After leaving the company, Zhuang Li went to the eyewear store and ordered a pair of contact lenses and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and then used the navigation to drive back to the original owner's home.
When the original owner's parents passed away, they left him a six-story self-built house.
However, this self-built house is located in the most backward urban village area of G City and is rented to many migrant workers. The people coming and going are very complicated.
In order to create a good growth environment for the child, the original owner did not live there, but instead took out a loan to buy a small apartment in the city center.
Zhuang Li walked into the apartment, looked around, and concluded, "The original owner had mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder."
7480, who had just woken up, looked confused: "Huh?"
Zhuang Li shook his head and said nothing more. Everything in the apartment was clean and gleaming, neatly arranged and categorized by color, function, size, shape, and other attributes. This was something only someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder or mysophobia would do.
He walked into the master bedroom and found it filled with women's items, with no trace of men. This showed that the original owner didn't live here, so he turned to the second bedroom. The second bedroom was filled with game consoles, sneakers, Gundam, action figures, and other items, which also didn't belong to the original owner.
Zhuang Li walked into the baby room of only a few square meters and discovered the original owner's computer, documents, accounting books and other items. He opened the wardrobe and saw that the clothes inside were hung from left to right according to the depth of the color. They were black, white and gray, simple and bright.
The original owner worked in accounting and he liked everything that was organized.
Zhuang Li nodded, pleased with the cleanliness of the room. The only downside was the lack of a few potted plants. He would have to buy some someday.
He walked around a bit, then went into the bathroom to shower. Afterward, he half-dried his hair and turned on his computer to look for Ming. In China, "Ming" is a word with a bad connotation, so few people would use it as a name.
As expected, Zhuang Li just hacked into the household registration system and searched for more than ten minutes when a man named Feng Ming came into his sight.
Judging from this handsome ID photo, he is undoubtedly the person Zhuang Li is looking for.
7480 glanced at the computer screen and suddenly became fully awake: "Master, the god is only 26 years old this year! You are an old cow eating young grass, hahahaha!"
"It's not my first time eating young grass." Zhuang Li smiled indifferently.
He quickly exited the household registration system and began a large-scale search for Feng Ming's personal information.
"But this is the first time that there's such a big age gap!" 7480 giggled while holding her round belly.
Zhuang Li curled his lips and said, "I'm old and my teeth are not good. It's time to change my taste and eat some tender grass."
While chatting and joking, Feng Ming's personal information has been collected.
He is 26 years old and has just returned from studying abroad. He also graduated from an Ivy League university with a master's degree in finance. Like Zhang Hu, he comes from a wealthy family, with a family business valued at tens of billions of yuan, making him extremely wealthy. However, his father was married twice and had several mistresses. He has nine children, both legitimate and illegitimate, and his family relationships are extremely complicated.
In recent years, his father's health has begun to falter and he has rarely appeared in public.
In order to ensure that the Feng family group would remain rock solid and unshakable after his death, Feng's father had no intention of dividing the shares equally among his nine children.
He wanted to pick out the most outstanding heir to take over the Feng Group, and the remaining eight children could only get some cash, real estate, jewelry, antiques or small companies that did not make much money.
That is to say, after his death, only one of his nine children will be the final winner, and the rest will be expelled from the top celebrity circle.
Money, power, and status are the ultimate dreams of every ambitious person. Having tasted the joy of possessing them, no one can endure the pain of losing them. It's easy to imagine that to seize the Feng family consortium, Feng's two wives, several mistresses, nine children, and everyone around them will engage in a fierce battle.
To test the abilities of his nine children, Father Feng gave them nine companies that had been losing money for years, hoping to see who could turn a profit in the shortest time. He also set a deadline of one year.
After one year, the person with the highest profit will inherit the entire Feng Group. Those who fail to make a profit can only receive tens of millions in compensation and then leave the Feng family completely.
The gap between tens of billions and tens of millions is quite big.
Feng Ming was born to Feng's father's second wife. He has no brothers or sisters with the same mother and father, so he is weak and alone.
Feng's father seemed very dissatisfied with him and assigned him a cosmetics company. The company's performance ranked last among the nine companies, and there were even rumors of its bankruptcy several times.
However, this company has a very long history. As early as the 1970s and 1980s, it had a very well-known brand called Yilan, which specialized in vanishing cream.
When it comes to Ylang Ylang Vanish Cream, many older women will recall their youthful glory. It was once a popular item that swept a generation.
It’s a pity that this company failed to keep up with the times and innovate. When better-performing foundation products such as pressed powder, liquid foundation, cream foundation, and air cushion appeared, vanishing cream was naturally eliminated by the market, and Yilan Cosmetics Co., Ltd. gradually declined.
Renovating an old house into a new one is much more difficult than simply building a new house on a vacant lot.
In the minds of consumers, Yilan has long been labeled as outdated and cheap. It is almost an impossible task to tear off these labels and turn losses into profits in a very short period of time.
So, although Feng Ming did not participate in Wu Zirui's story, his situation was also very bad.
More importantly, his mother, Ms. Liao Meilan, relied on the fact that she was Feng's father's legal wife to repeatedly insult Feng's father's ex-wife and several mistresses in the media, and complained that Feng's father's decision was unfair to her son.
She believed that her son was his father's legitimate son and should inherit all the property unconditionally.
Her radical remarks caused great dissatisfaction among Feng's father, and also made the other eight candidates for heirs regard Feng Ming as a thorn in their eyes.
Feng Ming will be assigned to Yilan, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, partly because of Ms. Liao Meilan's dragging of the team.
With a mother who speaks and acts without thinking, Feng Ming's life must be difficult. He is now trapped inside and outside, and he is at a loss as to what to do.
After reading the information about Feng Ming, Zhuang Li smoothed the wet hair on his forehead and let out a long sigh.
7480 clapped his hands and said, "Brilliant! I didn't expect that besides the main god's script, there would be a drama of a wealthy family fighting for inheritance! The gods are definitely defeated!"
"He's sure to win." Zhuang Li calmly compiled his resume into an email and sent it to Yilan's Human Resources Department.
They are hiring an administrative assistant.
7480: "...You are cheating!"
Zhuang Li chuckled, then picked up the hair dryer and slowly dried his hair in front of the mirror.
Just as he finished his work, he heard the sound of a door opening outside. A woman said with great relief, "Xiao Rui, thank goodness you let me take another route, otherwise I would have been hit and killed by that truck! You are really Mom's lucky star!"
"Mom, you must be careful when driving in the future. You can't wear these high heels anymore." A rough voice came. It was Wu Zirui who was in the voice change period.
"You said that house was going to be demolished—"
Wu Qiqi's voice stopped abruptly because Zhuang Li's shoes were placed at the entrance. When Wu Zirui found out, he immediately covered her mouth.
Wu Qiqi also saw Zhuang Li's shoes and was terrified. If she had just spoken out and told others that the old house was going to be demolished, Zhuang Li would definitely not give them a share in the divorce.
Zhuang Li hadn't even graduated from high school when he insisted on marrying Wu Qiqi, nearly missing his college entrance exams. This angered his parents, who were deeply dissatisfied with their daughter-in-law, believing she was a bad influence on their son and had an unruly private life. As a result, they stopped interacting with Wu Qiqi.
In order to protect the interests of their son, the two elders left a will before their death, leaving the old house to their son alone, with no share for their daughter-in-law.
This is legally binding. So if Wu Qiqi doesn't resort to some trickery, she won't have the right to divide the property during the divorce.
After the shock, Wu Qiqi was furious. She changed into slippers and stormed to the door of the baby's room, shouting, "Zhuang Li, come out! Jiang Bai called me and said you quit. What's going on? Do you know we still have a mortgage to pay? You're in your thirties, not your early twenties. Where are you going to find a better job? Do you want us mother and daughter to starve like this?"
Zhuang Li opened the door and said calmly, "You can find a job to supplement the family income."
"What did you say?" Wu Qiqi was stunned.
Zhuang Li walked past her into the living room, picked up the remote control, and kept changing channels with a calm expression. He had no intention of answering his wife's questions.
Wu Qiqi was ignored for the first time, and her mood became even worse. She pressed him, "I don't care, you have to go apologize to Jiang Bai's cousin! You only earn 30,000 yuan a month, so what's wrong with being scolded by your boss? Do you think he's wronged you? Are you being pretentious?"
"Wu Qiqi," Zhuang Li turned to look at the woman with delicate makeup but eyes filled with hostility, and asked slowly, "Do you think I don't have a temper?"
"Ha! Are you throwing a tantrum at me?" Wu Qiqi laughed sarcastically and spoke rapidly, "Come on! Throw yourself on! Argue with me, hit me! I want to see if you have the guts!"
She threw her bag worth tens of thousands of dollars on the ground and rolled up her sleeves.
She dared to guarantee with her own head that Zhuang Li would never touch a single hair of hers.
Wu Zirui went into the kitchen to get some water, ignoring his parents' quarrel. This was definitely not the mindset of a fourteen-year-old. He was too calm.
Zhuang Li wasn't irritated by Wu Qiqi's aggressiveness. He stood up, slowly walked over to Wu Qiqi, and slowly took off his heavy black-framed glasses, revealing his extremely handsome face.
He stared at the woman intently, a dangerous glint hidden in his pupils. His thin, crimson lips curled slightly, and his tone was as cold as a frost blade: "Wu Qiqi, I am telling you carefully today that I also have my bottom line. If you touch these bottom lines, the consequences will be very serious. I don't often lose my temper, but that doesn't mean I don't have a temper, understand?"
Wu Qiqi has dated too many men, so she knows very well which men can be played with and which men should be stayed away from.
At this moment, Zhuang Li, without his glasses, is the kind of man who should never be provoked.
There was only cruelty and contempt in his deep eyes, no love at all. When he said this warning, his attitude could not be more serious.
Under his gaze, Wu Qiqi began to tremble unconsciously.
This is not the way a husband looks at his wife at all!
