Before long, Su Jie heard the sounds of fierce fighting coming from the second floor. He couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly: "I told him to install some soundproofing materials a long time ago, but he just wouldn't listen. It's so annoying!"
Meanwhile, in the capital city...
The old man was laughing heartily, and standing in front of him was Hu Ruoling, who had returned from Hong Kong the day before.
Hu Ruoling originally came to see the old man as soon as she returned to Beijing, but the old man was not in Beijing; he had only returned from the Northeast this afternoon.
Therefore, Hu Ruoling only met the old man today, and the first thing she did after meeting him was to report the situation of the battle in Hong Kong to him.
After hearing about Liu Xiaobao's battle report, the old man was overjoyed.
"Ling'er, you just said that Xiaobao invested 600 billion into the Hong Kong stock market to prop it up without even blinking an eye. Is that an exaggeration?"
Hu Ruoling replied, "There is no exaggeration at all. I was right next to him when he was making the move, and I saw him invest 600 billion without hesitation to buy all the stocks listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, which stabilized the Hong Kong Stock Exchange."
The old man nodded: "Not bad, not bad, I wasn't wrong about this guy, he's definitely not the kind of greedy businessman!"
Seeing the old man praising Liu Xiaobao, Hu Ruoling added another sentence.
"Grandpa Deng, there's more. When I said I wanted to invest the 100 billion yuan I had, he stopped me, saying that the country needed money everywhere and that I had to bring the 100 billion yuan back to build the country!"
The old man was unaware that Hu Ruoling had brought back 100 billion yuan, and upon hearing this, he was slightly taken aback: "What did you say? You brought back 100 billion yuan?"
Hu Ruoling quickly explained, "Yes, you asked me to take 20 billion to help, and when I came back it had become 120 billion. Don't worry, Grandpa Deng, only Mr. Bao and I know about this. Moreover, he specifically told me that if anyone finds out one day, I should say that he donated it to the country personally!"
The old man remained silent for a while before solemnly instructing Hu Ruoling.
"Ling'er, you must never let anyone else know that you brought back a hundred billion, not even your father. Remember this: this money is Xiao Bao's personal donation to you, and it has nothing to do with anything else. Do you understand?"
Although Hu Ruoling is not involved in politics, she has seen and experienced a great deal, so she understands what the old man is worried about.
Hu Ruoling nodded solemnly: "Grandpa Deng, please rest assured, I will never mention this matter to anyone."
Seeing Hu Ruoling's response, the old man didn't continue the topic. Instead, he chuckled and said, "Ling'er, you keep praising Xiaobao in front of me and speaking well of him. Could it be that you've taken a liking to him?"
Hu Ruoling blushed and said reproachfully, "Grandpa Deng, what nonsense are you talking about? Mr. Bao already has a girlfriend, and not just one, but two. He's too much of a womanizer. I would never be interested in him!"
The old man paused for a moment before laughing and saying, "I didn't expect this kid to be such a womanizer. But Ling'er, men, especially capable men, are all a bit womanizers. If you really like him, don't worry about this kind of thing. Anyway, you're not in politics, so you don't have the burden of family relationships. Just find a man who will treat you well!"
"Grandpa Deng, you're really going too far. I'm not talking to you anymore. I've already given the money I brought back from Hong Kong to Uncle Long. I'm leaving now!"
After Hu Ruoling finished speaking, she turned around and ran away with a flushed face.
The old man watched Hu Ruoling leave with a smile, and only after Hu Ruoling's figure completely disappeared from sight did the old man mutter a meaningful remark.
"This little guy is really something else. Not only did he not spend the 20 billion I sent, but he also got Ling'er to bring back 100 billion. The country owes him a huge favor this time!"
Chapter 162 Delivering betrothal gifts to the Zhou family and bringing Zhou Huimin back (Please subscribe)
the next day.
With He Chaoqiong's reminder from yesterday, Liu Xiaobao was busy all morning.
Then, as agreed with Zhou Huimin, at 2 PM, Liu Xiaobao arrived at the Zhou family's house again.
"Hello, uncle and aunt!"
Zhou's mother was quite polite; as soon as she saw Liu Xiaobao, she greeted him, "Xiaobao's here!"
Mr. Zhou probably already knew about what happened yesterday. He was angry that Liu Xiaobao had made unreasonable demands while he was drunk, so his attitude today was not good. He acted as if he didn't even see Liu Xiaobao, watering the flowers by himself and ignoring Liu Xiaobao.
Upon seeing Zhou's father's expression, Liu Xiaobao thought to himself that things were going to get bad. Fearing that Zhou's father might change his mind, he quickly gave an order to Su Jie behind him.
"Su Jie, hurry up and have someone bring in the betrothal gifts I prepared!"
Su Jie understood and immediately turned and walked towards the door. A short while later, Su Jie returned with about ten people carrying cardboard boxes.
Moreover, those ten or so people made more than one trip; they made several trips back and forth.
Liu Xiaobao and Su Jie stacked the cardboard boxes neatly, one by one, until they filled the Zhou family's living room.
Zhou Huimin and her mother watched silently until they saw that the people had finished moving the cardboard boxes. Then, Zhou Huimin asked Liu Xiaobao curiously, "Xiaobao, what did you have them move?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaobao opened the top cardboard box and smiled slightly, saying, "Isn't this to take you to my place? I have to give my uncle and aunt an explanation. These are all the dowry I'm going to give you when I marry you!"
Zhou Huimin and her mother curiously peeked into the cardboard box and immediately discovered that it was full of stacks of banknotes, all in denominations of one thousand Hong Kong dollars.
Zhou's mother pointed in shock at the room full of cardboard boxes and asked Liu Xiaobao, "Xiaobao, are all these cardboard boxes filled with money?"
Liu Xiaobao nodded.
"Yes, Uncle and Aunt, this is the betrothal gift I prepared for Xiaomin. It totals 999,999,999! In addition, there is a villa in Repulse Bay and two cars. The cars are parked outside. Here are the house keys and car keys. Please accept them, Uncle and Aunt!"
As he spoke, Liu Xiaobao took out a few keys and placed them on top of the cardboard boxes.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaobao's words, not only were Zhou's mother and Zhou Huimin stunned, but even Zhou's father stopped pretending not to see Liu Xiaobao.
Mr. Zhou put down the showerhead and came over. He personally opened several cardboard boxes to check them.
After confirming that the cardboard box was indeed full of cash, Mr. Zhou was shocked, but he couldn't help but coldly question Liu Xiaobao: "What do you mean by this? Do you think my Zhou family is going to sell our daughter?"
Liu Xiaobao quickly explained.
"Uncle and Aunt, please don't misunderstand. I brought these things here today for several reasons. First, to show that I sincerely want to marry Xiaomin; this is the proper etiquette and sincerity. Second, to prove to you that I am capable of providing Xiaomin with a good life and will not let her suffer, so you can entrust her to me with peace of mind. Third, it is also to show outsiders the elegance of the Zhou family's daughter and to bring honor to the Zhou family!"
Hearing Liu Xiaobao's words, Zhou's father's expression softened considerably.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaobao quickly seized the opportunity and said to Zhou's parents, "Please don't worry, Uncle and Aunt. You can entrust Xiaomin to me. I will never let her suffer!"
At this moment, Vivian Chow tugged at her mother's sleeve.
Understanding the situation, Mrs. Zhou spoke up to Mr. Zhou, saying, "Old Zhou, I think Xiao Bao is a very good child. He has good qualities, knows how to behave, and thinks about our Zhou family. Besides, Xiao Min herself has no objections. In addition, you already agreed yesterday. Why not just let the young people have their way?"
Perhaps Liu Xiaobao's statement satisfied Zhou's father.
Or perhaps it was Zhou's mother's persuasion that had an effect.
At this moment, Zhou's father glanced at Zhou Huimin, then sighed softly and said to her.
"Sigh! Daughters grow up and leave home. Alright, since Xiaomin is willing and this boy is a good person, then Dad won't be the villain who breaks up the couple. Everything is up to your own wishes!"
Vivian Chow said happily, "Thank you, Dad! Thank you, Mom!"
Then, Mr. Zhou turned to Liu Xiaobao and warned, "I'm entrusting my daughter to you today. If I find out you've wronged her, I'll fight you to the death!"
Seeing that Mr. Zhou had agreed, Liu Xiaobao nodded repeatedly and said, "Uncle, don't worry. I love Xiaomin too much to bear seeing her suffer. If that day ever comes, you won't even need to lift a finger; I'll end it all myself!"
Mr. Zhou was finally satisfied and gently waved his hand: "Go help Xiaomin with her luggage!"
"Okay!" Liu Xiaobao replied, then pulled Zhou Huimin upstairs, while giving Su Jie a wink.
Soon, Liu Xiaobao and Su Jie came down from the second floor, each carrying two suitcases. After Zhou Huimin said goodbye to her parents, Liu Xiaobao took her back to No. 9 in the hilltop area.
After Liu Xiaobao and his friends left, Mr. Zhou looked at the pile of cardboard boxes that had taken up space in his living room and muttered, "That kid is really something. He didn't even know to bring a bank card. With so much cash, how long am I supposed to carry it all?"
Mrs. Zhou jokingly teased Mr. Zhou, "You don't have to move! You can just lie on top of this money and sleep every day!"
Mr. Zhou rolled his eyes at Mrs. Zhou, then 660 reminded her, "Honey, didn't that kid say there were two more cars parked at the gate? Let's go see what they are!"
Mrs. Zhou shook her head and smiled, but didn't say anything more, and followed Mr. Zhou outside.
As soon as he got outside, Mr. Zhou saw the two new cars and immediately smiled.
"A Bentley and a Ferrari, that kid knows how to handle things. Not too flashy, but classy and prestigious. Not bad, not bad. Honey, you can use the Ferrari, and the Bentley is mine!"
When Zhou's mother saw the bright red Ferrari, she was overjoyed: "Just now we didn't know who was giving their son-in-law the cold shoulder, but now they're happy?"
"What do you know, you woman? I did it on purpose. I had to teach that kid a lesson so he wouldn't think Xiaomin has no one to rely on and bully her in the future!"
Hearing Mr. Zhou's reasons, Mrs. Zhou just smiled and said nothing more.
Twenty minutes later, Liu Xiaobao picked up Zhou Huimin and took her to No. 9 in the mountain top area.
When Zhou Huimin saw the room that Liu Xiaobao had meticulously decorated for her, she was stunned.
At this moment, Liu Xiaobao asked a question from the side.
"So, do you like the room your husband decorated for you?"
Zhou Huimin answered Liu Xiaobao's question with her actions.
At that moment, Vivian Chow turned around and gave Liu Xiaobao a sweet kiss, expressing her joy.
Chapter 163 After capturing Zhou Huimin, Xuezhi comes to her for help (Please subscribe)
Faced with the beautiful woman's initiative to kiss him, especially since she was the woman he had arranged to marry, Liu Xiaobao was not embarrassed at all.
He not only enjoyed it with a clear conscience, but also took advantage of the situation to turn the tables and take control, soon making Zhou Huimin infatuated.
Sensing Zhou Huimin's arousal, Liu Xiaobao disregarded the fact that it was daytime.
He kissed Vivian Chow as they reached the door, closed it, and then carried her directly to the bed.
Although Zhou Huimin was shy, from the moment she decided to move in with Liu Xiaobao, she was prepared to become Liu Xiaobao's woman.
Therefore, even though Zhou Huimin was a little nervous when faced with Liu Xiaobao's aggressive advances, she did not refuse.
Seeing Zhou Huimin, the "Jade Girl Leader," blushing with shyness, Liu Xiaobao felt a pang of pity for her, and the fire in his heart burned even brighter.
At this point, Liu Xiaobao disregarded everything else and launched an attack on Zhou Huimin...
A moment later, Su Jie, who was passing by the stairs downstairs, heard the noise coming from the second floor and shook his head helplessly again.
"This Mr. Bao is too lustful. He's already acting recklessly in broad daylight. Whatever, I'm going to install soundproofing material in all the rooms on the second floor tomorrow no matter what."
