Chapter 110 Not Really Alone

Su Yehao really did have an appointment, but it was with his girlfriend.

A few days ago, Yan Liuli called and said that the little wife she found for Fat Cat Koko had given birth to seven kittens. Today, she was going to take a look.

Of course, the main reason was to see Yan Liuli. This was one of the reasons why Su Yehao returned to Casino today.

He didn't have a chance to spend time with her during the Lunar New Year.

Although this woman didn't complain, Su Yehao felt that he should be more aware, so as not to neglect the beauty. He even had Linda Yun get out of the car to help buy a bouquet of roses to bring along, which could barely be considered a small surprise.

He was too famous in Casino, and buying flowers himself would be too high-profile.

Casino was too small. Perhaps he would buy roses in the evening, and tomorrow morning, paparazzi would follow the clues and dig out Yan Liuli's existence.

Su Yehao didn't dare to underestimate those paparazzi.

In order to earn some money, they even dared to rummage through his trash can, which eventually led him to buy a shredder at home and install surveillance cameras next to the trash can on the roadside.

He arrived at a villa near the Municipal Garden by car.

It was a little after five in the afternoon.

Yan Liuli was cooking at home. After she opened the door for Su Yehao, she smiled and accepted the roses, put them in a vase, and said:

"There were too many kittens born this time, so I had to buy milk powder to help Miao Miao feed the babies. When they get a little older, I can send them to the cat cafe to find some good owners for the kittens. I don't have the energy to raise so many cats."

Su Yehao squatted next to the glass cat house in the utility room. The exhaust fan was running 24 hours a day, so there was almost no odor.

He stared at a big-headed kitten for a long time, and smiled: "Koko's fat genes seem to have been passed on to the fattest kitten. Remember to put a high price on it, it's a good breed. Customers who are willing to spend a lot of money to buy a cat shouldn't treat the cat too badly in the future. Raising one or two cats is quite interesting, but raising too many will turn you into a crazy cat lady, and the house will smell."

"I understand, so I only plan to raise Koko and his little wife Miao Miao, so that this fat guy won't be bored when I'm not at home. Do you have any friends who want to raise cats? Giving them away is also fine."

After Yan Liuli asked, she continued, "By the way, the villas developed by your friend seem to have all been sold. The day before yesterday, I saw someone moving into number three, driving a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur. Maybe they even know you."

"What's so strange about knowing me? This place is different from Mid-Levels in Hong Kong. The houses are too close together, and the privacy is average, but it's quite comfortable to live in."

Su Yehao got up, went to the kitchen door to watch Yan Liuli cooking skillfully, and said with a smile:

"I just got back to Casino. Although there's no definite news about splitting up the gambling licenses, someone is researching and discussing it. Lisboa has monopolized this big cake for many years, and others have been unable to get involved. Now that the decision-making power has been taken back, those foreigners no longer have the final say. I think building a new casino is almost a certainty. Looking around, only Taipa Island has land left. In the future, new casinos will definitely be built on Taipa Island. The house prices will probably rise. It's a good deal to buy a house now, but it's a loss to sell a house."

Yan Liuli deeply believed in Su Yehao's vision, and said while stir-frying: "That's really great. You and your father bought so much land, wouldn't you have a chance to make another big profit?"

"Yeah, in addition to real estate, it's also very good for tourism, the economy, and employment. When the tourism company receives tourists, they will remind them that a little gambling is fine. It's almost always a loss, so just experience it. I got land near the beach, close to my father's golf course. I'll build high-end apartments in a few years."

After Su Yehao finished speaking, he picked up a slice of soy sauce beef with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth. The beef shank was chewy.

As a fun story, he told Yan Liuli about helping Baoya Jun resolve his troubles just now. Long Danbiao's attitude was normal.

The gap between the two sides was like a chasm. Not to mention that the old gambling king had specially helped to say hello, even if only Su Yehao showed up, it was expected that the other party would give him some face.

Compared with the troubles Su Yehao had been handling recently, such as the Hong Kong Stock Exchange reform, building a wafer foundry, shorting the NASDAQ index, etc., this could only be regarded as a small trouble, and he didn't need to spend any effort at all.

When sitting at the dining table to eat, Su Yehao asked her, "Are you free these two days? I'm going to New York with one of my partners to invest and study the latest trends in the market. We'll probably stay for ten days or half a month. I can take you to play."

Yan Liuli blinked and nodded, "I'm a little tempted. What are you going to invest in?"

"Shorting the stock market, trying to earn back the money I lost a few days ago. If I miss this opportunity, it seems like it will be difficult to find a chance to make quick money in the next few years. I'm going to bet seven or eight hundred million dollars."

"It sounds very important. Will it bother you if I go with you?"

"No, it's just that if I get busy, I may not have time to accompany you then. I don't know when the NASDAQ index will rise, but some companies that have risen a lot this year seem to be relatively safe, such as Cisco, Oracle, and Qualcomm. Their major shareholders are busy cashing out."

Thinking of losing more than 300 million US dollars, Su Yehao was full of anger. He said while eating, "When AOL was merged with Time Warner Group in January this year, I thought it was a turning point. Who knew the market would struggle to the death, and the rebound was so strong? The NASDAQ rose again today, which is simply incomprehensible."

Biting her chopsticks, Yan Liuli whispered, "The stock market crash isn't a good thing for you either, right? The stock price of Yanwenzi Group will also fall."

Su Yehao said to her in an indifferent tone:

"Anyway, a big drop is already a certainty. The stock price is high or low doesn't really matter. It's just a numbers game on paper. But if I successfully short it, the income will be real money. There's a big difference between the two..."

After eating and drinking enough, Yan Liuli originally wanted to find a movie to watch.

But Su Yehao came to Casino temporarily and had to go back tonight, so he simply seized the time to do something serious and took her to the bedroom.

Because she would have the opportunity to spend some time in New York next, Yan Liuli didn't mind Su Yehao's behavior of running away after sleeping with her.

She more or less understood this guy's difficulties, and also felt that it was better to be careful. She was worried that her willfulness would cause someone's backyard to catch fire, which would damage their relationship and outweigh the benefits.

She didn't have the strength to see him out, so Yan Liuli just waved her hand and said to be careful on the road...

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

After arranging other matters, Su Yehao took Vice President Zheng Yongwen on a private plane and landed in New York, which had just snowed.

Yan Liuli didn't come with him this time.

A friend of hers was getting married and wanted to invite her to be a bridesmaid. The time conflicted, and a relative also came to visit and she wasn't feeling well.

In February, the temperature in New York was so cold that you needed to wear a cotton coat. Su Yehao and Zheng Yongwen stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, and also contacted several consulting companies to ask them to provide the latest information on the battle between the bulls and bears on the NASDAQ.

Only Zheng Yongwen was busy, facing a large amount of data every day, doing research in a daze.

As for Su Yehao, he ate, drank, and strolled around, quite Buddhist.

On February 14th, Su Yehao was in a cafe, crossing his legs and browsing the news online, when a young white girl suddenly came over and took the initiative to strike up a conversation, saying that she could go to a party together in the evening.

After the girl left, Su Yehao held the note with the other party's number and boasted to himself, "It seems that I'm still very charming. The other party shouldn't know who I am, right? I can attract the attention of the opposite sex purely by my face and body."

Linda Yun sat not far away, flipping through the novel in her hand. She didn't even lift her head and said calmly:

"Not necessarily. The security in New York has always been very bad. Maybe after you go to the party and drink a glass of wine, your kidneys and liver will be gone. Leaving you a breath is considered merciful."

"...Do you have to be so ruthless?"

Linda Yun smiled:

"There's no way. Nangong and Jiang Yu both told me to take good care of you when you go out. After I go back, Nangong will give me a Hermes Birkin bag, which is hard to buy. They're afraid that you'll be seduced by white girls. After all, when it comes to worshiping money, New York is second, and only Los Angeles dares to compete for first place. Ahao, your charm is not small..."
