Chapter 748: Liao Qiulong Started Figuring out What Really Caused the Crisis of His Company

Upon seeing that, Luosang really admired Jiang Qifei. She was over fifty years old, yet still, she had managed to talk Liao Qiulong into marrying her. Liao Qiulong was probably enchanted by her.

He was a successful businessman, though. He was rich and capable, therefore, even though many people had been criticizing him, he wasn’t affected. However, not long after he got married again, the price of Qifeng’s stock suddenly began falling, and the fall lasted for a whole week.

Right after that, an article popped up on the internet. The article said that Liao Qiulong’s ex-wife, Wang Ping, could bring fortune to her husband and that the reason why his business had declined so rapidly was that his current wife brought bad luck to him.

Luosang read the article with great interest. She had always disliked men who abandoned their wives when they weren’t young and pretty anymore. She wondered how Liao Qiulong would feel when he read that article.

Some people said that rich people could do anything, but in fact, most of them were a little superstitious.

…

In Qifeng, Liao Qiulong read the article through his thick glasses, then threw his cellphone away. “Ridiculous! Can a woman possibly control Liao Qiulong’s luck? Someone is clearly behind this.”

His assistant couldn’t help but remind him in a low voice, “This kind of thing never happened before you got divorced.”

Liao Qiulong gave him a cold glare and said, “What? Even you believe in this kind of article?”

The assistant lowered his head and stayed silent.

Liao Qiulong was very unhappy. Over all these years, he had been through a lot. Reasonably speaking, his company should have been quite stable now, but lately, the price of his stocks was out of control. He was clearly aware that the stock market was very complicated and that someone was targeting his company.

While he was thinking, the stock price dropped again. Looking at the changing number, Liao Qiulong felt as if all his blood had gushed into his brain. “Go, go, and find out who has undersold the stock of our company,” said Liao Quilong, trembling.

“Yes.” His assistant hurriedly walked out.

He paced in his office. Soon afterward, he received a video call from Jiang Qifei. “Qiulong, look, which one do you like?” Jiang Qifei showed him two bags.

“They look pretty much the same.” Liao Qiulong was feeling annoyed. He was in no mood to pick bags for her.

“They aren’t the same. This one is brown, and this one is black,” said Jiang Qifei with a pouting smile. “I like them both. Can I get them both?”

“Whatever you like.” Liao Qiulong looked at Jiang Qifei on his phone screen, suddenly thinking of that article. Ever since he had married her, his business had indeed been declining.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he felt, so he just ended the call. Before long, he received the bill on his phone. Fourteen thousand dollars for two bags.

He had never thought of fourteen thousand dollars as an expensive price before. But these days, millions of dollars that belonged to his company had disappeared in the stock market, and that gave him a headache. However, as his wife, Jiang Qifei knew nothing about it. She was merely obsessed with shopping.

His ex-wife would have been too anxious to eat already. His ex-wife, Wang Ping, had been ill-tempered but thrifty.

His assistant walked in with haste. “Mr. Liao, we’ve found it. Mr. Liu from Banglong undersold thirty million shares.”

Liao Qiulong was so shocked that his hands were even shaking. “That’s impossible. Mr. Liu and I have been good friends for so many years…”

“It’s true…” His assistant gave him a bitter smile.

Liao Qiulong hurriedly picked up his phone, found Mr. Liu’s number, and called him. “Liu Jing, what do you want? I’ve known you for decades. In those years, you asked me to help you purchase the stocks. Now, our stocks have had a ten-fold rise, yet you sold your share just now. How could you do that to me? Are you trying to kill me?”

Mr. Liu explained helplessly, “Mr. Liao, I had no choice. You’ve made some enemies, do you know that? If I didn’t sell my shares, I’d die along with you. I’d be doomed if the price went back to what it was ten years ago.”

“What do you mean?” The look on Liao Qiulong’s face turned cold.

“Look how much the price of Qifeng’s stocks has drifted down lately. From last week to when I sold my shares today, I lost hundreds of millions.” Mr. Liu said honestly, “I should have sold my shares earlier.”

Upon hearing that, Liao Qiulong felt a coldness in his spine. Mr. Liu had undersold his shares today. For that reason, the price would certainly go further down, and quicker. By then, more people would undersell their shares. If the situation continued, Qifeng would really go back to what it had been ten years ago. The most rapid development of the country’s economy had happened in those ten years. What would happen if the company went back? Liao Qiulong couldn’t even imagine it. Not to mention the fact that there were plenty of people in the market who would be happy to hit a person when he was down.

“Liu, why didn’t you tell me that earlier?” Liao Qiulong’s tone became slightly more pleasant. “Who’s doing this to me?”

“All right, for the sake of our friendship, I’ll make an appointment with that man for you,” said Mr. Liu. “But, you may as well try to solve all the problems with him in a peaceful way. He’s a master in finance. You’re not going to beat him in his game. Besides, he’s not an ordinary man.”

Liao Qiulong dropped the phone and spent a long while thinking. He couldn’t think of anyone whom he had possibly offended. The only bad thing he had done recently was divorce Wang Ping.

Did this have something to do with her? Probably not. Wang Ping was born into an ordinary family and didn’t know anyone who had that kind of power. He had even disliked her for her vulgarity.

Was it because of Jiang Qifei?

Liao Qiulong felt so stressed. Earlier that day, when the stock price reached the bottom limit again, his heart sank along with it.

Thankfully, he soon heard from Mr. Liu again. The latter told him that that mysterious person would meet him at the Zunlai Club.

That club was a little far away. It was already six o’clock when Liao Qiulong arrived there. He pushed open the door to the VIP room and saw a young man in a dark-red suit sitting in there. The light in the room was a little dim, pouring on one side of his face. He had an incredibly handsome, chiseled face and an outstanding presence. Sitting next to him was a pretty lady wearing a sky-blue long dress, looking like she was eighteen years old. She was leaning on the man’s chest, her hair hanging loosely over her shoulders.

Liao Qiulong was slightly stunned. He didn’t think that he would be meeting such young people. However, he also realized that the young man’s face was very familiar. Half a minute later, he recognized him as Nian Junting, the CEO of Shengting.

He was only around thirty, yet at financing, he was scarily gifted. Many of his peers wished that he would suffer some bad luck. However, he was doing perfectly well. He had been investing in more and more fields, from the electronic industry to futuristic techniques to the film and television industry.

Liao Qiulong had always looked down on young people like him. He believed all that Nian Junting had was given to him by his parents, so earlier, when Jiang Qifei had asked him for a favor, he had helped her without hesitation.

Now, after seeing Nian Junting, he started to figure out what had really caused the crisis of his company.

“Mr. Liao, please sit down.” Upon seeing Liao Qiulong, Nian Junting pointed at a chair nearby with his chin. He didn’t plan to stand up and greet him.
