Old Master Bai's banquet ended quickly.
Aside from getting to know a bunch of people and receiving some flattery and projects, Xia Muge didn't gain much else.
Those opportunities to meet influential people by attending banquets are reserved for the main characters.
The opportunities that belong to the protagonist are not so easy to cut off; otherwise, why would the protagonist be called the protagonist?
Although Xia Muge felt somewhat displeased, he thought that things were already pretty good.
Ultimately, the most important thing is that Ye Feng has been kicked out, and Bai Ling has begun to dislike him.
Not only that, Bai Ling also seems to have a bit of affection for him.
However, Xia Muge is Qin Shuhua's fiancé, and Bai Ling certainly doesn't have any special feelings for Xia Muge at the moment.
He naturally wouldn't force Bai Ling.
If one's relationship with the Qin family is ruined because of beauty, then that would be unbeautiful.
Xia Muge actually had the idea of taking Bai Ling into his harem.
However, he is not the main character.
Both Bai Ling and Qin Shuhua are young ladies from wealthy families, so why would they be willing to share a man?
Mu Yun is different; she can be appeased with money.
Besides, Xia Muge also needs to consider his own health. He's just a normal person.
He already has two stunningly beautiful women by his side; there's no need for him to continue indulging in pleasure.
He even planned to let Lin Xue go.
Although Lin Xue was the main reason Xia Muge went bankrupt in the story, the root cause was Xia Muge's own foolishness. Moreover, he wouldn't give Lin Xue any chance now.
After seeing Qin Shuhua off, he went to Yunjing Garden and made love with Muyun again before falling into a deep sleep.
However, Xia Muge did not expect that just when he decided not to provoke Lin Xue, Lin Xue would contact him again.
"I'd like to see you one more time, is that alright?"
Lin Xue's message reveals a sense of powerlessness and humility.
At this point, she had no other options.
Only half a month had passed since she last brought three million home, and then her mother delivered a devastating blow: the money was all gone.
Her father, Lin Cheng, had originally been brought to the capital by her mother because of gambling.
After having money, Lin Cheng suddenly felt he should "return home in glory," so he bought many coats and expensive gifts and returned to his hometown of Lin'an.
As expected, Lin Cheng was showered with compliments from everyone he knew.
Then, those cronies contacted him again.
After that, Lin Cheng lost 500,000 yuan, and then his wins and losses fluctuated until he lost it all and was left with a huge debt.
This was definitely not a loss from normal gambling.
Instead, someone framed him.
However, gambling is illegal, so there's no way to report it to the police if someone sets a trap for you.
Lin Cheng had originally planned to slink back to the capital, since he didn't have any relatives in his hometown of Lin'an anyway. But the problem was, he had a son studying in Lin'an.
Therefore, debts cannot be left unpaid.
But the Lin family has no money.
Lin Xue suggested selling some of the luxury goods her mother had bought, but her mother was unwilling.
She said, "You can get Xia Muge to bring three million, then you can ask him for the rest. He has money anyway."
This one sentence left Lin Xue heartbroken and devastated.
She understood what her mother meant.
It's obvious that her family wants to sell her.
Besides this, Ye Feng also hoped that she would contact Xia Muge.
She clearly intended to break off her relationship with Xia Muge.
But……
At this moment, a hint of surprise appeared in Xia Muge's eyes upon receiving the message.
Immediately, he thought of the plot and couldn't help but reveal his self-righteousness.
In the storyline, Lin Xue doesn't occupy much screen time, and the focus is mainly on her awful family members.
Because of Xia Muge, Lin Xue didn't have any troublesome suitors or rich second-generation heirs around her. However, her father gambled, her mother liked to compare herself to others, and she had a younger brother who, although still in school, had gotten a girl pregnant at a young age.
In the story, every member of the Lin family is eccentric, but because of Xia Muge, they live a fulfilling life. And because of Lin Xue's 'traditional' values, Xia Muge is hopelessly in love with her.
However, Xia Muge is no longer fawning over Lin Xue; all the oddballs in the Lin family are now pinned on Lin Xue.
The Lin family is greedy. Although Xia Muge could easily appease them with a small amount of money, Lin Xue had no choice but to seek help from Xia Muge or Ye Feng.
When she sent messages to Ye Feng and Xia Muge, she chose the latter.
This is not to say that Xia Muge is very charming, but rather that Lin Xue's tragic situation in the story attracted more of Xia Muge's care, which led her to do various irrational things.
The first move was that Xia Muge gave Lin Xue shares in the Xia Group.
Even though the two weren't married yet, he gave the shares to an outsider.
Isn't that ridiculous?
It's fair to say that Xia Muge's obsession with Lin Xue in the story was extreme. But because he was a villain, his final fate can only be described as deserved.
Xia Muge's eyes narrowed slightly.
He wouldn't provoke Lin Xue, but there's no reason not to take advantage of someone who offers themselves up.
Anyway, this is just a simulated world.
Thinking of this, Xia Muge said, "You should know what you'll encounter at the Baiyun Hotel tomorrow night."
Lin Xue gritted her teeth.
How could she not know?
Now that Xia Muge is no longer pursuing her, if she wants to get more money, there is only one way: to sell herself.
This was her choice, and she had no other choice.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shed tears in her dormitory.
…
…
Meanwhile, Ye Feng also began preparing to deal with the Xia family.
The Xia family is large and powerful; the only way to defeat them is to start from within.
But that's not enough.
Xia Muge has a keen business sense, while Ye Feng at this time is someone who cannot produce his first pot of gold.
He had no choice but to ask others for help.
As for Ning Yu, she wouldn't have any intention of taking action against the Xia family now, and Ye Feng doesn't want the Ning family to know about his abilities.
After all, apart from Old Master Ning, everyone else in the Ning family looked down on Ye Feng.
Given his current abilities and reputation, finding a partner to deal with the Xia family would be extremely difficult.
However, this does not mean that Ye Feng is helpless.
On the contrary, Ye Feng had found his target at this moment.
That's the Jiang family.
When Xia Muge first rose to prominence, it was by stepping on the Jiang family that he ascended to his current position.
Although the Jiang family is still a powerful family in the capital, it is now far inferior to the Ning family.
Therefore, Ye Feng decided to cooperate with the Jiang family.
As long as we can get in touch with the Jiang family, we can then befriend several families that are on par with the Xia family, and then use that connection to deal with the Xia family.
Furthermore, Lin Xue was working in concert with them from within.
It has to be said that this was a very crude plan. But in the story, Xia Muge was defeated by this very plan.
