Chapter 1156 - 1158
His wife wasn’t happy with his decision, Zhao Xuran knew, but he didn’t want to explain.
"Don’t worry, even without this sum of money, Guang Ran won’t earn any less." Thinking about what his younger brother secretly told him last time, Zhao Guangran became anxious.
Zhao Xuran had thought about giving Zhao Guangran a stern lecture to make him change his mind.
But when the words reached his mouth, Zhao Xuran gave up; some things you have to experience firsthand to know what’s untouchable.
Ah, has Guang Ran found another lucrative venture? Why doesn’t she know?
Gong Ruini was surprised, knowing that usually, when this kid catches a big fish, he would boast for quite a while.
Once the stock settlement is done, even if it’s the middle of the night in the country, he won’t consider the time difference and will call to report immediately.
For this, he has received many scoldings from Gong Ruini and the others, but even when Zhao Guangran admits he won’t do it again, he still does it the next time.
Has Zhao Guangran discovered he’s earned quite a lot and started to act low-key?
Gong Ruini couldn’t believe it; for Zhao Guangran to act low-key would be only outwardly. If he doesn’t show off internally, then he’s not Zhao Guangran.
Gong Ruini was itching inside, wanting Zhao Xuran to give her a hint, but no matter how much she pressed, he wouldn’t say a word.
Noticing Zhao Xuran’s displeasured expression, Gong Ruini became suspicious.
With Zhao Guangran proving successful, besides Zhao Gang and his wife, his elder brother would be the happiest.
Cai Meina had so much to say to her daughter, but she had already given plenty of advice, and since Zhao Xuran and Gong Ruini were going to be apart for so long, they should have more to say.
After sending away Cai Meina, Gong Ruini naturally pressed Zhao Xuran relentlessly.
"Ah, you won’t say? Aren’t I going to find out when I get to the United States?" No matter how much Gong Ruini badgered Zhao Xuran, he wouldn’t say anything, which infuriated her.
Hmph, if not for thinking about scaring Zhao Guangran when she got to the United States, would she need to keep pestering Zhao Xuran so much?
Seeing his wife sitting angrily beside him, Zhao Xuran sighed inwardly, regretting bringing it up now.
"Actually, it’s nothing major. Guang Ran recently started playing with futures trading." Gong Ruini might not know much about futures trading, but as someone who didn’t study finance or economics, how could she understand?
Moreover, even the finance majors domestically don’t have the term ’futures.’
No way, playing with futures? Gong Ruini was shocked by Zhao Xuran’s words, immediately taking a deep breath.
Gong Ruini certainly knew about futures; in her past life, she had tried them.
Playing with it was nerve-wracking, and after a few rounds, Gong Ruini quit while ahead.
The problem is, Zhao Guangran is just a kid; how could he be so bold? Although it brings quick money, the speed at which it loses money can scare you half to death.
"How did he come up with playing this?" Gong Ruini felt anxious.
Could someone see him as a vigorous youngster and use this method to bring him down?
Thinking of this, Gong Ruini gasped, worrying that if Zhao Guangran were suddenly brought down, what would he do?
Would he be unable to ever recover? The more Gong Ruini thought about it, the more anxious she became.
In her past life, she had never heard of the Zhao Family’s second son; she only knew Zhao Xuran’s personal profile mentioned four brothers.
But there were only three known to everyone; as for Zhao Guangran, not only was he not familiar, but no reports existed about him.
His presence was even less than the low-profile Ban Xia and Zisu; if you didn’t know Zhao Guangran’s personality, you’d think he was incredibly low-key. Is that possible?
The only way for Zhao Guangran to be so low-key is if he suffered a significant fall, leaving him unable to recover, or if he wasn’t alive.
With these thoughts, Gong Ruini became extremely anxious. No, she couldn’t let anything happen to him.
"Make Guang Ran stop; what if something happens?" The more Gong Ruini thought, the more restless she became.
Zhao Xuran was already anxious inside; Gong Ruini’s words increased his concern, "You know Zhao Guangran’s personality."
"Can’t you scold him?" Gong Ruini truly doesn’t understand why Zhao Xuran, capable of restraining Zhao Guangran, wouldn’t do so.
Seeing Gong Ruini so concerned for Zhao Guangran made Zhao Xuran feel a bit uncomfortable.
It seemed his wife wasn’t as anxious for him. Although he knew Gong Ruini and Zhao Guangran couldn’t be together.
Still, seeing one’s wife care so much for another man, even if it’s her brother-in-law, would make any man feel uneasy.
"Guang Ran is a tenacious person; if he falls hard this time, might he not be able to get back up?"
"Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhan would be very worried, and you wouldn’t be happy either."
Gong Ruini truly dared not imagine if something really happened to Zhao Guangran, how Zhao Gang and the others would react.
Don’t think that Zhao Gang often criticizes Zhao Xuran; they absolutely cherish this son.
Something happened? Is it really this scary? Zhao Xuran had considered that if Zhao Guangran took a huge loss in futures, he’d just be silent for a while.
But his proud personality wouldn’t leave him in silence; he would definitely seek to make a comeback.
Remembering how Zhao Guangran had been suppressed by Gong Ruini since he was young, wouldn’t it be enough emotional schooling?
"If it’s just taking a loss, that’s not a problem, but if someone beside him keeps ridiculing him, what then?" Gong Ruini asked worriedly.
Seeing someone ridiculing Guang Ran, Zhao Xuran’s face suddenly went pale as he realized he’d forgotten about that.
"You used to ridicule Guang Ran too." Gong Ruwen handed some lists to Gong Ruini.
Although he hadn’t spread the news that Gong Ruini was going abroad, the Chu Family must have heard, and now Chu Ling’s sister-in-law and sisters were all sending requests for things they wanted.
If it were someone else, Gong Ruwen could ignore them, but he had to consider Chu Ling’s family.
At that moment, Gong Ruwen was grateful to the Chu Family; otherwise, he wouldn’t have known that Xuran and their sister were having an unpleasant dispute over Zhao Guangran.
No brother wants to hear about their own sibling encountering trouble; even if Ni Zi’s intentions were good, it still wouldn’t sit well with the Zhao Family.
"Back then, Guang Ran stood firm, and now he’s grown up; he should be even more resilient."
Ah, does that imply she’s overthinking it? This made Gong Ruini a bit uneasy.
"Have faith in Guang Ran." Gong Ruwen gestured for Gong Ruini to be quiet.
Alright, seeing even her elder brother suggest this, she decided to remain calm, especially since Zhao Xuran’s expression wasn’t great.
"Ni Zi, talk to him when you reach the United States." Even though Zhao Xuran had confidence in Zhao Guangran, believing he wouldn’t do something foolish, sometimes confidence alone is not enough.
