King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

Xu Shaokun's words made my blood freeze...

What's going on?

Did he find out about my relationship with Lin Lan?

This guy... his background check methods are terrifyingly thorough; he even found out my postgraduate entrance exam scores and my sister's college entrance exam scores!

There's no reason he couldn't find out that Lin Lan and I dated for four years and lived together!

I had imagined the Xu family's "ecology" to be terrifying, but I never imagined it would be this terrifying!

Even in this dangerous situation, Lin Lan still had the mind to bring her daughter to celebrate my birthday with me. Unbelievable!

"Uh...Mr. Xu, I don't understand, what do you mean?" I asked calmly, trying to suppress my nervousness.

"Hahaha!"

Xu Shaokun laughed heartily: "What was the research direction of your graduate studies...? Solving the sow's apathy by not giving her medication? Making the sow act cute? How did you manage that?"

"Well......"

I was completely taken aback by his question. After hesitating for several seconds, I replied, "It's about dredging the meridians on the animal's back to promote blood circulation, regulate qi, clear stagnation, and activate the animal's own meridians... Mr. Xu, nowadays everyone is quite concerned about food safety. When using medication, there will inevitably be some drug residue. My research focuses on minimizing drug residue, which is actually based on the theory of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine..."

"Hahaha!"

Xu Shaokun laughed wildly, "Good, good, good! So that means this technique works on women too! Oh my! Song Cheng, I never expected you to be such a treasure of an assistant we hired!"

"No, no, no!"

I quickly explained, "Mr. Xu! Women are women, and animals are animals. How can they be the same? Their meridian pathways are completely different. Humans are primates, and pigs are even-toed ungulates. They're completely unrelated... not the same thing at all!"

"Stop trying to sound so sophisticated!"

Xu Shaokun scoffed, "Medicine is so advanced abroad now! Pig hearts, livers, and kidneys can all be transplanted into humans. What's the difference?"

"Uh...uh..."

"Alright! Wait for my call anytime, remember! Keep your phone on 24/7! Did you fucking forget my phone number?"

"Uh, no, no, no! I... I've got it!"

"snort!"

Xu Shaokun snorted coldly and hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, I swallowed hard and let out a long breath...

I did take his business card and look at his phone number, but I didn't have time to write it down...

"husband......"

Teacher Sun, her eyes filled with fear, clung to my arm: "What...what does he want to do? What sow, what woman?"

"Hmph...cough!"

I hugged Teacher Sun, let out a long breath, and casually took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag.

Teacher Sun looked at me with extreme tension and a pitiful expression... her body started trembling again.

"That's all nonsense..."

I scoffed, "Don't worry, it's none of your business!"

"Honey, I'm so scared, waaaaah!"

Teacher Sun hugged my neck and sobbed, "Honey, I don't want him to hurt you! Waaah! When can we get away from the Xu family and stop them from harassing us? Waaah!"

"cough!"

Looking at my fiancée's anxious and desperate eyes, I held her small hand and forced a relaxed smile, saying, "It's okay! Everything is under control... Once our daughter recovers and we've saved enough money, we'll run away and never have to deal with these scumbags again!"

"Um!"

Teacher Sun nodded, her breath coming in short gasps, and pressed her tear-streaked face against my chest again, choking out, "Once our daughter gets better, I'll resign and find a university teaching position in another city, leaving Jiangcheng... Husband, where are you from? Can I teach in your hometown? I'll be a good daughter-in-law and take good care of your parents..."

"Oh... my hometown is poor."

"I'm not afraid! As long as I'm with you, anywhere is paradise!"

Ms. Sun's thoughtfulness, gentleness, and understanding deeply moved me... I kissed her forehead tenderly again.

"By the way! Didn't Xu Meijuan promise to treat Tingting's illness? What did she say?" I asked, frowning.

"cough!"

Teacher Sun sighed, "Honey, this disease... can't be cured just by having money. It also requires a bone marrow match. Although my bone marrow is a half match, my PRA antibody levels are too high, so I can't be a match for her at all... I'm an only child, and Tingting has no siblings. Her father... refuses to help. Waiting for a match from an unrelated stranger is too risky, less than one in ten thousand..."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

I frowned and said, "Wang Hai is a beast! He won't even save his own daughter?"

"cough!"

Teacher Sun sighed deeply and whispered sadly, "I talked to him, and he said his new wife wouldn't allow it, and his relatives wouldn't help either... Ugh! I don't know what he's thinking. Honey, please don't mention him anymore, okay? Just hearing his name makes me feel nauseous!"

"You beast! You're a fucking beast!"

"husband......"

Teacher Sun sobbed, "We're already divorced, and our lives are now on opposite sides of the same coin... Xu Meijuan said she would do her best to find a bone marrow donor for me in the domestic bone marrow registry."

"Oh...that's good! By the way, could we have Tingting's bone marrow matched for our future child...?"

"No, no, no!"

Before I could finish speaking, Teacher Sun immediately dismissed it: "That's simply unrealistic. Not to mention I'm not even pregnant yet, even if we wait until our child is over three years old and can be matched for bone marrow transplantation... Tingting won't make it to that point."

"cough......!"

The atmosphere inside was oppressive; only the silent breathing of Mr. Sun and I could be heard...

"Honey, let's take a shower and go home. It's getting late, I need to cook for Tingting."

"Um!"

......

I took a shower with Teacher Sun, and then loaded all my things into the car... It was already past six o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at her house.

After helping me move the luggage home, Ms. Sun immediately tied on an apron and whispered in my ear, "Honey, go and rest in the master bedroom first... I'll cook dinner."

"good!"

......

The master bedroom in Professor Sun's house is filled with books, including those on veterinary medicine, those in Professor Sun's own field, and a large number of reference books of various types.

This family is clearly composed of highly educated intellectuals.

Simple, tidy, and old, yet filled with the aroma of books...

It's obvious that this is the house where she and Wang Hai lived back then.

In the photo frame on the bookshelf, there is still a family photo, but... Wang Hai's figure has been cut out by Teacher Sun, leaving only a human figure in the blank.

Lying on the double bed, the pillow still held the fragrance of Ms. Sun's hair and her intoxicatingly feminine scent...

I also felt a sense of disorientation and confusion... Is this going to be my home, Song Cheng's home?

A few years ago, I would never have imagined... that Dean Wang's house and Dean Wang's wife would eventually all belong to me. Life is truly an absurd drama!

Tingting was isolated in a room by herself.

Leukemia patients have extremely low resistance, so the indoor environment is almost sterile!

So, I, as her new father, can't meet her either, which at least avoids awkwardness...

After Teacher Sun prepared a meal for Tingting and brought it in, the mother and daughter chatted for quite a while. I thought to myself... she must have explained everything clearly.

Teacher Sun is a local of Jiangcheng, and her cooking is in the Huaiyang style, which tastes excellent! You could even say her culinary skills are superb!

You know, these days... a wife who can cook, and is quite good at it, is an absolutely top-tier, scarce resource! It can add at least twenty years to a husband's life!

We were practically newlyweds, and after dinner, she forgot all about preparing for her lessons the next day and fell head over heels in love with me again...

Our daughter was right next door, so we didn't dare make a sound. Even though Ms. Sun was having a hard time holding it in, she could only cover her mouth and stammer, her body trembling...

After the rain stopped, she lay on me, panting heavily, covered in sweat, and my gaze... unconsciously lingered once again on their family photo...

This feeling is strange; I can't quite put my finger on whether it's the thrill of being usurped or the regret of something not happening sooner!

"Husband... I regret it so much..." Teacher Sun hugged me tightly and said sadly.

"What's wrong, baby..." I kissed her forehead.

Teacher Sun looked up at me with a sorrowful expression: "If only I could have given you my first time! If only you had deflowered me... how wonderful that would have been!"

"Tsk! Cough! Why are you saying this?"

I smiled wryly and said, "I don't care about those things... I care about you as a person."

"You're lying!"

A hint of sadness and suspicion flashed in Teacher Sun's eyes: "What man wouldn't care? Especially... you're a young man who's never been married..."

"Honey, believe me... the first time really isn't that important. Let's live a good life together from now on, and look forward, okay?"

"Um!"

......

Teacher Sun, still somewhat doubtful, tucked her face back into my armpit.

She understands men's nature...that's right! No man truly doesn't care about a woman's first time! It's written into their genes!

But so what if you get it the first time?

Lin Lan gave me her virginity, but she still ran away and married someone else.

Embracing the virtuous and gentle Teacher Sun... this is what it truly means to live a down-to-earth life.

Just as Ms. Sun and I finished using the restroom and were about to fall asleep in each other's arms, my phone rang again...

Upon picking it up, I discovered it was Xu Shaokun's phone number again!

It's almost midnight, when will this relentless vengeful ghost ever stop?

"Feed? Mr. Xu!" I frowned as I answered the phone.

"Hahaha!"

Xu Shaokun laughed and said, "Song! It's been quite a while since you've seen your sister, hasn't it?"
