The first rays of sunlight penetrate the clouds in the early morning, bathing all things in life. A gentle breeze caresses my face, as if mixed with a light, moist breath of youthful energy.
I walked into the lobby, carrying my safe, and ran into Ye Qian, dressed in a light blue denim jacket. She beamed at me, a bit dashing and playful. This enigmatic older lolita, ever-changing, might just dress you up in a bohemian dress next time. Yet, she remained true to her core: pure, genuine, and effortlessly carefree. Anyone who was around her felt a sense of ease and peace.
Behind her were two girls, aged 25 and 26, wearing gray blazers, matching trousers, and black short-heeled, pointed-toe leather shoes. Both had neatly cropped hair, serious expressions, and a demeanor that exuded a sense of bravery and decisiveness.
I suspect these two women are the legendary secretive Pink Guards, codenamed Phantom, as famous as the Zhongnanhai bodyguards. They're known for their sharp fists and kicks, capable of killing with a flick of the wrist. They're equipped with fully automatic Glock G18Cs, .38 caliber, and have a license to kill!
I was momentarily stunned, then relieved. Ye Qian, with her prestigious status as the daughter of the Ye family or the privileges of a colonel and deputy director of the Secret Service, possessed a distinguished background. Any anomaly was merely ordinary in her eyes; there was really nothing to worry about.
Ye Qian nodded casually and said, "I received your plan last night. I have to start preparing and make some arrangements. I'll go to Hengshan to find you in a few days! This time, Team Ouyang will cooperate with you, right?"
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Qian. I'll wait for you in Hengshan!" I hurriedly thanked her sincerely.
After saying goodbye, Captain Ouyang Yunfei drove off towards Hengshan County. This time, we switched to a white Land Cruiser; the six-wheeled Hummer was too conspicuous, so we reserved it for Ye Qian. The nine members of Ouyang's team had gone to the villa in advance, each assigned their own position. Captain Ouyang and I chatted along the way, leisurely heading towards our destination.
Once upon a time, my life's goal was simply to earn enough money while I was still young, then travel extensively with Bai Ying and our two children. If I ever grew tired, I'd find a picturesque mountain village to settle down in. I'd savor the tranquility and peace of the evening mist and the moonlit night. Life is short, but warmth is the best!
But beautiful visions are more likely to be dashed, and even fate will openly tear you apart with despair and plunge you deep into the quagmire.
The hot spring resort was still bustling with visitors. Even in this off-season, there was still a constant stream of people, chatting, greeting, and holding hands. Upon closer inspection, I learned that the resort was hosting the wedding banquet for the daughter of Wu Juekun, the deputy secretary and mayor of Longshan Town.
It seems that Hao Laogou once served as the mayor of Longshan Town, and now he is the deputy mayor of Hengshan County, although he is in charge of poverty alleviation and family planning. After all, he is a superior, so it is only natural that his colleagues will show their support!
Ignoring the clamorous atmosphere, I called He Xiaoyue, the nominal manager of the villa, and asked her to arrange a room.
After receiving my call, she couldn't fathom why I, whom she respectfully addressed as "Young Master," had suddenly returned to the villa. But she was a cautious and careful person, a woman whose years of on-the-spot management had cultivated a flawless approach. She repeatedly asked me to wait a few minutes, and she immediately rushed to the front desk to arrange our check-in.
A few minutes later, I heard the quick click of high heels, and a beautiful young woman, whose makeup, whether light or heavy, seemed to be perfectly balanced, appeared before my eyes. She was about 32, tall and slender, with a touch of the elegant charm that only young women possess. Her black, smooth hair was tied back, her eyebrows were delicate, her eyes were smiling, her lips were like flames, and her cheeks were rosy pink. Her delicate makeup, paired with a tailored black business suit, a lace-trimmed white shirt, and purple seven-centimeter heels, accentuated her naturally gentle temperament with a touch of brilliance.
He Xiaoyue hurried over, showing her respect for me. As for whether it was true or false, there was no need to dwell on it!
As the manager of the hot spring resort, she's quite busy. Today, the Longshan Town leader's wedding banquet is being held at the resort, so naturally, she has to handle everything meticulously. Even her vibrant makeup today is fitting for the occasion!
He Xiaoyue had a poor education and no professional hotel management courses, so she maintained a crude, primitive management style. While the hotel appeared bustling with customers and luxurious, it had actually been operating at a slight loss for several years. With the country's anti-corruption efforts intensifying, if the hotel continued to operate in a stagnant manner, a bleak future was foreseeable.
Wang Shiyun has also hit a development bottleneck. Its product's added value has not been fully developed, and its sales are saturated with thin profits. Promotion, packaging, and product innovation are all lacking. The company's profits are almost entirely dependent on government tax breaks, a situation characterized by exhaustion and a lack of vitality.
He Xiaoyue took two steps at a time and squeezed in front of me, and asked respectfully: "Young Master! Are you planning to stay here long-term or do you have other arrangements?" There was a mystery in the question.
I looked at her calmly and said, "That's not necessarily true, but I guess it won't last long!" This was a meaningful answer, left for those involved to savor slowly.
He Xiaoyue nodded in understanding and quickly and swiftly booked two upper rooms for Captain Ouyang and me, located next door to each other. Weirui Garden, located at the northern end of the villa, is a tranquil and pleasant place. Originally reserved for the villa's own guests and not open to the public, it boasts elegant decor and luxurious décor, with accommodation standards comparable to a presidential suite in a four-star hotel. Li Xuanshi would often stay at Weirui Garden for a night when there were large business events at the villa, but her accommodation was called the Annex.
After checking in, I took my luggage and headed to my room. The so-called presidential suite is nothing more than grand, luxurious, exquisitely elegant, fully furnished, and with dedicated staff, offering guests the ultimate in luxury. Naturally, it's expensive, and the expense is substantial. All of this didn't matter to me; someone would naturally waive it for me.
10 minutes after I checked into the villa, Li Xuanshi, who was in the Hao family compound, received a call from He Xiaoyue.
Upon learning of my unexpected stay at the villa, Li Xuanshi was overcome with mixed emotions. Her hand, holding the phone, trembled slightly as she uttered only four words: "I understand!" Long after the call, she slumped down on a mahogany bench at the side of the hall, her expression forlorn and dejected, her face bleak.
What was supposed to come finally came, she muttered silently in her heart. Suddenly, she felt weak all over and had no desire to live!
Xu Lin happened to be beside her. Seeing her expression, she seemed lost in thought and asked hurriedly, "Xuanshi! What's going on? Who's calling?"
Li Xuanshi seemed exhausted, slumped against the bench for a long moment, her brows slightly furrowed, her expression solemn. It took a long time for her to recover, and she slowly opened her dark, abyssal eyes. She looked at Xu Lin, her voice filled with sorrow and endless sadness, saying, "He Xiaoyue said Jingjing moved into the villa this afternoon!"
Xu Lin was startled when she heard this. After a moment's reflection, she continued, "Xuanshi! Do you think Jingjing's purpose for coming this time is really that serious?"
Li Xuanshi did not respond, but weakly waved to the babysitter standing beside her, asking her to take her seven-year-old daughter Hao Xuan upstairs to sleep.
Then she turned to Xu Lin and replied, "Sister Lin! I raised Jingjing for twenty years and I know his temper well. As his mother, I've felt so guilty towards him over the years. He must be here to collect his debt!"
Xu Lin sighed softly, her face calm as water, and her charming peach blossom eyes no longer seemed so amorous.
Sometimes I think about it, and I feel like crying, but I can't even cry. How could such a good hand have been wrecked in just a few years? Li Xuanshi, after all, was both talented and beautiful, having taught for twenty years, and had been intelligent since childhood, and how could she have chosen one wrong move and ended up losing the whole game?
His thoughts were in a mess, and after a long time he came to his senses, he sighed softly: "Sister Lin! This is all my own fault. If Jingjing wants revenge, I will accept it! At this point, what compensation can I give him? Money? He originally had a share. Women? If he wants to have sex with any of the women here, just follow him. As long as he calms down, even if he wants to have sex, it's not impossible! We are all flesh and blood. If he wants revenge on Yingying, no one can say anything!"
Xu Lin was startled at the words, coming back to her senses to carefully ponder the vagueness. Suddenly, her eyebrows twitched, and she stared at Li Xuanshi meaningfully, "Are you planning to take such a risky move?"
Li Xuanshi didn't respond, but continued, "The Hao family's decline was inevitable, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. Sister Lin, you're well aware of what kind of people Hao Jianghua and Xiaotian are. To say they're useless is still a good thing. Husband and wife are in the same boat, but I became the owner of the cargo, and Hao Jianghua became the captain. Sister Lin, you, Shiyun, Xiaowei, Xiaoyue, and Tongtong are all passengers on the boat, ready to cross the shore or jump off at any time. Even Yingying, at least she grabbed a lifebuoy to avoid drowning in the river. Only Hao Jianghua and I can't get off the boat!"
Xu Lin's eyes flashed as she looked directly at Li Xuanshi and asked, "Have you ever considered using a different ship to ship the goods?"
Li Xuanshi's eyes were a little vague and she said nothing. The crystal chandelier in the hall scattered a bright halo of light, colorful and blurry.
At 6 o'clock sharp, the waiter brought a delicious meal with a dining cart. I seldom drink, and it is even more bitter when I am drunk.
After dinner, I lit a Baisha cigarette. Amidst the lingering smoke, my thoughts easily drifted into memories. I used to travel extensively for Bai Ying and my family, constantly busy both domestically and internationally. But I texted or called my wife almost every day. These subtle expressions of warm concern became a habit. Love, too, needs to be expressed! While it's not the kind of deep, unwavering love or the kind of obsession where a day apart feels like three years, my longing for her never ceases! And now, Bai Ying and I haven't seen each other for over a year, and I don't know where she is. However, the unforgettable longing I once had for her has vanished. I don't know when it began, but she has become invisible in my dreams. Hate is torture, but also a farewell, a farewell to love!
Just as I was feeling drowsy from my wandering thoughts, I thought I heard the doorbell ring. Although it was still early, I knew I had no friends at the villa or in Haojiagou.
No need to worry, just move and open the door. Outside the door is the charming young woman who has arrived as promised. She has heavy makeup and is very beautiful, but I don't know to whom her feelings belong.
I'd waited so long for her to finally come, which was all I expected. There was no appointment, no need for one at all, of course she would come!
Because someone is worried!
He Xiaoyue smiled charmingly and walked into the suite with a professional demeanor. Still wearing her fitted suit, she held a jar in her hand. She raised her hand and said, "I brought this for the young master!"
As she spoke, she took a kettle from the coffee table and boiled pure water from Wudalianchi. Once it was boiling, she deftly and quickly removed two white porcelain cups, rinsed them, opened the container, removed the lustrous, plump tea leaves, placed them in the cups, and poured water to brew. Instantly, the cups were filled with a fragrant aroma, and the tea buds gradually opened, like crystal jade, refreshing and refreshing. Even before the tea was even drunk, the lingering aftertaste was already there!
Her tea ceremony movements were done in one go. I didn't understand it, so I didn't comment on it. I just felt that it was very methodical and at least looked decent.
He Xiaoyue invited me to sit down and enjoy tea together. It wasn't my intention to be pretentious, but it was just a beautiful woman putting on a show. I might as well fall into her trap. Ultimately, it's either dancing with the wolf or trying to get the skin of the tiger. All I have to do is wait and see! Time is a good thing. With enough patience, the answers you need will appear.
He Xiaoyue's transformation has been remarkable, from a penniless village girl to the powerful resort manager she is today, her career reaching its peak. While her resume isn't particularly impressive, her years of unwavering perseverance in creating a life of freedom and beauty are truly admirable.
"What do you think of this Biluochun tea, Young Master?" He Xiaoyue asked calmly, her beautiful eyes fixed on the side as she spoke leisurely, "Last time Shiyun went to the Zhejiang Hangzhou Expo, knowing that Madam loves tea, she specially brought back two cans of top-quality Biluochun. Madam has always treasured it and has been reluctant to drink it. When she heard that Young Master was coming to the villa, she immediately sent someone to deliver a can. This mother-son bond is truly enviable!"
As she rambled on, even bringing up the so-called mother-son relationship between me and Li Xuanshi, I couldn't help but frown and ask in a deep voice, "She asked you to come and say this to me?"
He Xiaoyue was startled, her heart aching. Even a fool could tell that the relationship between us mother and son had become so strained. Although Bai Ying had disappeared without a trace, at least we hadn't divorced yet, and I was still the Bai family's legitimate son-in-law.
When a common man gets angry, blood splatters five steps away. And what's more, behind this vengeful common man, Bai Xingjian and Tong Jiahui stand tall. Everyone has selfish motives when it comes to self-interest, but what He Xiaoyue faces is far more than simply profit. She drugged the Bai family's daughter and son-in-law, and although it was Hao Jianghua who forced them, the slightest unease she felt immediately dissipated when she received the generous financial reward. It's a common wisdom to let a friend die before the poor.
He Xiaoyue suddenly became a little nervous, and in her trance, even the most delicious tea had lost its taste.
"Young Master! You should know that Madam has many informants at the tea oil company and the villa. As soon as you showed up at the villa today, many people naturally became alert. Even if I didn't report the situation to Madam, the news wouldn't be hidden for long!"
Her explanation was meaningless to me. Even though it was human nature to shift the blame, for someone with ulterior motives, I had to strike back with all my might and deliver the heaviest blow possible to crush them in one fell swoop.
I already knew He Xiaoyue's background like the back of my hand. So, without the slightest hesitation, I told her in detail how she had traveled all the way from Yuanling to Changsha to seek refuge with He Kun, and how He Kun had forced her to sneak into Haojiagou to harm Lao Gou and Li Xuanshi.
At the end, I said slowly and meaningfully, "Your son should have no difficulty living in the rented house at No. 118 Jinxiu Garden in Changsha, right?" Just a few words, like the claws of a deadly demon, grasped her weak spot in one blow.
In an instant, He Xiaoyue screamed "Ah" and stood up. Her face turned pale instantly, and her whole beautiful and attractive body began to tremble. Her two bright and dazzling red lips trembled uncontrollably. She was so frightened that she couldn't utter a word.
Satisfied with the results, I sneered inwardly. My handsome face was replaced with an expression of surprise and worry. I asked her with concern, "Are you okay?"
False greeting is still a greeting. At least it represents my sincerity. A vengeful cheetah baring its fangs, how could it possibly return hungry? As for how He Xiaoyue, now the prey, feels, that's not something I need to focus on!
Is that not the strong preying on the weak? If the roles were reversed, I would be the one who would suffer a fate worse than death!
He Xiaoyue suddenly rushed over and hugged me tightly, begging me with tears in her eyes to let her son go, saying that she would work like a slave for me and do whatever I said!
I deeply felt the sensation of her plump, soft breasts pressing against my chest, the delicate fragrance of a young woman wafting into my nostrils. Her hot tears quickly soaked the white shirt on my chest, dripping down and occasionally leaving wet marks. The tangled stalk of my penis, which hadn't eaten meat in over a year, swelled in the wind, suddenly becoming erect, and acting inappropriately like a hooligan.
I must be resolute in my revenge. My body instantly felt awkward, unable to break free from her tight embrace. Like a mother animal protecting her cub, I suddenly felt that she seemed a bit ferocious and obsessive.
After a moment, she seemed to notice something was wrong. She glanced at me with her tearful eyes, and then reached down with a soft and slender hand, grabbed the dragon and hit its vital point.
I couldn't help but let out a breath, but I didn't resist her teasing. My penis instantly rose to its full height, towering proudly and resolutely. As if afraid I'd regret it, He Xiaoyue quickly squatted down and hurriedly unbuttoned my trousers. With a fierce force, she pulled my underwear off along with them. I had no choice but to sit on the sofa, lifting my legs to help her completely remove the fabric covering my lower body.
He Xiaoyue's bright, red, and swollen eyes glanced at my penis, which stood erect amidst the dense, black grass. With a slight moment of surprise, she blurted out, "That's not small at all. A penis at least 18 centimeters long. Any woman would treasure it. Not only is she so ungrateful, she even calls you a useless toothpick. What a slut!"
I immediately understood what she meant. Before, Bai Ying had indulged in lust with Hao Laogou. To satisfy Hao Laogou and herself, she deliberately degraded my penis during the pleasure. Bai Ying truly deserved the title of slut!
Anger rose in my heart, and I held He Xiaoyue's head and pressed it against my crotch. He Xiaoyue immediately understood and took the initiative to lick my thick meat pole and the goose egg-sized glans.
