“Sinuo, don’t say that. She’s your only cousin.” Zhao Manshu placed a cup of coffee on her table. “You know that your grandmother and father don’t like you talking like that. Otherwise, you’ll get into trouble again.”

Zhao Manshu’s words stirred up Kang Sinuo’s sadness once again. “I insist on saying it! I’m Dad’s daughter while she’s just Aunt’s daughter. We can’t possibly give in to her just because our family wants to make things up to her after she went missing, can we? Grandma and Dad have taught me since I was young to be a reasonable person. Why did they lose their rationality at this time and become so weak? They’re practicing double standards.”

Zhao Manshu was silent for a while before she said earnestly, “Sinuo, can’t you just give in to her a little? She’s very pitiful. She hasn’t been by our side since she was young…”

“Enough!” Kang Sinuo was furious and could not take it anymore. “Mom, why are you always so weak? Why do you have to compromise? You always have to go along with Grandma and Dad’s decision. Why can’t you be more independent and strong like Aunt?”

Kang Sinuo suddenly stopped talking. “I’m sorry, Mom.”

Zhao Manshu’s eyes were bleak as she gave a self-deprecating laugh. “What you said is the truth.”

Ever since Luo Mengmeng bought the virtual coin that Sheng Yang recommended, the price had continued to rise. Soon, it was trending. No one lacked the desire to become rich overnight. As a result, it became extremely popular among the students.

Thanks to Sheng Yang, Luo Mengmeng, who had always been slow in dealing with such matters, became the first person to enjoy the profits. This was the first time in history that others joined in the fun after her.

Even though she wasn’t greedy and was content, she couldn’t help but ask Sheng Yang when the entire nation was stirred up. “Yangyang, how did you know that the price would rise?”

Sheng Yang had just finished reading the financial report when she lightly swiped her finger across her phone. “Just a feeling.”

They were currently in an elective class. In this elective class, other than students from their department, there were also some students from the finance department. They were talking about virtual currency.

A student who studied finance paid special attention to Sheng Yang. They started acting like a bootlicker. “Sheng Yang, be sure to buy the coin. Listen to me. Things definitely won’t go wrong!”

“No.”

Luo Mengmeng listened to Yangyang’s resolute reply and found it strange. Yangyang knew that the price would rise, so why didn’t she want to buy it? This was obviously something that could earn her money.

Could it be that Yangyang regarded money as nothing? But it didn’t seem like it.

Luo Mengmeng was puzzled.

This student’s words received the approval of a few other finance students. Every time they spoke loudly about virtual currency, the other students would pay close attention. They pricked up their ears, wanting to hear some insider news. However, this was the first time they had met someone as uninterested as Sheng Yang.

The students were getting anxious.

“Sheng Yang, he’s right. Don’t think that you can ignore money just because you’re a student. If you don’t care about money, money will ignore you.”

“Yes, yes. I know you’re still clinging to your original mindset. You think the bank can protect your capital. Everyone’s wealth shouldn’t be put in the same basket. You just need to split a portion of your funds to buy virtual coins. That way, you can earn money and avoid certain risks.”
