Xu Youxiang: Pregnant

"Twenty million," Yu Ningmeng replied.

"Twenty million?" Xia Yu was a bit confused, because he only gave Yin Shulan a little over ten million. How did Yin Shulan suddenly have twenty million?

"There are also bank loans and stuff. We investigated and found that the funds have been transferred to banks in the second district. Do you require us to retrieve it? It is estimated to take a few days," Yu Ningmeng asked.

"No need to retrieve it," Xia Yu's purpose was to make Yin Shulan penniless, "If we follow the normal procedure, is the probability of retrieving the money high?"

"Not really. It's a branch bank of the 23rd district located in the second district. The intermediate procedures are a bit complicated. By the time the procedures are completed, the money will have likely already been laundered on the other side," Yu Ningmeng replied.

"That's good," Xia Yu felt relieved, "Catch that guy and tell Yin Shulan that her money is gone and her nephew is a fraudster."

"Alright, I will make the arrangements." Yu Ningmeng hung up the phone.

Xia Yu went to the washroom, brushing his teeth and marveling at the amazing abilities of Yin family's nephew. Just half a year ago, he was a small-time scammer who used tricks to buy low-priced houses with only tens of thousands of dollars. Now he had transformed into a big-time scammer in the business world, defrauding up to twenty million dollars.

Indeed, once a person encounters an opportunity, he can display abilities that even he himself would find hard to believe.

After finishing his morning routine, Xia Yu left the room and knocked on An Siyao's door. The two of them had breakfast together at the restaurant nearby.

He didn't immediately look for Yin Shulan. When she received the news, she wouldn't immediately believe it. She needed time to confirm.

At noon, Xia Yu, who was in the hotel lobby, first met Yin Shulan's eldest son, Yin Changgui.

Yin Changgui came to An Siyao nervously and asked, "Miss An, I heard that my mother's money has been scammed, and some debts have been incurred. Could you please confirm if it's true?"

Yin Changgui had been serving by Yin Shulan's side all day, and he had eavesdropped on her phone call.

An Siyao didn't understand what Yin Changgui was talking about, so she looked at Xia Yu.

Xia Yu coughed and gestured to Yin Changgui, "Let me explain this. We heard the news this morning. Your nephew transferred the money to another district, and the chances of getting it back are slim."

"Why is it slim? Don't they have to abide by our district's laws outside the district?" Yin Changgui was anxious.

"There are some complexities involved, and you can search for this case online." Xia Yu mentioned an example, convincing Yin Changgui that the money was almost impossible to recover.

"Mr. Xia, the parents' debts won't fall on the children, right?" Yin Changgui thought of the millions owed by Yin Shulan.

"Of course not, but you don't need to be so pessimistic. As long as your mother agrees to our terms and uses the money from the pharmaceutical business to pay off the debt, it would be easy, and you might even have some money left over," Xia Yu hinted at Yin Changgui.

"Right! Right! Right!" Yin Changgui slapped his thigh, "You wait, I will go back and persuade my mother. I will call my two brothers to join me in persuading her."

With that, Yin Changgui hurriedly ran out of the hotel.

Xia Yu picked up his tea from the table, took a sip, and revealed a satisfied smile.

This smile was captured by the driver, who felt a bit chilly around him.

Although he didn't know what had happened, from Yin Changgui's narration, it seemed that Mr. Xia had ruined the Yin family's economy and saddled them with debt!

In today's world, money is the most important thing. Through money, Mr. Xia easily grasped the Yin family's throat!

How terrifying.

The driver had thought that there would be a real struggle, but he didn't expect everything to settle down unknowingly.

Is this the true style of a wealthy family?

But would the Yin family really comply?

The driver was waiting, and at dusk, he got the answer.

With a creak of the door, the pale-faced Yin Shulan walked in.

Xia Yu signaled An Siyao to speak, as on the surface, An Siyao was the leader.

An Siyao didn't stand up. She pointed to the sofa in front of her.

Yin Shulan came to the sofa and sat down.

"Have you thought it through?" An Siyao crossed her hands, propping her chin up, looking like the mastermind behind the scenes.

"What do you want to do?" Yin Shulan's words were bitter.

An Siyao looked at Xia Yu, as this topic was not part of their plan, she didn't know how to respond.

Xia Yu hinted and switched bodies with An Siyao.

An Siyao leaned back, propped up her legs, and said lazily, "We want to help you."

Xia Yu was reminding Yin Shulan that no matter what, she only had one option to agree.

This was much better than constant explanation. No matter how much she explained, it would be useless if Yin Shulan didn't believe her.

Yin Shulan thought for ten minutes, then finally spoke with difficulty: "I agree."

"Take a break, and we'll leave early tomorrow morning." Xia Yu stood up and asked the driver to arrange a room for Yin Shulan.

The driver respectfully invited Yin Shulan upstairs and opened a room for her.

He dared not underestimate Yin Shulan, as she was the person Miss An and Mr. Xia had personally come to invite.

After letting Yin Shulan rest in the room, the driver stepped out and sighed with relief.

He recalled the conversation between Xia Yu and Yin Shulan just now.

The two had always talked about pharmaceutical research, which almost convinced the driver, but when Yin Shulan came and asked, "What do you want to do?" he knew that things were not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

Would an ordinary research invitation prompt a researcher to ask this question with a heavy expression?

Obviously, pharmaceutical research was a code word. What did it represent?

Until he went to bed that night, the driver was still thinking about this matter.

The next day at eight in the morning, after washing up, everyone gathered downstairs. They got in the car, went to the city, and took a plane back to Yao Guang City.

With the addition of Yin Shulan, the research progressed much faster. Coupled with Xia Yu's occasional bursts of inspiration, a drug with alleviating effects had taken shape after a month.

One day, Xia Yu, who had been working hard on research every day, decided to take a day off. He invited Xu Youxiang and An Siyao to play a game together.

The three of them played a multiplayer battle game. An Siyao treated the game as a walking simulator, controlling the character to walk around, making interesting laughter after being knocked away by Xia Yu.

As for Xu Youxiang, she turned the game into a deadly chase, controlling a character with a chainsaw, chasing Xia Yu.

However, her skills were not as good as Xia Yu's, and she was always killed by him in return.

Unable to catch Xia Yu for a long time, Xu Youxiang extended the chainsaw towards An Siyao, who was walking by.

"Eh?" Watching her character die, An Siyao felt a bit downcast, as she hadn't finished walking the map.

With An Siyao gone, Xu Youxiang continued to pursue Xia Yu.

As the three were playing enthusiastically, Xu Youxiang's phone rang. It was a call from her mother.

"Xiangxiang, Mom is going back," Xu's mother said.

"Mhm, go ahead without worrying," Xu Youxiang replied while holding her phone between her neck and shoulder, her hands still playing the game.

"You need to take care of your health. Now that the weather is..." Xu's mother started nagging.

"Mhm, mhm, mhm," Xu Youxiang continuously replied.

Towards the end, Xu's mother said, "You're at that age already, you should get a boyfriend."

"No need," Xu Youxiang glanced at Xia Yu.

"Why not? If you don't want to find one yourself, Mom can introduce you to someone. I'm sure you'll like him, and you can reject if he's not suitable. Your leg can heal now, so pick carefully!" Xu's mother continued to persuade.

"I already have one," Xu Youxiang replied.
