Chapter 345: Chapter 345: The Poor Suddenly Rich
In the following days, Jiaren Corporation enjoyed a period of peace with no interference from those rogues or troubles from Ding Lijuan.
During this calm, Han Jingting could finally focus on her work, preparing for the launch of their new product, White Jade Frost.
As for Ding Lijuan and her group, just as Chen Xuan had anticipated, upon receiving twenty million, they had no appreciation for it, choosing to squander it immediately!
Purchasing luxury goods, jewelry, fine dining, and traveling abroad.
All of these once-unimaginable luxuries, given their previous economic status, had now come true.
To them, this twenty million was as if they had won the lottery jackpot, a windfall that caused them no heartache to spend.
Especially for the couple, Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen.
Just a few days ago, they were hovering on the breadline, beggars begging for survival every day.
Who would have thought that a few days later, they would transform into wealthy millionaires!
Indeed, it was this huge disparity in their financial status that gave Ding Lijuan and Han Bowwen the feeling of impoverished people suddenly becoming rich, spending wildly without restraint, in a kind of retaliatory consumption!
The first thing Ding Lijuan did every day upon waking up was to shop at various malls.
As for Han Bowwen, he was almost constantly gambling wildly in the underground casinos, day and night.
And then there was Ding Liang, who had recently bought a Ferrari F8 only to have it taken away by Meng Jinzhou to settle a debt, which had been gnawing at him.
So, after receiving five million from Ding Lijuan, Ding Liang immediately upgraded to an Aston Martin DBS.
This car’s price exceeded four million, even more expensive than the previous Ferrari!
Ding Liang has always been a calculating young man. He didn’t buy such an expensive car just because he liked it; he merely wanted to tie up the money in the car firstly.
Only by doing so, when his money ran out, could he go and ask Ding Lijuan for more.
And it was exactly as such; after buying the car, Ding Liang would come up with various reasons to ask Ding Lijuan for money every other day, and Ding Lijuan always complied.
In just a few days, Ding Liang managed to squeeze another two or three million from Ding Lijuan.
By the end, even Ding Lijuan herself noticed that Ding Liang had already received seven to eight hundred million, becoming the one who got the most money among their family!
And that massive sum of twenty million, in just a few short days, was almost gone, with less than one million left!
Just as Chen Xuan had said before, giving them so much money at once was not a good thing.
And his words came true, for before they had spent it all, disaster struck at last.
That night, Ding Liang joined a few friends and made his way to Jiulong Mountain.
Apart from being a famed Feng Shui site in Huai City, Jiulong Mountain was also a notorious spot for illegal street racing in the region.
Every night, countless young men and women gathered here for racing competitions.
But these days, racing wasn’t just for fun—it had evolved into a form of betting.
With every race, bets opened, attracting numerous participants.
Now the scale of the gambling circling the Jiulong Mountain racing events had grown massive, with daily turnovers reaching over a hundred million!
An event this grand was naturally not for ordinary people to take part in casually.
It was only because Ding Liang had money and a sports car that he became gradually acquainted with some so-called rich second-generation kids.
Today was the first time he had been brought here by friends, wanting to see a bit of the world.
As soon as he arrived at the scene, Ding Liang was immediately astonished by the spectacle before him.
Atop Jiulong Mountain, tens of thousands of people had gathered, parking various luxury sports cars to the max.
Ding Liang had thought his four-million Aston Martin was pretty impressive, but compared to these supercars, it was lackluster at best.
The cars that others had, those were the real supercars, often starting at tens of millions each.
Among these vehicles, Ding Liang’s Aston Martin became the most inferior in class, incomparable to those supercars in every aspect.
In Ding Liang’s heart, there was both excitement and introspection.
The excitement lay in witnessing so many supercars, seeing so many rich people, the second generation wealthy.
The reflection came from the realization that, after a long period of striving, he finally managed to mingle with these rich heirs.
This was the true upper class society, this was the life of the wealthy he had always dreamt of!
"How does it feel, Ding Liang, are your eyes opened?"
The young man beside him with dyed blonde hair, dressed very trendily, asked with pride.
This young man was named Fang Zhe, a newly-made friend of Ding Liang from the circle of fair-weather friends.
Fang Zhe’s family was quite well off, with both parents in business and assets worth over a hundred million; he often came to Jiulong Mountain for car races, and today, upon Ding Liang’s request, he came to broaden Ding Liang’s horizons.
"My eyes are definitely opened! Truly opened!"
Ding Liang was so excited that his eyes sparkled.
Seeing Ding Liang’s unsophisticated excitement, Fang Zhe snickered inwardly; indeed, he was a nouveau riche from the countryside, truly lacking in sophistication.
To be honest, had it not been for seeing that the other party was generous, and claiming that his sister was the chairperson of a listed company, Fang Zhe really couldn’t be bothered to mix with this country bumpkin—it was somewhat beneath him.
Afterward, Ding Liang let Fang Zhe lead him around the scene, introducing him to some friends.
In fact, Ding Liang’s insistence on Fang Zhe bringing him here wasn’t out of a genuine love for car racing; his primary goal was to enter the so-called upper echelons through Fang Zhe.
Fang Zhe did introduce Ding Liang to quite a few people, albeit those Fang Zhe knew were limited to his own level.
Of course, in Ding Liang’s eyes, these people already signified the upper class society.
Just then, Ding Liang’s gaze swept through the crowd and suddenly landed on a stunning figure.
It was a young girl, in her early twenties.
Not only was she beautiful, but her figure was sensational, especially showcased by her shorts and crop-top outfit that left little to the imagination.
The sharp-eyed Ding Liang noticed the watch on the girl’s wrist—it was a Patek Philippe limited edition, worth at least five million!
Clearly, this girl in front of him was a real white, rich, and beautiful lady!
At the sight of the girl, Ding Liang’s eyes lit up.
It wasn’t just due to her extraordinary looks, but also because of her wealth!
In Ding Liang’s heart, there was always an ultimate desire, and that was to latch onto a rich heiress!
Coming from an average family, Ding Liang was not like others who are down-to-earth; he always sought shortcuts to wealth without the hard work.
And in this world, was there any shortcut closer than clinging onto a rich girl and inheriting her family’s wealth?
Ding Liang watched the watch-wearing girl, his eyes narrowing slightly and a smug smile forming on his lips.
It seemed his trip today wasn’t in vain; he had finally found his target!
