Seeing that Luo Yusheng's expression didn't seem like he was joking, Luo Zhengdong also made a serious promise: "Okay, Dad promises you, I will definitely come back."

The next morning, when Luo Yusheng got up, she heard the sound of a car starting up downstairs.

Luo Zhengdong has already set off.

Last night, he repeatedly promised that he would definitely be back before Saturday.

After washing up, Luo Yusheng went to the restaurant for breakfast.

I had only taken a few bites when I received a call from Wei Xue.

"Sheng Sheng, are you free today?"

Let's go for a walk together.

Luo Yusheng gripped her phone tightly: "I..."

He had barely uttered a word when Wei Xue interrupted him on the other end of the phone: "You've finally finished your exams, you should come out and relax!"

"It's decided then. See you at Times Square at 12 o'clock!"

Wei Xue was in high spirits, and Luo Yusheng, seeing that she couldn't refuse, had no choice but to agree.

She went upstairs to change into some light and comfortable clothes, preparing to have the driver take her to the agreed-upon location.

Just as she stepped out the door, she caught a glimpse of Ji Tingxiao standing outside the Luo family's gate.

She thought that after rejecting Ji Tingxiao's marriage proposal yesterday, she would never see him again.

After all, Ji Tingxiao is such a proud person, he definitely wouldn't lower himself to come looking for her again.

Seeing her come out, Ji Tingxiao looked apologetic: "Sheng Sheng, I'm sorry, I was too impulsive yesterday."

"I didn't think things through and proposed without asking for your opinion beforehand, which scared you."

"Please forgive me this time, I hope you will be magnanimous and not hold a grudge."

Luo Yusheng couldn't help but laugh to herself after hearing this.

She saw right through Ji Tingxiao's scheme.

He really knows how to manipulate himself; he's still making excuses for why he rejected him.

Luo Yusheng asked impatiently, "Is there anything else?"

Even after the apology was given, Ji Tingxiao remained standing there like a block of wood, blocking the way.

"Are you going out? Where are you going?" Ji Tingxiao saw through her intention and quickly asked.

Luo Yusheng said with a stern face, "Go find Wei Xue."

Upon hearing this, Ji Tingxiao took her handbag and said, "Sheng Sheng, I'll go with you."

"I can also help you carry your things."

His eagerness surprised Luo Yusheng.

Ji Tingxiao's attitude has now completely changed.

He used to be incredibly aloof, valuing his reputation above all else; he would never do something like this.

She thought for a few seconds, her brows furrowing.

What on earth does he want to do?

Luo Yusheng wanted to refuse, but Ji Tingxiao was like a leech, impossible to shake off.

When the two arrived at Times Square, Wei Xue was already waiting by the roadside.

The surprise on her face was obvious when she saw Ji Tingxiao.

"Yusheng, why are you with him?"

Luo Yusheng shrugged: "He insisted on coming along."

Wei Xue nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and took her arm: "Let's go."

Throughout the journey, Ji Tingxiao acted as the bag carrier, quietly listening to the two talk without interrupting.

Just as Wei Xue was enthusiastically mentioning Kyoto, Ji Tingxiao appeared out from behind at just the right moment.

"The situation in Kyoto is quite serious right now, with many high-ranking officials and nobles engaged in open and covert struggles."

"And the stock market, I've recently taken a liking to a stock. If I could invest some money in it, I'm sure I'd make a fortune."

Upon hearing this, Ji Tingxiao began to speak eloquently.

Not only does he analyze the situation in Kyoto from time to time, but he also constantly demonstrates his investment skills.

Luo Yusheng, who was listening from the side, almost rolled her eyes.

After spending so many years with Ji Tingxiao, doesn't she understand his personality?

But Wei Xue was very interested in it.

"I didn't expect you to know so much about this. You're sure to achieve great things after graduating from university!"

Each compliment made Ji Tingxiao overjoyed.

He lowered his head and said modestly, "Miss Wei, you flatter me. I was just interested and did some research on it for a while."

"I will continue to pursue this hobby in the future."

"But in this small city, I'm nothing special..."

Upon hearing this, Wei Xue kindly offered some words of comfort: "Don't underestimate yourself. I heard that your grades are quite good."

"As long as you can get into a good university, you won't have to worry about not having a place to use your talents."

Hearing this, Luo Yusheng suddenly understood why Ji Tingxiao insisted on following along.

He wanted to establish a connection with Wei Xue before going to Kyoto, so that he wouldn't have to worry about his future.

Wei Xue and Luo Yusheng chatted and laughed all the way, occasionally turning their heads to ask Ji Tingxiao about business matters.

Ji Tingxiao then poured out all the knowledge he had in his mind.

"Both the Chen and Xu families have great potential."

"Trust me, as long as you buy, you'll definitely double your money!"

"And the Zhang family's one, just wait patiently for a while longer, it definitely won't disappoint you."

Wei Xue fixed her gaze on him, her eyes half-closed, seemingly lost in thought: "Really? But I heard that someone who listened to your advice lost out."
