"Yuan, you're a god! I want to have your babies!"
"That stock you mentioned really surged."
"Get lost. Do you even have the right parts for that?" Li Yuan chided good-naturedly. "How much did it go up today?"
"It went up another 15% today, for a net profit of 6,000 yuan," Xu Zhi replied, overjoyed.
"Dazhi, didn't you say you only had 10,000 yuan of your private savings? How did you earn so much?" Li Yuan asked, puzzled.
"Well, Yuan," Xu Zhi explained sheepishly, "I, uh, came up with all sorts of excuses to get more money from my family. Then I borrowed some from friends and scraped together a bit more. I put it all into that stock."
Li Yuan was slightly shocked. Xu Zhi is pretty bold, huh? He went all in just based on my word?
"Dazhi, how did you convince your parents? And you've got some serious nerve. Aren't you afraid of losing it all?"
"UHH... it's too embarrassing. I'm not telling you," Xu Zhi stammered, finding it hard to speak.
