For some reason, when he saw this photo, he felt a little emotional and a myriad of thoughts crowded into his mind.
In the blink of an eye, they had already grown up. Time really flew.
At the thought of this, Lu Ming carefully placed the photo frame in his car. He smiled in reminiscence. If only time could stop at this moment.
Unfortunately…
The ringing of his phone broke the silence. He picked up the call and asked, “What is it?”
“We have withdrawn all the money invested in Dogecoin and those that we earned.”
Ji Yu’s slightly hoarse voice came from the other end, like the aftereffect of talking too much. In fact, it was true. In order to get things done quickly, she shouted at the top of her voice to direct those people.
“Alright, I understand.”
Lu Ming paused for a moment as if he thought of something. He asked, “Have you withdrawn the money that you invested?”
He naturally had to show concern for his senior who had been taking care of him.
“Don’t worry, I’ve already withdrawn all of them.”
Ji Yu said casually. She was already waiting for Dogecoin to plummet. She wanted to see the expressions of those who said that their boss did not know anything behind his back!
After hanging up the phone, she was about to return to the office to vet documents when her friend, who usually had a good relationship with her, stopped her. “Ji Yu, are you sure our boss was talking about withdrawing the investment and not continuing to invest? Based on the current trend, the price of Dogecoin can still increase.”
She was feeling very nervous now because the boss’s actions had aroused their suspicions.
Should we retreat or not?
This was too confusing.
They could not bear to part with the immediate benefits, but they could not afford to lose so much money.
When they saw someone run over to ask, those employees also popped their heads out to observe the situation.
Ji Yu glanced at them and said, “If you’re so sure, where did you get the news?”
“This…”
Of course, it was her own conjecture, but her friend obviously knew that the news was unreliable. After all, she was not a professional and knew nothing.
“So far, has CEO Lu made any wrong decisions?”
Ji Yu asked.
The girl scratched the back of her head. Indeed, all this time, Lu Ming’s decision had never gone wrong. Be it cooperation or the current investment, she had benefited from him and earned so much money for no reason.
Then…
Is it certain that we would lose money?
Is it really possible? she wondered.
Not long ago, she had specially asked professionals and they said that one would not lose money buying Dogecoin.
Ji Yu raised her eyebrows slightly and said, “That’s all I have to say. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I just hope that when the time comes, you won’t lose money and blame me for not saying anything. You guys are much luckier than those people outside who don’t know anything. Also…
All of you, better watch your mouths and don’t tell anyone everything. Otherwise, if I find out who it is that disrupts CEO Lu’s plan, bear the consequences!”
With that, she left.
They looked at each other.
On the other side, Lu Ming drove to the bridge. He crossed his arms and leaned on the armrest, quietly looking at the sparkling river surface. For some reason, his mind was filled with Chu Jinyu’s every frown and smile.
Ever since he got the system, his goal had been to suppress Lu Yaohua and the other two. Other than taking revenge, he wondered if he could do something else.

Just as he was lost in his thoughts, a startled man’s voice came from afar. “You are… Lu Ming!?”
He followed the voice and saw a handsome young man in casual clothes greeting him. Isn’t this my good friend from university—Feng Lianghui?
Back then, when they were in school, Feng Lianghui was always there for him. When he had no food, he would give him food. When he did not have money to pay for all sorts of things, the other party would borrow money to pay for them. However, ever since graduation, the relationship between the two of them faded because they were busy with work.
“What a coincidence. I came out for a walk today and bumped into you.”
Lu Ming walked forward and gave him a hug. “It seems that you’ve been doing well recently. You even bought a Rolex?”
“Hahahaha, it’s alright. I’m starting a business now. I made some money.”
Feng Lianghui paused and looked at the striking sports car. He said in surprise, “Aren’t you living better than me? You actually bought a Koenigsegg ghost sports car so quickly, and it’s a limited edition. The last time I saw this car, it was in a magazine!”
He patted Lu Ming’s shoulder and said, “Alright! You’ve become rich so quickly. Tell me, which company’s senior manager are you now?”
“My boss lent me this car. It’s not as good as you think. I only read documents and such in the company now.”
Lu Ming hid part of the truth and said.
“That’s not bad! Your salary must be quite high, right? The fact that the boss lent you such an expensive car means that you two have a good relationship!”
Feng Lianghui asked covetously, “Can I try it?”
“You can do whatever you want.”
Lu Ming smiled.
After Feng Lianghui rubbed his hands nervously, he carefully touched the car and clicked his tongue in wonder. “These sleek lines and this color… It’s sheer pleasure!”
“Then why don’t you borrow the car?”
Lu Ming asked.
Feng Lianghui quickly shook his head and said, “How can I do that? If I hit something, I can’t afford to pay for it.”
Seeing that he was so resistant, Lu Ming did not force him. He said, “Get in the car. Let’s find a place to catch up!”
“Alright!”
Feng Lianghui suppressed his excitement and sat nervously in the front passenger seat. His gaze accidentally fell on the photo frame in front of him and he said in surprise, “Since when did you have a girlfriend? Seriously…”
Before he could finish speaking, he focused his gaze and realized that the beautiful woman on the left of the photo had recently appeared on TV. He remembered that if he was not mistaken, she was the successful entrepreneur who had given a speech at an entrepreneurs’ conference—Chu Jinyu?!
He looked at the photo and then at his good brother. “Wait, you just said that this is your boss’s car… You, you couldn’t have been kept by Chu Jinyu, right?”
“Bullsh*t! We were just childhood friends.”
Lu Ming said casually.
“Just?!”
Feng Lianghui said in surprise, “Do you know how many people want to befriend her? You’re really lucky. You actually grew up with this person!”
Someone like Chu Jinyu was someone he could only dream of but not reach in his lifetime. He never expected his good friend to know her!
He looked at the photo and teased, “Does she like you? Even a blind person can tell the affection in her eyes, right?”
Lu Ming, who had become blind for no reason, was silent.
