Xu Ming also learned that the boy he had saved was actually a rich second-generation.

Yunxi had not told Xu Ming that she was from one of the eight great families in Kyoto.

Yunxi tried many times to help Xu Ming so that he could stop working and focus on his studies.

However, Xu Ming refused them all. He felt that money should not be involved between friends. Once it was, their relationship would be tainted, and it would destroy their pure friendship.

Xu Ming even had a secret thought: he didn't want Yunxi to look down on him, and he hoped that one day he could stand by Yunxi's side based on his own abilities.

So he devoted all his time to studying, spending almost all his time in the school library except for classes, and he was always the last one to leave. When he left, he would even help clean up the library. Then he would leave school to go to work.

Then all of this was observed by the librarian, and a month later, when he had finished reading the books and cleaning up and was about to leave, the librarian stopped him.

They asked him if he would be willing to work at the library. His job would be to clean the library every day, and when no one was around, to organize the books that had been mixed up.

And it's paid.

It's like a pie falling from the sky.

And so, Xu Ming finally ended his life of working away from home, and not only was he able to read books, but he also had a stable job.

Until Yunxi was kidnapped.

Xu Ming had limited abilities, and he only regretted that he didn't have money back then.

After some time, Yunxi returned on her own.

But the person has clearly changed.

From then on, Xu Ming went on a money-making spree. He found a shortcut to making money: boosting game accounts for others.

Although boosting is tiring, it's a quick way to make money.

During high school, he got a part-time job at a game company thanks to the hand speed he honed by playing game boosting services.

Seven years later, he became the game director of another well-known game company.

He also has a girlfriend whose family background is a good match for his.

He was just 24 years old at the time.

He felt that his current status was finally worthy of Yunxi.

Unexpectedly, a traitor emerged from the Yunxi family. This traitor colluded with his father's rival company to frame him, leaving the company burdened with huge debts overnight. When his father went out to relieve stress, his car overturned off a bridge. By the time they found him, it was already the next day, and his body was bloated and pale from being soaked in water. When his grandfather learned of his son's death, he fainted on the spot. When he woke up, he suffered a stroke. As the company was left unmanaged, the once thriving family business was ultimately seized by the other side.

After enduring numerous blows, Yunxi, despite her grief, completed her father's funeral and then suddenly disappeared.

Xu Ming searched everywhere but couldn't find him. His phone was off, and he was nowhere to be found in the places they had been before.

A month later, just when Xu Ming was about to call the police, he finally returned.

He wanted to find him to make a comeback together.

But he didn't tell Xu Ming what he was going to do. And Xu Ming didn't ask either; he was already prepared. Even if it was delivering food or selling newspapers, he would stay with his brother.

Xu Ming resigned from his job as game director because of this. His girlfriend gave him the choice, and if he insisted on resigning, they would break up.

The couple, who had been together for over a year, eventually broke up.

My girlfriend left crying. At that moment, I really wanted to go up to her, take her hand, and tell her not to leave.

But for the sake of his brother, he hardened his heart and did not step forward.

His parents didn't understand why he quit his job. His girlfriend broke up with him. In the end, he left all his savings to his parents before leaving.

When Xu Ming, carrying only a suitcase, found Yunxi, Yunxi led him to the Shuixie Lanting pavilion that had already been rented. He couldn't believe it; he had been prepared to start over with nothing, but his brother had given him such a big surprise.

He also knew that Yunxi had truly met a benefactor this time.

With the help of Yunxi's funds and Xu Ming's connections, the two brothers partnered up and spent a year buying the Shuixie Lanting property. They then spent another six months turning Shuixie Lanting into one of the top restaurants in Kyoto.

At that time, Yunxi specially made a blue card. That blue card was made from a special mineral. The raw material of that mineral alone cost hundreds of thousands, not to mention the material of the card itself. The price of that one card was actually 1 million.

When the card was finished, Yunxi said he would give it to her. She deserved the best.

He also strictly ordered his subordinates that if anyone came to eat with a blue card with a special pattern, they must inform him.

No matter what you do then, you absolutely must tell him.

He also showed everyone a picture of the pattern, just in case they mistook it for something else. This picture is shown at their restaurant's morning meeting every day.

It was half an hour later when Yunxi finally managed to tidy herself up.

He quickly went downstairs to the reserved private room.

I wanted to knock on the door but I was a little nervous.

It has been more than a year since I last saw Suya.

Yunxi stood outside the door, too afraid to go in.

Just then, a waiter brought out the food.

Taking this opportunity, Yunxi carried the plate and knocked on the door to go inside.

When he went inside, he found that the person he wanted to see was not there.

There were two men and one woman inside, who looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Excuse me, do you have another customer? Where did she go?"

You mean Sister Ya?

"Yes, her name is Su Ya."

"Oh, Sister Ya has gone back."

The girl's words struck Yunxi like a thunderbolt, leaving him dizzy. He had prepared for so long and made so many preparations to see Su Ya, but she had simply left.

"Do you know why she did it?" Yunxi asked, unwilling to give up.

"It seems like he received a call from home and left in a hurry."

Only then did the girl realize something was wrong. Why was this person constantly asking about Sister Ya? Did he have some bad intentions? Could it be that he was attracted to Sister Ya's beauty? It has to be said that Bai Xiao's imagination was really running wild.

"Why don't you just ask Sister Ya yourself? Don't you have her phone number?"

"Yes, please enjoy your meal."

The girl ignored him.

She was talking to the two boys next to her. "As expected of the Water Pavilion, the food here is absolutely amazing. I've never eaten anything so delicious before."

Meanwhile, Lu Yichen, who was pretending to drink tea, heard their entire conversation without missing a single word.

"This guy should know Sister Ya. He can just walk into other people's private rooms, so he seems to have connections with Shui Xie Lan Ting. So he came to see Sister Ya, meaning they knew each other before?"

I have to say Lu Yichen was right.
