The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

On his way back, Luo Huai encountered Xing Yanzhao, who was looking for him.

Xing Yanzhao was on the phone, but his eyes were fixed on Luo Huai as he reached out to her.

"I understand, thank you Officer Qu."

Luo Huai reached out and took his hand. After he hung up the phone, she asked, "Officer Qu called. Did you find out about the construction site?"

"Hmm." Xing Yanzhao squeezed her hand. "You went to Guo Hui's? She didn't do anything to you, did she?"

"Of course we can't do anything to Luo Huai, but I don't know if we've done anything to Guo Hui," Zhu Shuangshuang said smugly.

It seems that Luo Huai has subdued Guo Hui.

Xing Yanzhao raised an eyebrow in surprise, wanting to know what had been said.

"They said their love was stronger than gold, but it almost made them jump out of bed in anger." Zhu Shuangshuang chuckled at the thought.

"Oh?" Xing Yanzhao pulled her into his arms, looked down into Luo Huai's bright eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly. "Loving each other? Their love is stronger than gold?"

He really wanted to know what Luo Huai had said.

Luo Huai, however, did not comply with his wishes. She let out a sweet "hmm" from her nose, as if to say, "Isn't that right?" Her eyebrows also rose slightly.

He looked much more lively than when he was lying in the hospital bed a while ago.

Xing Yanzhao felt comforted, took her hand and kissed it with the back of his lips, saying in a deep and magnetic voice, "Yes, our love is stronger than gold."

Luo Huai smiled brightly, "What did Officer Qu find out? Was it intentional?"

Xing Yanzhao shook his head. There was an old man who had heard some rumors from somewhere, saying that if he buried his child in a wealthy place, he would be reborn into a wealthy family in his next life.

So he dug up his son, who had been buried for half a year, from the grave. He knew he couldn't be buried in a wealthy family's courtyard, so he wanted to bury him in a place like a library, hoping he would be a talented person in his next life.

However, there was no library under construction in Ningcheng, so they couldn't get in even with the body on their backs. They heard that the investor of Chaoye Technology was richer in the two shopping malls under construction, so they contacted an acquaintance at the construction site and quickly buried their son there. Unexpectedly, the body was still discovered later.

The old man burying the body was crying his eyes out, saying it was all for the children. When asked if someone had instructed him to do it, the old man said he had just overheard it on the street.

The final conclusion was nothing short of an undeserved disaster.

Luo Huai sighed helplessly, "I don't know if the escape room and variety show plans will be enough to break even. Should we still build the technology mall?"

“Let’s build it somewhere else.” Xing Yanzhao had deliberately built a technology mall opposite Pei’s mall to compete with Pei for customers.

If we can't win now, there are other ways.

There are countless ways to suppress the Pei family. The Pei family only rose to prominence under Pei's father's leadership, and in just a few decades they have turned the tables so spectacularly. There must be some tricks involved.

While conducting the investigation, he also vigorously supported small and medium-sized companies that were in the same industry as Pei's, aiming to take away Pei's customers.

Anyway, Chaoye Technology and the Xing family have plenty of money; there's nothing that money can't accomplish.

Rumors of Xing Yanzhao's suppression of the Pei family have already spread in secret. Under the dual pressure of the Xing family and the government and technology sectors, as well as the pursuit of monetary interests, the various partners of the Pei family are showing signs of discarding them after they have served their purpose.

Just as the official announcement cleared Xing's name, it also proved Pei's innocence as the first suspect. Pei Yuanzhou breathed a sigh of relief, but then one problem after another occurred on the project. Some people said they were not going to cooperate anymore, while others began to distance themselves from the project.

Even President Qiao, who has always had a good relationship with the Pei family, is like this.

Pei Yuanzhou questioned President Qiao: "President Qiao, are you planning to kick me while I'm at it?"

“President Pei, it’s not about crossing the river and burning the bridge. Qiao’s Group still holds government projects and its focus is still there. I have to ensure this project is completed smoothly, right? So many people at Qiao’s Group are waiting to make a living.” After thinking it over, President Qiao gave him a hint, “The new partner is a small and medium-sized enterprise that is supported by policies. Why don’t you pass on a message to the higher-ups and ask?”

Pei Yuanzhou knew it was Xing Yanzhao who was suppressing them, so how did it get involved so deeply? Does Xing Yanzhao have such a powerful backer? Could it be that it was Old Master Xing who provided the connections?

He decided to go back and discuss it with his father.

Pei's father looked grave. "I'm going to the Yu family."

He personally visited the Yu family, who did not refuse to see him and knew his purpose. After some subtle probing from Pei's father, the Yu family smiled and spoke frankly.

"Pei Dong, shouldn't we give others a chance too?"

Pei's father immediately understood.

But if the higher-ups are wary of the Pei family's dominance in one region, shouldn't they also be wary of the Xing family? And of Xing Yanzhao? Xing Yanzhao controls two major companies, one an industry leader and the other one among the top three in the industry. That's what they should be most wary of.

Xing Yanzhao must have made some promise.

Mr. Pei narrowed his eyes, wanting to say something more in defense of the Pei family, but was only met with the reply that it was ultimately a business competition between the Xing and Pei families, and it was none of their business.

It's practically blocking his path.

Pei's father had worked hard for most of his life to achieve such a position, but he suffered repeated setbacks in his old age when he was about to retire.

After returning home, he said to his son earnestly, "Xing Yanzhao is a mad dog; he's going to bite our Pei family to death! Do you really think I should bow down to a mere brat?"

"Don't even think about it." Pei Yuanzhou said firmly. He had already lost to Luo Huai, how could he back down again? Even if it meant fighting to the death, he would fight Xing Yanzhao to the bitter end.

Until the very end, no one is a loser.

Mr. Pei patted his son on the shoulder, "Zhengyu didn't cause any trouble, did he?"

"No, he's not bad." Lin Zhengyu was also a great help to him. A young master carefully cultivated by a wealthy family is not a good-for-nothing, especially since he was personally trained by Father Xing.

"Where is Youyou?" Pei's father asked again.

Pei Yuanzhou was unaware that when he picked up his phone, he found many missed calls and notifications, all from his younger sister, Pei Youyou.

Luo Huai called her over, but she was scared!

When he called, the other end didn't answer for a long time.

It's 11 p.m. now. Why is Luo Huai calling Youyou over at this hour?

The phone in my bag kept buzzing.

Pei Youyou reached for her phone, but when she saw the burly man standing behind Luo Huai, she shrank back; she was genuinely scared.

She had originally planned to have her brother come with her, but Luo Huai emphasized on the phone that she had to come alone, otherwise the police would come and handcuff her immediately.

Pei Youyou had no choice but to come alone.

They've been here for over ten minutes, and Luo Huai hasn't said anything. The fierce Xing Yanzhao isn't here either; the only scary ones are the bodyguards.

"Luo Huai, what do you want with me?" Pei Youyou looked around, still in a hotel.

"I'll give you a gift later." Luo Huai always had a calm and gentle demeanor. In the past, such a smile would have made Pei Youyou think she was easy to bully, but now it made her heart tremble.

Pei Youyou didn't believe it was a gift.

"Are you seeking revenge?" Pei Youyou saw Luo Huai walking towards her, took a slight step back, and said with her chest out, "I, I'm not afraid of you."

"Don't stutter." Luo Huai smiled slightly, bent down to pick up the remote control on the table, turned on the hotel's TV, and the hotel lobby's surveillance footage immediately appeared.

Just as Pei Youyou was wondering what was going on, two familiar figures entered through the revolving door.

Lin Zhengyu and Xiang Nan.

Pei Youyou stepped forward to take a look, but didn't notice anything unusual.

"What do you mean?"

“Don’t you know? This is a love hotel.” Luo Huai’s eyes were also fixed on the screen, watching the two enter the elevator, and then the screen disappeared. “Lin Zhengyu and Xiang Nan come to this hotel every week and stay in the same room.”

"You're talking nonsense!" Pei Youyou glared angrily. "Xiang Nan is a man!"

“Yes.” Luo Huai glanced at her slowly. “Xiang Nan is a man, but Lin Zhengyu is indeed likable, appealing to both men and women.”

Pei Youyou, this is the price you pay for ruining my child and my life.

one.
