Chapter 216 - 139: Suspecting Chen Mo Likes Men
"Disney. Want to go?"
Chen Mo smiled faintly and named the place.
He had gone with Xia Shiqing last time and thought it was a great spot for a couple’s date.
"I do!"
Hearing this, Wei Luyao’s beautiful eyes instantly lit up, her pretty face filled with eager anticipation and delight.
She had seen lots of videos of Disney online but had never been.
Now that Chen Mo was taking her to Disney, she was thrilled and full of anticipation.
"Alright then."
Chen Mo smiled and started driving toward Disney.
"Can I play some music?"
Wei Luyao was so happy that she felt like listening to a song.
But she was also worried it might interfere with Chen Mo hearing the GPS navigation.
"Connect to the Bluetooth. You can use the car’s sound system."
While waiting at a red light, Chen Mo helped her connect to the car’s Bluetooth.
Then, Wei Luyao started playing a song.
"Hm? Isn’t this the song Qiluo sang yesterday?"
As he listened, Chen Mo found the song quite familiar and remembered it was the new song Qiluo had performed at yesterday’s concert.
"Yeah! Did you watch Qiluo’s concert yesterday, too? Her virtual avatar is so exquisitely made, and her songs are amazing!"
When Wei Luyao realized Chen Mo recognized Qiluo’s song, she lit up as if she’d found a kindred spirit and started chatting with him.
"After bubbling up overnight, TikTok is now full of clips from Qiluo’s concert, and they’re getting a crazy number of views and likes."
"Qiluo is also dominating the trending topics on Weibo."
"A lot of people who missed the livestream saw the clips and got hooked on Qiluo, so they all went looking for a recording of last night’s concert."
"Qiluo also launched her own Weibo and TikTok accounts and gained several million followers in just one night. And the number is still growing rapidly."
"Music platforms like QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music released her new song, and it shot up the ’new releases’ chart overnight. It’ll probably hit number one in a few days..."
Wei Luyao seemed to be a big fan of Qiluo, chattering away from the passenger seat as she described to Chen Mo just how unbelievably popular Qiluo had become.
Hearing her explanation, Chen Mo was also a little surprised.
He hadn’t expected Qiluo’s popularity to explode to this extent in just one night.
She was dominating the charts and trending on short-video platforms, social media, and music streaming services alike.
If this trend continued, Xinggui Film and Television’s stock price wouldn’t just rise.
It would skyrocket!
"Excellent."
Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction.
"Did you become a fan of Qiluo, too?"
Seeing Chen Mo’s reaction, Wei Luyao thought he had also been won over by Qiluo and shot him a look that said, ’You’ve got good taste’.
"No, no, I just bought stock in Qiluo’s parent company, Xinggui Film and Television."
"The more popular she gets, the happier I am."
Chen Mo shook his head and explained with a smile.
"Is this the difference between me and a rich person?"
"I only knew that Qiluo got popular, but you saw that her company’s stock would rise because of it."
After hearing this, Wei Luyao couldn’t help but look at Chen Mo with a hint of adoration.
’It’s true that you can’t make money beyond your own understanding.’
Even though she didn’t have money to buy stocks, she also lacked that awareness and way of thinking.
"I’m a finance major, and you’re a law major. It’s only natural we see things from different perspectives. Don’t overthink it."
While waiting at a red light, Chen Mo smiled and patted her on the head.
"So with Qiluo being so popular, Xinggui Film and Television’s stock is definitely going to rise, right?"
Wei Luyao obediently let Chen Mo give her an affectionate pat on the head, blinking her beautiful eyes as she asked curiously.
Even if she didn’t understand stocks, she knew that when something this good happened to a company, its stock price would surely go up.
"It’ll skyrocket."
"It can only go up by a maximum of 10% each day, but it’ll keep rising for many days in a row."
Chen Mo smiled faintly and gave her a brief explanation of the stock market’s rules.
"How much did you buy?"
Wei Luyao grew even more curious.
If it was going to skyrocket, didn’t that mean the more you bought, the more you earned?
"Forty-five hundred."
Chen Mo didn’t intentionally hide it from her. She had already seen his massive villa, so she knew he was rich.
"Is that all you bought?"
Wei Luyao shot him a surprised look.
Although she didn’t even have 4,500 yuan herself, she felt that for someone with Chen Mo’s wealth, wasn’t buying just 4,500 a bit too little?
Even if it skyrocketed, he wouldn’t make that much, would he?
A 10% increase would only be 450 yuan.
For Chen Mo, isn’t that just a drop in the bucket?
"Be a little bolder. Is it possible I left off a few zeros?"
Chen Mo couldn’t help but chuckle. 4,500 yuan would only be enough to buy a little over three lots.
That certainly wouldn’t be worth this much of his attention.
"Forty-five... million?!"
Hearing Chen Mo’s words, Wei Luyao’s pretty eyes went wide, and she subconsciously covered her mouth.
She looked at him in disbelief, her mind reeling from the immense shock and impact.
For a university student like her, she would have never dared to even imagine forty-five million.
To her, it was an astronomical sum.
But after Chen Mo personally confirmed it, all she could think was that ’poverty really does limit one’s imagination’.
Chen Mo bought forty-five million. If it went up by 10%, that would be 4.5 million!
The thought that Chen Mo could make 4.5 million in a single day left her completely dumbfounded.
"What’s wrong?"
Chen Mo saw her staring blankly in the passenger seat and asked with a laugh.
"I feel like... even if I become a partner at a top-tier law firm someday, I’ll never make enough to be your sugar mama..."
She felt that her dream of having Chen Mo live off her was probably hopeless in this lifetime.
"It’s not about who has more money. As long as you’re covering my expenses, you’d still be supporting me."
Chen Mo chuckled, shook his head, and said with a meaningful tone.
’That’s true.’ Hearing that, Wei Luyao’s hope was instantly rekindled.
Seeing the smile return to her pretty face, Chen Mo found it rather amusing.
’Campus Beauty Wei really does want me to live off her, doesn’t she?’
The two of them chatted and laughed in the car, and the time flew by quickly.
