On the night the Financial Street massacre began, Chu Yao watched the aloof man she had secretly loved for ten years, Cheng Shubai, liquidate his holdings at a loss for the sake of his dream girl. Her faith in him, built over a decade, collapsed in an instant.
Back in her apartment, crammed with fan merchandise, she opened her secret account as a fan-fiction shipper: her entire portfolio was invested in CP stocks, and the returns were ten times her salary.
“Do you know why your portfolio is always as green as if it’s campaigning to become eco-friendly?” she taunted Cheng Shubai. “It’s because you never spend money on the real stars.”
The next day, the “Yun-Yue CP” she had orchestrated took the internet by storm, sending the stock prices of affiliated companies soaring by 300% and setting the financial headlines ablaze.
When Cheng Shubai showed up downstairs with a diamond ring to stop her, she was busy directing tens of millions in funds to drive a pair of esports players’ stocks to their daily limit. “Wait, let me finish savoring this fresh new ship first...”
He tremblingly opened a notification on his phone: [Rising stock market goddess Miss Chu Yao rumored to be dating top-tier fund manager Cheng Shubai]
The person who had sent the notification was none other than the dream girl he treasured above all else.
Little did he know...
This was only the beginning of the war.
The dream girl turned out to be the shadowy founder of the CP stock platform, and three years ago she had used the same tactics to drive a major player out of the scene.
As fake scandals, short-selling by capital, and platform bans came one after another,
Chu Yao quietly rallied tens of millions of fans. “Sisters, let’s show the capital, ”
“Who really owns the emotional economy!”
