Chapter 26
Scumbag?
Shen Shuyi was also Zhao Ruoshuang’s best friend and the first friend she had made since coming from the Guang Province.
The two of them were usually very close and would go shopping together when they had time.
After the bet between Zhao Ruoshuang and Luo Chen, she had determined that Luo Chen was a rich second-generation heir who refused to learn from people.
The current situation must be that this rich second-generation heir was lying to her best friend. She had to make a move!
“No, I have to calm down. I can’t go over directly.”
Zhao Ruoshuang was about to get up when she sat back down.
This was because she knew that when women were in a relationship, their intelligence was usually diminished. If she went over and asked Shen Shuyi to stay away from Luo Chen, not only would she not succeed, but it would also have the opposite effect.
As for bad mouthing others behind their backs, that was even more impossible.
This was because if she said something wrong, Shen Shuyi might misunderstand her. At that time, the two of them might not even be able to be friends anymore.
Just as Zhao Ruoshuang was having a headache, she suddenly thought of something.
That was, her best friend liked career-minded people who were especially outstanding in all aspects.
Obviously, Luo Chen was just a rich second-generation heir. The reason why the two of them sat together was very likely because Luo Chen was pretending to be smart.
Moreover, her best friend rarely interacted with men so she must have been deceived by this scumbag.
If she wanted the two of them to be separated, she only had to expose Luo Chen’s incompetence and shatter his image. Her best friend would definitely be very disappointed, but she would naturally not contact him again!
Thinking of this, Zhao Ruoshuang was filled with confidence. Then, she pretended that nothing had happened and walked over.
“Boss, a cup of iced milk tea!”
Zhao Ruoshuang deliberately walked close to Shen Shuyi before speaking.
Hearing the familiar voice, Shen Shuyi subconsciously turned around.
“Ruoshuang! Why are you here?”
Shen Shuyi was also very happy to see her best friend.
Because they had been busy with real estate previously, the two of them had not seen each other for a long time.
“Eh? What a coincidence, Shuyi. You’re here too.”
Zhao Ruoshuang pretended to be surprised and greeted her. Then, she looked at Luo Chen and said,
“Yo, Vice President Luo, I didn’t expect you to be here too. Do you still remember our bet? According to the news, Cadabra will be listed today.”
Luo Chen nodded. “That’s right. Tonight, the first e-commerce king in history will be born.”
“Hmph.” Hearing this, Zhao Ruoshuang had a disdainful expression.
According to the previous information, there was an 80% chance that Cadabra’s stocks would hit rock bottom after being listed today!
“Ruoshuang, what are you two talking about?”
Shen Shuyi was also confused.
What bet? What e-commerce king?
Zhao Ruoshuang took the opportunity to sit beside Shen Shuyi and said, “You don’t know yet, right? On Vice President Luo’s first day of work…”
Other than the bet between the two of them, Zhao Ruoshuang also mentioned how arrogant Luo Chen’s choice was.
She even talked about the shortcomings of the Cadabra company.
Zhao Ruoshuang’s goal was very simple. She wanted Shen Shuyi to know that Luo Chen was an arrogant and brainless person.
She thought that after saying that, Shen Shuyi would stand on her side.
However, she did not expect Shen Shu to say without hesitation, “I think Luo Chen has his reasons for doing this. Moreover, the investment this time might not be a loss.”
“How can it not be a loss? This company has too many shortcomings!”
Zhao Ruoshuang said in disbelief.
Her best friend had always had a good taste in business. How could she not see the flaws of Cardabra?
Shen Shuyi continued, “From what you said, there are indeed many shortcomings, but the fact that Luo Chen is willing to invest proves that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Ruoshuang, you might lose this bet.”
After a long time of interaction, Shen Shuyi did not doubt Luo Chen’s ability at all.
“???”
Zhao Ruoshuang was stunned.
Could her best friend have been bewitched by Luo Chen?
Zhao Ruoshuang looked at Luo Chen coldly, her determination to keep him away from Shen Shuyi grew even stronger.
It was all because she felt that Luo Chen was too good at fooling people!
When Luo Chen felt Zhao Ruoshuang’s gaze, he only shrugged.
He finally understood that Zhao Ruoshuang did not come by coincidence at all. She came on purpose.
As they spoke, Luo Chen learned that the two of them were best friends. If he was not wrong, Zhao Ruoshuang must have thought that he was lying to Shen Shuyi, which was why she was like this now.
“Hello, audience. This is the finance channel. We will provide you with the latest news of today’s stock market!”
Just as the atmosphere was a little awkward, a sound suddenly came from the television hanging in the hall.
The boss of this shop usually paid a lot of attention to the stock market, so he would watch it on time every day.
Most of the people who came to this restaurant were from the Guang Province. They all liked to invest, so they paid attention to the content on television.
“Shuyi! Hurry up and watch the television. You’ll probably see the news of Catabra’s launch later!”
Zhao Ruoshuang was a little excited.
If her best friend did not believe her words, she could only use reality to slap her face!
“Alright, why are you so excited?”
Shen Shuyi was also looking forward to it.
After all, Zhao Ruoshuang’s analysis of Cadabra was very poor. She wanted to see if a miracle would happen again to prove that Luo Chen was right.
Luo Chen also picked up a cup of milk tea and watched the television.
“Imperial Group’s stocks have plummeted because of poor management. Now, our stockholder friends are suffering…”
In the beginning, most of the content introduced on the show was about large corporations. Those that had just been listed would usually be placed at the back.
“As for Azure Dragon Technology, we learned that it’s essentially a paper company that has already disappeared. The Security Bureau has already intervened. I advise all stockholders and friends to be careful in investing…”
“How could this be!”
Zhao Ruoshuang’s face was filled with disbelief.
Azure Dragon Technology was the company she had invested in back then!
At that time, she had even vowed that she would definitely earn money. She did not expect the company owners to run away.
She looked at Luo Chen opposite her.
At that time, Luo Chen had advised her more than once not to invest in them. Zhao Ruoshuang was a little puzzled. How did Luo Chen know that there was something wrong with this technology company?
“Ruoshuang, what’s wrong?”
Shen Shuyi also felt that something was wrong with Zhao Ruoshuang and hurriedly asked.
“I was tricked.”
Zhao Ruoshuang shook her head and briefly explained what had happened.
After hearing that, Shen Shuyi comforted her. “Ruoshuang, you don’t have to be so sad. Everyone makes mistakes. Just listen to Luo Chen’s suggestions more next time.”
Hearing this, Zhao Ruoshuang became even more unhappy. “Perhaps it’s just a coincidence. In any case, I didn’t invest much. I’ll just earn it back in the future.”
Luo Chen said, “President Zhao, it’s better not to be so arrogant. Investments can never be based on data and documents. Most importantly, you have to go on a field trip. As for an inspection, you have to either go yourself or find a trusted aide. Otherwise, the other company will just blind your judgements with some short term benefits.”
