Chapter 16: Chen Haoyuan's Grand Vision!
“Alright!” Lizi immediately followed Chen Hao’s instructions and called Xiangsheng Securities to check the funds in their account.
Soon, she found out the results.
At that moment, her face was full of nothing but shock.
“How much did we earn this afternoon?” Chen Hao asked from the side.
Actually, he had a rough idea himself.
Thanks to his exceptionally sharp memory now, he remembered very clearly how much profit each trade brought.
“Guess!” Lizi teased, deliberately building suspense.
“I’d say about 890,000, right?” Chen Hao replied without hesitation.
“No way!” Lizi exclaimed.
“You actually guessed it that accurately!”
“We really made 890,000 this afternoon!”
She was genuinely surprised.
She hadn’t expected Chen Hao to be so precise.
“That’s nothing!” Chen Hao chuckled.
“I remember every trade we made today afternoon and exactly how much each made.”
“Chen Hao! Your memory is incredible! You can recall all of this?”
“I don’t even remember which stocks we bought this afternoon!” Lizi admired him deeply.
She hadn’t realized his memory was so powerful!
“Hehe! Today’s haul was quite good!”
“Let’s go back and have a big feast to celebrate!” Chen Hao smiled.
“Yeah!” Lizi nodded firmly.
Then, together they left the stock exchange and hailed a taxi on the street.
Once inside, Chen Hao closed his eyes to rest.
By the time the taxi reached their destination, Chen Hao felt much refreshed.
After getting out, Chen Hao was about to head to the ‘Happy Family Tea Restaurant’ where they had lunch earlier.
But Lizi spoke up: “We won’t eat out today. Let’s cook at home!”
“Cook at home?” Chen Hao was slightly surprised.
“Eating out all the time isn’t healthy.”
“Home-cooked meals are better for us.”
“Today, you’ll get to taste my cooking!” Lizi smiled.
“You can cook?” Chen Hao asked.
“I’ve taken care of myself since I was very young,” Lizi said, a hint of sadness flickering in her eyes.
At that moment, Chen Hao recalled Lizi’s family background.
Her parents divorced when she was little.
Though custody was granted to her father, he didn’t take her in but left her with her grandparents.
So her claim about being self-reliant from a young age was certainly true.
“Wait here for me.”
“I’ll go to the nearby market to buy groceries,” Lizi said.
“I’ll come with you and help carry the bags!” Chen Hao offered.
“Alright!” Lizi nodded.
They went to the nearby market together.
In no time, they bought plenty of ingredients and returned to Chen Hao’s temporary residence.
It must be said that Hong Kong was truly advanced at this time.
Air conditioning was widespread, and refrigerators were common household appliances.
Lizi put the extra ingredients into the fridge.
“You go watch some TV in the living room.”
“I’ll cook.”
“Supper will be ready soon!”
Lizi busied herself deftly in the kitchen like a perfect homemaker.
Chen Hao felt a warm sense of home.
“Actually, I can cook too.”
“Why don’t we cook together? That way, you won’t be so tired,” Chen Hao said.
In his previous life, he had done many jobs, including being a chef, so his cooking skills were decent.
“No need!”
“You’re too tired today.”
“Go rest properly in the living room,” Lizi insisted, worried about his health and refusing his help.
“All right then,” Chen Hao relented.
He went to the living room and turned on the TV.
Just then, the station was broadcasting the 1983 version of “The Legend of the Condor Heroes.”
He watched with great interest.
As he watched, an idea sparked in his mind.
In his previous life, whenever he was bored, he loved watching TV dramas and movies.
He had rewatched many classics multiple times.
Though he couldn’t recite every detail perfectly, he could recall the plot very clearly.
Now, with his enhanced memory after reincarnation, he could remember all those stories perfectly.
So, he could reproduce the plots of classic dramas and movies from his past life.
If so, he could become a screenwriter and find directors to produce these dramas and movies ahead of others.
Not only TV and films, he could also sing many classic songs from Hong Kong Island.
He could collaborate with professional musicians to write the scores.
That way, he could become a composer and lyricist who releases many classic songs first.
The entertainment industry in 1990s Hong Kong was about to reach its peak.
He could seize this golden opportunity to enter the entertainment world and make a fortune!
However, for now, he would put the entertainment career on hold.
The priority was to make money in the stock market.
Once he earned enough, he could venture into entertainment, industry, real estate...
“Dinner’s ready!” Lizi’s voice came from the kitchen as Chen Hao was daydreaming about his future career.
Lizi carefully carried a large bowl into the living room.
Chen Hao stood up quickly and took the bowl from her hands.
Inside was wonton noodle soup.
“You said you like wonton noodles, so I made some for you today,” Lizi smiled.
“I hope it suits your taste.”
“And yours?” Chen Hao asked.
“Mine’s in the kitchen. I’ll bring it over now!” Lizi said, turning toward the kitchen.
“I’ll get it!” Chen Hao hurried after her, bringing the other bowl to the table.
Then, they sat down together.
“Try my cooking!” Lizi urged.
“Okay,” Chen Hao nodded and took a bite.
“How is it?” Lizi looked at him expectantly.
“Very tasty!”
“Didn’t expect your cooking to be so good,” Chen Hao gave her a thumbs-up.
Lizi beamed with joy at his praise, her heart filled with sweetness...
