King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

"Meiyun, what brings you here?"

Xu Meijuan stood up, quickly walked to the door, pulled Xu Meiyun out, and closed the door behind her.

The sisters' voices could also be heard in the corridor.

"Big sister, you really have a lover? Hehehe! Dad told me, but I didn't believe him."

"How dare you talk like that? What lover?"

"Hehehe! He's quite handsome... I hope my brother-in-law didn't find out?"

"Shut up! Gao Kai and I are divorced. Where did this 'brother-in-law' come from?"

"Oh, right, right! Big sister has a husband now."

"Go to hell!"

......

The sisters' chatter faded into the distance, and Xu Meijuan pulled her younger sister aside for a "detailed talk."

I shook my head with a wry smile, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag...

The stimulation of nicotine makes my brain work much better!

To be fair, Hsu Mei-chuan's insight into human nature is quite sharp!

My mentor, Professor Zhao Huiping, once told me, after getting drunk in his hometown in Northeast China: "Those unpatriotic women, are they naive? Are they lacking in education? Absolutely not! They understand everything! They just lack a good man! If they date a decent man and sleep with him twice, their stance will immediately become unequivocally righteous! Their banner will be unequivocally clear!"

In fact, the reverse is also true!

I didn't understand it then, but now Xu Meijuan has broken down this principle into its simplest form and fed it to me "mouth to mouth," and I finally understand it completely!

Therefore, the "struggle situation" faced by the three Xu sisters is indeed very serious!

Meiyun and Meitong have both gotten married... They each have their own families, and they will definitely prioritize the position and interests of their husbands' families!

Xu Jiayi tries to win over his two sons-in-law... Xu Meijuan will be no match for her father!

I can even imagine that Mei-Yun and Mei-Tong's husbands must have been "handpicked" by Hsu Chia-Yi!

At that time, one can imagine what Xu Meijuan's situation would be like!

Mei-yun and Mei-tong will most likely, under the combined influence of their father's and husband's opinions, gradually turn against their eldest sister!

By then... Xu Meijuan, the so-called "CEO" with a 15% stake, will have become a joke!

What's worse, my "backer" is gone too. Wouldn't that mean utter ruin?

For a moment, my mind was in complete turmoil!

Could it be that Meijuan's statement, "I can save them," means...?

Just as I was about to light another cigarette to clear my head, Xu Meijuan pushed open the door and came in!

But her face was full of sorrow, and she seemed to be preoccupied with something...

"Meijuan... what's wrong?"

I frowned and asked awkwardly, "Uh... was that Meiyun just now?"

"Um!"

Xu Meijuan sighed with a wry smile: "That's right! She is Meiyun..."

"Uh...is she married?" I asked curiously.

"Oh!"

Xu Meijuan shook her head and smiled wryly again: "Not yet, but it'll be soon... She's already the girlfriend of Young Master Xiao from Juneng Technology Group..."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

I nodded meaningfully: "This Young Master Xiao... uh, I mean, wasn't it also your father who arranged this match?"

A sly glint flashed in Xu Meijuan's eyes as she sneered, "That's right... This Xiao Bo, he's been following my dad around like a shadow these days, attending all sorts of banquets and parties. He's already a capable 'prospective son-in-law'..."

"What's his character like?" I asked curiously.

"Character? Ha!"

Xu Meijuan sneered, "He's Xu Shaokun's best friend, what kind of person do you think he is?"

In short, I'm speechless!

Fish seek fish, shrimp seek shrimp, turtles seek turtles... What kind of good person would be able to be on friendly terms with Xu Shaokun?

"So...Meiyun, are you willing to be his girlfriend?"

I frowned and sighed, "As the second young lady of the Xu family, she shouldn't be unaware of what kind of person Xu Shaokun is, right? 'One is influenced by one's company!'"

"hehe!"

Xu Meijuan sneered, "My second sister is the same age as Teacher Sun, and she's a bookworm too! She's the most educated among us sisters, going straight to a doctorate... She's never been in a relationship, and only just started dating Xiao Bo this year... Sigh!"

She sighed helplessly, "Girls, no matter how smart they are normally, once they're in love, they become like stupid bears, their IQ drops to zero, and they won't listen to anything you say... I don't even dare to say anything bad about Xiao Bo in front of her now... otherwise, she'll turn on me!"

"I see..."

My heart sank!

As expected... things are developing in the worst possible direction I predicted!

Women... regardless of age or education level...

If it's your first relationship and you're still deeply in love, you'll be extremely protective of your boyfriend!

Just like when Lin Lan and I were inseparable during my sophomore year, one of her best friends said bad things about me. In front of countless classmates at the restaurant, Lin Lan directly splashed a cup of milk tea on her face!

In particular, Xu Meiyun is the bookish type... girls like this are more likely to get deeply involved in relationships and become unable to extricate themselves!

"If Mei-yun and your father work together, then you sisters will be in danger! The Xu family will be in danger too, and Hengdai, this great ship... will be on a path of no return!" I sighed.

"Ha! That's right..."

Xu Meijuan shook her head helplessly: "After my dad got together with Qiao Jingshu, he started going astray. Qiao Jingshu used the dance troupe to hold people hostage and blackmail them... My dad was leveraging everywhere, swindling money from the country and shareholders. What they're doing... is purely drinking poison to quench their thirst! It's only a matter of time before it collapses! It's fortunate that I'm here to keep things in check, otherwise something would have happened long ago... When I lose my decision-making power, the entire Hengdai will be out of control... At that time, the empire that he and my mother built up over the years will probably be destroyed! After all... the country isn't stupid! It won't allow them to continue messing around like this..."

"yes!"

I sighed deeply: "Your Xu family... is a trillion-dollar corporation. If you were to collapse... countless families would suffer enormous losses! After all, the housing project is abandoned, the loans still need to be repaid... people will have nowhere to live and be burdened with a mountain of debt!"

"Honey... the fact that you could see this far shows you're a smart person!"

Xu Meijuan looked at me with eyes full of tender love, raised her hand to gently stroke my face, and murmured.

"You should tell your sister these things... I don't believe she's really that naive!" I said with a wry smile.

"It's no use!"

Xu Meijuan sighed again, her expression heavy with suppressed emotion: "I've explained all the reasons to her, broken them down into a million pieces, but she just won't listen... She's not young anymore, and all she wants is to get married as soon as possible!"

She paused, then continued, "Honey, you have no idea how disgusting the Xiao family is... That Qiao Jingshu, she used to be involved with Xiao Bo's father, Xiao Zhenjiang. She was his mistress and even had an abortion for him!"

"Really!"

I exclaimed in surprise, "Your dad really has no taste! He'll eat any rotten peach or apricot!"

"That's for sure!"

Xu Meijuan shook her head helplessly: "Xiao Zhenjiang's wife is hard to fool, but my mom is naive and easy to fool! That's the main reason!"

"Your mother just loves your father too much, so she trusts him..."

"Sigh! Let's not talk about these upsetting things... Honey!"

Xu Meijuan grabbed my hand and winked at me with a complicated expression: "Now that you've moved in, there will be less food rations for me... It's almost five o'clock, can you give me some this time? Otherwise, I don't know when I'll get another one?"

After saying that, she locked the attic door from the inside, then went to the dressing table, bent down and lay on it, turning her head to look at me pitifully, her wet eyes like a puppy's...

I understood and walked over, took a deep breath, and put my hands around her waist...

......

Half an hour later, the clouds dispersed and the rain stopped... Xu Meijuan and I came down from the attic. She looked radiant and had a healthy glow. She was chatting and laughing with everyone around her. I subconsciously wiped the sweat from my forehead.

Teacher Sun had just directed the young men to tidy up their belongings at home...

"Everyone did a great job today! Each person will receive a reward of 2000 yuan!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!"

"Thank you, Mr. President!"

......

"Giggle..."

Xu Meijuan, her complexion rosy and beaming with laughter, warmly embraced Teacher Sun: "My dear sister! From now on... you can stay here without worry. There are bodyguards all around. If you need anything, just tell the nanny, or call me directly..."

"oh......"

Teacher Sun nodded with a complicated expression, while looking at me with concern in her eyes.

It's obvious... the dramatic incident that just happened in the back hills has still affected her...

"Well... Xiao Song, I'll head back now. Call me if anything comes up!" Xu Meijuan gave me a sweet smile.

"Oh well!"

In front of Teacher Sun, she was too embarrassed to call me "husband" directly.

Teacher Sun lowered her head in self-consciousness.

Just then, a tall man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked in, his brows furrowed with anger and displeasure!

"Big sister! What do you mean?"

The man frowned and said, "Didn't the old man say this house was meant to be our wedding home?"
