Lei Xuan looked at the three of them and remained coldly silent.

He thought for a moment, then knocked on Shen Wangshu's door.

There was no response from inside. Lei, his face cold, said softly, "Shushu, come out and see the Dragon Knight!"

"I said..." The playboy's face had turned into a palette of colors. Seeing his younger brother not only failing to help him but also calling others over to watch, looking like he was joining in the fun, he felt deeply hurt. He was Lei Xuan's own brother, so of course he knew what this scoundrel of a brother was thinking.

Judging from this, it's likely that the younger brother couldn't resist and devoured his girlfriend completely, leaving nothing behind. Now he's been kicked out and has to sleep in the guest room. But now, in order to continue sleeping in Miss Sheng's soft bed, he's betraying his older brother.

If the second young lady of the Sheng family saw him like this, wouldn't she laugh herself to death?!

There was a moment of silence inside the door, then someone asked, "What dragon knight?"

"The dragon knight who will protect my little aunt, Princess!" The fat knight exclaimed excitedly.

A moment later, the door opened, and Shen Wangshu came out wearing a full nightgown.

She glanced at Lei Ze's miserable face, and her lips twitched.

"Once I get the Dragon Lance, I'll fly away with my aunt!" the fat knight shouted, his eyes shining.

He wiggled his little bottom, completely oblivious to the fact that his uncle had gotten so tanned.

"Don't ride on other people!" Lei Xuan cautiously hugged Shen Wangshu's soft body, while coldly looking at his playboy older brother whose legs were trembling, and said in a ruthless tone, "Your allowance will be halved."

"Wait!" Lei Ze was completely innocent. He wouldn't dare to be ridden by the second young lady of the Sheng family even if he had eight lives. He was innocently framed by his own son and felt so wronged that it was like snow in June. But then he saw his younger brother with a cold face and great anger carrying Shen Wangshu back to her room. After thinking about it, he cursed him under his breath for being treacherous.

This younger brother, under the guise of jealousy, tried to get the second young lady of the Sheng family to forget the bad things he had done before—how cunning! But he didn't dare to scratch at the young lady's door like his brother did, and dejectedly led his knight son and the frail princess back to the children's room.

I haven't told a story yet tonight.

He had planned to cling to his younger brother's leg and cry the next morning to try and get his allowance back, but instead, he was met only by his brother with a gloomy face.

There is a small sofa in Shen Wangshu's room. Boss Lei slept on the sofa last night.

He ran into trouble, and the other half of his allowance was also taken away, leaving him penniless.

The heartless brat had already run off to roll around in the dirt. Lei Ze sat sadly on the sofa, but then felt his leg being nudged.

He looked down and saw Gao Xi, who was usually introverted and gentle, smiling shyly at him, her two small hands tightly twisting a bright red banknote and handing it to him.

"For me?" Although he had been taking care of Gao Xi for several months, the timid child didn't talk to him much, and Lei Ze asked in disbelief.

The child nodded his head without hesitation, his delicate face blushing shyly.

Ode to Joy.

Razer's gaze softened, and he reached out to pat the boy's head.

"You're a good boy." If he had kept to himself and his two children and rarely mingled with women in the past to atone for his sins, at this moment, feeling the pure intentions of the children, Lei Ze felt a happiness in his heart that was even greater than the romantic encounters with women.

It was at this moment that he truly realized what he wanted.

When Lei Ze happily accepted the money, he had no idea that his little cutie's own father was also struggling to make money.

After the banquet ended, Gao Sen's calm expression vanished completely. He didn't bother to call someone to clean up the mess in the villa. He pushed away Chu Xiangyun, who rushed towards him with tears in her eyes, and hurriedly went to the study to make a phone call. After making several calls, his heart sank to the ground. He felt as if a bucket of snow water had been poured over his head, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

His hands trembled as he thought of the apologetic words he had heard on the phone. He tried to take a deep breath, but he couldn't help himself and swept everything off his desk.

Absolutely outrageous!

These bastards, just because Lei Xuan offered a very good price, actually sold Gao's shares quietly.

Why don't you come and tell him?!

Gao Sen's handsome face was contorted with rage, barely able to contain his fury.

The Gao Group has grown to its current size through his hard work, but Lei Xuan is eyeing it covetously. If he's not careful, the Gao Group might no longer belong to him. If the group does fall into Lei Xuan's hands, and Lei Xuan is even more ruthless, he could change the Gao Group's name, and what connection would the company have with him afterward?

The Gao family business was passed down from their ancestors, representing the hard work of several generations. If it were destroyed in his hands, he would not be able to rest in peace even in death. Gao Sen forcefully loosened his bow tie, his hands clenching tightly. He just couldn't understand why Lei Xuan's spirit would linger.

He didn't need to waste money acquiring Gao's shares at above-market prices; for a profit-driven businessman, that would actually be a losing proposition. But Lei Xuan did exactly that—it was hardly something a CEO of a large conglomerate would do. Gao Sen was seething with anger.

He wasn't stupid, and of course he understood what Lei Xuan wanted to do by asking him to organize that cooperation project in the city center.

She kept him occupied with countless tasks so he wouldn't be distracted, and then secretly stabbed him in the back. Lei Xuan didn't even suffer a loss, because if the Gao family changed hands, the land he had negotiated would still be in Lei Xuan's hands, and he could easily get rid of Gao Sen and do it all by himself.

But how could Gao Sen be willing to accept this? He tried his best to suppress his anger, slowly thinking of a solution, calculating the shares he owned in the Gao family. The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became, and then cold sweat broke out on his back. This was because he realized that the shares held by Lei Xuan, plus the shares held by Sheng Yao and Gao Xi of the Sheng family, were already comparable to his own.
