Chapter 1084: 754 Boom!

Jiang Chen was woken up the next day by the noise outside.

The Xue Family’s house was just a common residential building, and naturally, there was no particular attention paid to soundproofing during the renovation. Judging by the sounds, relatives must have arrived.

Jiang Chen faintly heard the voice of Li Shuru’s aunt, Zou Luoxia.

He was not flustered, simply nudging Li Shuru, who was sleeping soundly beside him.

At home, one’s sleep always seems better, and instinctively, Li Shuru brushed away his hand.

"Your aunt and the others are here."

Jiang Chen could only whisper a reminder.

Only then did Li Shuru open her eyes and, after a brief moment, suddenly sat up.

It was indeed quite lively outside; it seemed that quite a number of people had come.

Jiang Chen nonchalantly got dressed.

"I’ll go out first."

Immediately after, like it was nothing, he naturally put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom as though he was a member of the family.

"Little Jiang."

There were indeed a lot of people in the living room; it seemed as though the Xue Family’s relatives had all come over after some consultation.

Seeing Jiang Chen coming out of the room, these older family members showed no surprise or astonishment. Aunt Zou Luoxia, in particular, greeted Jiang Chen with her friendly and kind smile.

It was Jiang Chen’s first visit, and initially, she didn’t think much of her niece’s boyfriend. However, a series of events afterward completely changed her prejudice based on appearances.

"Auntie..."

Jiang Chen was quite polite, greeting the Xue Family’s elders in turn.

"Brother Jiang Chen, is she still asleep?"

Not only the elders but Xue Yali was there as well, together with her Wall Street talent boyfriend, Liu Hongzhi.

The two men of the same generation nodded and smiled at each other.

"She’s awake now."

Jiang Chen was easygoing, without the slightest embarrassment, as if he truly belonged to the family.

Logically, sharing a bed on only the second visit was considered inappropriate, but the Xue Family’s elders seemed not to find anything strange about it, showing remarkable tolerance as Xue Mingqin told Jiang Chen to go wash up first.

It didn’t take long after Jiang Chen entered the bathroom for the sound of Li Shuru greeting her family to be heard, and then she too came in.

After all, the house only had one bathroom.

"Isn’t it a bit early to pay a New Year’s visit?"

Jiang Chen commented while brushing his teeth.

Xue Mingqin saw to it that every detail was taken care of for her soon-to-be son-in-law, having prepared personal bath items in advance.

"You’re sleeping on the couch tonight."

Li Shuru squeezed toothpaste onto her brush.

Although makeup can be deceptively transformative these days, some women still withstand scrutiny.

Jiang Chen looked at the girl’s bare face, "You’ve seen it all, do we still need to pretend?"

Li Shuru stepped on his foot and continued brushing her teeth in front of the mirror.

Isn’t this what life is all about?

After washing up, the young couple walked into the living room.

The elders’ gazes focused on them, their eyes reflecting pleasure at the sight of a talented man and a beautiful woman.

"When did you come back?"

Li Shuru asked her cousin.

Not enough seats on the sofas, Xue Mingqin had prepared a few plastic stools.

"The other day, he switched jobs, so he’s not as busy anymore."

"Hong Zhi, I heard you’re now working at BlackRock?"

Li Shuru’s uncle, Chai Rong asked.

Liu Hongzhi, further climbing the ladder of success, nodded his head, just uttered a "hmm," retaining his usual scholarly demeanor but with an added air of stability and modesty compared to before.

"Incredible, even on a global scale, BlackRock is probably among the top-tier super-companies."

Chai Rong, a public servant, admired the situation. His position wasn’t very high, but at least, being a government employee on Qin Island, he had some status. However, in front of these youngsters, he couldn’t maintain an air of superiority.

"That’s an exaggeration."

Xue Gui did not share the same penchant for exaggeration as his wife Zou Luoxia.

"Brother, it’s no exaggeration at all, just look up the company and you’ll know how formidable it is."

Li Shuru’s younger aunt, Xue Shuzhi, spoke with a smile.

"Shuzhi, telling him that is like casting pearls before swine – he only knows the price of fish in the market."

Zou Luoxia teased her husband.

At that, everyone laughed.

Xue Gui shook his head, "Then you can buy the groceries from now on."

"It’s said that BlackRock manages over a trillion in assets, is that true?"

Chai Rong asked out of curiosity.

Even as a civil servant, with an iron rice bowl job within the system, he had his share of glory on Qin Island. But in a broader context, he was trivial.

"A trillion?"

Drinking water, Xue Gui almost choked. Although he knew from his daughter that his prospective son-in-law had switched to a more prestigious firm, what did he really know of this "prestige"?

What does a trillion look like?

Xue Gui had no concept of it in his mind.

Liu Hongzhi was neither arrogant nor haughty, having visibly matured since his last visit to Qin Island.

"Brother, don’t get too excited, the ’trillion’ here is not referring to RMB, but US Dollars."

Xue Shuzhi chimed in with a "finishing move".

A trillion US Dollars?!

Xue Gui was bewildered.

"Are there really companies in the world that rich?"

For him, billionaires were already at the limit of his imagination.

"You should ask Hong Zhi, he understands it better than any of us."

Once again, Liu Hongzhi became the center of attention.

"Uncle Uncle is right, the assets managed by BlackRock are indeed quite substantial."

He deliberately provided a general summary.

In reality.

As one of the world’s leading financial giants, the wealth controlled by BlackRock was far more than just a simple trillion dollars.

But he did not brag about it.

After all, he should address the person who hadn’t spoken a word as "brother-in-law", so where did he get the capital to boast?

Having deeply invested in a place like Wall Street, Liu Hongzhi definitely didn’t lack self-confidence, nor would he intentionally hide his aura and achievements.
