On the other side, Li Li was already dumbfounded.
"Daughter, I rewarded you with a house in Kyoto plus ten million; isn't that practical enough?"
"In your heart, what exactly counts as practical?"
Housing prices in Kyoto were very expensive.
And could a house gifted by your old man be ordinary?
It would definitely be near your school and worth over ten million.
Just then, Li Li's secretary walked in.
"Xiao Zhang, let me ask you something. Do you think a house in Kyoto plus a ten million red envelope is practical?"
Not really understanding the thoughts of young people, Li Li decided to ask Xiao Zhang.
"President Li, how is that not practical? I'd be moved to tears if my dad bought me even one in the suburbs."
"In our country, how many parents can afford a house in downtown Kyoto? Not many can offer such a practical reward."
Zhang Yan was already stunned by what she heard.
If only she had a father like this.
"See? But my daughter doesn't care for it." Li Li rubbed his temples.
Zhang Yan said speechlessly, "She doesn't like this graduation gift you gave?"
Li Li sighed, "Yeah, she said I'm not being practical."
Zhang Yan: "Is this the life of the wealthy? A twenty-million gift isn't practical? How am I supposed to live when I have to struggle for my own house and car?"
Li Li continued chatting with his daughter.
"From your tone, it sounds like you have quite a bit of money now."
Li Sitong: "Of course! This young lady is already a multimillionaire, and I've already started a new round of investment."
Li Sitong: "If my assets after this round of investment are finished, you might be shocked."
She showed off to her father with an air of triumph.
Li Li asked in confusion, "What did you guys invest in now? I'm telling you, our family isn't short on money. You just need to focus on your career; leave the money-making to your dad! Why are you investing?"
Li Sitong sighed, "I can't help it; who told my Boyfriend to be so outstanding? This time, we've invested in garlic Futures."
Li Li was stunned upon hearing about Ye Chen.
"Daughter, you're playing with Futures? You're too bold; even your old man doesn't dare touch those."
"Is that something you kids can play with?"
"With even a slight price fluctuation, you'll lose everything."
Hearing that his daughter was actually playing with Futures, Li Li immediately became anxious.
Futures—that thing devours people without even spitting out the bones.
So many people want to rely on Futures to get rich overnight, only to end up losing everything.
To put it bluntly, that thing is a slaughterhouse for capital giants.
Ordinary retail investors going in are just giving people money.
Li Li had been in business for so many years and didn't dare touch Futures; he didn't expect his daughter to actually start playing with them.
Now, Li Li finally realized that since she started following Ye Chen, his daughter had become bolder and bolder.
Li Sitong continued, "The garlic Futures we bought yesterday... that very night, a heavy rainstorm hit the garlic storage warehouses, and the garlic was all soaked."
Li Sitong said triumphantly, "Dad, when something goes wrong with the garlic storage warehouses, how do you think the international price of garlic will fluctuate?"
"Haha, are you impressed? My Boyfriend is just that amazing."
"While others were still lamenting how damn big the rain was, my Boyfriend had already seized the opportunity to make a fortune."
"This vision, this business mind—Old Man, are you scared? Are you impressed?"
Li Li: "Are you telling the truth?"
Hearing this news, Li Li stood up abruptly... He hurriedly opened his computer to browse the news.
Sure enough, the flooding of the garlic storage warehouses was already in the news headlines.
With the garlic soaked, Li Li knew exactly what kind of chain reaction it would cause in the Futures market tomorrow.
This was the rhythm of making a massive profit.
Li Li couldn't help but ask, "Daughter, what price did you buy in at, and how much did you buy? Did you use leverage?"
Li Sitong: "Ye Chen and I bought in at 0.30. We each bought ten million worth, with twenty times leverage."
Li Li sucked in a breath of cold air.
"My goodness, this little Boyfriend of yours is really too bold, daring to play with twenty times leverage."
Li Sitong: "Of course. My Boyfriend's vision is something ordinary people can't compare to. The one million in pocket money you gave me—how long has it even been, and it's already flipped more than ten times."
Li Li: "Fine, I give in, okay? Your Boyfriend is amazing; your Boyfriend is the most badass."
It had to be said that Li Li truly admired Ye Chen's investment vision.
With this wave, his daughter was definitely going to make a killing.
Twenty times leverage!
There really weren't many people with that kind of guts.
Tsk tsk, with twenty times leverage and such favorable conditions, the capital could double or triple; reaching a hundred million was very possible!"
Thinking about his daughter suddenly having a hundred million USD, Li Li felt out of sorts.
Although he also had hundreds of millions of USD, his daughter was only eighteen and had just graduated from High School.
To earn a hundred million—and in USD—at this age.
Li Li felt that his own life had been on easy mode and was already quite badass.
But compared to his daughter, it was simply too miserable to look at.
When he graduated from High School, he didn't even have ten bucks in his pocket.
Are young people nowadays already this badass?
No wonder his daughter looked down on houses and cash.
One must know that with this operation, the two of them could likely earn several hundred million chinese yuan.
Most importantly, he had given his daughter a one million private stash, and it had only been a few months.
Li Li felt like his outlook on life was about to collapse.
At this time, Ye Chen woke up from his sleep.
He opened his eyes and saw Li Sitong looking at him with a smile.
"Did I fall asleep?"
Li Sitong nodded, "Mm, you slept very soundly."
"Let's go back to the Hot Pot Restaurant. I expect Yingluo and the others should be back too."
Ye Chen didn't know how many thoughts Li Sitong had during the time he was asleep.
She had even wanted to steal a kiss from Ye Chen.
Just as she was about to act, Ye Chen woke up.
Ye Chen got up from Li Sitong.
As Li Sitong stood up, her legs suddenly went numb.
"Oh!"
Unable to stand steadily, Li Sitong fell directly into Ye Chen's arms.
Just then, Yu Weiwei and a few classmates happened to pass by, planning to eat Hot Pot, and ended up getting another mouthful of dog food.
"Si Tong, you guys are being too blatant."
Seeing the two of them embracing, Yu Weiwei couldn't help but cry out.
She even pointedly winked at Li Sitong.
Signalling that there were people nearby and they should be careful.
"Holy crap, the school flower and School Heartthrob really are dating."
"They're even hugging; it's so romantic."
"I told you, the relationship between Ye Chen and Li Sitong is definitely not ordinary. Now you all believe it, right?"
The classmates standing behind Yu Weiwei all started jeering.
"Oh, you've misunderstood. My legs just went numb, and when Ye Chen tried to support me, I fell into his arms."
Li Sitong's pretty face turned red as she explained in a low voice.
If it were just Yu Weiwei, Li Sitong wouldn't need to explain at all.
After all, Yu Weiwei was already used to such things.
But there were other classmates after all.
"Alright, Si Tong, stop explaining. I saw the School Heartthrob lying on your lap from far away."
"Exactly, you've graduated from High School; love is free!"
"Don't worry, we definitely won't talk nonsense."
Seeing Li Sitong's explanation, everyone couldn't help but tease her.
