Chapter 19 - Chapter 18: The Stock Market Triangle

"What if this news is true?" Li Yanqian asked the people in front of her. She wasn't angry because based on her performance and grades in school, no one would think that a student who frequently skipped classes would possess this ability.

She had no intention of relying on her identity to gain the appreciation or admiration of those around her because such things were only temporary and would fade away with her resurrection.

In her previous life, she had also been an economics student in the show, so she still had knowledge about the development of the economic world and current news.

Because of this, she could accurately predict the direction of the stock market and later became a member of Song Jinglong, the "hand of the stock god." With her involvement and assistance, the investments she made rarely went wrong, except for a few minor mistakes.

"Student Li Yanqian, you haven't attended my economics class in the past few days," said Wei Dongsheng, the economics professor. He didn't question what Li Yanqian said but stated a fact that made the other teachers present shake their heads.

"I'm sorry, Professor Wei. I've been busy lately..." Li Yanqian felt a cold sweat forming as the teacher pointed out her habit of skipping classes. Whether in reality or in the show, the guilty conscience was the same.

"Li Yanqian, this news has been released. We want you to deny it and apologize in front of the media. If you agree, we'll arrange a press conference," Guo Rongrong, sat down and looked at her.

Apologize? That wouldn't work.

"If I can verify the authenticity of this news, will I be allowed to return to the dormitory immediately?" Li Yanqian asked.

Seeing that Li Yanqian still insisted on her stance, the authorities couldn't sit still. Guo Rongrong helplessly and amusingly shrugged at the others, expressing her incomprehension.

[Let's wait for the truth. I have a feeling these people will be proven wrong.]

[She probably needs Fu Ying's help, right?]

Unexpectedly, Li Yanqian made a video call right then and there.

Song Jinglong's hearty voice came through the call, and Wei Dongsheng was nearly taken aback and slipped off the bench in surprise. While the others may not have recognized Song Jinglong's voice since they weren't from the economics department, Wei Dongsheng was well aware of it, especially with the recent buzz surrounding Zotye in the past two days.

"Song Jinglong?!" Wei Dongsheng stood up.

Li Yanqian nodded and said to Song Jinglong, "I had some issues on my end. Is it convenient for you now?"

Wei Dongsheng calmly took the phone from Li Yanqian's hand to join the video call, while Guo Rongrong beside him was so surprised she could have fit an apple in her mouth. The video indeed showed Song Jinglong himself, without any signs of photoshopping!

But what was the deal with all those nicknames? Why did Li Yanqian call Song Jinglong "Playboy"?

"Don't worry about such trivial matters," Li Yanqian said to Wei Dongsheng.

"..."

Ten minutes later, Li Yanqian walked out of the office as usual. Outside, a group of people was waiting to see what would happen.

"Yanqian, is the news that's trending true?" Gu Yao was so worried she followed Li Yanqian. For some reason, when she recalled the conversation about Fuying in the dormitory, she couldn't help but think the news might be true.

"It is true," Li Yanqian replied with a smile.
