65: Chapter 65 The Events of the Year (1)_1
The day after he returned home, Old Master Loo called Situ Xin into the study and gave him four elixir pills, claiming they belonged to him and his wife, and even shared the story about Master Situ Xin with Loo Jianxin.
Loo Jianxin was somewhat skeptical of his father’s words; although he knew his father wouldn’t speak about baseless matters, what his father described seemed too fantastical, something that wouldn’t exist in reality.
However, after he and his wife took the Marrow Cleansing Pill, he became utterly convinced of his father’s words.
Loo Jianxin had initially planned to return to the country to test the waters in the stock market, not intending to invest a significant sum.
But after hearing what Situ Xin said, he invested nearly all his funds into stocks.
And just like Situ Xin had predicted, he made a fortune.
This made Loo Jianxin even more confident in the abilities of Situ Xin’s master.
Indeed, the existence of this master made Situ Xin’s life much easier in recent years.
When she started reading and writing, her family was amazed and questioned her, “Baby, how can you write?” She would simply bring up her master.
“Baby’s master taught me.” This simple explanation was enough to enlighten them, and they stopped asking questions.
Over time, everyone grew accustomed to the sudden emergence of Situ Xin’s talents.
Who could question it when she had such an extraordinary master?
After selling off his stocks, Loo Jianxin couldn’t sit still as he watched the stock prices continue to soar with no sign of falling.
It was all money being lost.
“Baby, where is the fall that your master talked about?
There’s no sign of it yet,” Loo Jianxin lamented as he watched his money slip away.
“My master said that one shouldn’t get too greedy.

If you’ve made a decent profit, you should stop,” Situ Xin replied.
Hearing this, Loo Jianxin felt like spitting blood.
He thought about buying more stocks.
But after hearing what Situ Xin added, he calmed down.
“My master also said that things often swing to the opposite extreme.” Situ Xin added this quickly seeing how her uncle was itching to act, fearing that in a rash moment, he would buy more stocks.
In a little over a month, his money would truly be trapped.
After hearing Situ Xin’s words, Loo Jianxin didn’t purchase more stocks.
Yet he still kept an eye on their trajectory, watching as they rose day by day.
His regretful glances at Situ Xin were unmistakable.
“There goes the money…
just like that.”
But on May 26th, when Loo Jianxin came home, he looked at Situ Xin differently—not with regret, but with relief.
Situ Xin knew perfectly why her uncle’s perspective had shifted.
The rest of the family, unaware, pressed Loo Jianxin about his change in demeanour, to which he simply responded, “What goes up must come down.”
Situ Xin had a reason for advising her uncle to sell his stocks in advance.
First, if they were to sell right before the expected drop in May and they had a smaller amount, it might not draw attention.
However, the sum of their combined assets was not small—Situ Xin alone, in the guise of her master, had poured quite a fortune into the market over the years, not any less than Loo Jianxin.
If they were to sell such a large sum of money at a critical time, it might not raise eyebrows at the moment, but during a significant market drop, people would definitely take notice.
That could lead to unwelcome attention.
Secondly, it concerned Situ Xin’s own plans.
She wanted to start a business.
Her uncle and aunt had left their overseas properties to others to manage, coming back to start something in their home country.
Her uncle was returning to his roots, getting into the food industry—an explosive sector—and for this, Loo Jianxin had even imported advanced equipment from abroad.
Seeing her uncle busy, Situ Xin was also planning to create her own business.
Though quick money could be made from stocks, she knew that wasn’t sustainable.
As her aunt had just returned home and was still looking for something to do, a light bulb went off in Situ Xin’s head, thinking of partnering with her.
“Auntie,” said Situ Xin, holding the proposal she had prepared and approaching her aunt.
“Baby,” Situ Xin’s aunt, Lu Juan, exclaimed with delight, hugging Situ Xin to her lap and smothering her face with kisses.
“Aiya, Auntie, Baby has something to discuss with you,” Situ Xin dodged her aunt’s slobbery affection.
She was overwhelmed by her aunt’s enthusiasm, who was always eager with hugs and kisses.
If not for the serious matter at hand, Situ Xin would not have subjected herself to this ordeal.
“Oh?
What does Baby need from your auntie?” Lu Juan was surprised to hear that Situ Xin needed something from her, well aware that her niece usually avoided her at all costs.
“Auntie, I would like to invite you to be my business partner.
Let’s start a fashion company together,” Situ Xin explained her idea.
In her past life, there was a saying that the easiest money to earn was from children and women.
Now that her uncle had taken over the children’s part, she had to settle for making money from women.
And what do women love most?
Shopping and buying clothes.
Situ Xin had observed the fashion of this era, finding it outdated and monotonous.
Fortunately, she had many fresh and attractive designs in her mind.
The success of clothes sales depended on their style and, confident in her designs, Situ Xin believed that her clothes would be a hit.
“A fashion company partnership?” For a moment, Lu Juan wondered if she was hallucinating.
She knew her niece was a prodigy whose words and actions defied her age, but even so, Lu Juan never imagined such a young person capable of starting a company.
“Yes, Auntie, please don’t look so distrustful; it’s crushing my tender heart,” Situ Xin said, aware that her young age talking of starting a company might make it seem like a child’s play.
“Oh, Auntie was wrong not to trust you.
But, Baby, you should know that starting a company isn’t child’s play,” Lu Juan said seriously.
She knew she had to treat Situ Xin differently from an ordinary child.
