People in the alley: A woman dressed as a man shouldn't be foolishly filial, Zhuang Chaoying

Suzhou Railway Station is bustling with people.

On the platform, Xiaoting stood there quietly. "Lin Dongzhe, I'm waiting for you. You must try your best to return to Shanghai."

Lin Dongzhe held his luggage tightly in one hand and held Xiaoting's hand tightly in the other, unwilling to let go for a long time.

Getting a job at a foreign company is an opportunity that countless graduates dream of, but at this moment, the thought of being separated from Xiaoting makes his heart clench.

Xiaoting is so outstanding, surrounded by many male classmates and seniors who like her. What if someone with ill intentions takes advantage of the situation if I leave?

Xiaoting noticed his hesitation and worry, and persuaded him to seize this rare opportunity. She also told him firmly that she would always be waiting for him to return in Shanghai.

Lin Dongzhe looked at Xiaoting with a serious expression and deep affection.

"Xiaoting, you must wait for me. A year of internship will pass quickly. You can't get too close to other male classmates. You must remember that you are my girlfriend. I will marry you when I come back. Xiaoting, you must wait for me."

Xiaoting trusts Lin Dongzhe completely. She knows that the two love each other, and perhaps this short separation will be a catalyst for their relationship to grow stronger.

"Lin Dongzhe, you also need to remember that you are my boyfriend. Don't get too close to other female colleagues. If I find out, you can expect to be punished by family law."

After saying that, she reached out and hugged Lin Dongzhe tightly, their necks intertwined, and she whispered in his ear.

"I'll wait for you to come back and marry me. The deadline is three years. If you don't come back by then, I won't wait any longer." Those words pierced Lin Dongzhe's heart, making him even more determined to protect this relationship.

Lin Dongzhe murmured in response, his voice choked with emotion. "Wait for me, wait for me."

Then, Lin Dongzhe picked up his luggage and slowly boarded the train.

He quickly found a seat, put his luggage away, and eagerly opened the window. "Zhuang Xiaoting, wait for me to come back!" he shouted.

The train slowly started moving, clattering along.

Xiaoting could no longer hold back the tears welling up in her eyes. She subconsciously chased after the train, her steps quickening as if she wanted to hold onto the receding figure.

The train sped up, and Xiaoting ran faster and faster, her tears blown away by the wind.

Lin Dongzhe, inside the car window, waved frantically and shouted at the top of his lungs.

His heart clenched with worry, fearing that Xiaoting would get hurt chasing the train. "Xiaoting, stop chasing! You'll fall!"

Finally, the train sped away, and Lin Dongzhe could no longer see Xiaoting's shadow.

He slowly sat back down, wiping away the tears that kept flowing with his sleeve, which dripped onto the back of his hand.

On the platform of Suzhou Railway Station, Song Ying and Huang Ling felt heartbroken to see Xiao Ting so upset, so they rushed over and hugged her tightly.

Song Ying gently stroked Xiao Ting's hair. "It's all this little rascal's fault. Don't worry, Xiao Ting, if Lin Dongzhe doesn't come back, Aunt Song will do what you did when you were little: even if it means going to Guangcheng, I'll drag him back."

Huang Ling silently took out a handkerchief and wiped away her daughter's tears.

"Mom, Aunt Song, I'm fine now. I just lost control of my emotions. Let's go home."

So the two of them took Xiaoting's arms, one on each side, and said in unison, "Let's go home!"

The correspondence between the two filled one drawer of Xiaoting's dormitory desk that year. One letter a week was agreed upon by the two of them. During Xiaoting's winter vacation, her parents and Uncle Lin and Aunt Song went to Guangcheng on a business trip. In reality, they used the business trip as an excuse to take his wife on a trip.

She followed them and met Lin Dongzhe, whom she hadn't seen for six months.

.......

Vacuum electronics has only been around for a little over a year.

Starting at NT$365 per share, it soared all the way up, becoming the first stock to break through NT$1,000 per share.

In the early summer of 1992, the stock market's heat, like the gradually rising temperature, continued to climb, captivating the hearts of countless investors.

At this moment, in the Brunner Mond Company on the 28th floor of the Union Building, Pengfei was sitting at his workstation, surrounded by his busy colleagues.

He picked up the phone and dialed Lin Dongzhe's number, who was far away in Guangcheng.

Working at this foreign firm, Pengfei's salary and benefits continued to rise thanks to his outstanding abilities.

It started at 1,000 yuan per month and has now increased to 3,000 yuan.

Last year's year-end bonus, in particular, was a whopping 25,000 yuan.

He invested all his money in the stock market.

With the money in hand, Pengfei took out 30,000 yuan and bought two small two-bedroom apartments of less than 60 square meters near his workplace.

The total price of the house is 86,000 yuan, the down payment is 15,000 yuan, the loan is 66,000 yuan, the loan term is 20 years, and the monthly payment is less than 400 yuan.

The other house is in a similar situation, with monthly mortgage payments of less than 400 yuan.

In this way, one of the apartments can be used for parents to stay when they come to Shanghai in the future, while the other can be rented out to create an additional source of income.

"Hello, this is Baojie Company!"

"Hello, I'm looking for Lin Dongzhe from the internship group. I'm his cousin, Xiang Pengfei."

Soon, Lin Dongzhe's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey, Pengfei, what brings you to call me? Wait, did something happen to Xiaoting?!"

"No, what are you thinking? Xiaoting is fine. Is Xiaoting all you can think about? I called you about stocks. I think the price is right now. In early May, they changed the T+1 mechanism to T+0, which means buying and selling on the same day, and there are no restrictions on price fluctuations. I'm not optimistic about this. The price has risen too fast, and I'm a little worried. It has already risen from 1,944 to 2,345."

After a moment's thought, Lin Dongzhe on the other end of the phone asked, "Are you planning to sell?"

Pengfei's tone was firm. "Yes, I plan to clear it out."

“My stocks are with you. Can you manage them for me? All the money will be deposited into Xiaoting’s account.”

After Pengfei received Lin Dongzhe's affirmative reply, the topic returned to the present.

"You've got a conscience, kid. My sister's wait for you this past year wasn't in vain. By the way, your internship is ending in a few months, right? Are you sure you can come back to Shanghai?"

Lin Dongzhe couldn't hide his excitement. "My boss talked to me today, saying I performed exceptionally well, and since I had also requested to return to the Shanghai branch, they agreed to let me go back to Shanghai!"

"That's great! Did you tell Xiaoting the news?"

"I was just about to say something when your call came."

After hanging up the phone, Pengfei immediately contacted Tu Nan.

That day, the two of them went to the stock exchange together.

Pengfei and Tunan weaved through the crowd and successfully sold all the stocks held by the three of them.

The initial purchase price was 365 yuan, and the current sale price is 2,345 yuan. The total proceeds from this transaction amount to 1,974,490 yuan, which averages out to over 650,000 yuan per person.
