"Send me to eat plain porridge? I think you'd better buy a plane ticket back to America as soon as possible, so you don't embarrass yourself here!"

"Still want it? What, you're scared now? Weren't you pretty aggressive just now?"

Chen Wanxian laughed so hard that his glasses reflected a cold light.

Just then, Chen Taotao suddenly spoke, his voice not loud, but clear enough for everyone to hear:

"OK."

Chen Wanxian's smile froze instantly.

A very subtle, almost mocking expression appeared on Chen Taotao's face: "Since Mr. Chen is so generous, then I won't stand on ceremony."

"Mercedes-Benz, I want another 400,000 shares."

boom!

Chen Wanxian was struck dumb, frozen in place. The color drained from his face in an instant, and his lips trembled as he stammered, "You...you still dare to buy it?"

Chen Taotao's mockery became even more pronounced: "Nicknames are really interesting. 'Stock Market Demon,' indeed a master at manipulating people's hearts."

"You acted so arrogantly and confidently just now, weren't you just trying to put pressure on me, to make me think there are plenty of stocks like Meilidu, to make me doubt my judgment, and thus give up on it and try other stocks, right?"

"You put it nicely, saying 'I'll give you as much as you want,' just to make me feel that you're confident and that your beauty is definitely not empty, to lead me in another direction, so as to protect your real weakness."

"Too bad, you underestimate me."

"Have you forgotten what other people call me?"

Chen Taotao took a small step forward, staring at Chen Wanxian's pupils which had instantly contracted, and said, word by word:

"The King of All-in. Once I've made up my mind, I'll bet everything."

"Now, I want another four million shares of Mirador."

"Do you have any more? Are you still willing to give it to me?"

Chen Wanxian staggered backward, his back hitting the cold edge of the trading table. His face was ashen, his eyes filled with terror and despair, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably—he never dreamed that Chen Taotao would actually dare, and that he would actually guess right! Meilidu was the most crucial, yet also the weakest, Achilles' heel in all his elaborate schemes!

The hall erupted in chaos!

"My God! Chen Taotao won the bet?!"

"That old fox Chen Wanxian! So all seven were empty? Meili was the most blatantly empty? He's incredibly audacious!"

"Serves him right! Someone should have taken care of him a long time ago!"

"From today onwards, who dares to underestimate Chen Taotao? The title of 'King of All-in' is well-deserved!"

Chen Wanxian collapsed to the ground, his eyes vacant, repeatedly muttering, "Impossible...impossible...how did he know..."

Soon, several uniformed bailiffs entered the hall, approached Chen Wanxian, and showed their identification: "Mr. Chen Wanxian, you are suspected of multiple crimes including financial fraud and illegal fundraising. You are now formally arrested. Please come with us to assist in the investigation."

After saying that, they lifted the limp Chen Wanxian up on either side and dragged him out of the trading hall.

Chen Taotao looked at the back of the person being taken away, who had aged ten years in an instant. Instead of the expected elation or excitement, his face showed a dull expression, as if he had completed something that had to be done but was not pleasant.

Da Shan, oblivious to his unease, excitedly pumped his fist: "We won! We won! That old fox has finally fallen!"

"Let's strike while the iron is hot and quickly apply for a new VIP room! Then we'll make a killing in the Hong Kong stock market!"

Chen Taotao forced a smile: "Yes, of course."

Da Shan excitedly went to complete the formalities.

Fang Ting noticed Chen Taotao's emotions carefully, walked to his side, and said softly, "The feeling of revenge... isn't as satisfying as you imagined, is it?"

Chen Taotao was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Yeah. I have some free time. It seems... I don't know what to do next."

Fang Ting suggested softly, "Perhaps... you could call Mr. Ye and have a chat? He's been through a lot, maybe he can give you some direction."

Chen Taotao's eyes lit up: "Yes! I'll call right now..."

"No!" Fang Ting quickly stopped him. "Don't hit him now! Mr. Ye has a habit of never getting up before noon. He'll get very angry if anyone disturbs his sleep."

Chen Taotao was taken aback, then understood. Such a long-standing habit was indeed difficult to change.

Fang Ting changed the subject: "President Chen, now that the team really revolves around you, have you thought about giving our fund a name?"

Chen Taotao thought about it carefully: "If we're going to be invincible... let's call it the 'Invincible Fund'."

Fang Ting stuck out her tongue: "That's a bit too menacing, isn't it? Won't it make us seem too aggressive?"

Chen Taotao nodded slightly: "The stock market is a battlefield, a zero-sum game, with no room for sentimentality. A strong name is good too. From today onwards, Yum! Fund is established. I want it to make a name for itself in Hong Kong."

Da Shan quickly finished the formalities and rushed back, beaming with joy: "It's all done! The VIP room is top-notch! Let's go, let's celebrate today! It's my treat, we won't leave until we're drunk!"

The three men smiled and prepared to leave. Just as they reached the entrance to the trading hall, the piercing sound of police sirens suddenly filled the air from the street outside. Several patrol cars roared past, their interiors seemingly crammed with people.

Da Shan peered through the glass and exclaimed, "Wow, so many people arrested? What big case is this?"

Chen Taotao smiled and said, "The fact that so many people have been mobilized shows that the public security is being maintained, which is a good thing."

Da Shan nodded, not thinking much of it.

Fang Ting shook her head inwardly. Was Hong Kong's security really that good? She had a vague premonition that the people in those police vans were probably connected to triads. Especially since it seemed several triads had "happy events" today.

Inside several speeding armored vehicles.

Greyhound and Big Fly squeezed among the prisoners, their hands cuffed, but they showed no fear on their faces, instead chatting idly.

Greyhound looked out the window at the street flashing by, his tone surprisingly envious: "Every time a new gang leader takes office, the officers 'invite' him here like this. I've always thought... it's pretty impressive."

Dafei rolled his eyes: "So what if you're cool! Getting arrested by the cops and locked up for 24 hours, is that something to be proud of?"

Greyhound said earnestly, "You don't understand. This is official 'certification'! It means that from today onwards, you're someone important, and the police are paying attention to you!"

Dafei thought about it and it seemed to make sense: "So... Ye Tian will also be 'invited' for tea later?"

Greyhound nodded with a smile: "Of course! It's the rule, and no one can be exempt. Let's just wait and see Ye Tian's expression when he's dragged away, and see if he's as calm as we are."

Ye Tian Villa.

At noon, Ye Tian woke up on time and leisurely washed up. When he went downstairs to the dining room, Luo Tianhong was already waiting in the living room with the Wang brothers, Wang Jianjun and Wang Jianguo, looking a little anxious.

Ye Tian had just picked up a piece of bread when Luo Tianhong rushed over: "Boss! Brother Kun has been calling several times! He wants us to hurry up and go to the 'Honest and Resolute' restaurant in Tsuen Wan! Many brothers from other Hung Hing branches are already here, just waiting for you!"

Ye Tian took a bite of bread and mumbled, "I don't believe it."

Luo Tianhong was taken aback: "Huh? Brother Kun said it himself..."
