   Chapter 3 Mysterious Code: The Stock God's Gift The man in the mirror looked like a completely different person. His white hair was neatly trimmed, layered and sharp-edged, and even his beard was styled in an internationally fashionable way. Gone was the slightly sweaty, wrinkled shirt and the large, loose canvas pants; just looking at his face, he was clearly a seasoned, successful businessman, a handsome man about to enter the entertainment industry. Lin Qi stared blankly at his reflection, momentarily lost in thought, as if transported back to the past. "How about it, Brother Lin? Handsome, right? You look like a stock market god, a star-like stock market god!" Hongyan wasn't sure if she was excited about her own masterpiece or about the man before her. She looked him up and down, scrutinizing him closely, afraid that even a single hair might not be properly trimmed! "I really don't know what to say, thank you, Hongyan!" Lin Qi felt a pang of sadness. It was the first time she had been looked at so sincerely by a man like this. His eyes were like black holes, seemingly containing an unfathomable mystery and allure, inviting exploration. Her face flushed slightly, as if it were about to turn red! It was the kind of fantasies and longings a young girl has for love! "It's nothing, this hairstyle is something I just came up with myself, and I used you as a test subject. Luckily, it worked. You gave me this opportunity!" Hongyan quickly said, trying to cover it up! "There's a saying, 'One should not accept a reward without merit.' If you insist on not taking my money, then I will return the favor. Do you have paper and a pen?" Lin Qi said seriously. "Wait a moment, Brother Lin!" Hongyan turned and walked towards the drawer of the counter. Her back view was truly beautiful, graceful and charming, her black hair cascading like a waterfall, her voice sweet, her speech elegant and reserved. Youth is truly wonderful! For a moment, he suspected that she resembled Shangguan Lier, his ex-wife! The woman who decided to divorce him while he was still in prison. Yes, it wasn't her fault. He shouldn't have been a burden to her while in prison, and to their newborn child. He hadn't even left them any inheritance. But why did people say she married the enemy who framed her?
