After the Divorce, I Could Hear the Voice of the Future-Chapter 51: Observations
Lu Liang had a solid foundation, and since he was willing to learn, teaching him wasn't hard for Su Wanyu.
One eager to teach, and the other eager to learn, time flew by swiftly.
Not until Chen Jinchun knocked on the door to remind them that half an hour had passed did she look at Lu Liang, to confirm his decision or to move on to the next candidate.
Su Wanyu also looked at Lu Liang, her eyes filled with hope; she was studying for her postgraduate entrance exams and really needed this part-time job to cover her daily expenses.
"Miss Su, you can go back first. Later, I'll have Xiao Chen notify you if you're accepted."
Su Wanyu was very patient and approachable, with a voice gentle and sweet, just like her character, warm and smooth as jade.
She also bore a striking resemblance to a language teacher Lu Liang had liked back in elementary school; he was quite satisfied with her teaching methods.
Perhaps it was a man's nature,
Lu Liang always felt the next candidate might be better.
"Mr. Lu, Miss Chen, I'll take my leave then."
Su Wanyu forced a smile, a flicker of disappointment in her eyes, but she said nothing more.
"Xiao Chen, have the next one come in."
Lu Liang then interviewed several more candidates.
There were veteran teachers with twenty years of experience and some whose looks made one lose all interest in studying at just one glance.
Yet, none could last for half an hour; some barely introduced themselves before Lu Liang called for the next.
Unknowingly, after interviewing five or six people, he had thought the next one would be better, but had not realized that the best had been right at the start.
Approaching five o'clock and hungry, Lu Liang said, "Let's go with the first one, book 20 classes. Have her come over tomorrow at four in the afternoon, one to two classes on workdays, and rest on weekends."
"Okay, Mr. Lu. I'll place the order."
The private tutoring was all found by Chen Jinchun on an educational website, which provided a contract that protected both parties' rights.
The 20 classes totaled 8,000 yuan.
Chen Jinchun looked at Lu Liang, hoping for a resolution as Tang Caide wasn't there, and she had no money to pay.
"Send me the payment link." Lu Liang chuckled, opened the link, and was directed to the Alipay payment page.
After placing the order, Chen Jinchun contacted Su Wanyu to schedule the official start of classes for the next day.
Once five o'clock came around and without much else to do, Lu Liang decided to head off work along with Chen Jinchun.
"Where do you live, do you need a ride?"
He casually brought it up inside the elevator.
Chen Jinchun quickly replied, "Mr. Lu, I live close by in Golden Bridge Community. I can just walk home."
"That's fine then."
Lu Liang hummed in response, didn't inquire further and when they reached the ground floor, Chen Jinchun stepped out of the elevator, "Mr. Lu, goodbye."
Lu Liang went down to the parking garage on the second basement level and drove back to Tangchen Yipin.
As soon as he arrived home, he heard Li Manli's voice coming from the kitchen, "Babies, today we're making crab meat tofu."
She was dressed in a blue and white sailor outfit, standing next to a lighting setup, appearing to be livestreaming a cooking show.
Lu Liang watched with interest, and suddenly remembered Li Manli's blogger ID seemed to be Li Xiaomeng.
He downloaded that unseemly-named app Bilibili.
If Li Manli hadn't mentioned it was a hub for anime fans, Lu Liang would have thought it was an adult site like Pornhub or Xvideos.
He found Li Manli's livestream and was surprised to see quite a large audience, over five thousand viewers.
"Honey, I love crab meat tofu the most."
"Honey, I'll probably be home around seven tonight."
"A bunch of shameless guys, obviously Honey is mine."
"..."
Judging by the lively comments from the viewers,
the audience of over five thousand seemed genuine.
There were over thirty channel admins and even two admirals.
Understanding the tipping rules, Lu Liang topped up fifty thousand yuan and opened a most expensive governor subscription, costing roughly twenty thousand a month.
Once the governor was active, the livestream room's screen was covered with flashy effects, attracting hordes of new viewers.
However, it was just the beginning; it was followed by over twenty Lucky Small TVs, each valued at 1245 RMB.
At that moment, Li Xiaomeng's livestream room became the most eye-catching presence on the entire platform.
"Thank you, passerby..."
Li Manli spoke excitedly, then she saw Lu Liang standing at the door, smiling.
She was surprised and suddenly understood everything. She wanted to turn off the live stream to catch up properly, for not seeing him for a day felt like an eternity.
Lu Liang smiled softly, shook his head slowly, and made a silent gesture, indicating she should continue the live stream.
He sat down in the living room, made himself a cup of tea, and watched Li Manli busily working in the kitchen.
Suddenly, his phone rang,
someone had sent him a message on the app.
Devoted to Xiaomeng: "Admiral, would you like to join our fan group? Xiaomeng really has it tough. Next time she has a PK battle, come and support her."
Lu Liang remembered, she was one of the only two Admirals Li Manli had. He thought for a moment and replied, "Are you her boyfriend?"
Devoted to Xiaomeng replied: "If only I were."
"Then why help her like this?"
"When she's happy, I'm happy."
Lu Liang was momentarily speechless.
At that moment, Li Manli's crabmeat and tofu dish was ready, and she shut down the live stream.
She brought the dish to the table with a sweet smile: "Liang, just wait, I'll go make some soup."
Lu Liang stepped forward, embraced her slender waist with a laugh, and teased, "What kind of love potion have you given him?"
The sailor outfit was very well designed, the top was short and couldn't cover the hem of the skirt, revealing a section of her smooth waist.
"I didn't really say anything," Li Manli looked at the screen, worried Lu Liang might misunderstand, and quickly opened their chat history.
Lu Liang was stunned to see what's called lowliness—sending messages morning and night, caring about her condition, and constantly more concerned about her live stream stats than she was.
Sometimes when that Admirer wanted to talk in depth, Li Manli would either take a long time to reply or ignore him entirely.
Lu Liang couldn't help but laugh, imagining her impatient expression at the time, which reminded him of the first time he had seen Li Manli.
That was just the kind of person she was.
But Lu Liang didn't care.
If girls weren't vain or didn't admire strength, then what's the point of having money, and what's the purpose of working hard to earn it?
"Go make the soup, I'll take a shower first."
Lu Liang's lips curled slightly as he playfully patted Li Manli's pert bottom.
...
The next morning, after finishing his workout, Lu Liang arrived at the company just after nine o'clock.
Today was Friday, the last trading day of the week, and the market activity significantly decreased.
The index fell below 4,000 points, which was one of the reasons. Institutions didn't want to hold stocks over the weekend, and retail investors were afraid to invest.
The whole market was gloomy, but there were always a few stocks that went against the trend and rose.
Teli A was one of them, with an increase of 3.55% that day, and the latest stock price was 9.80 yuan.
"They shouldn't have built much of a position, right?"
Lu Liang frowned. Since Monday, he had been following the capital flows of this stock.
The lurking institutions probably had no more than 50 million in chips; they shouldn't be starting a trend now.
According to his calculations, they would have to wait at least another 2-3 business days, around next Wednesday, before a minor trend would emerge.
"A probe? Or have they colluded with shareholders?"
Lu Liang considered two possibilities. One was taking advantage of the dismal Friday market to test the market's reaction.
The other was that those institutions had already colluded with the shareholders, acquiring a large number of chips from them, so they didn't need to accumulate in the secondary market.
Lu Liang thought for a long time, couldn't figure it out, and decided not to ponder this problem for the time being.
Increased market activity was beneficial and harmless to him, suggesting that even if he increased the accumulation of shares, he would not be noticed.
The increase or decrease at the moment didn't matter much to him; only having a base position of 40 million would he start to reveal his spot.
With four hours of trading time all day, Lu Liang increased the amount for buying, with individual transactions rising from within 50,000 to within 100,000.
By the time the market closed in the afternoon, his account's holding position reached 16.5%, totaling 13.035 million, holding 13,369 lots.
Currently at a loss of 278,000,
he was still 26.965 million short of his target position.
Lu Liang organized his documents and then rested for a while with his eyes closed.

Near four o'clock, he walked out of his office to see Su Wanyu waiting in the meeting room.
