, we've been stopped!"

The car came to a stable stop on the shoulder of the road.

A young traffic policeman walked over, bent down, and knocked on the car window.

"Driver's license, vehicle registration certificate."

Li Yichen obediently handed it over.

After the traffic police finished their inspection, they looked up with a serious expression.

"Mr. Li, do you know which traffic rule you just violated?"

Li Yichen looked bewildered. "I wasn't speeding, and I didn't run a red light!"

The traffic policeman pointed to the cell phone on his lap, its screen still lit up.

"During rush hour in the city, using assisted driving while looking down at your phone and not paying attention to road conditions is a serious traffic violation."

Li Yichen opened his mouth.

It’s over.

The evidence is irrefutable; there's nothing more to say.

He obediently put his phone back in his pocket and placed both hands properly on the steering wheel.

The traffic policeman sighed and took out his ticket book.

"Comrade, assisted driving is just an aid; it cannot replace human judgment. Look at your state just now. If someone suddenly jumped out in front of you, would you have been able to react? There are countless roads, but safety is the first priority. Reckless driving will bring tears to your loved ones' eyes!"

Li Yichen kept his head down, his attitude upright.

"You're right, it was my fault."

ten minutes.

Li Yichen was lectured for a full ten minutes.

When the ticket was handed to him, Li Yichen accepted it with both hands, more respectfully than when signing a billion-dollar contract.

"I'll definitely be more careful next time, thank you, traffic police officer."

The car restarted and merged back into traffic.

Li Yichen looked at the two-hundred-yuan ticket in his hand and gave a bitter laugh.

"Ling'er, why didn't you warn me there were traffic police ahead?"

Ling'er shrank her head, her voice so soft it sounded like she had done something wrong.

"Sorry, Master... I was focused entirely on route planning and vehicle control, and I didn't detect the traffic police officers ahead. I'll definitely add a traffic police recognition module next time!"

Li Yichen folded the ticket and casually stuffed it into his pocket.

Actually, with his connections, he could have gotten the ticket off with just one phone call.

But he didn't hit it.

Rules are rules. The traffic police officer is right; it was indeed his own fault.

No matter how high your net worth is, you still have to behave properly when it comes to traffic laws.

"Let's go." He patted the steering wheel. "Don't keep Brother Gu waiting. That old man could really block the door with a tank."

Looking up, Li Yichen watched as the U8 accelerated towards Dashengli Private Kitchen. This time, he gripped the steering wheel with both hands, staring straight ahead, his back ramrod straight.

He looks like a complete novice driver who just got his license.
