Li Xiangdong lived a wealthy life until sixty, with a house full of children and grandchildren, but one day he was sent to the heavens by the two green hats his wife gave him.
When he opened ...
Eating people in this unfinished building is as easy as eating pork or mutton.
Nobody thought there was anything wrong with killing someone.
Just like no one thinks killing chickens or sheep is a crime.
"Hey, Hayato, after you're done playing, take her to Doctor Ye to check if there's anything wrong with her body."
Hayato's eyes sparkled. "Can I stay a few more days?"
The man who had spoken earlier said, "We'll see! If this woman is healthy and her heart is functioning, you can play with her for a few more days without any problem."
They said these things right in front of the woman.
There was absolutely no attempt to avoid any taboos.
Of course, it's also clear that they had no intention of sparing the woman's life.
In fact, by now, in their eyes, this woman is already a dead person.
"Click~"
The woman's jawbone was removed.
This way, the woman would be unable to speak, nor could she bite her tongue to commit suicide.
Her hands and feet were tightly bound with hemp rope, and she was thrown directly into Hayato's room.
"Hehe~ Go on, Hayato! This is our birthday present for you!"
"Chinese women are actually quite delicious."
"You went to patronize those dirty women again?"
"Sigh, there's nothing we can do. It's not like before, when you could just pick any woman on the street."
As they spoke, they whistled with a mixture of nostalgia and regret.
Hayato, a short man in his thirties, with a lean build, single eyelids, and small eyes.
His room was a south-facing room, and the furniture, appliances, and home furnishings inside were still very new.
Hayato helped the woman sit up gently, a stark contrast to the rudeness of the men earlier.
"May I have your name?"
The woman shook her head, looking down to indicate that her jaw was dislocated and she could not speak.
Hayato said "Oh," and reached out to lift the woman's chin.
Another "click"!
The woman smacked her lips, and she could speak.
"My name is Du Liang."
"Ah, what a beautiful name! Just like your beauty, it's very attractive to me."
Hayato's small eyes gleamed with infatuation as he showered him with praise.
Du Liang felt nauseous, and goosebumps covered his skin.
He winked at Hayato, "My hands hurt, my feet hurt, could you help me untie the ropes?"
Hayato shook his head. "No! Your kung fu is too good. You ran away as soon as you were untied. I can't beat you."
He's quite honest, actually.
The two were silent for a moment.
Then, Hayato said a few more words, mostly asking about Du Liang's family situation.
Du Liang remained silent, adopting an air of unwavering loyalty.
Hayato felt even more itchy when he saw him like this.
"My beauty, it's dark now, let's do something fun together!"
Du Liang cursed his bad luck inwardly, but said aloud, "I'm going to the restroom first."
Hayato shook his head. "Let's just relieve ourselves inside!"
As he spoke, Falcon brought Du Liang a spittoon.
Du Liang: "..."
"Please don't stay inside, I feel uncomfortable."
Hayato shook his head and turned his back. "I won't look at you."
He said that, but his body betrayed him by blocking the doorway.
This Hayato is still very wary.
Du Liang's eyes darted around, and he quickened his pace behind him, "Listen! It sounds like someone's eavesdropping outside the door!"
Hayato walked outside and suddenly flung the door open.
The men who had been fighting earlier rushed in.
Hayato asked helplessly, "What are you doing?"
Several men chuckled wickedly, unconcerned, and instead asked him lecherously.
"Hayato, haven't you made your move yet?"
"Hayato, we really didn't know you had such unusual tastes that you would be interested in a woman who is so much taller than you."
"Uh, this woman is as tall as a man, and she even has an Adam's apple..."
"……What!"
"Adam's apple!"
————
Li Xiangdong and Men Shifang have already drunk their third pot of tea.
“Li Xiangdong, you really are stubborn. You should know that the conditions I offered are already very high.”
Li Xiangdong took another sip of tea, "But I'm not worthy of such high conditions you've set!"
Men Shifang leaned closer to him, "You know what I want."
Li Xiangdong blinked innocently, "But I can't do it!"
Men Shifang's breathing became heavier, and his eyes became even more fervent. "You can do it. Believe in yourself!"
Why don't you do it through Xiong Bingwen?
“Xiong Bingwen… there are some things I can’t tell you right now.”
Li Xiangdong pressed further, "What about the people behind Xiong Bingwen?"
Men Shifang became alert. "What do you want to know?"
Li Xiangdong stroked his teacup. "You should let me know your capabilities before you make a choice."
"It's easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow. Li Xiangdong, original shares are the most valuable."
"If you come in a minute earlier, everything you get later might double."
Men Shifang's mouth was dry from talking, and he gradually became restless.
Li Xiangdong stretched for a while, and his expression softened somewhat.
"What did you say you could give me? Tell me again."
Men Shifang's spirits lifted, but he also felt a little disdain in his heart.
“I can get your girlfriend a job at the university, get her promoted to professor within three years, and even make her the leader of a national key laboratory.”
With Ning Ruoruo's doctoral degree, it would actually be very easy for her to stay at the university as a teacher.
However, becoming a professor within three years, or even the leader of a national key laboratory, is not an easy task.
"Anything else?"
"And you, I can make you the biggest and most successful businessman! As long as you agree, making money will be as easy as breathing."
"Does that mean all the money I earn belongs to me?"
"Of course not! But even if you get a fraction of it, you'll still be one of the richest people in China."
Li Xiangdong understood; this was the well-known white glove, also called a comprador.
"Anything else?"
"Your younger siblings can all study abroad—Japan, the United States, Germany, or other European countries—the choice is yours!"
Li Xiangdong sighed, "That sounds really tempting!"
Men Shifang said confidently, "This is the most generous offer I've ever made."
"But what you're saying, even without your help, we can achieve it with a little effort."
Men Shifang's expression suddenly changed. "You won't agree?!"
Li Xiangdong shrugged. "If someone isn't convinced, it's only because the conditions aren't favorable enough."
Men Shifang sat back down, thought for a moment, then waved to the person next to him and whispered a few words.
Li Xiangdong closed his eyes to rest.
If bribery fails, then coercion will be the next step.
Men Shifang will definitely bring out something or someone that frightens him.
Under intimidation, people become terrified and then everything becomes negotiable.
After waiting for only a few minutes, footsteps could be heard.
