At a Black Swan Afternoon Tea Shop in the Imperial Capital, Xue Ning and a few of her sisters were sitting by the window of the shop, enjoying the peace.
The temperature of the air-conditioner in the shop was moderate.
Although it was still hot at the end of August, it was no longer stuffy. In another half to a month, autumn would completely arrive.
As a brand under Holyland, the group wanted to make Black Swan the top cake brand in the country.
It was hard to say whether it had become famous or not, but the price was indeed top-notch in the field of cakes.
A cake that could be eaten in one or two bites cost more than 200 yuan. Ordinary families definitely could not afford it.
However, the ingredients for the cake were also top-notch imported ingredients. The cake maker's craftsmanship was also not bad, so the taste was passable.
Such a cake shop was naturally beautifully decorated. Since the shop was not in the downtown area, the trees outside the shop were shady, and the atmosphere was pleasant.
The reason why Xue Ning and her sisters came here was because there was an equestrian club nearby.
The sisters had nothing to do, so they gathered a few people to ride horses. When they were tired, they would rest at the nearby cake shop, eat a few bites of cake, and chat.
The shop was very large, and every table was far away from each other, giving people a sense of privacy. From time to time, people would secretly look over.
Xue Ning Lin knew that almost all the men who secretly peeked at her were looking at her, especially the pair of slender legs under her skirt that were wearing light gray silk stockings.
It wasn't that Xue Ning was narcissistic, but it was the truth. None of her friends were as good-looking as her.
Most of her friends were also from wealthy families. Their families had hundreds of millions or even billions of assets, but they were far inferior to Xue Ning's family.
Under normal circumstances, these rich young women would not be close to a woman who was too beautiful like Xue Ning.
After all, when they walked outside, everyone else was looking at Xue Ning. To these arrogant and rich ladies, it was very unpleasant.
However, the reality was that interpersonal relationships were a circle within a circle.
In a circle, you might be the person at the center, and everyone would follow your lead.
However, in another circle, you might be a peripheral figure and serve as a foil to others.
These young ladies who came out with Lin Xue Ning were like this.
They all had their own cliques, and a group of other sisters followed behind them.
However, Xue Ning's family was better off, and some of her family members even had business cooperation with the Ai family's enterprise group. They were willing to be a green leaf for Xue Ning.
Xue Ning Lin had a hot figure. She wore bold and fashionable clothes like these light gray stockings. Most women rarely dared to wear them, but she did.
The silk stockings were thin and light, and it was obvious that they were high-end goods. Wearing them on her well-maintained beautiful legs and a pair of high heels at the tip of her toes, they were very tempting and would naturally attract the attention of men.
Lin Xue Ning was very sensitive to these gazes. Facing these gazes, not only was she not shy, but she also glared back at them with a fierce look that said," What are you looking at? If you look at me again, I'll dig your eyes out."
Immediately, those men were so guilty that they didn't dare to look anymore, afraid that this 'tigress' would walk over and slap them.
Although this was considered one of the more luxurious cake shops in the country, there were not many rich socialites like Lin Xue Ning who came.
Most of them were couples who came to check in. Although a piece of cake was expensive, it was not completely unaffordable.
If he was slapped because he peeked at a beautiful woman, it would be a direct social death. Who knew how his girlfriend sitting opposite him would treat him? The probability of breaking up was very high.
Seeing that these men had retracted their gazes, Lin Xue Ning felt much more comfortable.
Not far away, a pair of fake socialites took a few photos and quickly ran away with their fake Chanel bags.
These fake socialites had serious knife marks on their faces. Moreover, it was probably done by the same doctor. They were almost carved from the same mold.
They had originally planned to take some photos to show off in their Moments, Little Red Book, Weibo, and other places. Who would have thought that they would meet a real socialite here!
Although these fake socialites had a good background and were even better looking than Xue Ning's sisters.
However, the difference between his temperament and his confident aura was too great. It was even more obvious when the two of them sat closer.
The fake socialite couldn't stand this. Sitting here was like sitting on pins and needles. She should run away quickly.
"Sister Yiyi's aura is so strong. She scared people away with a glance. As expected of our Queen Ai!”
One of her best friends at the table noticed Xue Ning's behavior. She whispered and laughed secretly.
"Sister Yiyi, you're older than me. You're making me old for no reason!”
Xue Ning rolled her eyes at her sisters.
A girl sitting on the other side hummed,""…I'm the queen, shining with confidence!”
"Liu Qi, what are you singing?”
Xue Ning patted Liu Qi's shoulder and smiled like a silver bell.
"It hurts so much. Is this the strength of the Queen's hand?”
Liu Qi pretended to grimace and complained.
"You make me sound like a Diamond Barbie!”
The few sisters at the table laughed along with her. Xue Ning Lin also laughed out loud. She laughed so hard that she was shaking.
"Hey, do you guys know that Young Master Wei who has been very popular on Weibo recently?”
Liu Qi said mysteriously.
"I know, I know. Are you talking about the Young Master Wei who wrote the 'Gold-Hunting Notes? I really like reading this book. Qiqi, you like it too?”
"…Sigh, then we have to talk. It's just that he's been updating slowly recently. In the past, he used to write 30,000 words a day, but now he's only writing 10,000 words.”
When Xue Ning heard her best friends bring the topic to Young Master Wei, she subconsciously sat up straight, took a sip of the fruit tea in front of her, and listened attentively.
Actually, she wanted to say that she also liked to read it, especially since she agreed with Ping Xie. She had a precious piece of the author's personal writing.
However, as the big sister of this small group, she felt that she had to calm down a little. However, she was really eager to join the conversation.
Liu Qi was stunned for a moment before he said hesitantly,"…I think it's that Young Master Wei. I remember he wrote some novel, but I haven't read it.”
"I'm talking about Young Master Wei's business in the capital market.”
The little girl who had mentioned the Gold-Hunting Notes was disappointed.
Alright, so we're not talking about the same thing.
"Qi Qi, what happened to that Young Master Wei in the capital market?”
a girl asked.
She knew that Liu Qi's father was the manager of a private equity fund.
Seeing that someone had asked, Liu Qi didn't keep him in suspense. He excitedly told him about Young Master Wei's journey in the capital market in less than a month, as if he was telling a story.
The group of sisters were dumbfounded.
Although they might not understand the capital market, stocks, funds, and so on, they were not very familiar with it.
However, it was impossible for him to not know anything about finance since he was born into such a family.
When they heard Liu Qi talk about the three-week journey and how he used leverage to earn more than 300 million yuan with 2.6 million yuan, they all thought that they were listening to a heavenly book.
"Really, Qi Qi?"
Someone asked in disbelief.
After all, this matter was too exaggerated.
He did not need to earn 300 million yuan in a month.
What was 300 million?
Don't look at how rich their families were. Some of them had hundreds of millions of assets, while others had more than a billion. Other than Lin Xue Ning, the family with the most assets had more than three billion.
This was definitely the class of the rich.
Even so, no one could afford to fork out 300 million yuan in cash.
Rich people like her only had assets that were measured in years. At most, they could only increase their assets at a rate of about 10%. Unless they were lucky enough to encounter a good investment, their assets would only soar.
However, most of the investments actually ended in failure. After all, a rich person's bankruptcy was never because of eating, drinking, and having fun. It was because of the failure of the investment.
Young Master Wei's incredible operation was not comparable to these families 'total assets, but in terms of the degree of power, even the fathers of these young ladies would have to admit defeat.
Of course, all of this could not be counted on Xue Ning. Her family was really too rich.
Her family's company was ranked among the top five private enterprises in the country in terms of assets.
"To be honest, I didn't believe it even after hearing it. My family is in private placement, so I know too much about this. It doesn't seem like something a human can do.”
"My dad didn't believe it at first, thinking that the screenshots were photoshopped. But he asked the people in the industry and found out that it was true.”
"That Young Master Wei isn't photoshopped. He's really that blockbuster!”
At this moment, Liu Qi could not care less about being reserved. After holding it in for a long time, he used a relatively vulgar word, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Who is that Young Master Wei? Qi Qi, have you seen him before?”
The girl who had called out " Gold-looting Notes " said excitedly.
Xue Ning, who had been silent all this while, also quickly looked at Liu Qi.
"Huang Sijia, why are you so excited?”
Liu Qi didn't answer. Instead, he looked at the girl who asked and teased her.
Huang Sijia didn't care about Liu Qi's ridicule. Instead, she said with conviction,""…I'm a fan of Young Master Wei. I really like his books.”
"…If you know him, just help me get an autograph.”
After saying that, Huang Sijia revealed the results of Young Master Wei's book.
When they heard that this big shot not only stirred up the capital market, but also earned millions a month by writing a novel, all the ladies fell silent for a moment.
They each took a sip of fruit tea and sighed.
This was a true big shot.
Although they were born well, they did not seem to have to worry about anything since they were young and lived an enviable life.
However, they also understood that they were actually just ordinary people. Perhaps it was because of the elite education they had received since they were young that they seemed to be better than children from ordinary families.
However, if they were not born into such a family, they would not be found in a crowd.
However, there were always true geniuses in this world, true awesome figures, true chosen ones. For example, this Young Master Wei was clearly a rare genius.
"Of course I don't know him. Young Master Wei is quite mysterious and low-key. I've never seen him in the industry.”
"…My dad would like to get to know him. There are too many people in the circle who want to know him.”
"My father was wondering where this Young Master Wei came from. No one in the circle could do such a thing, so he suspected that he might be an old man in his forties.”
"…Because I suddenly realized the true meaning of the stock market, that's why I'm doing this.”
Liu Qi's words were more like a joke because this person's appearance was too strange. They had never heard of this person's name before, so everyone could only guess blindly.
The group of girls laughed along.
At this time, Lin Xue Ning, who had been silent all this while, blurted out,""He's not in his forties, he's only in his early twenties.”
The sisters looked at Xue Lin in surprise.
