[Rescuer of a bankrupt company vs. Egret City's top heiress]
Everyone says I'm bad luck, and I've long since gotten used to the criticism. The young lady, however, doesn't care.
Even after I turned her down twice, the young lady still insisted on being with me. When I broke up with her, I thought I'd finally gotten rid of her. Who knew she'd come back from studying abroad and start pestering me again? She's at the summit forum, she's at the acquisition meetings, she's at the company, she's at home...
In the end, even the daughter I adopted asked me, “Mom, doesn't that pretty big sister have a home?”
It was as if a flock of crows had flown over my head. I really wanted to tell her that the pretty big sister was Egret City's number one young lady. How could she not have a home...
1. To keep the company afloat, Lin Mu has lost count of how many times she's drunk herself unconscious under the table and had her assistant drag her home. Every time, she mumbles, “Xixi, I miss you so much.”
2. By chance, she finds the notebook her father locked in the safe, and only then realizes that her mother's death and the technical director's death were not accidents.
3. “I know you're investigating my mother's car accident. Please stop, okay?” Lin Mu pleads, gripping the report in her hands. “You know the accident wasn't an accident. Why won't you investigate? So... was my dad the culprit?” Lu Xiwei hears no reply from the other end, and her hand trembles even more.
4. Egret City's number one young lady is kidnapped
Lu Xiwei: “The Lu family can give you whatever amount of money you want. Let me go, and I'll make sure you're safe.”
The masked person presses a knife to her neck, drawing a few beads of blood. “So what if you've got a little money? You're the one investigating me, aren't you? Come on, then! You won't be happy until you've sent me to prison. Push me too far, and none of us will get out alive!”
Lin Mu opens the rust-covered iron door and throws a suitcase onto the ground. “I brought what you asked for. Let her go!”

I want to intersperse some plot points in Chapter 18, but I haven't finished writing it yet. I can't update it on time at 3 o'clock on Friday midnight 🥺, but I will definitely post it on Friday.
Last night it was set to be updated at 3:00 on September 24th. I just found out that it will be changed to a scheduled update of Chapter 17 at 12:00 noon today. [Lie flat] [Lie flat]
