King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

Xiao Ran didn't have a moment's rest all afternoon!

In order to gain my trust and favor, she not only kept a close watch on Xu Shaokun and Xiao Zhenjiang's cell phone movements and relayed every little thing happening at the Xishan Villa, but she also personally went to the Xu family's song and dance troupe!

Implanting a virus by connecting someone else's phone to a computer is like "waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump"—too passive! So Xiao Ran chose to take the initiative!

Although the Xu family's song and dance troupe doesn't have a good "reputation," it doesn't mean they don't take on legitimate business!

For example, large-scale commercial performances, celebratory shows, and some public welfare cultural and entertainment programs.

Today marks the 30th anniversary of Juneng Technology's founding!

Xiao Zhenjiang had been talking about organizing a large-scale 30th anniversary celebration performance...

Xiao Ran used this as an excuse to try and "borrow" talent from the Xu family's song and dance troupe, since that place had many beautiful women and high-level performances!

The USB drive she brought contained a few videos of her favorite shows from the large-scale cultural and entertainment performance in the capital, as well as a virus that Xiao Ran had programmed herself!

Once this USB drive is plugged into the computers of the Xu Family Dance Troupe, antivirus software won't detect it at all, and it will quickly spread across the internal network, infiltrating every corner of the system...

Xiao Ran did indeed successfully infiltrate the area and unearthed a great deal of "dirt," totaling 40 terabytes!

But all of these videos were filmed recently...

The earliest time span is only three months!

The Xu Family Song and Dance Troupe was founded by Qiao Jingshu herself; it's been around for a damn long time...

Where are the earlier "dirt" hidden?

It seems their system has a "self-deletion" mode, just like a dashcam; after a certain period of time, when the storage capacity becomes too large, it will automatically delete files...

However, this is clearly not in line with the "humanity" of these beasts!

Therefore, Xiao Ran believes that Qiao Jingshu must have transferred and stored those "old" black materials again when the hard drive was almost full!

Currently, the only content I can watch is from the last three months...

Although it's only for three months, 40TB is still a massive amount of data, and Xiao Ran is downloading it bit by bit...

She wanted to invite me to her place that evening so we could watch something together...

In addition, Xiao Ran gave me a suggestion!

She found a list of many "eliminated" dancers in the troupe's system.

Some of them are disliked by customers because they are old and their looks have faded!

Some were retired due to injuries...

In a proper dance troupe, it's normal for dancers to get injured... For example, a ballet dancer might break a foot bone or twist their back!

But what kind of injuries the injured people in the Xu family song and dance troupe had is self-evident!

Therefore, Xiao Ran's opinion is to try to get information out of these wounded and extremely resentful "retired personnel"!

Perhaps we can learn some deeper inside stories and find out where those "old dirt" are hidden?

Especially some newly retired...

They have lost their jobs, are "severely injured," and have no new means of livelihood. This is the time when they desperately crave redemption!

Xiao Ran also sent me a list... The list is full of the latest actors who have retired due to injuries!

I spotted Yao Yao immediately! And I saw her phone number.

These actors are all using stage names!

They don't have their real names, but you can find them as long as you have their contact information...

My thoughts drifted back to a week ago, to the scene when Yao Yao cut off her own finger... I still feel lingering fear!

Xu Shaokun counting backwards... was enough to frighten Yao Yao into doing something so extreme!

This shows that Yao Yao understands the situation perfectly and is very clear about the secrets of the song and dance troupe...

If I can win Yao Yao over, it won't be difficult to dig up old dirt on her again!

......

Xu Meiyun stared out the window for a while, then turned around and, seeing me lost in thought, asked with concern, "Honey! Is something important happening again?"

"Ugh!"

I sighed softly, my eyes darting around, and asked, "You mean your dad? Does he know where the 'dirt' stored by the Xu family's dance troupe is? I didn't have a chance to ask him at the hospital!"

"husband......"

Xu Meiyun frowned and bit her lower lip: "My dad probably doesn't know... he's actually very cunning!"

"Oh? What do you mean?" I asked with a smile.

Xu Meiyun pondered for a moment and said, "Honey... do you think my dad isn't worried that one day Qiao Jingshu and her group will do something reckless and cause a major upheaval... won't he get struck by lightning himself?"

"hehe!"

I smiled faintly: "Your dad's a shrewd old fox; he definitely had a trick up his sleeve!"

"Yes!"

Xu Meiyun pondered for a moment and said, "The Xu Family Dance Troupe operates independently and is not a subsidiary of Hengdai Real Estate. The legal representative and chairman are all Qiao Jingshu and her daughter! My father is only responsible for negotiating projects outside, promoting cooperation with governments in various places, and acquiring land... Saying that they each have their own responsibilities is not entirely accurate... The money raised by the dance troupe does not go into the Xu family's accounts. Its only effect is... to give my father the green light when he applies for loans! But as for how that green light is given, my father doesn't ask any questions!"

"wipe!"

I said with a wry smile, "Your dad is really cunning!"

"Yes!"

Hsu Mei-yun said, "It's like ordinary people going to get things done. Whether you give gifts or not, will the outcome be the same? Whether you have connections or not... it's all different. However... in principle, no one should be made things difficult. But principle is principle, and reality is reality!"

"so......"

I said meaningfully, "Your dad is basically 'pretending to be ignorant,' he just encounters kind and understanding 'good people' along the way! As for how these 'good people' became good people, he doesn't need to care..."

"Yes! That's exactly it!"

Xu Meiyun laughed and said, "Ignorance is no excuse! You can't just say that I went to the bank for a loan and they processed it smoothly, and then accuse me of having an affair with the bank manager, right? That wouldn't be appropriate!"

"Of course!"

I laughed and said, "So, your dad is also 'playing dumb' when it comes to Qiao Jingshu's gang, avoiding trouble whenever possible and completely giving up his right to know. This also shows... his decades-long relationship with Qiao Jingshu shows that the two of them have worked together quite well!"

"husband......"

Xu Meiyun took my arm and murmured, "This is called logically avoiding risk! I dare say... what Qiao Jingshu and the others did deserves to be executed ten times over! There are at least eighty, if not a hundred, people who want to kill them, who have been caught red-handed! They're bound to be punished sooner or later... Let's think about it! If the dance troupe goes bankrupt, and the higher-ups want to punish the Xu family... there's not much of a reasonable excuse for that, is there?"

She paused, then continued, "The dance troupe doesn't belong to Hengdai Real Estate... My dad and Qiao Jingshu aren't married! My dad isn't involved in the operation of Qiao Jingshu's dance troupe, and he's completely unaware of the ins and outs. You can't say he 'gained his wealth' just because he got a loan easily, can you?"

"hehe!"

I gave a faint, bitter smile and said, "Now... the truth is out! Xu Shaokun, Xu Meiwen, Xu Meiling... none of them are your father's children. This clears up even the blood relation, and the descendants are all safe! In that sense... your father has actually benefited from this misfortune!"

"puff!"

Xu Meiyun gave a bitter smile: "Sigh! My dad only cares about eating, he doesn't care how the food is made or who made it... That's his cunning, so... how could he possibly know where those dirty secrets are hidden? Actually, I had the same idea years ago, only keeping the Xu family shares and starting my own business early on..."

"Honey... uh, I might have to go out again tonight..." I asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Going to the Xiao family? To see the Xiao sisters...?" Xu Meiyun asked calmly.

"Uh... it's like this, honey!"

I awkwardly explained, "Xiao Ran is digging into the dance troupe's dirty secrets and has already uncovered some evidence, but... it's all from the last few months. The old stuff... it's all been hidden. What I mean is..."

"Honey! You don't need to explain, I understand!"

Xu Meiyun took my arm affectionately, her face full of worry as she said, "In principle, I don't object to you going about your business... but these are extraordinary times. Zhao Fuhai and his gang... they're not just after the three of us sisters, they want to kill you too!"

"You don't need to worry about that..."

I gripped her hand tightly: "This matter... Second Sister will also be involved! When I get back, I'll report to her first and discuss it. Anyway... Honey, you three sisters should stay at the Song family's house for now. Only when you're safe and I have no worries can I fully focus on these things..."

"husband!"

Xu Meiyun, filled with worry, burst into tears again. She gently stroked her lower abdomen and murmured emotionally, "I might end up like my sister... Husband, no matter what, you must ensure your safety. Never be reckless or take any risks... If anything happens to you, I won't live alone!"

"Tsk! Don't say such unlucky things!"

I frowned and said, "If you say that again, I'm ignoring you!"

......

On the way back to the Song family home, Xu Meiyun and I were in the same car, with Hongman driving, so my husband and I could have a close conversation.

Song Huayang was sitting alone in a car... Xiao Ran's report on this situation definitely needed to be reported to her as soon as possible!

When the car returned to the Goddess Peak villa complex, before even entering the mountain gate, a call came in from an unknown number!

I frowned and hesitated for a moment, but still answered the phone.

"Feed? Who are you?"

"Giggle!"

A pleasant girl's laughter came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, Young Master Song! This is Zhao Xue!"
