Six o'clock in the afternoon.
Xu Xinghe finally returned to the old house.
Xu Mingli had already arrived. Seeing her enter, he stood up abruptly. "Xinghe, where have you been? Didn't you say you were waiting at home for me to come back with the rice cakes?"
"I'm going out for some fresh air." Xu Xinghe was a little tired and didn't want to play games with him. She picked up the pastries and went upstairs. "Big brother, I'll give you an extra point."
Xu Mingli wanted to say something, but the door had already closed, so he could only sit down again with a gloomy face.
The third brother hasn't come back yet. I don't know what he's busy with, but it must be related to Xu Xinghe.
He also had to make plans to prevent the third brother from succeeding.
Thinking of this, he immediately got up and left again.
Inside the room.
Xu Xinghe entered the space and began organizing the assets within.
She plans to donate the antiques, and also some of the gold.
According to her memories from her previous life, the policies would change soon.
In the end, her status as a capitalist's daughter will become a source of trouble.
In his previous life, Xu Mingli even moved to Hong Kong to avoid it, and only returned to Shanghai after the policy changed.
She also needs to be prepared for this to avoid getting herself into trouble.
Moreover, Jiang Linchuan is a soldier, and if he gets involved with the identity of a capitalist's daughter, he is very likely to be implicated.
Thinking of him, Xu Xinghe took out more gold bars.
Donate more; that way it's safer.
She wasn't afraid, but Jiang Linchuan wasn't.
He wanted to become a hero with a clean record, without any blemishes.
Suddenly, a telephone rang.
Xu Xinghe returned to her room and pressed the call button.
The old butler's hoarse voice rang out, "Miss, Xu Mingxin is in contact with some scoundrels. I had someone investigate, and they discovered he intends to harm you. He plans to have these scoundrels approach you, drug you, and then he'll reappear and take you away. In that case, you'll have no choice but to submit to him and be grateful for his life-saving grace. Miss, it's best if you don't go out these next few days."
"It's nothing." Xu Xinghe sneered, "He wants to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, but he'll have to be able to actually do it!"
...
the next day.
The weather in Shanghai was excellent, with bright sunshine and a gentle breeze.
Although it is already autumn, it is still scorching hot.
Xu Xinghe swaggered toward the supply and marketing cooperative, seemingly unaware of the suspicious figures lurking behind him.
As soon as she entered, the men immediately found a shady corner to hide in, smoking and whispering among themselves.
"That's her, tsk, she's really pretty, Xu Mingxin is lucky to have her."
“She’s a real gem now, and she’s so attractive, we should ask for more money from her.”
"You're right. Let's go find him later and make him pay double, or let us have a turn too, hehe... He looks so tender, I bet you could squeeze water out of him!"
The men immediately revealed lewd smiles.
Are you talking about me?
A clear, girlish voice rang out from behind.
The group stood frozen in place, then suddenly turned around.
Xu Xinghe has a sweet smile and delicate features. Her braids hang loosely in front of her chest, and a cute little daisy is embroidered on the collar of her white shirt. Just standing there so charmingly, she is captivating.
"you……"
Xu Xinghe raised a finger to her lips. "Shh, don't threaten me or try to argue. I don't want to hear any nonsense right now. I'll ask you questions, and you'll answer them. Otherwise, I guarantee you'll regret it. Don't forget, I'm the daughter of the Xu family. Crushing you all is as easy as crushing a few ants!"
The group was frightened by her words and all of them became obedient.
The richest man's daughter must have the ability to deal with them.
Since we've been caught, we have no choice but to obey.
Xu Xinghe nodded in satisfaction, put her hands behind her back, and glanced at the faces of the group. "First question, how much money did Xu Mingxin give you?"
The group exchanged glances.
"One hundred yuan."
"One hundred each."
"So little?" Xu Xinghe sneered, her originally round eyes narrowing like a little fox. "I, the daughter of the richest man, am only worth a hundred yuan. No, a total of five hundred yuan."
"The second question is, when should we take action?"
"Let's do it today. We'll find an opportunity to make our move after you get out."
"The third question: Where is Xu Mingxin?"
"Xu Mingxin isn't here. He went to the library to see a classmate. We'll send someone to notify him after we take action, and then he'll come over."
Xu Xinghe nodded her head. "Here's what we'll do. I'll give each of you a thousand. You give Xu Mingxin the prepared drug, find a woman, and then figure out a way to get him into the second house in the alley ahead. Remember, that woman isn't there voluntarily; she's being forced, understand? As for the drug, Xu Mingxin prepared it himself. You definitely know where to buy it, right? The witnesses are all ready too. If you do a good job, I'll give each of you another five hundred."
The eyes of the group lit up when they heard this.
1,500 yuan!
huge sum of money!
Nowadays, a proper factory worker in Shanghai only earns about fifty yuan a month.
"Okay! We'll do whatever you say!"
Xu Xinghe wasn't stingy either. She pretended to rummage through her small bag and pulled out five goldfish. "One for each of you, that's definitely enough for a thousand. I'll pay the rest after this is all over."
Several people took the little goldfish, put it in their mouths and bit it several times to make sure it was real. Their hands were trembling with excitement.
No wonder she's the daughter of Shanghai's richest man; she doesn't carry money with her, she carries gold!
"Miss Xu, rest assured, we will definitely do it!"
“We’ll contact Xu Mingxin right away and give him the medicine. As for the woman, just find my lover; she’s the best actress.”
Xu Xinghe didn't care how these people did it, as long as their goal was achieved.
She found a coffee shop, sat by the window, looked out at the alleyway not far away, and eagerly awaited the show.
Behind the decorations, a young man caught a glimpse of her and his eyes lit up. "Holy crap, what a beauty! Lian Xiao, look!"
Lian Xiao turned his head and saw that familiar profile.
Tsk, it's her again.
He scoffed, "Don't even think about it. She has a fiancé, and he's going to join her in the army soon."
The man immediately wilted. "It's rare to find someone so beautiful, and she's already taken. Wait, do you know her? Why don't you introduce us? Maybe she'll take a liking to me and not want to go with me to the army. Someone as beautiful as her should be pampered, how can she go through that hardship?"
Lian Xiao picked up his coffee cup. "Go yourself if you want to. I'm not going to do something so unethical."
That's what he said, but his gaze remained fixed on Xu Xinghe.
About half an hour later.
Xu Mingxin has arrived.
He hurried into the alleyway, unable to contain his eagerness.
As soon as they entered, they were held down by two thugs and forced to take the medicine.
To make it work faster, I gave her two extra pills.
Xu Mingxin pressed himself against the wall in disbelief, "What are you trying to do!"
The scoundrel chuckled, his tone sinister, "Shh, keep your voice down. You don't want outsiders to hear this, do you?"
Xu Mingxin choked, and could only lower his voice, "Didn't I say that the medicine was given to Xu Xinghe!"
The rogue slapped his forehead, "Oh dear, look at my memory, I got it wrong! But it doesn't matter who eats it, it's all the same anyway. In the end, it's just the same thing."
Xu Mingxin was so angry he almost vomited blood.
Can these be the same?
What he wanted was Xu Xinghe's debauchery!
He's a hero, he came to save the damsel in distress!
Instead of a beastly scoundrel who uses force!
This is crucial to whether he can successfully coax money out of Xu Xinghe later!
Before Xu Mingxin could think of a solution, a warm current came from his lower abdomen.
My blood seems to be rushing through my veins, and I feel unbearably hot!
The rogue waved his hand, and immediately a woman ran over, clinging to Xu Mingxin with a seductive look on her face. "Oh dear, little brother, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Mingxin's mind was in a daze, and his vision gradually became blurry. Finally, his gaze settled on the woman's soft lips.
My brain exploded in an instant!
He pulled the person into his arms fiercely, his arm veins bulging; it wasn't a kiss, but more like a bite.
Two scoundrels shoved them from behind and brought them to the front of the second house.
The next second, the woman struggled to push Xu Mingxin away, her previous seductive expression replaced by fear, "Help!"
She pounded on the door, crying, "Is anyone home? Help! Someone please save me!"
Xu Mingxin's eyes were bloodshot. Ignoring everything else, he grabbed her again, wanting to pull her into his arms, "Xinghe, Xinghe..."
Hearing the commotion, the middle-aged man inside rushed out the door without even putting on his shoes.
The woman pushed Xu Mingxin away again, her face streaked with tears, looking utterly pitiful. "Big brother, help! This man is insane! He's trying to bully me in broad daylight!"
The middle-aged man immediately pulled him behind him and was about to speak when Xu Mingxin suddenly pounced on him again.
He instantly flew into a rage, "How dare you! I, the dignified police chief of the Eastern District of Shanghai, am right here, and you dare to lay a hand on me!"
