After the Divorce, I Could Hear the Voice of the Future-Chapter 80: Really Got Caught

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Lu, take your time and have fun. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

Zhuang Xiaoting saw that Lu Liang had accepted her business card, didn't linger much, and said goodbye with well-measured politeness.

"How do you feel?" Wang Xiaocong asked.

"A very impressive woman."

Lu Liang, deep in thought, sipped his drink and said, "But her family background shouldn't be good, right?"

Wang Xiaocong was surprised. "You've heard of her before?"

"No."

"Then how do you know?"

"I guessed."

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

Lu Liang smiled faintly. He sensed a similar air about Zhuang Xiaoting, both of them coming from poor backgrounds and making something of themselves.

He had relied on foreseeing the future, and it was hard to imagine what a woman had relied on, what she had sacrificed.

She definitely slept with many, but while some could only sell themselves for 200, others could sell for 2 million or even more.

"How did you guess?" Wang Xiaocong was curious.

Because Old Wang also behaved like that sometimes, not having seen or known someone but still able to judge their experiences at a glance.

"Um...let's just go dance."

Lu Liang didn't want to explain, mainly out of laziness.

And even if he did explain, Wang Xiaocong, a wealthy second-generation, probably wouldn't understand.

"Damn it, I hate people like you." Wang Xiaocong's face darkened, and he grumbled as he dragged a girl downstairs to dance.

They played until after 2:00 a.m. Lu Liang called a designated driver and returned home alone.

Little Wang's taste was too peculiar, calling mainly internet celebrities with 'snake faces' and even a Rune Mage.

It was fine to play a part and take some minor advantages, but swallowing that, he really couldn't.

...

The next morning, news about Panda swept across the internet.

"Lu Liang makes a surprise visit to Wang Xiaocong's live stream"

"Panda TV's registered users exceed 5 million"

"New 'homebody goddess' Li Xiaomeng signs with Panda"

"Panda TV firmly ranks third in live interactive entertainment"

Among the top ten trends on Weibo, five were about Panda Interactive Entertainment, overshadowing even the news of Wang Xiaocong and Lu Liang hitting the nightclub.

Lu Liang watched the trending news, feeling utterly indifferent. Wang Xiaocong had mentioned last night that there was still over 3 million in the account, all planned for buying hot search spots.

Another 20 million would be added later to maintain the current operation, ensuring that Panda would become the third-largest live streaming platform after Douyu and Huya, at the time of the Series A funding, valuations would naturally soar.

Lu Liang ate breakfast and slowly made his way to the office, ready to dive back into work after a night of indulgence.

Li Jianlin and Wu Junle had completed their transactions, with rumors swirling around a total earnings of 4.8 billion.

The stock price also dropped from a high of 48 yen to 25 yen, nearly halving it.

Lu Liang looked at the trading platform, lost in thought, unsure whether to continue with this stock.

By now, he had made a big name for himself. He didn't need Teli A to become the brightest new star in the financial circle.

Even if he was just being used as a distraction, he had reached the expected outcome ahead of time.

Now, every move he made was surely being watched.

Recklessly entering the market would be like making a wedding dress for someone else.

After a long thought, Lu Liang decided to continue selling off the stock, as Li Jianlin and Wu Junle knew about his position.

He still had 20,000 shares, valued at 50 million yen. He planned to sell half and then buy back in through another account.

The seat at 88 Punan Road couldn't be used for the time being.

"What the hell is this?"

Lu Liang planned to start unloading the stock after lunch, in the afternoon trading session.

Today was Thursday. If he sold today, the funds would be available tomorrow, making a proper and respected move.

But when he woke up from his nap, Teli A's trading screen turned dark with a black bar next to it, a sign of a temporary trading suspension.

"Could he have been arrested?"

Lu Liang stroked his chin, lost in thought.

The next second, as if to confirm his guess, Teli Group issued an announcement stating that there was a major event for discussion that might affect subsequent market movements, and in consideration of the interests of all shareholders, they had applied for an indefinite suspension.

Soon, rumors spread that someone had seen personnel from the Securities and Futures Commission and the Discipline Inspection Commission stationed at Teli's Shenzhen office.

Others saw Securities and Futures Commission vehicles entering the office building of Zhongxin Fuying, where Li Jianlin was suspected of being called in for questioning.

There was also news from 12 Futian Road, where the general manager of the Citic branch and Wu Junle were suspected of being taken away for investigation.

"Heaven's cycle of retribution, no one is spared."

"Well done, these manipulative bastards trap people every day."

"Don't forget, there's Lu Liang."

"Yes, yes, Lu Liang too."

"Any brothers in Modu?"

"What's happening with Lu Liang?"

Once the news broke, it sparked heated discussions on stock forums, quickly putting Lu Liang in hot water.

Although he had shorted the yen, plundering the wealth of the people of Japan, it could not cover up the fact that he had profited from Teli A before.

88 Punan Road, Modu,

was also the public's first chance to get to know Lu Liang.

The stock forum users were excited, shouting, "These manipulative bastards who made money, none of them should escape."

Meanwhile, Lu Liang was in his company's reception room, meeting Zhao Haisheng.

"Mr. Lu, just now the people from the Securities and Futures Commission collected some data at our branch," Zhao said.

Concerned that the call might be monitored, Zhao, after much deliberation, decided to personally take the risk and make the trip.

"Could it be my trading records?"

Lu Liang asked with a smile, appearing relaxed and at ease.

Zhao Haisheng simply nodded, his face showing surprise at how Lu Liang could be so unconcerned; he himself had nearly died from fright, having experienced this sort of thing twice in two days.

This made his already thinning hair seem more pronounced.

"Relax, if they could find anything, they would have been here by now."

Lu Liang was nonchalant. His trading records could stand up to scrutiny, even if it was just a case of taking from one hand and giving to the other.

Unlike Li Wu, who engaged in high-frequency trading and collusion with shareholders for locked positions, they likely had to spit out even their principal and profits.

Zhao Haisheng's eyes widened in disbelief, "Mr. Lu, did you really profit through skill?"

"What else? Through insider information? Or through front running?" Lu Liang asked rhetorically, still with a smile.

Zhao Haisheng chuckled nervously, still somewhat incredulous.

In the A-share market, very few of the big money players made money legitimately. He paused, then added, "The public opinion is currently not very favorable towards you, shall we clarify things for you?"

"No hurry, let the bullets fly for a while, without suppression, how can there be upliftment?"

Lu Liang's face broke into a smile, obviously having a new plan in mind.

After seeing off Zhao Haisheng, he intentionally stayed hidden in the office, letting the rumors spread even more fiercely.

These kinds of situations were like a spring; the more they were compressed, the more powerful they could burst out when released.

Meanwhile, Meng Changkun came by for a look but seeing Lu Liang behaving as if nothing was wrong, he left again.

He was somewhat in the know; last week several of them had gone out to sea to have fun, and fortunately, Lu Liang had not agreed to join, otherwise, he would be "invited for tea" as well.

During the afternoon lecture, Su Wanyu also seemed distracted, occasionally glancing out the window.

She was afraid that suddenly a few people dressed in suits would appear with a document and then take Lu Liang away.

Lu Liang looked displeased and tapped her forehead with his pen, "Focus. What's running through your mind all the time? Can't you hope for something good for me?"

"I wish I could, but that's how it's always portrayed on TV," Su Wanyu felt wronged.

"Ever heard the saying, 'Art imitates life, but it is elevated above life'?"

Lu Liang smiled and continued, "If there was an issue, they would have already come by now. Cooperating with an investigation is the duty of every citizen."

"Really?" Su Wanyu tilted her head, half-convinced.

Lu Liang frowned, "Or, you don't believe me?"

"Not at all~"
