Heroes don't ask about origins, and rogues don't ask about age.
They seemed unwilling to pursue responsibility when they saw Zhou Qiaoqiao.
Some particularly thick-skinned relatives even dared to ask.
"Qiaoqiao, which futures are you eyeing recently?"
"Your Sixth Uncle owes a pile of debt from stock trading and needs money to earn some back."
"But don't worry, I'll sign a confidentiality agreement right in front of you!"
Zhou Rongpan said with a smile.
Seeing this, a nephew said displeasedly.
"Uncle Pan, that's not fair!"
"You need money, but don't we all?"
"Sister Qiaoqiao, I'll sign a confidentiality agreement too, just tell me as well."
Zhou Rongpan's eyes widened like brass bells,
As he stretched his reddening neck.
"You little brat, go ask your dad for money if you need it."
"This is adult business, kids shouldn't meddle!"
Zhou Rongpan looked like he was about to eat someone.
He was afraid Zhou Qiaoqiao wouldn't agree because there were too many people.
Nobody minds having extra money in their wallet.
Soon enough, everyone was talking over each other.
Because of the matter of dollars.
They started arguing.
Xu Mo's eyelid twitched.
[Are the Zhou family members not right in the head?]
[Fighting over a losing business?]
[You guys are really something else]
"Ding, congratulations host, personal charm +1"
Bang bang bang-------
Old Master Zhou's cane struck the floor heavily.
Making a dull thudding sound!
"We have a guest! Where are your manners?"
Only then did they notice Xu Mo was still present.
The group immediately became more restrained.
Their tone and attitude became super friendly.
One aunt even brought over a stool for Xu Mo to sit on.
These relatives who were clamoring about which futures to buy.
Were the same ones who had earlier demanded explanations from Zhou Qiaoqiao.
The family money was indeed used for business.
But after dividing the returns,
What actually ended up in their pockets was minimal.
And this money wasn't easy to manipulate.
So they wanted to invest their own money in futures.
To earn more dollars.
After all, earning dollars wasn't shameful.
Just asking family members, nothing to hide.
"I did invest in several futures, and it wouldn't hurt to tell you about one of them."
Zhou Qiaoqiao suddenly changed her attitude and said.
Everyone: "......."
They looked at Zhou Qiaoqiao in disbelief.
Trade secrets!
Trade secrets, understand?
Many faces turned red.
Zhou Qiaoqiao's compromise for the greater good stood in stark contrast to their previous aggressive and selfish behavior.
Without comparison, there would be no harm!
Xu Mo looked at the female devil in surprise.
Sensing Xu Mo's gaze.
Zhou Qiaoqiao's lips curved into an enchanting smile.
"Hiss...."
Xu Mo drew in a cold breath.
He felt there was something creepy about the female devil's smile.
Beautiful, yes.
But something felt off, like she was setting up a trap.
"Qiaoqiao, Sixth Uncle was just joking, don't take it to heart."
Zhou Rongpan's eyes blazed, clearly not as casual as his words suggested.
Everyone was chattering.
Their flattering words were as sweet as could be.
The gist was.
Qiaoqiao's online futures were all virtual, and she couldn't handle it alone.
Since her capabilities were limited and she couldn't swallow all the profits,
Why not share with family members?
Keep the wealth within the family.
Let everyone in the Zhou family benefit.
Zhou Rongkang didn't leave in anger.
In fact, he was quite interested in knowing which futures Zhou Qiaoqiao had invested in!
Who would turn down dollars?
"There's only a high probability of profit, I can't guarantee 100%, uncles and aunts should think it through before telling me."
Zhou Qiaoqiao said, feigning helplessness.
These people became anxious.
"It's fine, high probability is good enough, Uncle Pan won't blame you if we don't make money."
Zhou Rongpan said with a smile, though burning with anxiety inside.
Others felt the same.
In the end, Zhou Qiaoqiao still shook her head, very concerned.
Even though they were family.
They had prior incidents.
Though Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't mention it.
They knew what they had done.
Finally, at Zhou Rongpan's suggestion.
They called the Zhou family's legal team.
Soon, airtight confidentiality agreements were printed out.
These relatives rushed to sign the agreements.
Even if they didn't make money later.
They wouldn't dare make trouble about this matter again.
Everything was written in black and white.
Xu Mo and his family were right there as concerned parties.
They were essentially touching the Xu family's interests.
But look!
They hadn't said a word.
How magnanimous!
Another implication was that they wanted to help everyone make money together?
The thick-skinned Zhou Rongkang also signed the agreement.
Since Zhou Qiaoqiao didn't object, others couldn't say anything either.
Most people stayed.
Only a few who hadn't signed the confidentiality agreements left.
During this time, Zhou Rongguang felt sympathetic.
He advised his daughter to forget about the confidentiality agreements.
They were all family after all.
But Zhou Qiaoqiao wouldn't agree this time!
She had seen through human nature.
"Alright, uncles and aunts, I'll only tell you about one of the futures, whether to buy or not is entirely up to you," Zhou Qiaoqiao said while organizing the twenty-plus agreements in her hands.
These people were all anxious.
The Xu family had invested.
Wouldn't they be fools not to invest?
Besides, since they had stayed.
This future, if not 100%, was 90% certain to be purchased.
Under everyone's urging.
Zhou Qiaoqiao finally said.
"That future you're all familiar with, it's crude oil."
About oil prices rising.
All the big families had received wind of it.
But they were all hesitating.
Waiting to see if others would test the waters first.
Preferring to wait a while.
Otherwise, rushing in and losing everything would be tragic, wouldn't it?
But now with Zhou Qiaoqiao's words.
It undoubtedly strengthened their resolve to invest in oil futures!
Hearing these words.
Even a fool would know there was profit to be made.
Huge returns on investment.
They'd have to be kicked in the head by a donkey to pass up such a good opportunity.
"Mom, Dad, I need to head back to the company."
Zhou Qiaoqiao said with a smile.
Zhou Rongguang and Zhou's Mother looked awkwardly at Xu Mo.
Feeling like their Zhou family owed the Xu family another huge favor.
Wanting to speak but not knowing how.
Xu Mo saw the elderly couple's concerns.
"This amount of money means nothing to my Xu family."
Only then did Zhou Rongguang and Zhou's Mother relax.
After some more casual chat.
During this time, Xu Mo's appearance differed from his calm exterior.
He was awkwardly searching the ground (╰_╯)#
These Zhou family members, each showing joy on their faces.
Were absolutely elated!
Some even forgot about propriety and took out their phones.
Telling their secretaries to immediately quietly purchase oil futures.
Oh my!
A bunch of fools.
Bonds, bonds, bonds are what make money!
Important things must be said thrice.
This isn't something to mess with, the female devil is so clever---(Well done)
Oh well.
Fortunately, the female devil was indeed smart.
She had the confidentiality agreements in hand.
They stated everything was voluntary.
Even if it later caused economic or other losses.
They would be responsible themselves.
Having nothing to do with Zhou Qiaoqiao
Started a new book on another account, titled----

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
