“Gosh! It’s increasing!”
Lu Ze’s gaze was fixed on his phone screen. He was overjoyed as he paced around the garden. To celebrate, he even mercilessly cut down the red roses that had been meticulously taken care of.
Assistant Wei walked over when he heard the commotion. Then he glanced at his phone from the corner of his eye. It had indeed increased—in fact, it had doubled. He recalled what Brother Zhang had said—buy Dogecoin, it was a sure win.
Could this be real? he wondered.
However, he was always on his guard. The more seductive this piece of cake was, the more risks he would have to take.
Currently, he did not have much information or any means to access it. That meant that it was not enough for him to risk getting into this maelstrom.
He heaved a sigh of relief.
He would just watch quietly.
After Lu Ze calmed down a little, he patted Assistant Wei on the shoulder and said, “It’s good now. You can’t even compare to me in terms of foresight when it comes to investing. Look, what else can you do? I don’t think my dad has any use for you guys at all. You’re worse than me!”
Are you sure that was your judgment? Who was the one who wanted to invest casually in the beginning? Assistant Wei thought to himself.
If not for Brother Zhang’s tip, would you have made so much money?
Suppressing the urge to lampoon, Assistant Wei smiled and said, “Congratulations, Young Master Lu. As expected of the boss’s son!”
A compliment was all it took.
Although the compliment was perfunctory, Lu Ze did not notice anything wrong. He said, “At least you have good taste! Indeed, I have investment talent. How can it be as bad as dad said? Oh right, did you buy it?”
Lu Ze’s success this time further confirmed his thoughts. If he continued to invest, he would definitely make a killing and impress everyone. He would slap the faces of those who did not look favorably on him previously!
He seemed to be able to foresee those people’s stunned and incredulous faces, as well as the countless bouquets and praises!
It was just that the current progress was still too slow. How long would it take to get this little bit of money? However, he had already invested all his money. He wondered if there was any other money that he could use to invest further.
On second thought, he turned his attention to Assistant Wei. Since he was Lu Yaohua’s trusted aide, his monthly salary must be quite high. Perhaps he had saved more money than him!
There was smugness in his eyes as he thought to himself, I already gave him the perfect answer. No matter what, he should have made some money. Perhaps I can ask Assistant Wei to split his earnings 50-50 with me!
However, his plan fell through before it could even begin.
“… No, I’ve been busy recently, so I didn’t have time to buy them.”
If knowing the answer beforehand was considered a talent, then even an idiot in this world would have talent.
Assistant Wei cursed inwardly.
Lu Ze’s eyes widened. “No?! Are you joking? Or are you lying to me?”
Obviously, he did not think that anyone in this world could resist this temptation. Then he said in disbelief, “Let me see your phone!”
Assistant Wei was a little unhappy, but on account of the fact that Lu Ze was the boss’s son, he took out his phone and clicked to the page. As he had said, he really did not participate in crypto speculation.
“Are you not too smart? I’ve already told you a way to make money, but you actually didn’t do anything? I’m starting to suspect that you used a backdoor to become my dad’s assistant.”
Lu Ze spoke without thinking, completely not taking into account Assistant Wei’s mood.
He clenched his fists silently. Lu Yaohua set very high standards for his employees, and the position of assistant was even more demanding. Even if he got in through the back door, Lu Yaohua would not have arranged such a high position for him. In other words, he had gotten everything with his own abilities.
Lu Ze was just a playboy. In terms of education and knowledge, he could not compare to him, who had graduated from a prestigious university. What right does he have to say such things?
Idiot?
Is he mocking himself? Assistant Wei thought.
In order to stabilize his emotions, Assistant Wei took a few deep breaths. If he had known that Lu Ze’s temper was worse than what was rumored, he would have resigned immediately.
Isn’t he just a rich second-generation heir? Other than his family background, what right does Lu Ze have to show off? he thought resentfully.
At this moment, Lu Ze was like a boss giving orders. He said matter-of-factly, “Since you didn’t buy it previously, then go buy Dogecoin now. We’ll split the earnings 50-50, alright?”
No wonder Lu Ze is so abnormal all of a sudden. It’s to gain benefits from me.
Assistant Wei said with a fake smile, “Sorry, I used all my money to buy an apartment.”
He thought that this excuse would make Lu Ze retreat, but Lu Ze immediately thought of a good idea and said, “Then go borrow from your friend. I dare to guarantee that when the time comes, you can buy not just one apartment but a few apartments. Perhaps you can even reach the peak of your life!”
He’s obviously too pampered and unacquainted with the ways of the world.
He’s really too naive.
If I make money, we do a 50-50 split; if I lose money, wouldn’t my money be gone forever?
Assistant Wei did not say this out loud because he felt that even if he did, Lu Ze would not listen. Instead, he would think that he was envious and jealous.
“I don’t have friends.”
No matter what, he did not want to take any risks.
Lu Ze sneered. Naturally, he could tell that he was unwilling and said, “You don’t even want the money-making opportunity I gave you for free? No wonder you’re still an assistant after working for so long. You don’t have any foresight! Let me tell you, I’m your boss’s son. If you don’t do as I say, believe it or not, I’ll make my dad fire you!”
Assistant Wei was so angry that he almost laughed.
He was not inferior to Lu Yaohua. On the contrary, they were just equal partners. He had given in time and time again to give Lu Yaohua face, but Lu Ze was taking advantage of him!
Do you really think I’m easy to bully? he thought.
Does he even have the gall to adopt a superior tone and give pointers?
A mere rich second-generation heir dares to say that I’m not forward-looking?
If I don’t comply, he threatens to fire me?
He admired Lu Yaohua’s professionalism. After all, he was always working late nights. But to have raised such a son, he must not have a good personality, he thought.
“It’s my money. Even if Boss Lu comes personally, you can’t do this. Young Master Lu, I think you need to understand that this world doesn’t revolve around you.”
Assistant Wei paused for a moment before continuing, “Perhaps Boss Lu and Madam will satisfy all your needs, but I won’t. I’m only responsible for obeying Boss Lu’s orders and supervising you. There’s no need to do anything else!”

At most, he would just move to another company. After all, even at its peak, the Lu Corporation could not dominate Shanghai.
Moreover, the Lu Corporation had yet to recover from its losses.
