Urban Cultivation: Starting with Winning Back My Wife and Daughter

In the eyes of Taoist cultivators, worldly fame and status are worthless. Only those who are stronger than them and have gone further on the path to immortality will earn their respect.

Jiang Zhuo looked at him intently and said in a firm tone, "You guessed right. I returned to China to pursue Yu Xi again. I want to make her Mrs. Jiang."

Wang Xingyu smiled and said, "First of all, Yuxi is a self-respecting, strong woman with an independent personality. Even if she gets married, she will not become her husband's appendage. Secondly, you are too late. We will remarry soon."

Lin Yuxi rejected Jiang Zhuo's advances by citing the reason of remarrying. She was worried that Jiang Zhuo would ask Wang Xingyu for confirmation, so she told Wang Xingyu about it during lunch. However, she did not expect Jiang Zhuo to arrive so quickly.

Jiang Zhuo said, "I heard you've become obsessed with a female internet celebrity named Xie Xiaoqing, and even owe a mafia boss 8.6 million yuan because of her, is that right?"

Wang Xingyu's pupils contracted slightly. He said, "Your investigation is very detailed. However, all your information is outdated. I've already paid off the 8.6 million debt, and that gangster boss is dead. As for Xie Xiaoqing, I feel disgusted just looking at her face. All I want now is to remarry Yunxi and raise our daughter. It would be even better if we could have a son."

Jiang Zhuo sneered, "The question is, can you bring Yu Xi a happy life with just this little clinic? Wang Xingyu, if you truly love Yu Xi, then leave as soon as possible and don't hold her back."

Wang Xingyu said smugly, "Yu Xi will be happy as long as she marries me. There's nothing I can do about it, she likes me."

Jiang Zhuo frowned and said, "You're just a kept man. Wang Xingyu, you were a top scorer in the college entrance exam, when did you become so shameless?"

Wang Xingyu shrugged and said in a tone that was infuriatingly infuriating, "I like being a kept man. Especially Yu Xi's kept man, I really like it."

"you..."

Jiang Zhuo's face turned red with anger.

Wang Xingyu chuckled inwardly.

Damn it, you're such a show-off.

Jiang Zhuo took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and said, "Yu Xi earns at most three or four hundred thousand a year. How about this, I'll give you eight million, and you leave Haijiang, how about that?"

Wang Xingyu scoffed and said dismissively, "Eight million? You're trying to fob me off like a beggar."

Jiang Zhuo, who had finally managed to suppress his anger, was ignited again by Wang Xingyu's words. He said, "Then tell me, how much money would it take for you to leave Yu Xi and her daughter?"

Wang Xingyu thought for a moment and then held up one finger.

Jiang Zhuo said, "Ten million?"

Wang Xingyu shook his head.

"You didn't say it was one hundred million, did you?"

"It's 100 million per month."

"You're fucking kidding me."

Jiang Zhuo suddenly stood up, completely consumed by anger.

"You were just teasing me first. I, Wang Xingyu, like money, but I'm not so desperate as to sell my wife and children."

Wang Xingyu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yu Xi loves me, not you. No matter how much you give for her, she will never fall in love with you. Jiang Zhuo, you're not getting any younger. As your older brother, let me give you some advice: with your looks and talents, if you just take your eyes off Yu Xi, countless beautiful women will throw themselves at you. Why give up the whole forest for a tree you can't have?"

"Wang...Xing...Yu"

Jiang Zhuo was furious and shouted, "You're a complete bastard!"

Wang Xingyu clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Thank you for the compliment. I've always thought it's good to be a scoundrel, at least it's better than being a gentleman."

Jiang Zhuo is gone!

Without looking back, he stormed off in a huff!

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out why Lin Yuxi would fall for a man like Wang Xingyu.

This is like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung.

No, even using cow dung to describe Wang Xingyu is an insult to the word "cow dung".

In stark contrast to Jiang Zhuo, Wang Xingyu actually had a good impression of his rival in love.

The karmic pearl reminded him that Jiang Zhuo's merits amounted to 186,000.

This shows that he has done a lot of good deeds.

Wang Xingyu examined the thickest causal line on Jiang Zhuo's body and discovered that this guy had been sponsoring the education of more than 30 impoverished students since graduating from university, spending about 500,000 yuan every year.

Judging from Jiang Zhuo's appearance, he is a very upright person. He is fashionable on the outside but conservative on the inside, and his feelings for Lin Yuxi are completely genuine.

This is precisely why Wang Xingyu is having a major headache.

If Jiang Zhuo were a scoundrel with negative moral character, Wang Xingyu could use countless methods to ruin him.

But this guy is a kind person, which makes things a bit difficult for Wang Xingyu.

That evening, Xinghua Bank hosted a banquet to welcome Jiang Zhuo into their family.

Lin Yuxi couldn't refuse, so she told Wang Xingyu and then went with her colleagues to a nice hotel.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Jiang Zhuo said bluntly in front of everyone, "Yu Xi, I've been drinking and I can't drive. Could you please take me home?"

All eyes turned to Lin Yuxi.

No one expected that Jiang Zhuo would fall for Lin Yuxi, a divorced young woman.

Lin Yuxi said, "President Jiang, I live in Sunshine Community. May I ask where you live?"

Jiang Zhuo chuckled and said, "What a coincidence. I also rent an apartment in Building 10 of the Sunshine Community."

fate?

Where do all these coincidences come from?

But since things had already gone this far, Lin Yuxi couldn't refuse any longer.

Seeing Jiang Zhuo rushing to have Lin Yuxi take him home, Chang Yanna gritted her teeth in anger, but there was nothing she could do.

On the way, Jiang Zhuo said, "I went to see Wang Xingyu this afternoon."

Lin Yuxi frowned slightly and asked, "What do you want with him?"

Jiang Zhuo didn't hide anything and said, "I advised him to leave you."

Lin Yuxi sighed and said, "Jiang Zhuo, I really don't deserve your affection."

Jiang Zhuo said, "Whether it's worth it or not, I know for sure. I just want to tell you that even if you don't like me, you'd better not remarry him. Otherwise, you'll definitely regret it in the future."

Lin Yuxi said, "Your conversation doesn't seem to be going well."

Jiang Zhuo said indignantly, "He's just a good-for-nothing who lives off a woman."

After Lin Yuxi became Wang Xingyu's girlfriend, Jiang Zhuo had someone investigate Wang Xingyu and discovered that he was a top medical genius who consistently ranked first in his major courses every year.

Although Jiang Zhuo was unwilling to lose to such a person, he could accept it.

Seven years have passed, and today, when they meet again, Wang Xingyu's words and actions greatly disappoint Jiang Zhuo, who also feels sorry for Lin Yuxi.

Lin Yuxi smiled and said, "You may have some misunderstandings about him."

Jiang Zhuo said, "No, I trust my judgment. He and his clinic definitely can't bring you happiness."

Lin Yuxi said, "Happiness needs to be earned and created by oneself, rather than relying on others, including one's parents and husband."

Jiang Zhuo slapped his forehead and said, "What exactly did Wang Xingyu feed you? How could he make you so devoted to him?"

Lin Yuxi smiled and said, "You'll understand when you find the girl you can truly spend your life with."

"Why!"

Jiang Zhuo let out a long sigh.

The car entered the Sunshine Community, and Lin Yuxi dropped Jiang Zhuo off at the foot of Building 10.

Lin Yuxi declined his invitation to come upstairs and returned home.

At this moment, Wang Xingyu and Xiao Xin'er were lying on the ground stacking blocks.

Upon seeing Lin Yuxi, Xiao Xin'er immediately scrambled to her feet, pointed to the stack of blocks that had already reached a meter high, and said proudly, "Mommy, look! Aren't we tall enough?"

Lin Yuxi stepped forward and kissed her on the cheek, laughing, "Great! Our little Xin'er is really amazing."

Xiao Xin'er said, "Dad is amazing too."

Lin Yuxi said, "Yes, you're all amazing. How about you finish the rest of the blocks? Mom needs to talk to Dad about something."

Xiao Xin'er said, "No problem."

Stepping onto the balcony, Lin Yuxi asked, "Did Jiang Zhuo come to see you this afternoon?"

Wang Xingyu nodded and said, "Yes."

"What did you two talk about? I've noticed he has a lot of complaints about you."

"This guy conducted a thorough investigation into us; he even knew about my debts to the underworld. And he made it clear that he came back to China to pursue you. He even offered eight million to get me out of Haijiang and never come back to bother you and the child again. Haha, it's only because I have a good temper that I managed to hold back. Otherwise, it's hard to say whether he could even leave my traditional Chinese medicine clinic."

"Jiang Zhuo rented an apartment in Building 10 of this residential complex."

Wang Xingyu's face instantly darkened, and his voice turned icy as he said, "He's courting death."

It's unacceptable for someone to try and steal your wife right in your own neighborhood, let alone for Wang Xingyu.

Lin Yuxi said, "Jiang Zhuo is not a bad person, you shouldn't hurt him."

"He is my rival in love, and he has caused me more harm than ordinary bad people."

Lin Yuxi raised an eyebrow and said, "You have so little confidence in yourself?"

Wang Xingyu sighed and said, "After all, I'm someone who has made mistakes. Where do I get my confidence? Compared to Jiang Zhuo, my only advantage is that I'm Xiao Xin'er's father. But I don't want you to compromise yourself and reluctantly agree to remarry me for Xiao Xin'er's sake."

"I have already clearly rejected Jiang Zhuo."

"It's no use. He definitely won't give up unless we remarry."

Wang Xingyu's heart stirred, and he said, "Yu Xi, I want to move into your house."

Without even thinking, Lin Yuxi refused: "No, I don't agree."

Wang Xingyu said, "Then I'll rent an apartment in the Sunshine Community too."

Lin Yuxi said irritably, "Do you really need to be so alarmed?"

Wang Xingyu wanted to use this opportunity to move in, saying, "Jiang Zhuo is definitely my biggest enemy. Think about it, this kid is your boss, you'll definitely have a lot of interaction at work. Now that he's living in Sunshine Community, I'm sure he'll try every possible way to interact with you in your personal life. He's already infiltrated our ranks, how can I not be anxious?"

Lin Yuxi said, "You're wasting money."

Wang Xingyu resorted to shamelessness: "Then let me move in, consider it as me renting one of your bedrooms, and I'll pay you rent."

Lin Yuxi replied without hesitation, "Don't even think about it."
