Chapter 383 Xiaotian's Thoughts, Chen Xiu's Total Overseas Funds
The morning light, like a veil of mist, shone into the room and, after being refracted by the floor, shone on the face of the person lying on the bed.

Her long, bracket-like eyelashes trembled slightly, and her tightly closed eyelids suddenly opened, revealing a round, clear almond-shaped eye.

Tian Xinwei kept winking, her eyes starting to dart left and right.

Only when she saw the room's layout did she realize that everything that had happened yesterday was real.

Arrived in New York in the morning, went shopping at Victoria's Secret in the afternoon, went out to buy Lao Gan Ma chili sauce in the evening, and then...

Tsk, if she hadn't experienced it herself, she wouldn't have believed that something like this could happen in New York. Luckily, her boss was there.

Tian Xinwei thought with a slight upturn of her eyes, then lifted the blanket and looked down.

The marks on her skin reminded her of last night's competition; although she lost badly, she felt happy.

Thinking of this, Tian Xinwei turned her head to look at her side, and all she could see was a slightly sunken mark on the pillow.

She sat up, pouted, hesitated for a moment, then suddenly pounced on the pillow, buried her head in it, and began to suckle fiercely…

"What are you doing?"

The sudden sound made Tian Xinwei freeze and stop her infatuated behavior.

She put down the pillow, slowly turned her head to look at the door, and saw Chen Xiu standing there shirtless, with a strange expression on one eyebrow raised.

From Chen Xiu's perspective, he had just gotten up, made a phone call in the living room, and ordered two breakfasts from the hotel reception. When he returned to his room, he saw Tian Xinwei transformed into a "zombie" and pounced on his pillow, frantically nibbling at it...

Their eyes met, and Tian Xinwei coughed lightly twice, pretending nothing had happened, and said, "Good morning, boss!"

"Do you need me to leave for a moment so you can continue?"

"Hmm~, come here for a second."

"..."

Looking at Tian Xinwei's smile, Chen Xiu felt a little creeped out, but still walked to the bedside to see what she was planning to do.

As soon as he arrived at the bedside, Tian Xinwei threw off the blanket and pounced on him with both hands and feet.

Chen Xiu reached out and hugged her, feeling two cool, smooth sensations around her neck. Looking up, she met Tian Xinwei's bright eyes.

Tian Xinwei stared at Chen Xiu with a dazed look in her eyes for a long time, then suddenly leaned closer, wanting to give him a good morning kiss...

"Can you go brush your teeth first?"

Chen Xiu tilted her head back in disgust to avoid Tian Xinwei's mouth.

However, since her neck was already wrapped around his neck, he couldn't escape and ended up being kissed several times in a row.

"Ha! I'll suffocate you with that stench!"

Tian Xinwei opened her mouth and breathed heavily, which made Chen Xiu clap her hands repeatedly before she begged for mercy in a soft voice.

"Boss, I'll never do it again."

"Then why aren't you coming down?"

"I don't want to get down, I want you to hold me a little longer."

"My hands will get very tired this way."

"No way! I know your body; you can hold me for at least half an hour."

"..."

Chen Xiu frowned slightly, staring at Tian Xinwei's smiling face for a moment, then a hint of doubt appeared between her brows.

"I feel like you're acting a little strange today? You're never this clingy before."

"I had no idea you were so wonderful!"

Tian Xinwei said confidently, and used her legs and hands to tighten her grip on Chen Xiu even more.

Hearing this, Chen Xiu was both amused and exasperated: "Didn't you say I was a scumbag? A scumbag is considered good?"

"You're a scumbag now, and you'll always be a scumbag..."

Tian Xinwei smiled and gave her evaluation, then unexpectedly changed the subject, saying, "But that doesn't stop me from liking you."

"Heh, thank you for confessing. Even if you didn't say it, I could feel it."

"Let me finish speaking!"

Tian Xinwei interrupted Chen Xiu, her expression turning serious: "I know you're trying to save face for me, a young woman, and don't want me to sound too humble, but I've been thinking about these words all night..."

Chen Xiu asked curiously, "How could you think things through in that situation?"

"I thought about this afterward, so please let me finish."

Tian Xinwei twisted her body in dissatisfaction, feeling her temper about to flare up again.

Her thin, raised eyebrows reminded Chen Xiu of something familiar, but her anger only lasted three seconds before the big-eyed cutie took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down.

Chen Xiu was secretly surprised, and her expression became serious, indicating that she was listening attentively.

Seeing Chen Xiu nod, Tian Xinwei pursed her lips and said, "I actually had a good impression of you at first, otherwise I wouldn't have chatted with you all the time. Later, because of what happened at last year's annual meeting, you helped me beat up Wang Sicong, which made me feel that you are a good boss."

“I was initially hesitant because you are so successful and I am just a small-time celebrity. If I pursued you, would you suspect that I had ulterior motives? And I would also think about what the people around me would think of me.”

"Last time I asked you to watch anime on set, I used every initiative I could muster in my life, but you jerk already had two girlfriends. I was thinking, since I'm already here, I'm bound to run into a few jerks in my life, so I might as well level up with you first!"

"Pfft!" Chen Xiu couldn't help but laugh, which made Tian Xinwei roll her eyes several times.

After he finished laughing, Tian Xinwei continued, "After we sleep together, I plan to spend some time with you first. After a while, I might not like you as much anymore."

"I never expected that after what happened yesterday... it really feels like a dream. I originally thought New York would be very safe. If you hadn't come, I probably would be dead."

Hearing this, Chen Xiu felt a wave of fear wash over her.

Yesterday, he assumed that Tian Xinwei would stay obediently in her room, and since he was also at the hotel discussing business, he didn't arrange any bodyguards.

The neighborhoods around the Four Seasons Hotel are actually quite safe. Even if you go out for a stroll at night, as long as you don't go far, there shouldn't be any major problems. However, Tian Xinwei chose to take a taxi.

It has to be said, the Sichuan-Chongqing Tyrannosaurus Rex is incredibly bold.

However, considering that she would come knocking on my door at night when she was on set, and now she is flying across the Pacific Ocean alone to find me.

Chen Xiu felt that it was not surprising at all that Tian Xinwei made such a decision.

Fortunately, it was a close call. We just need to be more careful in the future. And after what happened yesterday, Xiaotian has indeed changed a lot...

Thinking of this, Chen Xiu said, "So, you were moved by what happened yesterday?"

"I must have been moved to think about these things and be willing to sacrifice some things. Otherwise, why would I, a perfectly good guy, become your mistress as the fourth one!"

"Xiaosi?"

"Hmm, why are you so surprised? Did you go and take in another one? Am I now the fifth one?"

Tian Xinwei stared wide-eyed at Chen Xiu, wanting to ask him who the other sister was.

Seeing this, Chen Xiu felt that Su Xiao couldn't be included in this category, so she patted Tian Xinwei again: "Hurry up and wash up, breakfast will be delivered soon."

"Am I really Xiao Wu? If you have a new person, who is it? There are only so many people in the company. Bai Lu and Zhou Ye aren't the new person, so the rest are even less likely... Ugh!"

Chen Xiu came to the bedside, pulled her hand away, and threw Tian Xinwei directly onto the bed.

"Hurry up, I have an appointment at noon after we finish eating."

"Hmph! You don't like me, your fifth son, at all..."

Tian Xinwei's feigned tearful complaint was cut short when Chen Xiu turned and left.

However, this evasive attitude also confirmed one thing in her heart: there really was someone else! Hmph, what a scumbag!

……

Living room, on the sofa.

Dressed neatly, Tian Xinwei used the last jar of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce from yesterday as a dipping sauce while eating the sandwich delivered by the hotel, glancing at Chen Xiu sitting to her side out of the corner of her eye.

However, because there was a laptop between them, she often couldn't see Chen Xiu's expression.

Just as Tian Xinwei was peeking around, trying to see what was going on, Chen Xiu turned to look at her and then turned the computer around.

"How about we watch it together?"

"what?"

Tian Xinwei glanced at the screen and found it was covered with red and green lines.

"Are you trading stocks?"

"Just browsing. I'm a long-term investor, but I need to adjust my positions recently."

"Oh, why is it all in English?"

“This is my overseas account.”

When the topic of investment came up, Tian Xinwei immediately lost interest.

Seeing that she wasn't interested, Chen Xiu turned the computer back and continued to check her financial situation.

He started investing in US stocks after selling his last remaining Didi shares to Tencent in 15, focusing on stable growth companies like Tesla, Netflix, and Amazon.

Tesla's market capitalization was at a low of $15 billion in 250. Chen Xiu entered the market at a low point and, after several rounds of buying low and selling high, his share in the account reached 0.45%.

Tesla's stock price has fluctuated in the past few days, with its latest market value at $580 billion, bringing the value of Chen Xiu's shares to $2.6 million.

Tesla still has a lot of room for appreciation in the future, and considering the targeted financing with the already confirmed contract, Chen Xiu definitely won't touch it.

Of the remaining two stocks, Netflix's market value has more than tripled since 15, while Amazon's has quadrupled.

Chen Xiu's initial investment of over 100 million US dollars has now grown to nearly 400 million.

Including the 6 million yuan in mortgage loans from Pinduoduo, he has a total of 10 billion US dollars at his disposal.

This amount is significantly higher than the figure previously discussed with Musk, but it's perfectly normal to hold back some cards in business.

Chen Xiu retrieved the account today to make financial adjustments.

His targeted investment agreement with Tesla requires $5.5 million in funding. If Sam and Ilya agree to the cooperation plan, Open AI will inevitably also need to use a portion of its funds.

Based on this calculation, Pinduoduo's mortgage loan wouldn't be enough, and Chen Xiu had to make a choice to sell some shares.

Amazon's market capitalization is about to exceed one trillion, while Netflix's market capitalization is still hovering around 2600 billion. It seems that the latter has greater potential for appreciation, but the size of the film and television content industry and the e-commerce industry are obviously not on the same level.

Chen Xiu stared at Netflix for a while, and had already made up her mind. She would wait and see what Sam and Ilya had to say.
