Picking Up a Gorgeous CEO for a Wife

36: Chapter 0036: Playing with the Leftovers 36: Chapter 0036: Playing with the Leftovers I have to admit, listening to Gu Chen and his buddies talk about investments, casually throwing around figures in the tens and hundreds of millions, Su Ziyan gained a lot of insight.

So, investments could be played this way, one could actually bluff their way through?

The eyes of the girlfriends of Gu Chen and his friends twinkled.

Wow, they really hadn’t chosen the wrong guys!

Their men were so badass!

One by one, they fantasized about acting coy to earn a designer handbag later.

Then looking at Qin Yu, who sat there silently with his eyes closed, resting.

A few girls sneered dismissively—putting it nicely, Qin Yu was being mysterious; not so nicely, he just couldn’t get a word in!

Wang Ying, Han Jian’s companion, asked as if it were an afterthought, “Why is Mr.

Qin so quiet?

Has he drunk too much?”

“No, I haven’t drunk too much.

Why, do you want to propose a toast?”

Qin Yu opened his eyes and grinned.

Wang Ying quickly shook her head and laughed, “No, no, no, Mr.

Qin, you are a legend in drinking, how dare I compete with you?

I’m just curious, given that you can hold your liquor, Mr.

Qin must attend a lot of social events.

Why don’t you share your thoughts on the domestic economic situation?”

Upon hearing this, Su Ziyan’s face suddenly became unnatural—wasn’t this an obvious issue?

Qin Yu didn’t understand anything at all!

He probably didn’t even know which way the doors to the New York Stock Exchange opened, how could he offer any opinions?

Everyone brightened up at Wang Ying’s words; Qin Yu was a tough guy with an impressive alcohol tolerance, and no one really had a way to handle him in a short time.

Wang Ying’s words illuminated a bright path for everyone.

“Yingying, that’s something you might not know, Mr.

Qin has such strong combat ability, which shows he’s a man who charges into the fray, he isn’t suited for orchestrating strategies behind the scenes.

It’s no wonder Mr.

Qin isn’t aware of the domestic economic situation,”

Han Jian explained, seemingly kindly.

Gu Chen smiled slightly; Han Jian, this guy, could really insult someone without using a single curse word.

His comments clearly meant, no matter how strong you are, Qin Yu, you’re just a muscle man for us, the real masterminds are the individuals behind the scenes.

“Mr.

Qin, you don’t need to be downhearted; after all, these things are relatively simple.

Since we are such good friends, whenever you need it, I will surely explain the domestic economic situation to you in detail,”

“Mr.

Qin, if Gu alone isn’t enough, we can also take turns helping out,”

Gu Chen’s other lackeys also pitched in.

A few girls covered their mouths and giggled, their eyes filled with undisguised disdain.

Just earlier, they were envious of Su Ziyan as her man had treated her to top-grade foie gras and white truffles.

But now, that envy quickly evaporated, completely turning into contempt.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Yu became the target of everyone’s attacks, and though he was the one being ridiculed, Su Ziyan felt her pretty face burning up.

To avoid further embarrassment, Su Ziyan gently shook Qin Yu’s arm, “Qin Yu, we’ve eaten enough, shall we go?”

“Go?

Why should we go?

I haven’t eaten my fill yet.

And by the way, this Kobe beef is not bad; honey, would you like another piece?”

Qin Yu forked another piece of Kobe beef into his mouth and chewed vigorously.

“I’m full,”

Su Ziyan was about to die of frustration!

Never mind that she had eaten her fill, she could have been filled on irritation alone.

With great effort, Su Ziyan managed to suppress the urge to curse out loud.

But Qin Yu, the damn scoundrel, didn’t seem to care at all—didn’t he feel even a hint of embarrassment?

Su Ziyan wished she could stuff all the dishes on the table into Qin Yu’s mouth!

Eat, eat, eat!

Is that all you know, don’t you have a shred of shame?

Of course, she wouldn’t say that out loud.

Seeing that Qin Yu was not taking the bait and was still eating and drinking heartily, Qu Xiaoting added fuel to the fire with a smile.

“Let’s save it, everyone, no use playing music before the oxen, Mr.

Qin isn’t interested in what you’re talking about.

Right, Mr.

Qin?”

Everyone looked at Qin Yu with smiling eyes, sure that after such humiliation, Qin Yu couldn’t possibly stay a second longer, could he?

Being singled out by Qu Xiaoting, Qin Yu could no longer feign ignorance, grabbed a pigeon, and took a big bite, mumbling, “Miss Qu is right, I am really not interested in what you all are talking about.”

Hearing this, Su Ziyan was utterly disappointed in Qin Yu.

She hung her head in annoyance, regretting why she had brought Qin Yu at all.

See, his cover was blown, wasn’t it?

The offspring of Luo City’s four major families truly were not that easy to deceive.

The entire western restaurant burst into a suppressed laughter.

From the start of the birthday party up to now, everyone had been dominated by Qin Yu and had finally found a way to strike back at him, and everyone felt great.

“Mr.

Qin, why don’t you tell us, what are you interested in?

Let’s discuss something that interests you.”

Qu Xiaoting looked at Qin Yu with a gleeful smile.

“Discuss what interests me?

Are you sure?

I’m afraid the topics I’m interested in might be too tough for you all!”

Qin Yu lifted his head and took another big bite of the pigeon.

For some reason, Su Ziyan suddenly grew worried, fearing that Qin Yu would bring up some uncouth topic.

Su Ziyan kept shooting glances at Qin Yu, but sadly, it was as if he didn’t see them at all, showing no reaction whatsoever.

“Speak freely and boldly, as long as you bring it up, we can certainly discuss it.

Right, everyone?”

Qu Xiaoting scoffed disdainfully, thinking what high-end topic could Qin Yu possibly discuss?

“Xiaoting is right, Mr.

Qin, just say it, from astronomy to geography, we can talk about anything,”

Gu Chen said confidently, coming from a family of scholars.

“Alright then, since everyone is so enthusiastic, I shouldn’t let you all down, right?

Hmm, this pigeon is really delicious.”

Qin Yu put down the pigeon and licked his greasy fingers with his tongue.

“Hahaha, if Mr.

Qin is talking about this pigeon, I admit, we definitely can’t compete with your crudeness.”

Seeing Qin Yu licking his fingers, Qu Xiaoting shook her head, lost for words.

“Yes, yes, Mr.

Qin, you win.

We admit defeat.”

Gu Chen shrugged, making an “I give up on you” expression.

Su Ziyan’s face turned red as a monkey’s butt, how could she bring such a crude man to such a high-end event?

It was like she was making things difficult for herself.

If there was a crack in the ground, Su Ziyan would definitely dive right in.

Everyone looked at Qin Yu with mocking eyes, sure that Qin Yu must be mortified.

But to everyone’s surprise, Qin Yu didn’t seem to catch the sarcasm and nodded seriously.

“You should indeed admit defeat.

What I’m interested in are the NASDAQ indices and the transaction volumes of the New York Stock Exchange.

The domestic economic conditions you talk about are too inferior, too outdated.

They are all leftovers from my playtime.”
