All the heavens are bound to the palace intrigue system

Yu Li slept soundly until he was woken up by Shen Tang's phone call.

"Li-zai, we made an appointment with School Director Zhang in an hour. Are you up yet?"

"I slept until now." Yu Li yawned and sat up, his mind gradually clearing. "I'll get up and pack now, then head over there."

"Okay, I have something to take care of here, I'll contact you later."

Just as I hung up the phone, Qiu Di pushed open the door and walked in.

"You're awake?" Qiu Di was wearing a simple white shirt and light blue jeans today, with her hair simply tied up, making her look pure and beautiful.

"I heard you talking outside. How were you sleeping?" Qiu Di walked over and sat on the bed, reaching out to touch Yu Li's face.

Yu Li hugged her and kissed her.

"You didn't brush your teeth, you smell so bad..." Qiu Di frowned.

"Dare to despise me?" Yu Li feigned ferocity and slammed Qiu Di onto the bed.

"Hehe... Don't do anything reckless... Ouch!"

The two laughed and joked around for a while, then hugged each other tightly.

"Ali, never leave me in this lifetime, okay?" Qiu Di whispered, as if in a murmur.

"Silly girl, I will definitely marry you," Yu Li said with a smile.

Of the two women currently involved with him, Shen Tang would never marry him, and she doesn't need Yu Li to give her any title.

On the contrary, Qiu Di felt that the girl should be given an explanation.

Love?

It's not quite time to say that, but Yu Li has already used the top business talent card on her, and for the sake of his own interests, Yu Li will definitely marry her.

This is the adult world; even the best relationships require shared interests to maintain. So-called pure love is an unrealistic fairy tale.

"Really?" Qiu Di looked up at Yu Li, her eyes sparkling.

"If you're willing, once I've gotten rid of my gang affiliation and cleared my name, we'll have a wedding!" Yu Li gave a clear answer.

Suddenly, tears streamed down Qiu Di's face.

After realizing that Yu Li had other women, she no longer asked for anything more. But to her surprise, Yu Li was actually willing to marry her.

Overwhelmed by the sudden happiness, she was so moved that she couldn't hold back her tears.

She hugged Yu Li tightly, showering him with passionate kisses all over his face and body.

When she reached in and grabbed it, Yu Li quickly stopped her.

"Why are you like this...?" Qiu Di asked, her face flushed and puzzled.

"I've arranged everything for my little sister's schooling. We've arranged to meet with the school board." Yu Li patted her ample bosom. "I'll satisfy you properly when we get back."

"Who needs your approval?" Qiu Di said, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. "Why didn't you say so earlier if you had something important to say?"

He paused for a moment and then said, "We've all eaten. We didn't wake you because you were sleeping so soundly, but we left you some food. I'm going to wash up, and I'll heat it up for you."

"Auntie and the new neighbor you met went out, and my little sister is taking a nap at home. You eat first, and I'll go call her so we can go to school together."

"Okay." Yu Li nodded.

During the meal, Yu Qian was both nervous and excited. She was worried that the school might not accept her, and she was also looking forward to her new campus life. She kept chattering away.

Yu Li was so annoyed that he simply grabbed her and slapped her on the butt a few times, and she immediately became obedient.

When it was time to leave, Yu Qian's lips were so pouty that they could hang an oil bottle on them, as if she didn't want to talk to Yu Li.

However, when they arrived at the school gate, the little girl became nervous again.

"Brother, will the school really look down on me? The environment here is so nice, and everyone who comes to study here is rich and powerful. I'm just a person living in a housing estate..."

"Little sister, look at me." Yu Li grabbed Yu Qian's arm and made her face him.

"Do you know what these are?" He held up four property ownership certificates. "This is what your brother and I have made in the stock market over the past two years, worth over a hundred million! Do you know what a hundred million means?"

Yu Qian's eyes widened.

Qiu Di was also deeply shocked.

They had all accepted the fact that Yu Li was making a lot of money, but they hadn't expected it to be this much!

One billion!

This is an astronomical figure for them!

Previously, a gambling debt of 300,000 yuan had almost torn a family apart, but now Yu Li tells her that her older brother has earned 100 million yuan in two years.

Yu Qian pinched her thigh, and it hurt terribly!

It's not a dream.

grunt.

She swallowed hard, her voice trembling, "Brother, you earn so much money, is it because of Yu Tai that you don't dare tell us? Well, that gambling addict, if he knew you had so much money, he would have gambled it all away long ago!"

"It's not just because of Yu Tai," Yu Li said. "We have no status or background, yet we have so much money on us. To those bad people, we're easy prey. If others find out, this money will only ruin our family."

"Ali, you've really worked hard." Qiu Di's expression was complicated and she was very grateful.

Having both struggled at the bottom of society, she understood Yu Li's concerns and the dangers he faced.

She now understands why Yu Li, who is so rich, insists on joining a gang and working so hard.

The two women's imaginations automatically filled in the gaps for Yu Li's explanation.

"So, little sister, you're not from a public housing estate!" Yu Li said seriously. "Your family is in the finance business, owns three shops in Central, and lives in a luxury mansion of over 5,000 square feet in The Grand! You're a rich heiress!"

"Me? A rich girl?" Yu Qian seemed to realize something.

"That's right!" Yu Li said. "Not only are you a rich girl, but your brother also has a gang connection, and we're very well-connected, with influence in both the legitimate and underworld circles! In this school, you don't have to be afraid of anyone! No matter who dares to bully you, you can fight back! You can completely roam this school like a tyrant, and even becoming a big sister wouldn't be a problem!"

"Ali, you can't teach children like that," Qiu Di couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.

She felt that Yu Li was exaggerating a bit. Yes, Yu Li was rich, but not to the point where he could do whatever he wanted.

There are many wealthy people on Hong Kong Island, and St. Anne's Secondary School is a concentration of rich kids. As far as I'm concerned, my family's wealth is really not enough.

She felt that Yu Li was getting a little too arrogant.

But she also felt something was off, because she didn't think Yu Li was the kind of person who would get carried away with success.

Thanks to the benefits of the top business talent card, Qiu Di had a flash of inspiration and suddenly guessed Yu Li's purpose in saying that. So she just said one sentence and then suddenly stopped talking and stopped trying to persuade him.

Yu Li glanced at Qiu Di, knowing that she understood what he meant, and his expression couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Qiu Di rolled her eyes. What's so surprising? Does she mean I'm stupid and shouldn't have guessed it?

Yu Li couldn't help but smile. Qiu Di was getting smarter and smarter, which was a good thing.

His overbearing arrogance stemmed from his desire for potent medicine for a serious illness. Yu Qian's deep-seated inferiority complex and timidity arose from poverty and lack of connections.

He now portrays himself as a wealthy and influential big brother, which undoubtedly gives Yu Qian a lot of confidence.

Yu Qian immediately straightened up: "Am I really... a rich young lady now?"

"Of course!" Yu Li said with a smile. "Didn't Qiu Di take you shopping yesterday and buy you a lot of clothes? After you register today, don't rush to school. Let your sister-in-law take you to a nearby training class for etiquette, luxury goods, piano or other musical instruments, and maybe learn some taekwondo or something."

"Really? Brother?" Yu Qian's eyes grew brighter and brighter, her face full of excitement. What Yu Li said was like a dream life to her, something she never dared to dream of before.

"Of course!" Yu Li gave her an affirming look. "Anyway, you can do whatever you want, I'll back you up!"

"That's wonderful, brother!" Yu Qian excitedly hugged Yu Li, jumping and skipping, and even jumped up to kiss Yu Li's face several times. "I declare that you are the best brother in the whole world!"

"You didn't say that at home just now," Yu Li chuckled. "You said I was the most annoying person in the world."

"Oh, I was just joking. I'll apologize to you, okay, brother?" Yu Qian immediately started to act coquettishly, which made Qiu Di chuckle.

Yu Li's method worked as expected. When Yu Qian walked into the school gate, her whole demeanor was completely different.

Especially when she met with Chairman Zhang, she was not timid or hesitant, but answered all her questions generously and confidently.

The admission process went very smoothly. Shen Tang hired a well-known lawyer as guarantor, and Yu Li demonstrated his substantial family wealth, fully meeting the admission requirements of this prestigious school.

After agreeing on enrollment a month later, Chairman Zhang greeted Yu Li and his party with a smile and personally escorted them downstairs, showing great courtesy.

Seeing this, Yu Qian felt even more confident.

Look, even the school board members are being so polite to my brother. I really am a rich heiress now, hahaha...

Yu Qian was overjoyed, feeling incredibly happy.

Even Qiu Di gained more confidence because of her husband.

As the three of them walked to the school gate, chatting and laughing, a Chevrolet SUV happened to be parked outside the gate. Shen Tang, wearing a red trench coat and sunglasses, leaned against the front of the car, watching this scene with a smile on her lips.

Yu Li was somewhat surprised, not expecting Shen Tang to actually come.

"Ali, you...know each other?" Qiu Di was very perceptive and immediately realized something. Her expression changed slightly.

What is this, a battleground?

If two women meet, will it be like Mars colliding with Earth?

Yu Li remained calm, indicating that he was not flustered at all.

He took Qiu Di's hand and walked towards Shen Tang, saying with a smile, "Of course I know him. Come on, let me introduce you to a friend."

When they arrived, Shen Tang took off her sunglasses, her watery eyes looking at Yu Li with a half-smile, and said lazily, "Sorry, something came up, I'm late."

He paused, then looked at Qiu Di and said, "This is Qiu Di, the girlfriend you mentioned to me, right? She's really beautiful."

Then he waved to Yu Qian and said, "You must be Xiao Qian? Hello!"

Shen Tang's aura was quite strong today, completely intimidating Qiu Di and Yu Qian, who both became somewhat reserved.

"Let me introduce you. This is Shen Tang. You can call her Sister Tang, just like I do," Yu Li said.

Qiu Di and Yu Qian hurriedly greeted each other.

"I was able to get into this school thanks to Sister Tang's connections," Yu Li said. "And Qiu Di, the bar that was going to be opened for you, was also designed and decorated by Sister Tang's company."

"Sister Tang, thank you for taking care of me." Qiu Di hurriedly expressed her gratitude, her face turning a little pale.

She felt utterly outclassed by the woman in front of her, which stirred a bitterness and inferiority within her. She had a vague feeling that Yu Li's relationship with this woman was definitely not simple.

"Why are you being so polite?" Shen Tang looked at Yu Li with amusement. "Li has helped me a lot more; he's very capable."

Perhaps noticing Qiu Di's unusual behavior, she suddenly softened her expression, stepped forward to straighten Qiu Di's collar, and said softly, "These past two days, Li Zai has been praising you to the skies. That scoundrel is really lucky to have won the favor of such a beautiful woman like you."

"Sister Tang, you are the real beauty." Qiu Di said, biting her lip.

"Li-zai and I have already agreed that I'll give you a big red envelope when you get married!" Shen Tang said with a smile. "I wonder if I'd be welcome to come to your wedding banquet?"

Qiu Di was startled and subconsciously looked at Yu Li, only to see Yu Li smiling at her.

Her heart immediately calmed down.

"Of course you're welcome, Sister Tang." She smiled.

"Okay, get in the car!" Shen Tang snapped her fingers. "I have something to discuss with Li Zai. I'll take you and your little sister first. There are some gifts I prepared for you in the car."

"Remember to exchange contact information later, let's meet up for afternoon tea sometime!"

Contrary to expectations, Shen Tang was very sensible and handled the relationship between the three of them with ease, establishing their respective roles and identities.

Her proactive statement that she would not compete put Qiu Di at ease, and also relieved Yu Li of any worries.

Yu Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart once again, "My sister is so wonderful."

Shen Tang brought Qiu Di a gold necklace as a gift, and gave Yu Qian a new mobile phone and a luxury store shopping card with a limit of 10,000 yuan.

I must say, they put a lot of effort into it.

When Shen Tang learned that Qiu Di planned to take Yu Qian to consult some training courses, she took the initiative to contact a professional, saving Qiu Di a lot of time and trouble.

When Qiu Di and Yu Qian got out of the car, the three women were already chatting and laughing, as close as old friends.

The friendship between women was indeed something Yu Li couldn't quite understand.

But this is definitely a good thing.

After the car got back on the road, only Yu Li and Shen Tang remained in the car.

"Sister Tang, you didn't just come to say hello today, did you?" Yu Li asked with a smile. "Is something wrong?"

Shen Tang took a deep breath and nodded: "Li Zai, I'm calling you because I really need your help."

"What is it?" Yu Li asked.

"Let's talk about your money first." After a slight hesitation, Shen Tang suddenly changed the subject. "Your money totaled over seventeen million. I got you the lowest possible fees through my connections, laundering it through the stock market, and you'll get twelve million. What do you think?"

Five million disappeared all at once; these money launderers are truly greedy...

However, Yu Li didn't feel bad about it. After all, it was free money, and he had always had a carefree attitude towards life, so he didn't value money too much.

"Okay, Sister Tang, you can handle it," Yu Li said.

"The money won't arrive for another week." Shen Tang glanced at Yu Li. "If you need money during this time, just tell me. I don't have much, but I can still come up with a million or two."
