Urban Cultivation: Starting with Winning Back My Wife and Daughter

As the saying goes, "Don't scheme against others, or you'll surely die."

The "self" here refers not only to oneself, but also to those who are very close to oneself.

Zhou Qianya's residence is a small private villa.

She moved out of her family home after graduating from university.

To outsiders, this beautiful woman is a proud and aloof strong woman.

She only becomes a different person when she is facing Lin Yuxi and Wang Xingyu.

Especially her attitude towards Wang Xingyu, which was even more venomous than a sharp tongue.

Wang Xingyu once suspected that Zhou Qianya was a lesbian and that she was in love with his wife. Otherwise, she was almost thirty years old and he had never seen her dating any other man.

"Darling, you've finally arrived."

"Oh, my little Xin'er, welcome to your godmother's house."

Zhou Qianya's face lit up with a bright smile. She first greeted Lin Yuxi, and then took Xiao Xin'er from her arms.

As for Wang Xingyu, she didn't even glance at him, treating him as if he didn't exist.

Wang Xingyu didn't want to make a fool of himself, so he said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm leaving my wife and kids in your care. I'll pick them up from the hotel after you've finished your class reunion."

Zhou Qianya said, "No. Since they're in Xingyun, I have to do my part as a host. I'll show them around Xingyun these next couple of days. You can go back to Haijiang if you don't have time. I'll take them back tomorrow afternoon."

Lin Yuxi was caught off guard by Zhou Qianya's sudden attack and asked, "Aren't you busy tomorrow?"

Zhou Qianya said, "I'm not busy. You probably don't have to work overtime, right?"

Lin Yuxi shook her head and said, "No overtime."

Zhou Qianya said directly, "Then it's settled."

Wang Xingyu pursed his lips and said, "You're really domineering. Honey, I'm leaving. Call me if you need anything."

Lin Yuxi gave him an apologetic look: "Be careful on the road. Xiao Xin'er, say goodbye to Daddy."

Little Xin'er said, "Goodbye, Daddy."

"goodbye!"

Wang Xingyu kissed the little guy on the forehead, then stamped Lin Yuxi's forehead with his own seal before getting into the car and leaving.

Zhou Qianya led Lin Yuxi and Xiao Xin'er into the living room and took out a large pile of snacks that she had bought earlier.

Xiao Xin'er's eyes lit up when she saw so much delicious food.

Zhou Qianya turned on the TV and put on a newly released Disney animated feature film.

"Thank you, Aunt Zhou."

Xiao Xin'er cheered and started watching the movie intently while eating snacks.

"You are welcome."

Zhou Qianya stroked Xiao Xin'er's hair, then turned to look at Lin Yuxi, gritting her teeth as she said, "Wang Xingyu deliberately called you 'wife' in front of me and even kissed you, showing off to me. And you just forgive him like that? You want to remarry him?"

Lin Yuxi smiled and nodded.

Zhou Qianya said helplessly, "You're hopeless."

Lin Yuxi said, "Qianya, you won't say that about me after you find someone you truly like."

Zhou Qianya said dismissively, "Men are all the same, I'm not interested in them."

Xiao Xin'er suddenly interjected, "Aunt Zhou, my dad is a good guy."

"Pfft"

Zhou Qianya couldn't help but laugh and asked, "What kind of good thing is he?"

"Uh-huh..."

Xiao Xin'er hummed in agreement for a while before saying, "Anyway, it's good stuff."

Zhou Qianya laughed even louder: "Baby, you're so cute."

Lin Yuxi couldn't help but smile.

After a while, Zhou Qianya suddenly stopped smiling, her expression becoming somewhat complicated, and said, "Yuxi, I'm getting engaged."

Lin Yuxi was slightly taken aback and asked, "When did you find a boyfriend? Why didn't you tell me?"

Zhou Qianya smiled wryly and said, "We only met for the first time three days ago."

Lin Yuxi frowned slightly and said, "A business marriage?"

Zhou Qianya hummed in agreement and said, "Zhao Jiancheng, the eldest son of the Zhao family, one of the six major business families in Xingyun, is quite handsome and has a good reputation, but he's a bit stern and has no sense of fun. Sometimes, I really envy you for being able to freely choose the person you like."

Lin Yuxi said, "You can too, if you want to."

Zhou Qianya sighed and said, "Things aren't as simple as you think. Children of wealthy families live a life of luxury from childhood, able to freely dispose of wealth that ordinary people couldn't earn in a lifetime. The price is that they have to make sacrifices for their families when necessary. I'm lucky that Zhao Jiancheng isn't the kind of spoiled brat who messes around with women. If it were a good-for-nothing playboy, his life would be over."

Lin Yuxi was just an ordinary person and powerless to help Zhou Qianya, so she asked, "When are you getting engaged?"

Zhou Qianya said, "The engagement banquet will be held next week."

Lin Yuxi was quite surprised: "So soon?"

Zhou Qianya gave a bitter smile and said, "There's no other way, our Zhou family needs 4 billion yuan for working capital."

Lin Yuxi suddenly remembered Luo Haifeng and Huang Qingyang, two wealthy men who had a very good relationship with Wang Xingyu, and asked, "If someone were willing to provide your Zhou family with 4 billion yuan, could that help you?"

She wasn't sure if Wang Xingyu could borrow money from the two of them, but seeing her best friend's helpless expression, Lin Yuxi decided to give it a try.

Zhou Qianya was taken aback, then grabbed her hand and said, "You really are my best friend. Tell me, who can you find to help you?"

Lin Yuxi said, "I don't have that ability. But Wang Xingyu knows two very wealthy tycoons; I can ask him for help."

Zhou Qianya laughed and said, "Forget it. Even if you can help me get through this time, what about next time? Besides, my family has already agreed to the Zhao family's proposal, and the invitations have been sent out. If we break off the engagement, it will be a slap in the face to the Zhao family, and it will definitely bring them retaliation. The worst thing is that I still won't have the right to choose my marriage. Maybe I'll end up marrying someone I don't like even more, and then I'll be completely finished."

Hey!

Lin Yuxi sighed deeply, unsure how to comfort her best friend.

......

On the other side, after leaving Zhou Qianya's villa, Wang Xingyu went directly to the Boyang Hotel.

Taking out the black card Xue Boyang had given him, Wang Xingyu said to the pretty receptionist, "I'd like a room."

Lin Yuxi and Xiao Xin'er were going to stay in Xingyun for the next couple of days, and Wang Xingyu had nothing to do back in Haijiang, so they decided to stay there for one night.

The receptionist took the black card, her expression changed, and she quickly entered the number on it into the computer. Wang Xingyu's name appeared on the screen.

"Mr. Wang, you are a super VIP customer of our Boyang Hotel. We will prepare the presidential suite for you right away."

The receptionist respectfully returned the black card to Wang Xingyu.

Ok?

Wang Xingyu was slightly taken aback and asked, "What kind of benefits does this black card offer?"

The receptionist explained, "Our Boya Hotel has three types of cards: Silver, Gold, and Black. The Black Card is the highest tier and can only be issued to Mr. Xue. So far, the hacker has only issued five. Guests holding a Black Card can not only stay at our Boya Hotel for free, but we will also provide them with the best service."
