Zhao Yulu said, “You shouldn’t doubt me. When I say it will fall, it’s not my own judgment. It’s an analysis given by a senior analyst at my friend’s investment company. Their accuracy is very high.”
Xu Yang replied, “I only believe in my judgment. I believe you didn’t just call me to persuade me not to buy gold futures, just say what you want.”
Zhao Yulu continued, “I want you to lend me the two million yuan. I have a great investment project that can make a lot of money quickly, within three months at most. I can give you five hundred thousand yuan as interest. How about that?”
Xu Yang responded, “Not interested. I’m buying gold futures, and I know I could earn many five hundred thousand yuan.”
Zhao Yulu angrily retorted, “Why don’t you listen to reason? I’ve already said that gold futures will drop. Your money will go to waste. If you sell it now, even if it’s a small loss, it’s better than losing everything. I’m telling you for your own good, don’t you understand?”
Xu Yang said, “Sorry, I don’t need it. I believe gold futures will rise, and they definitely will. If you don’t have anything else to say, I’m hanging up. I’m very busy.”
With that, Xu Yang ended the call without further ado.
“Jerk!” Zhao Yulu clenched her teeth in frustration.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhao Yulu dialed Zhao Yuxin’s phone number. The call connected quickly.
Zhao Yulu immediately said, “Yuxin, Xu Yang told me he already bought gold futures. I tried to advise him to sell, but he didn’t listen. Can you talk to him and persuade him?”
Zhao Yuxin responded, “If he bought it, he bought it. I trust him.”
Zhao Yulu couldn’t believe it and said, “Yuxin, let me be honest with you. The person who you saw with me when you were shopping that day, his father is the CEO of an investment company. The senior analyst at the investment company said that gold futures will fall. If you don’t make Xu Yang sell the gold futures, you won’t have a penny left! Your dad’s hard-earned money for your down payment on the house will be wasted. Are you really willing to see your dad’s hard-earned money vanish like that?”
Hearing that, Zhao Yuxin hesitated for a moment, then said, “I believe in Xu Yang. He won’t be wrong.”
In truth, Zhao Yuxin wasn’t believing in Xu Yang’s judgment of the futures market. She believed in his character and his responsible attitude toward life. If Xu Yang wasn’t confident, he wouldn’t have invested so much money in gold futures.
Though Zhao Yuxin didn’t understand why Xu Yang was so certain about the rise in gold futures prices in the ever-changing market, she was still willing to trust him.
“Yuxin, you’re really too blindly trusting. Can’t you have your own opinion? I really don’t understand what you’re thinking. Is Xu Yang really that good? Is he really that worthy of your trust?” Zhao Yulu exclaimed in frustration.
Zhao Yuxin responded calmly, “Xu Yang is that good, and he is worthy of my trust. Leaving him was your biggest mistake. Of course, I also have to thank you. If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be together with him.”
Zhao Yulu was beyond frustrated, taking a deep breath before saying, “Fine, I realize I can’t reason with you. Whenever I mention him, you get defensive. I’m truly looking out for your best interests. Selling the gold futures would prevent your dad’s hard-earned money from going to waste. Can’t you bear to see all of it disappear?”
Realizing that reasoning wasn’t working, Zhao Yulu decided to approach the situation from her father’s perspective.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yuxin wasn’t moved by Zhao Yulu’s approach, saying, “You don’t need to say anymore. I won’t make him sell. Like I said, I trust him.”
While Zhao Yuxin didn’t want her father’s hard-earned money for the down payment to go to waste, she also had faith in Xu Yang. In her eyes, even if they incurred losses, it wouldn’t be a big deal. At most, it would delay their plans to buy a house for a few years. Her father wouldn’t blame her for that.
“You’re really driving me crazy!” Zhao Yulu shouted.
Feeling that communication was futile, Zhao Yulu hung up the phone helplessly. Her plan to secure the loan wasn’t going to happen.
…
At night, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin sat on the sofa in the living room and watched TV after dinner.
“Honey, how’s the gold futures market?” Zhao Yuxin was still worried, so she asked casually.
“Honey, don’t worry. The price of gold will definitely rise,” Xu Yang said with full confidence.
“Okay, I believe you.” Zhao Yuxin nodded repeatedly. “Today, Yulu kept asking me to ask you to sell it and lend her the money, but I ignored her.”
Xu Yang pinched Zhao Yuxin’s pretty face and said, “Honey, thank you for your trust in me. Don’t worry, I won’t let you down.”
Hearing that, Zhao Yuxin felt very pleased and nodded repeatedly. She said, “Honey, I believe you.”
The next day, the first thing Xu Yang did when he woke up was to check the gold futures’s market.
Last night, Lighthouse International Reserve cut interest rates by 2%, releasing more liquid, far exceeding market expectations. The Merica dollar index plummeted, the price of gold soared, and domestic gold futures rose to the limit!
“Honey, you’re awake,” Zhao Yuxin said as she woke up and went into Xu Yang’s arms.
“Well, let me tell you a piece of good news,” Xu Yang smiled and said.
“What good news?” Zhao Yuxin raised her head and asked.
“The gold futures have reached their limit!” Xu Yang said as he placed the phone in front of Zhao Yuxin and signaled her to look at the futures trading software on the phone.
“Really?” Zhao Yuxin’s eyes widened. When she saw that the gold futures price had indeed gone up, she couldn’t help but be filled with joy. “Honey, you’re amazing!”
Zhao Yuxin couldn’t help but kiss Xu Yang on the cheek.
“I told you, I won’t let you down.”Xu Yang smiled.
Xu Yang had never been worried. The reason why he checked the price of gold after waking up was to eliminate Zhao Yuxin’s worries as soon as possible.
Zhao Yuxin would be lying if she said that she wasn’t worried. After all, the two million that she gave Xu Yang was saved up by Zhao Hai with great effort. It was the down payment for her future house. If she lost, she would probably cry. Now, she didn’t have to worry anymore.
“Yes, Honey. I believe you!” said Zhao Yuxin. Her smile became brighter.
The truth was indeed as Xu Yang had guessed. Although Zhao Yuxin trusted Xu Yang, she was worried. After all, that was the money her father had painstakingly saved up.
The two of them cuddled for a while before getting up. During breakfast, Zhao Yuxin said, “Honey, Junyi called last night and said that he would treat us to dinner tonight.”
Lin Junyi gave Zhao Yuxin a call last night and informed them about the dinner.
“Don’t worry, I won’t forget,” said Xu Yang.
After work, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin went to the private restaurant that Lin Junyi had mentioned. They entered a private room and saw Lin Junyi was already waiting there.
“Junyi.” Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin greeted in unison.
“Hey, you guys are here. Have a seat.” Lin Junyi gestured for them to sit down.
“Junyi, did you invite us for dinner tonight because you have good news to share?” Zhao Yuxin asked as they took their seats.
“Not really good news, just to have a chat. You two are together now, and I haven’t treated you to a meal alone before. Consider this dinner a celebration of your relationship,” Lin Junyi said with a smile.
