Chapter 297 - The Share Price (1)

Xie Yuansheng was getting very perturbed by Feng Xinying's constant throwing up any food that she was eating. He would make sure that Feng Xinying had had her tablets of iron, folic acid and calcium regularly. He was scared that if Feng Xinying was throwing up everything what was his baby eating inside her. He was so afraid that he would keep calling the doctor every now and then to tell her what to give Feng Xinying now that she had thrown. The doctor was getting irritated by Xie Yuansheng's calls and wanted to recommend a nutritionist for her just like she had recommended for Keira. But Xie Yuansheng never agreed to her. 

When that day he called her, she was into an emergency operation. She scolded him and said that he better get a nutritionist now. Xie Yuansheng sulked for being chided like a baby because he had disturbed her in the midst of an operation, and had run to the kitchen to make chicken soup for her.

Feng Xinying had that with satisfaction. She didn't throw after that and slept peacefully. At night when she slept, Xie Yuansheng went down to her tummy and started talking in whispers to his baby, "Your mother is sick child. Don't be angry with her. You eat whatever is there right now. I will learn more good stuff tomorrow for sure. Also I am keeping the best nutritionist for you. Just hang in there and talk to me everyday, okay?" He patted her tummy softly after that and came up to sleep beside on the same pillow. He curled his hands on her waist and automatically she turned towards him. She put her head in his neck. 

Next day when they woke up, Feng Xinying was again hungry. Xie Yuansheng had once again rushed to the kitchen to prepare chicken soup for her. That was the only thing she wouldn't throw up. But she was getting bored of it, though she didn't say anything. She sighed and thought of learning another dish for herself and for Xie Yuansheng. Since it was a Monday and Xie Yuansheng would go to the office, she had all the time in the world to learn it. Perhaps she would even go to his office with her homemade lunch. She became excited by the idea and thought she would keep that as a secret. 

While they were having breakfast, Xie Yuansheng turned on the business news channel. Most of the news was related to how the market would take up the disclosure of Feng Xinying's identity. There were pictures of the heiress being flashed everywhere. One of the channels was even showing her pictures as a model and said that she was a very successful model in America. Suddenly, they showed Luciano talking in one of the shows. Feng Xinying started laughing at him. Xie Yuansheng tried to change the channel, but she wanted to see what he was saying. 

Xie Yuansheng frowned and went away from there. Luciano was as usual looking like a Mexican parrot. He was wearing a red shirt and a red pants with a fluorescent green jacket over it and green shoes made from snake skin. He said that it was him who had discovered Feng Xinying and introduced her to the modeling career. He had supported her throughout the time she was in America. Under his wings, she had become a butterfly from the pupa. The TV anchor asked whether it was him who encouraged her to run away from home. He was shocked and said, "No! I only encouraged her into modeling!" 

The anchor looked at the audience and said, "If Mr. Luciano hadn't encouraged Miss Xinying into modeling, she would have returned and perhaps would have been the CEO of her company." 

When Luciano heard that, he suddenly felt like a villain. He became very quiet after that and answered only in a yes or no. Feng Xinying laughed and laughed to her heart's content. "He is such an idiot," she said and switched off the TV.

Suddenly she remembered that today the market would open. She ran to Xie Yuansheng who was still eating and sitting at the table reading the newspaper. "Xie Yuansheng, today the markets are going to open! What will happen to the company's prices?" 

Xie Yuansheng looked at her and pursed his lips. He sighed and said, "Whatever happens, you don't have to feel bad about it, okay? We can always digest even if the share prices fall." 

"But I am scared that Lim Chuen would try to buy the shares if the value falls," she said feeling very bad.

Xie Yuansheng looked at her and aid, "I told you, it doesn't matter darling." He picked his coat and started going to the office. Feng Xinying ran after him. "Xie Yuansheng, wait I have something to tell you."

"What is it babes?" he asked as he stepped into the car.

"I am planning to come to the office in the afternoon with a big surprise!" she said looking extremely excited.

Xie Yuansheng knew those looks. Before he could say a word, the car drove off and he suddenly felt queasy. He became nervous. How could he even concentrate in his office work? 

The market opened and the share price dropped by a 0.5 Yuan. It stayed like that for an hour. Lim Vhuen was waiting for the price to go down by at least one percent and then he would start buying them. However, after an hour of staying at 0.5 Yuan below the last closing price, the share price started climbing up. 

Lim Chuen looked at his screen totally shocked. Chang Ling was standing right there behind him. Both of them looked at the screen as though they had seen the devil inside. What was happening? Why was the share price increasing? It had to decrease! Why wasn't it going down? 

The value increased by two percent now. Instead of selling, people started buying it or holding their shares. 

What happened in the next one hour was so rare that the securities commission had to take drastic measures.
