Chapter 1298: Chapter 565: Two Families

“What are you blabbering about! Haven’t we always been buying upwards?”

Upon hearing her husband’s words, Liu Jing could hardly believe her ears. This was a business deal worth billions, even if her husband changed his strategy, shouldn’t he have at least let her know beforehand?

But her husband was adamant, he said, “The situation is clearly off; I definitely have to hedge! Who could have foreseen this?”

Liu Jing’s face turned pale instantly. She always thought she was on top of the game. Who would have imagined that in a few days, not only did she not make any money, but instead lost over a billion?

Liu Jing suddenly had a very ominous feeling. She asked her husband if the market was rising so rapidly because the opposition was buying upwards.

Jiang’s father snorted coldly and said, “Isn’t it obvious? They’ve always been on the opposite side of us.”

“Jiang Liming! How can you be so righteous about this? This is our life’s work, tens of billions in assets, just gone like that? What exactly are you thinking?”

Liu Jing was already quite agitated, and her husband’s indifferent attitude made it unbearable for any woman.

Yet Jiang Liming appeared completely justified.

He said, “Why should I be angry? This loss of over a billion wasn’t caused by me; you’re the one who brought all this upon us. I’ve long advised you to keep a low profile, but you just wouldn’t listen?”

“Do you know who the opposition is? He’s a guy who conquered Wall Street before turning twenty, known as the Oriental Black Knight. With your dumb head, do you really think you can beat him at his capital game?”

“How about now? An entire fortune of billions, all gone. Today’s mess is entirely your doing!”

Jiang Liming started blaming Liu Jing, while Liu Jing kept staring at the computer screen, realizing that their family’s transaction was still climbing steeply. With every upward point, Liu Jing lost tens of millions. She started panicking; this was all her life’s work, all intended as Jiang Xinyi’s dowry.

Liu Jing had no time to quarrel with Jiang Liming. She only said, “What should we do now? You must think of a solution, right? We’ve mortgaged all our assets; if this continues, we’ll have nothing left, not even a place to live!”

Jiang Liming sneered and said, “That’s your problem, not mine.”

“Liu Jing, I think I’ve done nothing wrong by you. Let’s get a divorce. I’ll take responsibility for my share of the debt. That’s it.”

“Jiang…”

Before Liu Jing could speak, Jiang Liming hung up the phone.

At this moment, Liu Jing felt as though every last drop of strength had been drained from her body. Her entire fortune of billions turned to nothing within days, and decades of marriage led to her husband uttering such heartless words, blaming her entirely.

Jiang Xinyi heard the commotion and came out, only to find her mother collapsed on the floor. She was startled and quickly helped her up, asking, “Mom, what’s wrong?”

Liu Jing looked up at Jiang Xinyi weakly and said, “We’re… done for…”

Yesterday, Jiang Xinyi, like her mother, believed their family would safely navigate this crisis, even worried for Zhou Yuwen. It wasn’t until now that she realized the worries should have been for her own family.

Jiang Xinyi’s father, Jiang Liming, had a woman outside, which was no secret. But this time, he directly wanted to divorce her mother, which surprised Jiang Xinyi.

Previously, he was afraid of splitting the assets with her mother, but now they had no assets to divide.

If the futures market continued to fall like this, they would lose their entire family fortune.

Urgently, the only hope to salvage Jiang family’s losses was Zhou Yuwen.

As long as Zhou Yuwen stopped going against Jiang family, the futures market’s normal fluctuations, though unlikely to make much money back, would at least save some assets for Jiang family.

“That’s right! As long as Zhou Yuwen isn’t against us!”

After hearing her daughter’s words, the previously distraught Liu Jing suddenly had an epiphany. As long as Zhou Yuwen withdrew his funds from the futures market, at least forty billion losses could still be saved.

If that happened, maybe her husband wouldn’t divorce her.

Jiang family might still be saved!

Realizing the stakes involved, Jiang Xinyi dared not delay. She said, “I’m going to Capital city right now, I’ll personally go find Zhou Yuwen!”

If it were a few days earlier, perhaps it could still be resolved over the phone.

But now, it couldn’t be settled over the phone. The two families had long been fiercely entrenched in the futures market. Two days ago, when Jiang family was winning, they didn’t show mercy.

And now, with Zhou Yuwen in the advantage, Jiang Xinyi had to go plead for mercy.

It’s clearly impossible, knowing that Zhou Yuwen had also invested real money.

“It’s not Yuwen, it’s all because of that girl named Su Qing. I’m sure Yuwen can understand us!”

At this time, Liu Jing’s eyes showed a hint of clarity.

However, hearing her mother’s words, Jiang Xinyi felt helpless. Now she realizes to call Yuwen?

“I’ll go with you, Xinyi!”

At this moment, Liu Jing couldn’t sit still. Whether this large family disperses or stays depends on Zhou Yuwen, so Liu Jing dared not delay.

Despite Jiang Xinyi constantly urging Liu Jing not to panic, saying she will handle it.

However, Liu Jing insisted on going with Jiang Xinyi.
