King of Capital: From Unemployment to the Pinnacle of Life

To help a "mother's killer" alleviate his pain... while bearing the risk of being questioned and having his plans thwarted!

It's not that I'm so morally superior that I don't hold grudges!

But what I want to find out is exactly what happened back then.

Although my mother was adamant that Yin Mei was the murderer of my biological mother... the law requires evidence!

If you want to put Yin Mei on trial, sweet talk alone won't do the trick!

Only by gaining Yin Mei's full trust could I have the opportunity to follow the clues and find out the truth!

Under my "Three Yangs Opening Yin" meridian massage, Yin Mei's pain was significantly relieved; her body stopped convulsing, and even her breathing became much calmer...

"Xiao Cheng..."

Yin Mei weakly stammered, "Thank you! I never expected you to be such a miracle doctor..."

"Well......"

I feigned composure and said, "I wouldn't call myself a miracle doctor... This is an ancestral bone healing technique, passed down through our Song family. My grandfather taught it to my father, and my father taught it to me..."

The advantage of making up this lie is that even if Yin Mei later finds out what I studied in school, she won't have any other thoughts!

"Oh...that's wonderful!"

After letting out a long breath, Yin Mei gasped, "Unlike injections, after injections before... it didn't hurt anymore, but my whole back and chest felt numb, and I couldn't feel anything at all. Sometimes it was hard to even breathe... But this is different. This one... it just doesn't hurt anymore, but there's no numbness."

"aunt!"

I said earnestly, "The fact that you're feeling pain means your meridians aren't completely severed. With long-term physical therapy and active rehabilitation training, you have a real chance to stand up again!"

"Are you... are you telling the truth?"

Yin Mei stared at me in shock, her eyelashes trembling, and grabbed my hand: "Xiao Cheng! Can I really still stand up?"

"Well......!"

I frowned and thought for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Auntie! You can definitely do it! I have absolute confidence in our success!"

Actually, I'm not 100% sure that she will be able to stand up again in the future!

But I have to give her hope!

Because my ultimate goal is not whether she can stand up... but to find out the truth about my birth mother's car accident and obtain evidence from her!

"Xiao Cheng, don't call me 'Auntie'!"

Yin Mei gripped my hand tightly, tears streaming down her face. "Call me Mom! If you don't mind... can I be your godmother?"

"Uh... okay!"

I frowned and nodded... then whispered, "Mom!"

"Eh!"

Yin Mei choked with emotion and said, "My good child, Mom will treat you as her own!"

Song Huazhao was also moved to tears, echoing Yin Mei's words: "Mom! The character 'Song' can't be written with just one stroke of the pen. Little Song is originally a member of our Song family, we were one family 500 years ago! It's only natural and reasonable for you to take him in as your son! It's God's arrangement!"

Although calling Yin Mei "Mom" feels very awkward to me personally, and I feel extremely sorry for my birth mother.

But there's a self-consistent logic that allows me to "deceive myself": no matter how much I hate her, I can't deny that, from a traditional ethical standpoint, she's my legal mother! She's my father's first wife...

"Well said!"

Yin Mei was indeed no longer in pain. She raised her arm and let Song Huazhao help her sit up. She took a long, deep breath and said, "Every time after my injection, what I fear most is the numbness in my chest and not being able to breathe... This time, I don't feel that at all, and my breathing seems even smoother!"

"Cheng'er!"

Yin Mei looked at me with emotion, her voice slightly choked as she said, "You are truly a treasure bestowed upon me by God!"

"Uh... Mom!"

I explained with a slightly awkward expression, "Your breathing is smoother because your energy channels are open... This principle is similar to how Yu the Great controlled the floods... Before Yu, his father Gun tried to block the accumulated water. On the surface, the floods were gone, but when the dikes collapsed, the disaster was even greater. When Yu took over the flood control, he dredged the waterways, and the floods naturally disappeared..."

"Listen to this! Listen to this!"

Yin Mei excitedly patted Song Huazhao's hand and said, "Cheng'er spoke so well! Our ancestors' methods are truly the best!"

"Yes, Mom!"

Song Huazhao said with great enthusiasm, "Giving that kind of nerve-blocking injection is like plugging a sludge blockage, and Xiao Cheng used the method of Yu the Great..."

The mother and daughter beamed with joy, while Dr. Zhang, standing nearby, looked utterly embarrassed and awkward...

"Madam..."

Dr. Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "It's undeniable that traditional Chinese medicine does have some therapeutic effects, but the side effects are unclear... Your symptoms have been examined by top experts from various countries, including academic leaders. Nerve blocking injections are currently the conservative treatment with the fewest side effects. Furthermore... we must trust science and experimental data... In the near future, implanting electrode chips into your nerves is the only possibility that will allow you to stand up again! Don't be too superstitious about folk remedies and ancestral techniques; these methods may cause unpredictable harm!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Mei's expression changed drastically. She looked down at her legs in horror, and her body began to tremble again...

"Mom, what's wrong?" Song Huazhao asked anxiously.

"Just now... just now!"

Yin Mei, her eyes wide with disbelief, clutched her knee: "My leg... I can feel it again, like it's wrapped in a thick layer of cotton..."

"Mom! Is it true?" Song Huazhao burst into tears again.

"Um!"

Yin Mei said excitedly, "It's true! It's gone again now, just for a few seconds, and I felt... my leg was mine again..."

"mom!"

I explained, "This is because your meridians are not completely severed. With careful conditioning, the sensation in your legs can be gradually restored. This is the first step... The second step is to gradually reconnect the meridians with the motor nerves."

"snort!"

Dr. Zhang scoffed, "Nonsense!"

"Dr. Zhang!"

I looked at him calmly and said, "It's undeniable that many of the things you said are correct, and I don't mean to reject Western medicine, but... much of your knowledge comes from books, from what others have taught you... rather than from your own practical experience in nature... Leonardo da Vinci, the founder of Western anatomy, once famously said, 'If you only learn from textbooks and don't understand nature, then believe me, you are wasting your time!'"

"you!"

Dr. Zhang was so angry with me that his face turned red!

Yin Mei smiled and tried to smooth things over, saying, "Dr. Zhang, please don't take it to heart with my son. He's still young... and doesn't understand. Thank you for your hard work!"

Damn, a lady of high society is a lady of high society, possessing both wisdom and refinement. That's a truly impeccable statement!

This both gave Dr. Zhang face and made it clear that they were protecting their son: This is my son! You should stop now!

Furthermore, it was also a polite suggestion that Dr. Zhang should go and rest first...

Dr. Zhang left the room looking dejected, while Yin Mei held my hand tightly, looking at me with loving eyes and saying, "Cheng'er, where are your parents now?"

"Well......"

I swallowed awkwardly, "They're in their hometown county."

"Oh... bring your parents over! I'd like to meet them... and thank them in person!"

Yin Mei sighed sincerely, "Alas! I have difficulty walking, otherwise I would definitely visit you in person..."

"Well......"

I said awkwardly, "Mom! There's no rush, let's talk about it later. They're busy with the autumn harvest..."

"Okay, okay!"

Yin Mei held my hand tightly and said, "Cheng'er! Don't go back. Stay here with Mom. Mom can't leave you for a moment! What if... Mom gets sick again and you're not by my side? What will I do then? Mom doesn't want to have any more injections..."

Yin Mei's request completely baffled me!

What does that mean?

They can't leave me for even a moment, and now they're clinging to me?

"Xiao Zhao!"

Yin Mei said, "Have someone set up Qinglong Residence for your younger brother, and Xiao Cheng will live there from now on."

"Okay, Mom!"

Song Huazhao laughed and said, "Mom, you're so biased! That Qinglong Residence villa is Dad's favorite villa! I wanted to live there before, but you wouldn't let me..."

"Giggle..."

Yin Mei smiled and said, "I said I would treat Xiao Cheng as my own son... and I'm not just saying it. He's the youngest, so naturally I have to love him even more..."

"Uh, Mom!"

I said awkwardly, "It's like this, Meiyun and I are getting married soon, and... I have a house outside, so I feel it would be a bit inconvenient to move in now."

Upon hearing this, a sharp glint of displeasure flashed in Yin Mei's originally kind eyes, but it was quickly concealed. She smiled and said, "That doesn't matter. This is your home, and Xu Meiyun's home is Xu Meiyun's home... How can my son live in his wife's house? Wouldn't that be like a son-in-law living with his wife's family?"

She paused, then gripped my hand tightly and continued, "Besides... son! Once you call me 'Mom,' our mother-son bond is sealed for life! You are my son! Not just any girl can be worthy of you! As your mother, I also need to vet her and see if that Xu family girl is truly worthy of being our Song family's daughter-in-law!"
