Only after being reborn did I realize how fascinating the world of the rich is.

The lunch break was short to begin with, but Li Xiaofeng made it last a long time. After they finished, the two of them cuddled together and slept until after 3 p.m.

Mr. Jiang knocked on the door.

"Bangbang, bangbang, Xueying, wake up! Open the door quickly, Dapeng is here to see you!"

After a while, Jiang Xueying, her hair disheveled, opened the door a crack and said somewhat flusteredly, "Okay, I know. I'll tidy myself up and come down right away!"

"Xueying, your mouth is sticky, what's on it? And there seems to be some in your hair too!"

Jiang Xueying quickly licked her hair with her tongue and forced a smile, saying, "It's nothing. I probably pressed my cheek while I was sleeping. It must be some of my drool that got on my hair."

"Dad, you can go downstairs now. You'll come down after you've tidied up a bit!"

"Then hurry up, don't keep Dapeng waiting too long. And you too, why did you sleep so long today? Oh, right, isn't Xiaofeng up yet? Dapeng is his classmate, do you want to wake him up too?"

Jiang Xueying quickly stopped him: "Dad, Xiaofeng is a guest. Let him sleep as long as he wants. Don't disturb his rest!"

"Young people these days are so lazy!" Mr. Jiang muttered a couple of times, then turned and went downstairs.

Jiang Xueying quickly closed the door, patted her chest, and said with lingering fear, "Oh dear, that really scared me to death. Let me quickly comb my hair. After I leave, you can leave in a little while!"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and put his arm around her: "No need to rush, Boss Cao doesn't have anything urgent to do, let him wait downstairs, I still have some things to tell you!"

"You... what time is it, and you're still thinking about these things? Besides, I'm already dressed!"

"It's okay, it'll be fine in a bit!" Li Xiaofeng said, gently patting her head.

"I'm really fed up with you!" Jiang Xueying said with a face full of resentment, but had no choice but to comply.

Li Xiaofeng stroked her hair and comforted her, "It's okay. Girls naturally take a long time to get ready. You can go out and wash your face and rinse your mouth later!"

After a while, Jiang Xueying finally came down slowly from the second floor, one hand slightly supporting her lower back.

"Xueying, why did it take you so long to come down?" President Jiang said reproachfully.

Jiang Xueying said innocently, "I just woke up, I need to rest a bit. Besides, girls need time to get ready!"

Cao Jinpeng quickly put on a smile and said, "It's alright, Uncle Jiang. Xueying is right. It does take a lot of time for girls to get ready."

Mr. Jiang glanced at his watch and said apologetically to Cao Jinpeng, "Dapeng, you chat with Xueying here for a while. I have something to do, so I won't keep you company any longer!"

"Okay, Uncle Jiang, you go ahead and do your thing. Xueying is fine with me!"

After her father left, Jiang Xueying's face fell, and she said to Cao Jinpeng with some displeasure, "It's only the beginning of the holiday, why did you come to see me!"

"It's a holiday, so I was thinking of going out with you!"

Jiang Xueying said calmly, "I haven't been sleeping well these past few days and I'm a bit tired. I need to rest for a couple of days, and we'll talk about it then!"

"Xueying, a shooting club recently opened in the suburbs where you can shoot real guns. Want to go check it out?"

Jiang Xueying muttered under her breath, "What's so fun about this? I'm practically being shot at like a target!"

"Xueying, what are you saying?"

"I mean, I'm not going. What would a girl like me do with guns? I'm not interested!"

Just as Cao Jinpeng was about to say something more, he suddenly noticed another person coming down from the second floor. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Li Xiaofeng.

"Third brother, what are you doing at the Jiang family's again? What do you want?"

Li Xiaofeng smiled and said casually, "It's nothing. Just like last time, I bought some more real estate from Uncle Jiang."

Cao Jinpeng turned his gaze to Jiang Xueying, who rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "What Xiaofeng said is true. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask my dad yourself later."

Li Xiaofeng asked with a smile, "You guys were having quite a lively conversation just now, what were you talking about?"

"Oh, I was just saying, a shooting club recently opened in the suburbs, you can go shoot some guns, do you want to come and have some fun?"

"No, I'm out of ammo and food. I'm going home to rest later!"

Cao Jinpeng sneered, saying with a disdainful tone, "You think this is like shooting with a slingshot? This is real guns and bullets!"

"Then I won't go either. I'm a bit tired today, I feel completely drained!"

Jiang Xueying chuckled and covered her mouth with her hand, "Serves you right!"

Li Xiaofeng glared at Jiang Xueying, then turned to Cao Jinpeng and said, "Boss, how's things between you and Lao Si? We're all brothers, there's no need to make things so tense!"

"Who's my brother? That bastard! He's asking me for three million, including the equity and dividends. I've worked so hard for so long, and it's all for him?"

"He's asking for an exorbitant price. You can try to negotiate, but the price will definitely be higher than before. After all, he's used a lot of people, and that costs money!"

"He used manpower and spent money, but didn't I spend money too? Besides, how much damage did he cause to my construction site, and how bad a reputation did he have with my clients!"

His outburst might cause me to lose a client. I'm already glad I didn't make him pay me back; he still dares to ask me for money! He's really gone too far!

"You said you gave him a million back then, and then you could have just focused on your construction site all by yourself, wouldn't that have been great!"

I advised you against it back then, but you wouldn't listen and insisted on going through with this. Looking at it now, isn't it a bit of a loss for you?

Cao Jinpeng glanced at him and said to Li Xiaofeng with dissatisfaction, "Third brother, are you here to persuade me or to ridicule me?"

Now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to stand up to him. If I give in to him, he'll be able to take advantage of me forever!

Li Xiaofeng spread his hands at Jiang Xueying, his face full of helplessness, and said, "Xueying, you've seen it too. Boss Cao is determined to go down this dark path, and there's nothing I can do to persuade him!"

Jiang Xueying said with a displeased look, "Dapeng, since you insist on doing this, then you should handle your own affairs and stop bothering my brother."

"Xueying, I didn't mean to involve your brother, I just wanted him to do me a small favor..."

"Come on you!"

At this moment, Li Xiaofeng stood up, yawned, and said, "You guys keep arguing, I have to go back now, see you another day!"

After saying that, Li Xiaofeng left the Jiang family's villa, drove off in his car.
