A life of success begins with being a landlord.

I felt a pang of sadness, but I pretended nothing was wrong and laughed, "Silly girl, I'm only happy for you now that you have a boyfriend, why would I be angry?"

Liu Haomei and I have been together for two or three months now.

To be honest, there's definitely some emotion involved.

Now that this girl no longer belongs to me, I am naturally somewhat disappointed.

But after thinking about it calmly, I realized I couldn't ruin Liu Haomei's life, so I had to let go.

There's no shortage of beautiful women in Dongguan, and I'm surrounded by them too, so why should I try to control them?

"Brother Zu, you...you're such a good person." Liu Haomei cried and threw herself into my arms.

I patted Liu Haomei's back gently without saying a word.

After a long while, Liu Haomei wiped away her tears and said softly:

"Professor Qian has a student who writes poetry, a poet named Zhuang Zhiwen. He's interning here, and he's been... pursuing me."

"A poet?"

I nodded and smiled, "It's great that we share the same interests. Anyway, as long as you're happy, I won't interfere in your love life."

"Brother Zu..." Liu Haomei hugged me again:

"Brother Zu, let me stay with you in 302 tonight. Thank you for taking care of me. Without you, I'd still be standing on the street right now."

What does that mean? One last time before breaking up?

"No, you already have someone you love, so I won't touch you. It's out of respect for you."

I playfully flicked Liu Haomei's nose and laughed, "If you want to thank me, work hard in the future and become a great writer. Write about the ridiculous things I did in Dongguan in your novels, so I can look back on them when I'm old."

Liu Haomei chuckled: "It's a deal."

I nodded, called Ye Xiaotian, and asked him to drive my car and take Liu Haomei home.

Watching Liu Haomei's retreating figure as she went downstairs, I suddenly felt relieved.

I feel like I did a good deed. I didn't touch Liu Haomei today, and I didn't have one last time before breaking up. I'm still very noble, right?

No sooner had Liu Haomei left than Kuai Dafa came looking for her again.

I was very impatient and glared at him, saying, "You fatso, why aren't you leaving? Are you trying to retire here under the camphor tree?"

Kuai Dafu offered him a cigarette and said with a forced smile, "Brother Zu, I'll definitely be leaving in a couple of days. There's just a little thing I need to take care of. I'm planning to sell my big motorcycle and I'm looking for a buyer."

I snorted.

Kuai Dafa smiled ingratiatingly, rubbing his hands together: "Brother Zu, look, my rent isn't due yet, is it? Could you refund the remaining rent and deposit?"

I raised the ashtray, threatening to smash it down: "Believe it or not, I'll smash your head into a pulp!"

At this point, you still dare to ask me for rent and deposit?

I paid 3,000 yuan to repair the bathroom in room 404, and I still haven't contacted the repairman!

"Brother Zu, don't hit me!" Kuai Dafa was so frightened that he covered his head and squatted down: "Fine, if you don't want to give it to me, I was just saying."

I glared at him and said, "Get out!"

"Yes, yes, I'll get lost." Kuai Dafa was so scared that he ran away and disappeared before my eyes.

I shook my head, feeling unlucky, so I called Bingbing over and took her to Yinmeiduo and the arcade to get some fresh air and clear her head.

Walking down the street, Bingbing was very happy and held my hand the whole time.

As luck would have it, they ran into He Tiantian, Teacher Yu, and Xue Meihua.

He Tiantian was taken aback when she saw me holding Bingbing's hand.

Teacher Yu and Xue Meihua both greeted me with smiles.

I looked at Teacher Yu and said, "Teacher Yu, out for a late-night snack?"

"Yes, I was tired from grading homework, so I came out to eat a bowl of fried noodles." Teacher Yu looked Bingbing up and down, with a half-smile.

"Oh, this is Bingbing, my friend."

I simply put my arm around Bingbing's shoulder, smiled at Teacher Yu and He Tiantian, and said, "Let's have dinner together another day, and I'll introduce you."

He Tiantian rolled her eyes: "No need, President Wang."

"By the way, Tiantian, the medicinal wine is all ready. You can move it over there. In a couple of days, a lot of customers will be coming to buy the medicinal wine from you."

I suddenly remembered the medicinal wine: "Don't worry about the business, I'll introduce clients to it."

He Tiantian opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.

Teacher Yu smiled and said, "Thank you for your consideration, Mr. Wang. Let's have a late-night snack together, it's on me."

"We can have a late-night snack together, but it has to be on me."

I smiled and, with Bingbing and Teacher Yu, we walked towards the barbecue stall: "With your monthly salary of three hundred yuan, I can't afford to eat like this. If you treat me, I won't feel comfortable and won't enjoy myself."

In my opinion, the salaries of Teacher Yu and others are barely enough to make ends meet.

I can eat as much as I want in one meal and bankrupt them, leaving them homeless.

Teacher Yu smiled wryly: "I'm sorry, I always eat your food."

I waved my hand to indicate that I didn't care.

When we arrived at the barbecue stall, I asked the owner to pick out the best food, and to pack up any leftovers.

Teacher Yu was a little unhappy tonight. While drinking, he would occasionally space out and unconsciously sigh.

I asked, "Teacher Yu, is something wrong? Why do you keep sighing?"

"I'm divorced." Teacher Yu shook her head and raised her glass. "The correct way to say it is that my husband abandoned me; he doesn't want me anymore."

I was astonished: "Such a beautiful and gentle wife, your husband... is willing to divorce her?"

To be honest, Teacher Yu's figure is more attractive than Sister Li's.

Men would want to marry a woman with this kind of figure without even looking at her face!

Moreover, she has a gentle personality, and her eyes seem to smile, speak, and be captivating.

Such a young woman is the kind of woman that so many men yearn for but cannot have!

"Because I can't have children, and my husband... no, now my ex-husband, has a throne in his family, and there must be a crown prince to inherit it."

Teacher Yu shrugged: "So, I was stripped of my title as Empress, banished from the palace, and forced to live among the common people."

He Tiantian nudged Teacher Yu: "Teacher Yu, try to think more positively."

"It's okay, I'm okay with it." Teacher Yu raised an eyebrow at me: "You can't find three-legged toads, but three-legged men are everywhere, right?"

Bingbing burst out laughing.

After a moment's thought, I shook my head and laughed.

Xue Meihua was completely bewildered: "Shouldn't it be a two-legged man? How can there be a three-legged one?"

"Ahem, Meihua, have some vegetables. This squid is quite good."

I handed Xue Meihua two skewers of squid.

She's an honest person, she calls me "Big Brother," so I have to take care of her.

Teacher Yu is an experienced driver, but Meihua is a pure person.

Teacher Yu realized I was looking out for Xue Meihua, so she changed the subject, raising her glass: "Let's drink, let's not talk about those old things!"

After having a late-night snack, I took Xue Meihua and the others back to school, and it was time to get off work.

Bingbing was taken back by me.

Bobo had a spare room, so I took Bingbing there.

I returned to Zhongyao Company and slept in my room with Ah Xiang.

When I woke up the next morning, Ah Xiang hugged me and asked, "Brother Zu, when are you going to tell Dao Zai Xiong about my situation?"

"It's alright, Ah Xiang, it's nothing, don't worry."

I sat up, feeling Ah Xiang's smooth skin and beautiful figure with my hands: "What are you planning to do now?"

Ah Xiang's matter is basically over.

As long as I ask, Daozaixiong will give me face.

"Brother Zu, are you trying to kick me out?"

Ah Xiang's eyes reddened: "I want to follow you, okay? I want to follow you for the rest of my life, even if it's just being your mistress, raising your son, I don't want anything..."

I opened my mouth, but hesitated.
