Once Wang Hongyu's matter was resolved, Suning quickly took over the market left behind by Hongyu Group.

The original Hongyu Group building was transformed into Suning's Su Group building, and Suning naturally became the biggest beneficiary.

In addition, he was even more adept at smuggling than Wang Hongyu, and soon he became the undisputed leader in the smuggling circle.

While others might smuggle goods from overseas to the mainland market, Suning smuggles goods from the virtual world to the virtual world, offering all the scarce and sought-after goods they could want.

Then Su Ning brought Jiang Si, Zhuang Hanyan, and Chai Jing to this instance world and arranged for them to receive modern education; all that was needed was to arrange tutors for them.

Suning stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling night view on both sides of the Pearl River.

His tall figure was reflected in the glass curtain wall, with three women in ancient costumes standing behind him, their eyes filled with surprise and curiosity about this unfamiliar world.

"Master, where is this place?" Jiang Si asked softly, her fingers unconsciously clenching her sleeves.

“Another vast world.” Su Ning smiled slightly, turned to look at them, “more exciting and more complex than your original world.”

Zhuang Hanyan looked around, her gaze falling on the flashing electronic screen: "These... are all mechanical devices?"

“This is called technology,” Su Ning explained patiently. “It’s more sophisticated and more widespread than mechanical engineering.”

Chai Jing gripped the long sword at his waist, scanning his surroundings warily: "Su Ning, is there any danger here?"

“Danger?” Su Ning chuckled. “Here, the most dangerous thing is often not swords, but people’s hearts.”

He clapped his hands, and three AI robots walked in from outside the door. They looked no different from ordinary people, except that their eyes were slightly empty.

“They will teach you about this world,” Su Ning said. “From language and history to technology and business, you need to adapt as quickly as possible.”

Jiang Si nodded slightly: "Don't worry, Master, we won't let you down."

Zhuang Hanyan and Chai Jing nodded solemnly.

Su Ning smiled with satisfaction: "Very good! Remember! Here, you are no longer chivalrous women of the martial arts world, but modern women."

"Hehe, I understand."

"Also, from now on you can just call me by my name."

"it is good."

……

After settling Jiang Si, Zhuang Hanyan, and Chai Jing, Su Ning began to do other things.

The Go Master Class project has officially begun, and this time Suning will certainly not be looking for someone like Zhang Yingjie.

Zhang Yingjie's manipulation of Cui Ye was truly disgusting; in the end, the Go master class also became his.

Suning sat at his desk, tapping his fingertips lightly on the surface, his gaze sweeping over the project proposal on the table.

"President Su, Zhang Yingjie is outside. He says he wants to see you," the secretary said in a low voice as she entered the room.

Su Ning sneered, "Let him in."

"Yes, Mr. Su."

Zhang Yingjie quickly pushed open the door and entered, his face plastered with a fawning smile: "President Su, I heard you're going to hold a Go master class? As the principal of the Children's Palace, I know quite a few people in the Go world..."

“Principal Zhang,” Su Ning interrupted him, her eyes cold, “Do you think I would hire someone like you?”

Zhang Yingjie's smile froze: "President Su, what do you mean by this?"

"What do you mean?" Su Ning scoffed. "When you were scheming to take Cui Ye's prize money and trophy, why didn't you ask yourself what you meant?"

Zhang Yingjie's face flushed instantly: "That...that was a misunderstanding! I..."

"Hmph! I don't think this is a misunderstanding."

"President Su, I... I'm just trying to make a living, aren't I?"

"That's why I dare not hire someone like you! You'll end up emptying my Go master class, and I might even be forced to thank you."

"No way! Absolutely not."

"Alright." Su Ning waved his hand, as if shooing away an annoying fly. "I don't need someone like you. If you're really capable, go and run your own master class."

After Zhang Yingjie slunk away, Cui Ye came out of the next room with a furrowed brow.

Cui Ye looked at Su Ning with confusion and asked, "Su Ning, why don't you use him?"

"Teacher Cui, you've worked with Zhang Yingjie for so long, don't you know what kind of person he is?"

"Well... I actually think he's a pretty good person."

“Teacher Cui,” Su Ning shook her head, “you are too kind. People like Zhang Yingjie only know how to turn good things into bad things.”

"I'm asking you! When he embezzled your prize money and trophy, did you ever think about smashing his head in?"

"I……"

"Teacher Cui, do you believe that if I hand over this Go master class to him, he can empty the entire master class?"

Cui Ye remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed: "Perhaps you are right."

Next, Suning invited Director Chen from the city's investment promotion office, and then extended invitations to business owners in Guangzhou who were interested in Go.

After all, Suning is now considered a rising star in Guangzhou's business district, and many curious business owners are happy to get close to it.

……

Meanwhile, Cui Ye arranged to meet his ex-wife Gao Shuhua at a Western restaurant.

Gao Shuhua sat at the dining table, her fingertips unconsciously tapping the surface.

Her makeup was exquisite, but her eyes revealed fatigue.

Cui Ye pushed open the door and entered, dressed in a sharp suit with a cold gaze.

"You're looking for me?" Gao Shuhua looked up, her tone indifferent.

However, Cui Ye reminded Gao Shuhua not to try to take Yan Yan away after divorcing him.

When Gao Shuhua saw the message, she realized that she had been set up by Cui Ye, and she couldn't help but feel angry.

In fact, it is difficult for men and women to understand each other. Cui Ye cannot understand Gao Shuhua's ambition, and Gao Shuhua cannot understand Cui Ye either.

This was the biggest conflict between Cui Ye and Gao Shuhua, and in the end, the couple still went their separate ways.

Faced with Gao Shuhua's angry accusations, Cui Ye remained calm and produced Yan Yan's medical diagnosis report.

Cui Ye sat down, took a document out of his briefcase, and pushed it in front of her. "Hmph! Take a look at this first."

Gao Shuhua frowned, opened the document, and her face instantly turned pale.

"ALS?!" She looked up abruptly, her voice trembling, "How could Yan Yan..."

"Now you know how to care about him?" Cui Ye sneered. "Where were you last year when he had a fever of 40 degrees Celsius? Were you on a business trip with Wang Hongyu?"

Gao Shuhua's fingers gripped the edge of the document tightly, her knuckles turning white: "That's work! I..."

"Work?" Cui Ye interrupted her, his eyes sharp as knives. "Is your job more important than your son's life?"

Gao Shuhua opened her mouth, but ultimately remained silent.

Cui Ye stood up and looked down at her: "I have borrowed one million from Su Ning and am preparing to take Yan Yan to Hong Kong for treatment."

If you still want to be his mother, come with me to accompany him.

Gao Shuhua lowered her head, tears falling onto the table.

Cui Ye said no more and got up to leave.

He ignored Gao Shuhua's heartbroken tears and instead paid the bill generously before leaving the restaurant.

"Undercooked, tastes awful."

Before leaving, he couldn't help but complain about how bad the undercooked steak was.

The differences between the couple became tangible at this moment.

After learning the truth, Gao Shuhua was forced to return to her family, but for her, it was an endless torment.

This is why Su Ning told Cui Ye that a woman who has changed her heart is not worth keeping, because living with such a woman is truly too torturous.

...Just as Cui Ye had predicted, after Wang Hongyu was arrested, she didn't mention a word about Cui Ye.

He believed that Cui Ye had been killed in the bombing and was afraid that his smuggling case would be implicated in another murder.

"Wang Hongyu, I heard you transferred Hongyu Group to Suning?"

"Don't misunderstand! This is normal business practice. Hongyu Group has other shareholders. After such a big incident, it is unlikely that I can continue to operate the company."

"Aren't you curious about who blackmailed you?"

"I, Wang Hongyu, have been wronged this time, and I truly feel extremely aggrieved."

"Based on the clues we have from the police, it is definitely not Qin Xiaoming who is extorting you; in fact, Qin Xiaoming may have already been murdered."

"Perhaps! These things are no longer important now."

Cui Wei failed to extract any useful information from Wang Hongyu, and the case reached a stalemate.

However, he was puzzled by Jin Chunsheng's suicidal act, guessing that he was willing to sacrifice his life to protect someone.

The funeral home handled Jin Chunsheng's body according to regulations. Cui Wei sat silently in the courtyard when he suddenly noticed a rat surrounding the corpse of another rat in the grass, which gave him an idea.

Just then, Cui Wei remembered the radio he had seen on the boat and came up with a plan.

Then Cui Wei applied to the bureau to become an invited guest on the radio, specifically to educate the audience about the law.

During the live radio broadcast, Xiao Ding deliberately revealed that Jin Chunsheng had been shot and killed while on the run.

Cui Wei then explained that the remains of criminals would be handed over to the relevant departments for safekeeping, and if no one claimed them within the specified period, they would be handed over to the local civil affairs department for processing, and temporarily kept in the funeral home and cremated according to the procedure.

Immediately afterwards, another officer made a phone call as planned, denouncing the criminals as deserving to be utterly destroyed. This was intended to provoke the suspect they had caught.

However, Xia Jinsheng had already been eliminated by Cui Ye, so there was no longer any burden for him, which meant that Cui Wei's plan was doomed to fail.

Unexpectedly, the bureau leaders were enraged by Cui Wei's live broadcast and immediately gave Cui Wei and his team a thorough scolding over the phone.

So not only did Cui Wei not receive Jin Xiasheng's call, he was also severely criticized and educated by the bureau leaders.

Cui Wei sat in his office, surrounded by piles of case files.

He rubbed his temples, his eyes bloodshot.

"Team Leader Cui, there's still no word from the funeral home," Xiao Ding reported in a low voice as he pushed open the door.

Cui Wei was silent for a moment, then suddenly slammed his fist on the table: "Damn it!"

He originally thought that releasing the news of Jin Chunsheng's death would enrage the escaped robber.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not react at all.

"Master, could it be... that he is really dead?" Xiao Ding asked cautiously.

Cui Wei did not answer.

His gaze fell on the photo of the two brothers on the wall, and he felt a mix of emotions.

"Cui Ye..." he murmured, "What are you hiding?"

However, Cui Wei could not shake his suspicions about his younger brother, Cui Ye. Cui Ye was present at the scene of the credit union robbery and was also involved in the case of Wang Hongyu's extortion.

The main credit union robbery and Wang Hongyu's extortion case are closely related.

Unfortunately, he had no solid evidence at all, not even any clues pointing to Cui Ye.

This naturally made Cui Wei feel particularly depressed and frustrated, and at the same time, he did not want Cui Ye to participate in the crime. This contradictory and complicated feeling caused him a lot of pain.

……

The Go Master Class project proceeded very smoothly, and a beautiful location was quickly selected.

With the support of Suning, a rising star in the business world, and the appearance of a key official, the Go master class became a great success.

Soon, the Go master class opened with great fanfare, and Cui Wei, with a complicated expression, came to attend with his wife and daughter.

In the scenic resort, colorful flags fluttered and the air was filled with the lively sounds of people.

Cui Ye stood on the stage, impeccably dressed in a suit, with a confident smile.

The audience was filled with business tycoons and Go enthusiasts.

Nowadays, Cui Ye has been in contact with many important figures and seems to be enjoying great success.

"Daddy, Uncle is so amazing!" the daughter said innocently, looking up.

Cui Wei forced a smile but did not answer.

After the ceremony, Cui Wei stopped Cui Ye and took out a bank card: "Take this and use it to treat Yan Yan's illness."

Cui Ye shook his head: "No need, I've already borrowed the money. Su Ning lent me one million."

"Borrow?" Cui Wei sneered. "Why should Suning lend you a million? What kind of deal do you have?"

"Why so many questions? It's just that I have a good relationship with Su Ning!"

"Hmph! This is a million, not a hundred. I would never believe that Suning has no ulterior motives."

“Cui Wei, I suddenly realize that you are a very narrow-minded person. You always think the worst of people.”

"Isn't that right? Wang Hongyu went in, and Hongyu Group was taken over by Suning. I don't believe there wasn't some shady dealing involved."

Cui Ye's face instantly darkened: "Cui Wei, are you sick? Do you see everyone as a criminal?"

"Then tell me, why do you always appear at crime scenes?" Cui Wei took a step closer and lowered his voice, "You're involved in the credit union robbery and the Wang Hongyu extortion case!"

"A coincidence!" Cui Ye roared. "If you doubt me, then produce the evidence!"

The two brothers were at each other's throats, drawing the attention of the surrounding guests.

Finally, Cui Wei took a deep breath, turned around, and left.

……

Su Ning was naturally unaware of the fierce conflict between the Cui brothers, Cui Ye and Cui Wei, and even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared, since Cui Wei had no evidence whatsoever.

Besides, if Cui Ye were to slip up one day, it's unlikely that I would be implicated, since it seems like Cui Ye was the one who did it all.

I also believe that Cui Ye isn't that confused. As long as he doesn't want to eat peanuts, he would never reveal everything.

Then Suning advertised on television and in newspapers, officially launching the "Su Family Folk Chess Saint Cup" competition.

They also hired many part-time workers to distribute flyers everywhere, making this "folk chess master cup" a great success.

The main reason is that the prize money offered by Suning is attractive enough, so many amateur Go players who consider themselves to be good at Go came to pay the registration fee to participate.

However, Su Ning suddenly noticed a familiar face, which turned out to be Xia Yu, the seemingly insignificant minor character.

I never expected to run into her again, and Xia Yu turns out to be a part-time temporary worker handing out flyers.

At this moment, Su Ning couldn't help but feel curious, so he went up to ask Xia Yu about her situation and confirmed that she was indeed Xia Yu, the female worker from the textile factory.

Xia Yu's situation is indeed quite special. Her father not only has a history of debt and accidentally killing someone, but he is also addicted to gambling and is definitely a complete scumbag.

"Xia Yu, would you be interested in working for our Su Group?"

"Huh? I... I don't know anything."

"What is your educational background?"

"After graduating from junior high school, I took over the job at the textile factory after my mother passed away, becoming the youngest employee in the entire factory."

"Working in a textile factory is indeed quite stable! However, there is probably no future in it, and you may have to work in a textile factory for the rest of your life."

"..."

“Our Su Group mainly deals in foreign trade and mobile phone retail. We can arrange for you to work as a sales clerk in a mobile phone store or as a receptionist in the company.”

"Mr. Su, thank you! I'd like to go back and think about it."

"No problem! I'll wait for your reply."
