“It’s none of your business how much money you have. I’m telling you, you can’t ask your brother-in-law for money anymore,” Meng Zhiyun said sternly.

After being scolded, Meng Zhiyu pouted and snorted. Then, her eyes darted around, and she ran to Wang Hu's side, grinning, and asked, "Brother-in-law, how much is your car?" She knew it wasn't good to ask directly how much it cost, so she inquired indirectly.

Wang Hu said, "This car cost 15 million in full, and your brother-in-law got a great deal. I originally just wanted to buy a nice car, but I didn't expect to buy a limited edition. I wouldn't sell it even if it were priced at 17 million now."

Meng Zhiyu stared wide-eyed and gaped, utterly bewildered as to how this car could be worth 15 million, especially since the back wasn't made of iron but rather a layer of plastic sheeting.

If Maybach's officials knew what she was thinking, they'd probably give her a good thrashing. Wang Hu didn't know what level this car was at before; she only found out after searching it on Baidu. The convertible top was a special design; when you go off-roading, you can lie inside and see the starry sky.

They arrived at the ward in no time. Meng Zhiyu rushed in first, took the money, and said to his parents, "Mom and Dad, look, this is the bride price my brother-in-law brought. It's much better than Zhou Yunpeng's."

Meng Zhiyun blushed upon hearing this from behind, then introduced him to his parents, "Mom and Dad, this is Wang Hu." He then introduced Wang Hu to his parents, "Wang Hu, these are my parents."

Wang Hu's nervousness returned, and when he greeted them, he simply said, "Hello, Mom and Dad."

After hearing this, Meng's parents exchanged a glance and then burst into laughter. They both thought the child was quite interesting, so they asked Wang Hu to sit down and inquire about his family and situation.

When they heard that Wang Hu was 18 years old, the two looked at Meng Zhiyun with a mixture of doubt and a sense of awe, as if to say, "My daughter is really amazing."

As the conversation progressed, their relationship became more and more harmonious. Then Wang Hu asked, "What's the situation with Dad's injury now? I heard from Xiao Meng that he needs to be hospitalized, so we rushed over here."

Meng's mother said, "It's nothing serious. The doctor said there was a slight fracture, but he can recover at home. Later, rumors about Yunyun kept spreading in the group, and your father got so angry that he argued with them. He fainted from the stress and had to be taken to the hospital, but he's fine now."

Wang Hu was immediately relieved upon hearing this, and then asked, "What's the current situation with Zhou Yunpeng? Has the police arrested him or has he escaped?"

Upon hearing Wang Hu's question, Meng's parents both showed angry expressions. Meng's mother then said, "They were supposed to be arrested that same day, but they were released that same day. Then rumors started circulating in the village. Otherwise, Dad wouldn't have gotten into an argument and ended up in the hospital."

Wang Hu was furious when he heard this, so he called Li Wanting. She immediately understood what was going on and told him, "The police will probably classify it as a fight, fine him, and release him. But don't worry, Attorney Liu will be here tomorrow. Pick him up, and we'll secure the evidence. We should be able to get him charged with 'picking quarrels and provoking trouble.'"

"As for his gambling organization, his former accomplices have already been sentenced. My assistant went to see that person, and as soon as Zhou Yunpeng's name was mentioned, the person remembered him. He was willing to identify Zhou Yunpeng and even get a reduced sentence. He made a condition that his family receive 100,000 yuan."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu said to Li Wanting, "I'll give him 200,000 yuan. If he can come up with something else, I'll even increase it to 300,000 yuan. I'll make him work the sewing machine until he dies."

Li Wanting, on the other end, felt helpless. She couldn't very well ask her to fabricate evidence. She said to Wang Hu, "Okay, I'll inquire further and see if there are any other clues."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Hu looked at his parents-in-law and said, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I will definitely bring Zhou Yunpeng to justice. You don't need to be too angry; it's not worth ruining your health."

When Wang Hu made the phone call, he didn't hide it from Meng's parents and heard the whole conversation. Wang Hu was willing to spend hundreds of thousands of yuan to avenge them, and he was increasingly approving of this son-in-law.

They chatted until 9:30, when Meng's mother said, "Xiaoyun, take Xiaowang and your sister to find a place to rest. It's getting late. Your father will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, so just remember to come and pick him up."

Wang Hu said, "Mom! I'll keep it here, you guys go to sleep."

Mencius' mother said, "Good child, the hotels here are far away. You have a car, so it will be more convenient to take them with you. Besides, you are not familiar with this hospital."

Wang Hu said, "Alright! Take care of yourself!"

Then Meng Zhiyun, along with Wang Hu and Meng Zhiyu, left the ward. Meng's father also wanted to see them off, but he was receiving an IV drip and couldn't see them. However, when he looked down at the ground, he saw that the bag of money was still there.

He quickly called out to Meng's mother, "Wife, let them take this money back. There are many people coming and going in this place, don't let them lose it." Meng's mother picked up the money and quickly caught up with them, saying, "Take this money with you."

Wang Hu said, "This money is for you, Mom. We brought money with us!"

"Oh dear! You silly child, so much money! There are so many people coming and going in this hospital, don't lose it. Take it home first, and don't bring so much cash next time." After saying that, Meng's mother went back.

In the ward, Meng's father's fellow patient said to him, "This son-in-law is really good. He came to see you, but he didn't bring any fruit or anything. He brought a bag of money. He seems to be a filial son."

Mr. Meng said with a proud look, "My daughter's taste is definitely not bad. This is the first time I've met this child, and I didn't expect her to give me such a big surprise. If she hadn't brought fruit, it wouldn't have been a big problem, after all, she's only 18 years old."

...

Wang Hu used the navigation app in the car to search for hotels, and found that there were quite a few in Ningling County. He randomly chose one and booked two suites.

After going upstairs, Wang Hu was overjoyed, thinking that Meng Zhiyun would sleep with him. To his surprise, Meng Zhiyun brought her younger sister into the room and even made a funny face at him before leaving.

Wang Hu returned to his room, quickly turned on his laptop, and logged into the international securities platform account that Postal Savings Bank had set up for him. It was 10 PM here in China, just as the market opened in the United States.

Log in to Postal Savings Bank's online banking and $5 million is easily within reach. This private bank is really impressive; if an individual applied for that much foreign exchange, it would take several months to process.

Wang Hu made more than a dozen trades, turning $5 million into $300 million. Although he lost money a few times in between, if he hadn't lost money, he would have been worth over a billion by now.

During those few losses, Wang Hu felt like he was being watched. He made a quick decision, cutting his losses and running away, only losing a tiny bit. After all, the financial market is manipulated; international gold futures are transactions worth hundreds of billions.

Looking at the more than 300 million US dollars in his account, Wang Hu happily shut down his computer, took a shower, and then drifted off to sleep contentedly.
