A life of success begins with being a landlord.

I gestured for He Tiantian to be quiet and answered the phone: "Luo Hongyu, what's up?"

"Wang Yaozu, you got into a fight with Third Sister last night, didn't you?" Luo Hongyu asked bluntly.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"Old classmate, you've really gotten me into trouble..."

Luo Hongyu sighed repeatedly: "When my third sister came back tonight, she gave me a good beating. She knows we're classmates."

I laughed: "Isn't this just taking a wrong turn? We weren't fighting because of you. You're not my wife, nor my sister-in-law, why would she bother with you?"

Luo Hongyu sighed again: "Third Sister is here, you can talk to her yourself."

The voice on the phone then switched to Sister Liang's:

"Wang Yaozu, this isn't over. Last night, two of my brothers were seriously injured by your attacks and are still in the hospital. How are you going to pay for their medicine? You tell me!"

Sister Leung is really something, she even learned Cantonese, and she called medical expenses "medicine expenses".

"Third Sister, don't be angry. Is your bottom better?"

I remained calm: "Last night, I saw an awl pierce your butt. Did it break any bones?"

"You bastard, I'm in the hospital too, you're going to pay for my medicine!"

Sister Liang was furious, wishing she could crawl out of the phone and bite me.

I remained calm and unhurried: "The cost of the herbal medicine is negotiable. Which hospital do you work at?"

"Why are you asking this?"

"Nothing much. I can go to the hospital and treat you personally. If I accidentally kill you, I'll even give you some funeral expenses."

"Wang Yaozu, don't be so arrogant. Go ask around about Niu Lao Er and Niu Jie from Songyuli!" Sister Liang finally revealed her trump card:

"The man you injured last night is Niu Lao Er's brother. If you don't want to die, crawl over here obediently, kowtow to apologize, and pay for his medicine!"

I laughed out loud: "Sister Liang, you should also ask around about Gao Jianfeng from our Shuang Er Kang Company."

Who is Gao Jianfeng?

"My boss."

I snorted: "My boss, Gao Jianfeng, is known as the 'Northern Qiao Feng' of the pyramid scheme world, the founder of the Northern School of Pyramid Schemes. He's a force to be reckoned with in Guangdong and Guangxi, and he's a force to be reckoned with in Southeast Asia. He can overpower eight horses and pull nine oxen back from the brink of collapse. He's so powerful that he hates that the heavens have no handle and the earth has no ring. When he opens his mouth, the sky darkens and the earth shakes when he stomps his foot. You just have to ask Niu Lao Er if he's scared!"

Sister Liang was stunned by my rambling. After a moment of hesitation, she gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, you invite your boss, and I'll invite Brother Niu Er. Let's talk!"

I readily agreed: "No problem, just name a time and where would you like to discuss this?"

"Tomorrow at six o'clock in the afternoon, at the entrance of Wuwei Alley in Songyu Lane, do you dare to come?"

"Why wouldn't I dare? Do you think I'd bite you? See you tomorrow afternoon!"

I hung up the phone.

Then, I saw He Tiantian looking at me with a silly, adoring expression.

I rubbed my face: "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"Brother Zu, is your boss really... that amazing?"

"Oh, that's a must." I couldn't help but smile. "I'll introduce you to my boss sometime."

He Tiantian hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no, no, I'd better keep my distance from these underworld bosses."

Once bitten by a snake, twice shy; this silly girl has learned her lesson and knows she can't mess with the big boss of the underworld.

"Don't worry, my boss is a very upright person. He does good deeds every day, such as helping widows carry water, helping old ladies cross the road, and even teaching us to sing 'A Grateful Heart'."

I waved my hand: "Let's go. Tomorrow afternoon, I'll take you to find Sister Liang to negotiate and settle this mess between you two."

"Brother Zu, don't go!" He Tiantian grabbed me.

I turned around and looked at He Tiantian.

She borrowed Xue Meihua's clothes today, a light red dress that was a little too small, making her breasts appear even fuller and almost bursting out of the fabric...

"Brother Zu, I... I'd like to treat you to dinner. Thank you... for taking care of me." He Tiantian didn't dare to look at me, her voice barely audible.

"Is having a meal all you need to thank me for?"

I pointed to my head: "Last night, I got beaten bloody while saving you. I called my brothers for help and now I owe them a huge favor. Tomorrow night, I have to go to a meeting alone for you, my life hanging in the balance. Poor me, I'm not even married yet, I've never been with a woman, and I might just die a horrible death in the street."

"Then... how do you think I should thank you?" He Tiantian mustered her courage and looked up at me.

"Let me think about it." I closed my eyes.

Suddenly, two arms wrapped around my neck.

I opened my eyes and saw He Tiantian with her eyes closed, standing on tiptoe to kiss me.

What a sensible girl.

My heart fluttered, and I lowered my head to meet He Tiantian's lips.

"Hmm..." He Tiantian trembled slightly, seemingly both nervous and excited.

I hugged He Tiantian and kissed her for a long time, then kicked the door shut with my heel.

He Tiantian lost her balance and fell onto the bed with me.

"Brother Zu, no..."

He Tiantian was completely weak, and gently pushed me away: "It's too fast, I can't... I'm not ready. You... take your hand away. I have no strength left, don't bully me..."

I couldn't bear to pull away, so I whispered in her ear, "Tian Tian, ​​didn't you have a boyfriend before?"

"No, never..." He Tiantian closed her eyes, looking as shy as a flower.

"Do you like me?"

"I...I don't know, but I don't dislike you anyway."

"So, does what I'm doing count as taking advantage of someone in distress?" I continued to manipulate He Tiantian, pushing my luck.

"Of course it counts... Ugh, your hand..."

He Tiantian was almost out of breath. She opened her eyes and looked at me: "If you take me like this, you're a despicable person."

"So what makes someone an adult?"

"I don't know..." He Tiantian shook her head.

dong dong dong...

Footsteps sounded; someone was coming upstairs.

I had no choice but to let go and pull He Tiantian up.

"You little devil, you've ruined my clothes..." He Tiantian punched me, then turned around to straighten her clothes.

Knock knock knock!

Someone knocked on the door.

I opened the door and saw Xue Meihua standing outside.

"Ah, Brother Zu is here?"

When Xue Meihua saw us, she was startled, blushed, and turned away, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

He Tiantian had already straightened her clothes, her face flushed, and she glared at me slightly.

"It's alright, Meihua." I was quite frank and laughed, "Tiantian is from my hometown, and I'm proposing to her. You've come at the perfect time; be our witness."

Upon hearing this, He Tiantian blushed even more and punched me again: "You have a girlfriend, what nonsense are you talking about? Who accepted your proposal?"

Xue Meihua blushed and chuckled awkwardly, "Brother Zu, I don't understand your affairs. Um... Principal Chen is downstairs, please ask He Tiantian to go down."

I nodded and took He Tiantian's hand: "Come on, I'll take you to talk to Principal Chen."

He Tiantian was shy and wouldn't let me hold her hand.

I took her hand again and held it tightly: "Don't be shy, dating isn't illegal."

"I'd never date you!" He Tiantian couldn't free her hands, so she could only awkwardly follow me downstairs.

Your little hands are so soft, so delicate and smooth.

In the office, Principal Chen said to me, "I sincerely hope that Dr. He can stay and become the school doctor. Our conditions aren't good right now, and the salary isn't high, but it will gradually increase in the future..."

"I support it."

I made it clear: "Tian Tian can learn while working. If her salary isn't enough, I'll subsidize it; it's our way of contributing to society."

He Tiantian glanced at me and finally nodded: "Then I'll give it a try."

Principal Chen was very happy and wanted to treat Tian Tian and me to dinner.

Just as I was about to agree, the phone rang. It was Chunyan.

"Chunyan, are you off work yet?"

"Old Wang, something happened at my home, where are you?" Chunyan's voice was choked with sobs.
