Underworld: Starting with conquering countless lustful beauties

"discuss?"

Bai Wei finally spoke, her voice cold and clear, "Crow, just say what you have to say."

"Oh, sister-in-law, aren't you being too polite?"

Crow put down his teacup, his smile growing even more ingratiating. "We're all family, what can't we discuss? Sister-in-law, you know, since Big Brother left, things have been a bit chaotic in the West District. The brothers are constantly on edge, business is tough, and we're barely making ends meet."

He sighed, looking heartbroken.

"The brothers are all talking about it privately, saying that things can't go on like this. What do you think...?"

"Can you do what?"

Bai Wei interrupted him, her gaze sharp as a knife, "Explain yourself."

The crow's smile froze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

"Sister-in-law, I'll be frank."

He leaned forward, placed his hands clasped on the table, and his tone became earnest, "You're a woman, always out in the sun and wind, it must be so hard for you. Your brother in heaven wouldn't be happy to see this, would he?"

Besides…

He abruptly changed the subject, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes, "The business world is full of intrigue and deceit. How can a woman like you handle it? What if you get hurt? Perhaps..."

"Not as good as what?"

Bai Wei's voice suddenly turned cold, "How about I give up my seat to you?"

"Sister-in-law, what you said is very hurtful."

A flicker of displeasure crossed Crow's face, but he quickly put on a smile again. "The brothers are truly thinking of you. Think about it, those battlefields, those nightclubs—aren't they all high-stakes businesses? You're a woman, with elderly parents to support, and... well, even though you don't have children, you still have to plan for your future, right?"

When he said "no children," he deliberately emphasized the words, as if he were reopening Bai Wei's wounds.

Zhou Ming never had any children, which was always a source of pain for Bai Wei.

Bai Wei's face paled instantly, and her hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, but she forced herself not to lash out.

"Crow, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"Sister-in-law, I respect you as my elder brother's widow, so I'm offering you kind advice."

The crow finally tore off its mask of hypocrisy, its smile vanishing, replaced by coldness and greed.

He pulled a stack of documents from his pocket and slammed them on the table with a "thud".

"This is the company's equity transfer agreement. You sign it, the brothers will chip in, and we'll give you two million. With this money, you can go abroad, or go wherever you want to have a good time, living the high life for the rest of your days. What do you think?"

Looking at the agreement, Bai Wei felt a chill run from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

Two million?

Those properties are worth at least 20 million, and these heartless bastards actually think they can get rid of her with just 2 million?

What if I don't sign?

Bai Wei slowly raised her head, meeting the crow's cold eyes, and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Not signing?"

The crow sneered, leaned back, and its triangular eyes were full of threat.

"Sister-in-law, let me make this clear. You have to sign this agreement, whether you like it or not. If you know what's good for you, we can part ways amicably, and you'll still be our sister-in-law, and we brothers will still visit you during holidays. But if you don't know what's good for you, then you're cutting off our livelihood."

He paused, then his voice suddenly turned sinister:

"Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents. Sister-in-law, you surely understand this principle, don't you?"

Bai Wei's chest heaved violently; the anger she had suppressed all night could no longer be contained.

"crow!"

She jumped to her feet, her finger trembling as she pointed at him. "How did your older brother treat you when he was alive? When you first came to Xicheng, who took you in? Who fed you, clothed you, and promoted you from a small-time hoodlum to a trusted confidant? His body is barely cold, and you're already trying to seize his family business?!"

"You ungrateful wretch!"

The crow turned ashen-faced from the scolding, but then it chuckled coldly and harshly.

"Sister-in-law, don't try to pressure me with a dead person."

He stood up and slowly walked towards Bai Wei, each step exuding a sense of oppression.

"When Zhou Ming was alive, we called him 'Big Brother,' and we all listened to him. But now that he's dead, he's nothing! In this world, might makes right. What right do you, a widow, have to sit in that position and boss people around?"

"you……!"

Bai Wei was so angry that she trembled all over and her eyes turned red.

She raised her hand and slapped the crow hard across the face!

"Snapped!"

The slap was crisp and loud, particularly jarring in the quiet private room.

The crow's head was knocked to one side, and a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of its beak.

He slowly turned his head, licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"You shameless bitch, you don't know what's good for you!"

He grabbed Bai Wei by the neck with such force that he almost lifted her up!

Bai Wei was being choked until she couldn't breathe, her face turning bright red. She futilely patted the crow's arm with both hands, making choking "uh uh" sounds.

Uncle Liu was shocked and tried to rush to save the man, but was held down by two burly men.

The two bodyguards were also surrounded by a group of people and unable to move.

"I'm telling you, Bai Wei!"

The crow snarled close to her face, spitting as it roared, "If you don't sign today, I'll have all the brothers here play with you one by one. Your big brother's been dead for so long, you must be really thirsty, right?"

The crow's hand gripped Bai Wei's swan-like neck tightly, its nails digging deep into her delicate flesh.

Bai Wei, suffocating from lack of oxygen, collapsed into Crow's arms, her chest heaving violently. Her black cheongsam was stretched taut, seemingly about to burst, presenting a breathtakingly fragmented beauty.

Just then—with a "bang," the door to the private room was pushed open from the outside.

A figure in a white suit appeared in the doorway, his tone flippant yet tinged with a chilling undertone:

"Crow, stop!"

The crow turned its head and saw Zhao Tai!

Zhao Tai, dressed in a white suit, looked out of place in the dimly lit restaurant.

He pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, a fake smile playing on his lips, the kind of smile that comes with self-proclaimed high society.

"Young Master Zhao, what brings you here?"

Although Crow was polite in words, he didn't loosen his grip; he had to show his ruthlessness in front of Zhao Tai.

Zhao Tai slowly walked up to the two of them, extended a long but slightly pale hand, and gently patted Crow's arm. His voice was soft but carried an undeniable arrogance:

"I told you, you have to be gentle with beautiful women. Especially someone as stunning as Madam Bai, you'll scare her if you act like this."

The crow chuckled dryly twice before reluctantly letting go.

"Cough cough...cough!"

Bai Wei suddenly collapsed onto the mahogany chair, clutching her neck and coughing violently, greedily inhaling the air.

Physiological tears slid down her cheeks, leaving two tear tracks on her beautiful, yet tragically beautiful face.

Zhao Tai sat down opposite Bai Wei, crossed his legs, and his bloodshot eyes roamed over her body without any attempt to hide his gaze, from her beautiful but tragic face to her voluptuous figure tightly wrapped in a cheongsam.

"Madam Bai, you've been frightened."

Zhao Tai took out a clean white handkerchief from his pocket and flirtatiously tried to wipe away Bai Wei's tears.

Bai Wei subconsciously turned her face away, her eyes filled with wariness and disgust.

Although she was disheveled at the moment, she still maintained her aura as the eldest sister-in-law:

"Zhao Tai...you and Crow were in cahoots all along, weren't they?"
