"It's okay. We'll make even more money in the future. Look, this city has been revitalized. Just now, 500 restaurants received orders. This is just the first wave, and there will be more orders to come. After tonight, as soon as the data is released, other cities will soon be under our control." Xie Mei was unconvinced. She knew Zhao An had a lot of money—real money, not virtual money.
The capital for burning money comes from one's own money, and it must be real money. Otherwise, this trick won't work. The infinite nesting doll method may be able to make a fortune out of nothing, but if something goes wrong, it will be a disaster.
"I know, I'm just a little uncomfortable. This time, the money burned is really too much. It's different from building a community." Huang Lin sighed. She still agreed with the concept of building a community that was her own. After all, having your own home, surrounded by your own people, is a much better feeling.
Huang Lin herself hadn't noticed that she could express such sentiments, but she was already putting herself in the position of a wife. She was thinking from the perspective of the mistress of the family, considering the benefits of such things for her family.
From mistress to mistress, even though they weren't married or registered, Huang Lin had already placed her heart entirely on Zhao An.
Xie Mei simply smiled at her daughter without saying anything, a touch of emotion still welling up in her heart.
Huang Lin felt a little embarrassed by her mother's gaze and said coyly, "Mom, what are you doing? Why do I feel like you're laughing at me?"
Xie Mei stroked her daughter's hair and said with a heartfelt smile, "No, it's just that I feel like you're married now. You're a woman of the Zhao family, having gone from a girl to a woman, truly grown up."
"Mom, you make it sound like you're no longer a woman of the Zhao family," Huang Lin said coquettishly, her tone a mix of coquettishness and joking. She knew about her mother's relationship with Zhao An.
"Haha, that's good too. This way, I don't have to be sad to see you leave and get married." Xie Mei's smile was filled with happiness. As a beautiful, mature woman with intelligence and elegance, she was quite open-minded about this kind of relationship.
This was a first for both mother and daughter, sharing a husband. But for Zhao An, it wasn't the same. The first mother-daughter duo was the class beauty. He'd used money to coerce them into becoming his sex slaves. Both mother and daughter were pregnant, a fact that filled a man with excitement and pride at the mere thought.
In another building, the power supply to the Tang Group branch had just been restored. It had been caused by an unnoticeable spot that hadn't been checked, and the wiring layout had been a bit messed up. Add to that the excessive power, and naturally, there were problems.
That was the explanation, but Tang Wu wouldn't admit it. His mother had completely given him power, and even the family elders supported him. If he still couldn't defeat Zhao An and Tang Bing found an opportunity to turn the tables, he'd go crazy!
"Damn it! What's that Tang Bing doing? Damn it! Is he completely sealed off? Even if he's completely sealed off, I'm going to find out. If you can't, you're screwed!" Tang Wu roared angrily into the phone, hanging up before lighting a cigarette. He was irritated. Lately, Tang Bing's affairs had been a bit irritating. His big brother was showing signs of a comeback, which gave him a slight sense of crisis.
Looking at the live streaming platform's traffic, it was at its lowest today. Even the celebrities' live streams didn't have much. This time, the traffic had been completely drained away, and there was nothing he could do. After all, the other party's show was so much more exciting.
"Gosh awful!" Tang Wu spat, his eyes etched with indignation. He had considered collaborating with Zhao An before, but he'd been ridiculed when he'd called.
It was his own fault. Why was he putting on airs when things were going well? Zhao An wouldn't fall for it. Putting on airs with him? Then he'd lose everything!
As if a thought had struck him, Tang Wu instructed the logistics manager to get the building back online as soon as possible. They were just barely keeping things going with diesel generators, and that wasn't a long-term solution.
The logistics manager was someone Qian Yuling had promoted, and he was also someone Tang Wu was close to. So, despite all this, Tang Wu still didn't tear him off and take advantage of the situation to replace him with his own men.
In a villa, Qian Yuling and a pair of sisters were also watching TV, but the program on TV was just the opening concert hosted by Zhao An.
Qian Yuling still folded her stockinged legs, her delicate hands resting on the back of the sofa, a burning cigarette between her fingers, taking a puff from time to time to relieve her loneliness.
Next to her was a woman smoking. Compared to Qian Yuling's assertiveness, her temperament had a touch of seductive charm, and she was the kind of woman who was obviously calculating and not to be trifled with.
Tang Yuanxiu puffed on her cigarette, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly. She had never been very involved in matters, but that didn't mean her words carried no weight. She was passionate about managing interpersonal relationships. As a direct descendant of the Tang family, she was familiar with the heads of many company branches, making it easier for her to communicate with them.
And the fight for the position of heir was absolutely indispensable, requiring the help of a woman. If she were willing to help Tang Bing, a reversal would likely happen quickly. This wasn't just a pipe dream. The elders' words carried weight, but her grandmother's were even more powerful. As long as her grandmother lived, she would still hold considerable influence. However, compared to Qian Yuling's prominent presence, she was a reclusive woman who lived behind the scenes. Who could have imagined that a wealthy woman who lived in seclusion, toying with and beating men in the club every day, could actually carry such weight?
This was the complex secret of a large family, a mystery forever unknown, a mystery forever elusive.
Compared to the smoky clouds of Qian Yuling and Tang Yuanxiu, Tang Wenxiu, sitting quietly sipping tea, looked rather delicate and charming. A hint of rosy glow clung to her pretty face, a rosy complexion compared to her former pallor, now tinged with color, making her look much more beautiful. This was how a woman should look. Nourished by semen, she blossomed with beauty, exuding an alluring, mature aura. At the prime of life, show the beauty of your youth.
