And six years is already a long time.

In fact, a person only needs one or two years to get rich.

Su Ming still decided to make things clear and said seriously, "Sis, I'll give you forty percent of the shares. I just want thirty percent."

"No, I don't want shares. Without shares, I can visit friends and relatives during holidays and mention your company. If I have shares, I can't talk freely." The lady boss had her own ideas.

Most of her friends and relatives were in the political circle, and a word from them might get her several major projects.

Moreover, with these people backing her up, others wouldn't dare to mess around.

To put it bluntly, as long as Shen Tenglong is in power, even if Shen Mengxue doesn't have her father do anything, many people will still help her out!

That's how people are—once they have the chance to climb to the top, they'll use every means to do so. The easiest way is to befriend the family of those at the top!

"We don't need to put it in the contract, but what I owe you, I'll definitely give." Su Ming believed that financial ties were the most secure!

"Alright, then." The lady boss smiled and did not insist further.

With the lady boss's support, Su Ming felt completely relaxed and no longer thought about matters between men and women. Instead, after chatting with her for a while, he went to sleep.

That night, Su Ming kept having sweet dreams. He dreamt of traveling the world with the lady boss, sightseeing by day and constantly making love to her by night, having the time of his life.

Just as he dreamt he was about to climax inside the lady boss, the phone rang.

As soon as Su Ming answered, a deep and authoritative male voice came through: "Where are you?"

Su Ming thought it was a scam call and immediately said, "None of your damn business."

With that, he hung up the phone.

The lady boss, however, was awakened. She checked the caller ID and exclaimed, "It's my dad calling!"

Su Ming was immediately shocked.

His and the lady boss's phones were the same, and they'd left them together last night, so when the phone rang, he mistakenly thought it was his own.

"No way!" Su Ming couldn't believe he'd accidentally caused trouble.

"It's over. When I get back, my dad will definitely scold me." The lady boss looked anxious. She'd quietly sneaked out last night, but now her dad had heard a man's voice on her phone!

After saying this, the lady boss, somewhat angry, said, "How could you curse at my dad? Even I don't dare to insult him."

"Sis, I didn't mean to!" Su Ming felt like he'd die of regret!

After thinking it over, Su Ming said, "How about I go back with you and explain it to your dad?"

The lady boss calmed down and said, "If you come back with me, it'll be even more chaotic. Let me handle this myself."

"How will you handle it?" Su Ming asked worriedly.

"I'll just say a friend took my phone and talked nonsense." The lady boss regained her composed and elegant demeanor.

"Will that really work?" Su Ming asked with some concern.

"Of course it will. He's my dad; I understand him best." The lady boss said seriously.

"Alright then." Su Ming couldn't think of a better solution.

"I'll go calm my dad down first. Otherwise, he'll really be angry." The lady boss said.

"Okay, I should go pick up the boss for work." Su Ming replied.

"Good." The lady boss nodded, and the two of them got up and washed quickly.

The lady boss drove back in her red Mercedes while Su Ming took a taxi back to the neighborhood, intending to drive Lin Yanan to work.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got near the car, Wu Guizhen came over and asked, "Where were you last night? Why didn't you answer my calls?"

"I had something to do and went out, so I didn't sleep at home." Su Ming replied a bit unhappily. "We're not even dating; why are you meddling in my business?"

Seeing Su Ming upset, Wu Guizhen quickly said, "I was just worried about you. Don't be mad."

"Okay, I'm not mad. I'm heading to work now." Su Ming got in the car to pick up Lin Yanan for work.

Meanwhile, the lady boss returned to an old villa in Longcheng City.

But the interior decorations were serious and rigid, yet still exuded nobility.

An elder was sitting in the living room, sipping tea.

He looked around sixty, with a full head of white hair but very few wrinkles on his face. His eyes were as bright as stars, and he exuded the aura of someone in charge, as if everyone he encountered must follow his orders.

At that moment, the lady boss entered and respectfully said, "Dad."

"Who was that guy?" Shen Tenglong asked Shen Mengxue, looking at her.

"Just a friend!" Shen Mengxue replied.

"What kind of friend can get hold of your phone so early in the morning?" Shen Tenglong demanded, exuding authority.

"Just a good friend. Am I not free to make friends?" Shen Mengxue said.

"You're my daughter, Shen Tenglong's daughter. The divorce with Zhang Biao was embarrassing enough, don't stir up any more trouble!" Shen Tenglong cared for his only daughter deeply but felt somewhat disappointed in her.

"Dad, don't worry. I won't embarrass myself." Shen Mengxue could only assure him.

"Be careful with whom you associate in the future. Know who is worth befriending and who isn't." Shen Tenglong reminded her again.

"I understand." Shen Mengxue replied quickly.

"Alright, I'm off to work." Shen Tenglong said and left the villa, where a driver was already waiting with an Audi A6.

It's hard to determine the identity of the person in an Audi A6. Someone as important as Secretary Kang might ride in one, but even a county head might as well.

Meanwhile, when Su Ming arrived at Lin Yanan's house, he noticed she hadn't come out yet, and curiously sent a message.

But Lin Yanan didn't reply, and calling her resulted in no answer either.

This made Su Ming's heart sink.

Thinking about Liu Ruili trying to kill him, Su Ming couldn't help but think of the worst!

He entered the villa and didn't see Lin Yanan on the first floor, so he quietly went up to the second.

Finding no one on the second floor either made Su Ming even more anxious, thinking, "Could something have happened to Lin Yanan?"

After all, Lin Yanan's father might be the infamous Lin Zhenbei or Li Guoqiang.

One is a big shot with a killer like Long Wu, the other a real estate tycoon who's survived all the market crashes.

In Su Ming's eyes, both were ridiculously powerful.

Especially considering that many top real estate companies have gone bankrupt, with their owners fleeing abroad and leaving unfinished buildings for the government to handle.

Yet Li Guoqiang was still thriving in his real estate business, a testament to his remarkable ability!

With these thoughts, Su Ming sped upstairs to the third floor.
