During this period, Xu Xuehui, the second elder sister, was attending university classes. She had heard about Xu Mo selling off the shared bicycle business.
A few days ago, Xu Pandi mentioned that Xu Mo had met with them at school, and Xie Bingyan had threatened Xu Mo, warning that continuing would lead to bankruptcy. She even brought up threats involving both the Xie and Xu families.
Xu Xuehui hadn’t known about this before, and now that she heard, she felt like it was hard to breathe.
She approached Xu Wanting for confirmation, and Xu Wanting nodded without denying it.
They confronted Xie Bingyan, but it seemed they didn’t achieve any results.
“Stop investigating the palladium poisoning incident! Continuing will only bring big trouble! Since Xu Mo believes it was you and me, let him think that way! I don’t want him digging into anyone else!” Xu Wanting said firmly.
Upon hearing Xu Wanting’s words, Xu Xuehui felt her limbs turn cold.
Elder sister, it was almost certain that Xie Bingyan was behind it, and this was hard for her to accept.
If it was indeed Xie Bingyan, they couldn’t afford to continue investigating. After all, they didn’t want any more major upheavals in their family.
They feared Xu Mo finding out that Xie Bingyan had attempted to poison him, as it was too cruel.
Even though other possibilities could be just as brutal.
Upon hearing those words, Xu Xuehui locked herself in her room for several days, only emerging when urged by phone calls reminding her of classes.
Later on, Xu Deming and Xu Wanting showed her a photo and explained it was related to the funeral wailing matter. Xu Xuehui froze upon seeing it.
“This happened a long time ago, when he was around twelve years old! He cried at several households! I checked, and after he returned to our home, he went a few more times!”
“He went back afterwards? Sneakily?” Xu Xuehui widened her eyes slightly.
“Yes! Sneakily, nobody knew!” Xu Wanting replied. “As for what he did with the money he earned, I have no idea. He was probably in need of money when he went!”
Xu Xuehui stared at the photo for a moment, her breathing rapid. After a prolonged silence, she struggled to speak. “Sister, do you remember? That time, Fifth sister’s colleague’s phone was stolen, and Fifth sister suspected Xu Mo. He demanded compensation, and Xu Mo supposedly earned money to buy her a replacement!”
Xu Wanting froze, eyes wide.
“And… once on my birthday, he gave me some gifts! They weren’t expensive, but I threw them into the trash can! He also gave you…” Xu Xuehui fixed her gaze on Xu Wanting. “He said he took a long time to choose, picking something we both liked. But where did his money come from?”
Silence suddenly enveloped the living room, so profound that one could hear a pin drop.
“Eventually, Fifth Sister’s colleague found the phone; it had just fallen behind a cabinet! And those gifts he gave us, most of them ended up in the trash can. One of them was even left in his drawer, and he said he took a long time to pick it out and make sure it was just right!” Xu Xuehui spoke slowly, her breath labored. “Could it be… from the funeral wailing?”
Instantly, Xu Wanting’s face turned ashen, trembling uncontrollably as if facing a disaster.
She had never considered these things before.
In the past few days, even when Xu Deming mentioned it to her, she hadn’t thought deeply about it. But now, thinking carefully, where did Xu Mo get the money back then? All the money he had came from part-time jobs!
What kind of part-time job could he do as a high school student to make so much money all of a sudden?
Now thinking about it, it all seems clear.
So those gifts were tainted with blood!
So those gifts were all begged for!
“We… owe him an apology!”
“Yes!”
“Deserves… to die a thousand deaths!”
“Yes!”
…
Tang Lei introduced a new girlfriend to Xu Mo and the others.
Xu Mo and the others took a glance and all smiled, then went out to eat together.
That little guy Tang Lei is gradually becoming famous at school.
It’s impressive how having money in hand, with houses and cars, and being one of the founders of a bike sharing company, is enough to make him famous at school.
Some time ago, Xu Junzhe also became famous at school for creating shared electric bikes, but when the shared electric bikes became less popular, some people lost interest in him.
However, now that it’s been revealed that Tang Lei is one of the founders of Little Monster Bike Sharing that had cashed out five billion, the news has caused a sensation at school.
It turns out the big shot was right under our noses all along, and now some people at school are starting to flock to him.
Why haven’t Xu Mo, Gu Huanxi, and Li Banzhu been exposed?
Naturally, Xu Mo has kept his school life almost completely private, and Gu Huanxi and Li Banzhu don’t seek fame and prefer to keep a low profile.
Only Tang Lei, due to his parents coming to find him and extensive media coverage, has caused his popularity to soar.
In no time, his fame at school has overshadowed Xu Junzhe’s, making him the new leader among young entrepreneurs.
He’s already been invited to give speeches, but Tang Lei isn’t good at speaking on stage; he trembles as soon as he steps up, so he hasn’t gone.
Of course, not going is not going, but he’s found his love and introduced a petite and lovely girlfriend to them.
Xu Mo has met that girl, she’s quite nice and suits him well. However, he still reminds him to keep his eyes wide open.
Sometimes having a lot of money isn’t entirely a good thing.
“We need to be cautious, guard against all kinds of scams! When we were ordinary before, maybe some people wouldn’t even be around us! But now that we have money, any sort of demons and monsters could appear!”
“Some people will go to any lengths to try to make us lose everything we have! What we need to do is never easily trust anyone!”
“Our journey is still long, just beginning! You, and you, and you, all need to be careful!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Huanxi and Li Banzhuang chuckled. “Xu Mo, what about you? Don’t you want to find someone?”
“I don’t see the need for it right now! I’m not interested at the moment. There’s still so much for us to handle at the company,” Xu Mo replied.
“Really?” Gu Huanxi and Li Banzhuang looked surprised.
“Yes,” Xu Mo nodded. “Right now, our priority is to boost Pinduoduo and make the Price Slashing model more popular and explosive. Besides that, I have nothing else on my agenda.”
Gu Huanxi and Li Banzhuang felt a hint of disappointment but quickly smiled again. “Don’t worry, our model is solid, and our ideas are excellent. It’s bound to take off!”
“That’s good to hear!”
…
Recently, Xu Mo received news that Xu Junzhe’s shared electric bike project had been revived.
It seems like Xu Junzhe has secured some funding and reinvested it, restarting his shared electric bike advertising campaign to attract users.
“He’s making waves again and continuing to attract investment. Perhaps he’ll really manage to pull in some funding.”
“At this point, Xu Deming probably intends to have him join Fengxiang Jewelry! Hmm, Xu Ankang will emerge and compete with him!”
“Given the original circumstances, Xu Ankang, this so-called genius, will probably be teamed up against by Xu Deming and Xu Junzhe, and be left high and dry!”
“Now Xu Deming seems to want to support Xu Junzhe!”
Xu Mo knew these things and speculated about the growth of the shared electric bike project.
Xu Mo was keenly aware that even with the situation escalating to its current state, if Xu Deming, Xu Wanting, and Xu Xuehui had to choose between him and Xu Junzhe, most of them would probably still opt for Xu Junzhe.
This was Xu Mo’s experience from his previous life.
Xu Junzhe indeed possesses deep cunning and methods, exceptionally skilled at deception!
He’s not so easily dealt with!
Of course, now, Xu Junzhe’s feelings towards Xu Deming and Xie Bingyan are genuine, without any pretense.
His affection for his elder sisters is also sincere.
Xu Mo did not deny his genuine feelings towards them.
It seems like if he hadn’t turned against them later on and undergone some new changes, he wouldn’t have confronted Xu Deming, Xie Bingyan, and others, eventually forcing Xu Manni to jump off a building!
Xu Mo decided to first deal with his electric bikes!
