He's obviously the villain, but the heroine is all for him?

"mom?"

Xia Yuwei pushed open the door behind her at some point. She looked at her sobbing mother and saw the notebook in her hand. She immediately knew what her mother was sad about.

She had never met her father. Her mother said they met 20 years ago. At that time, her grandfather was still alive. When she was a child, she asked him what her father was like because Xia Hui refused to tell her.

Every time this happened, her grandfather would look ahead with a look of nostalgia on his face, then frown and think.

"Your father, he is a... a very enthusiastic young man."

"So what does he look like?"

"Ahem, just like a normal person."

It was as good as saying nothing. As a child, Xia Yuwei didn't get any useful answer at all.

As she grew up, she gradually learned from the gossip of her neighbors that her mother had rashly married someone else, and that man had run away, leaving her pregnant. Xia Hui did not choose to abort the baby, but gave birth to it and raised it.

My grandfather later died of illness, leaving only my mother.

Until one day, when she was curious and rummaging through the drawer, she found this notebook.

When her mother saw her holding the notebook, her usually gentle face suddenly changed color. She almost immediately snatched the notebook back and scolded her harshly.

Xia Yuwei had never seen her mother like this before, and she was scared and cried. Xia Hui also felt guilty, so she hugged her daughter and comforted her for a while. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Later she found out that this was a gift from her father to her mother, and he even wrote a sentence on the title page.

To my most lovely Xiaohui - Autumn 2003.

"Yuwei?"

Xia Hui turned around to look at her daughter, quickly wiped the tears from her face, and choked up and said, "Why aren't you sleeping? Why are you running into my room?"

"Mom, are you thinking about Dad again?"

Xia Hui pursed her lips and finally nodded.

Xia Yuwei walked behind her mother and hugged her from behind: "Mom, Dad will definitely come back."

"Okay, stop comforting me. After all these years, I already knew that scumbag wouldn't come back." Xia Hui forced a smile. "I haven't told Mom yet. What are you doing here? Are you deliberately trying to embarrass Mom?"

"Oh no, I just feel like I need to tell you about what happened tonight..."

In the study of the Bai family villa.

Ma Xuan calmly told Bai Shuyao what happened tonight. Bai Shuyao wiped the scratches on Ling Yun's hands with an alcohol cotton ball with concern. When she raised her eyes again, a fierce look appeared.

"How dare you touch my precious son? This Wang guy must have had enough!"

"I heard that his father's name is Wang Tianba. Mom, do you know who he is?"

"Wang Tianba?" Bai Shuyao frowned. She usually couldn't remember such minor characters.

"Mr. Bai, Wang Tianba is the boss of Bamu Building Materials Company." Ma Xuan behind her reminded her.

"Oh, it's him." Bai Shuyao finally had some impression of him. "Xiaoxuan, please organize Wang Tianba's information and send it to me."

"Yes."

After Ma Xuan left, she held Ling Yun's hand in her arms, allowing Ling Yun to feel the long-lost warmth.

"Xiaoyun, do you want your mother to help you vent your anger?"

"It's not necessary for you to do it yourself, Mom. Let me do it."

"Tell me, what do you want to do?" Bai Shuyao looked at him with interest.

"Isn't their family in the building materials business? I want to make something of it..."

As she was speaking, Ma Xuan had already returned to the study with several pages of A4 paper that she had collected through special means.

Bai Shuyao looked carefully at the members of the Wang family. When she turned to the photo of a beautiful woman, she exclaimed softly and pulled out her file information sheet.

"Oh, it's actually a little vixen born to an old vixen!" She looked at Chu Yao's photo with disdain. "But this daughter is too cheap. She actually married an unknown small boss... But it's good that she was married off in a formal way, unlike her mother who has no official status!"

Chapter 8 Vixen

"Vixen?"

Ling Yun looked at Chu Yao's photo. Her photo should have been cut out from a wedding photo. She was wearing a white shirt, with a red background wall behind her and a bright smile.

The woman has a gentle gaze and sits upright. Judging from the photo alone, it is easy to associate her with the words "good wife and mother".

Bai Shuyao noticed Ling Yun's gaze. She covered the photo and warned Ling Yun earnestly, "Xiao Yun, don't be fooled by this woman's pretty face. She's a badass at heart!"

"Mom, just tell me what's going on with her."

"It's related to your Uncle Chu."

"Ling Yun thought of that big, strong man, Chu Chunqiu, who is also the current head of the Chu family.

"The thing is like this..."

As the capital of Dragon Nation, the Imperial City is home to numerous aristocratic families. However, being a noble family doesn't just mean having a bit of money; one must integrate into this circle and gain recognition from other families.

The Chu family's history can be traced back over 500 years, making them considered quite long-lived even among the aristocratic families of the imperial capital. Generations of their family have practiced the Chu Family Heart Method, a collection of techniques and martial arts accumulated over many years, comparable to the Fulong Heart Method.

Joining the Chu family or a branch of the Chu family only allowed one to learn the basics, which were simplified from the general principles of the mind method, supplemented by training in killing moves in the military. But even so, it was still a force that could not be underestimated.

When members of the Chu family reach a certain age, they will be sent to the army for training. Those who are capable will stay there, while those who are not will come back to build the family. They also have a good relationship with other families.

Ling Yun's aunt Bai Yiyi was extremely talented, and the nearly 100-year-old old man of the Chu family was once a comrade-in-arms with Mr. Bai, so the Chu family made an exception and passed on the complete secret method to Bai Yiyi.

It is also because of this that Bai Shuyao was able to know some things inside the Chu family.

Chu Chunqiu is in his 40s and in the prime of his life. Everything he has done since taking over the Chu family from his father has been admired by outsiders.

He did not have many stains in his life, but at the age of 19, he added a bold stroke to his resume.

At that time, Chu Chunqiu was full of vigor and ambition, and his family had found him a wife of equal status. According to the rules of the family, no matter how powerful his in-laws were, he could still marry multiple wives, but the first one had to be the other woman.

But Chu Chunqiu was young and frivolous, and liked to go out and have fun. He actually met a vixen while dancing in a nightclub.

He couldn't get married until he was 22, but he became a father at 20.

After knowing this, his fiancée's family was naturally dissatisfied and insisted on seeking justice from Chu Chunqiu's father.

Chu Chunqiu was put in solitary confinement, but that vixen was about to give birth and could not be dealt with at will.

Fortunately, she gave birth to a daughter, who would not receive much attention. The old lady of the Chu family took the child for a test and found that it was indeed the blood of the Chu family. She then secretly raised the girl and her mother in a private house.

Chu Chunqiu's fiancée had never been fond of him, and now this incident had made her feel even more humiliated. The Chu family had paid a considerable price to prevent the conflict between the two families from deepening, and they had barely managed to maintain this relationship.

But later, no one knew whether it was because of the gift, but Foxy got cancer and passed away soon after, leaving behind her 14-year-old daughter, Chu Yao.

Chu Yao grew up in such an environment, and her values ​​were probably distorted by her mother a long time ago.

Chu Chunqiu had also restrained his thoughts since this incident and compromised for the position of head of the family. He didn't hate his daughter, but he didn't like her very much either. He sent her money regularly so that she could live a life that was neither poor nor rich.

Chu Yao was a student who surpassed her mother. Her mother wasn't very good-looking, but she was quite charming enough to seduce Chu Chunqiu at that time. She inherited the Chu family's excellent genes and was very beautiful and intelligent from a young age. She had excellent academic performance and joined Wang Tianba's company after graduating at the age of 22.

The following content in the file also states that she married Wang Tianba after his wife died in a car accident.

"What is this little vixen thinking? She's a Chu family member after all. If I were Chu Chunqiu, I'd probably be furious. My daughter actually married an old man who's almost as old as me."

Bai Shuyao looked disgusted, then crumpled up her file page and threw it into the trash can.

"Mom, do you think Chu Yao can be one of the breakthrough points?"

"Ok?"

Bai Shuyao glanced at Ling Yun and said, "Xiao Yun, do you want to bribe her?"

"According to what Mom said, an unwelcome illegitimate child, whose father doesn't like her very much, yet has ambitions that don't match her abilities. So... wouldn't it be easier to find a sucker to use as a springboard?"

"No matter how stupid Wang Tianba is, he won't hand over the company's power to her so quickly."

"So I think she must be thinking about how to get money from Wang Tianba. Isn't this the right time?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Shuyao took out her cell phone and dialed a number.

"This is Joanna's phone number. If you need anything, just call her directly and she will arrange it for you."

"Thanks, Mom."

Ling Yun saved the phone number of Bai Shuyao's secretary.

"Xiao Yun, let me emphasize to you that a woman like Chu Yao has been brainwashed by her vixen mother since she was a child. If you are really interested in her, you can play with her, but don't take it seriously. She is not worthy of entering our Bai family."

"Mom, I just want to take revenge on Wang Hao. What are you thinking?"

"Hmph, what did I think? Don't think I don't know that you're two-timing." Bai Shuyao tapped his forehead. "I haven't even told your sister Xiaohui yet, you bad boy!"

After saying that, she stood up and went back to her room with a twist of her waist.

"Um, Young Master Ling..."

Ma Xuan stood there with her head down, seemingly afraid to look up at him.

"My dear Sister Xuan." Ling Yun gritted his teeth and said, "Are you going to sell me out just like that?"

"It's mainly because Director Bai keeps asking questions, and I... I can't do anything..."

Ling Yun was still very unhappy. He walked up and pressed Ma Xuan's cheek, rubbing it hard.

Ma Xuan wasn't exactly beautiful, but she possessed a fortitude born from her military service. After being rubbed by the young man, she blushed, a rare occurrence, apologized profusely, and finally left the study in a hurry.

"Well, you better confess."

Ling Yun made up his mind, turned off the light in the study, and came to the door of Ye Hui's room.

After hearing the knock on the door, Ye Hui didn't ask who it was, but got out of bed and opened the door.

"Sister Xiaohui, I actually have another one..."

"No need to tell me, I know everything." Ye Hui smiled softly and helped him straighten his collar. "Did you have fun tonight?"

Ling Yun looked at Ye Hui intently, then walked straight in, hooked the door shut with his foot, hugged Ye Hui and kissed her...

The next day, Friday.

There are no classes in the afternoon, which together with the weekend, is equivalent to two and a half days of rest.

After spending a pleasant half day with Xia Yuwei on campus, Ling Yun and Bai Shuyao returned to the Bai family compound in the afternoon and gave Ye Hui two days off.

"Xiao Yun, I have asked Anna to contact Chu Yao."

"Mom, this is still troublesome for you."

"fine."

Ma Xuan was driving the car and the two of them were sitting in the back seat.

Bai Shuyao hugged Ling Yun's arm and rested her head on his shoulder. "Our group's construction company just acquired a piece of land, and naturally Wang Tianba wants to come and get a piece of the pie. He found the general manager of the subsidiary last night, and the two of them got drunk. I transferred that general manager there, and no matter how close he is to Wang Tianba, he wouldn't dare agree to his request until I asked."

"So after returning in the evening, Wang Tianba was also a little angry, but he could only wait for news. And this morning, Qiao Anna contacted Chu Yao and wanted to cooperate with her as the Bai family. What we want is people, and what she wants is money. There is no conflict."

"She agreed?"

"It was surprisingly easy. However, she asked to meet with us privately, and the appointment is tentatively scheduled for the night after tomorrow."

"Okay."

"I'll let Joanna go with you. My flight is the day after tomorrow afternoon."

Ling Yun looked at his beautiful mother beside him and smacked his lips: "You don't want to see her, do you?"

"To be honest, I really don't want to see her." Bai Shuyao didn't make excuses. "I've already bought the plane ticket. She's not worth changing my ticket."

Ling Yun shrugged. Bai Shuyao had the qualifications to say this.

"Xiao Yun, remember what I told you." Bai Shuyao looked up at him, "Don't be fooled by that vixen. Women like her are very promiscuous."

"Okay, Mom, I'll pay attention."

After getting his promise, the beautiful mother felt a little relieved and continued to lean on his shoulder.

An hour later, the car arrived at a mountainside. The entire mountain was the Bai family's private property. Every so often, there were female soldiers standing guard and patrol vehicles—all arranged by Bai Yiyi.

After parking the car, Ling Yun and Bai Shuyao got out. Coming towards them was a woman who looked somewhat like Bai Shuyao.
