First spoiled, then love

Chapter 597 Stock Trading is Risky

Chen Qingrong asked, "What do you need our advice on? Just tell me."

Gao Qiang scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly, "Well, I plan to go all in on the U.S. stock market. What do you think?"

Chen Qingrong was stunned. "You want to buy stocks? Or go all in on U.S. stocks? Are you crazy? What? Did some internal channel tell you that U.S. stocks are going to rise?"

"I advise you to be more rational. You can buy stocks, after all, your sister-in-law also buys stocks. But stocks are really profitable when they go up, but when they fall, it can really cost you your life."

"I suggest you not to put all your eggs in one cage. If you really want to invest in stocks, you should start by learning the basic principles of stocks. If I remember correctly, you know nothing about stocks, right?"

Gao Qiang knew nothing about stocks, and Chen Qingrong also knew nothing about stocks.

Chen Qingrong always felt that this thing was too advanced. He really couldn't understand it or analyze any trends, so Tang Xiaoru was the one who managed all their stocks herself.

This is because the couple have a good relationship and trust each other. If their relationship was a little worse, Tang Xiaoru would not be able to buy stocks so unscrupulously based on her own wishes.

However, Tang Xiaoru has basically made more money than lost since she bought the stocks.

First of all, it’s because she has a powerful father, and secondly, Tang Xiaoru believes in knowing when to quit and she is not greedy.

As long as you are not greedy, you will basically not lose money.

But Chen Qingrong understood Gao Qiang and knew what Gao Qiang was capable of, so after hearing that Gao Qiang wanted to buy stocks, he advised Gao Qiang like this.

Gao Qiang said, "I don't understand. It's mainly because my father-in-law wants to speculate in stocks. He heard from a staff member at a stock exchange that the US stock market is going to rise because things are not going well in the United States these days. So my father-in-law wants to make some money from it."

"Has your father-in-law ever traded stocks before?"

"No, this time I just followed the trend."

Chen Qingrong smiled helplessly, "What I'm most afraid of is people following the trend. After all, the big families can't afford to leave, so the easiest ones to be cut are the retail investors. You should persuade your father-in-law and don't act on impulse."

"It's not easy to make or save money in this environment. Don't lose it all because of a momentary impulse."

Tang Xiaoru also said, "Yes, Gao Qiang, advise your father-in-law not to speculate in stocks casually. If you really want to get involved, I will introduce you to a few friends. You should first understand how stocks work. Don't blindly invest your money in it. This is not really making money."

Gao Qiang nodded, "Okay, Brother Chen, sister-in-law, I'll listen to you. I'll persuade my father-in-law when the time comes. I actually think this thing is not very reliable."

"To put it bluntly, it's just like gambling. People with a strong speculative mentality can try it, and they have to be smart. If you're stupid, you won't be able to figure out how to trade stocks."

Chen Qingrong waved his hand gently.

After waiting for a while, they finally arrived, and then the three of them went in to eat.

After dinner, Chen Qingrong and his wife separated from Gao Qiang. Gao Qiang said that after he returned, he would persuade his father-in-law not to be so impulsive. If their family really wanted to speculate in stocks, they could ask Tang Xiaoru for help and introduce them to someone.

Tang Xiaoru also agreed.

Tang Xiaoru saw that it was still early, so she said to Chen Qingrong, "Husband, it's rare for us to be out today, and the child is with his parents, why don't we go out for a walk? Since I was in the late stage of pregnancy, I haven't been out for a walk much, and now it's finally over. I have to take a breath of fresh air after I get out of prison."

Chen Qingrong said with a smile, "What prison? That's too serious. But if you want to take a look around, I'll go with you."

At this point, Chen Qingrong thought of something. "Oh, by the way, when I woke up this morning and checked my phone, I saw that a new technology park had opened in a certain district and was holding a technology exhibition. Shall we go and take a look?"

Tang Xiaoru mainly wanted to go around and didn't care where to go, so she agreed immediately.

Chen Qingrong drove the car with Tang Xiaoru all the way to the newly opened science and technology park in a certain district.

The sunlight shone through the car window onto their faces, bringing a hint of warmth and comfort. Their moods were just like the weather, bright and expectant.

"I heard that this science and technology exhibition has a lot of new gadgets and many cutting-edge technology displays." Chen Qingrong said to Tang Xiaoru while driving.

Tang Xiaoru smiled and responded: "Then I'd like to see what cutting-edge technology it is."

Soon, they arrived at the Science and Technology Park.

As soon as you step into the gate of the Science and Technology Park, you will be attracted by the magnificent exhibition hall in front of you.

The appearance of the exhibition hall is full of futuristic sense, with streamlined design and silver-gray metal texture, shining brightly in the sun, as if it is a building from the future.

After receiving the tour guide, they couldn't wait to walk into the exhibition hall.

As soon as you enter the exhibition hall, the first thing that catches your eye is a brilliant scene of lights and a variety of high-tech exhibits that are dazzling.

"Wow, look at that!" Tang Xiaoru suddenly exclaimed, pointing at a booth in front.

Chen Qingrong looked in the direction of her finger and saw a humanoid robot flexibly moving its mechanical arms, as if performing an exquisite dance.

The robot's movements were smooth and natural, without any sense of mechanical stiffness.

"This is a newly developed service robot that can perform a variety of complex movements and tasks."

Seeing their interest, the guide at the side took the initiative to introduce it, "It can not only be used for family services, but also in many fields such as medical care and education."

After hearing this, Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru couldn't help but sigh at the rapid development of modern technology.

They continued walking forward and saw a virtual reality experience area full of technology.

"Do you want to try it?" Chen Qingrong looked at Tang Xiaoru with excitement in his eyes.

Tang Xiaoru nodded, and the two of them put on the virtual reality equipment.

In an instant, they seemed to be in a brand new world. That world was full of fantasy and unknown, making them feel as if they had traveled to another time and space.

"It's amazing!" Tang Xiaoru exclaimed, "I feel like I have really come to another world."

Chen Qingrong disagreed, "It's just a more advanced VR. Don't be so surprised."

"Delightful."

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him.

Continuing walking forward, they came to a smart home display area.

Various smart home devices are displayed there, ranging from smart refrigerators, smart air conditioners to smart curtains and smart lights.

"Look, this smart refrigerator can automatically identify the freshness of food and recommend recipes based on our tastes." Tang Xiaoru said, pointing to a refrigerator.

Chen Qingrong showed interest in the smart air conditioner next to him: "This air conditioner seems to be very smart. It can automatically adjust the working mode according to the indoor temperature and humidity." The commentator smiled and explained: "Yes, these smart home devices are connected through the Internet of Things technology, which can achieve intelligent management and control. It makes our lives more convenient and comfortable."

After hearing this, Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru nodded in agreement.

They continued to visit the exhibition hall, constantly discovering new surprises and fun.

Suddenly, Tang Xiaoru stopped and a hint of surprise and confusion flashed in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Chen Qingrong asked when he saw this.

Tang Xiaoru pointed at a man who was talking to someone in front of her: "That man...I seem to have seen him somewhere."

Chen Qingrong looked in the direction of her finger and saw that the man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, looking capable and energetic.

His face looked familiar, but Chen Qingrong couldn't remember where he had seen it.

"Do you think he looks like a celebrity or a public figure?" Chen Qingrong guessed.

Tang Xiaoru shook her head: "No, I have definitely seen him in real life. But I just can't remember where."

They decided to get closer to take a closer look. When they got close to the man, Tang Xiaoru suddenly had an idea: "I remember! He was our colleague in Chenzhu before! I remember he was the Minister of Foreign Trade of Chenzhu at that time."

When Chen Qingrong heard it, he also had some impression.

He said to Tang Xiaoru: "Now that you mention it, I seem to have some impression of him. I remember seeing him when I went to report to you before. What was his name?"

"Li Jun." Tang Xiaoru remembered the other person's name and smiled. "After all, we are old colleagues. Let's go over and say hello."

Chen Qingrong naturally had no objection.

They walked up and greeted Li Jun.

Li Jun was also very surprised and happy to see them.

The three of them chatted and talked about their current lives.

In Tang Xiaoru's words, she had a pretty good relationship with Li Jun when they were in Chenzhu, and their friendship could be said to be beyond that of colleagues.

Chen Qingrong felt that since he was Tang Xiaoru's friend, he was naturally his friend as well, so he was quite enthusiastic towards Li Jun, even though the other party didn't know him at all.

Even after Li Jun learned that Chen Qingrong was now Tang Xiaoru's husband and that they had a pair of twins, the expression on his face was wonderful.

"I never thought I'd meet you here!" Li Jun said with emotion, "Time flies so fast. So many years have passed in a blink of an eye. Sister Tang, you're married and have children now, but I'm still single."

Tang Xiaoru asked, "You haven't found a partner yet? That shouldn't be the case. Your conditions are not bad. Aren't you too picky?"

Li Jun said helplessly, "My requirements are really not high, I just want to find a soulmate, but I haven't found one yet. Forget it, don't worry about it, I will meet one sooner or later. If I don't meet one, I will be single for the rest of my life."

This view on love made Chen Qingrong and Tang Xiaoru nod in agreement.

They are the same type of people as Li Jun. They would rather remain single with high quality than get married just for the sake of getting married.

Fortunately, their marriage was not for the sake of marriage, but out of true love.

As they chatted, they unknowingly walked to the exit of the exhibition hall.

"I really gained a lot today!" Tang Xiaoru said with a smile, "Not only did I see so many novel technological exhibits, but I also met old friends."

Chen Qingrong also expressed deep emotion: "Yes, the speed of development of modern technology is really amazing. Our lives have become better and more convenient because of technology."

"That's right. Development is so fast now. I feel like I won't be able to keep up with the times in about 10 years. I'm an old man."

Tang Xiaoru laughed and punched him.

They said goodbye to Li Jun and left the Science and Technology Museum.

After leaving the Science and Technology Park, Chen Qingrong drove Tang Xiaoru to a nearby large shopping mall.

The shopping mall is crowded and bustling, and there are so many shops that it is overwhelming.

"Let's go shopping today and buy whatever we want." Chen Qingrong said to Tang Xiaoru, his eyes full of pampering.

Tang Xiaoru shook her head and said with a smile: "I don't have anything special I want to buy for myself right now, but I have to choose carefully the baby's clothes."

When talking about babies, Tang Xiaoru's eyes sparkled.

She took Chen Qingrong and walked straight to the children's clothing area. As soon as she entered the children's clothing area, Tang Xiaoru seemed to be under a spell, and her eyes were not enough.

"Wow, look at this little skirt, it's so cute! And this one, this one is pretty too!" Tang Xiaoru picked up one little skirt after another and gestured in front of Chen Qingrong.

Chen Qingrong looked at those small and exquisite clothes and couldn't help laughing: "They are pretty, but the baby grows fast and these clothes will soon be outgrown. You don't need to buy so many."

Tang Xiaoru pouted: "But these clothes are so cute, I just can't help it. You see, the boys' clothes are a bit ugly, nothing special."

Chen Qingrong shook his head helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. Boys' clothes are simpler in design, not as fancy as girls'."

The two chatted while choosing clothes for the baby.

Tang Xiaoru picked up a small shirt and a pair of small pants, and tried on the baby's small hat for a long time. Finally, she nodded with satisfaction and said, "This set is good. I'll buy it."

Chen Qingrong looked at Tang Xiaoru's serious expression and his heart was filled with happiness.

He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are we really not going to hold a full-month banquet for the baby? I was planning to hold it twice and collect two portions of money."

Tang Xiaoru laughed when she heard this: "You are really good at planning! But I think it's too much trouble to hold a full-month banquet, and they are already more than a month old, so it will be too late."

"But if we don't do it, won't those relatives and friends miss an opportunity to give gifts?" Chen Qingrong joked.

Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "You only know how to accept gifts. The most important thing is the baby's healthy and happy growth. If you really want to accept gifts, isn't there still a one-year-old birthday? There are plenty of gifts for you to accept."

Chen Qingrong listened and nodded, stroking his chin. "What you said makes sense. I'll listen to you and not hold a full-month banquet. But I'll plan a good one-year-old banquet so that the baby and us can have good memories."

"The most important thing is to collect membership fees harshly."

The two chatted while choosing clothes for the baby. Time passed unknowingly, and when they walked out of the shopping mall with large and small bags, the sun had already set. But their hearts were full of satisfaction and happiness, because they knew that these clothes and this expectation were full of love for the baby.
