Chapter 1053: Zhao Yu’s Bad Idea

Zhao Yu was lying on a large bed in one of the bedrooms of the villa. “This bed is so soft, much better than the top hotel’s!” he told Miao Ying over the phone.

“Good for you, a beautiful villa and a beautiful lady,” Miao Ying teased him. “You are really enjoying yourself. Tonight, you might as well have a good time with her, so that I can get rid of you!”

“Hey,” Zhao Yu said quickly. “I’m just joking. If I wanted to sleep with her, I wouldn’t have called you and told you about the villa. You’ve agreed that I should stay in the villa. I’ve got your approval. And, I could have slept with Cui Lizhu when you left me. But I didn’t. You should trust me!”

Miao Ying yawned wearily and said, “Okay, save your little speech. I trust you! But you know where Tao Xiang’s money came from. You can’t promise Cui Lizhu anything about the villa.”

Zhao Yu yawned. “Rest assured! I know how to handle this!” he replied.

“You know bullsh*t!” Miao Ying scolded him. “I have consulted a lawyer. If Cui Lizhu wants to bring a lawsuit, it’s hard to say what would happen. So, you’d better talk to her and help her see that this villa is not what Tao Xiang left for her, but illegal gains purchased with the money Tao Xiang stole from his victims!”

Zhao Yu scratched his head. After a few seconds he said, “Darling, I’ve got an idea. I promise you that I can solve this problem! It will satisfy both Cui Lizhu and the police.”

“Really?” Miao Ying asked, curious about Zhao Yu’s idea.

“It’s easy!” Zhao Yu said, laughing. “Tao Xiang bought this villa with ten million yuan. So, if the police want to recover the stolen money, they only need to recover ten million yuan. If I pay the victims with my own money, Cui Lizhu can keep the villa.”

“Then, I convince Cui Lizhu to sell the villa for 90 million yuan. This way we still earn 80 million yuan. I’ll make 30 million yuan when we divide it. Don’t you think this is a great deal?” Zhao Yu asked, proud of his plan.

“I really don’t know what to say about your great idea! You can’t think of a better way? After you give the victims the ten million yuan, she’ll become the legal owner. Don’t expect her to sell the villa.” Miao Ying warned him.

“I’m going to threaten her,” Zhao Yu said. “If she doesn’t sell the villa, I will tell her that the government will confiscate it if she doesn’t pay me the ten million yuan.”

Miao Ying laughed and said, “She isn’t a silly girl. If what you said is feasible, she could just sell the villa and keep the 80 million yuan for herself. Why would she share it with you?” Zhao Yu hadn’t thought of this. He had counted his chickens before they had hatched. “I don’t understand, how did you cheat ten million yuan from my dad before?” she asked him.

“Um…Um…” Zhao Yu thought for a while before answering earnestly. “I think this is what they mean when they say that great wisdom often looks like folly.”

Miao Ying yawned again. “Don’t be so naïve,” she told him. “You know the recovery law. All illegal gains of criminals should be recovered or ordered to be payback! Any gains from an investment made with stolen money are also illegal gains, which should be confiscated and turned over to the state treasury. Even the property purchased with the stolen money shall be ordered to be returned.”

“So, it’s illegal,” Zhao Yu said. “I don’t think we need to talk about this any further. It’s better if I waste my time on the Huayun Mountain Massacre Case.”

“Keep this between us,” Miao Ying said suddenly. “First of all, Tao Xiang has passed away. It will be hard to find out whether the money he used to buy the villa is illegal. Secondly, purchasing the villa through an overseas company is legal. And third, although Tao Xiang is a criminal, the legal owner of the property is Cui Lizhu. Cui Lizhu has no blood relationship with Tao Xiang. So, who really owns this villa is not such a clear matter!”

“In that case, don’t bother. Just report it as it is. Let’s see what your boss will say!” Zhao Yu replied.

“That’s what I’m thinking!” Miao Ying said. “I don’t have anything against Cui Lizhu, but I personally think that the villa should be returned! But you’re right. It’s not my place to say anything about it. Let’s follow the proper procedure.”

“Good, then you get to bed early! When you’re done resting, let’s apply for the last pending case. If we can break the Huayun Mountain case before our engagement, it’ll the best engagement gift,” Zhao Yu told Miao Ying.

“Good!” she said. “Rest well. Remember to lock the door. Don’t give Cui Lizhu a chance to take advantage of you!”

“Did you forget that Cui Lizhu is a thief? A lock can’t stop her!” Zhao Yu joked.

“A**hole.” Miao Ying swore at him, then hung up the phone.

Zhao Yu heard the sound of an adventure ending play from the system. The Kan Li hexagram ended with a 170% completion and he gained two devices as a reward. He felt like his hexagrams had stabilized recently. Although he had a Qian hexagram last time, nothing dangerous happened. He looked at his watch and saw it was almost midnight. He could start another hexagram already. So, he laid in bed, waiting patiently for the time to pass.

Zhao Yu looked at his door and felt strange thinking about Cui Lizhu sleeping in the bedroom next door. He thought that there was a high chance that he was going to get a Kan hexagram, as a Kan referred to a beauty. And once the Kan hexagram appeared, what would happen tonight?

It was midnight now. Zhao Yu couldn’t wait even one more second to start a new hexagram. However, when he saw the hexagram, Zhao Yu got really upset. I haven’t even had a few good days. What’s this for?

Zhao Yu saw that the new hexagram showing on the interface of the system was Kun Dui. What was more surprising was that the door was suddenly pushed open!

Cui Lizhu ran in quickly from outside, shouting at him, “Boss, Boss, I need help!”
