Reborn with Consumption System

On the 22nd, Wednesday.

The A-share market, after a prolonged bearish period, finally staged a strong rebound below the 2,000-point level, surging significantly for the second consecutive day.

Market sentiment immediately improved, with nearly 300 stocks hitting their daily limit.

On the same day, Jiao Fangyan successfully established two-thirds of her position.

Subsequent operations hardly required Han Lie's intervention.

As an outstanding trading manager, she was far more professional than Han Lie when it came to handling large funds and executing trading plans.

Daxia and Shitou, two part-time student interns eager to learn, didn't even go home for the holidays. Instead, they moved their luggage directly into the company, working under Jiao Fangyan's direction with such passion that they were drenched in sweat.

They both cherished this opportunity greatly and each showed considerable potential.

Han Lie, on the other hand, started to slack off in the afternoon—his legal representative had arrived.

「...」

Yu Yun had felt miserable for most of the night. She woke up early and then spent the morning lying alone in her dorm room, lost in a daze.

Although she wasn't academically gifted, as a finance student, she knew some basic common sense. For example, one couldn't casually become a company's legal representative.

She didn't know what Han Lie intended to do with this company, but she was sure it wasn't for anything good, and good things rarely came her way.

In fact, this was precisely what made Yu Yun most uncomfortable. Couldn't you at least try to fool me, to lie to me?! At least then I could pretend to be blissfully ignorant, instead of having to abandon all self-respect and accept your blatant discrimination...

Han Lie's attitude was clearly one of patronizing pity, and the laughable part was, this pity only offered her a chance to be the scapegoat. The meaning was obvious: only by shouldering this blame first would she have a chance to get closer to him.

Yu Yun felt profoundly humiliated.

What was even more devastating was that, in the face of such humiliation, she couldn't muster the courage to say no immediately.

In fact, even after a whole night had passed, refusal was still not her first option.

This was undeniable; she couldn't lie to herself.

Lying in bed until noon, Yu Yun felt hungry but had no appetite. Lazily climbing out of bed, she immediately noticed two containers of instant noodles on Xi Luting's desk. It must be nice to have a constitution that doesn't easily gain weight, to be able to eat any junk food you want...

Yu Yun laughed at herself mockingly, then turned to boil water and opened a container of instant noodles.

Just as she was absentmindedly shoveling noodles into her mouth, someone unexpectedly arrived—Fang Feifei had suddenly returned to the dorm.

"Huh? Fei Fei... you haven't left yet?" Yu Yun felt somewhat awkward.

Fang Feifei glanced at the instant noodles before her with disdain and retorted, "After a big meal yesterday, how come you're eating instant noodles today?"

Ever since the conflict between Xi Luting, Yu Yun, and the others had escalated, Fang Feifei had unequivocally broken ties with Yu Yun.

Naiyun's face darkened at the question, and her temper flared. She retorted on the spot, "I'll eat whatever I want!"

Fang Feifei smiled playfully. "Of course, no one will care if you eat your own food. But the problem is, you're eating what Ting Ting left behind..."

Wow, she really knew how to rub salt in the wound... Yu Yun was so enraged her chest swelled, F-cup proportions heaving with her fury, yet she was lost for words.

Fang Feifei snorted lightly and silently began to pack her luggage. In a short while, with a BANG, Fang Feifei forcefully slammed the dorm door shut, leaving the defeated Yu Yun alone in the room.

Yu Yun completely broke down.

At the same time, she made a decision.

She forced down the rest of the instant noodles, mouthful by mouthful, drinking every last drop of the broth. Even though she felt nauseous from overeating, she didn't leave a speck.

Then, she turned around and started to dress and put on makeup.

Who cares who left it? I'm going to eat it! So what?! Not only will I eat it, but I'll eat my fill, eat well, and get my money's worth!

Despite feeling queasy, Yu Yun dressed herself modestly and conservatively, then left and hailed a cab.

At 1:00 P.M. sharp, she appeared at the foot of the CITIC Building.

「...」

Assistant Liang looked at Yu Yun, whose impressive physique was hidden beneath thick clothing, and gave a friendly smile.

She knew the girl before her had thought things through; therefore, she would very likely become one of the people Assistant Liang would be looking after.

She wouldn't envy Yu Yun. There could be many Consorts Yu, but there was only one Manager Liang.

"Relax," she comforted Yu Yun with a smile, leading her toward the inner office.

"Alright, thank you, Sister Xiaowu."

Yu Yun was extremely well-behaved, and it wasn't an act—she was genuinely much better at acting deferentially than the likes of Xi Luting, Pan Ge, and Chen Yanfei.

When she entered Han Lie's office, Yu Yun behaved even more obediently.

"Brother, here's my ID card. I'll do whatever you want me to do. You don't need to explain anything to me..."

Han Lie paused his actions. Impressive! No wonder she had that idiot Duan Xiaoyi twisted around her little finger. With such a pliant and adaptable demeanor, who wouldn't be charmed?

Han Lie looked up at her. "Are you sure?"

"Do I need to think about it?" Yu Yun tilted her head and looked back at Han Lie, her face full of affection. "I've always adored you, Brother... I can't tell you how happy I am to be able to help you!"

Ha! The ultimate green tea has revealed her final form ahead of schedule! Han Lie was momentarily stunned, then chuckled; he found this quite amusing. This was the kind of woman he appreciated now—exciting!

Without giving Yu Yun any more instructions, Han Lie called for Lü Shuli, left Yu Yun in her care, and headed to the Magic Capital office. Let them hash things out slowly!

Lü Shuli was especially annoyed when she saw Yu Yun.

She had just gotten rid of Yue Xiu constantly being in her sight, and she hadn't even had the chance to invite Han Lie to visit her new house when another beautiful girl appeared by her bratty younger brother's side.
