Chapter 1087: Chapter 465: Next Week’s Recap (Part 2)

“He’s gone abroad?”

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Xinyi was stunned. Liu Jing mentioned how Zhou Yuwen was very popular now, having acquired 2% of Vipshop’s shares on Wall Street.

But all Jiang Xinyi heard was that Zhou Yuwen had gone abroad.

She knew about Su Qing going abroad. Back then, she thought that without Su Qing, she’d have no competitors.

But the end result was that Zhou Yuwen followed her abroad.

In his heart,

Was Su Qing always more important than her?

Could it be that her overreaction that night led him to Su Qing?

If back then…

The more Jiang Xinyi thought, the more she regretted her actions that night.

On the other hand, what troubled Liu Jing was Zhou Yuwen’s incredible success lately. Even before, when Vipshop’s shares rose, Zhou Yuwen had already earned a hundred million US dollars. Now, three weeks later, instead of the strategic adjustments Liu Jing anticipated, Vipshop’s valuation soared past 20 billion US dollars in just a fortnight.

The 2% shares Zhou Yuwen held were now worth 400 million US dollars, meaning that during his travels with Lu Wanting, his net worth had doubled, reaching 3.2 billion — a threefold increase.

The domestic media had begun hyping him up as the youngest billionaire in history.

2014 was supposed to be a vibrant year for the internet, with countless people discussing startups and O2O models. Yet, Zhou Yuwen stood out. While many young entrepreneurs in the country were doing roadshows, hoping to get funding from capitalists, Zhou Yuwen, across the ocean, was making these massive earnings with just a flick of a finger.

Jiang Xinyi’s family assets totaled about 6 to 7 billion, so Liu Jing’s previous attitude made sense, considering that such families were rare nationwide.

Many would dream, but could not become their son-in-law.

Yet Zhou Yuwen had this luck and didn’t cherish it.

Naturally, this upset everyone, and Liu Jing thought to herself that Zhou Yuwen would regret it sooner or later!

But who would have thought, Zhou Yuwen did not regret it.

Liu Jing found herself feeling a little regret…

It was, after all, 3.2 billion.

If Zhou Yuwen was still dating Xinyi, their family’s power could break 10 billion, marking a new level.

Sigh, in retrospect, her daughter was indeed a bit impulsive.

She wondered if Xinyi pursued Zhou Yuwen again, would there still be a chance?

Liu Jing recounted Zhou Yuwen’s recent activities abroad to Jiang Xinyi, intending to persuade her daughter. She wondered if she should try to save the relationship.

But she didn’t expect Jiang Xinyi’s feelings for Zhou Yuwen to be deeper than she thought. From the moment Liu Jing mentioned Zhou Yuwen’s departure, Jiang Xinyi’s mind wandered, thinking of how Zhou Yuwen thought Su Qing was more important than her.

Thinking this, her nose couldn’t help but grow sour.

Seeing Jiang Xinyi silent, Liu Jing hesitated and said, “Actually, you two don’t really have any big disagreements. It’s just that girl…”

“Men occasionally seek some fun outside, that’s very normal, even your dad…”

Liu Jing was about to say something more when Jiang Xinyi coldly replied, “I will never go to him first.”

“?” Liu Jing was taken aback and looked up at her daughter.

To her surprise, her daughter’s expression was gravely serious, and she was crying…

Jiang Xinyi wiped her tears and said, “I did nothing wrong. It’s been two months, and he hasn’t even sent me a message. He simply doesn’t like me.”

With that, Jiang Xinyi turned and went back to her room.

Liu Jing wanted to say something more to her daughter but didn’t stop her.

Back in her room, Jiang Xinyi checked online news about Zhou Yuwen on her computer: things like the youngest billionaire.

There were various media pictures of Zhou Yuwen, dressed in a suit, looking vibrant and dashing, and even one at the Wall Street Stock Exchange, confidently pointing the way forward.

Jiang Xinyi watched Zhou Yuwen’s photos on the screen, tears streaming down her face.

Lost in thought, Jiang Xinyi suddenly seemed to realize something.

No longer despondent, she stood up and wiped her tears.

At dinner that evening, Liu Jing, having gathered her thoughts, felt that given Zhou Yuwen’s current achievements, dealing with his entanglement with that Su girl was manageable. Even if he kept Su Qing outside, Liu Jing felt she could accept it. The issue was how to guide her daughter now.

Yet, before she could speak,

Jiang Xinyi earnestly said to Liu Jing, “Mom, should we take the family company public?”

“Huh?” Liu Jing didn’t quite get it.

But Jiang Xinyi was very serious.

She had it clear in her mind that with Zhou Yuwen working so hard, she had no right to waste time. She wanted to become as outstanding as him, so when the company went public, he would notice her, and she would make him regret it!

At this moment, Zhou Yuwen was unaware that just a few bits of news about him had changed the life attitude of a young heiress, previously ready to let things slide. Not only did she plan to work at the family company, but she also intended to establish a listed company on her own.

Right now, Zhou Yuwen was invited to attend Liu Dongqiang’s private party.

The party was held at Liu Dongqiang’s villa in New York. The villa had evidently been meticulously maintained. Though it was a private event, being a top-notch business gathering, some white people who had partnerships with these top brass were also invited.

In addition, some foreign students were invited as volunteers to serve as translators and waitstaff, ostensibly allowing them to “broaden their horizons.”

Incidentally, it was at such an event that Zhang Tianze got to know Liu Dongqiang.

When Zhou Yuwen arrived with Lu Wanting, the banquet had already started.

Liu Dongqiang was joyfully chatting with Zhang Tianze and several people he might or might not know. His Mandarin still carried a hard Su Bei accent, but no one pointed it out; they listened with smiles.

Seeing Zhou Yuwen approach, Liu Dongqiang warmly greeted, “Brother, you’re here.”

He pulled Zhou Yuwen over and introduced him, saying, “This is the one I’ve often mentioned to you all.

“That talented young brother from my hometown.” Zhou Yuwen’s and Liu Dongqiang’s families lived not too far apart, so Liu Dongqiang, to express closeness, directly said they came from the same place.

The people chatting with Liu Dongqiang had indeed heard Zhou Yuwen’s name often in recent days. Upon seeing him in person, their first thought was how young he really was.

This young fellow really was young.

In this meeting, Liu Dongqiang introduced Zhou Yuwen primarily to Li Qingguo and his wife, who had just arrived in New York.

Currently, Dangdang was doing quite well, riding the e-commerce wave of the era. Recently, Dangdang’s stock price had increased by 30%. The couple hadn’t fallen out yet and seemed to be getting along harmoniously.

Li Qingguo was fond of drinking and approached Zhou Yuwen with a glass to toast.

But his wife stopped him, giving him a reproachful look and reminding him about his health, telling him to drink less.

Everyone laughed heartily after hearing this; even Li Qingguo joined in, comically bowing to his wife and saying, “As you command, my dear wife!”

This made everyone burst into even more laughter.

Liu Dongqiang then remarked in his Su Bei-accented Mandarin, “Qingguo really loves his wife.”

“Of course, who wouldn’t love such a wife?”

Apart from them was Mr. Jia, who had yet to return.

Mr. Jia was in standard programmer attire, wearing a black T-shirt and jeans. He was tall and not very talkative. He and Liu Dongqiang hadn’t really had any dealings.

This time, he came because he heard the young stock god Zhou Yuwen would be there.

Mr. Jia was eager to meet the young stock god.

Moreover, he was currently seeking some financing, hoping the young stock god might invest a bit.
