Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

Li Xiaofeng glanced at Cheng Zhiyuan, whose face was somewhat gloomy.

The second brother has been working for Cao Jinpeng for many years and has always received a guaranteed return on his investment. Do you, the fourth brother, still want to make money off him?

Cheng Zhiyuan seemed to realize the problem as well, but he didn't say anything.

From his perspective, Boss Cao had already agreed to let him withdraw his shares last time, and even gave him an extra 100,000 yuan, but he didn't agree. If he were to withdraw his shares now, the best outcome would be to get 500,000 yuan.

In that case, it would have been better to withdraw your shares earlier!

This time, Li Xiaofeng did not speak up for him.

Knowing when to cut your losses is an essential lesson for any businessperson. It's better to learn it sooner rather than later. Besides, my relationship with Cheng Zhiyuan isn't close enough for me to act as his mother.

As time passed and the days went by, Li Xiaofeng's money continued to dwindle, and housing prices finally began to rise slowly.

However, housing prices did not rise much, only about 10% higher than last year. In addition, the price he paid for the house last year was relatively low. In total, his net worth increased by about 20 million.

He went to the bank to inquire, and based on his current asset-liability ratio, he was in the category of those who could be granted a loan but not necessarily, and there was a high probability that his application would not be approved.

So he asked Liu Qianqian for help, asking her to ask her cousin for a loan; otherwise, he would have no choice but to start selling his assets to alleviate the pressure.

However, in this day and age, it's a buyer's market, and most people are waiting for demolition compensation, so houses aren't easy to sell. What's more, the office building he has is even harder to sell.

The hotter the housing market, the more people buy, and the easier it is to sell.

However, opportunities to make money that everyone knows about are no longer opportunities. Once the housing market heats up, people will have to queue up for lotteries and sell houses at inflated prices.

"Okay, I can introduce you to my cousin, but I can't guarantee she can help you get a loan!"

Liu Qianqian wore a calm and collected smile, and Li Xiaofeng quickly said gratefully, "Don't worry, I definitely won't treat you unfairly after it's done!"

"That's not necessary. Just don't forget to invest in us if you manage to secure funding!"

"To be honest, after learning about your project over this period of time, I am quite interested in it. However, I think we may need to make some adjustments to the company structure and personnel composition."

Of course, it's too early to say all this now. We'll talk about it properly after I get the bank loan!

Liu Qianqian asked with some confusion, "Is it just the two of us talking? Shouldn't we all sit down and talk together?"

"I'll talk to you first, then I'll talk to others!"

Liu Qianqian still asked with some unease, "You're not going to come to a hotel with me to talk, are you?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said, "My dear Liu, what do you take me for? How about this, you choose the place to talk, and I'll pay the bill, okay?"

"It seems I misunderstood you!"

"It was just a misunderstanding. You're making it sound like I've never seen a woman before. My girlfriend's figure and looks are no worse than yours, okay?"

Besides, I'm not bad either. I'm 1.78 meters tall and handsome. I was chosen by the school beauty based on my own merit; I'm more than good enough for you!

Liu Qianqian asked with a grin, "Didn't Jiang Xueying already break up with you? Now she's gone to find her childhood sweetheart, why are you still shamelessly claiming she's your girlfriend?"

"It's not that I'm clinging to her, it's that she's clinging to me, okay? A woman I've trained, how could she forget me so easily!"

"You're shameless!"

Even though she was used to being the center of attention by men, Liu Qianqian's face was flushed at this moment.

"It's not easy for a man to live, let alone to live well. What's the point of having any shame? How much does a pound cost? Can it fill your stomach?"

"I think you're bragging, but I have no proof!"

Just then, Li Xiaofeng's phone rang. He looked at it and saw that it was Jiang Xueying calling.

"Here's your evidence!"

After saying that, Li Xiaofeng answered the phone.

"Hey, now? No, I'm busy right now, let's do it tonight!"

"I have something important to do, really important, I need to ask someone to help me get a loan!"

"Okay, okay, that's all for now. I'll talk to you later, see you tonight!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaofeng looked at her with a smug expression, a half-smile on his face.

"Look at your smug face, Jiang Xueying must be blind to have fallen for someone like you!"

"So what if you've taken a liking to me? What's wrong with me?"

Liu Qianqian turned her head away with an annoyed look and said, "You're not allowed to go and do anything bad to Jiang Xueying tonight. If you go to her, I won't introduce you to my cousin."

"If I don't go to Xueying, how will my needs be met?"

"Hold it in, you filthy men! When you're with a woman, you don't think about anything else but those filthy things. It's disgusting to even hear about them!"

"That won't do. What if you get sick from holding it in?"

"Come on, so many guys don't even have girlfriends, and you never see them get sick!"

Li Xiaofeng said with a smile, "Who said they weren't sick? Those guys who used to swarm around you like flies, including Cao, the eldest in our dorm, what do you think they are if not sick?"

The reason I didn't join them in surrounding you is because my needs were met; there was no need for me to drool over you like a hyena on the African savanna!

Liu Qianqian picked up her chopsticks, looking as if she was about to stab Li Xiaofeng to death.

Li Xiaofeng laughed and dodged, giving her a smug look that said, "You can't hit me."

"Anyway, you're not allowed to go see her!"

"If I don't look for her, do you expect me to look for you?!"

Li Xiaofeng scrutinized Liu Qianqian with a scrutinizing gaze, pinched his chin with one hand, nodded and said, "You're talking nonsense again. It's not that it's impossible. You, the school beauty Liu, are quite good!"

Liu Qianqian's face immediately turned bright red, and she spat at him lightly: "Pah, I knew it, you men are all the same! If I find out you went to see Jiang Xueying again, you're dead!"

"Okay, okay, I won't go, alright?"

Li Xiaofeng verbally agreed, but after finishing his meal, he turned around and went to find Jiang Xueying.

Just because you say I can't go doesn't mean I won't go. I'm not your lapdog, why should I listen to you so much?

Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine.

After dinner, he would go shopping with beautiful women and then do some exercise. That's the kind of life a man should live. Even without Jiang Xueying, he would have dragged Fang Huiya over anyway.

Those who know, know. Dating is just a means; exercise is the goal!

Life is about movement!
