King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

"What did I say?"

Xu Meijuan smiled faintly and called out to the door, "Tell her to wait for me downstairs for a while..."

After saying that, she tidied her hair and put on her pajamas.

"It's almost midnight, why is she back again?" I frowned and flicked my cigarette ash.

"Hmph! It's itchy, isn't it!"

Xu Meijuan rolled her eyes coquettishly.

"Big sister!"

The sound of Xu Meiyun's high heels coming up the stairs came from outside the door. Xu Meijuan also quickly came out of the bedroom and closed the door behind her.

"Big sister, is Assistant Song still with you?" Xu Meiyun asked anxiously.

"Heh! What are you saying... It's so late, why would someone want to stay here?"

"Oh, oh... Sister, please explain to Assistant Song that Xiao Bo is a complete idiot! He can't tell right from wrong... Tell Assistant Song not to take it to heart and not to stoop to his level..."

"Alright, alright! I'll talk to Xiao Song about it tomorrow."

"Oh dear! What a mess today! So embarrassing! Sister, please calm down..."

"Hehe, I'm not angry! Where's Xiao Xiao?"

"I had it sent back..."

......

The two sisters chatted quietly outside the door.

The general idea is that Xu Meiyun felt ashamed and took the initiative to apologize in order to mitigate the negative impact.

Although she felt bad for upsetting her older sister, that's understandable.

But it also allowed me to taste something different...

What kind of person apologizes after their partner gets hit? They think that taking the loss is the best course of action!

"Alright, alright! Meiyun! If you're really worried, just talk to Assistant Song yourself tomorrow. Anyway, I've granted him three days off, so he has time."

"Okay, I'll look for him tomorrow!"

......

The two sisters chatted for a while longer at the door before Xu Meiyun left.

After seeing her sister off, Xu Meijuan returned to the bedroom, happily ran to the bed, and hugged me tightly!

"Giggle giggle!"

Xu Meijuan beamed, "Honey, see? I wasn't wrong, was I? Meiyun apologized on her own initiative! If she still had feelings for Xiao Bo... would she have come to apologize?"

"Oh!"

I shook my head with a wry smile: "Not necessarily! Perhaps Xu Meiyun is just reasonable, doesn't side with her own people, and has a broad perspective..."

Although I said that, I had to admit that Xu Meijuan was right.

"Giggle giggle!"

Xu Meijuan laughed and said, "Forget it! Her? She's reasonable? She has a broad perspective? Husband! You... you only have two children, a brother and sister, you definitely don't understand the perspective of a family with three children..."

"Oh? What's wrong with having three children?" I said with a smile, putting my arm around Xu Meijuan's shoulder.

"Giggle giggle!"

Xu Meijuan laughed and said, "In a family with three children, all of the same gender, the eldest and the youngest will definitely gang up on the second child..."

"Really?"

"Hahaha!"

Xu Meijuan laughed and said, "You'll understand when you have more children... There's a saying among ordinary people: the eldest is spoiled, the third is pampered, and the second is the unlucky one who suffers! The eldest has status, the third is the most loved, and only the second... is caught in the middle and suffers! So, from childhood to adulthood, Meiyun has always been fighting with me, always wanting to take everything from me..."

"Oh, oh, oh...that makes sense!" I nodded.

"Um!"

Xu Meijuan nodded with a wicked grin: "You think Meiyun didn't know you were in the room? Do you think I can't see through her little scheme? She actually apologized to me? Pshaw! She's just playing dumb!"

"What about Meitong?" I asked with a smile.

"well......!"

Xu Meijuan sighed softly, "My mother died when Meitong was three years old. My eldest sister is like a mother to me, and she listens to everything I say. I love her the most, so... she's definitely loyal to me, unlike Meiyun, who's so rebellious!"

As we were talking, my phone beeped. I picked it up and saw it was a WeChat friend request... The other person's name was "If Yun Knows," and the background picture was of a girl in a white dress lying in the grass, surrounded by blooming flowers and fluttering butterflies—very artistic. The note read: Hello! Assistant Song, I am Xu Meiyun.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

Xu Meijuan leaned closer, staring at the screen, and smacked her lips with a mischievous grin. "Stillness breeds restlessness, she can't hold back anymore! Honey... don't approve it yet, let her crave it, approve it tomorrow at noon... let's see what she's up to?"

"Um!"

I nodded, then remembered something else and said meaningfully, "Meijuan... Gao Kai said you're a germaphobe and need to shower twice a day, why don't you make the same request of me?"

As soon as I mentioned Gao Kai, Xu Meijuan frowned, a hint of displeasure and annoyance flashing across her face!

"He is him, and you are you! How can they be the same? I even kissed your fingers, so how could I find you dirty?"

Xu Meijuan hugged me tightly, her face showing grievance, and said, "Honey... when we're together, please don't always mention him, okay? It makes me feel dirty... unworthy to be with you. Although we grew up together, it was more like a brother-sister relationship, innocent and carefree. Everything was arranged by our families... Actually, I've never truly liked him, I've never felt any spark with him..."

Listening to Xu Meijuan's confession, I felt a pang of jealousy for Gao Kai once again... It's truly a case of "one man's meat is another man's poison."

Sometimes, for men, the most potent poison in the world is probably their wife's honest words!

"Honey, I want more..." Xu Meijuan said coquettishly, twisting her body.

"Tsk!"

I frowned at her and said in a scolding tone, "Xu Meijuan! Count how many times this has happened today? Can't you have a little self-control?"

"No! I want it! Honey, don't you like me being sexy? I want to be the sexiest one..."

"Tsk, I just can't do anything with you!"

"Hehe! My husband is so good! I love you, my husband!"

......

I didn't wake up until 1 p.m. the next day.

I slept for more than ten hours straight, feeling completely drained... I don't even know what time it was last night when we finished.

While I was smoking on the toilet after washing up, I accepted Xu Meiyun's friend request.

Just two or three seconds later, Xu Meiyun sent a message: Assistant Song, I'm so sorry about yesterday! Xiao Bo has a bad temper, please don't take it to heart!

I replied to her: It's okay!

Xu Meiyun's message came again soon: Assistant Song, do you have time today? Would you do me the honor of coming to my house for a visit? My house is not far from my eldest sister's house, it's in villa number 18.

When she mentioned Villa No. 18, I remembered it. I'd seen the gate number several times I'd visited the Jiangning villa area; it's right next to the main road of the complex, quite conspicuous, and a three-story European-style villa. Although it's quite grand, in terms of location, it's definitely not as superior as Xu Meijuan's house, which is nestled against the mountain and overlooks the water!

Not knowing how to reply, I ignored her. After going downstairs and eating the meal the housekeeper had prepared, I decided to go home and check on Teacher Sun first...

However, not far from Xu Meijuan's house, a woman's voice came from behind: Assistant Song!

I turned around and saw Xu Meiyun in the back seat of a Bentley, smiling and waving at me...

My heart skipped a beat. What did this mean? Was it some kind of "wait and see" scenario? Surely not?

The car slowly pulled up beside me, and the driver immediately got out, opened the other rear door, and bowed, gesturing for me to enter.

Unable to refuse their kind invitation, I had no choice but to get on the bus.

"Assistant Song... I'm so sorry!"

Xu Meiyun smiled at me with a face full of shame: "Yesterday, it was all Xiao Bo's fault!"

"Oh, it's nothing!" I lowered my head awkwardly, my gaze lingering on the air conditioning vents in the back.

"Assistant Song, I heard from my older sister that you're off today, so I'd like to invite you to my home for a cup of tea and a while. Please don't mind."

"Oh, no..."

I frowned, my mind racing... Now that things had come to this, I had no choice but to go along with it.

The driver returned to the driver's seat, and the car slowly drove towards Villa No. 18.

My dad once taught me: "Kid! Something fishy is bound to happen! When you think something is falling from the sky, you might be getting into danger!"

He even gave a specific example: the Vietnamese female soldiers on the battlefield back then... would start taking off their clothes as soon as they saw our soldiers. Our side was full of hot-blooded, innocent, and kind young men. They had never seen anything like this before, and they all covered their eyes, too afraid to look.

At this point, the other side starts firing their guns or throwing grenades!

Because of this bug, a lot of our people have died!

The wickedness of human nature lies in... knowing that you are kind, she still takes advantage of that to kill you!

I figured that if it was just for an apology, Xu Meiyun wouldn't have bothered to take the initiative to come forward... let alone wait for someone to come to her!

As for what Xu Meijuan said, that she was "itching" so badly, that her heart was filled with longing, and that she no longer loved Xiao Bo... I think that's pretty far-fetched!

They've been dating for over six months and are currently deeply in love!

How could you change your mind just because you talked to me yesterday?

A possibility came to mind: yesterday, at Xu Meijuan's home turf, Xu Meiyun was definitely powerless, but she could "lure me into a trap," using the guise of an apology to invite me to her place! Then she could vent her anger on Xiao Bo's behalf!

Thinking back to what Xu Meijuan said before, she didn't dare to say anything bad about Xiao Bo in front of Xu Meiyun, otherwise Xu Meiyun would turn on her!

They've been dating for so long, how could they not know what kind of person Xiao Bo is? What's his temper like?

The reason they acted like pushovers in front of me, went to so much trouble to wait for me outside Xu Meijuan's house when I got up and left...

He was just suppressing his emotions... to trick me into going there so he could beat me up, while I was still here foolishly thinking good things!

The more I thought about it, the more uncertain I felt... Sure enough, as the car approached Villa No. 18, I saw Xiao Bo, who had been beaten up like a pig's head, standing at the gate of Villa No. 18, with four or five bodyguards standing at the gate.
