King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

Everyone was startled and turned to look at the doorway!

The person who barged in was Xu Shaokun. His face was filled with horror and extreme fear, and his jaw was trembling...

"Dad! Something terrible has happened! Someone wants to kill Lanlan!"

He yelled, "A bomb was found under Lanlan's car!"

"Oh dear!"

Grandpa Xu stamped his feet anxiously, looking very agitated: "I've already had your fourth sister investigate, and look what you've done... who have you offended this time?"

"Who can I possibly offend?"

Xu Shaokun looked innocent and miserable: "I'm just going to work honestly! Dad, what do you mean by that? What do you mean I've offended someone again?"

To be honest, in terms of acting skills alone... Xu Shaokun's "thief crying 'stop thief'" performance is definitely worthy of an "Actor" award. His emotions are genuine and his expressions are spot-on!

Upon seeing Song Guolong, he approached with a distressed expression, like a schoolboy who had made a mistake: "Uncle Song, you're here too... This was so sudden, it's our fault for not doing a good job with security! But don't worry! We've already called the police, and they'll definitely find out who did it! We promise! We promise it won't happen again!"

Song Guolong maintained his indifferent and sinister expression, his eyes like two needles that could pierce the heart... His imposing presence made Xu Shaokun dare not raise his face to meet his gaze.

"Shao Kun!"

Song Guolong said meaningfully, "Do you think... just because Lanlan gave birth to a girl, you can neglect her?"

"Uh...no, no, no!"

Xu Shaokun waved his hands repeatedly: "I didn't mean that! I've never been sexist, Uncle Song, I, I..."

"Do you think that because I'm usually quite busy and don't pay much attention to Lanlan, you can disregard her?"

"No, no!"

Xu Shaokun was terrified, his calves trembling slightly: "Uncle Song, I've never taken Lanlan lightly, it's just... people these days are so wicked! So despicable! They wouldn't dare to come at me directly, to target Lanlan. I... I'd rather that bomb was planted under my car..."

"Brother Long..."

Xu Jiayi, standing nearby, kept trying to smooth things over for his son: "Shao Kun didn't treat Lanlan badly. Shao Kun has always respected Lanlan..."

Song Guolong didn't speak, but stared at Xu Shaokun with a cold and intimidating expression, which made Xu Shaokun lower his head and shrink his shoulders...

The behavior of the Xu family father and son gave me a new understanding of Song Guolong.

Previously, people only knew him as a wealthy and powerful tycoon.

But seeing that even a madman like Xu Shaokun could be so scared... suggests there must be more to this than meets the eye.

"Uncle Song..."

I turned to Song Guolong and said sincerely, "I have a suggestion, but I'm not sure if I should say it?"

"hehe!"

Song Guolong smiled faintly: "If you have any ideas, just say them. I'm a person who values ​​democracy the most!"

"Um!"

I nodded and pondered for a moment, then said, "Since... the current security measures have loopholes, how about we completely overhaul the security system for your goddaughter, Lanlan?"

"hehe!"

Song Guolong glanced at me with a sly look in his eyes: "Great idea! I'll say it again, the key is still the human factor! So... Assistant Song, Lanlan's security will be entirely in your hands from now on!"

Upon hearing this, my heart skipped a beat!

The original plan was to have Song Guolong personally take charge of Lin Lan's safety!

If she's safe, then Duoduo is safe too, and Xiaojuan is safe as well.

As a result, Song Guolong directly put me in charge of Lin Lan's security. How could I possibly handle that? I'm nobody in the Xu family...

"Old Xu!"

Song Guolong pondered for a moment and said, "You heard what I said... From now on, Lanlan's travel, daily life, and security will all be handled by Xiao Song. You must cooperate fully!"

"Okay, okay! Definitely!" Hsu Chia-yi nodded repeatedly.

Song Guolong paused and continued, "If you don't cooperate actively and allow Lanlan, or rather, Xiao Song, to suffer any harm... then I'll withdraw all my investment! And not just in this agricultural project."

"No, no!"

Xu Jiayi panicked instantly and waved his hands repeatedly: "Brother Long, don't worry! Even if something happens to me, I won't let Lanlan and Xiao Song get hurt."

Song Guolong's attitude has left me somewhat puzzled...

He knew that I was Lin Lan's ex-boyfriend.

I originally thought that saying a few kind words for me would be some kind of consolation...

Now he's making me responsible for Lin Lan's travel and daily life. What does he mean by that?

Aren't you worried that Lin Lan and I might rekindle our old flame?

Or is it that he's actually planning to dump Lin Lan? Is he laying the groundwork for giving Lin Lan back to me?

"Uncle Song, don't worry!"

Xu Meijuan said earnestly, "Xiao Song and I will be in charge of Lanlan's security together!"

"Um!"

Song Guolong smiled and nodded: "With Meijuan saying that, I feel much more at ease. Alright! It's getting late, I should go."

"Hey! Brother Long!"

Xu Jiayi, with a fawning and obsequious expression, said, "It's already 12:30 pm, why don't you have a meal here..."

"Alright, alright!"

Song Guolong waved his hand: "With such poor security at the Xu family's place, what if there's a bomb under the table?"

In short, Xu Jiayi was speechless.

Song Guolong stood up, and everyone else, like stars surrounding a moon, respectfully saw him off as he left the office... all the way downstairs.

Xu Jiayi only breathed a long sigh of relief after Song Guolong's Hongqi L5 slowly drove away.

Xu Shaokun frowned deeply, his eyes narrowing slightly in a sinister direction as he glanced at the direction Song Guolong had gone...

I stood close behind Xu Meijuan, knowing that things would be tough from now on, but at least... with Song Guolong's threat to withdraw his investment, Xu Shaokun probably wouldn't make a move against me for the time being.

"Xiao Juan, I'm entrusting Lin Lan to you from now on. Make sure nothing like this happens again..."

Xu Jiayi looked at Xu Meijuan with annoyance and said.

"Dad! Don't worry, I'll take care of Lin Lan..."

"Big sister, I won't be taking care of your sister-in-law from now on, so you'd better protect her!" Xu Shaokun said with a mischievous grin.

"Hmph! Xu Shaokun!"

Xu Meijuan glared at him coldly and said, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You'd better watch yourself!"

"Oh dear, what's wrong with me now?"

"Alright!"

Xu Jiayi stomped his foot in anger and turned to leave.

Xu Shaokun patted my shoulder with a grin and said, "Song Cheng, you should give your older sister some advice. Women who get angry all the time age faster!"

"Get out of here!"

"Okay, okay! I'll get out, I'll get out! Mr. Xu, please don't be angry, hehe!"

......

This family doesn't even bother to pretend in front of me anymore.

After the father and son left, Xu Meijuan stood with her arms crossed, still staring angrily at their retreating figures...

"Meijuan?"

"cough!"

Xu Meijuan sighed, turned her face away, and forced a hint of tenderness onto her worried and troubled expression: "Forget it, let Meitong handle the client's affairs. Honey, I'll go to Sun Fangfang's house with you."

"Want to go together?"

"Um!"

Xu Meijuan nodded: "I've thought it over repeatedly. Since we both love you, there are some things that two women... should say to each other face to face."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

Let's go!

......

After getting out of the underground parking garage, we got into Xu Meijuan's car, told her where Teacher Sun lived, and then slowly drove away from the company.

"Meijuan, that bomb must have been planted by Xu Shaokun'an!"

I frowned and said worriedly, "There's an old saying that goes, 'It's not the thief you should be afraid of, it's the one who's eyeing you...' Boss Song was just saying it casually, but I'm worried..."

"Ugh!"

Xu Meijuan sighed: "My subordinates just sent me a message saying that this was my mistake! I only instructed them to keep a 100% watchful eye on Xiaojuan's safety, but I didn't tell Duoduo and Lin Lan. After all... I only just found out that Duoduo is your daughter."

She paused, then continued, "Lin Lan wasn't driving her usual Maybach today, but a Beetle. Xiao Juan didn't go out either, so the staff overlooked it... But don't worry, I won't give Xu Shaokun another chance!"

The mention of the Beetle reminds me of the scene several years ago when Lin Lan and I were "drawing up our future" in our rented apartment!

She said her favorite car was the Beetle, and I said... I'll buy her one when we get married.

Looking back now, it really feels like a dream...

"Meijuan, what do you want to talk to Teacher Sun about?" I asked tentatively.

"Hehe? Why are you so curious?"

Xu Meijuan smiled and said, "Of course, we need to soothe her emotions first. After all... I did something wrong to her, and I guess Sun Fangfang hates me too, right?"

"Oh, no, Meijuan, you're actually a really nice person..."

I comforted her, saying, "Teacher Sun doesn't have any negative thoughts about you."

"Hehe, by the way!"

Xu Meijuan said, "After the agricultural project starts, you need to cooperate more with Meitong. My younger sister has just taken over this agricultural area, and you two are both newcomers, so you need to work closely together!"

"You can rest assured about that!"

I said earnestly, "I will do a good job as her assistant..."

Xu Meijuan gave me a charming and sly look, and said with a wicked smile, "Meitong, among us sisters, is the prettiest, and she has never been in a relationship. She is as clean as a blank sheet of paper... an absolute virgin."

"Uh...uh..."

I didn't understand what Xu Meijuan meant by telling me all this, so I didn't continue the conversation.

A dozen minutes later, the car slowly drove into Teacher Sun's residential area...

Just as we were about to arrive at Building No. 3 where Teacher Sun lived, a familiar figure suddenly stood in front of the building entrance.

It was Gao Kai!

Holy crap! How did this guy find my house?

What's he trying to do? Still not giving up?

"Son of a bitch!"

Xu Meijuan's hands trembled with anger as she gripped the steering wheel, and she honked the horn twice!

The loud car horn caught Gao Kai's attention, and he immediately turned to look at us.

"Meijuan!"

I grabbed her hand and said, "Don't be impulsive! Let me go talk to him first. He wants to cooperate, right? Let's hear what he wants to cooperate on first."
