Rebirth of Bloody Romance

Zhou Xiaobai saw all of this, sat down next to him, and teased, "Yuemin, have you become a bad person now? You still say that others are cunning, but I think you are more cunning than anyone else. Did you use the same trick on me in the past?"

Zhong Yuemin raised a bitter smile, turned his head and looked at Zhou Xiaobai, and said seriously, "Wife, I swear to God. I am sincere to you. Heaven and earth can bear witness to that!"

No matter whether it was true or not, Zhou Xiaobai smiled like a flower after hearing it.

Seeing Zhou Xiaobai's smile, Zhong Yuemin continued, "Wife, as for Du Weidong's grandson, you don't understand. The business world is a battlefield. Although he and I were buddies before, but now? Not necessarily."

Zhou Xiaobai heard the helplessness and fatigue in Zhong Yuemin's words. She gently leaned over, stroked Zhong Yuemin's shoulders and comforted him. "Yuemin, don't be too tired. Winning and losing in business are common. Don't let these trivial matters affect our lives."

Zhong Yuemin nodded gratefully, with tenderness in his eyes. "I know that with your support, I don't care about anything else."

When the little girl heard that she was not mentioned, she quickly reminded him, "Dad, I'm here too! I support you too."

"Yes, and my little cotton-padded jacket." Zhou Xiaobai and the little girl laughed after hearing this.

Three days later, Zhong Yuemin finally met Du Weidong. He smiled apologetically and said, "Weidong, I'm sorry. I've been too busy lately."

Du Weidong's mouth twitched. Although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still had a smile on his face. "It's okay. I'm not in a hurry."

"Weidong! What do you want to talk to me about?"

Du Weidong's mouth curled up slightly when he heard this familiar voice. He looked at the pretentious man in front of him and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. Zhong Yuemin, the unruly and fearless guy in the past, has now learned to be hypocritical and conceal.

"Yuemin, can you really invest 200 million US dollars?" Du Weidong deliberately tested.

Zhong Yuemin did not answer immediately, but stared at Du Weidong with his deep eyes. When he exchanged glances with Li Wenbo, Li Wenbo took out a checkbook from his bag.

"Mr. Du, this is a check from HSBC." Li Wenbo said calmly.

Du Weidong took the check, which clearly showed the amount of $200 million. At this moment, he understood. Zhong Yuemin had not changed, he just learned how to hide his true face.

"Okay, in that case, we'll have a pleasant cooperation." Du Weidong said with a smile.

Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "Wenbo, I'll leave the rest to you."

"Okay Mr. Zhong."

The two smiled at each other, and everything was said without words. They both knew that this was just the beginning, and greater challenges and opportunities were waiting for them.

The next day, the sun shone through the clouds onto the busy streets. Ermaozi and Houerpu arrived as promised, followed by two expressionless strangers, one of whom was tall and burly, named Xie Yongkang; the other seemed calm and reserved, named Zhang Jiandang.

"Yuemin, these are the two buddies we introduced to you."

Ermaozi pointed at Xie Yongkang and Zhang Jiandang and said, "They were both like us, children of the compound. We can give them any errands we need in the future."

Zhong Yuemin looked at the two men intently. Xie Yongkang was a big man with a simple and honest look on his face, while Zhang Jiandang was thin and capable, with a cunning gleam in his eyes.

"Brother Yuemin, from now on, you can leave all the work to me."

"Brother Yuemin, I have admired you for a long time..."

Zhong Yuemin interrupted the two people. "Do your job well in the future."

"Okay bro."

On the day when Hou Erpi and his friends set out, they asked Zhong Yuemin, "Yuemin, what are we going to do when we get to Japan?"

Zhong Yuemin smiled slightly and said mysteriously, "One is real estate. You can set up a real estate company. The other is to go long on the stock market with leverage."

Monkey Butt was a little puzzled. "Leveraging and going long on real estate and the stock market, this sounds complicated."

Zhong Yuemin smiled. "It's not complicated, it just requires some patience and vision. Real estate requires buying land, building houses, and selling them, while leveraged long positions in the stock market are to buy stocks through borrowing funds to earn more profits. Wenbo understands these, so listen to his advice when the time comes."

Li Wenbo quickly replied, "No problem, Mr. Zhong."

Monkey Butt was still a little confused. "It sounds like it's very risky."

Zhong Yuemin nodded in agreement. "Yes, risks do exist. You should study hard when you get there. As long as you have enough experience and vision, the risks are controllable. After all, high risk means high returns!"

After hearing this, Monkey Butt asked one last question: "How long will I stay in Japan?"

Zhong Yuemin thought for a moment and replied, "It depends on the situation. If everything goes well, we can stay in Japan for a few years. If you encounter any problems, you can always return home."

"Okay, I understand. Yuemin, let's go then."

"Goodbye, Mr. Zhong."

"Yuemin, come visit Japan when you have time."

"Okay, have a safe trip." Looking at their backs as they left, Zhong Yuemin thought to himself: The layout for Japan begins today.

The sunlight shines through the antique window lattice, onto Zheng Tiancheng's weathered face. He sits in the corner of the antique shop, stroking an exquisite jade in his hand, as if recalling the past. This antique shop is the place he has found with great effort, and it is also his hope for the future.

After Ermaozi and Houerpu left, Zheng Tiancheng found this store. There was a large flow of people here, and there was a mysterious atmosphere that attracted him. Whenever night fell, Zheng Tiancheng would always patrol the store alone, listening to the silent antiques telling stories of the past.

"Yuemin, I'm going to move out from here and live inside the store."

"Ah? Why?"

"It's so convenient! I don't have to run back and forth anymore."

"Okay then." Seeing that he really wanted to move out, Zhong Yuemin nodded in agreement, and Zheng Tiancheng moved out of the house.

The sun was blazing, and the heat was rolling, as if he was in a steamer. Zhong Yuemin hid under the shade of a tree at home, holding a bowl of iced green bean soup in his hands, but he couldn't stop the sweat from dripping down his cheeks.

"This damn weather is so hot that it's unbearable." Zhong Yuemin muttered, and suddenly thought of the secret room in his back garden. Wasn't it an ice cellar? Would it be cooler if he went in?

Zhong Yuemin suddenly realized that he had forgotten an important thing - he had not yet told his wife this secret. He began to imagine his wife's reaction after she found out, would she be surprised or blamed?

Thinking of this, Zhong Yuemin said to Zhou Xiaobai and Chen Yijun, "Xiaobai, Mom, let me take you to a place." Zhong Yuemin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile.

"Dad, why didn't you call me?" The little girl suddenly jumped out from the side, pouting with a look of grievance.

Zhong Yuemin picked up the little girl and pinched her nose lovingly. "Dad may forget anyone, but he will never forget my little cotton-padded jacket."

"Hehe...Daddy, it's itchy, itchy." The little girl giggled, avoiding her father's teasing.

"Why are you teasing her in such a hot day? Where is she going to take us mysteriously?" Zhou Xiaobai interrupted the fight between the father and daughter with a smile, turned his gaze to Zhong Yuemin, waiting for his answer.

Zhong Yuemin kept it a secret. "You'll know when you get there."

"Yuemin, stop keeping us in suspense and tell us now." Chen Yijun said with a smile.

"Okay, follow me."

Zhong Yuemin brought Zhou Xiaobai and Chen Yijun to the back garden. It was the season when lotus flowers were in full bloom. The lotus flowers in the pond were vying for beauty and the scenery was pleasant.

"Yuemin, why did you bring us here?" Zhou Xiaobai asked curiously.

"Look, aren't these lotus flowers beautiful?" Zhong Yuemin said, pointing at the lotus flowers.

"Beauty is beautiful, we already knew that."

Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "You see, although these lotus flowers grow in the mud, they can bloom such beautiful flowers. This is the embodiment of their tenacity and indomitable spirit. We often encounter various difficulties and setbacks in our lives, but as long as we are as tenacious and courageous as the lotus flowers, we will be able to overcome all difficulties and usher in a bright future."

Zhou Xiaobai said jokingly, "Yuemin, my mother is a university teacher. Why are you showing off in front of Guan Gong?"

"Haha... I'm just kidding you guys, don't take it seriously. Pretty ladies, cute little princesses, please keep your eyes open, because the time to witness the miracle is coming."

In the sunlight, Zhong Yuemin walked to the wooden stake and turned it vigorously. Suddenly, there was a creaking sound, and the ground began to tremble slightly. A huge circular millstone slowly moved, as if it was awakened after sleeping for thousands of years.

Xiao Shihua, the innocent little girl, jumped up excitedly after seeing this scene, "Dad, it moved, it moved! Dad, you are so awesome." Her voice was full of admiration and joy for her father.

Chen Yijun and Zhou Xiaobai were stunned. They had never thought that there was a secret room in the backyard. This secret room was hidden so deeply that if Zhong Yuemin hadn't brought them here, they would never have been discovered.

Zhong Yuemin looked at the slowly opening entrance to the secret room and took a deep breath. "Let's go down and take a look." He carried the little girl and went down first, followed by Chen Yijun and Zhou Xiaobai.

The secret room was completely dark, with only a faint light coming in from the entrance. Xiao Shihua buried her face in Zhong Yuemin's chest. "Dad, it's so dark! I'm a little scared."

"Daddy, can you turn on the light?"

"Yeah!"

Zhong Yuemin turned on the repaired lamp, and a soft beam of light illuminated the dim room. Xiao Shihua, who was curled up in his arms, felt the warmth of the light, and she carefully slid down from Zhong Yuemin's body.

"Wow, Dad, it's so cool here!" Xiao Shihua shouted excitedly. She looked around curiously, with a glimmer of novelty in her eyes.

Zhou Xiaobai looked at the scene in front of her and suddenly realized. "Yuemin, it turns out that you moved all these antiques here!"

Chen Yijun was stunned. It was the first time she saw so many antiques. She couldn't help but exclaimed, "Where did all these antiques come from?"

Zhong Yuemin replied calmly, "Mom, these are collected from the waste collection."

"Collecting junk?"

Zhong Yuemin explained, "The scrap collection business is actually quite interesting. You can get in touch with all kinds of people and things. Last year, these things could be sold for money, but now it's not possible."

Chen Yijun sighed. "Yuemin, you have found so many bargains! You have good vision."

Zhong Yuemin smiled. "Mom, you can't say that. The main reason is that everyone is afraid and no one dares to accept it. The most important thing is that no one has much money."

"There are so many things. Be careful next time and don't let everyone in."

"To be honest, I don't understand these things. Mom, I think you know a lot about them. Why don't you take care of these things from now on!"

Zhong Yuemin saw his little cotton-padded jacket and shouted, "Come here, girl. Daddy will show you something fun."

The little girl ran over happily. "Dad, what are we playing?"

"Girls, watch out!" Zhong Yuemin smiled mysteriously and gently pushed a seemingly ordinary wall. Suddenly, with a creaking sound, the wall slowly moved to the side, revealing a stone door.

The little girl standing by opened her mouth in shock, as if she couldn't believe her eyes. Chen Yijun and Zhou Xiaobai also widened their eyes, looking surprised. Zhou Xiaobai mustered up his courage, stepped forward and pushed open the stone door, and a faint light shone through from behind the door.

The little girl's curiosity was instantly ignited. She closed the stone door for a while, then opened it again, enjoying it. In her excitement, she shouted, "Dad, it's so fun!"

"This...how is this possible?" Chen Yijun exclaimed.

Zhou Xiaobai also had a look of disbelief on her face. She walked around the stone door twice but still couldn't find the joint between the stone door and the wall, as if the stone door and the wall were one.

"Yuemin, how did you discover this mechanism?"

"Uncle Zheng told me. He seemed to have known it for a long time."

"The ancients were so clever. This mechanism is so ingeniously designed that if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it even if you kill me." Chen Yijun exclaimed.

Time, like quicksand, slips through your fingers without leaving a trace. The happy time of summer vacation is fleeting. The summer sunshine shines on every corner of the campus, but Zhou Xiaobai's face is a little nervous. The summer vacation is about to end, and the welcome event she carefully planned is about to begin.

"Yuemin, what do you think of these preparations?" Zhou Xiaobai asked, his eyes full of anticipation.

Zhong Yuemin smiled and said, "It's perfect. I think the freshmen will like it. This slogan, together with the slogan 'Shaping a new trend, being civilized, starts with me'."

Zhou Xiaobai smiled. "I feel relieved when you say that. I will make some preparations and recruit more people. We will start welcoming new students tomorrow."

"Wife, you go ahead and do your work. I'm leaving now."

Zhong Yuemin, Xie Yongkang and Zhang Jiantang were plotting something in a small restaurant. Xie Yongkang and Zhang Jiantang were curious but did not dare to ask more questions because they knew Zhong Yuemin's style of doing things.

Zhong Yuemin's sharp eyes first swept back and forth between the two of them, and then he slowly spoke, his tone revealing an unprecedented seriousness.

"I have a mission for you two."

"Brother Zhong, you say." The two men knew that the time had come to test them.

"Tomorrow, the student union of Yanda University will go to the train station to pick up this year's freshmen. You two should find a way to find a reporter to discover this matter and publish it in tomorrow's newspaper. Do you two have any questions?"

Xie Yongkang and Zhang Jiandang looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. They knew that there were often unknown secrets behind Zhong Yuemin's decisions.

"Brother Zhong, do you hope that the reporter discovered it himself?" Zhang Jiandang asked first.

Zhong Yuemin nodded, with an elusive smile on his face. "Yes, I don't want too many people to know about this. You just need to guide the reporters to discover this matter, and as for the rest, let things develop naturally."

"Brother Zhong, just rest assured that you can leave this matter to us two brothers."

"Yes, we know a lot of people in the newspaper, and we will definitely get it done for you."

"Remember, be natural."

"Brother, just wait and see."
