As the central city of S Province, X City, under the long-term management of its chief executive officer Lü Weidong, has a deeply entrenched power base, making the entire S Province like an iron barrel, leaving Sun Minghui with nowhere to attack.
Liu Huimin is a crucial link in this chain of events. According to Sun Minghui's investigation over the past three years, Liu Huimin suddenly appeared a year ago as a custodian handling Lu Weidong's overt business dealings.
Lu Weidong is extremely cunning. Each of his businesses is managed by a different person for only three years, after which the new person takes over. The Yas Hotel was one of the properties that Lu Weidong had his eye on, and it was taken over by Liu Huimin a year ago.
After Sun Minghui left, Shen Lang stood by the artificial lake, looking at the schools of koi, and laughed, "Looks like I've encountered a big fish this time."
Dongxue produced a white cloak from somewhere, walked behind Shen Lang and draped it over his shoulders, saying softly, "Young Master, it's getting chilly at night."
"How long have you been in the Yu family?" Shen Lang asked.
Dongxue said, "Young master, the four of us entered the Yu family when we were three years old, and it has been twenty-five years since then."
"Twenty-five years," Shen Lang sighed. "A mortal's life is no more than a hundred years, and even a master of the ancient martial arts realm is no more than two hundred years old."
Shen Lang continued, "Do you regret joining the Yu family?"
Dongxue smiled and shook her head, saying bitterly, "We grew up in the Yu family since we were little, so we have no right to regret it."
At this moment, Shen Lang turned around and looked at Dong Xue: "Do you miss home?"
Dongxue was silent for a moment, then nodded.
Then he added, "Home is a very distant place in our memories. I don't even know where my home is. From childhood to adulthood, wherever there are young ladies, that's our home."
"Once this matter is settled, you should all go home and visit your families," Shen Lang said. "I will tell you where your homes are then."
Upon hearing this, Dongxue's body suddenly trembled.
Just then, Chunyu came over carrying a blue and white porcelain bowl: "Young master, have some hangover soup."
Shen Lang took the bowl and took two small sips with the jade spoon.
Xia Bingyan returned quickly, and the three of them went back to Villa No. 1.
When he returned, Shen Lang saw Yu Xian'er teaching Qin Shiya, Xia Yang, and Qiu Ye how to cook.
After seeing Shen Lang and the others return, Yu Xian'er called Chunyu and Dongxue over and said, "Come here, I'll teach you how to cook. If I'm not around in the future, you'll be in charge of the young master's meals."
Shuang'er was sitting on the sofa watching TV, holding a plate of purple grapes in her hand.
Shen Lang walked up to her and asked, "Shuang'er, why aren't you going to study?"
Shuang'er only then snapped out of the scene, hurriedly put down the plate, stood up and said, "Young Master is back."
Shen Lang glanced at the TV program; it was an old anime called Sailor Moon.
"Everyone else is busy, but you're slacking off," Shen Lang said with a smile, scolding him.
Shuang'er put her hands behind her back and said with a grin, "Young master, I know everything that young lady knows, so I don't need to learn it. Besides, it was young lady who told me to watch TV."
Yu Xian'er then said, "Young master, let her watch it. This girl likes watching this anime."
Just then, Shen Lang's phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was an unknown number.
"Hello, who is this?" Shen Lang answered the phone.
"Brother Lang, I'm He Yongze," He Yongze said enthusiastically.
"What's wrong? Is there something you need calling so late?" Shen Lang asked.
He Yongze said, "Brother Lang, if you're not resting right now, come over here for a bit. I have a gift for you."
"You're going to give me a gift?" Shen Lang asked, puzzled. "What gift?"
"Hehe! You'll see when you get here, Brother Lang. I guarantee you'll like it. Brother Yang is here too," He Yongze said mysteriously.
"Okay then, I'll be there in a bit." Shen Lang hung up the phone after saying that.
"Winter Snow, come with me."
Shen Lang and Dong Xue, who had just returned home, drove their McLaren out again.
Shuang'er watched the taillights disappear through the glass wall, then hurriedly ran to Yu Xian'er and whispered, "Miss, Young Master and Dongxue went to the bar, the one owned by He Yongze."
Yu Xian'er gave her a charmingly disdainful look and said, "You little gossip, go watch your TV."
Upon arriving at the entrance of the mAx bar, He Yongze and Zhang Chengyang had already been waiting for quite some time.
"Brother Lang!" Zhang Chengyang waved excitedly when he saw Shen Lang.
Shen Lang walked over with Dong Xue and laughed, "Why did you two bother me so late at night?"
He Yongze chuckled and whispered, "Brother Lang, the campus belle of USTC, Mi Qi'er, is working part-time here. She said she wanted to do *that*, so I thought I'd save some good stuff for you!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Lang rolled his eyes at the two of them, annoyed: "You called me here in the middle of the night just for this?"
"Brother Lang, although this Mi Qi'er isn't as pretty as the other wives in the family, she's mixed-race and has very distinctive features," He Yongze said, raising an eyebrow in a flippant tone.
"Alright, let's go take a look." Shen Lang also became interested upon hearing this.
He Yongze then led them to a private room.
The table in the private room was filled with wine and fruit platters. After settling Shen Lang and Dong Xue in, He Yongze waved to the waiter.
A few moments later, several scantily clad girls entered the private room. One of them, with fair skin, blonde hair, blue eyes, and a high nose, wearing black stockings with lettering and a super short bodycon skirt, strode over to Shen Lang as soon as she entered the room. She then sat down right next to him, her thigh brushing against his.
"Hello, Brother Lang, my name is Michelle." Michelle introduced herself.
I immediately checked Michelle's information.
Client: Michelle
Identity: International student at USTC
Inner desire: To have a lot of money to maintain a high quality of life.
Brief introduction: Mi Qi'er, whose father is from Yanhuang and mother is from Yingguo, is the illegitimate daughter of Mi Zongru, the eldest son of the Mi family in Yanjing, in Yingguo. She grew up in Yingguo with her mother.
Three years ago, when Mi Zongru came to Yanhuang to study, his wife found out about it when he visited her. As a result, she stopped Mi Zongru from giving Mi Qier and her mother a large amount of living expenses.
With no source of income, Michelle's mother remarried in the Eagle Kingdom and severed ties with Michelle.
Now, Miki has no one to rely on in the Yanhuang Kingdom. Having been used to the life of a pampered young lady since childhood, she cannot accept working part-time while studying. Therefore, she wants to sell her body to earn more wealth and maintain her high-quality life.
After reading it, Shen Lang felt quite sorry for Mi Qi'er's plight. She should have been a pampered young lady, but she was disliked by her mother and abandoned by her father.
"Hello, Michelle." Shen Lang gave Michelle a wicked smile.
Michelle looked at Shen Lang, her eyes sparkling with spring water, and thought to herself, "This mysterious Eastern man is so handsome."
