Film and Television: Bao Zong has finance in his left hand and entertainment in his right.

The middle-aged woman is named Mary Morgan, a member of the Morgan family, and the supervisor of Morgan Stanley International's actions against the Hong Kong stock market.

John was in charge of the operations, while Mary was in charge of overseeing the operations.

Seeing that John had calmed down, Mary spoke again: "I heard that the other party has been shorting the market index with us from the very beginning, is that true?"

John replied, "Yes, madam, the other side entered the market in sync with us in the very first wave. In the past few days, they have been competing with us for the money that the securities firms invested in to rescue the market. It's really hateful, and it has made us lose a lot of money."

Mary remained calm and composed, saying, "It's no coincidence that you were able to enter the game at the same time as us during the first wave of the competition. You need to investigate yourself!"

John was startled upon hearing this: "Madam, do you mean there's a mole among us? A mole leaked our plans?"

Mary nodded and said, "Otherwise, what a coincidence that the other side was able to enter the arena at the same time as us!"

Mary's reminder prompted John to start thinking.

After a moment, John shook his head and said to Mary, "Madam, I think it's unlikely that there's a mole. Before this operation, I confiscated all the phones of the group's traders. They couldn't contact the outside world at all. Moreover, before I gave the order to carry out the operation, no one except you and me knew the details of our operation, let alone the exact entry time."

Mary 2.9 sneered: "John, you're too confident. You seem to have forgotten that, besides the phone, each of those traders has a computer. They can transmit information to the outside world from their computers the moment you give an order."

John's expression turned cold, and he nodded in agreement, saying, "That is indeed possible. Don't worry, Madam, I will investigate the matter of the mole. But now that someone has figured out our plan, do we need to change our plans?"

Mary was silent for a moment before replying to John.

"We originally planned to take three months to haul in the nets, but it seems we have to do it sooner. Otherwise, we'll end up with nothing once the fish are on land. Starting tomorrow, John, speed up the net-hauling process. We need to get out of here as soon as possible, or we won't be able to leave later!"

"Yes, Madam, I understand what to do!"

Chapter 157 A Little Incident Where the Princess Helped (Please Subscribe)

Twelve hours later.

When Liu Xiaobao was woken up by Su Jie for the third time, he glanced at the Hong Kong stock market information on his computer and was no longer sleepy.

"Quickly, Miss Hu, get up and go wake them up to get ready for work!"

Hu Ruoling, who was sleeping on the sofa, was startled awake by Liu Xiaobao's loud shout.

She wasn't annoyed at being suddenly woken up; instead, she immediately followed Liu Xiaobao's instructions and ran out of the office to wake up the traders.

When Hu Ruoling returned to her office, she was almost fully awake: "President Bao, everyone's awake. What are the instructions?"

Liu Xiaobao didn't even look up, clicking the mouse as he gave instructions to Hu Ruoling.

"The other party is about to close the net and run away. Go tell them to short all the stocks listed on the Hong Kong stock market, and try to spread the funds evenly so that the difference between high and low prices is not too great!"

"Okay!" Hu Ruoling responded without hesitation, then immediately turned around and ran out to relay Liu Xiaobao's orders.

After Hu Ruoling left, Liu Xiaobao himself was typing rapidly on the keyboard and mouse, barely having a moment to spare.

When Hu Ruoling returned to the office, she suddenly noticed that Liu Xiaobao's expression was a bit off; he seemed to be in a lot of pain.

Seeing this, Hu Ruoling couldn't help but ask, "President Bao, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Liu Xiaobao kept his eyes glued to the computer screen, but still managed to reply to Hu Ruoling, "Yeah, I do feel a bit unwell!"

"Mr. Bao, why don't you take a break?"

Liu Xiaobao still didn't look at Hu Ruoling: "No, this is a critical moment. If I leave even for a second, Hong Kong's wealth could be lost by over a hundred billion!"

"Mr. Bao, where are you feeling unwell? Shall I give you a massage?"

This time, Liu Xiaobao didn't reply immediately. Instead, he hesitated for about ten seconds before continuing to operate the computer and saying something to Hu Ruoling.

"I'm not feeling unwell, I just can't hold it in anymore, Miss Hu, quick, bring me that flowerpot by the window, I need to pee!"

Hearing Liu Xiaobao's words, Hu Ruoling blushed deeply, but after hesitating for three seconds, she still followed Liu Xiaobao's instructions and went to get the flowerpot.

Liu Xiaobao wasn't deliberately teasing Hu Ruoling; he had just been woken up by Su Jie and immediately started using the computer, so he didn't have time to go to the bathroom.

Moreover, Liu Xiaobao wasn't just bluffing Hu Ruoling; he was telling the truth. If he left at this point, it was entirely possible that being a step behind Morgan Stanley International Fund could result in the loss of over 100 billion Hong Kong dollars in wealth.

So Liu Xiaobao could only operate the computer while enduring the pain.

But as the saying goes, everyone has three urgent needs, and it's very uncomfortable to force yourself to hold them in when they come. That's exactly what happened to Liu Xiaobao at that moment.

However, after Hu Ruoling took the flowerpot, she did nothing else.

While operating the computer, Liu Xiaobao didn't even look at Hu Ruoling as he said, "Miss Hu, please help me. I'm really busy right now. Could you please help me out? Quick, quick, I really can't hold it in any longer!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Ruoling wanted to go out and find Su Jie to come in, but seeing Liu Xiaobao's distressed expression and hearing his anxious tone, Hu Ruoling ultimately gave in.

With a flushed face and trembling hands, she unzipped Liu Xiaobao's pants, then pulled out his penis with trembling hands and aimed it at the flowerpot.

"Baby... Mr. Bao, that's enough, you can pee now!"

Liu Xiaobao had no interest in experiencing any romantic encounters at the moment. Upon hearing Hu Ruoling's words, he was like a tap that had been turned on, and he immediately started to release the water.

After a few shivers, Liu Xiaobao finally felt better.

"Alright, Miss Hu, could you please do one more thing and put it back for me?"

At this moment, Hu Ruoling's face was almost red with embarrassment, but when she saw that Liu Xiaobao was staring straight ahead and his hands were constantly operating the computer, she realized that Liu Xiaobao really couldn't free his hands.

Since we've already met before, although I'm still a little embarrassed, I don't have as many concerns anymore.

Blushing, she shoved her little brother back in and carefully zipped up Liu Xiaobao's zipper.

"Thank you, Ms. Hu!"

Liu Xiaobao's eyes were fixed on the computer screen. He didn't see Hu Ruoling's face, but he didn't forget to thank her.

After thanking him, Liu Xiaobao continued to focus on his stock trading and didn't take the little incident of the princess helping him to heart.

Hu Ruoling blushed as she carried the flowerpot away. When she went to the bathroom to wash her hands, she couldn't help but stare blankly at her still trembling hand.

Five minutes later, Hu Ruoling returned to Liu Xiaobao's office.

Seeing Liu Xiaobao still focused on his work, Hu Ruoling's complexion, which had returned to normal, slowly turned red again, and she looked shy.

However, she didn't make a sound, afraid of disturbing Liu Xiaobao who was concentrating on his work.

Liu Xiaobao was completely absorbed in stocks and didn't notice Hu Ruoling's change in expression.

At this moment, Liu Xiaobao had already discerned Morgan Stanley International Fund's intentions.

He simply kept using his funds to short sell one Hong Kong stock after another, competing with Morgan Stanley International Fund to seize the wealth outflow from those stocks.

With Liu Xiaobao and Morgan Stanley International Fund simultaneously shorting the stock, the share prices of all the listed stocks on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange plummeted.

Seven days later, the Hong Kong stock market index fell below the 7,000-point mark, dropping to 6,968 points.

Upon seeing this large inventory, Liu Xiaobao was somewhat bewildered.

According to what he read in his textbook, the Hong Kong stock market index should not fall to this level of 657 until 1995.

Only thirteen days have passed since the incident on January 4th, and the Hong Kong stock market index has already fallen to this point, with a further downward trend expected, completely deviating from historical norms.

So on that very day, Liu Xiaobao stopped all the traders.

Things had gone beyond his expectations and deviated from the original historical timeline, so Liu Xiaobao had to think things through.

After letting the traders and Hu Ruoling stop and rest, Liu Xiaobao himself did not rest.

He sat quietly in front of the computer and began to think seriously.

After thinking it over and over for more than an hour, Liu Xiaobao finally came to his own conclusion.

"It must have been because of my involvement that Morgan Stanley International Fund sped up its cleanup, shortening the originally planned cleanup time to half a month. I suppose Morgan Stanley International Fund has already withdrawn its money and left by now!"

After reaching this conclusion, Liu Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief.

The withdrawal of Morgan Stanley International Funds signifies the end of this battle.

However, even with this speculation, Liu Xiaobao couldn't be sure that his speculation was 100% accurate.

So he had no intention of dismissing the traders, and he summoned Su Jie and instructed Su Jie to wake him up every three hours.

After finishing all this, Liu Xiaobao finally lay down on the table to rest...

Liu Xiaobao's guess was correct.

While Liu Xiaobao and his group were resting, John and Mary from Morgan Stanley International Fund were planning to take a flight to leave Hong Kong.

However, at this moment, in the restroom of Hong Kong Airport, a curly-haired white man was kneeling in front of John.

John stared coldly at the man and said resentfully, "Rick, I never imagined that it would be you who betrayed our conglomerate's trade secrets."

The white man knelt on the ground, trembling: "Mr. John, I didn't, I didn't!"

John scoffed, "You still won't admit it? Do you think the emails you sent to the DuPont Group were secretive? If I didn't have solid evidence, how could I have singled you out?"

Upon hearing John's words, the white man was terrified: "Mr. John, I was wrong, I beg you, please forgive me this time, I will never dare to do it again!"

John didn't answer, but instead gave a wink to a black man behind the white man. The black man nodded slightly, and then, catching the white man off guard, he stabbed him in the neck with a needle.

Within three seconds, the white man foamed at the mouth and died.

Only then did John coldly utter a single sentence towards the white man's corpse.

"You betrayed the interests of the conglomerate, and you think you can do it again? You're dreaming! If I don't deal with you, I'll be the one who dies!"
