Unexpectedly, Yu Xue, this good-for-nothing, has made some decent friends, which gives her a perfect opportunity to swindle all these good-for-nothings into joining her circle.

Song Shiwei silently rolled her eyes in her mind, [You want my principal, right? You want my principal to pay me interest? You're quite the clever little devil.]

Seeing that Song Shiwei unmoved, Xu Yan rolled her eyes, glanced silently at Yu Xue, and quickly grabbed Yu Xue's arm. "Yu Xue, I've come to give you good news! The insurance company we invested in last time is making money. They've earned hundreds of thousands in just one month!"

Yu Xue nodded, and as soon as she checked her phone, she saw a transaction notification on her bank card. Xu Yan quickly said, "Look, today's earnings have already arrived! I told you this investment was absolutely worthwhile. It returns cash to your bank card every day; it's really incredibly worthwhile."

Yu Xue glanced at Xu Yan without changing her expression, her face still showing considerable trust. "So much? Didn't you say the other day that insurance companies weren't making money?"

Yu Xue then remembered that Xu Yan said she would give cashback every day, but in reality, she would only get cashback for one day when she asked, and no cashback if she didn't ask. Then, when she asked again, she would get cashback for another day, and she would also take a large sum of money from her under the pretense of continuing to invest.

Looking back now, I realize how incredibly stupid I was. I couldn't even see through such an obvious scam. I was truly utterly naive.

Song Shiwei, propping herself up on her elbows, sat to the side, watching the drama unfold with a grin. [Of course they'd try to trick you into investing, they'd give you some incentive, right? Why would you continue investing if they didn't promise profits?]

Xu Yan's expression froze for a moment, then she gave an awkward laugh. "We definitely won't make money in the early stages, but we're making money now! Our boss said we can eat meat to our hearts' content from now on. Yu Xue, does your friend want to invest with me?"

Yu Xue glanced at Song Shiwei and the others, inwardly rolling her eyes. If Xu Yan knew that standing in front of her were the president and his wife of a famous brothel in Yanjing, she wondered if she would still be able to say such things.

This is also because Jiang Xun doesn't appear in the public eye very often. The few times he does appear, he only shows his profile. He didn't show his face much on the variety show yesterday, and Jiang Xun Xu Yan didn't recognize him as Jiang Xun, the president of [company name], thinking he was just a handsome young celebrity.

Yu Xue nodded, her face beaming with joy, and said, "It's great that you've made money! If you've made money, then give me all the money you've earned, along with the money I invested. I recently bought a house, and I still have tens of millions in mortgage debt. I want to pay back my money to the bank first, so I won't have to pay so much interest later. I need it urgently."

To be honest, Yu Xue can be quite clear-headed sometimes. I just can't understand why she got scammed so badly—she lost her house, her car, and all her money.

Song Shiwei's words startled Yu Xue. Was she going to experience what it felt like to have nothing beforehand?

She wouldn't have it; she was determined to get what was rightfully hers back today!

Upon hearing Yu Xue's words, Xu Yan Yan's smile froze instantly. "Yu Xue, you've only earned a few hundred thousand, how can you say you want to give up? We need to make money work for us, we need to turn ten million into twenty million, and twenty million into two hundred million."

"Auntie, are you a loan shark?" Song Shiwei chuckled. "Loan sharks like this are bound to get into trouble sooner or later. This is really unrealistic."

[You think I'm mentally challenged if I don't go crazy? Who makes money that fast? I really don't want to argue with you.]

Xu Yan was suddenly confronted by Song Shiwei, rendering his prepared explanation useless. Yu Xue also gave him a strange look.

She glared at Song Shiwei with a hint of malice. So, the friends Yu Xue brought back today are here to sabotage her, aren't they?

"Who gives you the right to interrupt us?" Xu Yan retorted angrily. "Yu Xue, I always said you're no good friend. You should break up with her. She's just jealous of how much money you make. Just you wait, she'll be the first one to ask you for money once you start earning."

[Fine, fine, I can't do it, but you can. You're the best, damn it. You're not going to say the company's having cash flow problems and can't come up with the money, are you?]

Song Shiwei finished speaking than Xu Yan's voice rang out.

"The company is facing cash flow problems right now, and we can't come up with the money for the time being." Xu Yan quickly grasped Yu Xue's hand. "But Yu Xue, I know a little insider tip. If you keep investing, we can make two million next week, and then we can get all the money out and you can pay off your mortgage."

[You'll probably run away next week, right?] Song Shiwei scoffed inwardly. [Silly woman, do you think everyone else is stupid?]

"What's your company called? I'd like to invest, is that possible?" Song Shiwei asked after thinking for a moment.

Yu Xue looked at Song Shiwei with a puzzled expression. Why did Song Shiwei suddenly want to invest? Could it be that she was provoked and insisted on investing to prove herself?

Yu Chen and Jiang Zhuxin glanced at Song Shiwei. Had these two girls gone mad? Knowing it was a scam, why was she still investing? Was she just handing over her money to fraudsters?

Upon hearing Song Shiwei's interest, Xu Yan became as enthusiastic as if she had seen her own father. She immediately let go of Yu Xue's hand and instead grasped Song Shiwei's hand. "Oh, Miss, I knew you had good taste! Our company is called Xinyang Insurance Company. Our products offer very high rebates, 25%! The more you invest, the more rebates we give you."

"Miss, how much are you planning to bet?" Xu Yan looked at Song Shiwei expectantly.

[How much should I invest? I'd invest in a damn company that's going to run away tonight, why would I invest in it?]

Song Shiwei had just glanced at the Gossip Compendium and discovered that this stupid company was actually going to run away tonight. They had the hard-earned money of a large portion of the poor people in the country in their hands!

They tricked people into buying financial products promising high returns, and now that the Ponzi scheme is almost over, they're preparing to abscond! How could she tolerate this?! These bastards are all trying to run away with every single one of them.
