Marrying the Divorced Female Protagonist O After Transmigrating into a Book - Chapter 13

Zhao Xinyu didn’t reply to Sun Qianyi’s message and went downstairs to eat. When she got downstairs, the butler approached and informed her that her brother would not be home for dinner and was working overtime in a meeting at the company. After acknowledging this, Zhao Xinyu finished her dinner and went to the gym for a post-meal stroll.

She still had plenty of time after her simple workout. Zhao Xinyu showered and continued reading the documents. The data sent by her brother’s secretary was all annotated, so Zhao Xinyu read quickly. After finishing and classifying the information on the listed companies, Zhao Xinyu pulled up the stock charts to study them together.

A few leading companies occupy the majority of the market share, and the Zhao family counts among them. As for the Lin family and the Sun family’s businesses, based on Zhao Xinyu’s research, they couldn’t ruin the Zhao family even when combined. Sigh, the Lin family got the wrong target from the beginning and should be more self-aware.

Moreover, the Zhao family isn’t even the most powerful. When she was almost done looking through the documents, it was getting late. I haven’t even checked the assets in the original host’s account all this time. Zhao Xinyu opened her phone and checked. Not bad, nearly 60 million!

Tomorrow, when the stock market opens, she’ll look at funds, stocks, and other instruments and buy some first. Zhao Xinyu went to the bathroom again, washed her face and hands, and then prepared to rest.

Lying in bed, looking at the unfamiliar room, Zhao Xinyu’s mind felt blank. She suddenly remembered she needed to send a message to Sun Qianyi. Looking around, Zhao Xinyu picked up her phone and opened the screen. Sun Qianyi had already messaged her: “Little Xin, good night, Sister is going to sleep.”

Zhao Xinyu: Okay, Sister, good night!

It was already 0:27 AM. Zhao Xinyu put down her phone and drifted off to sleep.

Sun Qianyi saw Little Xin’s message but wasn’t resting yet; she had just messaged Little Xin because it was getting late. She took a bottle of red wine and knelt on the living room floor, drinking. Sun Qianyi couldn’t understand why she had suddenly become so dependent on Little Xin. She wasn’t like this when she saw Little Xin before. Is it because of Little Xin’s pheromones?

That morning, when Little Xin said she would take responsibility for me, did my heart flutter? Sun Qianyi wasn’t sure. She gripped the wine glass and took a sip. Whenever she saw Little Xin’s shy expression, she couldn’t help but want to tease her.

Perhaps, I got carried away too quickly.

Sun Qianyi couldn’t figure it out. She shook her head groggily. Feeling a little cold, Sun Qianyi pulled the throw blanket from the sofa and draped it over herself, continuing to drink until she fell asleep at some unknown time.

The next morning, Kong Hui was startled to see Qianyi sleeping in the living room. “Why are you sleeping here, and why did you drink so much wine?”

Saying this, Kong Hui walked over. She pulled Qianyi up to sit on the sofa, took the throw blanket, and sat down on the sofa as well. “What’s wrong? Why did you drink so much wine?”

“Mom, I’m fine.” Saying this, Sun Qianyi realized her voice was very hoarse.

“Is this related to Xinyu? Or are you worried about my situation?” No matter what, drinking so much wine in the middle of the night is bad. The two of them should be living together. Little Xin being around should be able to keep Qianyi in check.

“No, Mom, don’t worry. I just suddenly wanted a drink and lost control. I’m going to wash up first; then I’ll go find Little Xin.” Sun Qianyi paused, remembering she planned to go see her today.

“Okay, Qianyi. I’m serious this time.” She no longer had any feelings for Sun Yufeng. The only reason she stayed in the Sun family all these years was the fear that the Sun family would sacrifice Qianyi for their benefit. Even with her presence, such a thing still happened. There is no point in staying in the Sun family anymore!

“I know, Mom.” Sun Qianyi said earnestly, looking at her mother. Seeing her mother consider her own well-being is what she wanted most.

Sun Qianyi first rinsed off with warm water. The hot water made her body feel revitalized and alive again. Then, Sun Qianyi soaked in the bathtub for a good while.

After drying her hair, Sun Qianyi chose a dress she liked very much, applied some light makeup, and left home to find Little Xin.

Kong Hui was eating breakfast. She was about to call Qianyi over to eat, but Qianyi spoke first: “Mom, you eat by yourself. I’m going to find Little Xin now.”

“Okay.” Before the word was even out, Qianyi was already out the door. It seems Qianyi really likes Little Xin. She hopes Xinyu and Qianyi can be well together.

Downstairs was the manager of Aimi Mall. He had driven her car over this morning. Sun Qianyi had taken Little Xin’s car home after shopping yesterday, leaving her car in the Aimi garage.

Taking the car key, Sun Qianyi looked at him and said lightly, “Get in the car. I’ll take you to Aimi.”

“Yes, thank you, Miss.”

On the way, Sun Qianyi suddenly remembered the milk tea she drank at the mall, which Little Xin said was delicious. “Later, tell the milk tea shop manager to make a cup of milk tea for every employee this afternoon.”

The manager paused. Miss, speaking in such a cold tone, is actually asking me to treat everyone to milk tea? “Yes, Miss.”

After dropping the manager off, Sun Qianyi immediately drove toward Little Xin’s house.

Zhao Xuan did not go to the company this morning. At breakfast, Little Xin mentioned that she was almost done looking through the data. Zhao Xuan was curious and stayed home this morning to see the results of his sister’s research.

At this moment, Zhao Xuan was following Zhao Xinyu toward her room.

“Brother, let’s be clear first. If you want a copy, you have to photocopy it yourself.”

“Fine.”

Walking to the desk, Zhao Xinyu took out the finished research document and handed it to her brother. “Brother, this is what I’ve researched. Take a look for me. And Brother, you need to read it quickly. I have a lot more data, and I want to see what you know about those companies!”

…

“I understand.” She’s truly my little sister. I just got this in my hands and haven’t even looked at it, and she’s already assigning me tasks.

Who’s the boss, and who’s the sister?

After reading for a while, Zhao Xuan realized the document in his hand was about leading companies, complete with analysis and insight. “Little Xin,” he called. Seeing Little Xin look over, he continued, “If you want to understand these leading companies better, I can send people to investigate. The company also has information; you can go to the company to check it out if you need to…”

Zhao Xinyu smiled. My brother took the bait. “Okay, Brother. If I need to, I’ll tell you in advance before going to the company.”

“Good.”

“Brother, are you done reading?”

“I’ve finished. It’s well done. I need a copy of this too. Let me know when you’ve finished everything, and I’ll have the secretary come over to make copies.”

…

“Okay. Brother, come help me look at the companies I’m looking at now.”

“Alright.”

After researching for a while, Zhao Xinyu’s alarm went off. Watching his sister turn off the alarm, Zhao Xuan curiously asked, “Why did you set the alarm for this time?”

“Brother, you’ll see in a minute.” Saying this, Zhao Xinyu opened the stock market page. Although the Zhao family business is large, it does not heavily involve the stock market. Not heavily involved means they don’t focus too much energy on other companies. Business collaborations are mostly about negotiating share percentages and competition over land, things like that.

“Are you buying stocks?” Seeing the page full of stock price charts, Zhao Xuan was startled. Is my sister going to buy stocks? My sister already has shares in our family company! She doesn’t need to buy more, right?

“Yes, Brother. We can’t just let others earn our money, can we? You agree, right, Brother?” Zhao Xinyu glanced at the stock price trend. It will probably start high today, dip in the middle, and end up flat.

“Little Xin, you don’t need to buy these. If you’re just playing around, I don’t mind. But if you’re trying to make money this way, I don’t think it’s very realistic.” It’s not easy for a company to maintain an upward stock price trend. There are often many external factors that people cannot control.

When Sun Qianyi arrived, the butler said Little Xin was in her room, so Sun Qianyi went straight upstairs to find her.

Knock, knock…

“Who is it? Come in,” Zhao Xuan asked aloud.

At first, hearing the voice, Sun Qianyi paused. It’s a man’s voice! Then she realized it was familiar. Opening the door, Zhao Xuan was sitting next to Little Xin, and both were looking toward the door. “Brother Xuan, you’re home too.”

“Mhm, come in.” Zhao Xuan felt he almost lost control; the corner of his mouth nearly twitched. Sun Qianyi never once called me “Brother” in the four years of college.

“Sister, please sit for a moment. Brother and I haven’t finished talking.”

“Okay, Little Xin, continue.”

“Mhm.” Saying this, she turned back to Zhao Xuan: “Brother, I’m not playing around. I’m using my own allowance money to buy. When Mom and Dad get back, I’ll talk to them about it, and they’ll definitely agree.” Financial products don’t just involve stocks but also futures and others. Making money is fast, but you need to master the rules of these things in this world.

…

“I’m not stopping you from buying. Stock prices are hard to control, and I don’t want you to waste too much time on this. If you want to buy, go ahead. If you run out of money, tell me.”

“Brother, I understand what you mean. Company management is your strength, so you want me to work at the company. But I studied finance. I understand finance and stocks. Brother, give me three months, and I’ll show you what I intend to do.” Sigh, he truly is my biological brother; he’s still funding me even when I’m short on money.

“Fine. Since you brought up working at the company, you can go check out the company now that you’re free. It will help you understand these companies.” Once my sister goes to the company, I’ll slowly talk to her about company matters. I’ll also see if my sister has an aptitude for this. If not, staying home and living off the family is fine too.

“Okay, Brother. If I need to go to the company, I’ll tell you. Studying these things really requires me to go to the company.”

“Good.” As long as you go to the company, I agree to whatever you buy now. “You two chat. I’m going back to my room first.”

“Okay, Brother.” Watching Zhao Xuan leave, she added, “Take care, Brother.”

…

Watching Zhao Xuan leave, Sun Qianyi walked over and sat next to Little Xin. “Are you going to be busy with this all day today, Little Xin?”

“Mhm. Sister, do you understand this?” Sun Qianyi doesn’t look well. Did she stay up late last night?

Sun Qianyi leaned against Zhao Xinyu’s side, resting her head on her shoulder, and shook her head softly: “Brother Xuan and I both studied management. I don’t know much about finance.”

“Mhm, it’s fine. Sister, I still need to be busy for a while. Would you mind entertaining yourself?”

“Mhm,” she replied. Looking at Little Xin’s bed, she asked, “Can I rest on Little Xin’s bed for a bit?” Just sitting on the stool at the foot of the bed, I was already mesmerized by Little Xin’s scent.

“…Okay, Sister, go ahead.” This person is too close. Zhao Xinyu felt her body getting hot.

“Good.” Saying this, Sun Qianyi looked at the red ears in front of her, leaned in, and kissed them, then casually walked to the bed and got in to rest.

…

This woman. Why does she keep launching sneak attacks!

She has no dancer’s integrity!
