Chapter 76 Lofty Aspirations

Chapter 1 One Night Dream

He slept soundly until the sun was high in the sky.

Sunday, a day to relax.

Su Yehao originally wanted to take Yin Liuli out for a spin on the sea, but after calling her, he found out that she was busy with the renovation and had to interview baristas, so he had to give up.

With nothing else to do, he decided to prepare for next week's test.

Back then, he dealt with earth and sand all day long, and his clothes were never clean during work. Occasionally, when he picked his nose, it was full of gray dust, and he suffered a lot.

Now that he had the opportunity to choose again, Su Yehao also hoped to start over.

He would re-enter university and try other fields.

In addition, as long as his father kept his promise, he would get a full 20 million in start-up funds, and the return would be far greater than the investment.

So, taking advantage of his good spirits, Su Yehao went straight into the study.

He put on music, did practice questions, read books, and buried himself in hard study.

Around ten o'clock, the nanny came upstairs to clean.

One of the nannies heard movement in the hallway and knocked on the door to ask if he wanted breakfast brought up. Su Yehao agreed.

His diligence was quite something.

When the nanny saw the young master writing questions at his desk, she almost dropped the tray.

The aunt who brought the breakfast finally calmed down, made sure she wasn't mistaken, and hurried downstairs to tell the master.

When Su's father heard this amazing news from the nanny, he was also dumbfounded.

He even went upstairs to confirm it with his own eyes.

When Su's father tiptoed into Su Yehao's study, he found that it was really his son, and he wasn't reading novels or magazines.

For a moment, his expression was strange.

It was a mix of disbelief, melancholy, and suspicion.

He went closer to take a look.

The questions were answered fairly smoothly, but the handwriting was a bit ugly.

Su's father clicked his tongue and dropped two words: "Rare indeed!"

Su Yehao was busy recalling knowledge points and had no time for small talk. He glanced at his father and gave him a perfunctory smile.

Su's father really didn't have much experience in education, so he turned around and went to his own room.

When he came back, he put a card on the desk.

He also praised Su Yehao, saying:

"Son, Dad is rewarding you. Keep up the good work. Even if it's last-minute cramming, it's much better than accomplishing nothing. You won't be deceived if you have knowledge! Keep it up. I'll have someone send some old mountain ginseng later to make soup to nourish your brain. Our ancestors must have burned incense to the heavens. Is our Su family finally turning around? How have you been lately? I see you often leaving early and returning late."

His words were tinged with distrust.

The father was starting to worry that Su Yehao had gotten into trouble again recently, so he was putting on a show.

There were just too many precedents; he was simply scared.

Su Yehao finally came to his senses, turned off the music, and replied, "I'm busy. I have to study, manage the shops, and I'm also in charge of the school's choir. We're starting to record the program next Friday."

"Okay, okay, okay! You're busy with your stuff. I'm going out. I won't disturb you!"

After his father happily left the study, Su Yehao picked up the card on the desk.

It was a Yau Yahan department store shopping card.

He was surprised to find that the pre-stored amount was as high as 100,000 yuan.

Su Yehao finally understood where his "intermittent ambition" came from.

With a doting father who gave money so generously, wasn't he just being held back?

Who could resist the sugar-coated bullets from time to time?

A loving father ruins his son.

Fortunately, Su Yehao had a mature, rational, and motivated outlook on life, and he wouldn't be easily dragged down.

Of course, Su Yehao was annoyed by this.

But he would still accept the shopping card so that it wouldn't benefit his family's three concubines.

It would be perfect for taking the little fish and big fish out shopping, saving him from having to pay for things himself.

He suddenly thought that poor Yin Liuli was working so hard, and she was so kind, but she didn't even have a designer bag.

His study rhythm was completely disrupted, and he began to think about getting her a gift.

A McLaren drove quickly out of the Su family's mansion and went straight to Avenida da Amizade in NAPE. The address was written on the shopping card, and the Yau Yahan shopping mall was there.

At noon, he arranged to meet Yin Liuli for fried instant noodles.

Su Yehao gave her a white Chanel lambskin bag, which cost more than twelve thousand yuan in total.

Luxury goods suddenly didn't seem so luxurious in his eyes, and he swiped the shopping card with great ease.

The "one-month dating" agreement had been quietly transformed into a simple romantic relationship.

Their relationship was already established.

A woman's bag as a gift wasn't a big deal.

But Yin Liuli was shy and felt that it wasn't appropriate to receive such a gift.

But since it had already been bought and she really liked it, she finally took the bag after much hesitation, saying that it would be deducted from her salary.

This girl didn't have much of a temper, but she was a bit stubborn.

She would bargain when buying things, be thrifty in her daily life, consider others, and care about what others thought.

Whether she was paid more or less was up to Su Yehao, so he followed Yin Liuli's wishes and immediately nodded in agreement.

The gift was worth it as long as she was happy.

————————————

Last night, during a casual chat with Nong Qingying, many of the topics were rather trivial.

One thing, however, reminded Su Yehao.

He had subconsciously thought that the luxury mansion being renovated in Hong Kong could only be left idle for a long time, and he would only stay there occasionally.

However, after hearing that Nong Qingying planned to mortgage the house to cash out ten or twenty million Hong Kong dollars easily, Su Yehao was inspired.

If he could find a suitable investment project, he could simply follow suit.

After all, his mother was supervising the account at the wealth management company, but she couldn't possibly keep an eye on the house as well.

The property certificate handled by the lawyer had already been delivered to Su Yehao this Friday.

If he privately contacted a bank to mortgage the property, his funds could potentially swell to thirty or forty million Hong Kong dollars, or even more.

While Yin Liuli was interviewing baristas, Su Yehao sat alone on a bench in a small park and thought about it seriously.

Such a large sum of money was enough to do many things.

As long as he could beat the bank loan interest rate, he could make some money, which was much better than opening a restaurant or coffee shop.

It was said that people couldn't earn money beyond their understanding.

The idea of starting a business kept going around in Su Yehao's mind, but he still couldn't make up his mind, mainly because he didn't trust his abilities.

He admitted that he still needed to learn and accumulate experience.

He felt flustered whenever he thought about starting a business himself, and this state of mind was definitely not good.

He was always worried that if his business failed, he wouldn't be able to fill the hole, and he would eventually have to ask his parents to help repay the loan, so wouldn't all his hard work to change his image be ruined?

He quickly made up his mind.

It would be more appropriate to take a steady approach in the early stages. Instead of starting a business himself, it would be better to focus on wealth management and save more capital for now.

There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. Yi Langhu and others hadn't appeared yet, let alone BAT. If he saved enough money in advance, he would always have a chance to get involved.

Su Yehao's ambition was back!

He was going to find a computer and check the current situation of the mainland internet companies he was familiar with.

Silicon Valley had been developing for some years.

He learned from the wealth management company in Hong Kong last time that Microsoft's market value had already exceeded 150 billion US dollars.

Even Su Yehao, a layman, understood that Microsoft's current price was too high, and the profit margin was relatively small, at least compared to Yahoo, which had been listed for less than a year.

Yahoo's market value was only a few billion US dollars, and Su Yehao would dare to buy it even with his eyes closed at this price.

He just didn't know enough or have enough details.

He wasn't stupid.

He could still tell the difference between good and bad...

Around one o'clock in the afternoon, Nong Qingying called. She had moved, and she didn't have much luggage, so it was easily done.

Nong Qingying was at the detached villa in the golf club, saying that the rent hadn't been paid yet, and the manager couldn't make the decision, so she wanted to meet with Su Yehao to talk about it.

He keenly realized that he could collect the rent himself, which was equivalent to cutting off his family and earning some pocket money.

Without saying a word, he said goodbye to Yin Liuli and drove to Taipa Island.

On the way, Su Yehao often got distracted, seriously considering a serious question – how to win over Nong Qingying.

A qualified fish pond owner had to put in effort.

He had to tailor his feeding to the characteristics of the fish themselves and truly adapt to changing circumstances.

For example, Nong Qingying.

In Su Yehao's view, she was like a flying fish in the sea, full of wildness.

Especially after getting the luxury mansion, she had completely spread her wings. She was not only hard to catch but could also fly.

Just a few days ago, she couldn't even afford to stay in a hotel, but now she was considering how to spend ten or twenty million Hong Kong dollars to invest in a business.

Such a girl was not only mature and rational but also knowledgeable and didn't have to worry about food and drink.

Of course, she was not easy to deal with.

After reflecting, Su Yehao deeply realized that he should act more mature and not expect too much in the short term.

When he had accumulated enough personal charm to overwhelm her, a wild fish could become a domestic fish.

The idea was good.

When he arrived at the golf club, Su Yehao deliberately drove around the parking lot twice, using the experience he had learned from Toothy Jun, sneaking around, afraid of running into acquaintances.

Driving the only McLaren F1 LM in the entire casino was like burying his head in the sand. Many employees knew that the young master had arrived as soon as possible, and the security guards greeted him one after another.

Walking to Villa No. 6 by the sea, Su Yehao knocked on the door.

The copper door opened.

Nong Qingying, wearing a loose white shirt and denim shorts, stretched her waist, showing off her flat stomach, with a bright smile and captivating eyes.

Su Yehao could understand Nong Qingying's intention.

Thinking that she was asking for his help, but she didn't tell him last night where to invest, Su Yehao vaguely felt that he had overestimated this girl's level.

After much thought, it seemed that she only knew the tricks of using her beauty and "telling your mom." In the end, she was still too young and hadn't mastered her skills.

Her fancy moves might work on real youngsters, but this time, she had met an old hand.

He decisively took the bait.

He couldn't wait for her to go too far and play with fire on her own initiative.

Su Yehao smiled and said, "Little Ying, you've become even more beautiful."

"Stop it, we just saw each other last night. You're just being glib."

Nong Qingying closed the door, secretly complacent, thinking to herself: "Would I have eaten all those meals for nothing? Dealing with a young lad like you is a piece of cake!"

Last time, when she arm-wrestled with Su Yehao, she lost and won.

Fortunately, she only lost small and won big, so it was still a victory. Nong Qingying knew that news traveled fast in wealthy families.

She was thinking about how to pry open Su Yehao's mouth and find out some useful information. That was also a resource.

She had some money on hand now but nowhere to invest. She was full of ambition and hoped to gain a foothold in the upper class in one fell swoop.

The reason was probably because even after she married into the Xue family, she was still excluded by the wealthy women and often ridiculed in front of her face.

So, even though she was already "worth fifty million," Nong Qingying didn't plan to stop. She was full of ambition and dreamed of returning to Hong Kong in glory in the near future.

It wasn't that she liked to flirt, but it was Su Yehao's fault for being so stubborn and not following the rules, with no hint of elegance.

The only weakness that Nong Qingying could think of was this, and she had no choice but to resort to this tactic...
