Chapter 86 I'm not a good person, but I won't harm everyone I meet.
After Deng Xiuzhen bought the stocks, she was about to leave when Xiao Zheng stopped her and said, "Wait for me!" Then he said to the staff, "Buy two hundred shares like she did for me!"
"Xiao Zheng, you can't buy it like this! I'm telling you, we're going to buy it..."
“I’ll buy it like this! So what? Who are you? Do you think you can tell me what to do?” Xiao Zheng interrupted Dai Wenjun in a hostile tone.
Dai Wenjun wasn't angry. Instead, he said cautiously, "No, no, I wouldn't dare interfere with you. You can decide which stock to buy. I was just being nosy."
"That's more like it!" Xiao Zheng snorted, finished buying the stocks, and turned to pull Deng Xiuzhen aside, saying, "Where do you live? I'll take you home!"
Deng Xiuzhen quickly declined, saying, "Thank you, thank you, but I have other things to do, please go ahead and take care of them."
"What, you're not giving me face?" Xiao Zheng's face turned cold.
Dai Wenjun quickly stepped forward: "What's wrong with you? Xiao Zheng kindly offered to give you a ride, and you're not even appreciating it?!"
This time, Xiao Zheng didn't mention Dai Wenjun, but instead looked coldly at Deng Xiuzhen.
Deng Xiuzhen was panicked and filled with regret. She wished she had been bolder and asked just anyone.
No matter how embarrassing he was, he shouldn't have gotten involved with this woman of unknown origin and put himself in unknown danger.
But there's no going back in life, so she could only calm herself down and muster her courage to say, "Then how about you take me to Zhongguan Road?"
"Where do you live?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"No, I have something to do there." Deng Xiuzhen tried her best to keep her voice from trembling.
"Okay, I'll take you to Zhongguan Road." Xiao Zheng said, and started walking.
Deng Xiuzhen had no choice but to follow.
Dai Wenjun was very attentive in seeing them off. Xiao Zheng told him not to go any further, and he quickly stopped.
Looking at the little golden man car logo, Deng Xiuzhen broke out in a cold sweat. What kind of person had she offended?
“What are you still standing there for? Get on the bus!” Xiao Zheng said.
Deng Xiuzhen stammered, "I...I didn't know how to open the car door."
Xiao Zheng looked up at her, said nothing, opened the passenger door, and let her get in. Then he turned and went to the driver's seat to drive.
"Let's make a deal," said Xiao Zheng.
"Huh?" Deng Xiuzhen was taken aback. She didn't know what kind of deal she could make with this Xiao Zheng.
"You're probably not from around here, are you?" Xiao Zheng asked.
Deng Xiuzhen hummed in agreement.
"Hehe, don't be so reserved. I'm not a good person, but I won't harm everyone I meet."
Let me introduce myself first. My name is Zheng Ying, and my father's name is Zheng Xiaohua.
I felt an instant connection with you the moment I saw you, but of course, I wouldn't approach you just because I felt a connection with you.
At first, I just saw that you had nothing to do, so I thought I'd ask you how to buy stocks.
But after talking to you and seeing how you handle things, I feel that you are very different.
My intuition tells me that although you seem nervous and scared, you actually have a lot of ideas. And when it comes to buying stocks, you're just like me—completely clueless.
But you know exactly which stocks to buy!
Deng Xiuzhen was startled, but she remained silent, believing that silence was golden and that saying more would only lead to more mistakes.
“Don’t be nervous, I mean no harm, I just want to ask you for help,” Zheng Ying said.
“What can I do to help you? I have neither the ability nor the skills,” Deng Xiuzhen said softly.
Zheng Ying smiled and said, "Capable people always say they are not capable."
Deng Xiuzhen didn't know how to respond to that.
"You're an outsider, coming to Kyoto all alone, and you don't even know how to buy stocks, yet you're opening an account to buy stocks."
Judging from your clothes, you're definitely not a wealthy person, yet you bought several stocks at once, 100 shares of each. And judging from your expression, you're planning to secretly buy more tomorrow, aren't you?
Zheng Ying's words sent a chill down Deng Xiuzhen's spine. Who was this person? How could she see through her so clearly after only meeting her once?
If this person wants her dead, how can she live?
"Don't be afraid. I told you, I won't harm you, I just need your help."
"If you help me get through this difficult time, as a reward for your help, I can promise you three things. As long as I live, these promises will stand!" Zheng Ying seemed to have seen through her thoughts again.
"Okay, I promise you, but I can only do my best. If I can't help, you can't blame me!" She could read Zheng Ying's mind completely. Deng Xiuzhen figured she couldn't escape Zheng Ying's grasp anyway, so she readily agreed, betting that Zheng Ying would keep her word.
“Then it’s a deal!” Zheng Ying said seriously.
“It’s a deal!” Deng Xiuzhen replied.
"You don't know my father's name, do you?" Zheng Ying asked.
"I don't know, I've never heard of him," Deng Xiuzhen replied. She genuinely didn't know who Zheng Xiaohua was.
"Do you know why I was sure you were from out of town?" Zheng Ying smiled.
Deng Xiuzhen looked at Zheng Ying with a puzzled expression.
“You don’t know my dad? Someone who doesn’t know my dad’s name and still buys stocks is definitely not a local,” Zheng Ying laughed.
Deng Xiuzhen was speechless. Zheng Ying's father was definitely a household name in Beijing, yet she hadn't reacted at all to such a figure. It was impossible for her not to be an outsider!
"Let's find a place to sit down and talk," Zheng Ying suggested.
Deng Xiuzhen nodded in agreement.
The two sat down in a corner of a coffee shop. Zheng Ying ordered a coffee and Deng Xiuzhen ordered a drink.
"My family is considered very wealthy in Kyoto, but we encountered some problems, which I won't go into details about."
Because of these events, the family company encountered significant financial problems.
We urgently need funds, and my dad and brother are trying to borrow money from everyone we know.
As you know, the world is cold and indifferent, and human relationships are as fragile as paper. Seeing my family in trouble, former business partners are all avoiding us. Even relatives and friends are turning their backs on us.
I was desperate, hoping to make some money back. But I really didn't know which stocks to buy.
“Didn’t Dai Wenjun give you a recommendation?” Deng Xiuzhen said.
“Stocks are all going up right now, but I have a feeling it’s not safe and won’t last. So I want to choose stocks that are going up in the short term and invest all of my money at once!” Zheng Ying looked intently at Deng Xiuzhen.
"But I can't guarantee that if I harm you, or make things even worse for your family, I..."
"Don't overthink it. Nothing in this world is perfect! Just tell me which stocks you want to buy in Kyoto, and I'll buy them with you!" Zheng Ying reassured Deng Xiuzhen.
“Okay! We’ll buy them all tomorrow!” Deng Xiuzhen readily agreed.
Since Zheng Ying trusts her and is willing to take the gamble, she will grant her wish.
"Where did you hear this news? Is it inside information?" Zheng Ying leaned closer and asked in a low voice.
"To be honest, not long ago, my house caught fire, and the shop and all the goods were burned down."
"I had a dream last night. In the dream, someone told me to come to Kyoto to buy stocks, saying I would make a fortune, so I came," Deng Xiuzhen said, half-jokingly.
“I believe you!” Zheng Ying looked at Deng Xiuzhen and said after a long while, but her tone was not as affirmative as before.
"However, we can't reveal any of this information to prevent any unforeseen circumstances. It would be best to also release some news that these stocks will fall to prevent people from buying them," Deng Xiuzhen said softly.
Whether Zheng Ying truly believed it or not, she didn't care; she would say what needed to be said.
Zheng Ying went back to raise funds, while Deng Xiuzhen went back to the hotel to rest.
