After being reborn, I refused to be a sucker, and my whole family was dumbfounded.

Chapter 244

Su Jianhong looked helpless.

On one side was his old comrade-in-arms in the business world, and on the other side was his daughter.

He couldn't say anything either.

Su Qingyan frowned deeply, her anger rising: "Then what can we do now? Sell all the stocks we have?"

"If any of you want to withdraw, feel free to come to me. I will return your investment to you at the current stock price."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent again.

If we withdraw now, everyone will lose everything, even their underwear.

Originally, I invested ten million, but now I can only get back less than two million.

Who would willingly give up now?

Seeing everyone's silence, Su Qingyan snorted coldly: "That's right. Since you all want to gamble and wait for Xinhe Salt Lake's stock price to rebound, why do you all question me and make me bear your pressure?"

"Since everyone wants to wait and gamble, let's work together and pay attention to Xinhe Salt Lake."

"Anyway, according to the information I have so far, all kinds of machinery have arrived at the mining area, and all that's left is the approval from above."

"You probably already know this news, but you're just worried that the approval from higher authorities won't come through."

"Then let's continue to wait and keep an eye on it."

Everyone nodded in agreement; this was the only option at the moment.

After all, they're already stuck with their positions and can't bear to sell, so they can only hope the price will go up.

Su Qingyan slowly said, "Tomorrow night is the mayor's birthday banquet. My dad gave me a spot at the banquet. Lin Ling will most likely be there too. I'll go and sound him out. Please don't worry."

After the meeting.

Su Jianhong asked with a worried look, "Given your current relationship with Lin Ling, do you think he'll tell you the truth?"

"Even if he says prices will continue to rise, can you guarantee he's telling the truth?"

"There's nothing we can do but try to get him to tell us." Su Qingyan's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's right, we can ask Aunt Liu for me."

"I believe he would never lie to Aunt Liu."

“That’s true.” Su Jianhong slapped his thigh. “Then you should go find the director of your orphanage.”

"By the way, take 100,000 yuan with you as a token of our appreciation."

"Oh right... I haven't given Liu Ma the money yet. Lin Ling also paid for her hospital bills." Su Qingyan said with some annoyance, "How could I forget about that?"

"Okay, I'll take it now."

Su Qingyan drove away from the company. Seeing that it was almost lunchtime, she went to a private kitchen to pack some food and then took it to the hospital.

In the hospital, Liu's mother was lying in bed scrolling through her phone.

Xiao Wei was lying on the sofa next to him, scrolling through his phone.

They looked very happy and harmonious.

Su Qingyan came in carrying food and said with a smile, "Aunt Liu, you haven't finished eating yet, have you? I brought you some."

"Oh dear, the hospital provides free dinner, and it's quite delicious. Why did you bring your own food?" Aunt Liu said with a look of concern. "In a wooden box? Did you make it yourself?"

"I bought it outside." Su Qingyan smiled. "Nowadays, many hotel takeout meals are packaged in wooden boxes."

"It's too expensive, too expensive. Can you give me a refund?" Aunt Liu quickly shook her head.

Su Qingyan had already opened the package, and the aroma of the food wafted out.

Xiao Wei jumped up excitedly: "Sister Qingyan, let me help you open it."

"Okay." Su Qingyan smiled and placed a bowl of soup in front of Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu, I'll feed you."

Aunt Liu smiled and nodded: "You and Lin Ling have always been the most sensible since you were little."

After dinner, Su Qingyan took out a file folder and placed it in Liu Ma's hand: "Liu Ma, there is 100,000 yuan in here. It's a small token of my appreciation. Let me know when you've used it all."

“No need, no need. You can use this money to do business. Lin Ling has already made arrangements for the children at the orphanage. They are now living in an apartment and are being taken care of by dedicated staff.” Aunt Liu said proudly, “Lin Ling said that he has already handed over the responsibility to the government and is preparing to rebuild the orphanage.”

"Lin Ling is rich, and the money that Aunt Liu swindled from him is enough."

"Stop talking so much. Just accept it as I tell you to." Su Qingyan said angrily, "Do you think I'm not even as good as Lin Ling?"

Unable to refuse, Aunt Liu had no choice but to accept it.

Seeing that Aunt Liu accepted the gift, Su Qingyan tactfully revealed her purpose: "Aunt Liu, there's something I'd like to ask you."

"Lin Ling and I are having some disagreements right now, so I wanted you to ask him for me."

"Sigh...you child, why don't you just ask him yourself? He won't be that petty." Aunt Liu shook her head and sighed.

"He won't tell me," Su Qingyan said firmly. "He's just that stingy!"

"I tried to be nice to him all afternoon, but he still had a sour look on his face."

"Sigh..." Aunt Liu shook her head and asked, "What is it?"

Su Qingyan said softly, "You absolutely must not say that I asked him. Just subtly ask him about a big project he recently invested in, what its future prospects are, and whether it can make a lot of money."
