Jin Huaiqian leaned closer as requested.
Xie Sui praised, “So obedient.”
He hooked Jin Huaiqian’s chin, pulling him right in front of his face.
His tongue drove straight in, pushing the candy into Jin Huaiqian’s mouth. Having achieved his goal, he did not linger for a moment and retreated immediately.
Xie Sui licked his lips, flashing a triumphant smile. “Your reward. Does it taste good?”
The grape flavor burst inside Jin Huaiqian’s mouth. Feeling the sweet, sticky taste spreading across the tip of his tongue, he said, “This does not seem to taste like raspberry.”
Xie Sui denied it, completely turning black into white. “How is it not? This is clearly a grape-flavored raspberry.”
He deliberately dragged out his tone. One of his hands rested on Jin Huaiqian’s shoulder, sliding down slowly along the crisp fabric of the well-tailored suit.
Jin Huaiqian looked deeply at him, staying perfectly still.
Then, with a click, Xie Sui pressed down on the doorknob, a soul-stirring smile gracing his face. “See you in a bit.”
After saying this, he turned around and walked out of the room.
The brightness outside made Xie Sui feel uncomfortable. He squinted slightly, and once his eyes adjusted, he looked at the business card in his hand.
The content of the card was simple, featuring only a name and a phone number, without even a company letterhead.
Considering Jin Huaiqian’s hidden identity, this was quite understandable.
Xie Sui opened WeChat and searched for the number.
The interface popped up with a picture of a landscape and a simple name: Q.
Xie Sui instantly felt a bit of disdain, but on second thought, remembering the handsome face of Jin Huaiqian on the other end, he felt at peace with it again.
Tap, went his finger on the screen as he sent a friend request.
Having successfully added him on WeChat, Xie Sui was in an excellent mood. He was so happy that he even praised the ornaments on the wall as he walked past them.
The seminar began shortly after. Numerous industry elites took turns on the stage to share their experiences and insights. Xie Sui sat quietly in the audience, lowering his head from time to time to jot down some notes.
This posture caught the attention of the person next to him.
The man leaned over slightly and spoke hesitantly, “Um, hello.”
Hearing the voice, Xie Sui turned his head toward the person and returned a polite smile. “Hello.”
He subtly sized the man up. The skin was very tender, the eyes lacked the exhaustion of someone who had worked for years, and the cheeks carried a faint blush, likely out of shyness. The bridge of the nose was elegant, the shape of the lips was neat, and the proportions of the entire face were good. He looked like a university student who had just graduated, carrying a bit of the innocence of someone fresh out of campus. A seminar badge hung on his chest, with the name Qiu Min printed on it.
Qiu Min spoke up with some embarrassment, “May I ask what they meant just now by utilizing cross-market arbitrage?”
Although Xie Sui did not know why he gave Qiu Min the illusion that he would know the answer, he still replied, “To put it simply, it means taking advantage of the price differences of the same asset in different markets. By simultaneously conducting reverse transactions in different markets, one can secure risk-free profits.”
Qiu Min was still a little confused. “But how can anyone guarantee it is risk-free? And how can anyone guarantee that a profit will definitely be made?”
Xie Sui smiled. “Generally speaking, the price difference of the same asset in different markets is caused by factors such as market information asymmetry, transaction costs, and exchange rate fluctuations. However, these differences will not exist for a long time, as the market will make the prices tend toward consistency through its own adjustment mechanisms. Furthermore, when we carry out arbitrage operations, we buy and sell at the same time, locking in the price difference. As long as the price returns to normal, we can make a profit.”
After saying this, Xie Sui shrugged. “Of course, I cannot guarantee that it is absolutely risk-free. But since those people say it is risk-free, then it is risk-free.”
Qiu Min realized the answer all at once, his face full of admiration. “You must be a very amazing big shot, right? Could I borrow your notes to take a look?”
Without drawing attention to his actions, Xie Sui closed the notebook, which was completely filled with the name Jin Huaiqian and featured abstract drawings of Jin Huaiqian. With an apologetic face, he said, “I am so sorry, but this involves some internal secrets, so it is not convenient to disclose.”
Qiu Min was a bit disappointed, but he still expressed understanding. “It is fine. Thank you for helping to answer my question just now.”
Xie Sui smiled and said, “You are welcome.”
Qiu Min continued to listen to the lecture attentively, while Xie Sui was somewhat distracted. With the interlude just now, he could no longer keep up the act.
He had heard from others that the investors of this seminar would also come to participate. As one of the investors holding absolute speaking power, the Jin Group would naturally not be absent.
He had only come to try his luck, never expecting that he would actually run into him.
He just did not know whether he would take the stage.
He had seen several CEOs of venture capital enterprises share their insights, and Yiyuan Capital did not necessarily look inferior when compared against these seniors.
Thinking of this, Xie Sui suddenly felt it was a pity.
Jin Huaiqian’s identity today was the crown prince of the Jin Group, not the boss of Yiyuan.
Compared to long-winded speeches, Jin Huaiqian’s style of being concise and striking directly at the core points made people want to listen much more.
Xie Sui listened until he felt somewhat drowsy. Just as he was thinking of simply slipping away quietly, he suddenly heard a soft exclamation of surprise from beside him.
Qiu Min looked at the stage, his eyes filled with amazement.
Xie Sui looked toward the stage, and his gaze instantly fixed upon it.
Jin Huaiqian stood in the center. Because of his height, he needed to lean forward slightly to be close to the microphone.
The aura of a mature businessman rushed over. Without excessive pleasantries, and even without much expression, his calm gaze simply swept across the audience below the stage.
He had come on behalf of the Jin Group to discuss a cooperation proposal, and he spoke eloquently. With no nonsense, he cut straight into the most core part.
An unprecedented, strong impulse mixing appreciation with pure physical attraction gripped Xie Sui without warning.
He wanted to mess up his meticulously styled hair. He wanted to see that face, which was forever calm and self-contained in public, display expressions of indulgence, loss of control, and even pain.
The seminar finally ended amidst warm applause. The crowd began to move, and many people surged toward the front of the stage, attempting to establish a connection with Jin Huaiqian. Jin Huaiqian was surrounded in the middle, handling it appropriately, but Xie Sui could see a barely perceptible trace of aloofness between his brows.
He did not go forward immediately. Instead, he waited until the crowd dispersed slightly before walking over unhurriedly.
“The speech was wonderful.”
Jin Huaiqian’s gaze swept across the notebook in his hand. “It seems Mr. Xie was taking notes very seriously.”
Xie Sui said happily, “That is only natural. It is not easy to get a chance to attend such a high-end seminar.”
Jin Huaiqian smiled without speaking.
“I wonder if President Jin has any arrangements for the evening?” Xie Sui took the initiative to extend an invitation. “I know a nice Jiangsu-Zhejiang restaurant nearby, and the environment is quiet. I heard a lot of solid information today, so I wanted to ask for some advice in private. I wonder if I have this honor?”
Jin Huaiqian looked at him quietly for two seconds. His gaze was as deep as a pool, as if it could pierce through his skin and reach straight to the burning intention deep within.
“Alright.”
“Also, I added you on WeChat today. Did you see it?”
Jin Huaiqian pulled out his phone. “I am sorry, I was busy with company matters just now and did not have time to look.”
“This ‘S’, is it you?”
Xie Sui: “I just changed it. Does it sound good?”
Jin Huaiqian clicked accept, then promptly put the phone back into his pocket.
“It seems the person in front of me is a copycat.”
Xie Sui smiled frankly. “This is called putting knowledge into practice.”
The two stood together chatting idly. In the eyes of others, they were conversing very happily, as if they had reached some sort of consensus.
This scene made certain people extremely green with envy.
Jin Huaiqian left first because of some business. Just as his figure disappeared, someone could no longer contain themselves and walked straight toward Xie Sui.
