King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

But what Xiao Ran sent me was a photo of the front of a large truck, along with a section of the road that must be taken on the way back to the Jiangning villa from Hengdai Real Estate headquarters...

There's road construction going on there recently, reducing the four-lane road to two lanes. It's already very congested, dusty, and smoky...

Xiao Ran sent me a message: "Honey, this is a photo that Lü Tie sent to Xu Shaokun. I guess he's their next target. Look, there are so many large trucks hauling earth here, squeezing small cars together. It's very dangerous! I suggest that the three sisters take a detour home for a while and avoid this road!"

I replied to Xiao Ran: Okay! Thank you!

Song Huazhao didn't notice the change in my expression and continued talking to Xu Meiyun: "How could your father want your lives? But... he's unwittingly become an accomplice. Hasn't his will been changed now? It's changed so that after his death, all the shares under his name will be divided equally among you, Meijuan, and Meitong... So think about it, how can you get these shares back to Xu Shaokun without leaving an inappropriate will?"

"this......?"

Xu Meiyun looked at Song Huazhao in shock, her lips trembling as she said, "You mean... all three of us have to die, so... the shares can flow back to Xu Shaokun...?"

"Um!"

Song Huazhao smiled and nodded...

"so!"

Xu Meiyun exclaimed in horror, "He's not just going to kill me, but... he's going to kill my sister and my younger sister too?"

"Meiyun, come and see!"

I showed them the photos Xiao Ran had just sent me: "There's road construction going on here... it's packed with big trucks and small cars... This is a photo Lü Tie sent to Xu Shaokun. I reckon their next move is going to be here!"

"what?"

Xu Meiyun grabbed my wrist in terror: "Husband, save me! I...I don't want to die!"

"rest assured!"

I frowned and pondered, "I came to see my second sister because I wanted her to think of a way for us—whether to counterattack or defend!"

"Hiss~!"

Song Huazhao frowned and gasped, "Xiao Cheng, you must have gone out to talk to Xiao Ran on the phone just now... What did she say to you?"

Since Song Huazhao asked, I'll tell them everything that Xiao Ran just told me...

After hearing this, both of them were filled with shock!

"That's interesting! That's interesting!"

Song Huazhao said meaningfully, "Qiao Jingshu's plan is really shrewd! Old Xu is about to die... she's made arrangements for her children, and then found herself a new partner, so she'll never have to worry about wealth and status!"

"That's right..."

"My...my dad? He...?"

Tears welled up in Xu Meiyun's eyes again, and she said blankly, "My dad has pancreatic cancer? He... Waaah!"

Xu Meiyun couldn't hold back her emotions anymore and covered her face, sobbing.

Blood ties... they really do connect hearts!

Although Hsu Mei-yun and Hsu Chia-yi had a huge fight before, which even caused Hsu Chia-yi to have a heart attack and be hospitalized...

But truly, the bond between father and daughter is strong. When she learned that her father had an incurable disease, Xu Meiyun's heart couldn't bear it, and she burst into tears!

"Waaaah... My dad's such a bastard! Waaaah!"

She cried bitterly, "If he hadn't provoked that Qiao Jingshu, my mother wouldn't have died. Our family would be so happy now, sob sob! Now... that bastard child of Qiao Jingshu wants to kill us, sob sob! My dad is truly the most foolish father in the world!"

"well......!"

Song Huazhao sighed deeply: "As the saying goes, 'If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening!' The most tragic thing in a person's life is to be a fool... living a muddled life. So, tonight, we're visiting your father to awaken him, to make him fully realize his mistakes in the final moments of his life, so that he won't continue down the wrong path..."

"Yes! Second Sister..."

Xu Meiyun suddenly moved from the sofa and knelt in front of Song Huazhao, who immediately helped her up: "Oh dear, sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

"Second sister! I don't know how to thank you enough! Waaaaah!"

Xu Meiyun broke down in tears, saying, "You are our family's benefactor. Without you... I don't know what I would have done, sob sob? Second sister, no matter what, you will always be my dear second sister, sob sob sob!"

"Okay, okay, stop crying!"

Song Huazhao gently hugged Xu Meiyun, patted her back lightly, and comforted her, "You're my sister-in-law, if I don't care for you, who will... But right now, the most urgent thing is the security of you three sisters! It's best if the three of you don't gather together, that's one thing, and secondly... you also need to be discreet about your whereabouts, don't let others know where you are."

Song Huazhao frowned and pondered, "How about... you stay at my house for a while? No one in the Song family dares to cause trouble..."

"What? Second sister, you mean, you want the three of us sisters to live in the Song family's house?" Xu Meiyun looked at Song Huazhao in astonishment.

"Um!"

Song Huazhao nodded: "Our Song family estate has 45 villas. I own seven myself. You three sisters can choose one to live in... Normally, I'll direct the people below by phone. After I finish this game and send Xu Shaokun to the police station, you three sisters can come out..."

"this......?"

Xu Meiyun was a little worried and muttered while biting her lip, "Second sister, is this convenient? I don't mean anything by it... the key is your mother, she... seems to dislike me quite a bit."

"Hahaha!"

Song Huazhao laughed heartily, "Sister-in-law, she's just an elderly woman who's partially paralyzed and can't even take care of herself. Don't worry, Goddess Peak is very large, and the villas are scattered around. You live on the east side, and she's on the west side, so you won't see each other... You can also rest assured about the servants; the housekeepers in those villas are all my people!"

"Second sister, this..."

"Alright!"

Song Huazhao laughed and said, "Wouldn't it be more convenient for you to see Xiaocheng whenever you want? Otherwise... Xiaocheng misses you all so much at night, and you miss him too... Since you're all staying at Goddess Peak, it's only a ten-minute walk to meet him."

"And... what about my older sister?"

Xu Meiyun bit her lip and asked worriedly, "Second sister... please don't think I'm being blunt, but I... I'm always worried about how eldest sister treats Xiaocheng..."

"hehe!"

Song Huazhao laughed and said, "Silly sister-in-law, your eldest sister is just like me...we only have sibling feelings for Xiaocheng, not romantic feelings. Sometimes, we just put on an act for my mother. She's getting senile, so don't think of her as too scary..."

wipe!

Song Huazhao spoke so casually... but in my eyes, Yin Mei is the biggest boss!

I'm not qualified to go up against her yet!

"Second sister, how can we sisters thank you?" Xu Meiyun was moved to tears.

"No need to thank me!"

Song Huazhao laughed and said, "If you really want to thank me, then you should try to have more babies for Xiaocheng..."

One sentence made Xu Meiyun blush to the roots of her ears.

"Second Sister!"

I frowned and said, "This is fucking... utterly bizarre and lawless! I have audio recordings now. What would happen if I took these people to a higher court and reported them?"

"Ahem! Xiao Cheng!"

Song Huazhao sighed, "There's an old saying, 'Strike the snake at its seven-inch mark,' you can't attack blindly... If you report them now, in the best-case scenario, it's called attempted murder, right? Even in the strictest sentencing, it's only ten years in prison... It won't put them to death! Besides... this only involves Zhao Fuhai, it doesn't implicate Xu Shaokun... Think about it!"

She paused, then continued, "Xu Shaokun was beaten, and his own father stood up for him. That was his father's attempted murder. Whether Xu Shaokun wanted a share or wanted to silence him, he didn't directly organize or arrange for anyone to carry it out, right? And this grandson is the biggest scourge we need to eliminate! His crimes are more than enough to warrant being executed ten times over, so... let's wait for Xiao Ran's intelligence report before making any further decisions!"

"Um......"

I frowned and nodded: "Second Sister, what exactly is this game of chess you're referring to?"

"hehe!"

Song Huazhao chuckled slyly, "There's a hole in the wall, covered with a cloth, and inside is a ghost mimicking human speech. Everyone thinks it's a person... Do you think a smart person would lift the cloth and explain to everyone that it's a ghost, or gently shake the cloth to let the ghost curiously peek out and let everyone see for themselves?"

"Of course, it's best to let him make a fool of himself!"

I sighed and said, "What if it bites you when you lift the curtain?"

"Yes!"

Song Huazhao laughed and said, "That's exactly right!"

She had barely finished speaking when Xu Meiyun's phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was a call from Hengdai Real Estate...

"Feed?" Xu Meiyun answered the phone.

"..."

Xu Meiyun's expression changed instantly, though she didn't know what the other person said!

"Meiyun! What's wrong?" I asked anxiously.

Xu Meiyun's eyes were filled with terror, and her lips trembled as she answered, "Big sister...something happened to big sister!"
